♥ 9:11 PM
i think this is the first time i book out very early. abt 6 left tekong and board the ferry back to singapore. but the downside to booking out early is that on sunday i have to book in REAL REAL early at 5.45pm. not something that i am looking forward to. probably to prepare us for monday 24km route march.
but well another 12 more days and i will pop! again the downside to it is i have to go back or stay back one more day to go for my make up grenade test which i miss. argh while my friends are out there enjoying their block leave i am suffering. still thinking how to miss it. however if my friends are all going back i will go back and join them and throw grenade and leave tekong for one last time sept 11.
i was very angry on wed though. firstly i was at medical centre for medical review. the transport already very slow and we had to wait for hours and we did not had lunch. wanted to go canteen buy some stuffs but my sergeant don't allow. well nonetheless thank God we saw him as he arrange for us to have lunch at ladang.
was messaging my ex class mate and i don get it what joy do ppl get when they link you up with another person. i was kindda angry because i detest such thing. there is no truth in all these why still keep on linking me with another person. when i tell you to stop and you don't, that is when i will jus do anything and say anything to make you stop it. i remember that my church friends and good friends like to do this but at least they don do it anymore! so kindly pls stop all these before you really fustrate me.
msg van and pour out my frustration because she have first hand experience. she along with other of my close friends use to do all this but after knowing how serious i am in this matter they have stop. probably shld jus drop my fren van's number and let her share her story. or maybe my other good friends can relate their stories as well.
thinking how i shld spend my night and tmrw before i book in on sunday. maybe go supper later. tmrw probably hang out. sunday go church and serve before heading home to rest.

A Letter to My Son, on Starting Out In Life
Dear Seth,
You’re only three years old, and at this point in your life you can’t read, much less understand what I’m going to try to tell you in this letter. But I’ve been thinking a lot about the life that you have ahead of you, about my life so far as I reflect on what I’ve learned, and about my role as a dad in trying to prepare you for the trials that you will face in the coming years.
You won’t be able to understand this letter today, but someday, when you’re ready, I hope you will find some wisdom and value in what I share with you.
You are young, and life has yet to take its toll on you, to throw disappointments and heartaches and loneliness and struggles and pain into your path. You have not been worn down yet by long hours of thankless work, by the slings and arrows of everyday life.
For this, be thankful. You are at a wonderful stage of life. You have many wonderful stages of life still to come, but they are not without their costs and perils.
I hope to help you along your path by sharing some of the best of what I’ve learned. As with any advice, take it with a grain of salt. What works for me might not work for you.
Life Can Be CruelThere will be people in your life who won’t be very nice. They’ll tease you because you’re different, or for no good reason. They might try to bully you or hurt you.
There’s not much you can do about these people except to learn to deal with them, and learn to choose friends who are kind to you, who actually care about you, who make you feel good about yourself. When you find friends like this, hold on to them, treasure them, spend time with them, be kind to them, love them.
There will be times when you are met with disappointment instead of success. Life won’t always turn out the way you want. This is just another thing you’ll have to learn to deal with. But instead of letting these things get you down, push on. Accept disappointment and learn to persevere, to pursue your dreams despite pitfalls. Learn to turn negatives into positives, and you’ll do much better in life.
You will also face heartbreak and abandonment by those you love. I hope you don’t have to face this too much, but it happens. Again, not much you can do but to heal, and to move on with your life. Let these pains become stepping stones to better things in life, and learn to use them to make you stronger.
But Be Open to Life Anyway Yes, you’ll find cruelty and suffering in your journey through life … but don’t let that close you to new things. Don’t retreat from life, don’t hide or wall yourself off. Be open to new things, new experiences, new people.
You might get your heart broken 10 times, but find the most wonderful woman the 11th time. If you shut yourself off from love, you’ll miss out on that woman, and the happiest times of your life.
You might get teased and bullied and hurt by people you meet … and then after meeting dozens of jerks, find a true friend. If you close yourself off to new people, and don’t open your heart to them, you’ll avoid pain … but also lose out on meeting some incredible people, who will be there during the toughest times of your life and create some of the best times of your life.
You will fail many times but if you allow that to stop you from trying, you will miss out on the amazing feeling of success once you reach new heights with your accomplishments. Failure is a stepping stone to success.
Life Isn’t a CompetitionYou will meet many people who will try to outdo you, in school, in college, at work. They’ll try to have nicer cars, bigger houses, nicer clothes, cooler gadgets. To them, life is a competition — they have to do better than their peers to be happy.
Here’s a secret: life isn’t a competition. It’s a journey. If you spend that journey always trying to impress others, to outdo others, you’re wasting your journey. Instead, learn to enjoy the journey. Make it a journey of happiness, of constant learning, of continual improvement, of love.
Don’t worry about having a nicer car or house or anything material, or even a better-paying job. None of that matters a whit, and none of it will make you happier. You’ll acquire these things and then only want more. Instead, learn to be satisfied with having enough — and then use the time you would have wasted trying to earn money to buy those things … use that time doing things you love.
Find your passion, and pursue it doggedly. Don’t settle for a job that pays the bills. Life is too short to waste on a job you hate.
Love Should Be Your Rule If there’s a single word you should live your life by, it should be this: Love. It might sound corny, I know … but trust me, there’s no better rule in life.
Some would live by the rule of success. Their lives will be stressful, unhappy and shallow.
Others would live by the rule of selfishness — putting their needs above those of others. They will live lonely lives, and will also be unhappy.
Still others will live by the rule of righteousness — trying to show the right path, and admonishing anyone who doesn’t live by that path. They are concerned with others, but in a negative way, and in the end will only have their own righteousness to live with, and that’s a horrible companion.
Live your life by the rule of love. Love your spouse, your children, your parents, your friends, with all of your heart. Give to them what they need, and show them not cruelty nor disapproval nor coldness nor disappointment, but only love. Open your soul to them.
Love not only your loved ones, but your neighbors … your coworkers … strangers … your brothers and sisters in humanity. Offer anyone you meet a smile, a kind word, a kind gesture, a helping hand.
Love not only neighbors and strangers … but your enemy. The person who is cruelest to you, who has been unkind to you … love him. He is a tortured soul, and most in need of your love.
And most of all, love yourself. While others may criticize you, learn not to be so hard on yourself, to think that you’re ugly or dumb or unworthy of love … but to think instead that you are a wonderful human being, worthy of happiness and love … and learn to love yourself for who you are.
Finally, know that I love you and always will. You are starting out on a weird, scary, daunting, but ultimately incredibly wonderful journey, and I will be there for you when I can. Godspeed.
Love,
Your Dad
can't remember where i read this letter from. i think what the author wrote is kindda inspiring. not sure is he a christian but certainly he has good values that he embrace deeply and want to pass it on to his child. we heard the msg from pst many times even the callous on our hand can remember it. but how many of us really carry it out.
slept very late yesterday ard 3 plus close to 4am. my twin bro woke me up ask me to send him to camp. upon reaching home took a quite nap before i wake up to prepare to meet up with yh and teach him how to swim. in the end because of some ns thingy that he need to settle he realised he could not make it. and weiming was at tamp gym decide to head down. don wanna ps him and leave him there alone.
upon reaching there, we decided not to swim which was a correct decision because abt 20 mins later it started to rain. a wet wet day. decide to have lunch together while shang, van, glenn and shunfu joined us from expo. jus enjoyed talking to them because we can be so free just speak out everything and no need to worry about anything.
after lunch we decide to head to city area there to chill and have dinner together. went to some stores to look for a suitable running shoes and shoes. so far none caught my eyes probably after i pop i will head to queenstown and see can a decent running shoes. hopefully next year when i go for army half marathon i will be able to complete the whole marathon. but first i need to cont to train myself.
dinner was at this indonesian restaurant "Ayam Penyet Ria" at lucky plaza. brought them there to makan because char intro me to that place months ago. after dinner head down to far east than to heeren before we make our individual way home.
tmrw morning will be joining dan, hx, van, sher and i think glenn to play badminton at tamp sports hall. i must say they are a group of fantastic friends! initially they wanted to play at 10 but i need to be at pasir ris at 12.15 to prepare for book in. they compromise and shift the timing to 8am so i can join them before i book in. really enjoying my long weekend. hopefully this week is also friday book out!
saw this backpacker at city area today made me think of backpacking also. sigh if only i can find a companion that is very steady and don back out last min or etc i will fulfill my wish of going oversea for a short hol. was thinking during my 11 days of block leave go but scare i will be called back for guard duty. i think the next best timing would be end of year when i clear my leave. mean while need to save more so can fulfill my dream to go oversea.
tonight is a good night did not expect anything but God is good!
♥ 1:27 AM
quite a depressing week in camp. a bit home sick. maybe that was due to last week only got to spend time in singapore for less than 24hrs. felt quite miserable in camp.
monday had this BAC test. went for it pass the test before i fall out of the next activity which is SOC to ensure i can do my 16km route march the next day.
because i was afraid that i might have to rt for 16km route march if i fail to attend so postpone going to see the mo. the last time i did my route march i did until 8km and miss the 12km. thought that they would only allow me to walk 12km only but thank God manage to complete my 16km route march. thus i am able to do the 24km route march on 1 sept.
thursday we had OC nite. throughout the week we were practicing for this nite. did something like stomp/strikeforce. the whole OC nite kindda fun because we get to enjoy and sit back and relax. after all the platoon finish performing results came in and we won. sergeant and storeman went up to perform as well. is a night of fun. the night snack provided was fantastic probably the best meal i ever consume in tekong!
another thing that got me quite down was because i was suppose to only book out on sat morning. felt like i was being duped by my company because they sought of "promise" us that we will have a long weekend this week.
as i mention earlier, last week we were out for less than 24hrs and abt 20 plus ppl did not book in. news came in that all excuse, attend c and a group of ppl who went to cmpb on monday to retake their test are to be confine and book out on sat because we miss soc.
abt 5 hours before we book out this group of ppl who went to cmpb were allow to book out on friday. i went to look for my pc to ask how come i am being confine as well. i walk out of the platoon office disappointed and super angry.
this is wad my pc told me. can you pls stay back? i need someone to be a digger for the rt soc on sat. in my heart i was like who wants to stay back one more day beside i am excuse from wearing boots. so i told him i can't wear boots as well and my pc sigh and gave me this sian look and started to look for another reasons to convince me why i need to stay behind.
he went on to tell me that he felt that OC decision to make the grp of ppl stayed back was unfair and beside they ALL PASS their soc and went on to say is OC decision for all the excuse and attend c ppl to stay back.
when he made the last statement i can't rebut because OC is the biggest in my company. but i was super angry because he lied to me. monday was the first rundown for soc and the grp of ppl who went to cmpb did not even attend it so how does he determine that all of them pass. secondly if he say is OC made the decision for them to stay back and he felt it was unfair for them to stay back how come he can overwrite his decision and yet can't overwrite for me?
my whole platoon felt very unfair for me because i literally confine for no reason. i can't participate jus wake up next morning at 5.30 to sit down there and wait to book out. my friend micah who was attend c on sunday during lunch time apologise to me because somehow due to the high attend c rate to cover up the whole thing i got confine for no reason.
every night i prayed that God will change the whole situation ever since news came out on tuesday abt the confinement. i really thank God for very good platoon mates, platoon sergeant and sergeant.
my friends decide to help me talk to my platoon sergeant who to me is the best sergeant in my company. after the whole talk he went down to talk to my pc. my pc still refuse to change his mind. aft dinner, while i retire to bunk and seeing all of them happily waiting to book out i was quite sian lying on bed.
did not know that some of my friends who were confine, platoon sergeant and sergeant were downstair still fighting for me to book out together with them. abt 15 mins before we were require to go down and fall in, my sergeant call my friend to ask me to change and prepare for book out.
God really turned the whole situation for me. i feel so bless! i really have fantastic outstanding friends and sergeants. despite them having to stay back they still help me fight for my case. really without their help i would only be able to book out on sat morning.
another 17 days and i will finally POP and leave tekong. thank God my company is the 4th company to book out on that day. will leave tekong at abt 6 plus 7pm.
attended svc today at the same time support shang for his sot grad. saw pam today as well along with the others like yh, sj, weiming seems like quite long since i saw them. saw this guy from platoon 1 in my company not sure is he a church member anot or is he here to support his friend for sot grad. after knowing another guy from platoon 1 talking abt him i got a very good impression of him. maybe he is the one from my zone. not too sure abt it.
after svc went over to alvin's place to attend his early birthday party. hang ard till 11.20 before leaving the place to head for home. actually had plans to go watch death race with ch but because there is still a ban on the merc can't really use the car. but manage to test drive it for the first time jus now. the car has a good feel but i hate the car haha. not quite user friendly since is mostly computerise and the gear is place at the side, not your usual gear.
tmrw will be going to jog and swim with yh, ch and weiming at 11.30. thought of going to catch money no enough 2 at expo but decide against it. so probably will be spending time with shang for lunch before meeting up with glenn and van to hang out. more or less thats my plan for tmrw.
probably if i have the time i wanna go shop for new stuffs. realise that i need new belt, jeans and shirt since i shed quite alot of weight in army.
rest up before booking in on monday noon. really enjoy this long weekend i have.
will officially move over to sat svc on the first week of sept. hopefully aft my ns cg will go back to friday and not on the weekend.
i think this post from jianrong is very good so i am gonna paste it down here...
"I was just logging in to blog about another mundane day of my mundane life in this mundane blog when something interesting jumped out of the main page of wordpress. I was startled because I had given full credibility to this issue and to be decieved by it is definitely saddening.
I am talking about Mike Guglielmucci’s testimony of suffering from a terminal stage cancer for 2 years. If you do not know who is he, just go youtube and type ‘healer’. Yes, he’s the composer of this hit song in the christian worship community and has gained multiple folds of fame and probably fortune through this song as Hillsong recorded it on their latest album, and THAT is a huge platform for anybody to be big, considering Hillsong is like the Timbaland or Rihanna of the secular music scene.
So what’s the deal about? The deal is that he released a statement saying that his claims about being terminally sick with cancer is untrue for the past 2 years. So that means all the videos of him on youtube wearing all those horribly painful looking nose tubes and oxygen masks is all just a facade.
So apparently there’s alot of different responses to this issue, I’m not going to elaborate or give my thought onto this because frankly I have no definite view on this issue but you can read the views of many people just go using Google. It’s a pity that such thing is to happen but all we can do is to pray and pray.
But what I feel about this is that the credibility of integrity of the church is definitely damaged. and it probably takes time for the people to get over this and move on. For me I feel that I have been duped, as I have used the song a few times for my own healing.
However, what I believe that is still credible after all this hoo ha is that the authenticity of the message he preached and the power of the song still rings true. Someone once said that the true authenticity of worship is not found in the name of the composer or writer but is found in the heart of the singer. So regardless of whether the song is written with decietful purposes to gain personal gain and fame, I believe that nevertheless the lyrics of the song still has genuine value to bless people.
I don’t really blame him for doing this because being a ‘celebrity’ in the christian world, these ‘celebrities’ are constantly under the scrutinisation of their detractors, waiting for them to fall and make mistakes and blow everything out to the public to laugh and derail them. But how would you feel if you, a normal person, having to live a life where everything you do, including your poo poo sessions where you moan and groan is under the watchful eyes of skeptical people? How would you feel if all the secret sins that you do in your life while portraying a holy life in front of your friends get exposed in the Straits Times main page for the whole of Singapore to see? It could be anything ranging from pornography to God knows what you do at home! LOL.
Doesn’t that feel awful? These ‘celebrities’ are also human, and as such, they will fall. But the righteous will fall 7 times and pick themselves up 7 times too. So all I can say is to pray pray and pray for him to have genuine repentance and remorse. Which makes me wonder about my own church. Whether does my church contain some secret sins too?
Like embezzling of the tithes and offerings of the people to build golden taps in their own homes etc? You can’t blame me for bringing this piece of sad sin closer to home but it has definitely made me realise that even the holiest person on this planet Earth can too fall to sin. But the beauty of man’s sin is the redemptive power of Christ that he have graciously given to us!
I mean, God could just pick MIke by his shirt collar and throw him into the pits of hell for doing this sin, but he did not. Because if he did, he needs more than just 2 fingers to pick every single person in this earth and throw them into hell. God is a good God, that’s what I believe. I’ll probably have the VIP lava suite if God is to do that LOL."

celeb ch birthday last sunday after svc. went to changi airport fish & co. glad that the whole thing was carried out smoothly and he was surprise that we were actually down there celeb for him.
book out yesterday night and soon in a couple of hours i will i will be booking in again. feeling very sian right now. less then 24 hours out here!
this whole week did nth at camp. while the rest went for sit test i was at company line with the rest who did not make it for the out field. can say that this week very relaxing for me as i spend everyday slacking in camp. one thing i enjoy though is getting to make new friends with the guys from other platoon.
even though pop is in 3 weeks but i don feel anything. how i wish is the reverse i will be ord in 3 weeks. the feeling of going back to tekong is so sian. hope that this 3 weeks will pass by soon.
upon booking out, went home to take a short rest before picking glenn and van up. went to 85 to celeb glenn's birthday and also "feast". gordon joined us as well. thought can surprise him but well failed. well nonetheless glad he enjoyed himself.
why i say feast was because on friday and sat i only ate sponge cake and bread for lunch and dinner. quite pathetic. so set my mind to actually go and feast and have something good to eat.
went to serve this morning, i quite enjoy serving today. there is a new work flow but the team was able to kindda deliver the svc smoothly. looking forward to serve in 2 weeks.
i pray that this week is friday book out and monday afternoon book in. if that is true i will be so happy. time need to pass faster! wanna quickly pop and get into a unit. hopefully into a slack unit.
shall go and run right now. probably next week go swim as well if i don tio guard duty on weekend.

♥ 9:25 PM
just came back from tekong. another out field to look forward this coming week from thursday to sat. sigh very SIAN ah!!!!!!!! don't really want to hear field camp this 2 words anymore and also must add in shell scrap.
had ippt the day before field camp started. manage to maintain my standard and cont to improve on my running time by slashing another min off my previous timing. soon abt to hit my personal best already. just to prepare for my 2.4 went to run 20 rounds around my company line non-stop. shall make it a habit to do this each time before ippt.
did rear scout on the first day of our field camp. i think being rear scout during route march quite fun because you can go on your own pace and also get to interact with your sergeant. got to know my sergeant better during this whole route march on the first day. but i must say is a killer this 8 click route march. withe extra items quite tiring. first time feel my left hand went numb during the march.
straight after the route march a few mins of rest we started setting up our tents. very troublesome and i think probably my platoon was the last one to finish setting up. first day can say a bit shiong.
2nd day we had our movement drills. this day quite relaxing. after lesson we were break up to platoon level then to section level. basically we jus carry out our movement drills. basically we just sit down under the tree hide under the shade and just talk to our sergeant who is really a very nice guy. when night time came we had our night test which i think everybody pass.
3rd day was just more movement drill and also carry out urban operation. also quite a relaxing day sit inside the building have lunch talk to sergeant and rest. on this day my friends and myself we did something which cannot be revealed. bring a little thrill into your life but also put fear in your life also. if ever caught thats it for us. we will be hanged haha.
however 4th day we needed to pack up and move to another camp site. the tactical route march is a killer. the order of move for that day was platoon 1, 2, 3 and lastly 4. as the last platoon, we were proning down for probably an hour, high kneel for 30 mins run 2.4 with our rifle and LBV just waiting for the front platoon to move.
probably half way there we were finally allowed to break from the company and just tactical march in platoon level. in between we were given rest and time to fill up our bottle. everybody was totally tired because as the last platoon we got to wait for signal before we move off. by the then the platoons in front will be already walking so far front we have to double up jus to keep up with them. thank God our OC is a nice person who really take care of the recruits here.
rested a bit at the new camp site before we started on our fresh ration before we start our shell scrap (not sure is this spelling). well is super tough no wonder grave digger earn alot i guess. started at about 2.20 finished it in 4 hours. but not very standard needed to touch up a bit here and there. this 4 hours under the blazing sun is a killer. many times you will feel like just giving up and not cont. but the thought of no place to sleep in keep spurring me to cont with my digging. rewarded myself with a can of ice latte of course is not chill.
when night fall i was so tired went to change immediately and sleep in my shell scrap. that day had to wake up at 4am to do sentry duty. nth much to guard quite slack also.
5th day of field camp i was the enemy during our movement test. had 400 blank rounds at my disposal. quite fun to be enemy but also because the commanders in charge of the station make my life easy also as compared to some of my friends. the test took very long!!! i only manage to finish mine like close to 5 i think. by then it was starting to drizzle. quickly make my way back to camp site because i was feeling dehydrated. suddenly it started to pour very heavily.
thank God for good buddy. my malay buddy help me to candy wrap my field pack while i was still making my way back to camp site. this day was really really really very bad. instructions were not pass down well. at the end of the day i was soaking wet very wet. OC made the decision to leave the camp site for a new camp site to turn in the for the day.
upon arrving at the new camp site we were told to lay down the groundsheet cause we are sleeping there we no shelter. there were lightning still. we were told to change out powder bath and jus prepare for RO and slp. the next thing we know we were told to pack up cause there is a change of camp site again. quite frustrating! move over to the next camp site lay down ground sheet. by then i was already very tired and i see no point in changing out and also i have no more dry clothes.
upon reaching there took out my boots change to sandals i went to sleep. probably 30 - 45 mins i was ask to wake up and prepare to fall in for RO and water parade. after this i was back lying down preparing to slp when i got news that they are planning to shift camp site again. by then it was like 10 already.
news came and it was confirmed we are going back to company line to slp. rush to change back and leave the camp site. started pouring heavily again. soaking wet again! upon reaching company line i was already very tired and very angry. RO was fast and by 2310 i guess i was already lying down preparing to slp with my dirty muddy uniform.
that night probably is the worst time to slp. the whole place was so cold. woke up in the middle of the night to look for my gortex jacket. even with that on, my hands were shaking my teeth were clattering. remind me when i was in japan for hol.
when dawn came everybody was happy because that was the last day of field camp and we will be booking out. last day had only BIC to look forward to. the course was tough had to leopard crawl back crawl. thank God i manage to finish it.
spend the whole day in company line cleaning up the store items and cleaning my rifle. another frustrating time because all of us were looking forward to go and bathe after 6 days of no bathing. but we were made to rush like mad to get ready to leave rocky hill. some of my friends did not even manage to bathe while i caught a quick shower before falling in for last parade.
generally i think for me this is the first time camping out. i am not those very outdoor type of person. but i must really thank God that i manage to finish this 6 days. first camp site everyday i wake up with a very sore back ache as the ground was uneven and rocky. last day at the first camp site 3 ppl sleep in one tent. is really a nice exp to get down and dirty and actually sleep at your own shell scrap and thinking i actually dig this whole thing up myself.
also during my 6 days there i think or rather i am very sure my platoon is the most bless because we did not get much tekan from our commanders. listening to stories like how tough and fierce your commanders will be during field camp really will bring some fear. but i think my field camp is quite easy. all those times when i was tired out was because of the activities and not because of any tekan from my commanders. looking at other platoon i thank God that i am in platoon 4.
also during my stay there my malay buddy very good. despite diff religion he always respect me when i ask him that can i pray and all that. other then all the rash, brusies, injuries God really protected me there.
the combat ration is really wow cannot make it except for the porridge. this 6 days camp lose abt 3-4kg. becoming more and more skinnier like some POW like that.
reached back home abt 9 plus. had dinner rest up a bit before deciding to catch mummy 3 with ch, gordon and van. wanted to catch the 1.45am show at cathay but could not. end up watching the 3am show at cineleisure.
i must say this movie is not very fantastic as compare to the first 2. quite dry the story line. ch was already sleeping. shut my eyes during the yeti fight. tired out by the field camp. well the only redeeming point of the whole movie is probably at the end where the fighting took place.
after movie play a few rounds of bridge in the car before we made our way to bugis mcdonald for breakfast follow by some more bridge and dai dee. kindda enjoy the fellowship even though i was extremely tired. hard to like find ppl go out for late night movie and then stay back for breakfast and just fellowship.
by the time i reached home it was close to 8 decide not to slp. read the papers and surf the net. abt 10.30 i was out of my hse again to go run errands with my mom for family dinner. at the same time had lunch with her and my twin bro. went down to orchard area to get everything.
aft that went down to tiong bahru to get lunch for my big bro and dad. from there made our way back. was behind the wheel the whole day. on my part i knew i was very tired. but i did not sound out. so at about shenton area nearing ecp entrance my eyes shut and i lost focus. ram into the curb almost ram into the side railing. that woke me up. first time such thing happen. thank God that the car behind was quite far and after that i was fast to quickly drive off.
Thank God nth serious happen to my mom or brother. really thank God for HIs protection. thank God also never damage the car as well. upon reaching home went to take a nap. woke up at abt 7 for dinner together with my family.
looking back the years i think my family really bonded alot as me and my brothers got older. even though we have our own plan and all that but we try to make it for family gathering when there is one. kindda weird to say this but i find that as the year goes by we are becoming more and more like a family shld be!
had plans to run after dinner but upon looking at my feet, realise my feets are bleeding. got foot rot, still thinking whether anot to book in tmrw anot or go get mc.
looks like now also not much good movie. i think the next few book out i won't be spending much time in the cinema unless there are good movies.
need to mention this..happy birthday Ryan Tay Chai Huat! will make it up to you. nowadays in camp hard to find time to spend your birthday. hope you have a great belated birthday!
well if can wake up early tmrw shall go and jog before i attend the 10am svc.
celeb ch birthday last sunday after svc. went to changi airport fish & co. glad that the whole thing was carried out smoothly and he was surprise that we were actually down there celeb for him.
