The best damn song I've heard in a long time. Haha. 刘力扬 is really good man. Enjoy! 7 days to Ex. Wallaby!

Yesterday went to meet up with john n vincent for dinner. Betsy and Nerd supposed to meet up too, but too bad last minute can't make it. lol. Anyway I was somewhat on a binge yesterday. The thought of eating combat ration for the next 4 days just makes mt stomach rumble even more. lol. ATEC's this coming week and i guess its gonna be one hell of an outfield. Haha. Alright enough of army. Anyways I went to eat at Aji-Tei at PS (not me). The food there's damn good man. Haha. Ended up eating like a paper steamboat, curry rice, hotplate potato.. and macha icecream. LOL. Its only after i ordered that i realised that i ordered a tad too much. Haha. But who cares. I ate them all anyways. Haha. After that just went to walk around PS. Bought a book entitled " The Last Lecture" by Prof Randy Pausch. He's a lecturer from Carnagie Mellon University in Pittsburgh. He was suffering from the terminal stage of pancreatic cancer and was asked to give his last lecture at the university. Most people would expect someone dying to give his last lecture on issues such as how he cope with the disease etc. But no. That wasn't what he lectured about. It was about living childhood dreams. Talking about his life experiences. Very moivational book. And the very fact that it was his last words yet it sounded so optimistic with the burning passion to live life to the very last minute, flooded me with emotions beyond description. It was also about work-life balance and the sacrifices one have to make in life. These are things that form the very basis of living a happy life. And the best thing is that I've only read the first 3 chapters. It's that good. Makes me wanna read one as soom as i can man.

It made me realise that some things in life are definitely worth treasuring. Simple things such as friendships, relationships, kinship. And yes, there are many things in life that is fated. Superstitious or Real. I choose to believe. And hence, I believe that some things that are not meant to be will never be. Everything happens for a reason and I would want to believe that everything good that happens is to be treasured, while anything bad that happens is a step essential for future happiness. The unpredictability of life, the excitement of life, the passion for life. Aren't they all the same?

Anyways later probably gonna send Karl off to Australia. Guess he's going there to be a pilot. Congrats dude and wish ya the best! Jia you!

Lol. I, too, is going Australia in 2 weeks time for training. Should be on the 5th. Haha. It's gonna be a very busy 2 weeks ahead b4 Australia. so I guess this blog would probably be left empty till like 6 weeks time. So till then.. chow!

Alright I've changed my blogskin back to this simplistic one. Yes everything has been changed, except it being orange. Haha. Changes. They are part and parcel of everyday life. Nothing remains the same over time. But looking on the bright side, changes tend to be for the better. Or maybe that my sole opinion. I wonder.

Anyways, last week went to meet up with Xuan Ping and quite a few of the MSU guys. Yea he's got back his pink IC and is going to Beijing University to study econs on a PSC scholarship. So cool right. Haha. Anyways, we met up at Dhoby Ghaut and had lunch at Ajisen Ramen. Haha. Nice to be with the guys away from army. There's so much segregation and politics in camp. Such peace is hard to come by and yea, I treasure it. Haha. After that went to play pool and arcade. Supposed to play lan after that, but I went off earlier to meet up with John and Betsy. Oh wish Xuan Ping all the best in his studies! Oh and he will ORD in like 6 years! Wahahaha. I'm such a bitch. LOL.

Haha. Watched Make it Happen with them at Cine. Hahaz. Quite nice show except that its very short. LOL. After that went to makan Pepper Lunch with them plus Vincent. Haha. Very nice to meet up with my besties for a meal. Really miss those JC days! Oh yah, after that went to shop for Vin's bro's present. Supposed to attend his wedding the next day. Shop for quite a long time, not knowing what to buy, I finally decided to share a nice box of chocs with john. Haha.

Now here comes the twist. After I went home mum told me that my great grandma's death anniversary was the next day! And that all my relatives would be coming over for breakfast and lunch! And i HAD to be there coz my great grandma used to 疼 me the most. Haha. So once again, I had to pang seh john and gang. Didn't go for the wedding. So sorry dude! I sooo owe u a meal! Haha. Sorry to Vin too. Initially agreed to turn up but didn't go last minute. Paiseh yea. I feel damn bad.

Anyways this week's a long weekend. Because Friday's a forced company block leave. So yea. Woke up pretty early to follow my Bro to deliver his mooncakes. Yes he drove, if not i would never have followed him. LOL. His Hall stuff is like squeezing every ounce of energy out of him man. So much crap to do, how to concentrate on studying? Haha. After that went to send my coveralls to the army shop for some sewing. Haha. Friday was such a rushed leave so didn't really plan things to do. Haha. Anyways spent the rest of my day slacking at home.

Oh yea, I bought 梁静茹 new album: 今天情人天. It's a damn nice album! It's a few songs from the older alum but mostly new and live songs. Damn nice. Oh have i ever mentioned that her live performance songs exactly the same as the CD. She's THAT good. Haha. Some song really worth listening is 今天情人节，如果能在一起，崇拜，诱惑的街，梦醒时分 and C'est La Vie. Go listen. It's highly recommended!

Then yeaterday went over to my aunt's house for family gathering. Really enjoyed it man. Good food, good wine, good ambience, good people. What else can I ask for man! Haha. We had a guy to guy talk, literally (Coz my paternal cousins are all guys!). Had great time watching soccer, F1 and yea BOLLYWOOD movies! It was great! Oh and my oldest cousin is getting engaged this year and married next year. Haha. He's only 24 lahz. But god damn it, he's a high flier. Gifted student, RJC, Lawyer. Wow. Haha. Anyways my best wishes. Don't know the exact date yet. Hope I don't miss it coz im going Oz in October. Haha. Everything was nice that night. Next gathering would be at my Uncle's house. So nice. So looking forward to it. =D
