Almost winner.

Damn! Almost get to 过个大肥年啊! Today's 4D 2nd prize: 1366. My number: 1466. Its tough huh? No worries! I'll try again next time! Ahahaha!

Seems like I haven't been blogging for quite sometime... Too much happened or rather I'm too lazy/busy to blog. January is a raining month. Especially the last few days of the month, been raining non-stop!

Anyway, let me start by what I did today. Went to Haji Lane with Lynette, Zhao & HP! Quite a chill place, with all the shops along the road. Its actually the 2nd time I been there, first was 3, 4 years ago, don't really remember. Next stop, we went to Geylang's 126, 搵到食 dimsum for dinner!

Round 1

Not enough! Add on!

It really lives up to its reputation. Thumbs up for this dimsum stall. Total bill $56.70. Not bad, not bad.

At Orchard yesterday for a final round of CNY shopping and I finally bought a pair of slim fit kaki pants which I've been looking up and down for.. Sky started pouring when we were at Cine, & if you know the layout of Orchard, Cine is kinda isolated... In other words we were stucked! Hahaha... So we ended up at *SCAPE and we... Took neo-prints! Ahahaha!

Hahaha, not bad huh? Do they remind you of your secondary school days? :D
Alright, time to rest, so tired! Driving in heavy rain drained lots of my energy! Yaya, I'm weak!

What am I?

What am I? A monkey? A mono-toned shorty? Probably failure-as-man suits me best. How can I let someone know that I love them, that I think of them or miss them? Should I constantly remind them via sms, verbal speech, e-mail, twitter or Facebook? I know, I know, actions speak louder than words. Maybe I haven't done enough, or maybe the things I've done are expected of me, aren't anything meaningful.

As the change in season approaches, the excitement of heading overseas follows. Want to head to a beach resort so badly... Chill out by the beach, swim in the sea with the fishes... Can't wait.
Cities are good too, like Bangkok, Taiwan, Hong Kong, etc. Of course that is if I am financially capable. Eat all the local delicacies, watch my girl shop her heart out... Well, at least there is something to look forward to in 2011...

Tomorrow seems like a day filled with challenges... Hope everything will turn out fine....

FML

Happy New Year!

Hohoho! First week of 2011 passed just like that! Hmmm, steamboat at Sophie's place on New Year's Eve, thanks Sophie for having us over! As usual, food was good, company was great.

Haven't been doing much in 2011 except growing a tummy and spending some cash. Haven't even thought of any New Year Resolution... But going Redang or Bangkok is definitely one of my main aims in 2011!

Busy week in camp whole of next week, seems like I need to take a day off pretty soon!

Merry Christmas!

Today is the 26th of December, also known as Boxing Day! In other words, Christmas was yesterday! Hahaha! Ok, this is pretty lame. Anyway, our Christmas Party was quite fun, with all the alcohol and stuffs. The only regretful thing was probably how we knocked out so early, hahaha!

I don't have any pictures of the party, but these are the presents I got for Christmas 2010!

Got this from Zhao via gift exchange! A photo album!

Priceless hand-made denim coin pouch from my beloved Lynette! :D

Nice right?! I love it!

& lastly, may the coming new year be filled with love and everybody's Christmas wishes come true :)

2 more days to Christmas, 1 more day of work! Hoo-ray!

Hohoho! I can feel it! The scene of Christmas is in the air! Tomorrow shall be the last day of work for me in 2010! Hip, hip, hoo-ray! Ahahaha! Well, Christmas seems to be a real great excuse to do lots of shopping! Too bad I'm trying hard to save up so that I can go to some cool places in 2011, so not much shopping for me ) : and I might just be a little tight on cash.

Talking about presents, do anyone think that when you attend someone's birthday celebration and buy present for them, it is expected of them to do the same when its your birthday? I think its ridiculous. I can't believe some people actually has this kind of mentally and called this as a form of "investment".

The above mentioned scenario is not directed at any individual soul or particular event. It is purely a reflection :D

A Picture is worth a thousand words.

Army spoilt my plan! Actually planned to stay overnight at the chalet from 19 to 21st... But due to some unforeseen circumstances, I had to switch my leaves to... Maybe 13th and 16th. And guess what!? I might not be-able to go on leave on the 13th as well! So much shits happening in this holiday season... Totally uncool!

I'd better start planning what school and course to enroll since my ORD date will be available on calender soon :D hahaha! No worries if your ORD dates aren't even printed yet, your time will come :D hahaha!

Oh, and I'd better pick a day to do some spring cleaning... Too many unwanted stuffs lying around! And lastly, can't wait for all the shits to be over and spend time with people that matters! But it doesn't mean you doesn't matter if I didn't spend time with you, its just not the right moment :D muahaha!

Contribute or get condemned!

Sometimes some people just think that the world revolves around them... They just want things and people to go their way and when it isn't the case, they start making noise and say that its unfair. The best part is they keep emphasizing about being fair to everyone but the truth is that the fairness they been talking about is merely the way they want things to be...

Sometimes fairness just don't matter. I won't hate on people just because they brought potato chips while I brought a whole turkey in a potluck event. I won't hate on people just because they brought home-made fried rice while I bought & made some freaking $80 worth of liquor into jellos. Its all about the contribution from every individual. I don't know about others, but if I brought something nice and tasty that everybody enjoyed, I do feel a little proud of myself and a sense of satisfaction.

But somehow, some people might go empty handed. For that, I don't know what to say. Maybe they are just fucked up or something worst. So please, have a heart, its everybody's effort that make things happen.

Not easy at all

Maybe I should stop driving. Its true, driving provide a high level of accessibility, conveniency, and above all, comfortability. If my car is not off-peak car, I would probably give myself excuses to wake up 30 minutes later and drive there, so as to avoid standing 45 minutes all the way to Boon Lay.

But that is not the point of this entry... What I want to say is that petrol is indeed expensive. I've always wanted to buy a $180 watch, and that is the cost of 3 full tanks. Now I know how come I can never get that excessive $180 to buy the watch.

Life is tough...

The post before I start updating regularly

Feels like I've been to many places and did lots of things recently. But strangely, can't seems to recall any to blog about...

Tried looking for some places to go during the last week of December cause LL (Lovely Lynette), :D ahahaha! Ok, ok, let's continue. She finally can have a week of break! However, the pricing is not very encouraging as it is the super peak period... So we figured to save the money for a better holiday next year.

And... We went skating! Was pretty damn fun! And all the good food we've been eating... Drained my pocket and filled my tummy by quite a bit! Sad thing is I don't seem to have the motivation to workout... Oh, there is this card game called Monopoly Deal out there now as well. Played twice with my friends, not bad, but I think its all about luck...

Went to the Police Heritage Tour last Friday. Was my department's cohesion. Quite interesting, learned about the history and structure of our police force. And I got this as a souvenir!

Its a 2-in-1 lazer pointer + LED light key chain! Totally love it! But LL isn't very pleased every time I use it... Its okay, shall use it secretly :D ahahaha! Childish lah!

Sophie's Birthday Celebration just ended last Saturday! The food was nice but meeting up with friends was nicer! Not bad, not bad at all. Went to Bliss @ Punggol Park to chill after that. Drinks are much cheaper compared to Bottle Tree Park. And Kenneth's classic knock out is a must blog! Time to get your key or door fixed Kenneth! :D Hahaha! A very nice place overall, can foresee myself going back there soon.

Lastly, do make some noise if you still read my blog! I know its boring due to the lack of pictures... Bringing a camera wherever I go should solve this problem but I don't like to bring a bag when I'm out and can't use camera phone cause I'm still in SAF... So... Please bear with me if you still read this blog! :D

Till then :D (wall of text)

Zoo Pictures!

Time for duty! Meaning, I'll be leaving home at 6:30am this morning(Monday), and come back at 6:30pm(Tuesday) tomorrow! 36 fucking hours man!

Here are the photos we took from our zoo trip! My 3 personal favorite, especially taken and edited by Lynette Seow.

Yawn! First time I see the Lion in the open area, probably because its feeding time!

Letting my new friend try out those shades.

After seeing them swim, I totally want to be a Penguin. & at the end of the day, we realised I wanted to be alot of animals.

Chilling by the riverside.

They are pretty funny, its like dragging its kid away from other young ones, saying, "don't play with them & get your ass back here!"

Er.... I got no idea what are they doing.

I know what you are looking at in this picture :D

Fly! Butter!

Looking sharp!

Cute little thing.

Look at its tongue, like a worm, used to lure fishes and snap! Done with a meal!

:D

Just became a butterfly!

Always wanted to keep one of these...

We caught their feeding too! The zookeeper basically tossed some fruits to them.

Singapore's Zoo trademark, Ah Meng!

Like twins! Ahahahaha!

Strangely... These 2 look like twins too!

Wah my tummy...

And lastly, let me end this with some white orchids! Don't they look pure and lovely?

Batam & Zoo

So much happened since I last posted. Once again, its my annual Batam View Resort getaway, from the 5th to 7th November. Not much changes, only higher & more charges on their facilities... Even the table tennis are going for $2 per 30 minutes... Total crap! Didn't do much, watched some DVD-s(Piranha 3D & Reign of Assassins) , ate lots of junk food, basically just chill and sleep.

And I guess the highlight so far was going to Zoo with Lynette yesterday. Our plan of stepping into Zoo at 8:30am was disrupted by some... Okay, it doesn't matter anymore, shall not elaborate on that. Anyway, we managed to get there by 10:30, bought our tickets and off we went, with the blazing hot sun upon us. The tall, huge trees managed to keep us in shade most of the time though. To be honest, I had not seen so many animals awake in my umpteen visits previously. Saw lion feeding, nothing much actually, the trainer just threw some meat into the enclosure, that's all.

Had lunch at KFC in Children World, I was pretty shocked by how small it'd become. Rain started to fall heavily after awhile and we just chilled there, looking into each others eyes :D
After about an hour or so, the rain turned to a slight drizzle and we decided to carry on with our journey at Fragile Forest. Had some 'close' encounter with the animals, pretty fun!
Caught the "Splash!" animal show thingy, nothing much, just an solo performance by Stan the seal. But its back flip did amaze me, hahaha! Had Ben & Jerry's at the entrance area before heading home. A thunderstorm came from nowhere when we reached Khatib.

It was an real enjoyable day. I had fun, but... Sigh... Might post some pictures next time... Till then.

Welcome November ( :

"我再也不愿见你在深夜里买醉
不愿别的男人见识你的妩媚
你该知道这样会让我心碎
答应我你从此不在深夜里徘徊
不要轻易尝试放纵的滋味
你可知道这样会让我心碎
既然爱了就无怨无悔
再多的苦我也愿意背
我的爱如潮水"

Phuket breakdown

I just came back from the dental... Apparently, the dentist said I'm suffering from a initial stage of gum disease cause I didn't have good oral hygiene... She said brushing twice a day is not enough, got to floss twice a day as well... Man, looks like I have lots of "brushing" up to do... And I have 4 wisdom tooth hiding in the gum and 1 or 2 decayed ones... Got to have them checked ASAP!

Patong, Phuket

Anyway, quick update about my Phuket trip. Traveled with hunky Xing Lun, noisy Min Yi and lovely Lynette. XL & MY arrived a day before us, I don't know what they did, probably something sleazy :D ahaha just kidding.

I love plane rides! Love the burst of sleep before it takes off. Didn't do much the day we touched down cause it was already 1am. Checked in, took a little stroll and went back.

Started second day with international breakfast, not bad! Then we went to get some essential stuffs from Carrefour before roaming the street, looking for deals to Phi Phi Island and a stage/musical called Fantasea. The place is like a entertainment park, with some game booth, restaurants, snack bars, etc. The outside of the auditorium is pretty dope though. Its like a huge ass palace with plenty of elephants status/cravings.

1 of the many nicely decorated fun house.

I think we blended in pretty well. Hahaha!

The Beach.

Got to admit, Patong beach was nice. The waves were pretty fun that day! Now I know how people can get dragged away by waves. I swear, some of them were at least 2 meters high! Oh, we went to the beach before Fantsea. Lots of touting going on. The pricing of their water sports aren't that attractive, so we decided to give it a miss. Wait till Sabah :D haha!

Here comes the highlight! We went to check out some nightlife after Fantasea. Shall not say much, go check it out yourself or ask me in person cause its really explicit :D hahaha! So we drank alittle and slept pretty damn late and guess what? WE MISSED OUR PHI PHI ISLAND TOUR! AHAHAHA! Feels like throwing away $160... Yes, $40 per person. Sigh... But its okay, we ended up exploring much of Patong, despite the strange atmosphere at certain part of the journey :D

This was what I did to the left over beers on the last day of our trip. Trust me, pouring chilled beer fresh from the fridge all over your naked ass is not easy as it seems. Especially when it gets into your eyes!

Awesome trip and place! I love Patong! Small town, interesting lives and good food! Totally don't mind going there again.

Do watch: Eat Pray Love

I watched a very meaningful movie yesterday, "Eat Pray Love", starring Julia Roberts. The reason I find it meaningful is a quote at the end of the show, "To lose balance sometimes for love is part of living a balanced life". How true... How true...

Might update about my Phuket trip soon...

Best Soldier of September!

What a week! Duty on Sunday totally sucked! But I'm glad its over... Another one coming up though, 17th of October... Damn.

Oh, And I won Best Soldier of the Month for September in my unit! Weee! That means I'll be rewarded with excused guard-duty for a month and 1 day off! Not easy okay, I stayed back in camp for 2 hours on Tuesday to prepare for my presentation slides and I had to present to CO and all the OCs! Balls shrink man! Hahaha! Anyway, just glad its over.

Ok brain dead now, got to go sleep, good night.

Believe it or not

Wow! So much happened these days... I've been spending time with a special someone. Its not a secret, just don't think too much :D hahaha! About my friends... We're all busy with our own stuffs... Army, girlfriends... Guess we just don't have enough time for everyone.

Hmmm what else can I say... Maybe post some pictures? Ahahaha!

September is here!

Quick update. I was down with chicken pox last week, should be in the recovery term now, with plenty of tiny "black" dots over my body. And of course, 2 weeks of MC is sibei song ah! Ahahaha!

Been playing this PSP game, YS Seven. Maybe its because I haven't been playing games, I'm kinda addicted to it, haha. Game-play is good though, RPG lovers shouldn't miss this.

Car is not yet back. Wonder when... And this chicken pox made me so damn lazy and weak. Totally disrupted my workout routine... But its okay, cause I'm going to come back stronger, better, faster! Hahaha! Okay! I'm going to interact with my weights now, peace out all :D

Accident

So much happened these few weeks. For example, I got into a car accident. Wasn't entirely my fault but still... It was my error hahaha!
This was what happened: A kid, around 14 - 15 years old, dashed across the road and his leg was hit by a car. He kinda did a somersault onto the pavement. I was pretty stunted and the next moment as I turned my head, I saw my vehicle and the lorry in front shaking. I knew I ran into his ass... And the hood of my car is "chui-ed".

Sigh... Don't know how much its gonna cost for the repair. Probably around thousand 5? Since the hood is beyond repair.

I'm fucking tired now, probably from basketball this morning. Can't even type properly... My tights are hurting like mad, damn sore... Oh no, that made me sound so weak :D

Bitter. Sweet

This is the 2nd time I got myself into this bittersweet situation. Sigh... Guess I'll just live for the moment. Can't believe I clocked an average of 5 hours sleep each day this week! But I know its worth it.

Working out is like drug, especially after you see results. It makes you want to push harder, because you know you can do it. And I actually fell asleep on the inclined bench just now! Hahaha, yeah, today been a long one.

I like Never Say Never by Justin Bieber & Jaden Smith! The part where Smith raps is so cute! Alrighty manz, I'm going to bed and have a real, real sweet dream :D
Peace.

Kite, Drink, LAN, Movies, Sun

Ok, this weekend was probably one of the many best I ever had. Friday, Saturday and Sunday all well-spent! Wait... Maybe not Saturday, ahahaha!

Today was really awesome though, Cafe del Mar! Perfect weather. But I think its more of a couple thing. Kinda boring just sitting/lying in the pool or on the adjustable chair. Guess its strictly for chilling, not quite suitable for adventure seekers :D

And today is National Day! Listening to all those National Day Songs sure bring back tons of memories. I can totally picture myself sitting in the school's hall many years ago, singing those songs that remind us of who we are. They raised us well, have us listen to all those songs since young. Well done! But I'm truly grateful to be born in Singapore.

Ok, I've just decided to purchase one of the water dispenser from Mini Toons cause I'm so damn lazy to go pour myself a glass of water from the kitchen, save me. Ahahahaha!
