Thank you Daryl, Shawn and Guoxi for the guitar. Hahaha. Guess the budget has been set.
Triathlon on saturday. Saying i'm undertrained is an understatement. Dun think i'll push myself too hard with all the deaths in Sports events recently.
Oh well..
Endure and Excel.
Happy Bday to Me. Turned 21 on Sat. But i'm only blogging now after i've collected my stories from everybody. Hahaha.
Ok here's wat i rmb. Went to play soccer with Xav at 2 since they were short of 1. Played for about 20 mins cos everybody was late and i had to leave at 3. Sam had planned to surprise me with some games at my hse at 3 so i had to be home. So anw, picked up Elaine and headed home to wait for them. As expected they were late. Kang, Von and Xueni arrived first. And so the addicts played their favourite game. Hahahha. I have improved. Wahahaha. Von u shld call me Shi Fu now. Here a testimonial from Von herself.
"Well, we turned up at 3pm and Elaine was already at KS house. We ended up playing MJ. Ks luck was damn good or maybe it was the seat. Hahaha. And my luck was damn bad. I lose like 100 plus. Can faint."As you all can see, she's a
sore loser. Kana block by me den say blame my luck and seat.
Hahahhahahah. Wanting came after awhile and she and Elaine were stoning ard. Den Sam, Alex, Chiewyee, Kah Hong and Andy came holding a giant banner. Hahaha. Thanks for the banner guys. Nice panda.
Ok so Wanting took over my seat at the mj table while i went to entertain the rest who jus came. Apparently Kang Kang gt scolded by Elaine. Shit i missed tt. I think i missed a lot that day. Hahahhaha. Von: "
And Elaine seems like a really nice person and she is quite funny. Kang was like scolding her and she slapped Kang's legs. HAHAHA. Orbi man Kang! Super funny! "Ok so the BBQ started and everybody started arriving. Was damn busy with i dunno wat. Was jus running everywhere. Luckily Kang Kang and the rest were bbqing. Guess u'll be busy when its ur party. Like how Wanting was running everywhere when it was her party.
Just before cutting cake i rmb Alison asking Carmen and Charmaine to go get everybody. I quote
Alison : "Go and call everybody hurry. You can scream." Hahahhahahha. Its so sad that they have to be given permission to scream cos i think they really love to scream. And i rmb Carmen hiding her smile when Xav finally said she was cuter than Charmaine after Chiewyee kept saying Charmaine was cuter. Hahahaha.
Fast Fwd:After sending Elaine, Eugene and ZP back home i went back to accept the challenge of the 2 cans of beers set up by the PTIs. I bet Jianling is the mastermind. And the beer Sam bought sucks. I think after drinking the brand of beer he recommended, its safe to say that our taste in everything - clothes, food, drinks etc. - differ totally. And i haven eaten much and after another 2 cups of baileys i was gone.
Now everything from here on is a blur. I was on the grass puking. Water being splashed over me. Alex and Gang were up at my hse before all this happened to prepare waterbombs. And when the PTIs had carried me back to my void deck after some time of puking, they were ambushed and waterbombs were flung everywhere. I don't rmb any water bombs.
"U fell down a lot of times." Probably explains the unknown pains on my back
"U were rolling and crawling ard on the grass." What was i doing??? Leopard crawl ah. Why my elbow gt scratches.
"Xav was in the shower with you helping u bathe." And finally something i don't wan to rmb, but i find tt there's an image of xav naked in my head. AHhHHH!!! Thankfully its blurry.
After bathing i rmb playing board games with Alex and gang. Think i took over for Chiewyee when she went to bathe. Guess that pretty much ended the board game for them. Hahaha.. I was randomly flying ppl who weren't even in the deal. And tt was the end of the nite for me........
Woke up early next morn, stomach sore from the alcohol. Found Xav slping on the balcony. Melvin, Jian Xue and Xav left after breakfast but Alex Sam and Kah Hong stayed on for awhile telling me horror stories of the nite b4.

Not forgetting my favourite cousins Alison and Chow and their cute daughters Carmen and Charmaine for the cake and entertaining my frens. I think kids at a party break the ice.
And of cos my parents and sis who din make a big fuss abt the state of the house when it was all over. 我要谢谢我的爸爸, 妈妈, 妹妹. 没有他们我就不会有今天.
Ps: If i've forgotten u, it means u forgot to give me a present. Hahahah. Ok jus kidding. Do tell me so i can add ur name.
Whoever said like father like son obviously didn't noe wat he was talking abt man. I'm turning into my mum, cleaning for fun. I'm a cleanliness freak. Ahh.. She raised me well. My mum would be proud. Started out as an attempt to clear the drumset into somewhere out of sight. So after looong minutes of sitting on the chair and forming mind maps in my head, I had a plan. And it resulted in a massive effort of spring cleaning.
Started with the top 2 cabinets. I haven touched them for as long as i remembered and i tot since i was packing everything, i might as well do a good job. And so i took out everything(Seriously everything. Even unscrewed the cabinet doors) so that i could wipe them clean. Den i did so for the rest of the shelves and cabinets.
Self Discovery: I'm a perfectionist.
And after 2 intensive weeks of mum-like cleaning and throwing out stuff, I've finally managed to moved my drumset in 1 of the cabinets. Next would be wat to do with the empty space there. I was thinking beanbag. Or maybe get some nice cushions and a rug. So i can put them away when not in use. Storage for beanbag is a problem. Another one would be a tall coffee table. Think it would sit well at the foot of my bed. Sitting there looking out of the window would be quite nice.
Daryl had some nice ideas though. Place a nice guitar there. Looks good even if i don't play. Btw, cheer up dude. U're doing great. Better than i was anyway.
Anw some photos from Tioman.
At Mersing Ferry Terminal
Sam - Obviously very very pleased with something
Everybody
Yep. Believe it. We caught a mermaid. She bit Jian Xue's finger.
Thought it was time for a change. Chanced upon this layout awhile ago and immediatly felt i needed to have it. Still messing around with html though, so its still a work in progress.
Anybody keen on a surfing holiday? It says aspiring surfer on the right now. Hope to change it to surfer dude soon.
Was talking to Don today:[D][O][N]- Good Morning, This is Captain speaking, Welcome aboard to A380 Singapore Airline flying to Japan, Tokyo. :) says:
wow.. u damn sporty la.. every activity u do is relating to sportsI like that i'm sporty. Be it ball games or lifestyle sports, there's jus something that sooths your mind after working out the whole day.
Your aching muscles cry out gently everytime you move.
A peculiar feeling of tiredness which puts a smile on your face.
Approaching your door, you're glad you're finally home.
Walking towards your bed, you drop your baggage on the floor.
And finally curling up in your bed knowing you'll have a good night's sleep.
And that's my life for u.
Back from Tioman. Diving was awesome man. Was still feeling sian on Friday night while heading down to Lavender to meet up. Maybe cos I was shagged from the previous few days. Boarded a mini bus after dinner. Was hoping for Grassland Fast Car, but no such luck.
Reached Johor at abt 9 plus where we stopped at Shell for a break. Was comtemplating whether to buy anything tt we didnt need jus cos its cheap. Hahahah.. Hit the roads again. We were headed towards Mersing to spend the nite before taking the ferry over to Tioman the next day. The road there looked jus like those in Initial D. Dark with only 1 lane. The mini bus we were in looked like the one Itsuki/Ah Mu drove to race with Sean Yue. Our driver was recklessly good though. Reached Mersing in about 2 hrs. The hungry us went looking for some food after unpacking. As usual Sam was commenting about the food. Hahaha.. But the food at the roadsides stalls were quite good.
Anw on to the main event. Woooo.. Saturday morn. Boarded the ferry after breakfast. Had to stay at the harbour for quite some time becos it was low tide and the ferry couldnt get out. Entertained ourselves by arguing about nonsense and telling lame jokes and questions. My favourite was "A guy dancing Hip Hop on a tree. Guess a Chinese Character." Tag the answer to win a prize.
Finally reached Paya Beach Resort. According to SY, its the more peaceful side of the island. The other side called Selang is where the crowd is. We were alrd behind schedule cos of the low tide so we put our things down and went for our first open water dive. Shiok. Doing everything on the boat was really different. Enjoying the cool wind blowing in ur face. Awesome man. Self Discovery: I get seasick. Crap. And i puked some yellow stuff out. Ate the seasick pill after lunch though. Miracle pill. And i was able to enjoy the boat ride again. Thank God for Pharmacists.
The water at our first dive side was awesome man. Clear. We had to do our skills test for our first dive and while kneeling down a fish actually came quite close to look at me in the face probably thinking if it could nibble on this huge creature and not get eaten. Then it swam away when i tried to grab it.
Our 2nd dive was the best though. Saw a turtle digging thru the corals with his head. Looked damn cute with his head going in and out. We have all decided that divers need sticks to disturb the fishes. I'm gonna get a damn long pointer to poke the fishes next time. SY managed to get a few clown fishes to swim in circles when he twirled his rod (Don't think dirty) around them.
Fantastic wkend. Shall upload the photos soon. Diving again soon guys.
Cool. Got my pair of Oakley half jackey with ruby red lenses. I should probably go back and get the juliet too.
Alright man!! First wkend of May just ended. As I promised myself, the fun begins!!!!
Went to cover for Daryl in the morning yesterday at the International Furniture Centre. Can't believe they're paying him 7 per hr to count the number of people walking in through the entrance. I sat there for an hour listening to music, reading my PADI dive manual and only 30 people came through. Amazingly, this job pays better than ALL the 5 day week jobs offered to me by Recruit Express. They take way too much commision man.
Anw went to look around the Centre for furniture to revamp my room. Din get any inspiration though. Shall clear my room b4 deciding what to put in the empty spaces. Went for Bak Chou Mee during Daryl's lunchtime. The guy cooking was cooking in the same exact style the Yio Chu Kang guy cooks. YES. There is a style. Their faces makes this constipated look and he holds ladle like he's a surgeon cutting open someone's chest. They even have a porcelin bowl to put the ladle which makes the same noise when they drop the ladle. Think they studied under the same Shaolin Master Chef cos their noodle is awesome. The Yio Chu Kang one is still better though.
Swimming lessons after tt. I'm spending so much time in the water i feel like a fish. Going to dive next week, in the water again. Triathlon the week after, in the water again. But i gt my tan and 6 pac back. Yes back. I had it b4. More than once. Wahahaha. Be jealous i just don't get fat. All ready to be a beach boy now.
Wanting's BBQ after that. Had fun disturbing her baby sister. Hahahah. Kids are fun. U keep disturbing them and they cant find anything to argue back. Only a few of us were there. The rest were either having exams, concerts or jus left in the dark. Wanting has a lot of pretty frens. I should talk to her more and invite all of them to my BBQ since at this moment its 80% guys, and 90% of the gals will be playing mj upstairs thinking they're princesses and waiting for the man-servant( I think it'll most likely be Kang Kang) to bring the food up.
Left for Sam's hse after that. Nice place. Peaceful facing the park. Shiok sofa. Think i'll consider buying 1 in future. Hahah.. Ok Sam. If u get access to internet and happen to read this in Bangkok, remember to buy my alcohol.
