Ain't gonna blog much for the past week. Too many things happened. I had a good birthday celebration and a good christmas. Thanks to whoever you are. New year is coming and hopefully there's a new start, a new me.

I've clear all my doubts, further proven my thinking on certain things. Am grateful. I am proud to say I know what are the things to be done and what not. Choosen some and choosen some not.

Went drinking with Adam at PH just now. Seriously, its a bad beer day. Tiger just sux. =.=" Oh well...

Finally get the time to blog and shout about after a busy weekend. I suppose its gonna be a busy week again. More hangouts, more gatherings with friends and classmates.

18 Dec (Fri)
Busy working day but not that bad afterall. At least I do get some time to rot in office. =X After work, I was in Bugis, meeting up with a couple of friends for dinner. And yes, I'm late for my Marketing Mgt class. Pon the first class and late for the 2nd. =.='' Best of all, the lecturer seems... oh well... no comments.

After class, I was out with my classmates for a drink. There's Arthur, David, Randy, Gwen, Xiaoyan, Jonathan and myself. We went Alley's Bar at Somerset. Oh yes, Orchard 313 was opened and I couldn't recognise the place once stepped out of Somerset MRT.





Nice place to chill, nice ambience too. ^^


19 Dec (Sat)
Mum woke me up early in the morning. Together we went to the temple together with my siblings. Once home, I had my breakfast and spend most of the time in front of the computer playing Football Manager 2010 and watching Slyvester Stallone's Rambo series.

I spent some time preparing the ingredients for the dessert soup in the afternoon. Gonna cooked dessert for my classmates at Gwen's place during Sunday's potluck gathering.


20 Dec (Sun)
I woke up early in the morning for my morning jog. After which, I spent some time watching some taiwanese entertainent show on PPLive 2. Had my lunch, took a bath and went to Gwen's place.

The potluck gathering with classmates was terrific. Had a lot of fun. All thanks to Gwen and her family for being such a wonderful host. There's plenty of food, so much so many that we played this "Guess the number" game. Forfeit would be eating the selected food. Jeez... I sure gained a lot of weight after that. (Kenna a lot of times) We only left the place at around 9?





For more photos, look at my facebook. ^^V

Blog a bit before my ever getting old memories fails me. Here we go... the summary of events.


10 Dec (Thurs)
Typically working day. Spent my time in the office clearing quotations and arranging freight shipments and deliveries. Ordered a birthday cake for my mum at Amk Central after work while on my way home. My 2nd brother was so eager and anticipated about Mum's birthday dinner that he called me first thing in the morning during his break while in camp. Keep reminding me to get a cake for Mum and must be a fruit cake without much whipped cream. LOL.


11 Dec (Fri)
Mum's lunar birthday, skipped my class. Mum decided to celebrate her lunar birthday this year as we; the kids will be at home. So right after work, I went to collect the cake, home and waited for my siblings.

Together, we went to the nearby Tze Char Restaurant for dinner. Had a really good meal. All in all, it costs me and my brother $100.50 only. It includes... Roasted chicken, Crayfish, Asam and Soy Sauced Fish, Broccoli with Scallop, Hotplate Tofu, & Ribs. Ate until so full that we actually walked home. We were home to cut the birthday cake.

I went out later on to join my online friends for a crazy drinking night. I drank quite a couple glasses of Tiger Beer (eeW) & 1 Guiness Stout. Smoked tons. =/ Anyway, we were at "2 Dawn" pub along Kampong Bahru. Then, we went to Club Ratchada behind Hereen in Orchard - more beer again. We left the place only in the morning like 4 odd. Dawn sent Ling, Gab, Cynthia home before heading back to AMK. By then, its already 7 odd in the morning.


12 Dec (Sat)
Slept for most part of the day except for lunch in the afternoon and evening dinner. I went online for awhile, whacked more zombies in L4D2 and headed out again to meet the same bunch of friends online again. This time at Bukit Timah. More drinking action again at Ipub located behind Al-Almeen. Well, Im a good boy cause I only drank 1 Kilkenny tallboy.

Can only say... sometimes its always good to cry out. It elevates the sorrow in yourself. Saw that in my friends after they drink. =/

Prolly... I'm really a robot... no feelings? *Luffs*

We had supper at Al-Azhar. I ordered 1 Mutabak Ayam as usual. Hurhur... Well, the people split their ways after that. I cycled home while the rest crossed over to play lan and pool at I.R.C

*P.S. Wherever Cynthia goes...there will be 1 kampong. xP


13 Dec (Sun)
Should be a resting day for me but I didn't. gotta fully utilize each and every moment I have and never put my weekend to waste. ^^ I was up early in the morning for my morning jog. Need to trim off some fats away after much eating earlier in the morning hours.

Spent the entire day at home playing FM2010. I was only until in the afternoon that I actually went out for cycling at ECP. Suppose to meet Nick but I didn't managed to spot him. Prolly spotting too much at beach girls. LOL. =X


14 Dec (Mon)
Prolly the worse day to start off for many people out there. Mondays are always blues. Same for me. But luckily, there's nothing much for me to work on and I spent some time in the office re-watching Rocky series. To be frank... its one of the outstanding movie series I ever watched. Great fight scenes and some scenes that will really touch the heart.

I almost forget to attend class for the day. Thankfully, I did check my blackboard for schedule... else I'll miss class without knowing. =X The attendance for today is really terrible. A lot of my classmates also forgot about the class schedule.


15 Dec (Tues)
Working day... more Rocky movie in office. Attended class again for today. Heard that there will be 1 big kampong heading down on 23rd. o.O Shall see. Had Financial Accouting for today again. More counting and tallying. >.<


16 Dec (Wed)
Typical working day. Planning on what dessert to cook for the class gathering at Gwen's house on the 20th. Prolly make a soup. ^^V Bought myself more beer, yes! beer! i mean A&W root beer lar. LOL. Felt gaseous after that.


17 Dec (Thurs)
Finished the last installation of Rocky Series in office. So far, I like the 4th, and the 6th installation more. Short excerpt taken from one of the scene in "Rocky Balboa (6th)"

"This kid's gonna be the best kid in the world. This kid's gonna be somebody better than anybody I ever knew." And you grew up good and wonderful. It was great just watching you, every day was like a privilege. Then the time come for you to be your own man and take on the world, and you did. But somewhere along the line, you changed. You stopped being you. You let people stick a finger in your face and tell you you're no good. And when things got hard, you started looking for something to blame, like a big shadow. Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place and I don't care how tough you are, it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard ya hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done! Now if you know what you're worth then go out and get what you're worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain't you! You're better than that! I'm always gonna love you no matter what. No matter what happens. You're my son and you're my blood. You're the best thing in my life. But until you start believing in yourself, ya ain't gonna have a life."

I suppose that's a life lesson learn. To whoever reading out there... you know who I'm referring to. Stop pointing fingers. Things won't come the easy way.

Finished my work and I was home for dinner. Shortly, I joined Ling, Gab and Tom for pool session, Dawn dropped by after her work. Ended my day off with more chips and beer. Heh.

Blogging for a 2 day journal. As expected of my working schedule for Monday, I shifted majority of the office equipments back to its original place since the floor was waxed and varnished.

It took an entire afternoon for me though. Not an easy task since its a one man show. =.='' But at least the office looks so much more better, neater with more working space. Good things don't last I supposed? My boss messed up the area as usual. <.<

Tuesday work is as per normal. Trying to get myself in a positive working mood throughout. Well... I had class for the day and its absolutely great. Finally get to attend classes and see my classmates. Oh yah... there's a couple more new faces in class. Those are students that took a direct 2 years course. Okae... I'm officially a Yr 2 Undergrad. hurhur... ^^V

Speaking of which, my face appeared on Adam's facebook profile picture. That's classic. Reminds me of poly days.

I ended my Tuesday night off with a can of Asahi Dry and more slaughtering in L4D2.

Monday, December 7, 2009

I had a crazy weekend? I spent the entire Saturday afternoon in front of the comp. playing FM 2010 and Left 4 Dead 2. Yes, I do mean L4D2; chopping and slashing zombies with katana, parang, chainsaw and etc. Its a good way to vent out anger I guess. =/

I went cycling out in the evening, headed to Tampines to meet up with quite a number of online friends for supper. Then, together with Nick, Cynthia and her hubby, we cycled to ECP from Tampines, then from ECP to Changi Village. Dawn was driving around too.

Practically, its just a lot of cycling and smoking throughout. I only reached home on Sunday morning. Took a bath, ate my breakfast and rot. I took a short nap after lunch till dinner. Mummy cooked steamed fish for dinner. ^^

Guess, later gotta shift things in office again. What a monday to start with. =/
