Watch Closely!

Hey guys I won’t be in town till 11 April due to a family holiday.

But I guess no one reads here anymore anyway.

Contrary to popular belief Jaimes is not dead yet, he just chooses not to post anything on his blog for the past month or so. This is to deter casual reader (i.e. those who come just to probe what I’m doing and hopefully read my thoughts and actions) and know who are his hardcore fans. Yea, those who check on this blog space regularly without fail, THANK YOU, its almost too long Jaimes have starved you of new content. 

A month seems adequate enough to weed out the fakers, and make no mistake I’ve been blogging, whether in my head on in binary form, its just that I don’t post it up.

Alot of people thought I’m not doing OK cause of the last post I had; admittedly its kinda too emo to leave anyone with, but I need my time and space to gather my thoughts and actions. I need some seclusion to distance myself with people I don’t need in my life.

I wouldn’t say I’m fine and dandy now, and no doubt about it I’ve changed. I’ve developed a lower tolerance for people who can potentially hurt me, and begun to write out those said people in my life.

As selfish as it sounds, don’t look for me unless you have something to offer me. I’ve been practicing being a dick-wad in unproductive relationships. Just as those people practice idiocracy.

I’m gonna put up the blog posts that were bumming around until now, not before I edit some time-sensitive context or whatyouhaves in the posts itself.

Enjoy the new Me.

This my dog Fluffy with his duckie. Needless to say, he almost bit my hand off when I tried to pilfer his duckie. He looks harmless but he belongs to Wimbeldon’s Crazy Gang. Gives new meaning to a Mad Dog.

Hey guys, I know I haven’t been updating recently. Me lifes’ kinda topsy-turvey recently (in a good way) so I haven’t really got the time to update (or when I do I usually forget what I wanna write down, thanks SENILITY). I’ll be posting really soon so all ya Jaimes fans out there won’t be twiddling ya thumbs any more! Don’t worry! I haven’t forgot about all of ya (all 4 of my fans)!

So I got a MSN message from Mel the other day :

“Hey Carter, just because you’re super cool I’m gonna nominate you to be the recipient of this chain blog thing I’m playing.

And you have pretty eyebrows.”

Ok, not all of it is true, cause I was banging my mouse not to roll over the advertisements in Live Messenger (I’m gonna roast alive the marketing team from Vaio/Discovery Channel/Daniel Ong), all that banging really jogged my memory, so it was kinda fuzzy; maybe I slipped some words into it..

Anyway, here are the rules I Ctrl-C from Mel’s Site

NEW RULES OF THE GAME:
- Each player of this game starts off with ten weird things or habits or little known facts about themselves.
- People who get tagged must type in a blog post of their own three weird things
or habit or little known facts as well as state this rule clearly.
- At the end, you must choose three people to be tagged and list their names.- no tag backs allowed.

Fiddily-Dandy enough, I’ll begin with three weird stuff you never known about me.

Interesting Fact #1 : I used to collect (almost all) Backstreet Boy Cds.

Yes, thats true; I sorta gave away all the CDs I owned soon after coming to church (somewhat as an act of accepting a new lifestyle, don’t ask) so there goes the evidence.

Oh wait, theres still my voice ; in fact I can sing the whole “I’ll never break your heart” song without even looking at lyrics, yes even the SPOKEN lines in the beginning of the song.

Does having a “Boyband” voice count as an interesting fact?

Interesting Fact #2 : I own all the (major) 5th Generation Console Systems.

Namely, a Sony Playstation, a Nintendo 64 and a Sega Saturn.

Of the three, I’d say my most loved was the Saturn; it gave me timeless classics like Guardian Heroes, X-men vs Streetfighter (Perfect Arcade conversion) and introduced me into the Rpg realm with games like Albert Odessy and Dragon Force (Ground BREAKING).

For my N64, I didn’t really have many games for it, although I really had a blast kicking ass in Goldeneye, the weird thing is I managed to buy 4 (four) controllers for it! I’d always pictured it was fun to have people over and play some multi-player madness like WCW wrestling or the like. I screwed around with the colors of the controllers and now they are like hybrid colors LOL! I was really bored… OK?

I didn’t really have much love for the Playstation, I really got it with my 1st paycheck cause I wanted to keep up with the hoo-hah of the supposed games that conventional people played. If I had to thank the PSone for games, it’ll be for Xenogears, Metal Gear Solid and Pro Evo soccer. Really, thats all.

Thats to prove I will out-geek most of ya out there, although I recently scavenged my N64 from a dusty corner of my house I can’t say the same for my Sega Saturn, I loaned it to my Sec school friend and never saw it back. Ever.

And my PSone acts as a heavy paperweight now.

P.S. I never completed ANY Final Fantasy. But I played 1,2,3,7,8,10,12.

Interesting Fact #3 : I play the Bass.

Nobody thought I was a musician, let alone a bassist.

Admittedly, I play quite bad. Its halfway there though. I aim to be a BAD-ASS player.

I own a Yamaha RBX-350 (I don’t know if its still in production), sometimes when I’m bored I just play it a little and imagine I was Flea from the Red Hot Chilis. Still can’t slap the bass for nuts, although I really enjoy laying down a groove with adequate drummer.

One of my wants (not top of priority though) is to get another bass, if I want to be more specific, it’ll be a Fender Pbass (like the one pictured here), sunburst would be nice, it has a nice vintage look to it and prefer a passive bass’ sound compared to my Yamaha. And also Maple fretboards FTW!

Still haven’t learnt how to read Tao-gay, and still looking for a regular band to jam with.

Nomination and Curses!

Here is my version of the curse if you don’t fufill the chain request!

“Any person who doesn’t complete the request will suffer the curse of the cross! You will be marked with a cross-shaped scar across your pinky-toe, fail at attempting cross-words, sit cross-legged on a stool, become cross-eyed, mark your personal treasure with crosses, your favorite past time will be cross-stitching and be compelled to cross heavy traffic ALL THE TIME!

That is unless you manage to convince me to cross out what I just said above.”

As for the nomination for the Chain Blog, I bestow to the following people the power to join the Chain gang!
Yong Kexin, Serene Pok and Nick Toh!

Cheers.

Jaimes has actually more interesting Facts. Some of them are rated R for retarded. 

Ok, time to make it official, I really need to make some resolutions clear and aim it to be done by year end. One of which is to pen a script. I always had this loftly ambition to write a brilliant script like Good Will Hunting and be thrust into the world of media and TV. Just to prove that actors don’t need to be dumb; its just a side of myself that many people don’t see. Maybe cause I potray too many jesting/bumbling roles on stage already.

Its kinda my curse to think much more than I should, its also my curse that I’m just afraid to release something thats not perfect or something thats not up to my own expectations.

I guess creative people has their own set of frustrations too, I don’t want to sound proud or holier-than-thou, but I think most creative people operate differently from non-creative people.

They think different, have different motivations, different responses to situations. I guess thats why most celebs in the industry sometimes have feelings of inadequecy or view a fellow performer in a competitive light.

We need a object to project or vent our frustration on, so sometimes its just not fair for some people (especially who don’t understand us) to be that object.

Sorry, its a flaw I’m still trying to correct.

Back to my lofty aspiration, I had a nice talk with Sandy on the cab home from dance class; told her if I could maybe apprentice Chingling as the an understudy scribe for church dramas. Although my storys might not be suited for the church stage, I believe I have sometime to contribute and also learn from her. I do hope she considers me for that though.

Currently I’m working on a few scripts in my own comfortable time, I’m like writing a few words every few weeks. Like JK Rowling for the Harry Potter books, I know what I want to tell to the audience, but the execution must be right. The timing must be right, the words must be right, EVERYTHING must be perfect.

Jaimes needs to put the paper to the pencil rather than the pencil to the paper.

Contrary to belief, I wanna say to anyone who approached me in the past week and guessed who Paris/Beyonce/Mary-Kate is.. I don’t wanna expose who they are but I think I will just rob myself if I do. Its a very sensitive thing, maybe I wasn’t in the right mind when I put up that post a week ago (most prob of the shock of seeing Mary-Kate in action). My hearts kinda complicated right now and I don’t wanna place my affections anyhow into a one-way relationship. Yea, but to Paris/Beyonce/Mary-Kate I say to you Godspeed in all you do, it was fun while it lasted.

I’ve always wanted to own both a cat and a dog at the same time, and if I do, I’ll name them Bowser and Kranjit. Stop giving pets stereotypical names! They have feelings you know!

(from left) Bowser & Kranjit

Look at their menacing faces! Fear the new idols of misdemeanor!!

Jaimes also wantsto own a pet turtle. He’ll name him Popsicle.
