Thanks to Daniel, I am finally the proud owner the latest IPhone 3GS. It took us 1 hour of queuing and 2.5 hours of waiting in order to get the phone. So far I am quite please with the function of the phone, my only qualms will be the single mindedness of the phone. Why cant it multi task and run programs in the background? This morning something came clear while I was listening to my music on my phone. This all mighty song is Safe in a crazy world by Corrine May. Haven’t heard this song for a while or rather I haven’t been using my heart to listen to this song for a long while. You keep me flying You keep me smiling You keep me safe in a crazy world You understand me Embrace my fragility You keep me safe in a crazy world And in your arms I find the strength to believe in me again This song had been dedicated to one of my best friend. Or rather one for a long time whom I was “angry” ...

Will be heading to Phuket this Saturday and will be taking part in the Marathon there on Sunday. The race will not be an easy one as marked with numerous elevation changes along the way. At this moment, I felt that I had not been preparing for this run despite of all the efforts that I had put in these few months. I had taken up twice weekly personal training aiming to improve my performance for this marathon. With the increased workout intensity, somehow my body had caught up with me these 2 weeks. I felt so tired and believe that my performance had dip drastically. Body recovery had come to a stand still. Need to review my current regime as soon as possible. But for now, I will take a break, carbo load and enjoy myself for the trip ahead. No matter what, I will get my fat ass to that finishing line.

Last Friday, it was a day of farewells. Started with my office part time helper, his work had been terminated as the contract which he was employed under had started to scale down. In a way, I think it is pretty fateful that I ended up sitting next to him at work. He was my junior from Jurong Junior College and NTU which he will be starting school in 2 months time. Guess in my generation terms, he will be classified as a nerd in all aspects. But there are stuffs about him that is commendable; he is truthful and hard working. Anyway share some of my out dated tips about surviving in the university and even attempt to change his attitude towards life. Hope he will be able to do well especially socially in the university. O n my way to gym after work, I met one fellow colleague whom is working at the HR. Even though that we did not know which others’ name but there was this incident where I was waiting for transport and she was doing some mails distribution at the same place. ...

During the Labour Day long weekend, OT, Daniel, Shar and I went for a short trip to Malaysia, Cameron. I was in primary school when I last visited this place. All I could remember was the terrible time I had throwing up on the coach, misty playground and the cool fresh air. With much anticipation and a little apprehension of my usual prone to suffer from travel sickness. We headed for the highlands via coach leaving golden mile on the 30 th night. I was rather impressed with my ability to sleep on the coach and only waking briefly at some points of the journey. Woke up about 6am and found myself at the foot of the highlands. Drifted back into sleep and found myself arriving at the first township when I decided to sit up and enjoy the scenery. The greenery plus the greeting of cool fresh air when we alighted, ensure me that I will like this place from the start of the trip. We got to the Brichang town by 8am and had breakfast there before some tour agency tries to sell us ...

Was planning for holiday in September 09 to Vietnam – Ho Chi Minh and Da Lat and was gathering travel buddies who might be interested to join me for the trip. The response had been fine so far and there were several feedback and recommendation. I was linked to some blogs from a fellow Singaporean who had just visited the Da Lat and was dismay with her entries. Guess we tend to be overly critical and calculative over trivial stuffs. Hence we forget to appreciate with is presented before us. Personally I do not enjoy haggling for the best price, I am happy as long as I felt that I had paid a fair price. Strongly believe that any holiday will be much more pleasant minus all these calculation and comparison. May my fellow travel buddies be able to understand that and appreciate me for who I am. Considering to expand the trip to include my solo experience of the Mekong river and beyond. Let see how things turn out then. Anyone interested please feel free contact me.
