Yeah! Finally changed my blogskin! Took me a while, but when i first set eye on this skin, i knew i wanted it.

A simple, yet nicely refreshing skin. =) Liked the colour, and also the words it portrays.

Anyway, must pay tribute to the person who designed the skin, even if i don't know who he is! DLockHeart! Good job with skin! Loved it.

Skin was found on www.blogskins.com

Dinner and TCC - 260107

Okie! Some of the pictures of our little get-together on Friday at Bugis Junction TCC ;)

TCC's Iced Coffee made me stay awake untill 5.30am... Gosh

Kaoz! She sure knows how to enjoy life eh!?

Happened to switch on the TV for a while just now... and... and there was SESAME STREET ! Woohoo~! Big Bird! Elmo! Cookie Monster! And Ernie! And so many others!

Hey really reminds me of good old toddler days when i would dutifully sit down in front of the google box every single days and watch these cute little puppet characters prounce around shouting ABCssss. And for god sake, i think i even sang along with them!

Okie, for the records, there were also Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle (my all-times favourite), Captain Planet, The Smurfs, Care Bear, He-man, Transformers and Masked Rider! The cartoons will start at 6.30pm sharp, and i remember rushing back home from school to watch them while having dinner! Heh. I guess those were in the late 80s.

Later on, in primary school, i was hooked on Power Rangers, Conan, Tom and Jerry and Pinky and the brain (It's Pinky and the brain, It's Pinky and the brain, It's Pinky, It's Pinky and the brain brain brain brain brain!! )! Haha..

(For information sake, i didn't have a television at home until i was at least 5 or 6...Poor kid then...Probably explains why i was so hooked on tv too~~)

Oh my god, i was such a cartoon junkie when i was little...

Back from IPT. There was a funny comment during the training.

We were doing "conditioning exercises" during one of the segment, which was like those times when we were still in the force and were doing repetitve physical trainings. In times like this, the PTI usually liked people to "Down and hold it there".

So, we were doing a couple of push ups, crunches and legs exercises with "DaHIT" (Short form for down-and-hold-it-there). And it comes to a point of time where we were going to do tug jumps (jumps where you lift your legs to your chest), and then someone proclaims "Jump and hold it there!" Wahaha! Hiralous right on the spot! Imagine the Matrix style one-legged jump up with two hands protruding and FREEEZZZEEE. Woohoo~!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Okie, now to my Tuesday and why i particularly loved it. Because Tuesday was my mum's off day and basically the whole family was home. =) Well, the thing is, i hardly experience family life nowadays, with mum working almost everyday. So i really treasure the times when the whole family can sit down and have a proper dinner together. (I am such a deprived-of-family-warmth kid you see)

Anyway, we spring-cleaned the whole house and even managed to go shop abit in the late afternoon at Hougang Mall! =) I am so proud to say that i managed the whole toilet cleaning by myself! (Hey, cleaning the toilet included scrubbing the basin/toilet bowl, scrubbing the walls and also the door okie!)

Dinner was simple, just fried rice and a bowl of chicken curry. Its just the simple things in life that matters at the end of the day isn't it? Why do we work so hard? Isn't it just so the simple things in life is made visible for us to appreciate, when we worked hard enough to realise that that's what we've been missing all along? I have experienced all this... and all i longed for is to have a simple, simple family life. =)

I looked forward to the end of the year, where i WILL finally graduate. Then, i will make sure that mum change job and make sure that Sunday is free for everyone in my family (mum, dad and me) to dine and stay together. Even if i have a girlfriend then, sorry, Sunday is for them, you can join in if you want.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I've being updating the blog a lot recently, that goes to show how free i am these few days. =) Nevertheless, i have decided to take up the task of doing some household chores while i am goofing around, so that will ease off some of mum's work =)

There's also plans to change the blogskin (again), that is, if i can find a nicer one. Thats all folks! Nitez... Tata!

Good day!

It has been GOOD DAYS since saturday!

Saturday was a day out with Ying Ying, went to TP, watched movie at Tampines Mall and had tea at a Hong Kong cafe. =D TP is still as happening, my god, felt so young when we stepped into the school, like once again back to 17-18 year old. We bombarded the Food Science counter with enormous amount of questions and even made paper crane for charity. ;)

We later watched Night at the Musuem, old show, but veerrry good! Hilarious! "SILENCCCCEEEE! My dumb dumb wants to speak." -Dumb dumb from Night at the Musuem. Wahaha. Ended the night with Lemon coke, milk tea and french toast at Central cafe. ;)

Sunday was a day of shopping! Shopped with Jieming... and his girlfriend at Marina Square and Bugis (why am i the lightbulb always >.<"). Good anyway, i got my new year clothing, just a piece of nice white short-sleeved shirt from Natural Project! Quite expensive at $49, but i think its okie, coz thats about all i want to spend for the new year. Oh, we then went to watch Apocalypto (or something like tat...), crap, its the worst show i watched this year! (Okie only 2 shows i watched this year), but its really crap loh. We thought Mel Gibson was starring in the show, but only at the end of the show, we realised taht hell no, he directed the show. We were like... "Chey!". Okie, thats about marks the end of my weekend!

Monday was okie i guess.

Particularly i loved my Tuesday. Shall blog about it in the next entry ;)

When everything seems to come to a standstill

Omg, for the past few months (or close to a year), i don't have to wake up wondering what i need to do for the day. Coz when i wake up, i either have to go to work, or go for my attachment and attend classes! Now i do.

Too much free time! And too little money to spend!

It suddenly feels wierd to be so free, but the feeling is good! I need a good break.

Anyway, the break's not gonna be long, workshop starting next week, whopping Wed-Sun! Can you believe it, who on earth runs workshops on Sundays! >.<" Anyway, after the workshop, it will be a good 3-weeks before classes officially starts!

The plan is to attend the workshops, assess my studies workload, then decide how much i need/want to work! My finances (if used sparingly) should be able to last me till... at least Apr? Ah, that's not long, but by then, i should have found some kind of part-time work eh? I just can't stand snopping around for too long, i need to do something.

So for now, its RRREEEELLLAAAAXXXX all the way! At least till the workshops! =>

Oh Vincent! Just to let you know! My last day of the semster is 1st June! So if i were to fly, i can fly 3rd June all the way to 17 June! And then spend my birthday in sunny California, drowning in the seas of white bikini babes! heh!

(I just wish/hope/pray that i will have enough to go to San Francisco in June... God, give me a winning 4D ticket will ya?)

I am officially an Honours student.

God knows how well i will do in this course... I sacrificed BIG for this programme! Gotta make god damn sure that it's worth it!

Wish me luck!

"终于还是走到这一天
要奔向各自的世界
没人能取代记忆中的你
和那段青春岁月
一路我们曾携手并肩
用汗和泪写下永远
拿欢笑荣耀换一句誓言
夜夜在梦里相约

放心去飞 勇敢地去追
追一切我们未完成地梦
放心去飞 勇敢地挥别
说好了 这一次不掉眼泪 " -"放心去飞" , 小虎队

Okie 啦！ 没那么严重！ 只是终于又走到那一天， 又要再次踏上分离和不知明的未来。。。 这首歌好像比较为自己而唱， 为自己感伤。。。 “放心去飞 勇敢地去追“ 也好似告诉我要勇敢地走下去！

也是挺感伤的， 短短的4个多月建立起的那段同事之间的友谊， 就这样到了个落幕。 在途中，有欢乐，也有悲伤， 有甜蜜，也有苦涩， 又烦躁, 也有温馨. 这么多这么多地回忆, 都会永照我心...

既然选择了这条路， 就应该勇敢地走下去! 我会加油的！学生生涯我来了!!

Yummy yum~! Our after dinner snacks at TCC!

3 of us!

John and Hwee Ping

Me and a ghost~! (This picture looked as if a ghost just flew in to take a photo with me)

None other than me~!

Because this picture was BLUR, so i did some funny things with photoshop and TADA!

...Lost in our own world...

With the help of Ying Ying yesterday night, i've managed to find about 20 song duets! Woohoo~! I've always wanted to make a collection of duets, really liked them very much.

My iPod is now full of duets =)

(As promised Ying Ying, i will pass them to you!)

I took my IPPT test today. Result was horrendous.

Shuttle run: "10.3s"
I didn't put in 100% effort, i think i can run faster the next time. 0.1s to achieve 5-points.

Sit-up: "39"
Amazing my stomach didn't cramp when i did 39 situps. Coz when i did 20 at home, i have stomach cramp. But 39 is not good enough! 40 will be 5-points le!

Standing Board Jump: "230cm"
I am amazed by myself that i can still jump 230 without any practice for the past 1.5years! But the aim is 242cm for 5 points!

Chin up: Official score "1", but i did 3! Serious!
Okie... The aim is to do 4! To pass at least. (Btw, the machine is very strict...)

2.4km run: "15.00min"
Omg! This is a disapointment! I used to run 11.40 ya~! And to top it off, its not as if i have not run for the 1.5years, just that i did not run in a 2.4km pace mah.

Anyway, i didn't feel that i put in 100% for the run too~! Coz i wasn't even panting when i finish the run. If i chiong, could i have achieved at least 13.00min?


Okie, now i am more motivated to work out.

Some pictures update::

Like the only decent pictures we took on the KTV day.

And finally... ... ... ... My new haircut...:

Haven't been posting anything since my so called "New Year Resolution"... So... Maybe i'l rant a little today. Heh.

I have had a couple of activities over the past few days... but sadly, there were no pictures! So sad! I LOOOOOVE taking pictures okie... Capturing memories to be kept forever.

::Tues (020107)::
Went for KTV with Liling, NianNian and Jiaqi, after that went for some coffee while we wow through Jiaqi's pictures taken during her 4day trip to Hong Kong (again...). Got them to shop around a little but didn't get anything in the end, as usual, i shut off after 1 round of browsing around... i m NOT a shopping person!

::Wed (030107)::
Back to work... Zero motivation man. ZERO. Went to meet some army friends in the evening. Ate some Fish n Chips near Riverwalk and later drank coffee at TCC. We were suppose to meet at Funan, so as i was bumping around waiting for them to arrive, i saw someone in my ex-unit's t-shirt, was wondering who that was initially until i realise "wah lao, its Sia!", man couldn't regconized him sia!

::Thu (040107)::
Kong Han last minute called me to meet so that he can pass me Jieming's Death Note comic... Its like call me at 6.30pm, meet me at 7.15pm loh! Okie... Meet him... Initial plan was to meet him, take stuffs, go. But ended up chatting at Dhoby Gault MRT Station control. Oh, DBG is a very good place to bump into people! Just standing there, i met NianNian! Then met Marcus (an army friend whom we have not seen since NDP2005!) and later bump into Logan (another army friend whom we have not seen since ORD!). Hmm...

Anyway, i had a bad day at work, glad that i could talk to Kong Han too~~

::Fri (050107)::
Initial plan was to go home on time, go jogging and meet Wenjie, Junming and Samuel for overnight mahjong! Ended up accompanying Ying Ying for dinner, facial products shopping and desserts at AMK market @.@". Okie, there goes the plan to jog again... But its okie, i am glad to be able to accompany friends. Oh, 甜品之家 的 花生糊 和 芝麻糊 都好好吃喔~！

After that, it was overnight mahjong at Samuel's place! 12am-7am mahjong game and i won... $1.50. Bo Hua... 如果不是在最后一局Samuel胡了我满台“7对子”，我才不会只赢$1.50！!
结果大赢家是文杰吧。。。$10左右。

::Sat (060107)::
Sleep, blog, iron clothes, prepare for IPT Training on Monday! Oh i cycled to East Coast Park and back! I feel so healthy! Should do it more often. The stretch of road along Hougang Ave 3 to Eunos is a killer, my legs almost give up on me! Uppppp slope.... Down slope. Uppppp slope... I was going so slow until i think the cars passing by me must be thinking "Lousy don't cycle la!" But the return trip was much easier! Heh. I even out-cycled a SBSBus (was trying to compete with it to see who gets to Hougang faster! Moltivation to get home!)

Oh... There is this new Cable-ski thingy in East Coast, so coool! I like! Pity i can't swim well... so i'm pretty scared of falling into the water and drown... =( Maybe i should start practicing my swimming, anyone wanna swim?
