FATE

actually i thought of what i wanna post but haven't thought of the title for the post. But on my way home, something happened and the title naturally came to my mind. Haha.

How else can you explain meeting somebody for the 2nd time in 3 days? And i need to mention how it happened today. I was dumbfolded by how it happened today. I was walking back home, listening to my mp3, like any other day. Suddenly, i just thought of her, AND she just appeared! Whoa! This is way too coincidental le. Is this called fate? But anyway, i dunno how to grab hold of fate de so let me just stay happy after all these incidents that happened.

Did i mention i met her on saturday as well? Yeah, we saw each other on saturday as well. It lifted my spirits upon seeing her. I didn't know we live in the same block. So it came as a surprise to me. This has overwrite the 2 good movies that I watched over the weekends. Astroboy & 2012. Astroboy, because it was a 'new' thing to me. I don't quite know the whole story of Astroboy except for who this character was. And 2012, how do i start. It was a long show. 2 hours and 30 mins at least. But, it sure don't feel like such a long show. I never once looked at my watch and it was only after the movie that I know i spent such a long time in the theatre. It showed different sides of people. It tells people to treasure all people among ourselves. Apart from the computer graphics which looks too unrealistic, it was a nice show after a long while.

For the past weeks, weekends has been quite simple except for last sunday. New Balance Real Run in the morning, and an eventful afternoon, evening & night with poly buddies. The run was a disappointment. I was too slow. No excuse should be given though. I just wasn't doing enough. It wasn't easy but I should do better. But wii in the afternoon was followed by a japanese dinner and a partyworld session. It ended as a good day. =)

Cousin's getting married this saturday. My hair's pretty sh*t. I haven't thought of what to wear. And why must you hold it at such a posh place!! The journey of growing up with him, though not very close, till him getting married now made me felt strange. Nervertheless, I'm extremely happy for him and grandma. Her favourite grandson is getting married!

Anyway, i'm totally hooked on these 2 songs. 我爱他" & "你为什么说谎" by 丁当. I dunno how many hundreds of times I've listened to the 2 songs. But i'm not sicked of them at all!

good weekend ahead

Yesterday was a busy day. Both at work and when having fun. Work was pretty tiring. Simply don't understand why there can be days when so little people come to make pass, for example, less than 50 people came. And all of a sudden, the numbers shoot to close to 200 on another day. Absolutely crazy!

But the activities after work was good. First, it was high-tea with ORD peeps at Ah Yat Abalone Restaurant @ Orchard Central. The baked rice is delicious. The soup is good. Even the milk tea wasn't bad. Then comes the looonngg trip to Woodlands. All because of a certain someone. Haha. We loitered around Causeway Point while waiting for rabbit. And guess what. We saw LTC Victor. LOL. Just ORD-ed still have to see superiors. Next is dinner at Botak Jones. I ate so much till I'm totally bloated. Just to mention, I had MacChicken for lunch. Abalone & Chicken baked rice for high-tea. And Cajun Chicken for dinner. What a chicky day!

The Nike+ Human Race today wasn't good. I didn't complete the run without stopping. And as usual, the moment i stopped, i can't really continue le. Practice wasn't enough. Mentality wasn't strong enough. Need to train more in order to last the whole 10km. But nevertheless, it was an improvement yet a disappointment. Gotta do better in 2 weeks' time. And oh yah, timing wasn't that bad. I think i completed in about 1 hr 20 mins.

Gonna meet the guys again for movie and the ma'ams will be coming as well. Movie then supper for today. Whoa! A very expensive weekend. But absolutely happening.

finally got my lazy fingers to move

It has been weeks since I last blogged. Basically, there's nothing much to highlight. For the past few weeks, it has been just work, home & jogging. Seldom go out to chill. Suddenly, I start to feel the need to have more friends so that u can find more people to go out with.

I don't want my weekends to be just like what happened last weekend. Left my house at 5 plus and end up getting back home on a Saturday nite at 8pm!! Such a bored weekend. Luckily, this week was much better. Apart from my usual evening jog, I watched movie on tuesday with 2 buddies. And just went for karaoke session yesterday. And as weekend approaches, my insomnia is going away. Finally!! Been having sleepless nites for the past week.

Not to mention, a long lost primary school best friend just added me on facebook. It was a nice primary school memory and the friendship bond built with him was definitely a pleasant one. So looking forward to meeting him after his exams period.

At least, positive changes were made for this week. How can weekends be boring?? Anyway, which should I get? A cool Blackberry Bold or a multi-functions Omnia II? Both OS seems to be upgrading, its going to be a tough choice. Gonna have 2 new gadgets by the end of the year, sooo happy!

an average week..

Wasn't having the best of mood for this week. And an average week was concluded today with poor control of temper today. I don't understand how some people think but maybe I wasn't doing a good enough job in his opinion. He told me off. I think I showed my emotions and he saw it as well. And after that he ask me not to take it to heart and said he reacted because of his high blood pressure. This really left me clueless. First you tell a person off, and you apologise. I don't mind you telling me off 'coz it gave me a chance to reflect on my customer service skills and improve. But why apologise after that?

Anyway, maybe I should always carry a smile when I work. I think i was just having an expression-less face and it seemed like I gave people the idea that I'm angry. Haiz.

I think I'm going for some retail therapy over the weekend. I'm going to get at least 2 things over the weekend. A tuner for my guitar and a CD. Maybe will be buying more. But lets see how much I can control myself.

I need to spend more time on jogging too. Need to improve to perform well in the Nike+ Human Race. I'm really looking forward to it.

round up of weekend

The supposedly busy weekend turns out not to be as busy as I expected. Here's the summary of what I did over the past few days.

Thursday - Meet up with the unit guys for Charles' farewell dinner. Its going to be a long while till I see him next time.

Friday - I mixed up the date for my guitar make up class. How nice! Either I wasn't listening to the instructions by my teacher or his english is really that hard to understand. Actually, half of the time i don't understand what he's saying 'coz his english got the indonesian slang. So I end up looking at IT stuffs at Funan alone..

Saturday - Had a 'war' with the tuition boy. Had guitar class. Went to Comex. Celebrated rabbit's birthday. It was an awkward gathering. Just imagine 10 people eating. 4 people are of 1 clique. 6 people are of one clique. Both groups are gathering at a restaurant for a common friend's birthday. And both groups are seeing each other for the first time. There was absolutely minimal contact between us. Just doesn't feel nice.

Something extremely pleasant happened yesterday. But I didn't take the initiative and I lost the chance. What a waste ah!! On the other hand, maybe I read too much into the situation. But it was a nice memory though. Just let me stay in that moment for a while longer. =)

Sunday, today - Supposed to be going out with huat & kit. But kit needs to study for his test again. So, the outing was cancelled.

So, my supposedly busy weekends turned out to be ordinary. But nevertheless, that 1 incident still lingers in my mind. It wasn't that bad after all.

the start to a busy weekend..

This weekend is going to be a busy weekend. Never had such a long one for such a long time. Today was a farewell dinner meet-up for Charles, who will be leaving for London at the end of the month. There's guitar make-up lessons for friday & sunday. And I'll need to go Comex as well as celebrate rabbit's birthday on saturday. Lastly, it will be an outing with kit & huat on Sunday.

The dinner gathering with the unit guys today was a pretty enjoyable one. Rarely see charles & wei jie for most of the meet-ups. So it was good to see them after a long time. In fact, it was about 8 months since I last saw them when they ORD. It's good to see all of us are either ORD or going to ORD. Hopefully their Day will come soon 'coz the environment is getting bad over there.

Anyway, i'm quite grateful to these friends. Somehow, i think they influenced me to improve in a good way. They're down-to-earth and somehow they are super determined to do what they want. I feel pretty ashamed to be next to them.

Actually...have I changed this past 2 years? I hope I did change for the better. But if I haven't, I better do some serious soul-searching.

Dunno why but emo-ness just struck me....

i just learned a lesson

The weekend which has just ended has been a smooth-sailing one. A pleasant weekend.

Normally, I will treat my tuition session with my tuitee, a war. 'Coz usually he can end up doing what he wants, refusing to listen to what I've said during the whole session. Usually, by the end of the tuition, I'll be mentally tired and blood is usually boiling at above 100 degrees. But, to my surprise, he was quite obedient as compared to other sessions. What more can I ask for from a 10 year old kid?

Next, I had a enriching guitar lesson. Learnt a few tricks to play guitar chords. Once, I'm getting better with it, I shall learn some Chinese songs to play. And that's all for Saturday.

Sunday was a busy day. Was out with mum to get some daily necessities. Ended up home at 4pm. Went out by 5pm to meet huat, kit & bert for dinner. And it was a good outing for us, i guess. I was pretty happy and it has been a long time since all 4 of us get together. Hmm, I think its close to 2 months? Or even longer..Haha. And its good to hear from kit that he's taking studies better liao. No longer stressing himself too much. But hopefully, he still can get to achieve his Harvard dream. After that I met with wai & yx for a chat.

But all these happy incidents that had happened were eclipsed by one single remark or joke which a friend cracked. It wasn't a joke to begin with, and with that joke a sensitive topic, he asked me whether I'm scared by what he said. Oh, did I mention what topic is that joke about? It was about suicidal, by the way.

Haiz. One friendship issue solved over the weekend, here comes another. How nice...
