Merlion

Jus came back from my FOC chalet from Pasir Ris,vommited like a merlion after playing the card games which has u to drink from the (pure)mixed vodka everytime u did smthg wrong.And now my thorat hurts as though i Swallowed a durian shell.Very
fun,cept for the memorising which card has which function.
BBQ was left with much foodies..thks to Junhan for setting the fire while I,Joel n Li wei became cyclops for that period of time,using our u-know-what.haha..
Gift exchange was conducted in an unusual manner,20 of us,the no.1 tagged person could choose present 1st,however his was the most unlucky one as his present was up for grab for the rest...meaning anyone from tag 2-20 could exchange with him,and he would have to oblige.got a glass cup bt tot tat the box was more expensive than the cup..hahaha..next time u receive a box from me..hmm...

Rather disappointed the way the X'mas celebration for our sec sch gang had turned out.I contributed a part to it as well and so did others...let jus say that once u promise,something stick to it....this impt lesson shld have been learnt..

Yidojang outing was a success,beautiful weather,beach wasnt crowded tat day,nthg adverse happened....jus wat we had planned for.
The kids were enthu,and the amazing race was done quite smoothly and the beach games as well..Dinner @ settler was alrite,bt on some time,I do agree tat preparation costs could have been further cut.

Mus start running or else the biathlon gonna starts with me lagging behind...swam the swim trial and completed in 32 mins 20 plus sec...while Jin completed it @ 29 mins 20 plus sec..which to me was fast..

alrite shld write till here.

Attended Zhong quan 22nd birthday over the weekend,had quite some fun playing the card games...bt,perhaps in the process lefting out some...but in the end,all went well..yea,we rented a car for 4 days,and it was really convienent,minus all the beeping sound and the fuel indicator low sign...

Looks like I am nt spending enough time on my school work,the econs n PBF tests recently testifies to this,esp econs!!arghh,if everyone indeed look things in the economical way,who would be at the losing end?
My typical scheldule without school would go like this,wakes up ard 9-10.I mean morning..watch TV,have breakfast which carries on till 11 plus 12,surf net till 1 plus,then goes to work at Jurong East,coming back,watches the 10pm Channel U shows...somwhow the 10pm shows are always very capturing,surf net(again) then it's bedtime. Something's missing? yup,it's studying..aim to study 30 mins/day 1st..then I see how it goes..


Will be going Mt. Ophir this weekend with ODAC club @ SIM...hopefully it be an eyeopener and fun trip..hope tat i come back safetly n in 1 piece..haha..

Resolved

The whole matter was resolved after intervention frm the ACM.It turns out tat the one responsible wasnt Mdm FF,it was another full time lady staff.She,being a foreigner and yet speaks such tales,loathe such a person.Doesnt she know the repercussion of such spreading of words to whomever?Just because she has some grudges with Mr D,can mean tat she can use me as a bystander or an object to stir something up...Bloody A*%.!!

Went Genting together with Han,Zhongquan,Liyun,huimin and Jane.Genting was cold and the bus ride jus went in circles,next time should have requested for a early check in.the afternoon check in made us really shag,nevertheless,we still managed to make our own production,a rather hilarious images show while slacking..haha..
Theme park wasnt tat exciting,din dare to sit the magnificiant spaceshot,sat on the cockcscrew,the viking,the swing..tat was abt all..haha,we got a temporary tatoo of a butterfly on various parts of our body,cool leh.zhongquan had one in the chest..woo..
CAsino was an eye opener,thousands of jackpot machines with their amazing graphics and hundreds n thousand of dollars being represent in chips changing hands..there were 21 pts,roulette,pairs,3 kings and big small,some which i dont quite rmb...Played big small,placing 4 chips on BIG,2 on no.8,2 on no.9 and 2 on no.10...guesss wat....it opened 7!!!!ar!!
Tough luck...but stopped playing and in total lost 100 Rm...

Went KL the next day,raining cats n Dogs in Chinatown.A polo Tee dark blue in colour with red strips with the logo intact was appearently the hottest item tat day..haha..Din changed much,Whole place still looked the same..ate the Hokkien mee,wasnt as good as the last time I ate it..think the person who cooked it isnt the same.
Ate Tim Sum for our Brunch b4 setting off in the genting hotel restaurant...quite tasty,esp their chee chong fun n carrot cake..
Yea,and this was about all frm our trip..pretty enjoyable..

PAcked my notes into Files Finally...phew..

maybe registering for the SIngapore Biathalon 2009,anyone interested?
Early birds $36 ..

Frustrating

Have been working at Jurong East Swimming complex for the past 3 weeks,quite intensively.Something bad happened at work today.I was the starter,the wronged and the accused all 3 in 1.
While working today ,the assistant manager came to talk to me,I tot it was smthg tat was related to work.no it was wasnt,instead it had smthg to do with wat I said.Guess wat I said,nt nasty,nt terribly bad,not insulting words,instead it was jus a question,a innocent and harmless question.

Everyone working at the pool are more or less recommended by someone else from the pool,hence they are related somehow.Imagine asking someone,lets name him Mr D,"whose husband is Mdm B ?" and he gives you a reply it's P.Hmm,I knew P since my poly days and it was rather strange tat he would recommend his wife to work here...Sensing something was amiss,I went to ask mdm FF,and she disputed this fact and said tat wat Mr D said wasnt true...and said tat it was she who recommended Mdm B here to work. I see,it wasnt unusual for Mr D for bluffing n teasing pple.I tot it was the end,a simple question which ended up with 1 false and 1 true answer.

A week later,which is today,the manager "F" me for spreading rumours,for asking questions tat werent to be ask,saying things tat ought to be kept mum.Was it true,I dont think so.Is asking a question tat concerned your colleague wrong,was the question indecent,explicit or intruding...NO,it wasnt 1 bit at all..and yet I was the one being blamed.The anger is raging,tat kind tat stay in your heart,words of unjustice floods your mind,no matter how hard you try you jus cant afford a smile,nt even showing your teeth.

I dont blame Mdm B as she is famous for being upright,tat kind who takes things a mere too seriously.The one whose at fault is Mdm FF,surprised I blamed her?Here's why,Mdm FF knew Mdm B longer than any of us at the pool,in fact she recommended Mdm B to the pool,knowing tat Mdm B was those serious,no jokes person,she went ahead and told her,WTF....Why?tats the big question in my mind today,this entire episode could hae ended with Mdm FF,and yet she prefered to tell Mdm B,really dont understand her
watever motive for saying.All thanks to her, nw Mr D may face being reprimanded by the mgt.Watever previous grudges bear by Mdm ff to Mr D,why must she transfer the black face to me...and I tot Mdm FF was a nice lady...ARRGH...Wat makes me more the guily was tat Mdm B came and tell me it wasnt my fault,it was Mr D who spread this thing who is responsible...wonder wats going to happen,but the next time I work,I am not gonna ask anything,I jus keep my mouth tight and hear stuffs tat spoken by others.

This post has really been boring as I am really very frustrated..being stabbed by someone,losing a fren..and all these nonsense..

Will update on the genting trip on my next post.

ORD lo!

Finally ORDed on the 5th of sept,got back my very Soft pink IC...think is caused by the aircon..haha..a civilian n a NSF no more..

Screwed up on my ORDed date,din did survey and ended up spending 1.5 hr doing tat,plus the clearance...which caused me to forgo tat sentosa outing by OG4...My sincerest apologises to Pearl,Dapahane n Ming long for not being there...paiseh,tat ORD took a tat too long,I being the co-ordinator yet was nt ard,think owe you guys 1 big one...

ORDed has been ard 1 wk now,classes are now more congested and chim,dun seems to know wat the PBF lecturer esp. was talking about..
My Pri. 6 tutees is going to have his PSLE in ard 3 weeks time,my only worry is his English...other than tat,I must say tat he excel in his sciences.

Jin,Darryl and Kelsen took their 2nd Dan exam last wk,was quite impressed with Darryl's sparring on one on one and his plank kicking..style and execution was precise n sharp...doubt i can do tat..talking about going for higher dan test,after missing TKD for ard 4 mths,my kicks are now really bad,slow double turning and reaction times..If i m serious abt going,need really much much prac..
Sir mentioned about commanding a class,and i needs some practice on the commanding of a class..find it very hard to handle children now,it seems one's image must be stern,as kids seems to know to break your sterness or when they find u nt enforcing on their acts,they lose interest n do somthg they prefer or they would complain of pains everywhere...then when u give them a break,they would run,yes,run to the water point..haha..

Stand chart marathon is here,not taking part cos of various reasons,nt enough training and partly because of the late register fees which is 85 n 65 for full n half marathon...tats really a bit too much for me.

Went IKEA to get my study table yesterday and the price had gone up by 30 bucks compared to 2 months ago...shit,shld have bought it 2 months ago plus it was out of stocks when we agreed to bought,argh!!tats inflation for us man...

Having some conflicts with bro now over the malaysia trip at then end of this month..nothing to said cept for we both had our own faults..promise is a promise..

Alrite,shld write till here,will update again..

And yea,Liverpool won against Man U!!

AHM CONQUERED!

It was the AHM yesterday.Went on a cab early in the wee hours with Kian n kia.Met up with Di xuan over there.Drizzle a bit,but the rain stopped within starting moments of the race. Inching to the starting point,we finally got to run at rd 6.45...woo,early in the morning breeze and people zooming past you,on the public road..fantastic feeling.

First 5 km was jus about jostling with people for space,overtaking people at a rather snail pace.The next 5 km was when we entered East Coast park thru Fort road..we picked up pace and ran on the grass patch most of the time.Upon the turning point,I was rather relived as the turning point seems quite far,further than the twice runs that I did at ECP...but alas,at the 11 km point,while overtaking,I sprained my left ankle,the pain was bearable and I continued the run up to the marina barrage where I stopped, passing by a newly construsted road which consist of newly tarred road,which was the most difficult part to run.This part though new,had cement and soil and one has to look out constantly,esp me,as I din want to sprain my ankle for the 2nd time on the uneven surfaces.

The last 4 km was a killer,having ran only up to to 16 km during training,it was all about pushing myself.Every breathe of air smelled so nice. I break away from di xuan,and ran and stop,ran n stop at times..every step seems like a possible cramp coming up...the 18-19 km was like never ending,the poster for 19 km seems to have been misplaced.Finally,saw it near the turn near lau pa sat,ran,keep telling myself not to stop,however it was jus too gruelling,stopped once,walked for a few moments then went on to finish the race at the Padang.Last 500m was where encouragement from the side really counts,the shouts n cheers really set u up on an adrealine high.

Finished the race in ard 2 hrs 15 mins,wasnt a very good timing,but it falls in my target of finishing below 2hrs 30 mins.Wasnt really esctatic like wat other runners has said when I passed the finishing line,perhaps it's the stopping part,shouldnt have made a number of stops along the run.Nevertheless,the race is completed,job done..and it's time my legs take a much awaited break...

Yea,it was Chun hong birthday as well yesterday,went with BL,kia,kian to Crystal Jade to celebrate. Had a tough time deciding whether it was chinese noodles or japanese ramen,decide on the former since ramen were quite costly.the xiao long bao was tasty and the salted duck with bun,was a good choice for a side dish.

No more running for now..haha

AHM

Bridging's over,Finally.Had a hard time mugging,drawing those curves,graphs n countless integration sums,just hope that the results this time will be good...no need to repeat those module..

AHM's this sunday and unfortunately,han's unable to take part cos he is involve in this organising committee.I will be running the HM with Kian,n my platoon sgt,who esp,went thru the 14,15 km run at ECP n PLC with me,for now...is rest n preparation as I awaits this coming run.Hope my legs dun give me trouble,and that I can complete the race within 2.5 hr so to get the finisher medal.B4 the 15 km run,the AHM was jus a race for me to complete,but my timing wasnt that bad and so I decide to give it a shot at the finisher medal.

School has began,taking 2 modules/wk for nw.Relived that I went throught the FOC or else I would look like 1 lost kid in a shopping mall.My OG frens are quite fun to be,organising trips frequently...

Since bridging exams are over,time seems to be on my side....plently of spare time,can do wat i desire to do,maybe returning bk to TKD depending on my tuition scheldule.

Played street soccer at camp the past week,tiring but fun esp when u OLE opponents..,OLE!

ODAC Camp

It's been a while since I post,was busy with the FOCamps and ODAC orientation camp.
ODAc camp was held on Pulau Ubin,upon reaching was asked to pitch tent,but alas,the tent wasnt really firm and fell after a while...spend quite some time pitching. Played some Ice-breaking game in the begining,and oh my,they werent jus ur ordinary games...one game was standing in a row,then pass a long string across the row through ur trousers,yes,it's ur trousers..hahaha,after the string comes the big omph,a ice pack,LOL...really cooling though..Another was to protect a mummy from incoming water bombs while some attacks...real fun,the mummy was wrapped up in toilet paper..and the winner was of course the one who had the most toilet paper..
2nd day was spent cycling round Ubin to look for items n pics,shag though bt realised the island wasnt tat big after all...the skit n the miss Ubin was the highlight of the camp,our group had to put on a skit on CONDOm....oh man,but in the end thks to my OG member,we managed to put on a hilarious skit..with soya bean,LOL..guess u knw the purpose of tat..Our Miss Ubin was really clasic,a real "lady" with lady like behaviour..haha,while other grp choosed mascular man to dress up like a lady,our grp did the opposite..a average height n skinny boy,and wallop...fantastic show..haha..

Think tat sums up the camp,shld write abt the FOcamp some days later....kinda lengthy nw...

Tioman

Yes,it's a trip to Tioman last wk for me again,this time a 4D 3N trip.After since the incident on the shuttle boat which caused 2 or 3 deaths,the ferry was much more cautious with a manifest with our names. Went with my aunt,dad,brother,little cousin n ah ma.Tioman has changed a lot,with more stalls being set up,roads paved.Yea,talking abt road,I drove from Johor to Mersing...138km hor,ahaha..is nt abt the distance actually,it's tat the road are so curvy left n right.1 qian pian question,hw many turns are there from Johor to Mersing,answer right below...
Went boat outing,nt much changes,however,corals maybe due to inexperienced divers appears to be spoil to a small extend,drift was exceptionally strong,making snorkelling a bit headache..Went fishing the next day on a boat,current this time was exceptionally strong.and when the current is strong,the boat doesnt moves,it rocks...ur stomach starts to churn..and out came breakfast and a bit of last nite supper n beer.Used hand reel line to fish using squids as bait,my aunt gt at least 20 of the fishes,is light red in color,forgot the name n 2 or 3 ang kor li..while unlucky me n bro managed only 2..Went to this waterfall tat I never been to,at a fairly deserted jetty,tracked ard 30 mins b4 reaching,the waterfall was spectacular,think a pic says a thousand words..no pic nw,will try to post the link..
A new duty free shop had opened at a spot near the mnarine park,saw a gigantic chivas...look at the pic which i will post..

There are........2 turns to Mersing.......Left n right..haha

Bridging classes has started,on offs nw so has nt been so tired...will see when camp resume.Moreover,my maths n econs lecturers r 2 funny guys..esp my econs lect,joking with a serious face,doesnt laughs...tats the ultimate of a joke..haha.

Running quite a bit the past few days,between 4-5 km each time,longest ran is 45 min non stop with kian n Kia lip,Looks like the target of completing the half marathon is closer to realisation..ard 1mth n 20 days to go,next target will be to run non-stop for 1 hour...no matter the speed.

This Euro cup has been fairly exciting,with Portugal knocked out by Germans and the dutch by arshavin n gang,fairly surprising.Watched Spain n Russia last nite,Torres had a lousy game,missing plenty of chances,while inestia n juan ramos were the engine behind spain.Puyol commanded the defence well.Credit to Russia to making it this far..their coach,Gus is still amazing for bringing them so far.

This has been an exceptionally long entry,because I have not blog in how many donkey weeks..

Will try to post the link soon for my pics.

2/6/08

SIM has yet to reply me for my request on the changes of my timing classes,frustrating.

Went for a run with HZ yesterday,the 1st since the wisdom tooth extraction,felt very comfortable running. The new Nike Air zoom structure feels comfortable but it's heel was a mere too high,which makes lifting up a bit tiedious but overall it is quite a good shoe. Was thinking between Asics n this pair but gave up after tat asics pair din had my size after gg down to queensway twice. I think it has smthg to do with brand loyalty as my previous pair was a Nike too.

Went down with my dad to his wheelchair basketball practise on sat,saw quite a few familiar faces which i did recognised.Perhaps it's their jovial and sporty character,time n age seem to have not taka a toil on their faces.Played a mini game with them,and dudes...it is really tiring...haha,wheeling frm 1 end to another...getting into formation b4 the other team gets to you..The pt where u try to shoots is tough as u are at a lower height,bt my bro was able to got one in..haha..Fun game..

Gonna go for my extraction for the stiches inside my mouth.

Changi Airport

Went Changi Airport in the morning today,jus wanted to go there and chill out,relax,sort out my coming plans after ORD.

Took a camera there,which wasnt any useful as ALL except T1 viewing galleries can
u see planes close up enough for a clear pic..sucks!!The journey there made me reminicise the days of preparing to board the plane to Thai n ROC,how sian to be apart frm this place where my loved ones n friends are..this time rd,it was my turn to see sad faces !!haha...nt exactly,Airport was quiet with few passengers if there was,would mostly be in the boarding lounge..

The 4 wisdom tooths tat I took out on monday is still with me,in a bag,took a few pics for memory. Amazed tat the corners of my mouth could actually hide such a gigantic tooth.Somehow I quite treasure these 8 days of MC,nt because I detest gg to camp so much esp. when it is near my hse,but when the MC is really tailored fit for u..to suffer ur hardship,no hard foods,no hot stuffs tats y u r nt allowed to return camp or rather continue ur normal routine.

Bridging classes gonna start in the middle of June,It's econs n Maths,hope it doesnt gets too tough.This registration fee tat whatsoever fee,oh man,UOL is really expensive...

My coming target would be the coming AHM,my aim is to complete it and not to fight for any personal best or timings..Let's hope tat those tat are joining as well be injury free throughout the trainings,hope I can start jogging by the start of next week..

Oh yeah,thanks RS n JB for the Mahjong tutorial,let's have another tutorial again someday with the same fees...hahaha

Back from ROC!!

yoohoo,I am back from ROC..ROC was fun,and heng chun camp was defintely the best SAF camp in ROC,been to zhong zhuang camp and came up with tat conclusion.

I was deployed once with tze kwang in Mudan and the scenary there was breathetaking,the water dam or the shui ku was gigantic..i think tat should be selected as a dive spot,haha.nt forgetting the shop nearby tat sold chong zhua ping which was nice,the cong smell was evidently present however not as crisp as the prata...guess everything hot taste nice when u r outfield..

Heng chun nites out was fun for the maiden time,after which u would be begging to go ken ting which is slightly further up..which thank godness after 2 nites at heng chun town..kenting,famous for it's beach has a nite market where food and bao bao cha(again) are sold,they have numerous stall offering air rifle n pistol games...

Food in heng chun camp was nice,using zhen zhu mi which is the type of rice they use for making sushi...ate many ji pa(s),and their shan zhu rou which is a bit between san chen rou and beef...nice!
R & R was fun partly because our tour guide was perhaps the most chio one among the rest,haha...went to this amusement park which had a gigantic ferris wheel,tried the G5...damm thrilling it goes up a really steep slope then a few meters of flat track
and then it's the 90 degrees fall...ur body faces all the way down..woo..tried the freefall 3 times and i tell u the feeling is still the same even though it's ur third time trying the ride,it goes up to a height of around 17 storeys stops there for about 10 seconds then it;s zooming down...ur heart nearly drops out and suddenly u r lost for scream ..really thrilling and fun!!
Ximen ting had lots of low level shophouses which sold things mainly towards the hip-hope side,so din bought much stuffs home...

There was this bai dian outside our camp and coincidentally the shop owner son ORDed on the last day,and they set up a stage and held a few tables.they hired 3 scantily dressed girls for a pole dance performance and for NT 100 u get to brush ur head between their breast..they would sit on ur lap and push ur head towards their breasts.haha,,sibei happening...i din pay for tat cos i was quite drank and was a merlion twice tat nite,haha...taiwan beer are quite cheap,for NT 41 which is Sin 2 dollars u get a can of beer,shiok man...

Overall this trip was fun but the number of days staying there was lengthy in fact very lengthy..since we supported 2 exercises..gals there r friendly and would most likely be agreeable to take photos together..

SIM bridging classes would be starting at the end of this month..

Take care.

Back from Crescendo

Finally,back in Singapore now,after 1 mth of overseas bunk living.
The scorching and relentless sun did quite a damage to my acne n pimples on my face...while outfield Afternoon was hot while it was bitter cold in the nite..
Cookhouse wasnt tat bad although it sucks durin a short period of time,canteen was brillant...I be missing the apple freeze,lychee freeze and the mango freeze..Freezes!

The R & R wasnt as bad as perceived,though it's meal were unfilling,saw a fair bit of animals,snakes,tiger,elephant,monitoor lizards,crocodiles...all were kept in their enclosure.I was rather pissed off by the way the trainers treat the dogs and elephants,this is how they do it,they put a collar on the dog's neck and when the dog refuses to do as instruct,the trainer would hook the leash onto the collar and give it a couple of hard knock pulls...and imagine in front of the audience he was there also threatening to kick the dog with his F@#king leg,one can imagine what goes on behind the scene..

Overall this trip was quite ok...sat SIA there but flew Jetstar back with multiple hand carry bags..u decide..The thing was tat we went there far too early and most of the time we were slacking ard,but gd thing was tat our offs came up to 9 days from our previous 7 days...steady!!

And here I am with a cotton in my mouth cos I jus extracted a wisdom tooth tat was pouncing on the wisdom tooth directly below it...feels numb still...2 dys of MC
I be leaving for ROC on monday along with my wisdom tooth and this time will be back only ard early may..but my reviews from others on ROC has been much positive and the R & R should be quite fun...

So,till then ...see ya n take care!

Chinese NEw year chu 2

Happy Chinese new year to all again!!

This year CNY is different,jus seems strange all your elder cousins either have a partner or is already married.
Suddenly,it seems like you are the biggest among all the cousins,expected to lead them,to indulge in games,be a starter.
Loathe this scene,it shows tat you are no longer young and it's time you do smthg to change your status.Gone are the days where all cousins sits together and share lame jokes,tease about one of our cousins,sing Karaoke,play poker and laugh at each others for taking too much cards during 21 pts,who's a bankrupt 1st,talk abt BGR,pure BGR....
Din do much at my mother side,since san yi wasnt present,bt did played some poker with my auntie and my almost drunk grandfather,The whole ah ma hse jus seems so much much quiet without them....miss the time when san yi husband would conduct the whole in-between game surrounding the dining table,all focused on the card and not on the TV.
Over at my father side,my grandfather sibling's sons and their sons came,did not expect much,someone's behaviour almost killed the whole day,and till today I am surprised...really surprised how I could tahan his this attitude for so long...
One of my cousins din came cos she went to work,really dun understand...we only meet once in a year and yet this..
Next year CNY gonna be a bit more lonier cos 1 of the elder cousin would be flying off to the state...haiz..
Talked to my father abt this thing on the way back....he said this is hw generations function.This was the same thing that happened to him and my uncles,slept in a same room when they were young,nw adults who have children who are in turn are my cousin...Time files..

I am always very motivated whenever I gets bk frm my CNY visits,looking at the successful pple....bt this dun last long,and soon I will rest on my laurels again..
Time is precious,it files without u knowing,so treasure your friends and relatives..

Glad tat Sean n Bryan these 2 cute boys came...
Drank 5 cans of beer,n i finally knw where was my alcohol tolerance level...

nails nails on the wall

My new unit is not so bad after all...hmm..

Want to share a story told to me by my church fren which I find it to be very meaningful.

In those Colonial times,there lived a boy named Daniel.He quarreled and fight with other people very commonly. He would get angry or unbearable of the conversation or action with others very easily. He could not pass 1 day without quarreling or fighting with others.

One day,his dad told him,"Son,you see the blank wall over there? " Daniel nodded his head.His dad continued "Everytime you quarrel or fight with someone,you hammer a nail on that wall." Daniel agrees thinking that if he could curb his temper,the wall would remain this way.

However as weeks went by,his temper got the better of him,the nails started appearing all over the blank wall. Within a week, the blank wall was so full of nails that Daniel could no more nail more nails onto it.

His father on viewing the wall advised him to pluck out 1 nail if he dont quarrel or fight with someone for a day. 2 months later the wall was free of nails.

His father told Daniel to come over to him,and said" Look,son,you have done a great jobs of not quarreling with anyone for the past 2 months. However look closer, what do you spot?"
Daniel replied"Holes,Dad".

It's just the same with friends,once you quarrel or fight over something,you can simply apologise and say we be friends again...but your relationship will not be the same again just like the HOLES in this story..
