Whew! Another short break from Blogging. Time indeed is tight these days. I really miss school.. no kidding. While horror stories about the stress I'm gonna face out there when I resume studies are starting to worry me a little, there really is no working back.

Went back to PJC with Pye, YY and CS yesterday. Despite the sleep deprivation the previous day, somehow the hidden reserves could be drawn out for a basketball game. Felt so good to sweat it out under the hot sun once more, renewing the tan that just keeps on disappearing. Though I still cant shoot for nuts, nostalgia was in the air, playing basketball back in my JC. Pretty much like how I did back in those days.

It was fun, catching up with the teachers and updating myself on how the other classmates are doing. Such are the bonds I really wanna keep till the end of my days. Would it really survive the harsh and fast-moving pace of adult working life?

Coming on 21 now.. indeed time flies..

Updates in Life
Its been too long since I last updated. Haha.. a sign of things to come. Indeed, as I look ahead to the months before me, I shiver. The number of events that lie ahead of me are way too many. Slowly, a bit of stress and fatigue is building. The month of March is either gonna make or break me. I do hope its the former.

As I pull up my socks and take a deep breath and forge forward, I guess I should first immerse myself in a brief reprise. CNY. Though it doesn't feel like CNY to me (well.. most festivities never rub off on me), Its nice to take a break anyway, albeit interrupted by duties. Think that would severely affect my Hong Bao chances.

Looking back, a number of major events have passed. Valentines Day.. couple of birthdays.. etc. I think I did have fun. Thanks for the V Day present dear haha I really like it. Lol practical ma.. ^^ hope you liked yours.

Dicky's coming back and Jeremy's leaving. Haha on the same day too! Funny sia.. oh well, welcome back and bon voyage!

Oh.. I learnt how to pronounce a french word. Menage a Trois. Haha.. not the best word to learn but oh well. French is indeed elegant. Even this word sounds really nice.

Happy CNY all! Hope the flow of money doesnt go against you!

Today Justin and Eric ORDs. The course is dwindling as people head back into civilisation. Its pretty touching to see them go..

Before he left, he sent us all a goodbye email.

This, I have in reply (some are censored out due to security reasons ^^)

To the new NSman in Singapore:

Somehow you escaped all the name calling and everything the onlyonewhodoesn'thave a nickname I can remember other than that time you morphed when poor Noddy called for the brake when I slipped. "WHO SHOUT FOR BRAKE!??" Unforgettable. Even now I smile when I think about it.

Tough times do make tough men. And it is indeed true for you. Your exploits upstairs in that haven of yours (or is it hell?) with the crew and our favorite roly poly ^^ always eludes us somehow. But we know you are working hard for 160, leading men who are no doubt older and more experienced. Your ability to inspire anyone you come into contact with comes from you being able to socialise both on a professional and social manner.

I too will miss the talk-cock sessions each time "breakfast?"comes on the phone. haha.. and I still got the clip of your wrestling match with mon.

Take care bro, and as I look on in envy as you have the scholarship I wanted (and the chance to mingle with pretty schoolgirls) I wish you all the best in your future endeavors.

Do call us out formeetingswhen we all have the chance.

And yes, I do foresee myself being swamped by workin SMU. Nonetheless, rest assured I'm the kind of guy that thrives on stress. Hate being slack sometimes ^

FOR THE LONGEST TIME!! ~haha love that time when we sang it Gunner-style (with eric screaming like a banshee)

MY ORD MAY COME IN THE FUTURE..

Outing
Yup, Im the last to post this. Haha.. 2 weeks late. Oh well.. After looking through their posts, its pretty obvious Lyn's got the more humorous narrative. Not gonna try to outdo them,but here's the guy's point of view.

Anyways, that day was not very happy for me due to some reason I will not talk about, but still I appreciated the company ^^

Indeed, me the army guy was lost in between the dialogue of 2 girls who are in school. In layman terms, it just means "Huh??" So the TV and Sharapova's wide shoulder became my main attention (aside from the food) while I tried to participate.

Guess the fun part really came at TCC where that incident with the (in their words cute) waiter called me madam. I mean, Kor Kor or even uncle I heard before.. but madam?? o.0 can't believe it. The 2 of them just doubled over in laughter Oh well.. I must admit he probably fits the bill for ZA or Lyn, just gotta know whether he meets their first criteria only. Haha.. that klutzy movement of his pretty much pairs up quite fine with ZA ^^. They even got so interested in him to search him out on friendster! Oh well.. girls..

Yep.. gonna stop here.. haven been posting for so long so I'm like rushing through belated posts..

Wonder who ZA's first BF will be like o.0
