a simple life...
had my first taste of Subway on tuesday with yt..(yeah, i'm most likely to last few rare pple not to have tried it) it tastes GREEAAT!! i can't believe that i'm having a great time eating a whole large chunk of vegetables... the daily set of the day was tuna(combined with oregano bread), and there must have been more than 10 kinds of veggies in there.. with tomatoes, cabbage, olive, and many more which i can't remember, but i do remember that, for the first time in my life, i crave for veggies... the first bite makes me crave for the 2nd bite, and the 3rd bite makes me even hungrier for the 4th bite...as i finished the 6-inches oregano bread and the macademia cookies, my full stomach was the only thing that got in the way of me going for the 2nd set....it's like an addiction...even my tongue is shouting for it now as i was typing...
anyway probably later today i would have it again....oo!! can't wait!!
the exercise with yt was incredible...we did weights training first and then swimming + suntanning and i ended up having terrible muscle-ache for 3 days straight!! can't straighten my arms at all....managed to do so today... seriously, i need to do this more often, i think i'm beginning to like the kicks of this! haha...
managed to string a meeting between my 2 batch of poly classmates... was glad that they somehow knew each other and that they dun have any grudges! haa....the first impression was gd though and they seemed to be able to click.....in any way, i'm glad that things turn out well....
was pretty badly ran down due to the fact that i'm not as financially-strapped.. but hey, i dun need to prove anything about myself to anyone, i know i'm screwed up and has to live off my mum and dad, totally dependent on their money for my studies, but does it mean i should be like the others and start proving myself that i can earn my own keep? hell no... i dun need to do that yet! i dun need to show pple i can do that... becos I KNOW i can do that!!!
my family may not be one that has to worry about daily meals, but we have equal problems to every other families in the world... maybe even more... and sometimes, i can't help but envy those average families....cos at least they do not live under the coloured eyes of those who envy the well-to-dos.... nor do they have the luxury to go thru inheritance lawsuits that causes family break-ups... heck...they can never understand, what it feels like when u see ur family break-up becos "oh, ur uncle demands to have more from the inheritance", "oh, ur aunt thinks she deserves more money becos she's older..." things like that....
anyway, i'm kinda pissed at pple who thinks that, " oh, his dad has more than enough money for him to live off, thus he doesn't understand how badly cash-strapped we are..."
All men and women, regardless of how wealthy or poor they may be, will nonetheless face the same problems, be it family, monetary, friends or work-related. The only difference lies in the form and intensity of the problems in which it surfaces, at a given place and time, due to the fact that, we are afterall, just humans...
something worth pondering over... for those who care...
a whole wk of happiness/frustration/excitement..
just caught the Spiderman-3 Trailer...it was simply mouth-watering!! can't wait to part with my money to catch the show, a pity though that it will premiere on 4th May 2007... i won't be able to catch it in singapore... perhaps it's a good chance for me to ask a girl out if i should meet one in my uni...haha...
met up with nicole, chris, esther and her cousin at Pitstop last sat at a board game shop that's just like The Settlers which i used to go to with loh wei and basu... maybe i am not fated to play the games there becos both times i went there,(first is to meet up with tailin and co. after Lee Hom's concert) i was only there to say hi, had a feel of the chair for 5 mins before they packed up everything and decide to take a photo to end the session... so i told myself that there mustn't be a THIRD time..... haiz... anyway after that, esther and her cousin headed for home and the 3 of us went to have supper at a nearby stall...(actually, it was just the 2 of them eating)
we continued to chill out at TCC and our topics went from back-in-poly days to bras and fashion... no idea why... they are the only ones whom i can really unlock myself and talk to... so easily... just like they can open their hearts and talk to me about those issues which they wouldn't talk about with others.... perhaps it's the triangle trust that we have learnt to build and share ever since we started knowing each other.... however there's just this 1 qns which i can never find the courage to answer them... perhaps one day i would, and we'll see about that...
mum and dad has been bickering for the whole wk... got so affected that i have stopped trying to be the nice middle-man... hope they find the arguments irritating and decide to stop by themselves.... cos i realised the more i try to help, the more reason they have to bring the arguments to the next level... decided, " heck! i quit..." and i leave it all to them to kiss and make up...
got my favourite phone, Sonyericsson W810i...was so ECSTATIC!! got it for merely 88 bucks with the help of a renewed contract and two 100 bucks vouchers... the more i see the phone, the more i'm proud of myself for making the wise choice.... the phone is a perfect replacement for my nokia n-gage...i used to think that it's impossible to find another phone as useful and nearly-perfect like the n-gage, but this phone is EVEN BETTER... just can't find any part of the phone which i'm unhappy about...
the lifeguards at the swimming pool of the tampines safra probably knows me pretty well as the dude who goes there every day for a swim and a tan ever since i started living the life of a civilian again... every mon - fri afternoon, i would be there if it doesn't rain... hoping that i would be able to shed some kilos here to make up for the inactive lifestyle which i predict i would be living in australia... so far so good, looks abit tanner now but still far from how i want myself to be....
might be meeting up with junqiang, tyt and co. this sat afternoon for a sentosa beach outing... have to go IDP in the morning to do my visa stuffs, might have a chance to see weiping and nicole there.... meeting my ex-BMT section mates in the evening at Dbl O... to catch up abit on old times before we start to embark on our own careers.... seems like a very very hectic sat i've got this wkend.... hope i'll be alright when i meet up with liang ting and co. on sunday for kuan thai's birthday celebration...ARGH....horribly busy wkend i'm gonna get..... hope i dun fall sick by the end of all these meetings and partyings....haha...
haiz...shagged...
just came back after watching The Covenant with my tyt,wj and jq.... the show is pretty nice with the special effects and gorgeous stars... and has a good story too.. just hope that there's a sequel to this...
a good thing that tyt drove, managed to get me back home by 12am..hee~ some curfew i promised my mum.... decided that i should behave myself and stop hanging out till so late... made her worried all the time.. so NO MORE nightlife till i leave for Surfer's Paradise....yeah man~ CAN'T WAIT!!!
My dear gunners are really playing badly this wk... having drew their match with lowly everton in EPL and CSKA Moscow in Europe....very depressing results.... i could understand the match with everton...they came to get a point and they got it....as for CSKA Moscow, the gunners really shot themselves in their foot....probably it's the match with everton which has seriously gave them a blow in their confidence to score.... i had to say i was pretty furious throughout the match when they fail to score chance after chance...with each opportunity getting closer and closer to the goal...almost had a breakdown when rosicky failed to score with just 1 metre away from the goalline(he passed back to the keeper)...
the whole of thursday became a dread to me... the game really spoilt all my mood.. i was sleeping in my dad's car in the morning while he went to buy some fried doughstick when a car honked at me(he wanted to leave his parking lot and my dad's car just happens to block him)... i woke up with a really nasty look and if i hadn't had that tiny winy bit of humanity left in me, i would have smashed his side window together with his head... yeah, that's how bad i feel when i have a bad mood and my sleep is seriously disrupted... he could have knocked on the window to wake me up so that i could shift the car, but he chose to honked...i must say he's really LUCKY that day...
anyway, it really took me a long while to tok about the champions league match....if i had blogged immediately after that, i would have said alot of bad and nasty words about my favourite gunners...which i would regret...afterall they're creating chances, which is considered a better thing than not having enough skills and ideas to create chances...they just need to work more on their finishing and i bet that they can go to the top of the group very soon if they continue to create this big load of scoring opportunities...
had a little chat with chinghui.. she seems really enthusiastic in getting me to go for lessons and stuffs.. i understand her efforts but unfortunately those lessons are just not my cup of tea... i'm a pretty stubborn guy and unless i had to, i would not do the things i have no interests to do...in this case, attending the lessons... the makeup sessions sounds fun but unfortunately, i often get this heavy expectation to join her MLM company when i'm with her cliques... they're really nice pple whom i enjoy going out with(esp the genting trip) but i just dun see myself joining their line.... anyway, without any prejudice towards MLM, i hope she really do well in what she's doing, but for now, i dun see myself joining this line...i'm still very optimistic about being able to find the job i like and i just hope that the next time she asks me out, it's purely a date with movies and stuffs and nothing about her company...
headache... its 1 am now...time to crash.....
