BACK!

Wow! been ages since i logged into my blog, i forgotten i had 1 till i saw my link on my friend's blog. Life is all well and happy! The sad news is i was told by my cousins and friends i became somewhat FAT! I guess the intensity in the gym has to increase by 50%! Recently bought the much debated IPhone, hearing 50/50s on how good or bad the phone is. But after getting 1 and modifying it, i find the phone not bad and its quite slick, it also saves my $ on my sms bills because i now sms lesser due to the difficulty in smsing on the IPhone! Imported a nice gold reflective casing over the internet which cost me $55! It looks very cool but have to take good care of the casing from any prominent scratches or fingerprints! It's all worth it =)

Next Trip Shall Be......

BACK! Happy 2009!

Welcome 2009!!!

It has been sooo long since my last post! Sorted things out and i'm feeling better then ever!.. Had an extremely wonderful christmas holiday at Taiwan with my brothers and we sure enjoyed life over there! There are over 7gb of photos and videos which i could not upload all..so i chose some beautifully crappy shots to be uploaded! Other then Christmas holidays i had a great time celebrating the countdown to 2009 at St James too with my buddies. Although the economy is predicted to be worst but i just hope and pray that everybody will have a great life ahead and health and safety for you and your family and loved ones is whats most important in life!
God Bless!

Zongwei was not joking when he said he was afraid of plane rides! He held on to the chair and almost ripped the whole arm rest out!

Trying To Be Artistic

We came and conquered!


We had no idea we were dining at a district of gay bar dining cafes until we looked around us! Zongwei didn't dare to go to the toilet alone!

Another nice shot before heading to Club Lava

Hurt So Bad

哭了才发现自己真的受伤了
你曾对我说你永远是我的
为了爱情我把自己的幸福都忘了
你快乐我就快乐

也许是我们彼此都太年轻了
总是特别容易沉溺在爱情里
每当我再次看到身边美丽的花火
你也离开我我还是想对你说

baby i love you so much
你走了我的心在淌血
baby you hurt me so bad
想要你回到我的世界
baby i love you so much
你给我的诺言已经瓦解
baby you hurt me so bad
只要我们都爱着无论多苦都值得
说好的你怎么忘记了

Mahjong!!

Classic photo of me with my cousin, sister and brother in law playin mahjong during CNY 2008. I was forced to put on a smile because i realised red was not my colour! I lost almost all my cash to them and when we finished playing the game i finished the entire bottle of Bailey's Chocolate Peppermint all by myself because i was too stressed playing with them!

My first leg injury after 11 years of playing basketball

On Tuesday i had a game of basketball which almost ruined my entire sporting life! While i did a jump shot, i landed on my friend's leg and he moved away causing me to land very awkwadly on the side of my left foot and i felt a very big CrrAaAAccCk! and the next moment i knew i was down on the floor in acute agony and i just clenched my ankle with both hands to try to get over the pain but the pain just kept getting worst and i had to be carried out of the court to rest at the sides.

After that i needed 2 friends to literally lift me home and on the way i had to lie down to rest every few steps because i could feel the blood keep flowing to my ankle which was killing me. The next morning i woke up my leg was so swollen and every single move i made was in pain, i went to the doctor and he said i severly injured my ankle's soft muscle tissues and i almost fractured my ankle bone. I had to be on clutches to avoid any further pressure on my left leg which i didn't use when going out because it was so inconvenient.

But i kinda regretted not using the clutches, yesterday i still went to my friend's pub and i walked quite alot. Today when i took out the bandages, i saw my veins were darken and there were dark blue and black and reddish bruises on both sides of my left feet. The doctor said that because of too much pressure keep applying to my left ankle that resulted in blood clotting around the injured muscle tissue area.

The doctor said that i have to be out of any sports for at least a month or two to at least let it heal if not i might make the injury worst and it will affect my sports next time. I guess gym is still alright!

Lost My Direction In Life Till Now

1 month ago i stopped something which was my "LIFE", i had quit going to the gym to train and threw away all my gym equipments and cancelled my country club gym membership. I know it was quite shocking, due to some set backs and problems in relationship. I took this 1 whole month to do some soul searching and find what i really want in life which had came to a dead end till now. My close friends have been encouraging me to go back to the gym and train and not waste all my effort in what i have done to change myself to what i really want in the past 3 to 4 years. I havebeen going to my friend's pub almost 4 times a day every week and just kept drinking boozes and liquors throughout the night and i find that i have lost my direction in life.

After nights of praying and soul searching, suddenly there was voice in my mind telling me to do what i really wanna achieve the most and came along a direction pathed out for me to follow. I decided to stop my night life and try to cut down on the drinking totally and go back to train in the gym harder then before. It's going to be a slow painful process because of all the weight and size i have lost since i stopped gym.. i lost around 9kg and totally shrink in size which was obvious to everyone because i have extremely high metabolism and i ate just 2 meals a day since last month instead of the 5-6 meals a day in the past, the clothes i used to wear are also quite big for me now. I shall take this as a challenge and still stick to my challenge with Zengye and come December i'll prove that i can be bigger and fitter.

Long Long Time~

It's been such a LoOOoOoooooooooOOoooOoOOOOooOOong time i last blogged.. well 2 weeks ago i went for my non-ict Ippt at Toa Payoh Safra.. I was the youngest over there and all of them were like in their mid 30s taking the same Ippt with me.. while attempting the last station only 3 guys were allowed to take the 2.4 threadmill run because the rest had already failed in other stations so there was no point in taking the last station. While running, the guy beside me suddenly fell off the threadmill with a loud thud to the ground and he was clenching his heart area and his face was totally pale white.. they say he suffered a heart attack while running and was immediately evacuated to the hospital. I do not know how is the guy but i do hope that he is well and running once again.

The following week was my "Finally" driving test, i was suppose to have the driving test last year but i keep delaying the lessons and test because i was kinda lazy and had no motivation. After my father decided to get a new car and also motivated me because he kinda gave up trying to tell me to go for my lessons. I was lucky to have gotten a good tester and he was on the phone while i was attempting the circuit test, after doing just a few courses in the circuit like the parallel parking and vertical parking he just called me to go on the road for the ending test.. my test route was suppose to be quite a tough and long journey but he just told me to make a U turn and lane change back to the driving center to collect my license.. i was so delighted when i heard the words "go back and collect your license!" He said he had no points to deduct on my driving but just put i had incorrect braking technique and just gave me 2 points deduction lol.

My father decided to get the new Honda Jazz 2008 which will only be in Singapore end of this year. I'm now in the process in choosing the colour and the interior colour combination.

I kinda like this colour for the honda jazz i saw on the net and its also the same thing my father is going to install with the large sun roof over the car. I'm thinking of either red or yellow for the car.

Live For Your Dreams!

Ain't 1 of those animations that is all funny and pointless, love the meaning behind this sad animation. Dreams do come true if you believe in yourself and work hard towards your dream and you will die a happy person with no regrets! I also love the lyrics to this song, it's by Gary Jules "Mad World" It was original sang by Tears For Fears, the lyrics is kinda "Suicidal" but hence a great song!

All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow

And I find it kinda funny
I find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very mad world mad world

Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday
Made to feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew me
Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson
Look right through me, look right through me

And I find it kinda funnyI find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very mad world ... world
Enlarge your world
Mad world

If only life was this slow

I was on my way to the gym and i saw this cute little cat sleeping and baking under the hot sun and using it's paw to shade away the direct sunlight shining at it's face! After taking a snapshot, the cat came over and lay down beside me on my shadow to continue to sleep. So i carried it to a nearby tree and let it sleep under the shade before i went off to the gym. Such an adorable lazy cat! A certified Garfield~

Lonely Dark Angel

Slept for only 3 hours since the previous day because my buddies came over to my house and we played mahjong from around 10pm till 7am since my family is away on holiday over the weekend. Slept at 10am and woke up at 1pm to head to the gym, after more then a month of absence to the gym because of exams, i wanted to go back last week but i was hit with a terrible case of acute food poisoning and high fever, i had to be taken to the clinic for 2 injectoons and 3 days of bed rest till i could finally have the strength to get out of my room. I lost like around 7kg because of this virus! when i looked into the mirror and saw i had gone all skinny and small sized i was soOooooO demoralized! I went to the gym today but only could sustain 30 minutes in the gym and i was out of energy so i headed home for more rest. Didn't wanna go out today and just laze at home, got kinda bored so i decided to do some simple painting on my wall to fill the boredom of a normal boring Sunday afternoon. Gonna repaint the wall soon next month, thinking of a new picture to paint and it shall be permanent!

Beat Boxing Doggy!

My favourite video clip for now! Damn its so cute~

Basketball Shorts Part 1

I finally took out some of my basketball shorts and arrange them properly in my cupboard! And this is like 1/3 of the amount of basketball shorts i have.. the rest are still somewhere in my cupboard which i have to dig out after my exams... Lol... I used to go to queensway shopping center during my secondary school days to buy a pair once every week or two... i realised i had spent more then $2500 on basketball shorts! Had i realised that 10 years ago i would had been a rich guy right now! haha.. My mom used to say to me: "You only have 1 body... What for do you need 40 over basketball shorts! You can supply 4 basketball teams with basketball shorts!" I guess she gave up saying that to me after a few years.

Basketball shorts used to be quite expensive at a minimum of $50 a pair and i had to save like crazy to buy 1.. Well those were the teenage years where kids love to do crazy stuff that makes them happy =)
The pair that i literally had to starve myself during my poly year 1 to save enough cash to buy is the Adidas limited edition shorts which cost me around $100... If only i saved all the $... I would be able to set up a chicken farm by now! Lol

Tired Tired Tired

Past few days have been in a very tired mood, even when Zongwei called me to go to the gym i could fall asleep and forgo GYM! He said he was quite stunned that i would usually forgo anything and head to the gym, but this time i just didn't go and even sleep over it. Yesterday headed to a posh bar at China town with him and a few other friends, had a great time chilling out and playing stupid games that were aimed at making me drink! Because i didn't know most of them and Zongwei suggested playing a game called Ice Breaker and the 1st person has to say his name, and the 2nd person has to say his own name followed by the previous person's name, and the 3rd person will carry on the same, there were like 15-17 of us and they purposely made me the last person so i had to memorize all of their names in 1 go! and the girls all looked quite alike and they all purposely said their names very fast! I eventually got all correct on the 1st go with a little help lol.. what a lame game!

I guess it's time to change my handphone! Ever since i took a picture of this creepy cat that i had never seen before at my void deck that keeps staring at me and when it sees me it will come to me and just lie down next to me. When my phone is at the normal standby locked mode, it would automatically unlock by itself and go into the main menu and navigate to my gallery section and open the cat photo and zoom in by itself. Lol, it happened a few times also when i was in Zongwei's vehicle on the way home after sending his friend home. I just stared at the phone while it navigates by itself to the photo again and again.. I tried restarting my phone and even update the version but it still keeps going into the picture by itself! I got so fed up and thought since it keeps going into that cat photo i shall just delete that photo! When i deleted the photo my handphone didn't seem to have any problems anymore~ Guess my handphone still has lots of bugs in it! A great excuse to buy a new phone! Come to think about it, it was kinda creepy Lol

Shermayne

My poor adorable baby niece, Shermayne! Her right eye was swollen and she told my cousin to take a picture of her to send to me to let us see what happened to her.. Apparently the teacher in school wrote to my cousin that a boy knocked into her and caused it to swell, but when my cousin brought her to the doctor, he said that it was caused by an insect bite. Oh well.. I just hope that she recovers fast =) Called my cousin and Shermayne picked up instead and said that she is OK~ even before i asked anything... Her cuteness is too much to handle =)

Moving On

最後的風度......

Nothing Cheers Me Up Better Than GOOD FOOD!!!

My All Time favourite drink from Star bucks! Ice Green Tea frappuccino~ I got addicted to this drink on the first day of my Shanghai trip where i decided to try something new and i had been drinking it everyday for my holiday in Shanghai!


After a day at Sentosa and after playing a few rounds of mahjong at my poly classmate's house i got so hungry that before i went home i decided to go to the coffeeshop and order $10 worth of this "Yue Guang He" .. It's actually dry Hor Fun with a raw egg over the top and just mix the raw egg with the Hor Fun while it is hot! Yummy~ The person serving asked if i wanted how many pairs of chopsticks for this big portion and when i said 1 pair..she went "HUR!!!!" so loudly that people nearby turned over... lol... My friend got addicted after i introduced this dish to her during chinese new year at 1 of the coffee shops at Boat Quay... Could not believe she was missing this out for so many years~ tsk tsk





After my buddy Zong Wei helped out my sister in lending us his father's lorry to transport her piano over to her house, both of us went to Newton Circus to eat supper. We initially wanted to head to Adam foodcourt but it was under renovation, so we detoured back to Newton Circus and had a fantastic supper, we ordered 400g of cereal prawn, chilli kang kong and also their famous sweet sour chicken. This was the first time i tried sweet sour chicken because usually elsewhere there is only sweet sour pork and i must say it taste much nicer. Both of us had difficulties finishing up all the food but sure enjoyed it.

Serious Thoughts

Never complain that your life is miserable till you have seen this infamous disturbing photograph taken by Kevin Carter who killed himself after this photograph won him the Pulitzer Prize award. He could not get over the disturbing images he witnessed with his very own eyes and blamed himself that he did not help that poor Sudanese girl who was trying with her life to crawl to a feeding center just 1km away and being prayed on by a vulture waiting to eat her carcass. He was told not to help any of them because of the disease that they carry with them, but he regretted with his life for listening. People criticized him for not helping the girl and it hit him so hard that took his own life with guilt in 1994, just months after taking the photograph that showed the world the shocking truth. He was just trying to show to the world the humanitarian crisis that was (and is) engulfing Sudan.

I Lost The Mood To Study For My Test...Rest In Peace

Rommel


a familiar name throughout all the dog handlers and trainers in the army. Possibly the best dog with the best attitude, a great demo dog for exhibitions at big occassions for VIPs. When i first stepped into the K9 family i was told that Rommel was the best dog we had and when i went to play with him i instantly knew why.. He would always use his muzzle to nudge your hand to let you know he wants to be pet and when you start petting him his tail will just wag happily and he will just stare at you with his big bright eyes in happiness.


Apart from all the kind loving feeling he gives you, he also know when is play time and when is training time. He will be very serious at trainings and show levels of aggresiveness a guard dog should have. I took him on duties on some occassions and was extremely impress with him not slacking a single bit when doing my rounds and responded to even the slightest sound or movement and every command i gave with great enthusiasm. Everybody in our K9 family treated Rommel as our good "friend" because he did now show favouritism to anybody but to all. Just heard from my friends that Rommel just passed away due to bloated stomach on the way to Mount Pleasant to save him. It was not a death he should had gone through. Bloated stomach is one of the worst death for a dog and they should not have to go through it..

Rest In Peace Rommel

Dreams

In the past i used to dream big and fight with great passion and motivation for my dreams to come true ... Why is it not happening anymore? Where has it gone to...
