Years back.

I was just flipping at this clear folder of mine with the certificates that I’ve gotten from participating in those New South Wales Mathematics, Science and English competitions when I stumbled on this verification slip.
It was for my secondary school options before PSLE. Dated 28 August 2000, my options were:
1. Anderson Secondary
2. Catholic High School
3. [...]

Wild Wild Wet

Despite turning 21 recently, I don’t seem to have grown any older – at least spiritually or the part about having fun.
My friend, Hanyuan, had gotten 8 tickets for Wild Wild Wet or Escape Theme Park as NTUC Income was having their family day today. As a bunch of goody good friends who can [...]

Broken Ankle

That’s what friendship about.
Impromptu change of plans to visit Winfred because he broke his ankle and we bought supper from Chomp Chomp to his house; instead of eating at Chomp Chomp and leaving him out.
I love my friends.

Vote

All these years, waiting and waiting and even more waiting.
Going through the education system; grooming to be a THINKER, LEADER, PIONEER.
Sitting a boat to remote island; then to a military school; then for my vocational training. Flying to India; fighting red forces.
I’ve taken responsibility – some major ones and some minor ones. Made decisions – [...]

Sir

Half a year into my ORD and out of the blue, I still receive sms-es and calls from my men back in 41 asking me (what else) for favours. Really, I’m kinda amused by these because of a few reasons.
1. I can’t help them anymore; as much as I could when I was their officer, [...]

Magmas

Yesterday, my group of friends and I went to Magmas, a German restaurant, for dinner. My good friend Sean was giving us a treat at this ‘ah-tas’ restaurant and wooh, the prices on the menu made me felt underdressed. Anyways, the ambience was great and frankly speaking, I think I should attend some culinary tasting [...]

Electric Blue

If a boy had a chance
A chance with someone like you
Are you gonna break his heart?
Let him cry for the moon?
Are you hiding somewhere behind those eyes?
I just freeze
Every time you see through me
And it’s all over you
Electric blue
On my knees
Help me, baby
Tell me, what can I do?
Electric blue
I just freeze
Every time you see through [...]

Singapore Flyer

First, you gotta turn your head left and see the photos – I have no idea why they have been rotated anticlockwise.
Anyway, I went on my maiden trip up the Singapore Flyer today with a bunch of pretty girls (whistles please, thank you).
Being a acrophobic, the idea of being suspended up in the sky isn’t [...]

Thank you.

It was great seeing everyone at the same venue. And definitely it feels good to be the ONE throughout the night.
But then again, I feel that I’m much better at organizing events and making sure everything goes on smoothly, rather than participating for the whole procedure. I would want to be in control of everything [...]

With somewhat relief

They have been clogging my shelf space for quite a long time, in fact, for a near 2.5 years, they have been sitting on my shelf, lingering there, tempting and disappointing me.
I tried, and tried again, but it still eludes me.
My results ain’t that fantastic, nor are they that bad. Average when you compare against [...]
