Merry Christmas Everyone!!!

Christmas was fun as hell... Have to give it up to my aunt for throwing an amazing party at the pub . With emcee CK doing an amazing job. And not forgetting Jameson for the Mastercard dance. All i can says that you should have been there. If you were, you would understand. If you didn't , you missed a surprisingly good party at a simple pub. Who needs to head to the big clubs or beach parties? I'm not advertising but really was amazed at the amount of fun i had. And this coming from me , who has been celebrating his past 5 christmas at pubs working , really amazing. Can't wait for New Years. P.S. Singapore Idol is a joke. I really don't understand the kampong spirit thing. And they speak bad english and no help from gurmit singh who's also a joke as a host. BORING! I vote for the taufik! Huh? that was the first idol? is it? WHO CARES!

Stars shining up above you....

Another celebrity caught cheating on his wife...woah!! Mr "Lao Hu Mu" aka Tiger Woods. Hearing that news is like hearing someone telling me that the sky is blue. geez. Anyway i know its been awhile since i updated this blog. I would like to say that i've been busy working but i can't cos i haven't. Instead i've been blowing all my cash on booze and partying and i'm going broke man... Blame it on the al-al-al-al-al-al-alcohol. Sean's been reprimanding me for drinking too much too. but i can't help it... the smell of the beer,the knocking of glasses,the feeling you get after you gulp a mouthful of beer,the burping... hahaha... I speak of alochol with passion sia... But ok it's been a really busy week at the shop so had to stop the habit for a while, and last night i rewarded myself with a cocktail of vodkas,whiskys,brandy and of course beer. Think i'm still drunk...argh...
Did a really simple but cool piece for a mother of two autistic children.Its always nice to tattoo something with so much depth and meaning. Had a "Miami Ink" moment hahaha. And Jimmy came by yesterday and got to finally free hand a Bio-mech piece. something i've been craving for for awhile. But after 4hours in he looked like he just ran a marathon.LITERALLY. He was sweating like crazy. Really dripping and all.hahaha. ok have to head to work now. How come i haven't seen you come down to Yin's Place yet huh? Yes YOU! make sure you come support soon ah. OUT!

Back Aching... argh

My back's aching not due to extensive tattooing but just done with the third session yesterday for my back... Really cool Giger piece that Sean's inking. Thank God for Master Chua.
Will post the pic as soon as i'm done , still a really long way to go though.. only 10 hours in... I can't take pain for nuts so we're doing 3 hours each session... Did i hear someone shout Wussy???
Just finished a cool custom piece of a Pegasus ... Really stoked .. ok out!

Come... Grab a beer!!! I dare you... Please... thanks

Yo peeps... I've started work at another pub... Come show your love at 75 Kampong Bahru .... Thanks to all the former Nos Pub Regulars that have dropped by the past two weeks... really appreciate the support!!! Gotta head to work now... out!!!

It's only words...and words are all i have... to take your breath away...

Sumitomo DnD .... Ian and MJ at work

This was quite sometime back... Can't really see our masterpieces...but it was mostly tribals and butterflies...the funny thing is the people assigned themselves to each artist...MJ got all the dudes...and yes...I got all the CHICKS...

This I ponder....

Ok.So here's the query.Should i do a tattoo for someone even if i know that it will not look good but the client wants it in such a way for religious purposes? I was just faced with that problem. Barring a tattoo artist freedom of creativity is really not the best thing to do but i guess the business-minded side of me took over. Bad judgement? Perhaps. Should i be more concerned over my reputation ? Well i guess being Singaporean i went for the dough . I'm not saying the tattoo was badly done but the design had no room for compromise.sheesh.
But on a lighter note,Steph finally came in and finally finished the koi fish cover-up that has taken ages to complete.Took roughly bout 20 hours total but we took bout slightly over a year to finish it. that's all folks . Out!

Crapper jacks

Out with the old in with the new shit!

NOS ( numbers ) , the pub i run , will be closing its doors for good. Bittersweet feeling inside. Part of me is glad that i can have proper nights sleep the other part is sadden by the thought of seeing something i help build go down the drain.
On the bright side... i'll be at the shop more often and have no excuse not to be now.So from the 14th SEPTEMBER onwards , EMN tattoos will be opened from 2pm daily till late. that is until i find a new job. so to all the yuppies that supported NOS for this 4 years, thanks a million for the support. If you gotta go , you gotta go i guess. Maybe now i also can spend more time playing the rusty six-string that has been neglected for so long. Cheers peeps. OUT!

This i vow to do... cos my life depends on it

From today onwards i'll vow not to drink and drive. No i haven't gotten anyone killed ....yet, but i don't wanna wait for something bad to happen to make a change. yesterday i dozed off while driving and lucky for the bumpy white stripes on the expressway woke me up . I better stop this nonsense before i harm anyone including myself. If the police don't get me , i believe the grim reaper will so that's it. i'm done with this irresponsible behaviour. DONE!!!

On a lighter note, I like to wish Terrence and Valen all the best in the future. May you both enjoy marital bliss forever. And never forget who did such a wonderful job as your MC... congrats to the two lovebirds.

And lastly, Dear friends, Sean aka Master Chua will be away for two weeks in Japan (Lucky Bastard).So you can call me to make appointments and i'll arrange for your tattoos as soon as he gets back. Ciao.

Eat your heart out. Suck on your lungs. And blow on your intestines.

Happy 44th Birthday Singapore!!!Offer still stands if anyone is up for a free tattoo of the singapore flag.haha.My mind's at a blank right now so i'll just upload some photos and be outta here.Heading to the pub soon.Been really really tired recently but still trying my best to keep my head in check.Phew...
