A quick weekend getaway in steamy Bangkok.
The place is still bustling with activity, road side stalls selling yummylicious food, hot thai food, even hotter thai chicks (especially those in Uni Uniforms. hurhur =P) smoggy atmosphere, constant traffic jams, just the way i remembered it to be and the way i like it.
I was reaquainted with the best Pork belly soup i had ever tasted, which i have missed very much since 1.5 years ago when i first 'slurped' up two bowls. Even the auntie selling durians was still there with her machete and looking not too different from the way i remembered her to be.
Although i couldnt get to Wat Rakang due to some language problems/miscommunication, it was good to be able to visit Wat Suthat again and offer prayers while appreciating the majestic sight and artistry of Buddhist art, the temple and its surrounds.
Other then eating eating and more eating, besides praying, it was a good trip out shopping, especially checking out the Suan Lam Night Bazaar which is soooo MUCH better and easier to shop then the imfamously hot Chatuchak Weekend Market.=)
Finally, forget Krispy Kreme, all Hail Mister Donut!

Isit a sign or another one of my funny dreams?
Just last night i had this dream whereby i was back in Melb.
However, most of the regular gang werent there in my dream, interestingly even one of my seldom seen Singporean childhood friend appeared in dreamy Melb.
I was happy to be back in Melb at that moment, to the extent that i had even slapped myself repeatedly to make sure i wasnt dreaming, slap slap slap! I didnt wake up and so i thought, wow! Kewl! i'm back here again.Quik! wheres the rest of the gang?
It was only slowly then i realised, oooh sheesh, i have to go Bangkok tmr! How am i gonna get back there? Silly dream it was, it didnt even end properly, all i could remember from that dream was how i tried to look for Alvin's number on the mobile but yet i couldn't. HoHum.

A Week Gone By
Another week has gone by and i'm loving my work more and more, the politics and inefficiencies might be there constantly but the feeling of having men under you and training and bonding with them with the passing of each day and event emits a sense of fulfilment that i struggle to describe.
Soon the first year Commanders would be Ord-ing (that means their National Service ends), i am gonna miss having great guys like Lawrence, Bingyao, Ywee Ern, well, the entire bunch is just great, unique individuals whom made up the Scout Platoon.
Going to have a short break this weekend away in Bangkok. More updates n fotos once i'm back!=0
Take care lovelies!

Deja Vu!
Last month or so, ZH's fone went dead on her, after admiring her N70 the other day, i was actually worried that my fone (7610) would somehow succumb to bad luck and get scrapped.
And indeed it has, my fone went dead on me on friday, it couldnt have happened at a 'better' time, my contacts, the dates stored within the calender, the numerous messages from dearest friends, all gone. =(
Just sent in the fone for repair, finger's crossed it's repairable so i may trade it in for a new fone that i've been pinning for (but not financally willing to buy). *bleh.
PS, Cali, i've been tagged!
Will come up with something tonite.hahah
does mandarin songs count?=P

El Cheapo Tactic #235
*Yey!*
I've gotten my Credit card annual fees waived. Mwahahahha.=P
But then again, with the credit card market being so competitive, they can't be seriously thinking that people would willingly pay annual fees when other banks/cards are offering free cards/platinum cards at random right? kekeke
Consumer power shall dictate that credit card fees should be a thing of the past.
Holler if you're made to pay those fees!

A Happy belated birthday to Dad!
Fri night was spent having dinner with the family and it was nice to visit that nice lil' Zher Char (means assorted cooked food stall in local dialect) again after so long for a meal together with the family like we always used to.=)
The weekend was well spent in the company of a dear friend whom i have grown to enjoy the time spent together.
Sunday was interesting too!
I was awaken really early in the morning at about 730am, by sounds of male voices singing in the distance. It was a mandarin song, to be exact, it was 月亮代表我的心。
Groggy from being awoken so early in the morning, i climbed out of bed to investigate this abnormal occurence on a sunday morning.
It turned out to my pleasant surprise that it was in fact a group of guys and their male buddy whom was getting hitched this morning and was being made to sing (along with other 'necessary tasks' ) before he could get to his wife behind a locked gate kindly guarded by her 'sisters'.
*i always tell myself to stand by a lock cutter when its my or my buddies turn. It might come in handy! *chuckles*
Headed back to bed with a smile after experiencing early sunday morning romance in the air.
I headed down to Beach Road in the afternoon and gotten myself someting which i should have a few days ago.hahaha oh well, no harm done. Then it was back home for dinner with Mum and basketball game with the guys after that.
It felt good to work up a big sweat after the game. I love the game, although i'm not that good in it, it feels good to be competitive and enjoying the game while keeping my ass fit during this slack period while i am on course.
Last day of the course tmr and back to Unit on Wed.
Life's just gotten busier and less interesting on Wed.=P

我间中饮醉酒很喜欢自由
常犯错爱说谎但总会内疚
遇过很多的损友学到贪新厌旧
亦欠过很多女人
怕结婚只会守三分钟诺言
曾话过要戒烟但讲了就算
梦与想丢低很远但对返工厌倦
自小不会打算
但是仍唯独你爱我这废人
出错你都肯去忍
然而谁亦早知不会合衬
偏偏你愿意等
为何还喜欢我我这种无赖
是话你蠢还是很伟大
在座每位都将我踩口碑有多坏
但你亦永远不见怪
何必跟我我这种无赖
没大半生还是很失败
但是你死都不变心跟我笑著捱
就算坏我也不忍心偷偷作怪
没有跟的野种飘忽的命途
谁像你当我宝甚黱也做到
旧爱手中一疋布在这刻写句号
只想跟你终老
在地球唯独你爱我这废人
出错你都肯去忍
然而谁亦早知不会合衬
偏偏你愿意等
为何还喜欢我我这种无赖
是话你蠢还是很伟大
在座每位都将我踩口碑有多坏
但你亦永远不见怪
何必跟我我这种无赖
没大半生还是很失败
但是你死都不变心跟我笑著捱
就算我也不忍心
还喜欢我我这种无赖
是话你蠢还是很伟大
在座每位都将我踩口碑有多坏
但你亦永远不见怪
何必跟我我这种无赖
没大半生还是很失败
但是你死都不变心跟我拼命捱
换转别个也忍心偏偏作怪
