So I tried playing

GOLF!!!

hahaha it was totally impromptu and well, unplanned if you can see what i wore. Had to ask my sister to bring me my shoes when on the way to fetch me.

Well, i concluded (once again) that ball games and myself, not really a good pair. hahaha managed a few good hits but the rest of the time, pathetic. but well, commendable for a first timer I guess.

Probably going to try again and Ms Lim has booked the next visit to be done with her. haha

After a long pause

from the cinemas... I finally caught another movie. Well, of course the much talked about and anticipated movie tis year.

The Dark Knight



not bad at all... not bad at all...


Well, on another note...

Feeling totally bored. I need school to start soon. the desire to be surrounded by fresh, weightless air, by the ambience of youth in the new school year.. Enough of waking up only to carry out the same routine week after week. Maybe.... I'm just bored, or perhaps I'm just clueless about what I want with my life. Moving myself from place to place without really knowing how and why. Forgetting appointments. Waking up to know that there is really nothing happening in the day, or night. and the day after. Good thing I've something on today. Bad thing, the week of rest is coming to an end and the weekly routine is beginning again.

Seriously in a debt.

remember the days?

Remember the days where you depend on someone to get the milo powder stored high up in the cabinets simply cos' you are not tall enough?

The days where you have the fear of losing that particular molar that is shaky at the back of your oral cavity.

The days where you feel like superman knocking your head all over the place (including that of your friend's).

The days where you sit at the school's bus bay waiting for that familiar face to pick you up.

The days where you feel like a king with all your friends and relatives standing around you pretending it's their birthday as well.

The days where the entire family and extended family and those who are not so extended but well, invitation was extended to them as well, sitting together eating a rather noisy dinner of which none of the conversation actually bothered you (provided you could understand what they were saying in the first place)

The days of simplicity where you literally walk to your neighbour's house to play with him. And back then, playing meant playing. unlike nowadays where the word 'play' has so many other unspoken meanings that I don't even want to think about.

The days where really, physically and literally, food is fed to your mouth.

The days where tv programmes were simple. Channel 5, channel 8. (at least for me)

The days where going out meant going downstairs / the nearest playground.

The days where 好朋友 meant it is (probably) going to last forever.

The days where the same toys could last you a lifetime (or well, a childhood time)

The days where you compare whose ruler is longer, whose pencil case is nicer and whose pens are more expensive yada yada...

Well, point is. I don't know where to go from here. Since there is nothing to fall back on as what's passed has gone by and never to come again.

Times have changed and certainly, changed for the uncertainty.

;)

哦,忘了在这里祝贺我的B2一个很快乐的生日!

不知明日事

當我決定去動眼部手術時,的確會有一點的遲疑 — 這十七年來的不便和麻煩終於會終止嗎?

當醫生告訴我我左眼《看不見鬼》的眼睫毛會阻礙到手術眼睛的康復,而我必須接受另一個手術來改正它,我就知道這一切沒有那麼簡單。

雖然她是告訴我說我的眼睛很適合做這類型的手術,但因為我的眼睫毛的問題,之後,我將會有雙眼皮,這將是一件我無法適應的事。

已經活了25年,也習慣自己容貌,突然將不會在鏡子裡看見熟稀的臉孔,就是感覺怪怪的。

明天的事,明天才來操心吧!今天都還沒活完。

New discovery.

買我的 “蘋果” 電腦至今已有9個月。 而我還是今天才發覺到它不只能寫出法文,英文,很顯然地,也可以寫出華文!哈哈。

有點白痴但我簡直是開心和興奮到有點幼稚。 Alex Tan 口中說的 〈無聊加無知〉 。 不知道誰是 Alex Tan 嗎? 看電視就知道了!哇,我真的是有點無聊。用華文寫也會寫到那麼高興!的確有點累但是是有滿足感的!

噢!我最喜歡的電視節目已開始了! 待會兒再見!

hmm

after running about 11km the other day, today I think I just broke my own record by blading for about 24.6km. (distance according to sgforums.com and my own evaluation). To and fro from the Fort Road C1 carpark to the park connector that ends just before the Changi Coastal Road.

Not too sure how long I took but started at about 5+ and reached home at about 7+...

Feeling quite accomplished and satisfied.

good good.

Who says growing old means staying put on my couch munching away?

and time, of course is what I make outta it.

This is the butt naked truth.

For 17 years of my life, I had been handicapped. I don't know how long more it will last - this handicap.

Well, most people would know that I'm close to being blind, except for those I only see out there without having to spend the night.

So in any case, I'm scheduled for my lasik surgery this 21-25th. (July) and well, hopefully I fit the criteria of undergoing such a surgery so I can then be freed from the hassles of spectacles and contact lenses... Imagine having to wake up and be greeted by clear vision.. Boy I cannot remember when the last time it happened. Neither do I have a memory of how clear the world looks like without any visual aids.

Hmmm, of course it will mean that spectacles will then be an accessory rather than an aid, a necessity.So here, kudos to my 17 years of spectacles for going through dirt, sweat, mud (especially during army), overseas trips, suffering fates such as falling from great heights to bear cracked lenses... well, the list goes on.

Maybe I won't have to take any more photos with spectacles on any more.

It works

New toy purchased.

So what happens when your current phone shows the first signs of deterioration?

Well, trade it in while you still can fetch some money..

and that was what I did in exchange for this.



The black leathery patch of thing at the bottom is actually the cover for the battery, which can be removed and replaced by a piece of metallic cover similar to the piece at the top where the camera is located. and this leathery piece of cover is actually one piece which includes the front full flap that protects the screen. :) NICE....

Yup, it's touch screen. 5 megapix camera blah blah... difficult to sms with all these new touch screen things. sigh... next time driving need more concentration for multi-tasking.

I initially wanted the Nokia Music Xpress phone (yup, just a basic phone that I can call with) but went to Singtel and they are having a promotion blah blah. So I got this phone for only $48. Quite a catch hur??

Not too bad, and not too catchy like the Omnia. This is only about 5 credit cards thick (according to the guy at the Express Queue Counter) haha

Satisfied.

Things I learnt from my tuition kids...

If this " ---->" is superman, what is this "<----" ???





























Superman returns.

anyway, yesterday he just bummed out in the middle of the tuition and asked if I take the MRT. and so I said yes. And he immediately went 'HUH? then you take the train but wear like this ah?'

and so I propped the question, "why? what is wrong?"

He said, "looks like uncle ma".

Thanks.. thanks... (and i was in tee shirt and berms).
*rolls eyes* young kids nowadays. TSK

an Emo entry

Perhaps it would be better if I talk a little more to people around me rather than appearing aloof.

Perhaps it would be better if I pay a little more attention to those around as well.

Perhaps it would be better if I put in a bit more effort in making people feel secure about my presence.

Perhaps it would be better if I speak out my inner thoughts?

Perhaps it would then no longer be me.

Perhaps it would make more sense for me to really be alone and not worry about sensitive/ volatile human relationships. But having said that, it would just be admitting defeat to the challenges that life poses. and we human beings are not solitary animals. Furthermore, I don't think I give up that easily.

Hmmm...

On the not-so-emo-side of this entry, today had been rather fruitful in terms of keeping fit and maintaining a healthy lifestyle after my overseas trips...

Went to re-start my lap swimming at the pool (not to forget mentionning the tanning session), went for tuition and have a battle with the kid, came back and recharged my ipod nano for a run around my neighbourhood and just as I thought the day had ended at 10pm for me, my sister changed and was preparing to head out, and I followed her.

To East Coast Park for a night blading session with her friend and herself. It was certainly the first time I blade at such late hours... (though yesterday I just went there to blade at 8.30pm to about 10pm)... discovered some pretty nice new areas for blading and I'm pretty certain I'll head back that area again albeit the far distance. (tone that ass baby!)

Well, the sea breeze has this therapeutic effect (amidst the perspiration) and well, company is certainly welcomed. However, most of the friends I know do not blade. Seems like I have to do it "Al-Desmond" style. Solitary. Sometimes I can't help but think that it is not me who choose to do things by myself, but rather I am forced/ trapped into it.

Rather, I guess I just have to go find myself new social groups. At 25 and my social circle is shrinking. Not a Good Sign.

Anyway, hair is dry and eyes are droopy. legs are crampy and Soul is weary.

Good night mes amis.
