Alright I'm back. Haha. First thing's first. I've just started learning to drive. Had my first lesson in the evening. Haha. It was great. I'm taking the slacker route by taking automatic transmission. Haha. I'm not going to even think of learning manual coz it's a total waste of time. Haha. And in Singapore, I don't think you can find any cars with only manual transmission, other then the few sports cars around that I would never buy (or maybe never ever afford one.. They are ridiculously expensive!) Anyways drove from bedok to tampines on my first lesson! Kewl. I guess driving my ULTRA really helps. Haha. =D Looking forward to more driving lessons. Wee~

Anyway just signed up for the Standard Chartered Marathon in december. 42.125km is no joke. But I guess it just takes training to be able to clock that distance. Have been running quite abit late, preparing for army half marathon in like 2 weeks. Just did my best 15km run at PLC on friday with a time of 1h13min. Haha. I can do it. Haha. Alright I'm still an amateur in running, but I will still try my best. Haha. The satisfaction gained from running is just great. Oh and I retarded-ly went to sun-tann in camp, and because of that my poor skin is beginning to peel now. Lol. All the COC and AOH rehersals under the scorching sun has gave my an "excellent" smart 4 tann.. and its's.. ok nvm. Haha.

The thought of going for an overseas education is tempting me again. I haven't given up my place at Imperial yet.. and now I'm thinking of applying to Cambridge. Yes I've to think about school fees again. The costs really differs by quite a bit. Studying in Singapore would set me back by around S$32,000 for my course. I probably would get 2 degrees in 5 years. In the UK, it would cost me S$25,000... a YEAR! So thats S$100,000 in school fees in 4 years. But then again, I would get a direct masters of engineering. Hmm.. very tempting right. No until I add in the cost of living. Haha. The total adds up to ard S$150,000. Yes thats the price of a Mercedes C Class! Terrible. Haiz. Dilemma again. But if I can even get into Cambridge, I will really consider it man. Really tempting. Lets just wait and see bahz.

It's August already! Yay! Lol.. random=D
