Updates
this blogskin is entitled, "chapter three"
because its my third masterpiece (not including the ugly ones).
and why "back 2 basics"?
seriously, i have got no idea.. but the
first thing that comes into my mind when
i see the black, white and grey shades
(used in the blogskin), is "back to basics".
so i've added and got rid of various
applications in this blogskin and i'll
try to update it whenever i feel like it.

Sorry! i know i've said that i'll post many many entries but because i'm quite busy and also lazy, i weren't really able to do any of em'. anyway, i doubt i'll be blogging soon too! why? for those who did't know, i'll be going into the army tmr today! haha so wish me luck and take care everyone =)
this should be my last entry till a very loooooonnnnnnnng time haha
today's post shall be a short descriptive passage of my experience to the cemetery.
Monday, 25th August 2008 "as we entered the cemetery, a stern aura wrap around us as we walked towards my granddad's tablet. as i don't burn any joss sticks or hell notes (as usual), i stood in a corner and watch the ashes dance to rhythm of the wind as the smoke tunnelled its way through the air adding intensity to the scene.."
so that's basically it. after that we headed to my great-grandma's tablet and did the same thing. as for my mum's dad, which my sis wanted to visit, we were kinda late and the (other) cemetry was closed at the time that we arrived, so i guess my sis have got to visit him another time =) so hope that you guys will like the passage.
Your view on yourself: Other people find you very interesting, but you are really hiding your true self. Your friends love you because you are a good listener. They'll probably still love you if you learn to be yourself with them.
The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for: You are a true romantic. When you are in love, you will do anything and everything to keep your love true.
Your readiness to commit to a relationship: You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person.
The seriousness of your love: You are very serious about relationships and aren't interested in wasting time with people you don't really like. If you meet the right person, you will fall deeply and beautifully in love.
Your views on education: Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.
The right job for you: You have plenty of dream jobs but have little chance of doing any of them if you don't focus on something in particular. You need to choose something and go for it to be happy and achieve success.
How do you view success: You are confident that you will be successful in your chosen career and nothing will stop you from trying.
What are you most afraid of: You are concerned about your image and the way others see you. This means that you try very hard to be accepted by other people. It's time for you to believe in who you are, not what you wear.
Who is your true self: You like privacy very much because you enjoy spending time with your own thoughts. You like to disappear when you cannot find solutions to your own problems, but you would feel better if you learned to share your thoughts with a person you trust.

caleb shocked.. ok, my mouth literally dropped for like 2 seconds when i read the results of this personality test because it was totally SPOT ON! maybe other than, "Other people find you very interesting" lol. the first personality quiz that actually send chills down my spine =x
you can either click here, or click on the "Personality Test" link at the top to do this quiz =)
first and foremost, happy national day! this was 1998's theme song if i remembered correctly. decided to post this instead of this year's theme song because i really hate "Shine for Singapore". i don't know what the hell the composer is really trying to achieve, but that song ain't neither patrioitic nor pop - it's a total disaster in my opinion ._.
so apart from that, i kinda enjoyed this year's national day telecast on the television, although i'm watching it alone because no one else is at home =/ nevertheless, programs like this will always be better than most singaporean dramas/movies that has been shown like 5 times?
anyway, i liked the hydro-technics and i really loved the fireworks <3 i seriously don't know why some of my friends find fireworks boring, because even a small one will never fail to amaze me =p
anyway since i didn't manage to catch the whole parade, i'm gonna watch the encore telecast tomorrow..
so till then, this is caleb reporting live at the thedelinquentone.blogspot.com!
haiz.. i just realised that i haven't used that word for quite some time haha, anyway, i've actually planned to pack my room today, but i guess i was too engrossed with "Summer Scent" - a korean drama - soo, my room is still hella messy..
apart from that, i've also realised that i've not been cam-whoring for quite some time.. so here's a few pictures fresh from my handphone =p
this is the 3 best ones out of the 6 pics that i took
although i know that they're not nice (at all), who cares haha and from those three photos, i chose the best one of my preference and did minor retouching and editing to it.
and this is the result
doesn't this picture look like an ad or a cd cover? haha it does for me =p
misc.: the huge red spot on my nose is healing! yay =)
Please note that the following stuff that i'm gonna blog about might be a SPOILER to the drama, "Winter Sonata". Hence, you may want to skip this post if you are watching or intend to watch the drama.
*** SPOILER ALERT ***
if you've ever watched this drama, you will know that there were actually speculation that jong-sang and yu-jin are actually half-blood related. (meaning they were thought to have the same father, but i think they are not related in the end. btw, im still downloading the last two episodes hence i don't really know the ending yet.) so the question that i had in mind when i watch that part was..
Qn: are half-siblings or step-siblings able to get married legally? (note: half-siblings are blood related while step-siblings ain't)
so before i actually reveal the answer that i found, here's another intersting thing that i read about while researching on that topic..
Quote.. "Up until recently, in certain Asian cultures, it was forbidden to marry those with the same surname regardless of relations. These clan marriages were considered incestuous... because having the same surname was considered as having the same ancestor."
hmm, i wonder what would've happened if i told my parents that my girlfriend has the same surname as me lol
anyway, the answer to the question is..
Quote.. "All states prohibit a person from marrying a sibling, half-sibling, parent, grandparent, great-grandparent, child, grandchild, great-grandchild, aunt, uncle, niece, or nephew. Some states have additional prohibitions."
7.13am, Wednesday 23rd July 2008 - this marks the time and date of my delightful experience by my tiny balcony
anyway, i've wrote a short descriptive passage about it, so i hope that you guys will like it!
"the orange beams of the sun reflected a nice colour on the greenery as a slight delicate breeze puffed around my body. however, that gust of wind started to gain more strength and then decided to introduce foreign dark clouds into the surrounding. before long, the entire sky started to paint a gloomy piece and the sun was no longer in sight. a subtle pitter-patter then started to enter the scene with drizzles accompanying it. the clouds then started brewing a sad concoction which led themselves to tears.."
ok i really don't give a damn to any gramatic errors whatsoever, cause my english ain't that good to start off with. but i just felt like typing this out and so i did =)
this was taken right before it rained, so it aint that nice.. if you find the photos ugly, just live with it. after all it's my blog lol
although i'm not a good writer nor photographer, hope you guys will enjoy this post as much as i do..
note to self: never buy kellogg's classic cornflakes again because it's not filling! (1 box = 4-5 bowls, 1 meal = 2 bowls, 1 box = 2 servings) now i remember why i stopped buying this cereal.

About Him..
he is not your typical guy who's fascinated over men chasing over a lousy spotted ball. (he doesn't even do sports,
unless you count building "castles of lego" in the air as one) hmm, his passion lies in music, arts and design,
though he doesn't really excel much in those areas and is probably what you'll call a SNAG - sensitive new age
guy a.k.a. someone whom you will call a sentimental narcissistic bastard who weeps over stuff like a tragic romance drama/movie
or a good romance novel. apart from those, he's rather introverted, especially when he's around people whom
he's not familiar with. soo, don't ever depend on him taking the first step if you wanna know him better =)
His Phrase..
"Dreaming alone does not help you achieve anything.."
