I'm gay and I buaya, you?

Buaya - Malay language for 'Crocodile'. Also used connotatively to describe cheeky men who are into sex... :)

Ping Pong controversy

Kekeke... I missed the Olympics and the men and I didn't watch the match between Singapore and China (cos I know China sure win one)... But this issue is too big to miss... :P

Apparently, the Chairperson of the Island's Ping Pong team decided to sack one of the coaches for ignoring our imported best player for the men's game to spend more time and concentrate on the imported ladies instead... thus, possibly contributing to the horrifying defeat (and the media non-coverage) of the man... I think the guy is world no.16 losing to a world no.64 or something like that...

Well, seriously, it is difficult to argue whether the coaches' decision to abandon ship and concentrate on the girls then was right... Or whether the decision and announcement of the sacking of the coach is right...

This is just a reason to generate more news and gossip and sensationalize the sport... :p

Here's Mr Brown's take on the issue...

Is it me or is Mr Brown cute? :p

12 Lotus



Hmm... I watched this some time back liao... :p

But then I guess I should write about it bah... :p

Royston Tan did it again... Another movie with a number in the title and another movie with a strong local flair...

But I think he did himself in this time...

12 Lotus is a good movie... But the timing is not good for the movie, I'd say. After 881, everyone is really expecting the same explosion of colours and songs... But 12 Lotus is more quiet. It is slightly more serious and hinges on it being a musical. But it is not really a musical... And the songs are less colourful and familiar to the younger audience... The directing is better than 881, the actors and actresses had improved also... But somehow I feel the movie carried too much of 881's ghost with it and that spoils the movie...

Essentially, the movie is about Lian Huey, a singer, who was abused by her father (who was actually protecting her at the same time) and 2 other men in her life. She was played by Mindee Ong and Liu Ling Ling and Qi Yu Wu played the 2 men who caused her suffering. I must say, I just find Liu Ling Ling wonderful... Though many say she is a little too exaggerating in her acting of the older and slightly mentally disturbed Lien Huey... I think she played the role well... I would think that it is not she who is exaggerating... It is the actors playing along side her that needs brushing up on their acting skills...

Besides carrying the ghost of 881 with it, I think the timing of the launch also affected the movie. Jack's Money No Enough 2 had just started its run and it is a very popular show... And people started to compare the 2...

12 Lotus lost in the sentimental portion of the fight... I just find it difficult to cry when I want to... The tear-inducing scenes are just too short and too shallow... Though there are good scenes...

Just too bad, there was never a complete version of the song '12 莲花' in the movie...

Well, in any case, I still think it is a pretty good movie to watch. And we should support the cute Royston... :p And hey... you know he sings very well too? He sings in one half of a song, 小雨伞, in the sound track... Here's the live Hokkien version...

Enjoy the movie! :)

Mentally tired

Hmm... Do you sometimes get mentally tired out? And you wish everything will stop?

Last night, I was in the chatroom and the guys were having fun disguising as 'bears' talking to one another and I was trying to guess who is who... when suddenly, it just popped up... The thought of me getting very mentally tired out... I dunno what I was doing... And then I remembered my friend, AB, who blogged about feeling on the outside when you are inside. No, not talking about sex lah... But talking about the feeling of not knowing what your friends are talking about, about the feeling of not being involved in their activities, about not being involved in their conversations etc...

I know I am asking for too much... The guys are great! They had tried to involve me in a lot of activities, especially NFB... But somehow, last night, I just suddenly felt AB's feelings very strongly. I just quit the chatroom thereafter... Usually, I am one of the last to log off, leaving somewhat unwillingly, when it is really late and time for me to sleep... But I just feel the need to log off suddenly last night... CB was worried about me and asked me if I was ok... I guess I didn't realise that what I did might hurt people...

And so, I wanna apologise...

Anyway, I almost didn't get to sleep last night... I was tossing and turning in bed. A lot of stuff went through my mind... I was wondering what happened and why did I gave up quite a lot of other friends, whom I had made through years of being in the hobbies together, and why did I ignore my hobbies and no longer spends as much as time on my hobbies as I used to... And I began to think of my friends and their relationships with their families, particularly with their mothers and I began to ask why was I no longer spending as much time with my family as before...

I dunno... I guess I am a little mentally tired out... Blown out, I guess...

Sorry, the first post after I had not posted for some time and it had to be such a post...

Thanks for reading...

Sunrise...

I had been playing overnight mahjong for some weekend nights... And once, I managed to drive back since the session ended at 5am, to catch sunrise from my flat...

I cannot remember why I have my camera with me that day before... But I had it with me and so I decided to snap a few pics of the sunrise from the western end of the Island... Which really, is not the best place to catch a sunrise... :p

But... since my flat faces the east and southeast direction... The scene still looks pretty good... :)







It certainly is refreshing to be up and about so early... With the cool breeze etc... But overnight mahjong sessions are really tiring... :p And it is not easy to sleep in the day time... I usually fall asleep about 7am and will wake up by 11am or noon... :P Very difficult to recover from the lost of sleep... And boy dun like it at all... :p

No wonder my eyebags are getting worse...

Exhibitionism - Singapore style...

Hmm... After viewing the Japanese exhibit and complaining about Singaporeans being shy about exposing themselves earlier, I came to discover some Singaporeans sharing their fun time with the whole world at xtube... :p

And well, well... It seems like Singaporeans are not as shy as they are thought to be... :p

Here are some of the Singaporean accounts:

Fate

The Korean movie, that is... ;)




http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dTWFxEAm5Ak

The movie stars my all-time favourite Kwon Sang Woo and my used-to-be one-time favourite Song Seung Heon... Both are gangsters who used to be good friends and became sworn enemies.

On the whole, except for the time when I was looking at my cute Kwon, I was just totally confused by the Korean names and plot... There are lots of betrayal and fighting and in my opinion, a little messy... And halfway through, I almost fell asleep... If not for the fact that I do not want Boy to mock at me for wanting to watch this show but ended up sleeping, like he did, I would have fallen asleep... :p

Although filled with action, I find the story slow and draggy... The ending is a little silly too... A little expected... Though also unexpected... All I can say is, Don't get involved. Don't join a gang... There are no good endings... And ANYONE can betray you... In the end, many a times, it is a matter of 鹬蚌相争, 渔翁得利...

Anyway... If you are attracted to watch the show because of the poster, be prepared to be disappointed... The actors dun get to strip... Song had some shirtless scenes once in a while... But Kwon only got to show off at the end... With almost everyone else, as a flashback... And it is for so short a time... :p

And watch out for the cutie, Ji Seong... :p

Foot reflextology

I enjoy... err... no... that will be an understatement... I LOVE foot reflextology...

In fact, I think I mentioned before, I constant buy packages for foot reflextology... And I have a regular therapist... Most of the time, I rather have him handle my foot... Mainly it is because the guy manages to spend more time and force on the points on my foot that made the process enjoyable.

I used to find this guy who is stockish... He had the biggest biceps amongst the many therapists in the shop... I noticed it after a while... He's cute and has a nice body shape... But the most important thing is, he knows where I enjoy being pressed and he happily obliges... The bad thing is... He is always sms-ing when performing the reflextology session... So, I stopped asking for him... Anyway, the shop is a proper foot reflextology place... So no point having a therapist that you wanna have sex with, working on you...

So, I began to search for a new therapist and I managed to find one soon... The 2nd therapist I went for, reguarly, was a skinny older man... His skills are good and he also made me relaxed enough during the session to fall asleep... :p I signed many packages under his name...

But... recently, I started going to the shop on days when he is on leave or off... Why? Because there was this new guy in the shop who had massaged me earlier on and I think I had a 'crush' on him... LOL!

He is now my new therapist... as I will sill try to visit the shop on the days when the previous therapist is not in... :p This new guy is a nerdy looking skinny young chap who cracks lousy jokes... But he has the most wonderful arms I had ever seen... Whenever he presses into my foot, I can see his arm muscles rip and twitch and his biceps will be 'gekked' into solid solid and mind you... though he is skinny, his arms are BIG and muscular and powerful... I just love and enjoy watching his arms as they go about the business of pressing around my feet...

And he likes to unbutton 1 button of his polo-tee uniform, thus when he bends over to massage the upper parts of the leg, I can look in and see his chest and abs... And it is making me very uncomfortable... I really really, realliiieeeee....., want to extend my arms and touch him, all over... :p

And I had been trying to find his nipples whenever he bends over, allowing me to see his bod... I had not been able to spot his nipples... I think he either has the sunken nipps or his nipps are so small, I can't spot them...

Nevertheless, that gave me something to do besides falling asleep during the reflextology session... :P

Hmm... Feel like seeing my cute nerd again... Kekeke... I wonder if I can ever tell him I like his arms and I wanna feel them... :P I think he is straight... :P

Thanks for reading...

Which is worse...

See for yourself...





Dun argue whether the pics are posed or not... They are most likely posed pics anyway... But which situation is worse in your opinion??

Personally... I think the girl with her gay boyfriend situation is the worse of 2... Maybe it is how I am brought up in this society... I always think that we must always be fair to the female gender...

And maybe that is why I dun like the idea of gay (and some say they are bi) men dating women or marrying them and STILL play around with men outside...

It is one thing that they are cheating themselves and creating depressive situations for themselves, it is another of them cheating on their wives... whose worse nightmares would be their husbands being successfully seduced by other WOMEN... Imagine their hurt when they find out their husbands are actually and preferring fucking men or worse... be fucked by men...

BUT... No judgment here... Just a personal thought... Stories of fathers (especially the young ones) being fucked does turn me on though... :p

Happy National Day! :)

Hmm... Somehow I am feeling less and less patriotic as I grow older...

Think it is due to work stress and the inflation... And also realising that the policies of the government is not being very friendly to single gay men...

But... On this day of the year, whatever patriotic feelings in me will be aroused...

And it had been a tradition for me to tune in to watch the National Day Parade... And then look out for the fireworks from my living room window...

Mind you... I stay at the western end of the Island... ;p But still as my living room faces the east/south east direction, the fireworks can be seen... :)

Happy National Day! Ahhh... Can enjoy the holiday on Monday... :p

Olympic Games



Ooo... The Beijing Olympic Games are starting today...

And I have no idea why I am even remotely exited...

I think the Chinese publicity are doing a good job to get me exited about the Olympic Games... I am basically almost a non-sports person... :p

I think I will only be interested to see the diving competitions and the synchronized swimmings... The diving competitions are when I can see nice bods and nice front packages... Kekeke... The synchro? Well... They are just too nice to miss... :p

Maybe I can throw in a few pics off the net later on the diving... kekeke...

Oh... By the way... Is it just me or is this Liu Xiang fella from PRC quite cute? Ignore his not so good textured face lah... LOL... Look at his legs! *Yum*...





And they call me a closeted chaser... Kekeke... :p

I wonder if our little Island with her imported talents will ever win another medal again... :p

Good luck to that!

Enjoy the games... :)

Image makeover time?

Well well...

I never thought I need to do this...

Apparently, I had gone past the stage where people look at me and ask if if I am of a younger age than I actually is... Up till last year, I still get queries if I just reached 30 or 31... The numbers are not much less than my actual age, but still younger...

Unfortunately... The past few months had seen people thinking I am either in my mid to late 30s or even worse *gasp* that I am in my 40s!!! *double gasp*

I have no idea what changed... Is it that I had put on weight? Is it the lack of (good) sleep due to stress and depression? Is it due to me losing hair? Or is it really due to what I wear??

Ever since dear friend, B, was made to go through an image makeover. everyone had been swooning over him... Kekeke... And indeed, he had looked many many times more attractive than before... In fact, there is a memorable incident when all of us know and some of us witness of how he scored almost immediately, while not intentionally hunting... :p

Maybe it is time for me to change and have a makeover... Throw away all my 'uncle' clothes (Ya ya, SS, I KNOW the clothes I have are uncle...) and buy new, trendy (and yet suitable for work) ones to wear... Boy already complaining I am looking older and older...

Not to mention, really get my fat ass to work and go swim during the weekends and to actually get a gym membership...

Who can I trust to advise me on the makeover? Maybe I can start with the other members of the Gang of 4... :p

But... Do I really need to do it? Hmm...

Ps: I tried to keep a mustache but the guys told me it made me looked even older... Gosh... What is wrong with me? :p

Being naked with friends

Just how comfortable are you being naked?

I dun think I am talking about the level of comfort this guy has... His other videos can be seen here. That will be exhibitionism... A topic for another day... Anyway, I wonder how to download them... :p Anyone has? :p

Ok... back to topic... The guy in the video is too comfortable with being naked... :P

What about being naked in front of other people at a place you are expected to be naked, like shower rooms and changing rooms? Regardless of whether the other people are also naked or not? Or at least be topless with friends or other people looking around?

If someone got topless or naked in front of you, will you be shocked? Will you wanna look? Will you think it is a big hoo-ha? And I mean in places like the shower room, in a flat, in a changing room etc...

I talked about public nudity some time back when I realised I was the only one who went naked and showered without doors closed after a badminton session with the guys...

And I was still quite bugged about it... :p

I remembered when I was younger, I was extremely shy about going topless, let alone naked in any situation, other than when I was alone, for showering... I never had swimming lessons when I was young and so I never had a chance to go topless outside the bathroom...

When I was in secondary school, I remembered being very very embarrassed about going about in an underwear for a medical examination... And I was very very conscious of my own body during my first swimming lessons, which my school conducts for all male students.

It was only after the first couple of lessons did I get comfortable with going topless infront of my classmates... But I still remembered the awkwardness of showering nude with them... Few did that and I avoided that too... Afterall, I was with hair already and not all had hair yet... And boys being boys, they WILL talk if they find out...

And being sexually matured, I was easily aroused... And I had been attracted to the male sex by then... I remembered a classmate got hard or semi-hard while showering with me!... I was too embarrassed to look for too long... And I think he was embarrassed too... But thereafter, sometimes I really wondered if he is gay... :p

Anyway... This shyness of showing my body went on... Even in my JC days... I will simply put on my shirt on over my sweaty t-shirt after PE lessons... Until a point when I cannot take the heat and my own smell... That's when I will go to the changing room with my classmates and began to get used to stripping down to the bare essentials only with people I know around... Previously, it was just strangers at swimming pool toilets...

Then came NS... Where I had NO CHOICE but to shower with all the company mates... And everyone had to get used to everyone's nakedness... That's when I was able to control my urges better... i.e.preventing erections in public... :p But sometimes, it is difficult... especially when a cute one was strutting in front of you naked or you saw someone obtaining semi-hardness... :p

I remembered once when I feel an erection coming and I had to rush to the toilet cubicle to jerk off... I had to exit the cubicle with a semi-hard dick, though... cos I took too long to cum and everyone will be done with the showering soon... I am sure some guys will know I was jerking off... :p

The same thing happened again once... when I was having my Guards conversion training exercise and I saw 2 of my instructors butt naked showering with us... Luckily, by the time I cummed, I was alone in the shower... Cos the cock was still in a semi-hard state... :p

Anyway... what I was saying is that NS trained me to be comfortable being naked in front of friends... And the rest, they say, is history...

And this reminds me of something...

Ever since the gay spas were being introduced and local guy population start to get comfortable with them, they began to compete with one another for a bigger market share. But no matter what group(s) they are targeting, they will bound to have a night reserved as a 'skin' nite... Meaning the customers will wander around the spa without a towel... i.e. naked.

And being comfortable with being naked, I enjoyed these skin nites... And I noticed something... Half of the guys who patronize these nites are not really comfortable being naked... They will be walking around covering their dicks and balls with their hands!... Kinda defeats the purpose of walking around and letting your bird bird and balls dangle freely... Of course, that also means others cannot see what you are hiding... :p I remembered a particular cute ex-celebrity was walking around covering his jewels at the old Rairua... :p

If you are not comfortable with being naked, then why go to a skin nite? *roll eyes*

And I am saying this to bring up a funny incident... I went to a particular spa's skin nite once and I bumped into a SS there and he told me a friend, TS, was also in the spa. I didn't think much about and went about my business. I managed to bump into another friend, GE and we hugged and talked... Nothing much... just 2 friends hugging and talking... Everything's normal... except we were both naked... No big deal, right? And I went on exploring... Soon, in the dark, I saw a familiar body size walking towards me... I stopped. I knew who he is and was waiting to give him a hug. He, TS, also stopped and was I can see him straining to see who I was, since I had stopped walking towards him and was looking at him. Suddenly, I think he had made out who I was and I was going to hug him when he let out a scream and ran away, quickly down the stairs, according to SS, who saw him at the end of the flight of stairs. Apparently, TS was shocked as he was uncomfortable being naked in front of friends... He went off very shortly thereafter... TS was still red-faced and red-eared when I mentioned this incident later...

It was so strange... Will you be so shy being naked in front of a friend? A gay friend? At a place where the men are there are all gay men? At a time when every one of those gay men are supposed to be naked? If you are shy, why be there? :p

And what's with the shock reaction?... Kekeke... TS is so going to kill me for writing this down... LOL!

I remembered a friend, NJ, who met me for dinner and asked where we can go to continue talking after dinner. I suggested 'Church' and he agreed, only to realise it was skin nite when we entered the venue... We had no choice but to chat at the tv lounge naked. Though it was his first time, he was comfortable... being naked, being naked with other people around... And most importantly, being naked in front of a friend, me... :)

Talking about going around naked reminds me of a friend, R, whom I met at Rairua's skin nite. R is another guy who is very comfortable with his own body and displaying it. We had a good time at the skin nite then and we exchanged numbers. R later invited me and a couple of friends to his place to spend a whole day of being nude. We ate in the nude, do housework and watch tv in the nude etc... He did, however, also arranged for massages and someone to bring food for us... It was fun... Especially since the massuer enjoyed the sight of seeing so many nude guys in the same room and gave me a prostrate massage while sucking off another guy after finishing massaging R... LOL!... R was talking about organizing more sessions in the nude... But unfortunately, R got himself attached shortly thereafter... :p I will probably talk more about R in another post later... ;)

These friends are sure very comfortable with being naked with one another... :p

And these guys are very comfortable with their nudity in public... :p

Why can't we be like them? :p

Ok lah, enough talk about being naked... :p In short, I am comfortable being topless or naked in (semi-)public now... BUT... I am still somewhat shy about even bring topless in front of my family members... Dunno why... :P

What about you? Are you really comfortable being naked in front of strangers? Straight men? Gay men? All friends? Gay friend? Straight friends? Family? What about just being topless?

Thanks for sharing and reading... :)

Money No Enough 2

After 10 years since the first 'Money No Enough', '钱不够用', director Jack Neo finally came up with this part 2 of the highly successful movie... And the trailer had been making many people look forward to the movie... :p

And the critics and media had been taking both ends of the critic spectrum ever since...

Some love it... Some hate it... Their reactions had been very extreme...

Those who hate the show said that the plot is old and the predictable and the trick of using dialect is no longer Jack's advantage. Some even mentioned that Jack tried too hard to play the sympathy card and the second part of the movie was overly sentimental (well, can't find the right word to replace 煽情)...

Those who love it, of course, played on dialect and the many jokes poking the Singapore government...

I must say, I tend to find the jokes and sarcasm on the Singapore government a little too much... Maybe it is getting old... Or maybe it is the National Day period and the patriotism spirit is sub-consciously arising... Whatever... :p And I love the emotional and sentimental part of the movie.

This movie is not all fun and laughter all the way... The second part of the movie is rather sentimental and is almost guaranteed to make you cry... I cried like crazy... :p But Jack is good as he had placed some well timed jokes in-between the sentimental and emotional scenes and you dun feel too heavy emotionally throughout the second part of the movie...

The only bad thing I wanna comment would be the acting skills of some of the actors... While Henry Thia finally got a role more suitable for his language and acting ability, the same cannot be said of the supporting roles... Jack's wife might be a minor local celebrity but that does not mean she can really act... The girl playing his daughter is worse... Though I must say her bad acting made her character more irritable... which actually works...

Lin Ru Ping and Lai Meng, playing Henry's wife and mother, respectively, are the better actresses... In fact, Lai Meng will make you really think she really is so old and having all the old people illness... A sharp contrast to her role in Jack's last movie 'Ah Long Pte Ltd'... I particularly love a scene where she acted against Mark Lee about her bra... Really made me laugh till almost cry... :p

Overall, I think this movie is great... It makes you think a lot as you leave the theater... which is what I think the director wanted... Go catch the movie before everyone around you started talking about it... :)

Done... :p

Well... All thanks to this video... I ended 12 days of no cum... :p

The ending was not spectacular, like the last time...

So, I think I will not endure the next time liao... :p

Labels:

12th day

Heh heh... Today marks the 12th day of no ejaculation... And that means I had broken my previous record of most number of days without cumming at 11.5days... So far so good... I am so tempted to go do something about it after the 10th day but I wanted to try to break the record... :p Now I wanna cum... But it feels so not worthed it to jerk it off on my own...

But then again... From tomorrow onwards, I will be starting to get busy with work again... So... I think I will likely be getting off tonight... In case I feel horny at work... Then that will be distracting... :p

The Mummy 3



Well... Despite my protests, I was still being dragged to watch 'The Mummy 3 Tomb of the Dragon Emperor'...

I had mentioned that I believed that in a curse of the Mummy, brought on by the stupid movie series... But as Little Motivator commented, I should use the opportunity to break the curse...

So... since technically, it is not an Egyptian mummy we are talking about in the movie... Here's wishing that the curse will be broken! :)

Basically this movie is about explorer Rick O'Connell, played by Brendan Fraser again, being tricked to go to China and together with his wife, son and brother-in-law, woke an evil Chinese emperor up from his curse and thus finding it necessary to find a way to stop his evil-take-over-the-world plan...

I must say... Brendan Fraser is not young... But he certainly is too young looking to be the father of well grown up Luke Ford... They look kinda more like brothers with a bigger age gap... Anyway... I never realised that Brendan Fraser has a nice body... Kekeke... There's a scene where he has to go topless... *swoon*... :p

Ok... Enough about the white cast... The Asian cast... Hmm... First thing first... Hollywood should seriously consider paying to have REAL Chinese speaking actors and actresses play roles of the Chinese people... It is really weird that a Chinese watching the movie will have to rely on English subtitles to find out what the supposedly-Chinese-speaking actors or actresses are talking about... Not because the movie goer has a poor command of the Chinese language but because the actors/actresses cannot speak the language... *roll eyes*

The general, Ming... played by ABC Russel Wong dun really get to speak but when he does, he speaks with a terrible slang... And Michelle Yeoh... My goodness... is another one you need to rely on subtitles to find out what she is talking about... Well.. I understand that she had improved... but... Oh... She should have been given credit for this show... Too bad she was never credited... And same thing for Anthony Wong, who played a general plotting to revive the emperor and a very familiar-looking lady who played his faithful sidekick... Asian marketing people should have credited them... They did for Edison Chen's 1 second role in 'The Dark Knight'... :p Why not these?

Anyway... Jet Li's performance for the show is really... err... never mind... :p They could have find someone else to play the emperor... But since fight scenes are needed... Oh well... :p

Overall, I will think it is a watchable movie... Quite entertaining... But please dun bring logic into the theatre... Watch out for a comical scene involving skeletons... That one really brought me laughing loudly for quite a while... kekeke...

Having said that, I certainly hope there will not be a 'Mummy 4' movie... :|

Need motivation?

Well... If my bonus is not paid out today, I think I will need some motivation... :p

So... Do you need some motivation?

I read someone's blog and I got these 'motivational' posters (or otherwise known as demotivational posters... kekeke...) from this site... Here are some I thought are quite 'motivational'... Enjoy... ;p





















Oh, btw, you can make your own posters too... Try this site and show me your posters... :)

The X-Files - I Want to Believe



Hmm...

I am not a fan of the X-files... Mainly because I am not someone who watches English dramas and serials on television... But the concept of the X-files quite attracts me and so I watched the last X-file movie... which was like a few years back...

This new X-files movie still stars David Duchovny as Fox Mulder and Gillian Anderson as Danan Scully but the 2 of them had visibly aged quite a bit... :p Though I must say that David Duchovny still looked pretty attractive... ;)

The story started with a missing FBI agent and eventually unfolded to a gay couple and a pedophile. Makes you wonder what's the big fuss about a missing FBI agent when thousands of ordinary citizens go missing in the USA... And also... They seem to try to associate the gay couple with the pedophile... Which I dun like the idea of...

This X-file movie is quite dumb, if you ask me... It can be a little confusing as it was not properly explained why the operation on one of the gay couple (which is what the movie is all about) had to be conducted... And it is a little confusing on the missing people part... You tend to not know who is who after a while... :p

In any case, the ending might be crap to some people... It is rather abrupt, if you ask me... And the director seem to want to let the audience decide for themselves whether they themselves want to believe... :p
