I've shifted.... Changed blog...

Redirect me! ! ! !

Relink me! ! !

=D

There I was sitting in the cinema watching the "The Leap Years" and through my mind was running with lots of thoughts. Apart, from the love story line, I'd say the environment, the music, the atmosphere... just everything about it makes it feel so me. Strange but I've never really been able to express them in words... only from the things around me. Just happens that this whole "place" seems so familiar.

I guess that's why music relates to me alot. It says all about how I feel even without the words.

Have you ever compared that "you" when you're sitting alone at home after shower with your mind relaxing and wondering through how much your life went past. Compared to the "you" when you're out with your friends, parents or even the spouse? Who of yourself do you feel closer to?

I'm not sure if its a good thing. But the first option is more of me. Well, you can say I'm a person who likes to appreciate the environment around myself. And sometimes I do feel that "lonesome" self, just lying back and dwelling into simplicity of life.

Don't get me wrong, I still love Elle with all my heart and she's the best girl I've met. Though we still have lots of things to learn from one another but if you give me another chance to choose someone else, I'd rather glue myself to her. =D *Love you sweets!

Its been awhile... did a little thinking...

here's the question.

We live on this earth once...

Would you give up your interest/passion in doing something that you think you can truly excel?

OR

Would you follow what others tell you to seek even though its the best opportunity to them?

One gives you satisfaction and accomplishment while the latter simply provides you the substantial attainment to life.

It has been a question for years and I thought I've answered it. But once again this has resurface...

Shit happens all the time regardless of where you are or what you do. And things just get that tad bit worse when you're in National Service.

As you progress through time, you seem to have more responsibilities over your men. But not only does your allowance remain the same, you're bounded between your authority as a leader and the people whom you work so closely with and yet you're compelled to justify their actions when its "unlawful". Police catching one another... my goodness.

On the other side of life, things have been quite a ride. One bright side of it is that I just attained my marksmanship and also a sliver timing under SOC's (Special Operation Command) ippt table. Glad that I got that extra $300 this month too! Arrived in my pockets just in time for Chinese New Year.

As for my CNY shopping spree... Well, it wasn't exactly what I had pictured. My "To-get-list" just seemed to be more expensive than I thought! LOL! Well, but it was the scouting with lil chun mei and mum that made it so much more enjoyable.

Oh, even bought myself a shoe rack which had no instructions whatsoever. There was just a packet of different kinds of nails which me and chun mei had to experiment with different options how to assemble that thing together. But as she says... it tests the tension in a relationship. -laughs-

I have no idea why I'm feeling the way I am now.

Its probably the environment. It could be this period of time. Or it could even be the sheer bad luck that seems to dawn on me.

Nothing seems to go right at all...

What's happening...

Everyone seems to be doing some reflection for 2007 as a new year approaches. I guess one way or another, we've all moved on. I wish all my friends a Happy New Year! May the coming year bring you success, happiness, fulfillment, and contentment. Lets just do a little self-reflection;

Some of my reflections this year:

- It seems just yesterday when I was struggling during BMT. It was a good experience. But then again... you know I'm lying. HAHA!

- I did what I wanted to achieve this year. Attain driving license and getting my braces. Not that much I can do in NS anyways.

- Love just seems to nurture too. Elle and myself understand one another better. We are just the same as we once began. Which I think its really really extraordinary. And they say feelings change... ha!


My 2008 Resolutions:

- Attain my degree

- Attain my diploma in Music

- If possible.... Get a car (Need all the luck)

- Come up with a career plan which can be a real nutcrack.

Somehow 2008 seems so much more hectic. But enthralling at the same time. Gosh I so cant wait till ord!!!

Mission Failed.

Its the time of the year where we gather together and celebrate this "Christ-mas" day.

I want to wish bubbly baby Chun Mei a Blessed Christmas.

I want to wish my Family a Joyful Christmas.

I want to wish my friends Merry Christmas.

And I definately want to wish Jesus, Happy Birthday.

Merry Christmas to All ! ! !

Day 1 of absence...

As usual, went for work in the early morning... Been trying hard to push myself to at least train up myself for the coming ippt. But as usual it was to no avail given the fact that people like Terence and gang just had to tempt me and eat like 3 times while we met for a supposedly "dinner" which resulted in dinner, coffee and eventually supper all within 4 hours! But thanks, felt great...

Lots of attractive movies have been showing all around the island. Bleagh... cant wait for baby to return then maybe.... and just maybe.... we could have a movie marathon! Somehow I'm kinda looking forward to Chun Mei's return. Honestly, I'm like expecting many gifts which I've got no clue why I might deserved them. Maybe because I'm waiting for your souvenirs from Japan and also christmas presents!!!! *hops hops


*Birthday is coming.... BIRTHDAY is COMING!!!!!

Yea I know... Its been a while since I've blog. My internet connection has giving me headaches and I've been running up and down Sim Lim! Sigh... the disadvantage of being a computer nerd.

Anyways, Chun Mei is going to Japan tomorrow for her holidays, leaving me here in Singapore alone... =( But know whats the worse thing? She's been saying... "Later SQ355 crash... news will report that there will be no survivors... yada yada yada..." Haha! Such an attention seeker! Cute nonetheless. I do wish her bon voyage, safety, and may she have her very first experience playing in snow! Enjoy yourself ling! =D Whether you're half way around the world, I'll be missing you so bad... -hugs-

Looking back, I realised I've finally went through about 15mths in National Service. Just another 8mths more to go before I can finally do things that I really wanna do! Oh please, make time fly faster!

Sometimes when I look around at people, I wonder... Is love really blind? Do people not mind feeling "apart" from friends just to be with his/her partner. What if it goes to the extend of loosing friends then? No matter what, I think one shouldn't take advantage of others in order to get that kind of ego boost or confidence in themselves. It just doesn't feel right to me...

Asean Summit begins tomorrow. Sigh... another 5 days of hardcore duty around the same venue. Apparently an estimation of 130 BMWs both the 7 series and the 5 series will be used to chauffeur the delegates around. After the meeting ends, the cars will be sold at 50% the market price to the public with the plate number "ASN"! wicked.

I asked my Senior Officers why do they require so many officers from the army and the police force with at least 5 over kinds of divisions in the same location! The reason I was told, "To make sure there would no form of protest or riot". Duh. But then again, who's really smart enough to stage something like that?! LOL! I'd love to see some action though.

Ah... with the festive occasion drawing closer, my illness is drawing even nearer. I'm kinda feeling flu, sore throat, etc. But the good thing is... I can ORD a few months earlier. Reason being I'm gonna opt for an operation to have my tonsillitis removed after repeated attacks. At least I'll be able to ORD at least 2 months earlier if I decide to clear my remaining leave. Great news! To me at least...

Gosh... Been brainwashed into Facebook, something that has unfortunately gotten me a little addicted to it. So pardon me if many have received some nudges along the way... LOL! I'm still trying to learn the 'this and thats".

Well apart from that, I've received my driving license which I thought the photo resembled a Myanmar immigrant! =( wondered what happened along the way.

Elle aka Chun Mei aka Veronica aka "something else" is having toughest exam yet this Tuesday. I wanna wish her the best of it and may she hold the paper, jumping up with joy when she receives the results soon after. =DD

Ok, thought I should write more... but erm...


I'm hungry... =P

Ok... so here's some truly random updates.

1) My maid has been sent back due to her performance. =( Gosh, who's to cook instant noodles for me now... ?

2) Apart from an Altis, I'm also considering the Lancer. Not the lancer X though...

3) Attended to a case of dispute today that turned into a possible molest case, verbal abuse and causing grievous hurt and unfortunately I was the first officer at scene. Now I might have to go to court to testify... shucks... Why is it just me...

4) Handphone is starting to crash on me. Hmm... and I heard the iPhone is out in stores! -hmm!!!-

In a nutshell... I'm still over the hill with regards to my driving license. Guess I'm overly excited. Basically spent the entire day driving to showrooms on my dad's vehicle. Test drove a few cars. Hmm... I guess an automatic car definitely has its convenience but it can never beat a manual car especially when it comes to speed and acceleration.

Well, I guess I'll most probably be driving a "temp" car for about a year or so till I can improve my skills and be that little bit closer to perfection. Perhaps TOYOTA might be a good choice? I'm still contemplating....

But guess what... I swore I wouldn't have even stepped into a Geely Showroom if my parents haven't insisted. Well, prayers answered. Before 10mins, they were marching quietly out of it! Whiew!

Still contemplating... Perhaps... if there's even a slightest chance. I might be getting an Altis...

After weeks of anxiety... I'm happy to announced that...

I've finally PASSED AND ATTAINED my driving license!!!!

You could say that I'm happy, tired and exhausted at the same time. It was a hell of a week for me. Honestly, passing was seriously the last thing on my mind. I mean, who the heck could pass with less than 3 weeks of practical lessons? Haha! I bet I'm one of those few who've spent less than $900 to attain my license. Hectic...

*oh oh! Thanks to trs for your advise! I was practically turning my head here and there the whole time! Somehow felt that it was totally unnecessary though. Haha!

Wanna say a big thank you to muah lovely friends and of course my dear girl who've given me your wishes and kept me in prayers. I think I've owed a few of you lunches and dinners eh? haha! Will definately keep my end of the deal! =D

Well, now that I'm done with that. Its time to move on with my police license AND my very own car! Probably head down to roadshows for the next few days... slurps! I sure want an RX8 though... LOL! Wouldn't mind test driving it anyway!

2 more days... just 2 more days...

Driving is approximately in 8 days time. But hey! guess what? Today I just had my 1st circuit lesson. Just great. Now I'm not so sure how confident I personally am of myself. However, most of my friends, peers and EVEN my instructor says that I'll surely pass. "Yea right" I thought... Thanks to the him for not having been able to schedule all my appointments properly. Sigh.

All I can hope is for the best to happen. My instructor even placed a bet and said that if I'd fail, he'll even give me a treat! How confident eh? LOL! oh well...

On a more "worrying" note, The Girl has been working really hard on her studies. They say a picture paints a thousand words. Wait till you look at a face and you might just paint a million words. I saw hers and there she was, feeling stressed, worried, tensed, tired, mentally drained, etc.

Baby, I'm sure you'll do well for MRA and the others. Its something that you've done before and I'm sure you'll do well. =D Try not to tire yourself too much or else it'll only affect your input of information in you. Stay calm... I'll be helping and supporting you like I am now! =DD

Ok, gotta go search for the 5 dimensions of Servqual now, work work! Till my next entry, take good care folks. Weather ain't very ideal so drink loads of water!

Having nothing on my hands today, I decided to tag along with a the usual friends to catch "Live The Dream" live at Mediacorp. Since Victor Tang (The contestant) was Benny's cousin and he happened to have tons of tickets, I thought why not just drop by and have a few eye candies and look at celebrities up close! haha!

So I spend the afternoon over at Elle's place where I sorta slacked, watched tv, eat donuts, eat pastamania and help set up some bbq stuff for Chunhan's party. LOLL!

Then after we headed out as planned for Live The Dream! I thought this session was quite dumb. In a nutshell, it was supposed to be an elimination round tonight. However, after the high intensity and all... Utt told us that we've been had! All the votes that we've made will actually be snowballed onto the next round. Which means tonight's show, everyone remained in the contest! $%^&*( wasted my time... LOL!!!

But hey! It was certainly nice meeting Dick, Ken and Dawn live. Darn I sometimes wonder if there was any chance I could ever work with them in the future... =((


Yupp, thats me and Chunhan "enjoying ourselves" LOLL!!! in front of the TV!!!


Live The Dream!!! Apparently I was caught on TV.


I was here! =DD

Darn, my driving test is in exactly 2 weeks time and I've yet to have any circuit training whatsoever! I think my instructor sucks big time. He's always having reasons about his absence. And the weird thing is that he does it to everyone including friends whom I've introduced to him! Its really affecting himself and the people around him. Sigh... I just hope that things will change... FAST... =((

Fever has subsided! Actually it has subsided that night that I had the fever! =P But still a little weak. Thanks to everyone who called and messaged to give your wishes... =DD

Oh, stumbled unto this "Beautiful Girl" Remix. I think its quite unique, listen to it! so cool!!!

Was on MC yesterday so I practically stayed home alone the whole day and was randomly surfing around. I decided to pop by Xiaxue's as I heard she was kinda famous. But when I did... I was thinking famous?! She's being insulted here and there! And I also notice there was this thing between him and Steven Lim which I thought was absolutely hilarious! Haha! If you've got nothing on your hands then feel free to visit her site and you'll see the video that she was being bombarded with so many hard questions on some talk show. Its really funny...

I'm intending to go on a holiday with my friends at the end of this year while BB will be going to Japan with her family. Not sure what are the nice places around though. Does anyone have any suggestions??? Someplace that I can shop. eat and enjoy meself... savvy? LOLL!

I'm waiting for the new MacBook Pro (Leopard) to be released before I'm getting one together with Benny. For those who bought yours recently, you better have your own heart for dinner tonight. LOL! Apple OS have always had problems with regards to compatibility with Windows. With the launch of Leopard, one do not have to worry about it at all!!! WOOT! Even using msn on MacBook will not pose any limitations! Thats gonna add to the list of gadgets to the soon-to-be owner! Wohohoho!

For those who've been interested in getting an iPhone, a very very good friend of a friend who's over at NY is able to purchase it at a far more cheaper price than it'll be going if sold locally. No worries, its 100% trustworthy and reliable! For those who want to place your order. Do enquire the details from me. I've already got several orders. Oh, the iPhone will be in stores at all Apple stores in approx 6 months time at $1500. However, I'm getting it at $980 excluding shipment... No worries, it supports our local network. LOL! No I'm not some promoter or something. I just thought its pretty cool and lotsa people are asking around for it. So... there you have it! =DD
