Just came back from dinner with my family. Yupz was my birthday yesterday and I was stuck in camp all day. So yea, celebrated my belated birthday today. Ate at this Chinese restaurant in Bedok. It was kinda casual, but the food was great. Haha. Really enjoyed it. Haha. Anyway a big thanks to all you guys for your well-wishes! Really appreciate them.

Oh yes that brings me back to my birthday itself. I almost spent my entire birthday WAITING! That just shows how efficient the organising committee is. I wouldn't have mind it at all if my day was spent working. But WTH. It was spent waiting. And getting nagged at. Terrible. Yesterday was just terrible. Anyway, booked out late and went to makan with my bunk mates before going home.

Today was supposed to have my driving lesson, but because of some unforseen circumstances, the driving centre canceled my lesson last minute. So yea, was free for the entire afternoon. Haha. Niceee.. Oh my computer is finally back from the dead! Fantastic. Spent my entire afternoon restoring the stuff back into my PC. Haha. It's tough man. But yea, almost everything's up except for my songs. Haiz. Think it's time to get a portable hard disk to store and backup my stuff. All this restoring is hard work! Haha.

Ok back to my life. Army Open House rehearsals have been alright, if not for some people who know nuts about M_ _ _(numbers) but keep trying to correct(Or not.. I doubt..) us. And they can't provide us with the basic stuff and everything.. Only knowing how to complain and not appreciate our help. Oh and there's the M_ _ (rank) T_O_M_S (name) how's the most irritating of the lot. Ok whatever lah. Not gonna divulge too much information on my blog lest I get scrutinised for revealing too much classified information and by-passing the chain of command.(It doesn't matter though. Our feedback is never ever heard anyway.) All I can say is that I joined AOH hoping that it will be a good experience, but what I got is shit. I don't really mind burning weekends and working while others are resting.. doing all the maintenance and stuff.. but sometimes, all we need is a little appreciation bah. Ok whatever.

Eventful week. Or rather weeks. I can forsee more nonsense coming. We will see bah..

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
