Time shoots by like a M16 rifle round. 2009 will close the chapters of these 2 years of service for the country and reveal the new chapters. My heart is filled with mixed emotions. The child inside me is keeping me from advancing while the thought of being independent forces me to move on. Time to flip through recruit segment of newspapers and go for job interviews. I wanna try something challenging. Hee.

Have you ever wondered, why is it that University graduates, after spending so much effort studying, end up working for bosses who merely hold secondary education cert, not to mention their stark gap in income? Because graduates are book-smart and entrepreneurs are street-smart? Because entrepreneurs just happen to be good at doing business? Becsuse they dare to take risks? Because entrepreneurs have rich family background to tap their capital from? Well the "Singapore 'Bill Gates", Mr Sim, came from a poor background, graduated from a local polytechnic. What is your reaction everytime you see someone appear in the news due to his success when he didn't look a single bit like he was able to do so based on his characteristics, strengths, weaknesses in the past? Shocked? But not inspired because his success is so rare. You keep that thinking there's no way you can be like him. Anyway, I mentioned that I'm going to be an inventor. I will ...

Belief : confidence; faith; trust religious tenet or tenets; religious creed or faith Faith : belief that is not based on proof belief in God or in the doctrines or teachings of religion These are the few definitions gotten from dictionary.com. I grew up visiting temples and burning incense and celebrating a whole lot of Chinese festivals. Still i can't bring myself to believe in Buddhism totally. I believe in all sorts of things. I believe this earth and everything that happens is nothing but an experiment made by this group of godlike intelligence beings somewhere in the galaxy. I believe life is a miracle. I believe in unconditional love from parents and repaying them in some other ways. Perhaps these are my beliefs at the moment and they might just change the next minute. Jonathan Ng was right, we always try to impose beliefs onto others, and depending on the mental strength of the people being imposed on, they ...

Sent an army friend off to Sydney for studies on friday night. Set me thinking about friends, families, self, travelling abroad. I think alot and ask myself millions of questions which often fade away unanswered. I could have found answer to some questions if I do a little research on them but I'm just to lazy and too used to getting questions unanswered. For some questions, the answers would only reveal themselves as the chapters of my life unfold slowly. It was a perfect Sat, for a Sentosa trip. The weather was dark cloudy however the heat on the small island was still significantly hot. I could imagine the weather without those clouds and walking on the island. As Gary put it, it would be like those people walking on burning charcoal during Thaipusam. Its been a long time since I last stepped on the island, for leisure purposes. So I saw a large part of the island under construction: Universal studios, hotel villas, a artificial wave oscillator(made up this term ...

Had a super packed weekend man.. Lets see.. Friday: Serving the nation till Sat morning.. Saturday: Met up with Zupidodo, Vernon, Suyuan and Lien for cycling at Pulau Ubin. My first cycling trip "overseas"! So cool! Anyway, came upon this Ketam Quarry which looks beautiful and peaceful. Ubin is somewhat like Tekong, with lots of trees and plantation around. Great for those who have been breathing in all the exhaust and desperately need fresh air. This would be a great place. Love the coconut juice too! Cycling trails are exciting and challenging! After cycling, we met up with Meng, Eugene and Ghim for dinner and Changi V. Chatted lots of stuff about backpacking and overseas experience. Makes me feel like going too! I left the group at 830pm, went home, bathed and changed before meeting up with Jason to go Double O. Came to celebrate my army fren Kwek's bdae. Feel that Dbl O is similar to MOS, having different dancefloors, and bar etc. The ...
