extended childhood

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

yeah just got home from drinking and chilling session with buddies at Clarke Quay. gosh thank goodness for the extended train and bus services today. say a lot of money compared to taking a taxi back from there especially with the extra 50% after midnight charges.

past few days were eye opening. wait. that did not sound right. i don't know how to phrase it properly. hmm... well just saying that i have seen things clearly through the past few days. people always tell you things happen for a reason. people always tell you that you make decisions, regardless it seemed silly or what not at the point in time, for a reason. i never really take these words seriously because i see too short a term. in the long run, some or rather most proves so.

decisions i made months ago seemed dumb. i kept telling myself i might be wrong to myself and i am just disappointing myself and pulling myself further down. then recently events proved me otherwise. shan't elaborate in case i make these events too obvious which obviously i prefer not to. things happen to me, bad things i mean, i sure curse and swear at my rotten luck or my lousy fate or something along this line. again the same few events proved me otherwise. there are blessings in disguise.

thank goodness for my mental strength to pull through the last few months. hmm i realise i like using "thank goodness" instead of the usual "thank God". why? i free thinker and i don't know which God to believe by i believe he/she/they exist. so yeah.

all these talk bring me to the final point i want to say here today. my senior reminded me or rather enlightened me something i never realise until he said so. he told be NS extend your time of play. typical NSF guys can afford more fun more thrill more play in life than females who are our peers. reason being once you start working in the real society, you can't really enjoy and play hard. you do so in study years and for guys NS. okay one more positive point of NS.

manual

hello people i know even i having blocked leave i still did not take time off to actually blog about the things and events happening these few days and all. so again i apologize and in return i shall put in 101% effort to update with this super long post. not long to you maybe but for sure long for me. so let's start where i left off.

two weeks ago, after my standby duties, the pain in my left ankle area was totally unbearable already. each time i run or walk down the stairs, the pain will be twice painful. in the end went to MO and got issued with a 2-months status. in laymen terms, i'm excused from running for two whole months. sounds good? no. for one, the status is too long. two, i cannot play soccer with my platoon mates in camp. three, i cannot train for my second year IPPT in which will take place soon and in which i too want to achieve a gold at last. so this whole blocked leave, i refrained from exerting my legs aside from driving and hopefully after this week can go back revoke status. hope.

this blocked leave been out couple of times. even got myself nearly drunk and ended up coming back home puking and going driving with a mild hangover. lol i know i wasn't drunk for i remembered every single thing that happened and can still listen to the small voice of conscience calling in me. well stupidly putting it, i had fun and probably too much a fun in an evening.

to update you on my driving, i guess it is pretty good? so many instructors keep questioning if i have ever driven illegally or not. at first it sounds like a compliment but somehow it became annoying. haha ohh well but all i can take away from the remarks is that they say i progress fast than an average new driver would. see playing many driving games and loving kart rides do pay off. just pass the halfway mark of the 2nd module of the three modules. good i guess? okay not whether good or not, i find it fast. hope it isn't too fast to my disadvantage. manual driving sure  help you 'season' your knees i swear, especially on rainy days for me.

yesterday was a fun night again but no don't worry, i didn't went drunk or what. just had an awesome BBQ session at ECP with secondary school mates. awesome food. awesome company. hell of a time. well got few funny and weird take-aways from yesterday. Van can still mount kerb and isn't good in directions despite being our only designated driver at this point in time. Jason is seen flirting around as he reasoned that all animals but one cheat on their mates some time. hmm okay show goes on haha. PF can drink beer and wants to learn guitar. JiaXin's uni timetable is screwed up. pity SIM students. JingJie is a legend. try find me a friend who got fired from his/her intern job within a week and the legend title will be handed over. ZY is doing up an unique project regarding chairs.

okay, better go eat dinner and go back to P2 sudden Maple craze.

public

a change is probably the more realistic option. hope everything goes well. what happen in the near future doesn't really matter i guess but further than that might need to reconsider. for now, shan't worry that much. live the present, embrace the future.

because an underline is too mainstream

okay i know i haven't been blogging since don't know when so yeah since today is the first day of the last month of 2012, i shall blog. dumb reason yeah. actually it is just an excuse i came up for myself to update my blog.

anyway, been going to numerous practical driving lessons now. learning manual class 3 is rather tiring but fun. your legs 24/7 control the the three pedals namely clutch, brake, accelerator. each time at the end of the lesson when i step out of the driver seat sure cannot walk properly for a few steps. these lessons are also eating too much into my expenditure man. up to today, i estimate i've spent at least $600 on them already. nonetheless, quite mentally prepared to fork out at least $2000 already but still not as fast as now. oh well, it's okay.
