Sigh its all too familar to me now. I can already
see the similarity to it, i shld have guess it from
the start. And if all goes along what history had
presented to me before the end i'm afraid is nt far away.
As much as the entities are different, they are
placed under the same situation and circumstances
and have reacted the same way thus far, so what are the
odds of the final concluding chapter? As much as
I don't want to see its final hours coming, it will
come. Only a matter of time now, tomorrow? nxt week?
next month? next year? next decade? or maybe until
we grow old and die together as One( which i'd prefer)

Thoughts are my weakness and my strength. Damn thesse
thoughts of mine....

Whee ok this is abit late but POP LO!!!
Well pop was definitely a memorable experience
being part of it this was how i felt. Even though
we knew that its onli 2 mths and that we have 1yr8mths
more to go, but at the end of it everyone felt
as if army has ended, i'm sure at the back
of our minds everyone knew the sad fact.
But no one cared really! This was what i saw
after the parade, grudges disapearred, all forms
of irriation and unhapinness with each other just
vanished. We were all too happy in the occasion
that we were able to juz forgive and forget
all the screw ups people made. That was the miracle
i saw after the parade, when we took the photograph
definitely a beautiful picture painted, one that is pure
and untainted by any sore feelings.


ok the angle of the camera is pretty bad but better than nth!



























So what have i done after pop. Well basically
i've been paddling again! Twice a day, it really
feels great to be back training again, haha but the
juniors have improved got trashed quite badly =P
But thats ok! Anyway training has kinda taken
its toll on me, my body's feeling very sore from
resistance training. I'll be taking a break from
training tomorrow by order of Mdm!(of course Mdm's
a smokescreen).

Oh oh and i'm gonna be the coxswain for the girls
dboat during their national schools which is on 23rd
Sat at Bedok. So whoever reads this go down to support
them k? Haha. But when Shaun asked me to be the coxswain
instinctively i asked who was supposed to be the one
and he said Winnie, immediately I had the feeling
oh shit and i felt damn bad for in a way "stealing"
it away from her..Sigh..Sorry Winnie! =(

Oh and i heard my team girls are having a sleepover
tonight at some hotel..you heard me HOTEL!!
Rich futts haha hope you girls enjoy urselves, and
pass me the paddles soon! Ur juniors need to use them
and dun worry they'll be in good condition, if not
you can juz come back and scold them. Oh toking about
dboat the guys learn some new stroke, heard its damn
effective but also very aerobically tiring because the
pace is rather fast.

Anyways more about life recently. After passing out
many people have been asking me where am i being posted
to. Everyone's first question was OCS? Well of cos i said
i didnt know and i did not want to get in there. Their first
reaction would be huh y? or siao ah? But now let me pose
you this question for you guys out there what is the
reason that you want to get into OCS? When i ask
people that many cant give me the answer immediately
they'll say stuff like cos gd lor! or why not?
But typically it'll be because of the money, but
folks why chase after such materialistic things?
Probably thats why there had been an article
abt officers being incompetent, even i personally felt
that some officers in OCS dun even deserve to be
an officer, they dun even act like a leader
just because they went thru 9mths of shit, they deserve
it? All that shows is that they're capable of going
thru a tough life, and not that they're a good leader.
So for those who'd be reading this post and hv yet to enter
the army. Ask yourself this, what is the main reason that
you want to get into OCS? Is it the real desire to lead
men? Or izzit the prestige that u'll attain? Think about it

On the lighter note, gonna watch fantastic 4 nxt week!!!!!
Yay! Didnt really appreciated the first show, didnt you
guys felt that the storyline was all cramped up, like there
wasnt a totally nice plot, the flaw was covered up by
fantastic 4 itself and also by jessica. I dunno
i seem to notice such stuff more often nowadays =)

Wow! 9 weeks are almost up and POP is next tue!
Come to think of it i've not touch this blog
for a damn long time. So well here i am!

Alright BMT experience for me have definitely in
a way change my character a little, in a way it has
really allowed me to view things in different aspects
and allowed me to think alot more in tiring situations.

Well achievements for me, would mainly be my IPPT.
Haha became the company's best pt. And I've nv ever
ran a timing in my entire life, even when i was in canoeing,
clocked a 8.41 for my final ippt.

Well BMT for one wasnt as tough as i had pictured it to be.
It was definitely a fun experience, getting to shoot
real guns, throw live grenades getting to gay around a little.
And of cos getting close to nature, to the point that i hate
field camps....felt so cut out off from the world.

But one thing that i'm definitely thankful about army is
that it has really made me treasure my loved ones more.
Took me away from them too long that i wanna spend
more time with them. Kinda ironic like when i was still
schooling i would kinda like avoid talking to my
family. But now in army i would really love the talks
we have with each other, and i would try to even have longer
talks with them.

Well i definitely had my fair share of things in BMT, experienced
confinement because i misfired....(but during confinement i played
ps2, watch dvd and slp on sofa). Seen "Casper" (u can come and
ask me abt that personally if u still dunno).
Had a standby company line! which extended to the parade square...
Had operation ninja which my sgt calls it(simply
means cleaning perm staff block toilet...)
which all sums up to a shit load of saikang. Also seen a
guy called DECEMBER, no kidding ok! I am not making that up!
it came out right from his very own mouth!

Before i entered the army i had in mind that i
wanted to cheong for OCS, but den again seeing
the crap lucas is going thru, i gotta pass! Well
it is true that u'll pass out with pride and prestige
and all that honour thing. But i can do without that
i wanna be a PTI, wah 8-5 job! And i heard that its
also very physically demanding :) so officers u can have
your prestige for all i care, while i stay at home and watch
my TV. But main purpose for all that free time is to carry
on training, like gym or possibly rowing. Army is like my
pitstop for canoeing, i still do train on weekends whenever
possible, gonna cheong for it once i'm out of army.

So gonna have 2 weeks of block leave! Hopefully i get
posted to sispec, for my PTI cause which i hope is available.
So i'm planning to train twice a day, to catch up wif the juniors
who are like trashing me now, so you buggers give me 2 weeks
and i'll be back! well hopefully i'm nt NATO. Oh yeah i need
to shop too, getting bored of my clothes, and fantastic 4!!
Whee gonna watch that next week i tink?

I seems that this place has been rather
empty for quite some time...

Army is still the same-

Tiring, Messy, Rushing, Insufficient sleep
-Repeat Cycle-

And who says you dont have to study in the
army. We are studying and studying and have
test test test all the time.

I actually think i study more stuff here in
OCS then in AC. LOLs

That how everyday life is like.

And so many little things to do that sucks up
all the little precious time you have, doing
up you own ( rather big ) notic board, etc etc.

Social night is coming, i'll have to find a
date ( or face possible death ) and SOON(which
is supposed to be now but i'm still too lazy).

Why can't my date just drop from the sky.





Joking




Lucas Out!

P.S
Army shows your true character. It doesn't matter
if you can do a gazillion pullups, or run mighty
fast. Its the little things that count. Just touch
your heart and ask yourself that when you are exhausted
and completely shagged out, do you sit there and wait/ask
for someone to fill your bottle for you, or do you stand
up and offer to fill your buddies' bottles for them? I've
done the latter... have you?

Hi there!
haven't updated ever since i entered OCS cause life is so terribly busy. Just booked out not too long ago and have to bookin in about 2 more hours time :( Finally handed over my appointment as cpc (cadet platoon commander) after serving a hectic 3 weeks (should have been 2 weeks max). Its not the greatest feeling having to run around shouting out commands and making sure that they are done. Its worst that the last week had field camp. Had food poisoning the day we returned, i puked out my dinner while cleaning my weapon and had diarrhoea through the night.I felt really weak, and had to fall out during last parade. I really couldnt take it anymore the next morning and had to go to the medical centre where the doctors placed me on a drip. Another guy from my wing got the same illness too. It took 6 jabs (agonising ones, cause they were trying to shift the needle around to look for my vein :( ) to get the needle in, cause my veins are said to be rather tiny. So my arms on each side each has 3 tiny holes now. LOL. I was on the drip for about 5 to 6 hours. The medics were really nice and they got us food and drinks. Felt so much better after the drip. There is so much happening each day that everyday tend to pass by in a blur. The only thing i can remember about each day is that it was a tiring one. My mini block break is coming soon next week and i might just ask you seniors out for a meal. Try to keep your saturdays free ok!

Good Friday today! but wasnt that gd for my knee...
For some reason my right knee starts to hurt like

get well by Monday! Monday's the day man! NS life!

I'm gonna row tmr, i cant take it! I'm somehow on fire
haha i'm seriously considering to be a weekend warrior

5 more days till I enter the new life, life w/o hair! Haha~
A regimental life, life on a resort situated on a beautiful
island in singapore called Pulao Tekong

Now folks~ this resort is going out at a very special promotion
3mths totally free! Tell me where will u get such a gd deal?
Everything will be fully accomodated with all you can eat offer!

U are even able to get in touch with nature, and learn the different
kinds of vegetation that exist in Singapore. Trying the plants on is
not a problem at all! Put on as much as you want! To the extent where
no one can see you if u're squating in the bush~

WAIT theres more! Other than the lush vegetation, beautiful scenic
waters, we have.....creepy crawlies. YES! U heard me! We offer all
sorts of insects, not just any ordinary insects.....HUGE insects
we have centipedes almost 30 cm long and 4cm thick! If u're lucky
u'll even get to see our gigantic collection of spiders.

Now do enjoy the beautiful walks that u'll take on along with the
rest of the folks there! U'll even get to learn some songs too!

----------

Haha alright i feel so retarded now, just felt like writing those
for fun! probably cos its now coming to 1am and i just watched
letters of iwo jima. Anyway i'm kinda looking forward to NS, at
least i'll have stuff to do and wont be lazing around doing nothing.
Anyway i doubt once i enter the army i'll have time to visit the team
i'll probably be too darn tired, and slp my sat away~
means byebye Peiyi... :'( i'll be back!!!!

p.s: i've got this feeling that i'm so gonna get slapped by ppl

3 more days to my POP, having been through so much pain, laughter and excitment, its hard to put all these in words. The crazy ass tribal dance,Falcon coy and Eagle coy shouting cheers for each other from building to building, doing punishments for stupid reasons, and so much more.

I will miss this little island,

where it is 1 degree hotter then Singapore
where huge wildboars run wild
where almost everything is a chargeable offence (lol just kiddin)
where it is OK for guys to walk in their bunk in their underwear
where Charlotte keeps getting us punished cuz she keeps building cobwebs
where the medical office is the hottest place to be
where the whole school erupted in cheers when Singapore scored a goal
where the guy next to you is your buddy
where we wash our clothes in a little bucket
where the pay is less then my pocket money
where bargaining with the canteen uncles/aunties is a fine art
where massive tupoking takes place
where the early morning is freezing
where the nicest stars in Singapore can be seen
where the low flying commercial planes' lights can be seen beaming into the night sky
where any girl (except canteen aunties) will catch the attention of all the guys around
where your wife (rifle) is more than twice your age
where you can see what kind of person you really are
where we enjoy shaving our hair short
where we appreciate the little luxuries in life
where every insect is of monster proportions
where mosquitos bite through your thick clothing
where you really get to know how bright the moon is
where boys grow up

Ah wells been thinking about this issue for a while
now, think its probably time i take a break from the
team and just leave them alone and stop bothering
them. Guess cos theres probably nothing more i can
do to help, i have already exhausted all my abilities
for them already. Besides they have coaches and
grand seniors who are much more experience,
knowledgeable in all sense juz much better. Guess
its time that i probably really juz enjoy the rest of
my time, as in really enjoy it on myself! Unlike what
i use to go down to mac wif them watch them train,
train wif them, help them out until the wee hours
where i'd have my dinner at like 9pm? Its time...

P.s. sometimes i dunno whether what i'm doing is
really appreciated by the team, or they juz find me bothersome.

p.p.s all i wanted to do was to come down as a snr to
bring my jnrs to the nxt phase, because i nv had my
snrs coming down to help us out.

Hi all! these 2 weeks has been mega busy
for me! 2 outfields in 2 weeks, so its like
approx 9 days out of 14 that i didnt shower!
so many wild boars on the last 3 days! so
exciting lol. learned so much during these
few days outfield, even on how people work,
how people become selfish and stuff when they
are shagged out and stuff. OH, and the wiildddd
boars are huge!!!! and fast!!! and their skin so
thick cuz they just walk through the wires like
nothing ( the wire normally would cut you easily
if u are not careful )

There's some bug spreading around these few
days and many people are getting sick. on
one day almost half of the platoon (25 people)
are on the sick list. i didnt got heat, but i puked
the night before outfield probably from heat
exhaustion from the day's activities. Army is
enjoyable until now i guess, the the CNY that
is coming means a long 4 days bookout!! Yeah!!

Really hope to meet all the seniors to have a nice
meal, was thinking of CNY but its just too packed...
sigh maybe next time.

Finally picked up those running shoes today!
Quite proud of myself i did twice the distance
of my normal runs. And considering the fact
that i've not run for about a month, other
than the cooper test on monday where i got
trashed by my jnrs completely haha. Did
about 9km run.....ok it was more of a jog.
Well we gotta learn how to walk(jog) before
we run right? =D and i took less than 45mins!
YAY! Well my legs feel damn wobbly now haha.
I must find the determination to continue my
runs, and OH! i found out where the SAFRA is
gonna be built and so near my house la!

Oh i just found out, i cant really do monkey bars,
i was like struggling to get across it! Oh my
i should spend more time playing at the playground! HAHA

The jnrs...oops i mean snrs now had their
cross-country today, quite pleasing results
not bad i must say. But must remember
we are canoeist/kayakers nonetheless!

I need to get new shoes! Need ta do some shopping
at Queensway my shoes are seriously worn out
almost all the rubber sole is gone! Left with the
white part onli nt to mention the number of holes
on my shoes better get a new pair if not i may
risk injuring my own legs.

Hi all!! i really miss you guys!!!

Really!!!

:D

Army is..... tough... yet not tough....
physically wise.... is.. NO
i like did only 40 pushups together
in the last 2 weeks??? i've really
become so much fatter inside.
Its like they really stuff you with
food every few hours. waking up at
5.15 everyday is also not a fun thing to
do. The worst is probably that your every
move is confined within a very small boundry.
you cant even step out of the building to
do your own running or something.

Everything is also done in a rush, reason
being the normal 12 weeks BMT in cut
short to 9. It all mentally draining.. but
luckily all my bunkmate are great!
partly being everyone from JC. Lots
of really smart and fit people in my section,
like raffles and HC. Oh and like 4 canoeist in
my platoon!!! me, kat teng PJ, mic
from CJ which are both in the same finals as me.
jing heng from raffles!

LOL nice.

I really think army is quite ok, and that it can
even be quite enjoyable (NOt to many though),
although many a times it could be quite mentally
draining.

haha, really hope to see you guys again soon,
will be booking in tomorrow evening, for the
start of a 6 days no showering, mosquito infested,
muddy and sweaty trip. ( not to mention no lights,
HP or any other things. Yes, no such thing as a sleeping
bag too)

Oh, and train hard Juniors! or should i say seniors? lol

ps. Booking out was so cute today, everyone shouting and
singing while boarding the ferry and bus. :D

To all you AC Male canoeist, your hottest and most

Went to row in the morning today, and was invited by Shaun
to train wif nus team. So why not? Just to give it a shot and
to see how its like. I was totally reminded of the days i was
training as an AC rower, because the prog was pretty shiong,
or maybe i was juz weak( i'm pinning on the latter). Need to
work on my endurance and my stroke too, i found it quite hard
to keep to my stroke when i'm doing sprints or fartleks need
to work out the discipline to keep it. They seem like nice ppl,
thats probably cos 2 of them are my snrs. Well nus sure has
a better social skills than ntu haha. Because i foresee that the
trend of national rowers joining nus will still continue, so ntu
better buck up! But still i have not decided which to go, nus?
because of the canoeing team? ntu? Because its near my
house?(Just a few bus-stops away). Ah wells still got NS
to go through and gotta wait for my results to come out
which i'm nt having high hopes for.
But it doesnt really matter all glory to God.

Outings, shopping trips, movies, sports,
class reunion chalet, countdowns, computer
games, TV, korean dramas. There's still
so much i want to do! Will crash orentation
tomor. Just bought a Discman. Its really
Old school but i have to cause MP3s are
banned in camp. Actually i realised that
the sony discman looks really pretty! Also
the batt output is fantastic! 43hrs! and with
the external batt port with 2 additional 2 AA
batts it becomes 120hrs! How cool is that!
Especially since my headphones saps batteries
like a hungry SUV. Like even the most
efficent MP3 i can think of is only 20hrs max.
Not a big problem if you could charge it anyway
But the camp bans chargers :( How weird is
that?

omg, Andrew and sheng was back from camp but
i didnt manage to contact them to chat :(

They say most people who go to ns would at
least come out swearing. I wonder if i would
turn out like that?

Arh!!! i still cant jump far enough for my ippt
gold!! i want that $200 bucks bonus!!

Just upgraded my com with a new powerbox
and graphics card. Thanks Bro for paying for
the card :)

Eating as much junk food as i can!!

Juniors, train hard!! seniors, grandseniors
and ted and bill are all rooting for you!!
*especially dragonboat for me! winks

Seniors!! have fun the the army guys
and all the girls all the best in U!

Still so much i want to do!!

All my friends i hope we will still stay in
contact for years to come.

My bottle of white wine will be reserved for
team 2006. May we open it for our christmas
reunion in 2009 :)

Seniors and grandseniors become successful!!
and donate to the team!

Oh and the adult fare is KILLING me.

As christmas approaches, and so is the new
year. I wonder where fate will lead me to next.
There is just so much i really want to do. And
the more i think about it, more and more
questions and uncertainty starts to surface.
I dont think i would normally think this way,
but the 2 years i am to spend in ns is certainly
going to leave a gap in my life.

- will the seniors still be in contact?
- how will it feel like to meet female friends
again after ns and realising they are 2 years
your senior.
- will i still come back to help the team?
- Looking at the way local Unis train for
dragonboat, which i dont agree on, will
i make myself suit the training so i can
row again or will i just not bother?
- will i even try out for another D'boat
team?
- With the money earned in ns, I will definitely
return to my first love, cycling. If so, will i take
up the xc dicipline or the road dicipline?
- If i were to train for races, would i still have time
to take part in other activities? eg. canoe polo
- How will i be like after NS?
- After placing relationships behind my mind for
these few years, will i be ready to have someone
in my life again?
- What will i expect of myself?
- how will the team be like 2 years later?
- will i be still in contact with the grandseniors?
- Will i still be as happy-go-lucky?
and so many many more.

So many questions.

Only the next 2 years will answer them.

2009, i await your coming.

The College Survival Guide

Self entertainment

Entertainment
1.the act of entertaining; agreeable occupation for the mind; diversion; amusement

2.something affording pleasure, diversion, or amusement, esp. a performance of some kind

What do you do when you are stuck in the
bio lab for 2 whole hours or pure tutorials
without any pratical? Self entertainment of
course! This skill requires you to exhibit
creative thinking and stealthy techniques
to evade detection of the tutor. Success is
rewarded with... erm... childish enjoyment.

Example 1:



Example 2.






Please don't get caught!
Contant laughter at all times :D

Well Desmond, in one more day,
It will be my turn to send my sis
to New York. LOL. and yes, I too
am going to hijack her room :D
Went out today to gym and swim
at jurong. Didnt asked anyone to
go with me this time. i actually
enjoy being with just myself
sometimes. u can do whatever
you want at your own pace :)

Anw after swimming, i saw this couple
walking out in front of me. And it
was like the guy was carrying 2
big bags, most probably the girl's
bag. The girl was like scolding the
guy all the way out. really scary.
She was like scolding all the Ah
Lian stuff and the guy just kept
quiet and followed. They were
like at most 15? vicious.

Oh yes!
I chanced upon these photos which
i wanted to blog about but didnt
make the effort to.

So....

i'll blog about it tomor. LOL

Had out all guys christmas shopping
trip yesterday. But Yiren was
uncontactable, and danny in Brunie
Spent the whole afternoon shopping
around for gifts but it kinda ended up
with me and desmond buying stuff.
I bought quite a lot of presents for
my whole family. Since they dont really
celebrate christmas, and i dont really have
anywhere to hind the presents, i gave it
to them on that day itself

A mouse for bro, cute water dispenser
for sis, a drifit shirt for dad and a korean
dramafor mum (which happens to be the s
ame drama which just started on that night.
on VV channel 55, starhub. i ended up watching
it with my mum till 5am. and yes this whole
afternoon too, i'm glad to say its finishing cuz its
more tiring then running. lol)

Just booked tickets to Curse of the golden
flowers a moment ago to watch with Ruth.
The papers were splashed with the photos
of gongli today.

wow

she is really pretty,
even at like 40. amazing. jay looks
a bit weird with his hair up, cuz his eyes
are kinda squinty and forehead a bit too big?
But he is still cool in morden clothes i think.
just not in ancient chinese dressing.

Left first after the game with the juniors
for the beach outing. Well its my first
class outing this 2 years, and I felt kinda
bad always having to skip them due to
my commitments.

It was a nice outing for me, making new
friends with the people at the beach,
and playing almost every sport there
is to play. And the sun too :) I missed it so
much ever since training was over.
Watched the musical fountain afterwards,
and it was really creepy from what I think.
The music resembled some brainwashing
teletubies music. Really creepy... and there
were all this extremely random and
disturbing images too. lol.

Went back to Vivo for dinner, but being
extremely indecisive, and having most
shops closed, we only settled for dinner
at Carl's Jr at like 11. Went home really
tired, aching, but contented :)

Weejin taught me something i never
knew though. How to catch someone's
attention. Just shout some random
person's name. The person should turn
over to see what you are shouting about.
Cause apprently there was
this weird girl who shouted "JUNJIE!"
at me. Well i guess it wasnt really
effective, I didnt even noticed.
Like only Weejin noticed anyway.
The world is really a weird place.

Oh, one of the new friends I made,
Daniel from SAJC is having this concert
for his church on the 21st. Tickets are free.
Anyone interested please contact me,
or tag me for more information.

And Desmond, I kinda have your experience
even if it was just a while. I think its partially
cuz we devoted 2 years of our life to this team,
and us not being directly invovled in it now
makes us feel left out. Maybe
you should start catching up with your
old friends again or catching up with some
of the life we kinda left behind when
we started rowing. And there's still the seniors!
Life is never dull :)

Stay Happy :D

Went back to sch today to play frisbee with the juniors, and realise that i should probably back out and leave them alone, as it is not my team so i guess felt pretty left out. So i decided to juz go home rather than joining them for lunch. Although many may think that its quite ironic for me as I am the one that spends alot of time with them, but yes i do feel left out. Even though its just a age difference of 1 year? But what i feel is really alot. I guess that applies to alot of grand snrs as well, maybe thats y so many of them dun ever come back to help out. Cant blame them sorta understand how they feel.

Well on the lighter side of things 2nd lesson of driving today, finally got the hang of it, and realise that cant purely juz listen to the instructor gotta experiment and try things out by myself to really get the hang of it.

Didnt go to church today, in the middle of the night i had diarrhoea, 1st time i woke up from my dreams juz to bomb the toilet, dunno whether izzit the nasi lemak, noodles or the soya bean drink.

Anyway i have been meeting alot of my juniors lately, they all seem to remember me as their CS, well i was the company's first CS, but the sad thing was i couldnt remember their names, all of them could still go Desmond CHHHNNNNGGGG somehow they always like to emphasise on my surname wif some wierd slang. And all i could do was juz go "Hey!! Hello!" in my mind i'm like thinking oh crap who's he? Whats his name?? Den aiya nvm lah cant rem juz go along. Haha maybe i shld go back to boonlay one of these days to visit them and see how things are running now, kinda miss the life there. SLACK!! and i remembered the sch magazine had this page full of quotes that was supposedly meant to motivate others or like tips to do well. And den i saw my name!! But the quote was sth like continuous practice or sth like that. Den me and my classmates were like HUH?!?! Thats becos my motto all along was aiya slack lah dun worry. I was a well known slacker. My teachers always thought that i was the most hardworking student in class but well fact is i'm nt i'm probably the worst!! Lets see..... for maths well Mrs Ng, i have nv done any of your work b4, i've always copied. Mr Yip you always said that u've done ur phy tys many many times over b4 O lvl and u even made us or sorta "encourage" us to do likewise. But fact is i've nv completed it b4 and i've nv really DO it i juz read thru the pages and like ok i'm done! For chem likewise, bio was different i really had to memorise those crap. For SS haha that was my first tactical planning, I actually plan out the safest and easiest chapters to study and shared it with my classmates and guess what it worked!! =D

But those were secondary sch days...JC?? Ha so different.. lets see Mr Yip and Mr. Daniel Khor hmmmm both can get pretty scary when they're angry, but DK juz hv mood swings and his jokes are like sooo nt funny but we juz laugh to appease him haha.

Oh i'm planning to get my hands on a PSP, gonna head down to sim lim square with my cous one of this days.

P.S. Lucas!! when are you gonna sent the invitations out for the dinner?!?!

Didnt row at all today, why? Partly cos i wanna take a break from the events that happen the past few days. But BUT the main reason is because i had my first driving lesson!! HAHA so fun!! Well nt exactly fun lah the uncle was quite naggy, but i suppose its gd lah, and realise i have a bad habit of nt putting both hands on the steering wheel :P And i didnt know that the accelerator pedal was so sensitive press a little can hear the engine go wwhhhoooOOOOOO!!!!! My mum suggest that i take of my shoe cos i can feel the pedal much better w/o my shoes on. Well still hv some problem wif the so called "bitting point" always tend to press too hard on the accelerator. Sorry to those drivers behind me today :X Its my first time travelling so slowly.....less than 40km/h but i guess thats impt if nt i'll go *BANG* some tree gets knocks down and maybe killing some other guys pigeon haha

closing to my AC life. It was short, too

the fact that i'm gonna build many
more lifelong friendships.
