MY SIDE

Melbourne Here I Come!

2005-04-06T02:20:00.000+08:00

Hey Folks,

Today will be flying off the Melbourne, Australia le. Well, am bored surfing the internet and while waiting for the Liverpool match against Juv to start, I might as well blog to kill the time off.

Yes, will be going Melbourne for 8 days with Ying dear. Quite excited about the trip though I did not do much planning on the trip. Not becoz I dun wanna plan stuff about the trip but maybe I'm just lazy and take things so easily at my own pace. Hey! I just finished exams oooookkkkkk...

Today is my 2nd day at PF. I began to think about my path in this industry. Is it suitable for me? I somehow or rather feels that this position as a trainer is not so me after all. I cant talk, I talk little, I seldom smile, I cant think of topics to talk, I have poor motivational skills... how? But the angel side of me says that, "Dun worry ivan, it all takes time.." with that, it calms me down and carry on with work. Basicall what I do is to walk the floor and get to know the members and pursuit them for FC. If not, my pay slip for this month will be empty.

PF trainers are like so friendly but!.... I still like dunnoe what to talk to them. Haiz, independent I lead a life at PF. Maybe after the trip I can really concentrate on my work as a PT. Hopefully we will build good relationship during the trip.

Tomorrow finally its my turn to do a proper FC for the members (2 members finally!). But Liverpool against Juve is a match that cannot miss. Oh shit, its 02.34. I'm late for kick off.

Talk again.

Bye

Gone are the days.

2005-04-04T02:01:00.000+08:00

Well. gones are the days.
.
.
.
I started to miss school. Even though I did not have great memorises of my poly life, I began to miss school. I miss the North Canteen. I miss the drink stall. I miss the photocopy shop. I miss those tutorial rooms and lecture halls. I miss all my friends.
.
.
.
Lots of things are floating in my mind, lots of happenings during the last semester. Some things turn bad while some things brights my poly life. I miss my last semester with my project group. My best project group that I've rathed among the 3 years doing projects. I love it. We were enjoying every minute of the project even though we are under stress. But a sense of satisfaction of the IMC will be missed too, right Lester, Terence and Deren?
.
.
Now, transition in life for me. I do not know what to expect. I miss those times where I wake up and decided not to go to school, the thoughts, the laziness to go school, the scan and chao attitude... I'll miss it. Gone are the days.

Some friends I would also like to address is huat ba. I believe through the last semester, we have build a better and stronger friendship with one another and its really a blessing. Not because you help me get a job in PF but its the easy going-ness, easy to blend with kind of person that I can relate to. Thank you! Not forgeting guang also!
.
.
In 3 days time, I'll be leaving for melbourne. Spending my birthday there as well.

am i happy or sad? i dunnoe. feeling lost. hack la.

Still thinking about the chat session we had during the last day of school after the dinner. from just normal chats to heart to heart sharing sessions with each other. It's really emotional and its good that we have a better understanding about each other. It's like a time to gather back all the lost communications and friendship building times in school. Too late is better than never.
.
.
.
tomorrow will be the 1st day of work i have with PF.
I'm nervous, excited, dunnoe what to expect.
I put on weight, fat, junk in my body. That has to go.
Leter of enlistment has not come, no special unit for me = boring army life ba. I'm so looking forward to avoid tekong. Well, thats not God's plan for me ba.
.
.
I've got to go.
I need sleep.
I need rest.
I need the alertness!
I need strength!

nite.

Agony Liverpool

2005-02-28T01:53:00.000+08:00

Got that strong feeling of blogging suddenly after watching the match between Liverpool and Chelsea. Suddenly want to release all my anger and sadness.

Liverpool, a club I've supported since my childhood days till now and I believe the blood of Liverpool is flowing in me made me feel so sad and pain when they lost to Chelsea. And whats more, felt so disappointed with the club now. I believe not only for me, the whole Liverpool fans will feel the same as me seeing the current LiverpoolFC.

From a 1-0 up, to a 2-3 in the end is really sad. Gerrard, the most influtential person in the team scored an own goal causing the whole team to change, the whole match changed and results changed. MOVE ON! is what I can sayto him after watching the Carling Cup Final. Go out and win some trophies.

Its really sad, it's not the Liverpool I've admired since young anymore. But I still feel for u, Liverpool! Hope you will get well soon.
________________________________________________________

NUS Biathlon
Well, thats all my sadness for Liverpool. Havent been blogging for quite some time. Went for the NUS Biathlon last Sunday together with Joshua (as usual), Terence and Michelle. Me and Joshua did the individual event while Terence and Michelle did the relay.

I guess I've done quite alright already considering that I'm sick (down with flu). My timing was like Swim - 18:55mins Run - 29:39mins Total - 48.34mins. Swim time deproved while run time improved. Quite satisfied. Competiting in my ever first Tri Top and bottom from New Balance. I thought that was quite a new thing and no one has it yet but who knows, more than 50 people are wearing that already on the event day!

School
Work and projects have been piling up and all are not easy. In 1 month time, we will be having our exams and yet I'm still like knowing nothing of whats happening in school. Everything was liek so sudden and so short. This semester was like only 12 weeks and whats more, the content of the modules still remains.

Driving
Had 4 days of fun driving and using my Dad's car as he is overseas at Vietnam. Just like Liverpool, I thrashed it at the last minute. I accidentally scratched the back door of my Dad's car. Not really that bad but I feel the pain as well. I confessed to my Dad and Mum. I know scolding will be part of it so I tried to remain calm. But everything was alright. I think it will be remembered that my 1st major inccident in driving.

Stupid me
Thinking back of Valentine's Day, I feel so stupid about myself by giving Ying a book. Feel so stupid. Then now we were like discussing of going to Perth this coming April after our exams. I'm afraid I'll disappoint her again and that's why I always dun wanna confirm things. I dun want to make empty promises. But to everyone who has the money, go for it, it's cheap now and fun.

Work
My future work may make a shift into the fitness line from my current retail line. Huat is helping me get into Planet Fitness as a Floor Trainer or a Part-time Personal Trainer. Grateful to him. Then some part-time jobs coming from Ms Phern Tan is also a blessing to me I guess. FHI has been calling me here and there and I'm grateful to her too. Salomon... I guess I've enough of that place but I must say its a really nice and happy place working there. It lets me release my stress and cocking with so many nice chaps.

Friends
Met up with some good buddies of mine and I love it. JW has been sharing his stuff with me and I really feel sad for him. But JW, move on. U cant possibly wait for that girl who doesnt cherish u now for life. Dont jst stop at a place to fish, travel to find better fishes around. God has a purpose for u and me.

I'm grateful to have a GF that is so caring for me.

Freaking tired now. Calculationg of how much I slept last nite, it total up to 7 hours.

Had supper with Terence, Lester and some of his friends. Really had a great time by joking and stuff. Really enjoyed it.

Got a morning msg from my Class Rep saying that the class for Human behaviour is cancelled. So that leaves us with only IB lecture today. I've decided to hack it. Just 1 lesson? ahhh.... I rather sleep and save my transport cost.

A feeling of sadness still floats in me.

Why is the only son in the family cant be in the elite force of the army?

I'm disappointed.

Mood: Sian

Later, he said ...a Commando letter.

Where's mind?

Sian. Oh Com'on!

Mood: Exhausted

2005-02-01T01:34:00.000+08:00

Supposed to be studying for my Country Club Management ICA test for tomorrow but now I'm just slacking away in my room surfing around the net.

Really have the 'cant be bothered' mood for the test and for me, I think the whole CCRM thing is a crap. The lecturer simply dont know how to teach. Ask me what have I learnt so far, I can say not much or close to NOTHING.

Totally exhausted after the entrepreneurship project. Yesterday was like a working zombie doing and finishing up the project at Lester's place till 3.30AM! Well, what's more is that I'm down with flu AGAIN! twice within a month. Cant be more sway than that!

Class is getting better now and I'm so glad bout it. We might not get a happy start but how about a happy ending.? Isnt that good too? Well, for me I think its great.

Been training quite infrequently due to the fact that I'm down with flu. Think really have to work real hard to get back in shape for the NUS Biathlon coming up in Feb 20th and the Singapore Biathlon in March.

Ok, think gonna study my CCRM for now. Hear from me again folks. See ya

-SWAH!-

Mood: Tired

2004-12-29T07:17:00.000+08:00

Supposed to go running at Macrithchie and then the weather spoils everything. Darn!

Now all dressed up like a idiot.
_____________________________________________________

Was at KTV with a few of my poly mates and time spent there was quite enjoyable indeed.

Terence, Bryan, Lester, Lynette and myself all sang our voices broke. Fun.
_____________________________________________________

Cant find my HRM's chest strap. Darn about it. Angry as it's a gift from Ying.

Was having supper with web* (my buddy) again at 284 and then he's bike broke down AGAIN!

"SWAY!"

ended up going back myself by bus.
_____________________________________________________

Today's lesson will be short.

Probably going for a swim then fetch Ying from work. Also my "Triathlete mag" from Borders.

That's about all for the morning!

Good Morning Folks.

Enjoy ur Day! God Bless!

Bye.

Mood: Tired

2004-12-27T22:04:00.000+08:00

School started! Today was the first day and things went on quite smoothly. Seriously speaking, I'm still in the holidays mood rather than coming back to school. Anyway, this will be the last semester and then it will be finished. Lessons today was crap. Nothing's enjoyable in school. Sick and tired of it. I've opened up! So happy.
______________________________________________________________

Update on the past few weeks. I'm finally back from the FISAF course and already passed my exam. Now I'm a CERTIFIED PT! haha. Thinking back, at least I did something useful during the holidays. Next course... ... "Sports Massage!" anyone interested?
______________________________________________________________

Christmas was alright, spent the xmas eve with Ying in town. I bet you that was my first and last time I visit town during Christmas. The whole place was havoc. From taka to Cineleisure takes about 15 to 25 minutes of walk. Stupid.

Christmas was at Ying's home celebrating, eating and exchanging gifts. Very simple.

Then on the 26th Dec, Joshua my buddy BAPTIZED! went for his baptism service and then work.

_____________________________________________________________

Today is also Justin's birthday. Bought him a Salomon bag and then went for dinner and then desert at Swensons'.
_____________________________________________________________

Got to go and pack my stuff. See ya guys. Take care

Bye

Mood: Excited

2004-12-10T23:47:00.000+08:00

Fisaf starts TODAY!

Today's lesson was pretty good going, only the fact that i forget all my stuff on it. First lesson were teaching on the muscles and skeletons which i forgot most of it. Sad and disappointed with myself. Ayway, its the learning attitude i believe.

I'm just worried for Ying. She knows nuts about it but dont worry my dear.

Wel will all help you with it and help you complete the course together.

Gonna be a week of fun learning this Fisaf. Only bad thing is the darn location.
__________________________________________________________

Gonna take a break from Salomon.

Hopefully this will be a refreshing period for me before I goes back to serving those customers. Currently getting quite bored and tired serving and approaching them asking what they want or do they need help. Kinda tired.

K folks, tomorrow's lesson will be early so gonna tuck in early.

Good nite my friends.

Bye

Mood: So So

2004-12-08T23:18:00.000+08:00

Been working most of my time right now. Just managed to count how many hours i had worked this month and it goes to be 90++ hours. Quite happy to see the figures. Now Salomon Skates are on sale! so tempted to get myself 1 pair but it's tight on my budget right now. So guys out there, Hey! Sale on Salomon Skates!? 50%! Think for this Christmas, I should be getting myself a bermudas and hopefully a watch (Casio Protrek 7 Series)
________________________________________________________

Oh yes, this month managed to attend Jay Chou's 3rd concert in Singapore. Always last minnute my auntie managed to dig out some tickets. Thanks man! The staged of the concert was fantastic but the performance was so so only. But after all, Thanks to my aunties!
________________________________________________________

2 more days to FISAF. Getting more and more excite about how the course is conducted. But I'm more worried for Ying as she may not be prepared. But knuckle on dear! LiveStrong!
________________________________________________________

Christmas Coming, thinking what should i get for Dear. Ideas!?! Merry Christmas everyone! Hope whatever unhappiness will leave it behind and start afresh in this coming new year!

Got to Go! Regards all! Bye

Mood: Moderate

2004-11-24T10:31:00.000+08:00

Have not been blogging for almost a month. Went for a family trip to Japan together with my relatives and cousins. Really spent a fruitful time being together with all my family members and gels up the relationship between members. Things there are superbly expensive and would rather get it in Singapore. Sorry folks, just managed to get you all some japanese delicacies there.
____________________________________________________

Went for the Mizuno 10km Wave Run held at Kovan. Suppose to run together with my colleague Dominic but he pulled out in the last minute due to an injury. Ended up running alone. Running alone can be real boring and also felt like giving it up at the 5km turning point but considering as a sportsman, giving up was not an option and so i went on slowly. The heat was amazingly hot. Sad thing was that I cant find my picture in the sportsphotox.com! Hello? where is my photos? Sad.
____________________________________________________

Started attending golf lessons. Always felt that golf is a very boring game for the old folks but I think I'm wrong. It can really relax you up by hitting the balls. This is the time where I began to relax myself and thinking of the correct posture in hitting the small white ball infront of me. Maybe you guys should start picking it up. It's all about management in golf and so for our lives.
____________________________________________________

People have been asking me what are my plans for the future. I had always wanted to be a teacher just like some of my friends but i think the plan is diverting to something else. Maybe office job or freelance trainer or i dunnoe. I personally like sports. So have been asking myself that whether a sporting career really allows me to practice my sport? I see many people doing other jobs and yet they have the time to do the sports they like. and some who chose sport as their career cant even find time to do their favourite sport. That's sad.
____________________________________________________

In about 2 weeks time, I will be attending the FISAF PT courses. Really excited about it and hope my freelance could start off with it.
____________________________________________________

Met up with my secondary classmates for some catching up at Cafe Cartel. Not all attended but still able to see most of the faces. Everyone has changed and still looking good. Real happy to meet up with them as they were the people whom I spent my most happy and memorable days with. Cheers!

Have not met my poly mates since school ends. Think will give them a call these few days when I'm not working to meet up with them.
____________________________________________________

Well, think I've got to go. Preparing for work and should be going for a swim before i leave for work in the afternoon. Still tired after 4 consecutive days of running and swimming.

Bye.

holidays are shiok!

2004-10-28T01:53:00.000+08:00

Tomorrow's another day of Salomon work. Cant wait till then. Will be on the morning shift. Saw the schedule and its like so crap. Wonder how he plans it out. Counting down, 13 more days and i'll be like leaving foe Japan. Really dont know what to expect of the weather there. Simply look at my wardrobe and its like no clothes to wear. Gonna get some real soon.

Saw this book at Kinokuniya about using Nokia 7610 - which is the phone i'm using now, to take real cool photos. So nice pictures. Wonder how they did it. Wanna try. Well, today just simply spent the whole day with Ying. Went to get our hair cut. Dinner at Bishan J8 and then a cup of coffee and cheese cake at Coffee bean and Tea Leaf. Chatted all the way about work and stuff till i sent her home. Haven been talking to her for quite some time.

Got home tired and body aching after yesterday's work out with webster. chest aches. haha.. just did a crappy work using paint. Not well done or infact, kids work.

2004-10-28T01:07:00.000+08:00

kids work

I'm back!

2004-10-26T01:35:00.000+08:00

I'm back! to blogging at least, but not for long. Being going through all the shit. Life basically just sucks. Finally managed to get through all my exams. Been tough studying all those modules, but luckily there's only 3 modules to study for it and its now all over!

Objectives for this 2 months of holidays before school reopens and get ready for the final stage of my poly school life. Its exciting to see how times flies just like this. But I'm glad its finishing soon.

Objective:

Work and save up.
Fine means to earn as much cash as possible without gambling.
Buy the wants i need.
Complete on my own personal website thats coming up in... i do not know.. stay tune to www.ivanneo.com - it's registered!
Pick up courses - FISAF, Napfa Tester Course
Train for tri

Whether can it be achieve, depends on my endurance and enthusism in it. But i'm for sure, the main thing is to pick up web page designing. Gonna get my dad's website and mine up before the end of holidays - "Hopefully"!

Working in Salomon has really given me hell lots of fun. Its simply really doodly fun being there. Feel so home and comfortable, getting to know some great pals there like Mr Sofian! haha.. that hell of a person, and dominic - my so call by the book and dua kang store in charge, and of coz some same level colleagues like my all time best buddy mr Webster. U peeps really gave me great times man! Listening to "She will be loved by Maroon 5" now and it says "I dun mind spending everyday...." to me, i dun mind spending everyday in Salomon!

Watch the "America 's Next Top Model" right after stepping to home from work. That Shandi gal really touched me by what she says. Do your know that she's a girl whereby she dun get love from her parents? She tried all means just to get attention and love from her parents, but after she did those stupid things, she still dun get it. Do you feel how she feels when u dun even feel love by ur parents? Terrible.

Family problem is really driving me nuts. For peeps out there who knows able it, thanks for listening! Mum still in bad shape but she's better I guess. Dad's a bad bad man but we love the both. Ups and downs but still moved on please.

Will be gpong to Japan next month from the 10th -15th Nov. Damn sad as cant celebrate our 1st year anniversary together with Ying. Sorry dear. Darn the days chosen as I ask cant be able to make it for work. Its double pay for Public Holidays!! Darn! Oh yes! also got myself some supplements for my runs and endurance trainings. It's 'Endurox R4". Aids in recovery and u come back stronger. Dunnoe how good is it so just try. Got the ad from Triathlete's Mag.

Tomorrow will be going shopping with Web, will be popping by Novena square's factory outlet to see is there cheap stuff, then pop over to Pacific Plaza's Adidas as well to get some stuff at discount rates. Hopefully can find something that suits me or Ying.

Lastly, I wanna work and wanna get rid of my oakley bag that is just a years old. Still in great shape! any buyers?

**Shack and Thoughts

2004-09-23T03:03:00.000+08:00

Look at the Time! It's 3.04am in the morning and I'm still up. Will be leaving for school at 8.00 am later. Really shack. Just finished compiling my Coaching Project. Also dont know whether did we do it correctly anot. But hack care la!

Well, these past few days has really busy me up with tons of work. I hardly can sleep soundly this 2 days especially as there is submission of projects as well as ica. Luckily the test was alright and with some help from the teacher. haha. Thanks! Well, today went over to Salomon to give dear a surprise visit. Actually was to fetch her up from work as she's working the morning shift till 4pm. Then head down to makan at BK before heading home to settle these darn projects. I was so shack that I fall asleep after reaching home for just 10 minutes.Suppose to train today but forget it, work not done.

Chatted with Zul on the way to Suntec and he's not bad after all la. Hear his sorrows in school and I really feel sorry for him. I really can understand how he feels in school, nothing to look forward for in poly. Same goes for me. I'm feeling darn lonely in school. My buddies will be leaving for Tekong in afew days time and yet I haven got the chance and time to meet up with them. Hated it. Thinking back now, poly has really nothing for me to remember. I rather to forget the time that I have in poly. I envy people who really enjoyed their poly life. Probably its the one incident that spoils my whole entire view about poly and the people around me. Are they real friends of mine?

Nvm, start afresh and move on. Nothing is going to stop me from finishing my poly life and get over it. Although sports industry is small, I'm not going to let anyone destroys my life in this industry. I've suffered from 1 miserable incident and that's enough.

Tons of Work

2004-09-20T23:43:00.000+08:00

WHPP project, Coaching project, NSA project, CRM project and ICA, E-Business ICA and Report Writing are projects that I will have to hand up by this week. What's more, its not even half done yet. Damn shack. This is the only semester which I feel damn stress up with school work. Not only me, I can tell that all my classmates are complaining about it as well. Well, complaining isn't the solutions. Doing it is the only solution. Today's gonna burnt the time off.

Today went to work at Salomon again. Was quite alrite, Monday blues for me as well as for the sales. Not even made $1k today. So can tell everyone is waiting for their next payday before the next shopping trip huh. Also witness the taking of stuff from the shop for free by the Ful- Timers. Feeling must be damn shiok. They took 2 XA shorts worth $200 and a Denali Tee that worth $129. Really balls dropped. Why am I not a Full-Timer?

Ok, thats for all today. Gonna do my work and stay up to 2.30 am to Watch Liverpool take on Man Utd. Liverpool all the way!!

Denali Sports Wool Tee

2004-09-19T01:17:00.000+08:00

Another day of work. Today was very fruitful and fun at work today with only me, dexter and dominic. First day working with Dominic and he's alright as what I can say. For the first half of the day like about only 5 hours of working, we've like crossed the $1000 mark on sales which was not bad. Saw many very nice clothings which always tempts me to buy it. Especially the Sports Wool Denali Tee which me, DJ and Dear aimed at. Working at Salomon really makes me feel so comfortable unlike some other jobs.

Supposed to get my phone changed today, but when we reached there, there is no more promotion for Nokia 7610 and the sales person even told us it's not worth buying at $768. So no choice, cant change it today but just wait. Dad promised to get me when he hunt for the best price so why not? Anyway, this is the first time I'm getting the phone I want. After going to the M1 shop at parkway, we went to visit grandma at CGH. Has been quite awhile ever since I visited her so told dad to drive me there. Grandma's condition was perfectly fine and I'm so glad about that. Even told her to come stay with us. The best part is that she asked whether am I going to get married. I was like, "huh?" haha, anyway, she's just concern and wanting to see her grandchild get married. I'll work hard for it Ah ma! dun worry. haha. Then head down for dinner with my relatives.

Went to fetch dear at Salomon. Tried out the Sports Wool Tee and I was like , " I wanna buy!" haha.. it's so darn comfortable. But the price is not very comfy for the eyes. It's $129. Shall think about it. Then went dinner with dear again at Subway. The feeling of being involved together really feel so good. We spent the time talking about work and the products and the happenings. Really felt so warm and nice. Tomorrow is another day of long work. Hope to gain as much as experience as possible. Sleep early all, ciaos!

$659 Salomon Jacket

2004-09-18T01:31:00.000+08:00

*dead tired* Just got back home from work. Today's abit later because the boss of Salomon came and then we had to fix things up and shift some products here and there. But working there has been fun and enjoyable. Also got my tops today that cost $65 each; got 2 of them. Towards the end of the word day, saw the boss gave DJ a $659 Salomon jacket just for free. Jaws really dropped. How I wish I got it.

Oh yes! Liverpool beat Monaco 2-0 and guess what? I literally finish watching the whole match. Liverpool has really changed and play more exciting footballs. Tomorrow morning have to work again at 11am. This time Kelvin is not around to joke, so kinda bored. Oh yes, I really cant wait to get my phone changed.

Have been waiting for the past few months for the contract to be up. Finally got my chance. This time I wanted the Nokia 7610 again as Dear says that it suits me more and is nicer than Sony Ericsson k700i. So that would be my choice.Tomorrow will be the Inter-School Aquathlon 2004. Suppose wanted to join, but like no one to join with me and so I back out. Then also cant volunteer as I've got the Salomon work on hand. Sorry folks.

Well, better get to bed early as tomorrow's another day of work. Right wrist's pain is really killing me *darn!*. Get to bed early folks.

Liverpool vs Monaco

2004-09-15T23:58:00.000+08:00

Weee Haaa, got my Salomon stuff today from Novena Square. Nothing impressive, all old stuff but be positive la, its all good stuff. Not really that nice, but hack la. Just a pair of shorts and shoes. Will be wearing on Friday to work. Ha!

Well, today nothing much, just realised that I've got many undone projects waiting for me to settle. Workload just pile uo just in a flash. I really couldnt catch up with it. It's like there is test and submission of projects every other day for the whole of next week. I wonder where will I be able to find time to get things done. What's more, I've got work commitment too. Haiz. Time Management.

Went to work out as usual with Jimmy and Joshua. Today clock my personal best for the 4km run with Joshua and Jimmy with a timing of 21:38 mins. Think its no nig deal for those elite athletes and those who trains regularly with a coach. I've always lived a lifee without coach. I'm the coach and I motivate myself to do it. So I'm happy with it.Cant wait for my next race to come. Feels like taking part in the Inter School Aquathlon, but I dont wanna go alone. Feel so lonely going alone. Well, next time ba.

Tonite, Liverpool will take on Monaco in the Champions League at 2.30am. Hope my fav. Liverpool will win. All the best man. Dont Disappoint us.

10th Month

2004-09-14T10:20:00.000+08:00

The time now is 10.12am in the morning and today also marks the 10th month me and dear being together with each other. Time flies so fast, in two months time, we will be celebrating our 1 year anniversary.

Yesterday had lessons which is so darn boring. In the morning, went with Sukri to his tennis shop to have his string restring. Then head down to BK to have our lunch. Whopper for just $3.90. Shiok.Headed down to school and we're like 30 minutes late? haha.. who cares about the bodybuilder's class. After class, went running around the campus with Sukri and Zul. Good run indeed but both of them did not complete.

At night, went to gym to do some workout as well as running again. This time round is with Jimmy and Joshua. Was running for about another 4 km. Then met up with JW for dinner at Food Court and then the movie. Surprise movie planned out by them. Watched the Bourne Supremacy. Not bad a show.

Hope today will be enjoyable for me and Dear. God Bless All and the time for me being in school.

Cool Weekend!

2004-09-12T22:31:00.000+08:00

Wooo, weekends coming to an end soon. And the feeling is so damn sian. Hate to go back to school. Seriously, poly life sucks. I've been complaining that to my good buddies all along. But, what's the point? It finishing soon. One more semester to go and I'm outta here. But the problem is, I cant wait for 1 sem. Life still goes on.

Working in Salomon is great fun, meeting with new people and some fun peeps. Cant wait to get hold of my Salomon stuff e.g uniform and shoes. Haha. All good stuff. Dear got home with $200 plus worth of goods on her 1st day of work while I got home with nothing after 3 darn days. Damn not fair. haha.. kidding.

Saturday, borrowed my uncle's car to transport my bicycle to East Coast Park. Lynette (My TAS working pal) approached me to help out in a training clinic organised by TAS. The job was darn simple amd good money. Just simply guide the new riders the route and then turn back. For that less than 2 hours of work, I got paid $35. Initially wasnt feel comfortable taking the money as I did not do much, but Adrena said it's the boss order, so take la! Well, its fun. Lynette, you owe me one! haha.. leaving me all alone, lucky got Yati there.

After helping out in the clinic, I rushed hoem to get myself changed for the BB's 70th Anniversary Dinner at KCP hall. Cannot say its good la, but also not a bad event la. However, I left towards the end as I have to return the car. Met up with Web, JW, Jimmy and Joshua. Nobody knows how good is the feeling being with them, all my darn old and my best of buddies. We literally chatted under the block for 5 darn hours all the way till 4 am this morning! I feel damn shiok. unlike poly.. sigh..

Today, went out with dear for the whole day. Chatted alot about work and other stuff, couple talks.. haha.. Walked alot too. It's really been a long time since we walk so far. Really fruitful this week end. I'm lovin' it!

Woo, long journal. Shall stop now. MR CK, think u are sick, drink more water and take care all!

What a Rush!

2004-09-09T14:23:00.000+08:00

Well, yesterday was doing the so called most interesting module project in my entire semester. It is the coaching project that we are going to hand up. Interesting but tiring. Everybody from the SW classes were like online even though it's 3 am! haha... For me, I worked all the way till 4am and then knock off. Can stand it, really darn tired.

Today morning skipped WHPP lesson as I was too darn tired to get up. Went to school to finish up all the necessary. Then got called up by DJ to go to work. hmmm as usual. Now changing into all Adidas or Salomon apparels then gonna head back to school for coaching tut. Wanna go for my runs with Sukri but ended up having to work. Sian. 2 days did not train.

Oh yes, got a lobang from Lynette to help out in dunno what carnival as kayakers and cyclist. 2 hours $40 bucks. Damn shiok. Called my buddy JW to tag along. Sorry folks, if got more space, u all will definately be in my list.

Ok, gonna go back to school. Seeya around.! Take care

NIE Biathlon 2004

2004-09-07T09:44:00.000+08:00

NIE Biathlon 2004

Updates on Me!

2004-09-07T09:41:00.000+08:00

Wooo... it's been long ever since I update my blog. Has been always lazy to do it but finally force myself to do it today. Last week was my 1 week term break. The feeling was damn shiok compared to going to school. I can get top meet up with my friends, go out with dear, training, and so on. Life was great throughout the week.

Oh ya, Participated in the NIE Biathlon last Sunday with Joshua and it was like damn shiok. Completed the race without stopping in a timing of 49:45 mins. Although that's just an average result, but I'm more than satisfied with it. Looking forward to my next race dude. Do browse around in my album as I've uploaded some pictures I took during the race.

Next thing is that I've already been recruited to be part of Salomon's staff! haha.. it's just part-time though. Yesterday (Monday) was my first day of work and it was alright. People there were quite friendly and nice such as Fahmy, Su Ping and Moses (though he looks unfriendly, but he's alright a fellow.) DJ and Dominic was not around. Managed to sell a Gore Tex XCR that cost $195 on my first day. Really boosted me on in doing that job. Well, it all takes time.

After work, waited for KC at Soup Spoon (the place he works at) till bout 11.00pm before heading back home. Oh ya, talking about school work, its' piling up like never before with all the projects and ICA coming in. Really stress out but I always believe that with more things in hand, the more you will know how to manage your time.

Well, more updates to come tonight. Seeya!

Carrera Bike Helmet

2004-08-30T11:27:00.000+08:00

Lucky Draw Prize. A Carrea Bike Helmet worth $160. Thanks to Number 79!

Finally Over!

2004-08-30T11:25:00.000+08:00

Finally! The OSIM Singapore Triathlon 2004 is over.I'm happy not becoz of the event is over, but rather the tiring work that we went through. Its literally a $10000 job. Well, no more complaints, just want to give myself a break today go out shopping.

The last celebration of OSIm Triathlon is the Awards Dinner held at the Europa Music Underground at the Hotel Phoenix. It's really fun and crappy being with the other class and of coz Huat. My buddy throughout the week. Thanks man! Also, from the dinner, I got home a $160 bike helmet as a lucky draw prize. Really shiok as this will be of great need for me in the future. haha.

Ok, some things really need to settle will be firstly, to train up myself as I've gone through one week without training. Second, will be to go visit my Grandma in the hospital. Third, will be to go relax myself and meet up with Ying and some of my friends. Fourth, will be to get done with all my projects.

Gonna go change up and meet Ying for a time of shopping. haha. oh ya, and also to visit DJ's shop to learn about the products. God bless all!

First Day of OSIM Registration

2004-08-25T10:48:00.000+08:00

Well, I'm just so shack out today. Although it's not the first time I'm doing it, but I'm really shack out - mentally. Today marks the start of my busiest week ever, with projects to be submitting by this week and I haven even started. Work is driving me mad.This year's OSIM compared to the previous year is much more organised. Better but also with some cock ups here and there. SSC screwed things up. Just let me ask, how can the participants not get the right T-shirt size they want on the first day of registration? ridiculous. Well, stress is really upon all the organising committee.

Did not talk to dear today but hear she've got a bronze. Dont worry dear, u did well and I'll still get u ur GG5s to motivate u and cheer u up. Tomorrow will be another day or war with registration. This time is 400++ participants charging at us. God Bless us. Gonna really do my work tomorrow morning. God! really bless me this week. Please give me the physical and mental strength to race on.

Pulled Hamstring

2004-08-20T00:12:00.000+08:00

Work is piling up and I'm still so lost in school. Been telling people about this and I think I've formed an impression of someone who cant do work. But I trust in myself, and I will do it! Tomorrow will be the closing day for NIE Biathlon and I've yet sent in my applications. It states that you can also register on the race day, so I dont see a point why they can accept late entries. Now I understand why Singaporeans so damn last minute. It makes work real hrad, but welcome to the real world. haha.

Well, in school for me is just plainly study and get together with my friends and also sports. Had a chat with some of my friends today and felt real good. Did some running during the coaching sessions and realised I've pulled my Hamstring. Darn! Hope it recovers fast.

Common interested friends and buddies of mine. Join me in the world of Triathlon. I may not be the best, but I'm always tri-ing my best.

"Pain is Temporary, Quitting is Forever."

Gotcha!

2004-08-17T23:44:00.000+08:00

Well, today basically just schooling and training. Been going through the past few days without training. Today feel damn shiok training in the gym and also did a 2.4km run on the trackmill. NAPFA is coming on the 1st of October. My aim is to reach Gold. That's my aim for training ba. Whether i can get it or not, it's another story.

My shin is killing me after the soccer match that I have on last Saturday. Dont know what's happening to it too. Hope it recovers fast. Closing date for NIE Biathlon is coming closer and I haven send in my application. Gonna do it tomorrow. Gotcha.

Met Ying after school and then we left off for some duck noodles near her place. Not bad but the aunt seperated wrongly. But nevermind, people do makes mistakes. Oh ya, Ying caused a joke herself today. The cashier was asking me to key in my ATM Pin while we're paying and guess what Ying said? "I forgot to bring.." I was like...huh? forgot to bring Pin? haha..

Oh ya! My Granny!

2004-08-16T09:45:00.000+08:00

Did I forgot to mention about my Grandma? hmmm looking at her now realy melts my heart. She's recovering! Praise the Lord indeed. Yup, she's smiling and her hands are all back to normal. She'll still be staying in the SICU for closely check ups and I think its good.

Yup! say no more about my happiness for Ah Ma recovering. May God Bless All!

The Weekends

2004-08-16T09:29:00.000+08:00

Whoo.. just finished my part for the NSA project. Doing on Basketball Association of Singapore. Quite interesting and really had fun interviewing the Vice president Mr Teo. He's a funny man. Watched the Chelsea vs Man Utd match (Chelsea won 1 - 0 anyway) and then fell asleep, leaving my work half done. So this morning woke up at 7am to get my stuff back on track and finally finished.

Weekends had been fun with me and dear spending most of the time together. For 2 days we went out for dinner (B.Boss and Al Dente), spending the time together. Caught the movie Catwoman, but I feel it's not that nice after all la, to me ba. But you all should catch "The Notebook". It's really a fantastic movie for couples. Trust me. Well, my wanted list keeps on moving and increasing. Sports Connection now offers Deuter 40% off and I wanted to get the Trans Alphine. Cant make up my mind whether to get it or not and finally did not get it. But I'm still thinking about it. Although I have a Oakey backpack, but i feel uncomfortable carrying for long, so any buyers? haha.. just kidding, its a gift from my mum.

I'm moving on... Forgeting about the issue on that friend of mine. Well, still got many good friends with me and of coz Ying is always with me. Oh ya, been talking alot with Ying with the graduation trip me and her going to plan. Australia is the place. Hopefully we can go. really cant stop listening to this song called "Accidentally in Love" by Counting Crows. Just simply love it.

Giant TCR 2002

This is a Giant TCR 2002 Model

Boring Work Interesting News!

2004-08-12T10:48:00.000+08:00

Dran that Body Builder! I think everyone hates him so much for the module he is taching. Simply cannot take it. Was rushing for his project since 3 pm yesterday at home. Finally finished. But Its all half hearted work. Ying came to my house, she studied for her Personal Selling module while I do my project.

Oh yes, fdid I forgot to mention that I saw DJ last weekend at the NUS Triathlon? hmm, yup saw him and he participated. Got the idea from him to use a mountain bike frame and road wheels. Heard form him that he is going to work at Salomon and he ask me to send him my resume and probably work part time there. Shiok! Salomon stuff are darn good.. although damn expensive. Well, have just completed typing my resume. Should be sending him these couple of days. Hopefully I can work and save up the money to get a Road Bike and also save up for marriage! haha..Heard that Ying?

Just chatted with Choon Yong yesterday and he told me that he's friend wanna sell off his road bike. Guess what? It's a TCR 2002 model. Cool but old model. But still cool anyway. He'll be checking out for me how much his friend is selling. That darn bike cost more than $3k. But hopefully I can get.

Well, enough been said. I'm feeling good. The next challenge! NIE Biathlon! Interested please visit http://biathlon.home.nie.edu.sg See ya there!

First Ever Triathlon Race

2004-08-10T09:39:00.000+08:00

Finally, Me and Josh and tried out in our 1st Triathlon race ever. The feeling was superb and I'm really loving it. The race is on the 8th of August at Sentosa. The feeling of transiting in the transition area is really enjoying.

However, I think that the route the plan and the route markings are all crap and terrible. We could hardly know where we are going. Surprisingly, I came in 5th! haha.. never know that. Josh came in second. Got lotsa funny moments.

This race will marks the beginning of my triathlon career. I'm lovin' it!

dreaming of RACE

2004-08-08T01:17:00.000+08:00

My buddy - Joshua, already dreaming about tomorrow's race. Recce the route in his dreams. haha.

Time: 1:11AM

2004-08-08T01:11:00.000+08:00

Well, now at this moment actually I should be sleeping. But just too excited about tomorrow's NUS Triathlon that I'm participating. My buddy, Joshua, will also be participating with me and he is way asleep.

This is my 1st triathlon race in my life and this also marks the start of my new love, Triathlon. Been training quite hard just for tomorrow and still no confident. Gonna be exciting. Got some new stuff these days. Finally got hold of the card reader which I can upload my pictures and sent it out. Gonna do that tomorrow night too.

Well, gonna get to sleep. Good night to u for reading this and wish me luck! God Bless!

Long Weekend!

2004-08-06T10:04:00.000+08:00

It's Long weekend for me this week! Shiok boy! was just being told by my tutor for e-business that the lab lesson is cancelled as he got throat infection. Really gonna enjoy this weekend. Well, yesterday just got hold of my first Rudy Project Sunglasses - Ekynox SX Silver Velvet. I think I really got it at a really good deal. Will show your when my card reader comes.

No news from the hospital means good news. I wish Ah Ma a speedy recovery. Oh yes! so excited about this Sunday's NUS Triathlon. Joshua and I will be taking part and we were like so excited. Benn talking about it for the whole night yesterday. Finally borrowed my uncles car to transport our bikes there. This will be my first triathlon race although is a short one, but I think its an exposure for me. I'm beginning to love this sport more and more.

Oh ya, about Mr C Kunalan's lesson yesterday was damn fun, doing the runs and training. Really learn alot from this man who is always so humble and experience and knowledge. Someone everyone will look up to.

To end off with a quote "Pain is temporary. Quitting lasts forever" - Lance Armstrong

Topic: Grandma

2004-08-05T11:42:00.000+08:00

Well, the topic for me will still be my beloved Grandma and Friends. It's another day of staying overnight in the hospital as I do not have classes in the morning and my next class starts at 3pm. This is my 2nd night there together with my Uncle Steven.

The 1st night we chatted till around 4 plus am on the topic of religion and what he says really makes me ponder alot on Christianity. But with due respect, I'm still a Christian. May God answer all my doubts. Grandma's condition is getting better and better but she's still in the critically ill stage. Nobody knows when will she suffer from the relapse. She is still concious and the tube in her really makes my heart ache. This morning I see her, she was telling us that she is very uncomfortable. The 2nd night I did not chat much, just slept through the night as I was really darn tired. Dear also visited Ah Ma together with me.

Finally managed to place and order for my Rudy Project Spec! haha.Finally!! and I think I've found a good deal ba.

I did not really think about friends issue already as I decided to let it go. Stay independent for the next couple of months in my course ba. Not saying that they are not my friends but indeed there are some really goods friends in school and that I really cherish it. I believe its all being planned by God and may God guide me in all the things in my life as well as my beloved Grandma!

Beloved Grandma

2004-08-01T21:59:00.000+08:00

Finally got the time to sit and update about myself. Was spendin most of my time this week in the Changi Hospital as my Grandma suffered into a really critical condition. Her condition was gettiing worst as her lungs caught infection and accumulates water on the left side of the lungs. Due to this, her heart rate went as fast as up to 145 bits per minute, suffered fever of up to 38 degrees and penting aways with more than 35 breathes a minute!

What really shocked me was that on Friday,her heart stopped working. We were all shocked and my aunties were crying and suffering from depression. I was told by my Dad that she was fine when he came to fetch me and my sister. We all thought of going Changi Village for dinner. Who knows out of the blue, Grandma heart stopped beating. Doctors used the 'Defilberator' to electricute the heart to make it beat again. Thank God, Ah Ma was revived and her heart started beating. The other thing to really thank God was that Ah Ma did not go into coma.

Now, she requires to be closely monitored in the Surgical Intensive Care Unit, using the oxygenated machine to help her in breathing. Looking at Ah Ma's condition really hurts me alot. With all the tubes in her hands and legs and mouth, I feel so sad when I see her. Whenever I see her, the only thing i will say to her is "Ah Ma, you must be well and recover! (In Hokkien), We will all be waiting for you outside. Don't worry!" Ah Ma cant talk but she is really suffering. I'm sad, but it all leaves it to Ah Ma's determination to fight death. I really pray to God and leave my Ah Ma to God's healing hands.

Now she's better and I will be staying overnight on monday. Really hope miracle will happen. My Ah Ma has always been known for her strong, discipline and persever character. Really hope to see her well.

To all my Aunts and Uncles: You all have been tired. Do take good care of your health too. May God Bless All!

Losing a Good Friend

2004-07-28T01:16:00.000+08:00

Was out in school today, attending classes, workouts and then lecture. Had dinner at KFC again. Monday just had KFC then today had it again. But its ok, I really enjoyed the fellowship with my poly mates. Really cracked up lots of jokes and stuff. But nevertheless, problems are never solved. It just drags on with time.

People only know how to cherish things after they have lose it. I think this is very true. Losing a good friend or a close family member of yours is something which you cant buy it back no matter how much money you have. So what you got the whole world darn of money and riches but lose you friend? Money cant buy everything. Have you people out there who has lost a very good friend of yours? I think I do. It hurts and really feels terrible. Someone whom I felt that we could be best buddies till old now has just gone with the wind. Sad sad sad indeed. I'm sad, but what is to be done? I've tried but what has been done? God knows and I know he has planned something for me/ us. Maybe this is just my walks of life, to learn to be independent and also test the feeling of loneliness.

I looked back and then learnt how to cherish my good friends. I think people out there, learn to cherish the people around you especially ur good and close friends. Also, those with GFs, cherish your gf as much as you do for your friends, if not more.

I'm someone who is really bad at handling all these. Juggle between friends and GF is always that bad for me. That's life. People can do it I believe I can too. Managing these well can be really of great skill and its very very useful in life.

To this friend of mine: You will still be a great bro of mine.
To my GF: I still love you.
To my Beloved Grandma who is now in CGH: I pray that you will recover from your illness soon. I love you and miss you alot.

Normal

2004-07-27T01:55:00.000+08:00

Start of a brand new week. As usual, Mondays and Tuesdays lessons are the most boring. Thanks to the darn report writing. I think none of the people in class knows what the hell the tutor is teaching, so dry. Short day, went out to beach road to have dinner with sukri, khai and bryan. Tried the Tulang - Goat's bone and bone marrow. Not bad but its gross. The gravy was superbly nice.Shop around the army market after dinner and saw quite a number of nice tees. But expensive.

Then was suppose to go home but a day without exercising is a damn sinful feeling. So I went on to do a 20 lap swim at Bishan Swimming Complex. Then met up with my 3 buddies for dinner. Chatted and Joked. Went home to get my tutorial done.

Did not managed to talk to Ying as I was home quite late. Sense that she has some hidden problem which she did not say out. Will be digging it out from her tomorrow. No secrets between each other. Hope she's fine. Miss ya dear!

Independent

2004-07-25T22:55:00.000+08:00

Back from Malaysia yesterday. Was there with Ying, Jimmy, Joshua and JW. All my best buddies. Went there to celebrate Joshua's bdae which is today. Went to places like Holiday Plaza , The Store and City Square. Also went to look around for Rudy Project specs. Found afew and is so much cheaper than S'pore.

Felt so good being with my old friends. I feel so comfortable being with them, talking and joking around with them. These are whom I feel is my best of friends. Been thinking alot this weekend. I think I'll just leave it to God, have faith in him and he will guide me on. Dont worry about tomorrow for tommorrow has its own worries. Just be independent and concentrate on work will do.

Visited Grandma today and realised that she's getting weaker as days goes by. Worried sick! Was talking to my 4th uncle about Ah MA's health condition and he told me Ah Ma got to stay in for at least 1 more month. Hope she'll be fine.

Alot of things to say but think it'll be too much. Just forget it and be independent.

EKYNOX SX

2004-07-23T10:37:00.000+08:00

Now emerge top in my wanted list - EKYNOX SX!

Talked, but solved?

2004-07-23T10:21:00.000+08:00

As usual, wed I had only 2 hours of lessons. Then went to meet up with Ying at YCK MRT. So nice of her to cook lunch for me. We went down to SIR building at Lavender to get my passport extended as we are going Malaysia today (Friday). Had our lunch at the cafeteria. She cooked spagetti for me and some chicken wings.. Thanks Dear!

Then went down to Optimistique Pte Ltd to check on the Rudy Project Shades. Tried on a few model and find that Ekynox SX is still the best! Was considering between Rydon SX or Ekynox SX. Ekynox Sx emerged top in my list. But today going Malaysia, so wanted to check out the prices there first before making my purchase.

Managed to talk to this good friend of mine. Whether things goes on fine and as usual, I'll leave it to got and ourselves. Bought a Adidas Tee on Wed but darn! I lost my camera cable and so cant upload the pics. Well, will be waitng for lessons to end then come home to pack my stuff for Malaysia.. Heard that the girls are no longer going so only left with Me, Josh, JW, Jim and Ying ba.

7:41AM WED 21/7/2004

2004-07-21T07:41:00.000+08:00

Now the time is 7:41 am and surprisingly I'm already awake. Was already rolling around the bed at 6.15am. Got up, brush my teeth and then sat in the living room reading the papers. Dont what the hell I wake up so early for also.

Suppose to go for my runs around my house but the darn weather spoils the plan... it's RAINNING! Today will be going to school at 10am then finish around 12pm. Should be meeting Ying to go out. Weather was so good now and I should be sleeping...

Now looking for that darn camera cable. Dont know where did I left it. I think I'll go back to sleep.

FRIENDS

2004-07-21T00:56:00.000+08:00

Well, dont have the chance to talk to this good friend of mine. But the time will come man. Today really enjoyed the night with most of the guys in my class hanging around for dinner and laughter. Wonderful time indeed. Maybe should set it every Tuesday night.

Looking back, 2 years of school just past in a glimpse, really fast. Very soon will be entering the army. Jianyi will be going into the Commandos Unit tomorrow. Wish him all the best bro! Had a good chatting and supper session with KC just now. Talking about our problems and he is still stuck with the problem of money. I cant do much for him but just hope I can be of help in one way or another be it just listening to him splashing out his problem.

Now I realised friends are so important to me. Sometimes Ying also scolded me for always thinking about friends. Did not talk to Ying today but managed to see her in school. Good to see her and our relationship still kicking strong. Heard Daniel is in the hospital, will pay him a visit tomorrow after class. Oh ya, gotta get Josh his bdae present. Cant forget!

Bother Alot

2004-07-19T11:05:00.000+08:00

Well, school started for a week le and its going quite fine, meeting up with all the poly friends and classmates. Finally got the last pay cheque from TAS. Have not been blogging for the past 1 week.

Alot of things happened and I also do not know how to put it in words here. Been exercising and training up with Joshua (Swimming most of the time). Visited my Grandma at CGH yesterday and darn, she looks weaker. Really hopes nothing will happen to my beloved Granny. Poor Ying was that she had to be with me for the whole day yesterday. Sorry dear.

Well, was thinking about the topic on friends. I had a good friend but turn out that we seem to like having some problems but not telling and confrinting to each other. I don't know what really happened but it's really bothering me.

Better pack for school. Cya

Oakley - Half Jacket Black Iridium $221 WANTED!

School Starts

2004-07-14T00:19:00.000+08:00

School had already started. Until now still got the working feeling and mood. Have not really adjust back too studying life. This is the second day of school, nothing much surprising. Got appointed as the class rep.

Well, today in the morning sent some files to all the TAS staff thought that those files maybe of use to them in the future. Then JW suddenly asked me to go Bras Besah with him to buy something. He picked me up at my house. Tried some Oakley specs there and seriously thought of buying. I think I've made up my mind by buying the Oakley Half Jacket BLack which cost $221. The polarized lense will cost $389.Then head back to school for lesson. Darn, I was late. After lessons, I headed down to gym with a few friends. Did 15 pull ups today. My own record. Use to be 13 the most. After gym got the CRM lecture. Boring. Dad pick me up in school to visit Ah Ma at hospital but we ended up going home because Dad says that Ah Ma is in the ICU and only 2 can visit her and so ended up not going.

Sian man, actually wanted to go J8 get something. Plan spoilt by Dad. Darn. Nvm, Tomorrow still got time. Cheers everyone!

Finally Over!

2004-07-11T22:59:00.000+08:00

Finally IPP is over. Last day of work got good lunch from Doctor Lee as he treated us to Chalton Hotel for Tim Sum. The Tim Sum there is simply delicious but expensive. At night went to SPE Stadium to see the kids train for the last time. haha. Was talking to WL and he told me some stuffs about him. Then parted.

Well, my aim is to complete the accreditation thing. So I'll work on. Then went to meet up with Joshua and Jimmy before going down to pick Ying up at Costa Sand. Then send her home as she was in pain.

Sat went to shop at Orchard with Ying. Had a light lunch with Ying at Kenny Rogers, ordering just the side dishes. I love the side dishes there. Then went ot walk around and sorting out our problems and now PPROBLEM FREE! We shop and shop, from Suntec to Marina to Orchard. We both bBought a New Balance Shorts from the sale at World of Sports and I also bought a Columbia Berms. Caught a midnight show at Yishun and then home.

Sunday morning was helping out my Dad with the new fish tank. Then met up with Ying as she brought me to Jean Yip for a hair cut. First time in my life being cut by such high end salons. Outcome I think its ok, not bad. Then went over to CGH to visit my grandma. Operation for her starts on Tuesday. So I will be going to CGH quite regularly next week. After visiting, went to bishan to walk around and have dinner. Had kuey chap and still taste as good.

Tomorrow school will be starting, wondering how's everyone. As most of my lesson are in the afternoon, most probably tomorrow (Mon) morning will be going for a swim before I head for school. Excited about school. Good day tomorrow for Ying and I and All! God bless All~!

Work out SOMETHING!

2004-07-08T00:11:00.000+08:00

Today was at SSc doing my work, doing up attendance list for the trainees to ensure they come and not waste their money. Then sort out the payments and the forms of the trainees. Went back to Pool to get the 2 medals to be rework and the Mr Kuok's brief case. Darn cock brief case. Heard that Doc Lee will be giving us a treat at Grand Corpthorn this Fri (marks the end of IPP) HOOO!

Met Bryan for dinner at GAPZ where we get to eat tim sum buffet and sushi buffet and free flow of drinks. Use the money I lent to treat us for dinner. Treating i feel is not a problem ba, just hoping that the friendship remains strong ba. Well, we ate till we full and chatted quite some things and then went shopping.

Met Joshua and Ben at the interchange and we chatted about bicycles till I dun feel like going home. Sis told me the house black out again and so I took that chance to go back later. Heng by the time I reach home got lights le. Well, still pondering about that accreditation thing. Hope I can be able to work out something from there. Praise God~!

Me and KC bbq-ing.

Michael, KC and I

2004-07-07T02:44:00.000+08:00

Me, KC and Michael at a BB BBQ. KC as usual is a brother of mine whom we've share ups and downs inn BB and outside life. Not my gay partner dun worry. Just simply mr great brother!

Ponder Goes On...

2004-07-07T02:14:00.000+08:00

Today was at SSC doing up the school's contacts again. Darn Shack. Went back to the pool at around 6.15pm. Did some accounts with people paying for the training and OSIM race. Quite scare to handle money as it's quite troublesome if not calculated well or lost. Chat with the parents abit and told WL to wait for all the parents and people leave before going for a swim as I feel that is right.

Was pondering about quite a number of things. Yesterday, my uncle told me and Ying on how to maintain a relationship. What he did was to travel to other countries every 1 or 2 years. Hmmm.. quite true as only you 2 spend the time together and serious ponder about the relationship. Number 2 thing that I was pondering was the NCAP acreditation to become a Triathlon Coach. Now, there is no one doing it and Daryl was saying to me to take it up as a project and maybe when it really works I can make money from there and for the association as well. Who knows?

Met KC for dinner and chatted quite alot till about 1.45am! And what's more tomorrow I got work. Mostly we talked about BB on whats going on now and etc... Number 3 thing in my mind is whether or not to go back 5th Coy to serve. Pondering goes on.

Well, 3 more days to completion of IPP. Was told that we will be reimburse with the amount of OT hours we did. WL and I calculated and amount to be 38.5 hours (not including the trainings I tag with him). But its ok la, I'm fine. Sometimes he also give me Sat off for quite a number of times so I dun see it a point why I should claim this. Well, looking back indeed has learnt quite a number of things from TAS. Thanks

*damn lazy

2004-07-05T23:12:00.000+08:00

Well, today was at SSC doing work. As usual, as IPP left only 1 week, I've been rather lazy to do work. No rest after an event that's shit feeling. Today gotta know that we'll be compensated for the hours we worked OT. Counting down already.

Was doing on the Inter-School Aquathlon already. Was doing up the excel spreadsheet for all the schools in Singapore.! that's hell. This small country got more than 350 schools! Tomorrow gonna continue. Sian. Last week le got so many things to do.

After work, went to visit my Grandma at Changi Hospital with Ying. Damn docs see the wrong results and thought it was Ah Ma's. We all thought Ah Ma was in serious condition of her cancer. Shock of our lives. Luckily the cancer is not spreading yet. Thank God. Went for dinner and then sent Ying back home.

Lastly, still wanna pray for Ah Ma's condition. Hope she'll recover fast. Amen

New Balance Aquathlon Challenge 2004

Refresh but Worried

2004-07-04T22:49:00.000+08:00

Well, went for 'chalet' this weekend with Ying. Feel so refreshing. Got home and was dead tired and sleep all the way till my mum and aunt called me to go and join them. Woke up at 4.00pm and went to join them. Saw my aunt bought N-gage for the cousin. My Angie aunt bought the Sony Ericsson E700i. Quite nice.. think i'm gonna get that too instead of Nokia 7610 coz seems like everybody talking about that phone and I feel that its so common.

Went to aunt's house to hear the releasing of 4D results. Invested but did not win. haha.. more chances to come. Promise to treat Ying to a hair treatment. No problem dear.

Heard from my mum this morning that my Grandma had been admitted to Changi Hospital. They told me that what Ah ma ate sh just vomit out. Think her condition is getting worst. I will definately blame it on the doctors. Why Ah Ma went for so many full body checkups and yet the doctors did not mention about the cancer till now? It has been already a month. How can negligence plays apart in this now! It's my grandma's life in stake now. What are the doctors doing?!! Anyway, lucky my Ah ma looks fine when I went to visit her. Funny thing is that she ask me to quickly get married. Haha.. dear.. see this msg? Tomorrow will go and visit her again as to see how's her condition. Results of her X-ray will be out tomorrow so will then decide and know how's the cancer stage. Hope nothing happens to Ah Ma.

5 days more to completing IPP. Really cant wait to finish. On friday when we were at SPE stadium, Daryl was saying to me to help out in the training as part of my own project. Hmm, thinking about it also dont know are they serious about it anot. 5 days and that's it. Persever on!

Well, think next week most probably will be frequent be going to the hospital as I'm worried for Ah ma. Pray for her ba. Pray that Ah Ma will recover soon.

God Bless All!

2004-07-03T11:39:00.000+08:00

Good morning Saturday to all! Wooo.. 1 more week of IPP more before I head back to school. Really look forward to it. Well, these few days had been spending more time at SSC than Club House. More relax. Had a chat with Bryan on Thursday and was like so long never talk already. Recently heard from my uncle that there is a cancer tumor in my grandma's tummy. I really hope nothing will happen to her as she is the one who brought me up taking so good care of me and my sis. God, please bless her and heal her in your name, AMEN.

Was doing up some articles on the participants of Aquathlon and yesterday just went to SPE Stadium to see the new trainees come in. Not many of them but still glad as the kids were so darn cute. haha. Had some chatting session with some parent and a particular parent was like so active with his son, making him tired everytime inorder to stop his son from thinking of other things. Well, seeing them train is really so relax, especially in SPE Stadium some more. Then had a run with WL, 1st round of run was like 80 seconds! we were like, "So Fast ah?!" haha.. but I did not managed to last through out. I only did a 2km run while WL did a 2.4 km run. Did some pull ups and sit ups before packing home. Suppose to go shop with my Dad at Boss but becoz of my runs and work, i forego it. Sian, there goes my belt.

Got home, bathed and drove down to meet Ying. She asked some questions and I dont know what happened, i say back at her. I'm sorry dear. Yesterday night was like so a bad day, was quarrelling with dear about work. Sorry ba. Hope today will be better! Then after sending Ying home, I went to fetch my mum and aunt home.

Today got no work as WL went for seminar with Doctor Lee and Wei dong. Woke up at 10am and was like such a good sleep. Dad wanna bring me for mole removal. Haha. Wanted to do that but expensive la so now he says it, ok loh.. he's paying. Now at home all bathed and hungry. Waiting for Dad to come back and later gonna meet Ying.

Well, let's hope today will be a better day! God Bless All.

Target: NUS Triathlon

2004-06-30T23:19:00.000+08:00

Soon IPP will be over. Continue to persever on. Although its already the tenth week of IPP but these 2 weeks really pass slowly. I've been wanting to go back to school and release from work. After the event, really felt so sian of working and stop chionging. Events company really tiring. Although this may not be addressing to all the events company, but TAS is really killing me or us.

Just got my timetable not too long ago. Look at it, was like shit, earliest lesson starts at 8.00am! but the good thing is the modules spreads out quite well ba. Now Angela Tan has left, just as I predicted, FU QIANG will be teaching us NSA management. F***. Well, my modules are more specialize now. Totally different from what Ying is taking.

Oh YES.. SPIDERMAN 2 is out in the cinemas. Can't wait to catch that show. My childhood hero. Haha. Newspaper rates it quite high, but even its low, I will still catch it. Has been going back to my exercising routine recently and its feeling great. Did a Swim and Run on mon with Joshua. Nearly got me killed. Haha.. Yeasterday was out with Ying, got her a bag from Blood Brothers. The model she wants is sold out islandwide but just get her a quite similiar one ba. Hope she likes it. Had our dinner at Sushi Teh (Paragon) and the atmosphere was like so class. Walk around Orchard after dinner and found that Heeren changed quite abit.

Today went to gym with Joshua again. Now our aim is to train for NUS Triathlon. Haha.. Yes that's our target. Going for the easiest catergory as a start. Well, wish us luck! God Bless All!

Event Finally OVER!

2004-06-27T21:33:00.000+08:00

Finally! the event is over. Everything went out quite well and smooth. Was in charge of the membership booth. Quite a number of people sign up as member and some still needa consider through. But everything was good with the help of Leir, Siew Ling (Woonlong's GF), Gladys da-jie, Yati and Jennifer (Mark's GF). Bad thing was the human traffic flow to our booth. Simply not enough. After event ended, I drove the van from SSC tp Sentosa to fetch the stuff and equipments. Was damn pissed with some things. Well, talk cock with Yati during the drive back to club house.

At the club house, everybody was already eating and I was like err.. so many things to carry back. Talk to Dezhong, sharing with us about China. Everybpdy was like drinking and chatting happily. But the worst thing is that I felt sian. Damn sian and tired. Was dying to go off. Eventually, I let alone and tok a cab back. the feeling was like a relieve that i can go. They all got people's car to Tong Pang while I dont. Nvm, the feeling is just too sian to describe. Took a cab to Yishun to look for Ying. Has been a week ever since i met her. On the phone she was like crying away. I asked her why and what happened, she still dont wanna say until I asked her sister. It's because the hairdresser did a bad job with her hair and she felt so ugly. Ya, indeed the job was damn poorly done. What's more is that the salon is Sandy's mum's Salon. Anyway dear, you still look good. Chat with her and consoling her before going back home. Reached hone only at 2am. Bathed and go to bed straight. Haven had such a good sleep for a long time.

Woke up at 11am this morning. Actually can be later but have a family lunch with my grandma and relatives so bo bian. Ying also went and we picked her up from the MRT bus stop. Had a great lunch at Amoy street. Then went over to Wan chu auntie's house to slack. There they go again talking about 4D. haha. I also deposit some money there but din tio. Nvm . Next week! Went to walk around Junction 8 with Ying. We din wanna travel far. Drove Dad's car to send Ying back and then went back to fetch my parents. Brought my sister to see a doctor and then went home.

Tomorrow is another day fo work. Weekend past so fast. Hope tomorrow will be a better day. Take care! God Bless!

Energy Burnt out

2004-06-25T00:57:00.000+08:00

Another long day at work. It is the most sian thing one could ever face is when you look into the clock and see it strikes 6.00pm and you still cannot be able to go home. I think it is the most sian. But come on, last burst of fire.

Well, sad to say is that the pricing for training is still not confirmed! How am I going to sell? hmm, alot of people disagrees with WL's proposal. I see it and I also feel it's too cheap. I believe we should set a bench mark on the price and sell the true quality of work. Now, although the people are paying less, but they are still not getting the quality. What's the point. I might as well spent more and see results. Right? But, i can only propose. I'm not the decision maker. Well, see how it goes.

Was doing up the training and double checking on the prizes of the event. Then do some calling and coodinating. Went to buy food at 3 plus with Yati and we were like chatting on the Job on camp instructor that we did. Fun and got lobang she will find me. Haha. shiok. Camp instructor had always been fun, working with kids.

Life at TAS has never been easy. Waiting for the sport (Triathlon) to grow and thenthings wont be so tough. Have not met up with Ying for quite a couple of days le somehow becoz I'm all tighted down by work. Sorry dear. By now she's already alseep and so I shall wish her a good nite and sweet dreams. Also, if she sees this blog of mine, Good morning dear!

Training and Development has always been challenging. Wonder how will I handle it if i'm solely incharge of it. Well, wonders goes on and on. Met up with Kai Chow for supper. Long time did not meet up with him and therefore take this time to ask him out for prata or something. Other thing is also becoz i'm hungry and no one to eat with ba. haha. Sister went for camp.. bored.

Well, tomorrow's gonna be another busy day for me and the staff. God bless the event and all! Hope that more people will join TAS as member and also our Training Program. My objective: Find 15 new members to sign up and 20 kids for training program. God bless my hope. Good night all!

Time don't waits

2004-06-24T09:16:00.000+08:00

I say weekend past so fast. Now i realized the night past even faster. Another day of work. My life now just simply revolves around work. So shack out. Too tired and lazy to take a train and therefore the consequences will be to wake up earlier and reach workplace earlier. It was like i close my eyes and the next day comes. Yesterday has been discussing about training program, packing the prizes and stuff.. too lazy to think.

Reach home at around 11.00pm. Look into the mirror and realized that I've slim down. Simply becoz I skip meals most of the times this week. Well, that's work when it's busy ba. Just gonna live with it but I look at other companies, they dun even work till that late. Only TAS! Don't know should i say i regret joinning TAS or not, but i've really learnt quite alot here from all departments. Again, WL throw me all alone in TAS club house.

Haven been talking to Ying for the past few days. Only communicated through SMS. Started talking on the phone and we quarrelled. Damn sway. Just afraid to lose her ba. Sorry dear. I make sure after IPP I'm going to give myself a break. Just wanna spent time resting and relaxing my mind and spending my time with Ying and my friends. Haven't been spending time with my friends, shopping and of coz EXERCISE!

Aquathlon is on this coming Saturday. Hope everything goes on well. God Bless All!

Experienced

2004-06-23T01:11:00.000+08:00

Just got home from work. Was working since 9am in the morning. Wosh.. dead tired. Today plainly just did some coordinating work, calling and liasing with some companies and Sentosa. Pretty fun. Then help out in the adminstration work, finding and digging some letters out of the whole damn chunk. But finally found all. While we were at our utmost busy moment, the contractors came to disturb us. Ask us to move the shelf and stuff while they are outside smoking. We were like, "What the Hell? We are paying them know?" Has meeting with WeiDong, Daryl and Pam about the training program. Hmmm fun.. was seeing the training things moving. Oh ya, WL is on reservist, and so, I was like coordinating his whole things for him. Went Sentosa yesterday to show Daryl the route and talk to Kelvin - the event contractor for Sentosa.

Mostly did adminstrative work today. Well, yesterday was quite fun, working in SSC packing all the championchips and stuff. DR Lee was there too, he was such nice man. Joker also. Full of knowlegde, experience and welfare for his people. Respect. Seriously a true kind man. Pack all those championchips back into championchip room and then DR Le drove me and Yati off.

Was working till i neglected most of the things in my life - exercising, friends and most of all, my GF Ying. She went gym alone and waited for me. Even bought me Ba Zhang to eat but i ended up not meeting her. So guilty. Was meeting with Daryl till i forgot that my phone was not with me. Sorry dear. I promise to make up for it.

Got home now, relaxing freeing my mind about work. Came home, mum told me aunt passed my money to my DAD. I was like goner. All my plans of saving was like i feel 50% gone. But i don't care. I dont want my plans to go bogger. I'm going to get it back! Got some info about the Nike Real Run. This time am going to ask Venu whether he wanna join as he went with me last year. This sat is our New Balance Aquathlon Challenge. May God Bless the event and all the staff and personnel.

Lastly, Sorry Dear. Sweet Dreams

Well, this week has been a Damn bz week. As the evening is drawing closer and closer, more things began to pop up. More participants coming to register last minute. For me, on sat i was in charge of the volunteer registration, damn cock up as it was a job passed to me last minute. Then was to instruct the students on the Goodie Bag packing.. Wosh.. Finally packing is over but still got those lucky draw prizes. So sick and tired.

Left TAS quite late on Sat, about 6.45pm. Rush back home to get myself changed and then rush off for Sandy's Birthday party at East Coast Chalet. That was the 1st time that my Dad lent me his car for the whole night. Had a nice catching up with Webster, Shaun, Chongho and a those bunch of Best Classmates of mine. Really enjoy the time being with your. Thanks Buddies! Drove Ying there and back, went to play pool with them. Sent Evelyn home and was like couldn't find our way there. Realised that Sembawang is a damn ulu place. So Dead Quiet at night. But finally sent her home safely.

Sent Ying home and she was telling me not to go to work on Sunday. She feels that i'm too tired and indeed so I am. Thanks dear! Slept at home till 10am and then went to Fu Lu Shuo with my aunts and uncle to follow them to pray!!@ OMG.. I thought they tell me that they are going to visit my grandma and that's why i followed.. Followed my mum and family for the whole day today, playing mj with my aunts, and My aunt so damn lucky, tio 4D again. I was like .. what the/?? Did not meet up with Ying today. Kinda miss her. Realized weekend past so fast, I really hard can catch my breathe. Looking at my cousins, i envy them so much.. their holidays.. Haven't had a long break ever since 1 year ago? TIRED is the WORD..

WANTED

2004-06-13T22:24:00.000+08:00

Sat - Went to collect banner from studio gallery, after that went over to sentosa to hang it. Went to Siloso beach for a site recce while woon long wanna test out the swim route. Got the idea of the whole site already. So damn excited. After that went seperate ways. Hanging around cityhall for about 1.5 hours waiting for Ying. Initially wanna bring my camera for repair but Olympus repair centre closes at 2.30pm on sat. Meet up with Ying, dunnoe what happened to her eyes but can see that she's in pain. Maybe is her new pair of contacts. 2 of us then took bus 16 down to East Coast for our dinner and strolling. Cool place. Saw alot of people with their tents and bbq. Had tim sum, curry veg and Hokkien Mee for dinner.. woo.. damn full. Sat at the Beach and began talking and looking at the wide sea. Ying was trying to find topic to talk while i was there stoning and relaxing my mind. Haha.
Sun - Finally make the effort to go down to my home church Living Praise Presbyterian Church. Church has been quite with no musicians today as most of them went for a church camp at Quantan. Church ended early at ard 11.45am. Then went to the gym after the service with Ying. Been quite a good work out as the gym doesn't have much people. Bathed and then went down to Orchard to collect some body shop stuff for my aunt, costing me $40. Saw the new Nokia 7610, quite nice leh i feel. But i also would like to try out the new Motorola phone V600. Motorola has changed to a more user friendly phone le and not bad looking too. I remembered the old Startec X was so hot last time. Went to IKEA with Ying and her sisters to see some furniture. Her 2nd sister is moving out le and that's why they have been visiting IKEA quite often these few weeks. Mei Ying sent me home and that's my day. Realised that mum has been out for about 6 days leh. She's now happily spending her holiday at Taiwan while her children is in home country. Hopefully she buys some stuff for us. House has been quit emessy without my mum with clothes not washed. Haaha.. Stinks. Alot of things has been poping up on my WANT list. 2 top listed are the timbuk2 bag and the V600 Motorola phone. Dream of it day and night.

Excited

2004-06-11T23:25:00.000+08:00

Today was stationed at SSC. In the morning, went over to the Badminton Federation to loan some stocks and equipment out to the Triathlon Family. We had a so called store room there (A huge container). Inside that container got all our bike racks and stuff, damn hot and stuffy inside there, can hardly breathe. Took a few tubes of cups back to the championchip store. Then we to count those cups in the ChampionChip room. There are a total of 14303 cups. 1 box in particular, when i opened, a cockroach just ran out. The other thing was that all its eggs are inside.. I was like, wah lau.. next time when joining event dun dare to used their cups. Was told that maybe i will be taking care of the swim leg. Hmmm.. exciting. After the cups, i was coordinating and calling the stuff needed for the swim leg such as the powerboat, canoes, canosist, jet skis and the lifeguards. For the Lifeguards and canoeist, i approached my friend, Matthew. Woo lucky got him or else gotta pay to hire. Emailed out to my friends regarding the event or helping out, but none replied. Sian. Saw Sukri while going for lunch, he was having lunch at the malay store in SSC. Wo, was like a long time ever since i see him. He was wearing his new RED Nike Tennis shoe he bought. Nice dude, bo jio me.

After lunch, typed an email to the Justin (President of the Jet Ski Federation). Getting excited about the whole coordination of the swim leg. After work, went to meet Ying at cityhall, went for dinner at Thai Express and the food is not bad. Love the Olive rice. Walk around Suntec and then left for home. Got her home safetly.

Tomorrow will be working also, but in the afternoon. Going down to collect the banner from Studio Gallery and then rush down to Sentosa to hang it up for advertisement. Hopefully this will somehow or rather boost the entry numbers. Initially the plan was to come out with the banner fast, but things do cock up. Has been chatting quite alot with WL, sharing about our views on work and training. Also talking about the Development part, I really feel like going down to the roots to help and build it up, but what am I? Nice talking dude. Lets all hope and Pray that the event (Aquathlon Challenge) will be a success! God Bless All!

So Near Yet so Far

2004-06-10T23:55:00.000+08:00

Just put down the phone with Ying and then decided to come update my blog. Think Ying and I have misunderstandings somewhere. Sorry if I'm in the wrong. Work - Internet has been down recently and seems like everyone can work without it as most of the Full time staff requires to check their mail. Today went to collect some of the sponsored items and went back TAS to do some brainless work on the goods. Called up some parents regarding the training program. Found out that staff in TAS are not happy with WL, maybe with the ways he did things or whatsoever, I'm not to say much. But seems like so. Some say this and some say that. I bare no grudges against him or anyone. I'll just live with that till attachment is over. Been keeping a close update on the entry numbers (I dunno why also but that's what 'he' wants and so i'll just update him) But I think the entry numbers are not the things we can control. If the entry is bad and we have did our part, i think we have to really look back and analyze what we have gone wrong ba. If not, i think always looking at the entry numbers are of no use. End up the admin has to collate many many times.
Well, somethings at work simply just bothers me alot. I'll just keep it to myself ba. I find that rather unprofessional. So near and so close once, yet so Far.

Well, realised that i've been quite in consistent on updating of blog. Always get home late and dead tired either after gym or outside hanging. Mon - Was in the club house doing work, making phone calls and typing stuff. Internet was down and none of us can be able to do anything. Stone. Will e going to Port Dickson with TAS on the 9th to 11th July. So happy to hear that but i foresee things..... Dear was like so disappointed.. haha.. sorry. Went to the gym at khatib as Jim and Jos were both not going and therefore, i went to the gym near dear's home. Long walk though, but the gym was huge, much much bigger than Bishan. Went to eat at 8 tou and then went home. Oh ya, learning thing in my head was of what Mark said, we have to do what we can for the sponsors and even the tiny little thing have to take note of such as the model in the banner wearing adidas shirt. That is totally unacceptable. I agree and i believe all agree. Learning point. Heard complains about training too. Think we can do about that. Yeah. Anyway, Cheer up guys!
God bless all!

Festival of Praise

2004-06-06T01:12:00.000+08:00

Woo.. attended 2 nights of Festival of Praise. Really good with Hillsongs leading the worship. Amazing.. so excited even when i think back. Well did not update my blog for a couple of days le. Fri - Was at Stadium working, hunting down those who haven pay up their money, typing in all the emails and also allocating of swim caps. Went for the 1st session of FOP. After attending, felt so good that i'm so excited to ask pple to go tomorrow. Performance was great. Attended with Bryan. After FOP, left to meet Ying alone as Bryan went to eat with his god Sis. Met up with Ying at Cityhall, then we headed to Yishun to catch a midnite show (Harry Potter). Sat - Slept till 10 am, it's about 5 hours of sleep. Gotta woke up as there are people coming my house to fix the air condition. From then on, i stayed awake all the way. Went to the Gym with Ying, Joshua and Jimmy. Ying was mad at me for not waiting for her at the control station. I'm realy sorry about that. Know that this few days i had not been that caring towards you. Apologise for that. After gym, went for dinner at pasta mania and then left for Indoor stadium with additional people - Jun wee and Jian Yi. Was another amazing and fantastic performance. After FOP, we head down to geylang street to have supper - Frog leg porridge. Food was not bad but service was so damn slow. After supper, we then go seperate ways. Home sweet Home.

Walk around Suntec after dinner and then went into Royal Sporting House and saw a Umbro Tee.. Bought it eventually.

Today din really did much work. Thought was suppose to meet WL in swimming pool but he did not turn up.. think he;s rather bz being the coordinator of the event. I just did some things that he said, to call up parents and athletes to inform them about the money. the rest of the day is simply chatting around, surfing and helping bryan with the participant tags. Went for dinner with Khai, Rashid and bryan at Gandhi Restaurant. The food was not bad. Gave them a treat as once in a while i feel that its fine. Chat about quite some stuff and i realised that their pay is higher than mine.. so curious y.. anyway.. nvm la. Then went ove Takashimaya to meet up wif dear and justin. Walked ard searching for sandy's bday present. Shop ard the supermarket at khatib and bought some groceries. Went home after that. Day ended. Trying to treat triathlon as my passion. Cheers. Exam results drawing nearer. All the Best to ALL! and especially to DEAR! Nitez!

Went to BK to have my lunch alone.. thinking of what should i do. Heard that the other table is promoting the MLM products and business. I feel so sad for the victim. haha. Went over to TAS club house to get some work done, but the coach subsidy is not very well done i must say. The rest of the work will be to remove the medals and then upload the photos.

Today went to Montford Secondary to publicise on our event and training program again. It was like so different compared to the primary schools. Response was not that great but still not bad. Thank God we've met some supportive teachers and VP that introduce us to other schools and that's why we are going MARIS STELLA HIGH SCHOOL tomorrow! Excited to spread the word around, imaginating all going to take part in the race and training. Dreaming away. Went back to TAS to do some last min calling and following up. Called KCPPS, spoke to Aibee, but think she cant remember me and also i think my tone of voice was not right. Went for a swim with WL, wow.. 30 laps non stop.. that's my 1st time and i clock about 36 mins. not bad ba.. 2 laps freestyle and then all breast strokes. Sway thing is that on my final sprint, my left calve cramp. Weakling ah. till now oso ache.
