I'm back!
Someone complained that I should not flood cause people will just skim through the post and not really read it. Maybe I should just write a really long post instead of spamming. Haha. Anyway,I accidentally closed the window just now and my entry was lost. They don't even prompt me. Anyway, I have been back for more than a week. So for those of you who are so ill informed and not connected with what is going on, I am back. Back for another 3 months plus and soon I'll be off again. Off to the States that is. Once again, Uncle Pat has redeemed his mileage. So I'll be going over and helping them move to their new place. Experience winter there. Buy more cheap clothes. Crash Emory with Del. Hopefully meet up with Ben, JH and Dwin. Celebrate our 4th year together. Should be exciting.
The flight back was quite good. Sat the new Airbus. Its so spacious. At 1st when i saw it, I thought I was in the business class or something. Sat beside this Indonesian girl who really looked like Her Ching. She was rich as usual. Carrying LV and all. Watched Singapore Gaga, Ice Age 2 and The Child. Was glad to be back.
I drove quite a lot that day and nearly met into an accident. GOD was really looking out for me. Well, the 1st time was after I sent my bro to work and he even commented about my good driving. We were travelling along this lane and my dad wanted me to do a sudden lane change and I didn't stop and I ended up mounting the kerb. It was really noisy and I thought the car was damaged but thank goodness nothing happened. Was travelling so often on the highway that day and everything was so unfamiliar. Cars were speeding and didn't want to give way and it was difficult to estimate their speed. That's why I had so many near misses. One time I was occupying 2 lanes cause I turned my head too long and ended up drifting to another lane. Good thing there was no car on the other lane. And finally, I missed my blind spot and nearly hit a taxi. But surprisingly this taxi driver didn't horn or anything. I bet he must be cussing though. Haha. He deserves an award cause taxi drivers are usually assholes.
I miss the people in Atlanta. People are so much friendlier there. Service is way better but maybe its also due to the fact that they have to earn their tips. Drivers there are so much more patient and gracious. Here, everyone wants to cheong and be 1st and no one wants to give way. No wonder our future generation is turning out badly. Living in such an environment, it causes one to always want to be 1st so that we won't lose out. Its a shame really. I guess most city dwellers are like that. But its a really ugly sight!
Matriculated late. Didn't look around the booths. Bought a MacBook. Love it. Its so cool. Went to The Line at Shangri-La for lunch and it was really good. This month they were highlighting the desserts and I bet Del would have tried every single dessert there was.
Met up with JH. Tried some really funny green tea ice cream which stained my teeth (but not for long) and lips. And it made my shit green! I think they must have added alot of colouring or chemicals. Better not be poisonous JH! If not, you will pay. JH party was a success.
Pauline: Thanks for helping me contact his church mates and army friends.
Thank you for everyone who helped to make it a success by turning up and also contributing food. There was so much food that we had leftovers for almost a week. haha.
It was really difficult trying to find excuses to prevent him from coming to my house early but seeing his reaction and thereafter it was worth it. If I don't take care of my bitch, who will right?
Sorry mum for not helping you prepare. Had to go with the plan. You did great. Thank you Kor and Her Ching for preparing the food that day too. Everyone loved it. 2 Thumbs Up for effort and of course taste.
Sermon on Sat was about sneezing out the irritants in our lives and dispelling whatever is hindering us from GOD and on Sun, it was about the gift of tongues and prophesy.
Met up with Colin. Glad to see you man. Although you still look as shabby as ever. Haha. Everyone has to go through a process. You might be a process for others or they might be for you. But it will only make you stronger and I believe there is always a reason for everything.
Wed, went for NDP. The final one at the National Stadium. Matt had tickets. Thanks pal. It was great. Always feel especially patriotic when the fireworks goes off. The song this year was not bad. Sat at the top this year and had to carry umbrellas whenever the fireworks.
Thurs, wanted to go for a trip around Singapore to find all the nice food but JH had tea session with Philip Yeo and Jared had to accompany his cousins. Ended up going to his house.
Thanks Jared for helping me to bid. You are my saviour. You are the best. Had a little misunderstanding and I thought I could not bid till Friday. Good thing Jared was there to clear my shit. Haha. Was so panicky at 1st.
Qing:Thanks for all the sharing ya. You are seriously quite a perv. haha. With JH and Bin gone. And Jared is always busy with choir, you are now my new best friend. Haha. Better do your job well.
So that is just a brief summary of what I have been up to since I came back.
Oh and this semester, my modules are crazy. I'm taking econs, jap, history, geography and SEA studies. Lord help me. My geo and hist exams are on the same day somemore. I hate the seniors. I am so going to bid more furiously next sem. Thankfully I have friends taking all my mods with me. So I won't be alone. Next week is another busy week with parties and baptism and school starting. I want to give tuition, play tennis, go to the gym, join canoe and vcf or campus crusade. Can someone please tell me if we have to pay to use the gym and other sports facilities? Wonder why Club Rainbow hasn't replied yet.
Lord please grant me the motivation and help me to manage my time well.
Must start saving for Thailand too.
Bin, why you never skype me?
