Yo, just back from my uncle's wedding dinner at Mariott Hotel. It has been some years since I last went to one. Actually I agreed to go to this one after reading Sirong's blog regarding Desmond's wedding dinner, where Sirong was invited to be a part of the 'buddies party' to help him out. I actually went for the sake of gettin to know how a weddin dinner should go about. I mean, perhaps, although of a rare possibility, maybe someday, I will be happily settling down. Most probably I think, I will be asked to be part of the buddies' party of my bros and friends. Imagine the 7seas, I will have 5 bros to help out! That's why I have better be ready to help out, so as to make my brothers enjoy their wedding dinner (to me it's seems more like a show). Hee..brothers, if u are reading this, you betta get my hint. I am not sure if any other people will want to enlist my help, but if it's within my means and my ability, I guess if it includes a free treat at the wedding dinner, no problem. And of course the red packet will be there, so don't worry guys! Hahahaha. Anyway, with my brother's phone cam, I had taken quite a no of photos of my relatives, but unfortunately, I have no means of putting them onto the computer, otherwise I will be glad to show you here.
I read Charles's blog last night. Seems like he has got something to say about me again. Yeah, I agree I am some sort over-demanding, it's just in my blood so as not to lose face! hahaha. Anyway, regarding the cake incident, probably I ought to apologise for my planning blip. Usually I wouldn't have not informed people over the email. I did tell Qinyi I will bring a cake, but I forgot to remind him to remind the participants for a surprise for the birthday boy. How I wish I had an advisor who could tell me "you should have done this, or that". Anyway, things are over now. Every mistake made is a lesson learnt. I will take it as another enriching experience, so hopefully the upcoming birthday celebrations will be much better.
My parents just told me that due to a last min change by my grandmother, this Sun we had to go sweep my granddad's tomb. I was loss for words. I mean, tomorrow the guys will be staying over at my place. Sun morning we are supposed to play soccer. So how am I supposed to go sweep the tomb.....arghzzzzzz.... being stuck in the middle is really a difficult feeling. Anyway what I want to say here is that I have gone over my usual limits in helping people. Really, if Chris was reading this, I have to say "Sorry, but all this while I have been doing much for you. I did it for you because I wanted to be around for you. Usually I don't do that much for my friends unless I know there will be some benefit, but this time I feel that I have done much much more. I hope you understand why sometimes I feel irritated seeing you people, and thus the dull look, the sianz face." Being a leader is really difficult. And when people really look up to you, any big or small thing they will like to consult you. I really dunno how come people like asking me for my opinions or for solutions, am I that good a person? I think most of you are really much more talented and knowledgeable than me, it's just that most of you dun really make an effort to think , or dun want to take a risk to decide on your own. You need assurance, and that assurance you would like it from someone of great influence, great thinking, or just simply trustworthy....I guess I dun quite fit the bill, really...
Just tidied up my room, removed the smelly stuff(yes, my brother's blanket and bedsheet). I just hope tomorrow things will be right. I really do hope so.
Again, returning to the topic on marriage, it has made me wonder if having a girlfriend is that great a feeling.... having someone to love you sounds great. Doesn't having someone to love sounds even nicer? Haha. I dun understand all these. My thinking is, love is decent, innocent, neutral but the strongest power human being can harness. Love doesn't take sides, which is why you have got gays, lesbians around. Love is not a matter of how much you can offer to the person you love, it's a matter of how much you want to bond with the person. Ultimately, love bonds all into one. Love is a power infused in our genes. When you say the ultimate aim of a gene is to replicate itself so as to stay existent, I would say love is the means it uses to succeed in this aim. Yet the contradiction I have here is, love itself is neutral! I guess this could only mean one thing, either my idea of love being neutral is flawed, or the evolution theory is wrong. What do you think then? I guess you are thinking "What the f*** are you trying to say? Why can't you just shut up?"
If your reaction is as above, this is why I choose to keep quiet most of the time. Looking sian is the best way to avoid people from talking to you. Only genuinely concerned people would ask you why you look sian....so you see, this is my way of testing how much I have bonded with each and every of you..
Hahaha. I should be enrolled into Hougang Chalet...nothing I say is of logic now. What to do? When you are hit deeply in your heart, you just want to find any way to make the pain go away. Of course, since it's in your heart, nothing you do outside the heart will make it go away....
Sigh....

I've just had a hectic week which will finally end tomorrow in style (I hope). Many of the regulars will receive their bonus letters which I had a big hand in preparing and administering, but there have been plenty of hiccups along the way. Sighh..let's hope tomorrow I will be able to sort out the last of the hiccups and end the week in style.
I went far far out to Clementi to shop and collect an auction item. Luckily I had a smooth trip as my boss was willing to send me to Choa Chu Kang MRT on his car. Where else can you find such a nice boss? And I didn't mention the word 'CCK MRT'. I only mentioned about going to CCK and Clementi. On the way we talked about me and the people around me, my new school, etc... I got to Clementi as predicted, 7.30pm, even though I left camp 1 hr later than expected. Well I got the item at a $5, and not to waste the trip fare, I went shopping at Clementi Centre. In fact I intended to eat there, but the market was pretty much different from the bustling and crowded memories I had since visiting there in JC1! Haha. In the end I had economic beehoon and sat beside an old man. Before eating I was fishing in Comics Connections trying to decide what to get for my 2 councilmates who are celebrating their birthdays this weekend. Given a budget of $20, I had to endure some heart pain because I tot the gifts I chosen weren't really that nice...but I suppose it's the thought that counts...besides they should understand how poor a person I am...
Friday my uncle is getting married. Wow! He isn't very old than me (i think he 28.), yet he's getting married liao. Soon people will also start asking if I have a girlfriend or what, cos I am getting 21st this year! Luckily I don't look like 21.....so still can hang on for a while....haha.
Saturday there won't be a big match but the guys have decided to come to my home eventually. I haven't really got a program to entertain them...and worse still I have yet to start clean up the mess in my room. How I wished I had a better brother to help. Or at least a girlfriend who can help out abit. Or given the desperate situation I am in, anyone la. I think if my brother wasn't around, I would never have this stupid mess to deal with. Maybe I will know the answer by 22 Apr. He will be in Tekong for months from that day onwards..
Today I saw scores of good looking, cool girls on the train and at Clementi. Eye contact always make me feel awkward....aww. What to do! What about if some guys look at you too? How will you guys feel? Will you feel jealous if the other guy was much more cuter, more more handsome, or much more hunky? Will you feel happy if it was a really cool girl....
Man, go shopping alone always bring me such reflections, and that is why, I said before, I dun like to go shopping or even go out. Anyone with the same feeling?
Just now online, Jason Lee said he felt that I was a completely different person when I write and when you see me personally...well, it is perfectly true...my understudy also complains I rarely smile in person but when I write I sound so friendly!
What to do? If you have read all my blogs, and if you see me in person, you will get a shock....haha (maybe no longer, now that I have pointed it out). I still think the nicest people around are Wenhui and my brother, Jinki~~~~ Miss them so much sia...

Wow, one week has passed by since I last blogged. Haven been really online much, let alone write blogs.
I really got nothing to say. Maybe it's because I am quite tired at the moment. I was on duty yesterday and today the whole day was nerve wrecking, with so many things to be done and many of them uncompleted as yet. I wonder if I can survive this week unscathed?
Upcoming this weekend there are many activities. Firstly, on Fri there's a councilmate's birthday party. Won't be going for that one as I have been angered by this councilmate's incessant demands for a birthday present. The present will go, yes, but via post. On Saturday there's another birthday party too. This time of another councilmate, and this guy is much of a pal than the previous. Although we don't see eye to eye at times, I feel that this person is at least witty, nice, easy going and quite talented as well. Perhaps it's just a personality differences that cause us to differ from each others' way of thinking, or maybe it's just me who is over-sensitive. Nonetheless, the party I will have to dig my time to attend even though the chaps will be at my home this Sat for a last gathering for the year. By 'last' I mean (I know I repeated many times) my dear friend Chris will be departing to Taiwan for a year. Soon most of my pals are gonna clear leave and perhaps we may have less opportunities to get together due to different schedules. NSFs in the same unit largely have the same schedule, but of course ORD personnel have their own agenda and thus a different set of schedules. Fortunately, over the years I stayed here, I had established myself as a very organised person, which the chaps know. Therefore, it's always easy to organise things when they know how I go about organising it. Anyway, I will take 2-3hrs off from the gathering to attend the party and hope that someone will drive and perhaps send me back on the way..haha. Fat hope. How I wished I had passed the last test and maybe I could have just rented a car instead to drive myself to and fro.
These days I have been pondering about myself. Many things have not gone smoothly lately. I am unsure if it's my attitude or if it's the way I do things. How I wish there was someone there to correct me, to reprimand me, or to at least tell me where I am wrong. In the unit, most of the chaps give me too much respect. Luckily there's Aloy around, who has always been a consistent encouraging figure to me. I enjoy listening to his explanations even though sometimes I think otherwise. Of course different ideas benefits a discussion and this is what I like about him. Moreover his ideas are mostly quite logical, and many a times without him pointing out where I have thought wrong, I may have erred more and more. Another of this great character is Junkai, my 7sea brother. Having experienced and seen many things, he's always giving me great guidance. Well, maybe as time goes by, I will realise that many people have been giving me great ideas. It could be because I rarely care about what others say, and hence forgetting what ideas they have came out with. However I dare say I do listen, and I listen to every word closely. Maybe it's just sometimes I am preoccupied with my own ideas, my own thinking that I downplay others' inputs and exaggerate my own ideas' merits.
Hey, those reading the blog, don't get jealous if I didn't mention you here regarding this! I mean there's only so much I can write without boring you (haha, I know it's already quite long winded and boring). I do put most of you into my heart, with sincere gratitude!
Let's hope I can slowly change to a better person....

Today is a really bad day. Wasted a whole day off, less the beauty sleep I got (slept like a log till 10am), nothing went right for me. The main culprit of course was my 2nd attempt at the driving test. Was pretty alright in the warm up but started with a gross mistake in my first item in the course - vertical parking. I did it FOUR times before I succeeded in getting my car into that parking slot...damn. A poor start that was confidence shattering. The next item was the reverse and turn (can't rem exactly the term) and I hit the kerb while turning out....curse it... with the two poor starts i had lost all my concentration and the rest I shan't relive it in my memory. I guess I broke the record among my friends! FORTY SIX points plus 1 immediate failure (undue care prior to lane change) oh man, what less can you ask for?
Yesterday was much more fun... after work I walked along with Wenhui back to the rear gate. He told me he was going to the pasar malam as he was finally free, so I asked him if I could join in. Haha. Another 'date' huh! I parted with him from the rear gate as I wanted to go swim, and also I had to go Chris' home to help solve a computer problem. Yeap. The swim was ok, 25 laps. Fixing the computer took me another hour. Then I cycled back home and bought fishballs as instructed by my mother, but when I reached home she had yet to reach home! So there was no dinner and I thought I could fix it but there wasn't enough time to fix cos Wenhui said we could meet after he finished watching Feng Shen Bang, and some washing up. In the end we met up at McDonalds around 8.30pm. Of course I did ask Chris to join us during the course of the repair...he had his dinner real fast..and came down straight...haha. We had a great time at the pasar malam. Some stops we made 1. the pirated jerseys stall - oh man, i wished i could buy one or two, $15 each. 2. auction stall - some 'lucky' items were on auction and the slashing of the prices was so fake that i thought the items on auction were all cheap stuff from China...3. Handphone covers stall - A whole slew of covers but none suitable for us.... 4. medical ointment stall - woah. this one we spent nearly 1 hr watching a supposedly martial arts display...it was a farce as in the end it was a sale gimmick for medicatd oil...Chris got a dab of it on his hand and he said he felt it was good....$10 for 1 bottle, what do you think? So in the end we parted at the overhead bridge after Chris tried to persuade us to accept his treat but to no avail..haha. Sorry to Chris.. And I went with Wenhui to the supermarket...spent 30mins there...it was certainly a great time to spend...too bad for them cos they had to go back camp early the next day, sighhhhhhhhh...... but fret not, we gonna go Wenhui's home on Wed!
ehhhhhh, so another off day gone and i only have 1 more off day left. i intend to use it on my next driving test (Apr 27) so i guess this month will be a lenghty wait. Anyway for me now, each day passed is one day nearer to ROD...heee.....i do hope things will change for the better as the days go by. This year won't be exactly a good year by chinese beliefs cos this year i 'offended' the Tai Sui god (due to my chinese zodiac sign) so probably i just gotta work harder and not be complacent to achieve my goals this year...
Here I provide you the 10 not-to-dos if you dun want to be a failure.
YOU WILL BE A FAILURE IF YOU ARE
1. OVERCONFIDENT
- Never underestimate any task/test/exam put to you.
2. INSOLENT
- Being rude to anyone is a great way to find yourself isolated without any potential aid when you need it
3. LAZY
- Failure to prepare, practise and revise means a sure fail.
4. INSENSITIVE
- Not knowing all the tiny details means a possible loophole in the course of planning and preparation.
5. COMPLACENT
- Failure to know your own shortcomings is invitation to doom...
6. DOUBLE CROSSING
- Disloyal people never end up living it good...
7. INDECISIVE
- Hesistate and ponder till the next second. Hesistate somemore means immediate failure.
8. HYPOCRITIC
- Saying something and doing something else is never a good example to tell people how much of a failure you are.
9. STINGY
- Being stingy is a double edged sword. Usually you end up bleeding because saving a little usually means losing a lot in the future.
10. UNREASONABLE
- Nobody has the right to decide except logic, sense and just.
Jeffire, if you still have the 10 characteristics of a failure by next week, I shall see you on your knees cringing, slumped on the floor a la the New Paper cover of Van Nisterooy when they were knocked out of the Champions League....
Sure I must vanquish myself of the 10 evils....may I succeed.

This morning I 'dated' Wenhui again for breakfast. Usually after his Sat duty I will try to ask him to have breakfast with me if possible. The downpoint is that I always got to wake up earlier but I guess it's worth it since I get to eat my favourite breakfast (vegetarian bee hoon) and also have someone for company.
After that I went back home to get ready for a soccer game. Gordon asked if I could join him at Lorong Lew Lian (somewhere in Serangoon) and of course I did. The problem is that his gang was not available and so in the end it was my brother, Gordon and me, and his friends, of which, an OCS officer, and a pair of twins! Woah. The twins didn't really look that identical because one was non bespectacled while the other was. Anyway I was really tired and did not really play well. They were all surprised by my brother's performance though. My brother is really a great player. We played like for 2 hrs before I bided goodbye. 3 vs 3 in a basketball court was really very tiring and my flu didn't help much to save my 'face' haha.
A long trip back home and Keyang messaged me to get ready in case I got a recall for the Artillery table tennis team. Wonder why this time we dun have a inter unit competition..will like to try challenging him again. Haha. And it would be much fairer if we chose players through a competition rather than connections. This time I hope I would fare much better than before!
Nothing much to do at home with my brother hogging the computer, so I decided to go down and play street soccer again. I haven't been exercising on Sat and Fri. In the end I made a joke of myself playing keeper position for a team of small kids...haha. We only won 1 match together... The players seem to be there everyweek. Last week there was this guy whom I praised during mid match (yes, my fav word 'hao qiu'! haha, all my classmates always make a joke out of me with this....) and this week he wore specs... i din realised it was him until he removed his specs..oh gosh. he was one of the best around with his great ball control and great vision....wonder which sch does he play for. he is also so cute looking...haha.
yesterday was listening to boss (yes my council president, Serena, who I always call 'boss' but of course she's not bossy at all, just my way of respecting her, hee) and we both agreed that there was this someone we didn't like. It was a long story about birthday parties...presents etc...well well... juz hope things will turn out fine and i hope i will not get to see this irritating person until my anger subsides. And finally boss sent me the fotos which we took at Prince Cafe in Coronation Plaza. It was a great lunch....here's one of the fotos. Hee....i din look too bad hor.
Here's the link to the first photo
Too bad the attendance wasn't as good as I expected but in all the lunch was great and we had a great update on everyone. Hope we get to gather again soon! Here's one more foto.
Here's the link to the second
Really sorry. I can't find any space to save the photos....arghz.
Yeah. Yesterday Chris's recommendation din come true so I guess it's time I took my own decisions and get back the money I lost yesterday! Haha. I lost $6 yesterday la...not blaming Chris. Anyway I also want to thank him for hosting the mahjong game. Jiaxing really plays like a mahjong champion.....hahaha. I am glad I've got the right people for the mahjong khakis!

The past few days have been quite the same. Being sick isn't nice at all because the coughing disturbs my sleep. The flu doesn't bug me that much anymore. Thanks to the help of Vicks Vaporub. My molar on the right hurts though. I haven't been to the dentist for so many years. I will try to visit one tomorrow at the polyclinic if possible. I guess I need some professional help.
It was a great Thu morning! On my way to buying breakfast, around 0640 in the morning, I saw Silun, my long lost friend, at the coffeeshop! He smiled at me warmly! I just said "Zao" (good morning) and went on....arrgggzzzz, no courage to talk to him...
Soo KS is a pain man, he has absorbed himself too much in his NS life, one of the best, comfortable, NS life I ever seen. He is only a LCP but is like a king in his own area. Man, and he still doesn't want to leave. Today he acted like a terrorist by standing for like 20mins directly outside the fence facing our building. Ridiculous. Later he came in and again chatted with his smoking buddies. I infer that he has no friends outside NS. Anyway my advice (which i sms him everytime he sms me) for him is to find a job, get to know new people, get a good girl for a girlfriend and get married, settle down. Hope he will grow out of this phase soon.
The soccer game on Thu was quite fun but I made numerous mistakes....below par.... i wonder what i am doing!!!!!
Tomolo I will be playing mahjong at chris' home....woah. hope we have a good time!

Sick. Finally I fall sick...wonder when was the last time I was sick. This time I am down with flu. I took a break from work, nope, I din see the doc for a mc. My Br IC gave me permission to go to my bunk and sleep. Woah. Very long neva sleep in bunk. But it was a great sleep. Din even bother about waking up even when Alvin was changing. Din realised Charles was in the bunk sleeping too until I woke up. I was absent from the office for 2 hrs. Except for the persistent sneezing and coughing, I felt pretty fine. Wonder when will I recover but I hope the rain will stop and Thu we can play soccer again!
Chris will leave 2weeks later than expected, due to a last min letter from CPC(reason being the TW elections!). Haha. That's great. Anyway we have arranged to visit Wenhui's home, play mahjong and maybe play soccer with Gordon and his friends. These days been spending alot of time with him. He's pretty much like my bro in camp.... and maybe outside camp too. Aniway like I said before, sure will miss him when he departs to TW.
Started my E-Prep lessons. There are so many things to study! I dun really like studyin so maybe I will continue when I feel better. My course is an online course called Business and Entrepreneurship. Woah. Being a boss is really difficult. So many things to consider. Anyway I am back on track to my dream of being a boss, the ideas are flowing back. Now only lack some expertise on how to set up a company, like how to register, what do I need as a company, and do I need to know any specialist knowledge like accounting, etc. Wonder how do the hawkers, stallholders, shopowners manage their businesses...issit as simple as utilties bill + expenses + labour costs + rental = expenses and whatever you earn = revenue or more than this....hmm....whatever the case is, I hope I can be like what I read in the newspaper, start a company via SOHO and with a capital of $300+! Of course I got more than that to spare but keeping costs low is what you suppose to do in a business, let alone startup costs.
Been quarrelling with my brother lately. He downloaded something and installed it, causing all my programs and favourite links to be lost instantly - just to keep his downloading going all the time because previously my OS kept having a problem - self-resetting and that hindered his downloading. I hate it because I didn't subscribe to broadband for the sake of downloading. I didn't buy a new harddisk because I needed the space for downloading. I just din like to wait for things to load, and I also needed to upload things quickly. Anyway he has done it and I cannot undo it so what a pity. I do hate sharing things with selfish people and that's why all my friends know how bad a life I lead with my brother around. I can't even listen to my own preferred music! I am looking forward to my ROD because
a. it means I am going to go university soon and I will get my laptop.
b. it means he is going to NS soon.
c. it means I got no reason to be at home so early because school is far away from home
Can anyone help me to find a way to deal with my brother?

It's half time at Old Trafford now and the scores are level. Hmm. Let's hope Fulham manage to pull off another win at Old Trafford and maybe Man U will concentrate on beating Porto off in the coming Champions League.
Oooo....very tired. Morning played 2hrs of football. Din really do too well although I did manage a goal and a piece of assist. The thing is that defensively I still suck and probably I need to improve on my tackling. Also I tend to lose the ball unnecessarily cos my acceleration sucks... Anyway I am tired is because in all today I played 5 hrs of football. The other 3hrs came from playing with the kids downstairs at the street soccer court and playground. My brother did played with me together at the playground. He was really so superb that the whole crowd was memerised by his moves and then all started to copy him but of course they couldn't emulate my brother's skills. I mean he keep 'nutmegging' (I explained before in the previous blog this means 'lobang' in Singapore) and whacked a very stylo powerful outside curler that made all of us stare in awe... I played a fool in the same game cos the kids were playing too dangerously and I tried to educate them. That was futile as they were all seriously uneducated people. Playing near the playground posed so much danger to the passerbys and the property around. They still whacked so hard without proper aiming. (Yeah, my brother whacked the hardest, but that was a great aimed goalbound shot that I think only the best goalkeepers could save, but since the keeper was a small kid that means a definite goal) Anyway they just left when their party started and i went to look at the people playing at the street soccer court. Soon they asked me to join in as one of them was tired. I played keeper position and was promptly knocked out. Haha. The next game I played a non-keeper position and soon they knew I was not to trifled with. In all I played 3 games consecutively. Scored 3 and assisted 1 (2 goal KO match). In the third game we were knocked out because my shoelace broke and whenever I took a shot my shoe flew and of course that drops my accuracy so much. Anyway I did really well so I am quite satisfied.
Hope you guys reading this won't mind that this has become my personal soccer blog! Hahaha. I mean my life is only soccer now so hope u guys understand.

It's Friday! Well, work is quite stagnant these days...not much progress...our office got a new laptop....so no need to loan laptops anymore! woo...nice improvement, but we dun need that so much....whatever the case is, it's still betta than nothing.
today Soo KS finally ORDs in style. Congrats to him! It's quite sad to see such a funny character go, and he's quite a handy man too, though not veri trustworthy. On the other hand, we can say goodbye to all the mess we see on his table, to his perversion and to his begging of food from us....Well, people come and people go. Chris is leaving us next week too....sigh...another great friend leaving. Whatever the case is, I hope they will enjoy their new lives. Sure we will meet up soon as we all live in the vicinity. Of course Chris we gotta wait till next year, but one year is actually quite fast..haha.
Yesterday morning we continued playing some football. We were very sorry to reject Sch's challenge because we first time have so many players...haiz. Aniway they were quite fed up with us and in the end they brought their own ball and asked us to share the court with them. I wonder if they came first, will they share the court with us, or will they let us play with them? Previously there was once when 23 SA refused to let us play with them after taking over our court by their sheer numbers....Man, that was really so unfair. I hope some Sch people will get to see this post and understand why we rejected them in the first case. We dun have that much chance to play, and many of us soon will be stuck in the office as the regulars come out with more ways to make us stay in the office. Anyway, during the game I tried the bicycle kick and diving header..ooh...the bicycle kick i hit the ball but missed the goal...the diving header i missed completely, and thereby missed the sitter! Haiz..during the game was completely outplayed by Chris and was "nutmeged" aka "lobang" 3 times by Sgt Seet's dribbling. Unlike last week I was able to stop him..he was hurt earlier on but came back to the court to haunt us with his unique dribbling rhythm....i muz have started too easily, i knew it cos i wasn't playing 100%. I was more like playing 10% at first...anyway i hope tomolo I can give 100% and score more nice goals, rather than score goals which are kinda freak or gifted by the poor goalkeeping/defending...that isn't fun at all.
Whatever the case is, let's hope tomolo will be a fun day.
Oh ya, today is Sgt Heng's birthday. I wrote him a card. Hope he likes it...haha. Of cos the gift we will give later during the 9th KTV Challenge (not the 8th anymore after the Chairman of the KTV Commiittee, Charles, ruled so). I hope we have a fun day singing!

Good morning!
I know this is pretty weird, i mean, now it's 630am in the morning but I am typing away like that instead of getting ready to go camp....haha. Many people if they see this they are gonna whack me... hey, it's not what i wanted ok. this is what fate has arranged for me..
Ok, so now SK knows I'm reading his blog (i've juz taken a look at his only this morning). That also means he's reading mine. Hahaa. Oops...yeah. So you know I treat criticism veri seriously...juz wanna make myself better over the process. Somehow, sometimes I still think my mouth shoots involuntarily....so i am quite afraid of offending people in fact.....
Yesterday I started swimming 40laps. Actually it wasn't that tiring. However the water hurt my eyes so much that I was teary for like until 4 hrs after the swim only it got betta. But the feeling is great....maybe i shud try putting on goggles, isn't it?
I also went to the gym, woah...i dropped 1.1 kg since last monday when I first stepped into the gym with SK... if every week I dropped 1.1 kg that would be great man. My target weight is around 55 to 58. Not very sure if this is healthy or unhealthy...but if Charles stop touching my belly it means i achieved my target. haha.
Feeling quite excited these days as I am researching on backpacking in Malaysia. Kevin asked if the bros wanted to go travelling during the aust summer hols as Jinki would be back in Singapore and all the bros would have ORDed (less Kevin himself that is, but he's suppose to clear leave anyway). We will have a discussion soon and I hope to put forward useful information regarding the route and etc...
Hey, can someone tell me how do I put photos on this. I asked my sec sch fren Jason Ling over ICQ to look at my blog (yeah wanted to show him the last blog on the soccer game haha) and he said my blog was pretty plain. I guess the backgrounds and music stuff I never liked to have them cos firstly some backgrounds may be an eyesore to other ppl but not urself.. and secondly, some ppl may not like the music u put up. It's pretty subjective but to me when u put all these it means slower loading time so.....i hope not to put off people like that.
Ok this Sun is the audition and the 8th KTV Challenge. Let's hope I got a fun day. Wonder when will I do the next blog. Maybe in the afternoon later!
