I've got a new hobby.
It goes like this:
Step 1: Find a gorgeous, well dressed lady in a crowded 2-way corridor (eg. MRT crossline bridges or tunnels)
Step 2 : Pace beside/behind her.
Step 3: Appear confident and 'intimate'
Step 4: Look into the eyes of everyone that walk pass.
You should experience something magical.
1. All the guys will sometime or another look, glance or even peek at the lady.
2. Then they will look at you, appearing shocked or disgusted if they think she is too good or too old for you.
3. But when you throw a fierce glance back at them, they will shudder and look away. HAHA
4. For females, they'll only look if she's confident and well dressed (Step 1)
5. Then they will look at you impressed. Sometimes even checking you out.
6. Should they look at you first, I would like to congratulate you! In this case I recommend you subtly smile back.
Tips for beginners:
1. Dress for the occasion. You must never dress-down, else you will not appear convincing enough. Remember, it's all in the first impression :P
2. You may consider to wear shades. So that no one can see who/what you are looking at. Then again, asians CANNOT pull this off. Apparently you look significantly retarded to wear them indoors. I have no idea why Europeans look cool whenever, wherever with shades.
3.Walking behind is always safer, but please make sure you are taller than the lady.
Advanced strategies:
There are certain ways to look intimate, mainly to manipulate human nature and biology as well as the Singaporean culture. For more details do contact me, and we could discuss it over coffee. :)

Let me introduce you to a stranger I think you are going to like - yourself.
That's right, I know you've bee spending a lot of time with this person. Perhaps you've grown tired of him or her, even hoping to exchange your old boring self for an entirely new one. Before you do that though, consider the possibility that you scarcely know yourself.
I'm don't mean you are somehow unaware of what you like or don't
I'm saying your conscious mind is far less aware of the reasons you do things than you think it is.

Let me introduce you to this unnatural occurrence the 'residual smile'.
I thought I'd ingeniously created this term for a seemly common yet unmentioned phenomenon.
Sadly, there was already an 'official' definition as sourced from urban dictionary.com:
Residual Smile
When a group of friends is talking and a laugh occurs, while still smiling you make direct eye contact with a stranger and it quickly becomes creepy.
However, the preamble fetches far more than the given scenario; in fact it could encompass anything that gives birth to the initial laughter or smile.
Anyway, the reason I'd thought about this arose from sometime ago.
It's one of the awkward moments in life worse than laughing to yourself on the public transport while watching a comedy or listening to the Muttons.
In this case, I had just conversed with an old buddy. The residual happiness from that random emotional encounter had churned out a sorta freakish grin. Then, my eyes met the eyes of the next being. I must say, She. Was. Gorgeous! Subconsciousness, my body naturally continued to react in apparently the most unfortunate way..
Brows raised, shoulders dipped and a little misfooting. Adding on to the weird smile, my jaw dropped.
Oh my.. Just how creepy did I look?
In the moment of eye-candilicious panic attack, I regained my composure as quick as I could clear my throat and misdirected my eyes to the seemly next most attractive thing - the pillar on the left. Not all hope was lost, I gently tilted my head and gazed back in her direction. She was looking at me! I carefully nodded and flashed a cool smile.
She smiled back.
I guess I made an impression? HAHA!

I never liked cheesy,mushy or predictable stories.
But somehow I'm hooked onto this..?
I can't really make out why,
IT's probably a reflection of myself.
Mirror Mirror.

Nostalgia
Just an hour ago, I introduced Vanessa to some pokemon gametunes,, the entire collection of pokemon gametunes. It was so nostalgic I almost teared. Only a loyal pokemon player would truely understand indulge in the melodies. Especially the following,
Littleroot town - Hoenn Region's starting town. OHH how I love this song.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=im6tbN9SZXsN's Farewell - The most bitter of all Songs. Asking Vanessa to play this song on the piano :)

Just close your eyes, and let the music take you to those faraway places of your childhood, and let the slow, gentle rifts tear those memories you like salt in an old wound, knowing you'll never experience them again.
Sadness was never so happy.
Those first thirty seconds or so are the best bits, though. Something about the simple lack of complexity sends shivers down your spine.
Words cannot express the memories that have resurfaced...
