SuperFriday.

I love cooking for my close friends.
I love going to the supermarket at times and buy new cleaners for the home, PineOKleen is my favourite. =)
I love blasting my mp3s in my room, being in my personal audiosphere.
I love the chilly cool breeze, makes you feel alive.
I love chillies!

Congrats!

Oh man i am so excited. =)
chatted with mum on the fone too today..kekeke

Not only is today the first day of the new sem, which went along well, had lotsa motivation by keeping a certain nut close to my thoughts.

But also..Ah Soh is gonna be a dad soon in 7 months time! woohooo! and the names have already been decided. Timothy or Tammy Soh. =) wow...i wasn't this excited when Lau Bee had his kid, probably thats coz his was ahem, unplanned for.=P In any case, really excited and happy for Ah Soh!
Guys, if you are reading this, send out an sms to congrat Stone Soh Steve Hongshing. kekeke

Would be in time to return and witness Ah Soh being a father too.
And also share in the joy of Amelia's wedding to YP.
Wow..life's beautiful. =)
So happy for the both of them. ^________^

BAck to the topic of motivating myself more in terms of studies.
decided that in order to break the norm of complacency..i would need to change around my regime ..which means. =P

1)No more couch potatoing after dinner. (lesser Tv, more books)
2)Lesser time spent online surfing senseless soccersites,downloading music,etc.
3)Studying out of the comfort zone of home in order to concentrate better without the lure of the bed. =P

i reckon in order not to remain so slack..n unmotivated, i need to break my norm, my cycle of complacency.
Fortunately i had an impetus last night, initated by someone very kind, (word of concern to the apple that dropped) whom sparked me into action.

So have you spoken to your muse today?
I'm loving it! =)

Its the new semester.

Oh wow..today is the first day of the new semester.
My final semester here in Melbourne Australia...

wow..in a few months time..all this pretending to be a student and my 'civilian Service' would come to an end.
Its back to reality,Mud,Green,Sweat all over again.=)

At least i would be earning real money again, not living off savings or from my mom n pops, which is kinda difficult considering since NS i havent taken much money from them.

Seeing some of my friends living it up and some failing to enjoy the same things as others due to financial ability/disability really accentuated that notion of earning money becoming very important to me.

In anycase, coming here and meeting some of my old friends and making new ones was already a very enriching and wonderful experience for me. I wouldnt want things any other way and i appreciate what life has given me, indeed, i can't ask for any thing more, i am blessed beyond words when it comes to friends. =)

To you all, thank you.

Just before i go, i'll like to make a few new semester resolutions.

1) Do all my readings in time and properly before each tutorial.
2) Not to do a major essay over 3 days.
3) Learn more from a very motivated nut and be more driven,rather then being such a bus passenger all the time.
4) Get my cardio fitness back to AHM level.(I noe i aint no marathon runner, but i noe i can run harder)
5) In fact, i know i can do so much more in everything tat i do, be it during the times in OCS, in Unit, here in melbourne, i want to get more drive in my life.+fingerscrossed, someone just knocked this into my head+
Wah seh! today i found my muse siah...

Watch out!

4 More Days.

New Semester starts officially on monday.

Firstly, i wonder what happened to edwin, i don't know what the hell happened. but it just seems that i have lost a friend whom i thought i had a connection with during my days in Mowbray camp.

I haven't posted my pix from sydney...perhaps i wouldn't for the time being, i figure i'll look at them again when i am feeling down, just to pep myself up. =)

Theres nothing wrong in feeling down once in awhile..or even if its for a prolonged period.

Without these low periods in my life, i reckon i wouldn't have done half the self reflecting that i did...which is not bad at all, considering some good does come out from collecting your own thoughts once in awhile.

wah seh..BRAINDEAD...fortunately this is not during essay production period! Sorry folks, i'll have to leave you with this terrible blog that makes not much sense.

I would like to attribute this to eating too much potatoes and watching too much television, especially cricket...=P
Till the next blog, stay safe and happy!

Sometimes u can't make it on your own.

Before i start posting up pics and pics from the hectic last two weeks of dinner parties, gatherings and my sydney trip, allow me some time to reflect on my mood and feelings at this time.

After a exhausting drive back from sydney, which made me absolutely swear off any plans for a great aussie drive up to brisbane, i got back to wet cold and rainy Melbourne last night, indeed, she must have been enraged at my obsession and lust for sdyney, which captivated my senses with her sunny weather, the tall skyscrapers and busy streets (which i think really suited Superman's Metropolis) and finally, i got to see for myself, darling harbour, a place i remembered only because of her.

I felt so gloomy and sad to leave on friday..(not grumpy lah mind u!=P)
If you needed to know, besides the things that were troubling me which i have told u, the experience of parting company with u, petrified me as to how things would be at the end of the year... besides that, i still wish to apologise for having to have my feelings being taken care of by u... =) Sorry and at the same time, thank you.

Even if i grasped the happy memories of yesterday, it is difficult to not find that tinge of sadness within those memories. I have been trying and will continue to try... can't wait for u to be back! =P

haha..as for the rest of u..stay tuned for the pix..coming up..steamboat at alvin and jeremy's and sydney!
