Anyway, to all my friends out there that don't know, I will be away to to Brunei the next 2 weeks, from the 21st of July to the 2nd of August.

Never will i forget each and everyone that made my SAF band life such an exciting journey. Hopefully this Brunei trip will be a roaring success so as to add a beautiful full stop to my army life...

Anyway, still at the ORD function, so sorry to those that i wanna thank but totally slipped of my mind, its not that you are forgotten, its just that when i got up there and see the many pairs of eyes staring at me, my mind just blanked out... so sorry, but shall say here ba... special thanks to Tuan Hao, my junior for awhile before i was made bass drummer, erm all my soccer kakis like Hak, Shawn, Ivan, Eric, etc...

The hole is turning to a bottomless pit!!!

OMG, just as i thought my shopping craze is coming to an end, i was wrong, as its a taking a new turn, a new beginning... have been purchasing alot of stuff and my bank account is really depleting fast... really hope the brunei allowance will come sooner to cover some damage done to my account... Currently there is another item on my list on the "to buy" list... argh... and the cycle continues...

Let me briefly walk through my weekend, its a pretty long weekend i have to say, having thursday halfday (due to an early parade). Anyway, friday went to gym for a little workout, been slacking off the past few weeks and could really feel the effect its had on me man... my muscles still sore from the workout till today. After that, went down town to walk around, simple window shopping, or so i thought... haha ended up buying a pair of shades (from ALDO). Bumped into this surveyor, a girls that is probably my age or slightly younger... help her to do a survey, judging from the question it seems like a school project, but then again i maybe wrong. Anyway, the interesting is she noticed my shades (I was in my adidas shades, which shields my eyes away from the crowd) and commented saying "you look cool in those shade" with a blushing grin to end off... haha, I am not sure if she is trying to hit on me... maybe its just me, but it certainly made my day... haha, easily contented yah?

Well, as i was getting bored in town and just as i was about to make my way home, my friend called asking me to meet him to collect some facial products. So after collecting, we make our way to PS where he took his dinner, and we walked around... saw a pair of berms that i like, size abit big, but fits me alright with a belt at least... Didn't buy its there and then, but kept me thinking about it, so i went back the next day and got it instead... haha the we walked past SK jewellary, and a ring caught my eyes, so the sale personel recommended me to get another at a cheaper rate... Anyway, something very funny happened there and then, which i don't wanna get into too much of a detail and will remain a secret with me lah... In the end i got both the rings... and that concludes my friday.

Saturday, was thinking whether or not to go paddling... but a phone call kinda made a choice for me and i didn't as i met Sherine in town instead... did some window shopping (REAL window shopping this time, till maybe when i got the berms...heez) and sherine did her shopping... thou its a short trip but i guess we both enjoyed ourselves... Haha sherine was like my "shopping devil" cause she kept tempting me to buy stuff... but well for good reasons too lah, coz i look good in them... Many a times, I was going to take out my wallet... but i put it right back as i know i have already broken my limit for the month... Saving for my overseas trip ahead man. Well in the evening, met up with the rest of the flute gang and we caught Pirates of the Carribean, for those that have not caught the movie, a word of advise, watch the first movie before you catch this, as there is many links and you wouldn't like the movie coz you will be lost half the time... I find that its pretty nice, and i am looking forward to part 3 already... heez...After that, we chilled out at TCC before calling it a night...

Thats about it for my weekend i guess, as you can now see why my hole in the pocket have turned into a bottomless pit, as there is plenty of item still on my "to buy" list. Haiz... when will this madness end, i wonder? haha Money money money... please come and solve all my sorrows... lolx... crapping about... anyway enjoy the rest of whatever weekend left lah... i will be home licking my wounds on my burnt pocket, at the same time savour the prizes of my shopping trips.. *evil grin*

Monday... no blues!!! woo hoo

Although the day started of gloomy and rainy for me... its doesn't seem to affect me at all. As a matter of fact, the weather worked to our advantage, as it kept coming for the entire morning cancelling any drill lessons. (for brunei that is..) After, even thou there rain has stopped, but due to auditions then, we all had Sports and Games instead... Haven't had so much fun in such a long while liao man...

After work today, first time not staying in, head for Northpoint to do some shopping first. Items bought: Skipping rope from royal sporting house, and Toiletries bag from Bodyshop... not a bad deal, the ropes is in preparation for my newest sport... but till i offically join, then i launch, keeping it a secret for now... for those who already know...SssssHHH....

Tml, a band gathering for a lunch down at downtown east, but first, its to the doctors for me... Finally a checkup on my shoulder before flying to brunei... hopefully everything goes well, gonna let the doc know about the ocassional pains and slip offs and see if he has a remedy to it... After that, guess its off to town to walk... just hope i dun see anymore things i wanna get... haha hmm pehaps some more berms and some cargo/kaki pants if there is good deals that is... but shall see lah...

Alright guess thats all for the day... have a great week ahead, 2 more weeks to brunei!!! woohoo

Leaving on a jet plane

More and more people are heading overseas to study, before you know it, its everyone i know is no longer in Singapore... haiz... I am feeling this as most friends (at least those i still contact) have left. if not, is leaving Singapore to future their studies somewhere else in another country. Here i am, getting all lonely and all... and can you believe it, my Mediaplayer have to play Canon in D at this moment in time, add salt to the wound, but well think of the positive side, kinda relax things up on this wet sunday afternoon.

Well, just attended one of my fren, Carol's farewell party, can't exactly called it a party, more like a get together before she flys off... guess i am gonno miss her. Its a pretty strange thing with human, when they are by your side, you couldn't care less, and now that they are leaving, there is this feeling of miss and stuff... Okok, shall not sound like she is gone for good or something... but she did mention its about 3 to 4 years at least... which is stilll a long time... All the best my good friend...

Guess there isn't much to write about this week, attended dragonboat training for the first time after awhile, and my body needs some fine tuning i guess, a week have already past and i haven't really got my body to get back to workout mode... guess its partly due to the brunei trip... so been slacking and hope not to give my body to much pressure, but i guess its an excuse coz i have not been doing very well in controlling my diet either... argh... just hope i haven't been putting on any more weight... 1 kg is already abit too much to bear...

Alright, i guess i will end of today with some photos from carol little meet up session lah... enjoy the rest of your weekend pple...



Guess thats all... heez... Ciaoz

Broke!!! when will it start raining money....

Had just updated my bankbook and i almost had a heart attack, i have spent alot, on what? i really donno, i try to recall on stuff i bought, but the amount added up doesn't tally with the amount spent. As a matter of fact, its way off!!! Haiz... guess is bread for the next few days till pay comes, and den too have to watch my spending... argh!!! wan to work and start earning some real money, this army allowance thingy maybe can feed the entire family in the past, but being in year 2006, its not even enough for me on one shopping trip man.. everything is increasing, transport, prices of items, and short after GST, but how come there is no rise in pay... haiz....



Anyway, guess enough whinning on being broke, guess its redundent to overdo it, since its not going to change the situation in any bit.. haha, anyway, had a great day tanning at sentosa today, the places was packed with beach goers man, haha and as for me, all lonely with my trusty companion, Mr. Ipod and my book "The Tenth Circle" its a good book, i am in the mids of it and i love it... Was suppose to be meeting Teo hui to collect something he owe me like a month ago, but he was busy (as usual) so had to collect it onli tml... hopefully he remembers to bring it... if not i really haven't a clue how am i to get from him... Went for a little walk at harbourfront, haha a shopperholic cannot resist the temptation of a shopping mall i guess... and there is where i updated my bank account... thou disheartened to find out about my soon to be emptied bank account, i still walked around seeing whats good... and i did make a number of finds. I saw another model of the police shades that i like, but it cost a freaking $250, haiz... other then that i saw an aldo watch which is also pretty nice... argh... its torturing seeing nice things and not being able to buy since its within range... but i endured and walked out of the shop... Before i make any impulsive buying, i decided to call it a day, and head home... phew... who could have guess what would have happened if i stayed a second longer...



Anyway, now that SAF day is over, its all for BIT, and my 3 month ORD training thingy... know i have been saying that for like awhile, but its pretty difficult to get the engine started since its rested for so long... especially when i got the blow of not being able to race... haiz... but i am glad they got something (insider info)... ok lah... short week ahead (i hope) take care pple and looking forward to the weekends... One more week to pay day!!!

SAF Day is finally over!!!

Woo Hoo!!! No more SAF day lo!! 3mths to ORD!!! counting man!!! haha, so many things to be happy about for the month of July, but nothing beats completing the mother of all parades man... Actually this year is pretty short, compared to last year, its less then an hour, even shorter then OCS parades that take up to 1.5 hrs at times... Wanna know y? coz this year the president "bang seh" us, didn't come, only got to know it on the actual day itself... so skipped quite abit of thing... This SAF day is pretty blessed i would say, welfare Commander, nice weather, good food... what more can you are for... haha NO MORE FOR ME!!! YEAH!!!

Okie enough about SAF day i guess, will share some pictures later, for now, its something about the week that past. Friday was off, went for a shopping expedition with my frens, a spend like nobody's business, super broke now... but enjoyed every bit of my spendings... And i dare say there is more to come... Cos there is many things i have yet bought... haha.

Have been pretty vexed the entire day, seem troubled by many things... wanted to vent it out from the ktv session with my frens... haha but don't seem to work, but i did enjoy myself nevertheless... I guess today did affect me in one way or another, have to really change my lack of confidence i guess... time to really open up... trying very hard to do so... but being very aware of my image... i guess i still have a long way to go...

haha, alright lah, some photos taken for BITs first full dress rehearsal and also SAF 2006


And here is some from SAF day 2006



Not forgetting the soon to ORD batch, the good people, tian you and or course the person that gives me the most ride on his car (right) Zhi xun, cannot thx u enough man, all the best in aussie yah...

Over in a Week!!!

Yeah, 2 more rehearsal to the actual and... NO MORE SAF DAY lo!~!~! now i can understand how the soon to ORD batch feel last year during this period of time, but I am more happy that this is ending soon as it finally ends my long time working with captain yusri...phew... feel like i been a POW this past time and finally light can been seen in hell once again... haha am i being over exaggerated? i wonder. I didn't day that without a reason, Friday we had rehearsal, and our conducting was Cpt Johnson, and i heard that its many comment that they felt the sudden decrease in stress level while playing, that tells alot yah?

Anyway, enough about SAF day, tml there will be more, meanwhile, i guess i would like to enjoy my weekend... heez, Oh yah all the shopperholics out there!!! more great sale is here as Club 21 starts to join the GSS craze, store with the likes of CK, G-Star, A|X and many more are having sale... my latest news is that Zara is also having sale already, so start your killing!!! hahaha enjoy yourselves!!!

Okok, now some recap on my past week, basically all is the same except friday where I attended a fren's, Alicia, 21st birthday, its was pretty fun i would say, but i guess she was too busy entertaining her other frens that we felt abit left out, but luckily we had uncle dennis, the ever so funny guy to keep us gasping for air after laughing so much... wo say its a pretty simple party, but most importantly is that everyone had fun... here are some of the pictures



(From left): a group picture of all present, except for irene who, as usual was busy brushing her hair in the loo... haha... the we have the birthday girl making her bday wish. Lastly, the group of girls and some of my best gossip and shopping kakis... hehe....

Argh, i donno what happened, but in just these past weeks, i have gained 1KG!!! its scary, yes and i guess i have to find my determination back again... Honestly losing it, so i guess i have to do something about it fast... Gambate to myself!! Anyway, guess thats all, cya next week then!!!

The "Fun" is just setting in...

Argh... I used to love the month of june, but that is way back in to my studying days... now, i absolutely dread it. SAF day, one of the biggest event of army, but the most dreaded by most of the units. (at least for those that is involved) . 2 more weeks and it will all be over... thank god, i am practically ripping of the days of my calendar, hoping that July 1st will come sooner... its that scary..

Anyway, the GSS fever is starting in me as i found oppotunity to go do some window shopping last week in orchard with my shopping kakis in camp... haha... Saw lots of pretty good buy, but have to abstain as i haven't draw up a list (shopping list that is). Many a times i have to have my hands in the pocket as its really itching to shop... this feeling is like drug addict getting cold turkey treatment, except that my addiction is safer... heez...

Last week, have been a hell week, been doing endless amount of parades and brunei rehearsal. everyday is packed with event and everyday i end off the day with my white shirt soaked in sweat, no kidding... Tml, start of a new week, and the vicious cycle starts again. not sure how much more of this i can take, in a couple of rehearsals my arm was giving sharp pain, definately a sign that i cannot forgo. Want to inform my spec about it, but kept in silence as i didn't wanna fall into the CY section, aka faking it colume.. Anyway this CY is a person that is getting on my nerves since the day he step into the band, but i guess i will not mention too much about him on my blog, its just tarnish my blog. Mentioning is name is enough to make my blood boils... so i am no gonna mention anymore...

Was suppose to go shopping with a fren today, but she is packing her place, another fren of mine also jio me, but i guess not coz I have to repack my stuff... heez... as the saying goes "if the old doesn't go, the new won't come" so yup.... alright then... may you guys enjoy ur day... blog again next week!!! ciaoz...

Long Break.... FINALLY!!!

The week seems shorter, 3 1/2 days to be specific, took off for the afternoon of thursday and entire friday. Really needed a rest, my right shoulder is giving problem again. feels abit loose, if you get what i mean.

Monday till wednesday, spent my day in tekong. pretty screwed up passing out parade i would say. but well its gonna be my last time on that island anyway. so i didn't mind... heez... Bass drum is really taking on a more negative effect on me than a positive one. its damaging my body physically and its taking its effect on my flute playing... which is a big thing. Something i have learned for 9 years lost due to something i was forced to play.

Anyway, yesterday started my first spending on GSS, cannot resist a good deal, so i got a couple of jeans from Guess... haha 50% off, how to resist... heez... and its not everyday items on those shelf fits me... heez... As the saying goes, "its takes a spark to light a fire", now the fire of shopping is finally burning. So its time for me to organise things that i should buy and plan a budget so as to not overspent... haha, strange words coming from my mouth, words like Budget and Planning, this words was never in my dictionary before army days. guess army really did train something out of me... heez... And believe it or not, i have not stepped into town (as in Orchard) since the launch of GSS. Worried that I cannot control myself i guess...

Ok lah... i guess thats all, will be going gym and giving Dragonboat a miss i guess. Dun wanna affect others training for the race, and remind myself that i cannot be in it... *sob still sore about it. have a great weekend then... ciaoz...

Sunday, June 04, 2006

Back to Work!!!

Working out after a week of absence can be a little hard to chew, I am experiencing it right now... was thinking of going for training this morning but last night late night shopping have taken its effect on me and i was not able to wake up in time for training. Thus, i went to the gym instead. Didn't really concentrate, but did a pretty whole body workout. Coz i was thinking since i haven't work out for a week, all my muscle would be equally relaxed so by doing focus training, the sets of muscles involved might not take it... But little did i realise, that its so tiring man... have to start planning my schedule again, I have a month to my aim. its coming but not obvious... heez



Yesterday, lost morale of dragonboat after recieving news that the race have been changed to July 1 & 2, the days of SAF day. so decided to give myself a week's break since all my effort for the race have pretty much gone down the drain. Went to nyp for band prac instead, saw many familiar faces, coz its for aluminis, and its a good thing i have not completely lost touch on how to play the flute. felt so at home when handling notes rather then straight beat. (in SAF band i play the bass drum, in case you don't know what i mean). Quite impressed by the standard of the music actually, coz its sound pretty good. I guess this happens only when the band is made out of all talented musicians. heez... Enjoyed myself totally. After that, went to city hall and marina square to do some window shopping. Its my first time doing it since GSS started man. SALE is everywhere, making me, a shoppaholic, all hyped up.... My shopping kakis for last night was Alicia, Jac, May and Lewis. Haha, also the first time after a long while May came out shopping with us, been so busy for her after graduating. So i guess its kinda fun coz its brings back some memories of Aussies day man... lolx...



There was Midnight sale last night so we where loitering around Marina till close to 12, alot of people so pretty much glance through stuff, and have a rough idea of things to buy once my pay come. But i didn't go home empty handed neither, got myself a book from Times. haha, you guys must be thinking, who in the right frame of mind gets a book and SALE, lolx, well reason being its a good book and since it had offer so what the heck, besides i need something to read this afternoon too... heez...



Alright lah, i guess thats all for the day lah, will blog more next week when i get back then... meanwhile enjoy ur weekend! whatevers left of it... heez... Cheers!

Crappy week, and more to come ahead!!!

Argh!!! thought home can solve my crappy week but its seems that it just brought me more bad news... My dragonboat race dates have been changed to July 1st and 2nd, which clashed with SAF Day!!! means i cannot take part because i have to work on that day!!! there goes all my training!!! haiz...Great man, lost on whether to continue training or just forget it and do self training till the next race. Was really looking forward to my first gold medal... now its seems like its been snatched off, riped of my neck man... Argh, this feeling sucks man...



Will complain more later i guess, first of all i would like to congradulate a couple of my friends, Cheryl and Sherine, for passing there TP and now offically a driver like me... heez, both 14 pointer... only difference is that one is class 3(manuel) and the other is class 3A(auto). But no matter what, a licence is a licence, so happy driving yah... Was reading Sherine's blog and found out that she was tested by Instructor Asis, this can be purely coincidental but apparently i passed my TP under the same instructor. heez, what is weirder is, another friend of my, got his licence not long before me, and he passed with that same instructor too... haha how lucky can this be, fated i guess... hahaha



Ok back to more complaining, haiz, this week is super busy, practically worked the entire week off... wondering why i am working my ass off when i am already about to leave this dreaded place, SAF really knows how to make FULL use of one's POTENTIAL. Well, I don't really mind working, actually i love it, cause the day seems to pass really fast. Its just the fact that you are putting all the effort in the work and some others just sits around, and at the end of the day all get the same rewards, and at times, the slacker get more... its irritating and very unfair, but i guess i can only suffer in silence since i haven't got anyone at my end. Lucky i got a handful of frens that is willing to lend their ears when i need someone to grumble at. Yesterday had corp of drums at tekong, for the first time i felt the sore on my right shoulder coming back again, and at some moment i really felt it popping out and back in. I haven't an idea when its gonna happen again, but i am pretty sure, if this carries on, its will be sometime soon. Its not a good thing, because i am playing a pretty crucial role in the trip to brunei and the recent parades. haiz, at times i really wish to just quit playing the bass drum, solely because i only help out out of good will, and they seem to take advantage of me at times...But haiya, few more months left, and i would like to leave on a happy note with everyone. Tahan lah...



Guess thats enough complaining for the day!!! enjoy the weekend lah... just lost my mood by the change of the race date... but life goes on I guess, looking ahead!!!

Sian Sunday!!!

My Sunday was totally wasted, firstly because i woke up at 12.30 pm, wasting the entire morning in my dreams... haha, then the rest of the day is pretty much ruined by the weather as it was raining and wet...

Guess the most useful thing i did today would be running, couldn't take the bordem at home no longer, so went out for a short run around the neighbourhood, came back saw my mum's fren, haha was praised for looking different, fitter they say, (which I dun really think so) but nevertheless, happy to be praised. That pretty much settles my Sunday, very boring isn't it... haha Actually wanted to go town, but well no mood to shop so i guess will be a waste to see GSS in this kinda mood... Was suppose to go to the Aussie Study Fair with a fren, but well, whats the point of going when you know you won't have a chance to study there in the first place... so didn't in the end.

My finger is recovering, put some chinese medication on it last night, and today its pretty much covered up... Love and Hate that chinese medication, Love it coz its heats external wounds really fast, but Hate it cause it really painful when applying it... Heez, but no pain no gain i guess...

Nothing much to write already... Allow me to end of with an interesting quotes i happen to find while packing my room today

When It looks Like I Have Failed

Failure does not mean i'm a failure,
It does mean i have not yet succeeded.
Failure does not mean i have accomplished nothing,
It does mean i have learnt something.
Failure does not mean i've been humiliated,
It does mean i dared to try.
Failure does not mean i don't have it,
It does mean i have to do something in a different way.
Failure does not mean that i am inferior,
It does mean that i am not perfect.
Failure does not mean that i have wasted my life,
It does mean that i have an excuse to start over.
Failure does not mean that i should give up,
It does mean that i must try harder.
Failure does not mean that i will never make it,
It does mean thati need more patience.
The only people who never fail are those who never try.

Bad Hand Day!!!

What better way to start of my weekend then to get and injury... haha sliced my thumb by the side of the boat today at training... lucky time trials is over when it happened if not its gonna be a screwed day for me man... Here is one photo of my hand.The day didn't start off good for me actually, poured heavily as i head out for training, so had to get to training ground half wet. Then time trial, was first group up for the day, and did a super lousy timing of 2.17 mins, super pissed with myself, so had another go and ended with 2.09mins, slightly better but guess can be better. Anyway, its was the paddle back where my hand slipped from the oar, and hit the side of the boat, which so happen to have a slit. Didn't think much of it at first and carried on paddling, until i started feeling a sharp pain on my hand and i looked. Blood was covering my oar (the part that i was grabbing) and my hand was bloody and stuff... Heez, with that, i got to rest all the way back to shore as the rest of them paddle their lungs out... hahaha.

here is more footage of my injuried finger... haha nothing better for me to do i guess....

Beautiful Sunday

Today, went for a little outing with my section today, pretty much a birthday celebration for Jasmine and Adeline, as their birthday is around the corner... then caught the movie, "Over the Hedge" not bad, got a good laugh over it... heez.. saw zhi xun and gf also... haha... Anyway, got myself a Queen CD... very nice... starting to like it alot coz many of the songs have very nice lyrics.

After that got to borders for some Fish and Co. honestly, didn't really enjoyed the food there, other then the oysters. Got the Grilled Seasoned Fish, which is super salty, and the service sucks, from the moment we stepped in, we waited for a table, then waited for utensils, waited for water (which i requested from then for at least 3 times) waited for sauce, and even waited for the bill... haiz... poor poor service...

By then, it was time to call it a day... enjoyable day overall... haha maybe won't happen for awhile as everyone is busy with things, especially me, as i am busy preparing for SAF day and the brunei trip... nevertheless, it will be much remembered...

Birthday bash dash my aim...

First of all I have to wish my best friend, HERBERT a very Happy Birthday, and hope you enjoyed the night... though its pretty disappointing that you got drunk that quickly... missing all the fun on the dance floor... heez.. oh yah, and another friend HuiFen, heez so glad she still remembers me after all these while (4 to 5 year no contact??? cannot remember)

Had a very short week, worked for three days, but with the training we been through, our week have never been longer... Had a very sinful evening yesterday. Met up with bert and gang after work for a celebration. Had sakae sushi, had a whole table of good food, and since i only had 5 slices of bread the entire day, naturally i tucked in whole heartedly. After which, went to Obl O to party the night away... haha and when u get to this kinda place, alcohol is a must. Had a few glasses of beer, a shot of tequila and 2 tequlia pops. haha, and just dance the night away to all that R&B music... then had to dragged the already drunk herbert home, which is about 3 am... Lihao allowed me to drive myself home from herberts place... haha got to drive his mercedes. its fun experience but also stress since its a posh car... haha but at least i am getting the hang of auto cars. Still enjoy manuel cars thou.

There goes my no beer/alcohol diet. Today, got up at about 1pm, the latest since a long time ago. which destroyed every bit of my plan of going tanning. but didn't matter, the objective is to relax today and i did.. at home... in the comfort of my room infront of my computer. Tml there is dragonboat training... woo... hope it will be fun... as for the rest of the day will have to see, guess i haven't got anything installed... heez.. Thats all for the day i guess... Ciaoz

Monday B!!!

Its not really a big Blues... but things never seem to be good today, I guess partly caused by the cough that i had since last thursday... Spoiling all my plans, to go gyming that is... This morning, went Sentosa hoping to get a tan that I got last Monday, but apparently the sun was in the mood for some fun as it played a game of hide and seek with me, therefore didn't get the tanning session i wanted, went for a few laps in the sea instead before making my way back to mainland for some SUBWAY!! just love it... heez

Pamered myself with a puma t-shirt and settled something at the bank before making my way home... was dead bored at home, and can't go to the gym due to my cough... (trainers advised) but still cannot resist the urge, so went for a light jog around the neighbourhood instead and some light circuit training at the estate workout area, chin-up and stuff like that...

Haiz, burnt my weekend for the stupid horses... at the turf club i mean... Oh yah, and this is out to the Singapore Turf Club Management. I am really unhappy for the treatment i got from your staff for yesterday event. No matter what our band was there to provide a service for the event and its 2 days in a row, we are all tired and all... after the SIA Cup race as we are leaving through to another gate... having to carry the rather heavy bassdrum after a tiring day, movement will tend to get abit slower.. but we still made an effort to move fast as everyone is dying to get home, however as we were moving to the gate, a staff started to rush us in a pretty harsh manner... I mean i dun see no reason for that at all... I mean i can understand that there is still another race, but i mean we are not like in the way or anything. And whats with the harsh tone man, we dun owe you guys the service... It really sucks man... that all I have to say... No words of gratitude and we still have to take in attitude from the staff like we begged for the job... I am still pissed even when i bring up the matter now... But i guess i am not going to blow it up... since its such small matter, and its most probably my last performance for them... Just need to let it off my chest...

Alright, i guess thats all for this evening... more to do tml in camp.. have a wonderful week ahead all... Oh yah, i got to know recently that i have many 'secret readers' in my blog.. heez... do tag ur views yah... heez... thx... Cheers

Dame... down with slight flu...

Argh... Shoo Flu Bug... go away, find yourself another owner, I am not strong enough to have a Flu Bug as a pet... haiz, had sorethroat yesterday, was about to start so i kept drinking water like there is no tml, lucky for that, the sorethroat subsided (with the aid of kris medication too)... Now its the irritating running nose... argh.. hate the feeling of falling ill. Means that so many activities have to be put on hold... Tml gym session will have to wait till further notice from my body condition...

I am working every other day except vesak day and today. Why!!! this kinda life really make me sick... Worse of all the PAY SUCKS!!! haiz...

Anyway, lets not talk about that anymore, went sentosa this morning, was really go weather for a tan, loved it... think will drop by there again next week. The beach was all quiet and there is plenty of room for me to bask in the sun... haha and suprisingly, there are quite a number of girls there... haha goes to show girls knows about enjoying life man.. heez... Stayed for a couple of hours, then made my way back to mainland for subway lunch. Then, walk around harbourfront for awhile before heading home. Been rotting since i stepped home... thats pretty much how i spent the entire monday, @ home. Can't really blame me, coz its pretty much a working day and all my frens are working. Will be heading down to gym later on, just had dinner so not really wise to start workout straight away. Going to start my workout regime again, get into shape fast... for the coming competition, left my exercise guide in camp, so guess i will plan it tml in camp then... well, meanwhile i guess thats all folks, hope u guys have a great start of the week...

COG Main!

Finally after so many practise, its over, haha my debut performance at COG main as a Bass Drummer, fumble abit here and there, but overall its was not bad, or so i hope to think, and from feedback from the ORD personnels that was there to watch. Was tiring and having some difficulty gripping the sticks due to the glove, but now, just glad everything is over.



Here is a pic of the drumline for today, of which only 2 are real percussionist, the rest are woodwind converts, me inclusive. Its kinda fun trying out new things once in awhile, but then again, bassdrum its a really tough job... heez...

Yesterday, finally got my first taste of driving an auto car, which i really can conclude, its like driving a toy car... haha and very lazy, but its real fun.. Oh yah, by the way its my friend, Herbert's car... so kind of him to trust me... heez.. thx bro... My debut going into the expressway too, going at 90km/hr woohoo, must say its pretty fun... guess i really could use for experience... Today, another camp fren of my Zhi Xun let me drove his Lexus RX300, one of my dream car, who would have thought that i would have the chance to drive it man... haha wonderful experience, but due to my lack of experience and taking its for granted that the camp is empty, i neglected all my safety checks, which is something that you CANNOT forget, not matter where you are.. Thx Zhi Xun for telling me off... appreciate its... experience gained... heez...

Hmm... tml off, guess i will head of to Sentosa for a tan, and yes, its alone... well sometime when you got to go, u got to go, u get what i mean... hees (if not nvm)... and GYM... haha tml start of training day man... have bout 6 weeks left... so have to work extra hard... hopefully can get something back this time around... Alright then, thats all i guess... will keep updating once i got the time... meanwhile stay happening everyone... Cheers.
