Yet another scary saturday and sunday
I woke up fresh on Saturday, because i chiong tuition from 9-6pm on Friday. That is equivalent to 3 groups of students. Well its good money to sustain a slacking bummer like me. Writing this for the sake of updating those who bother abt my whereabouts on Friday wahaha....
Saturday, ok, lets see, i woke up at 11am planning to meet felicia for a swim in yishun. I managed to bluff her here on the pretense of assuring that i will send her home after the day. So the plan was to have a swim, then retrieved her laptop which i collected on her behalf on Friday evening in Sim Lim, had Sakae Sushi Dinner then watch 'Secret' on some DBS credit card movie voucher
***************************************
Scary Incident Number One:
***************************************
After the swim in the afternoon, i quickly scamper through small kids to the changing room. I didn't really check the cubicles and wadded into one of the vacant ones. Somewhere in my brain i felt that there was something wrong. This surge of queasiness ran through me. I undo this freaking tough knot that i made for my swimming trunks ( damn its hard to undo, and i seriously need a new pair of trunks ). Something in my head called me to look down behind me.
Blardy hell! I saw someone trying to peep at me from the gap ( below the partition seperating the cubicles ). I felt this ultimate violation and gave a shot at that man. Freaking shit pervert! It is a middle aged man. He must have rushed out of the cubicle beside me. OR SO I THOUGHT...
When i started showering, i couldn't get over that particular scene. The puddles of water from the shower head formed a slight but visible image of that someone trying to inch closer to the partition, as though getting ready to bend down to get another freebie.
I slammed my left shin against the partition. I was only a few second short of yelling when i finally realized that he seemingly disappeared.
I finished what i had to do, and stormed out of the changing room. I think i loved seeing pretty gals too much to ever imagine myself stooping to this kind of pervert act.
***************************************
Scary Incident Number Two
***************************************
As the title suggested, it was a scary Saturday and Sunday. So now is the sunday part.
For those who aint realizing our Chinese festivals, it is 7th Month on Lunar Calender.
The few of us had dinner in Parkway Parade after our skating session. Today susi joined us. She wasnt that ready for the skating tracks so it gave me a good reason to stay at the rink to play cone tricks with slalomer Jerome. Was expecting more friends to come but most of them last minute got commissioned as pilots. Let's not talk about them here. HAHA.
We were quite eager to end our over-coffee-chit-chat session early, so that we could be home before the 鬼门开. By 10, bus 966 ended its service at woodlands, and i so decided to continue slaloming with dear bro at the outskirts of admiralty mrt station. I had so much fun until the lightning streaks darted the skies SO OFTEN that i felt as if many people were taking pictures of our slalom moves with flash. We had no choice but to stop everything when the wind carried a light blanket of drizzle onto the smooth granite tiles, making it slippery.
Still having the urge to complete what i was trying, i ordered bro to keep the cones and head for the MSCP on the 7th level. This MSCP was located behind admiralty mrt station. The time was 1110pm.
When we slipped into the lift, there were 2 more people in it. One slightly early thirties lady and another old man. I presume it was her father or something. The doors shut right in front of us, but for some strange reason, the lift just wont ascend.
Ok, you all know that there's this 'outside' door specific to each level and another mechanical door that you see when you are in the lift. Apparently this 'outside' door couldnt be fully shut. All 4 of us saw the door open and shut for at least 3 times i think.
The old man decided to force both doors within the lift shut when it was about to close, hoping that somehow the 'outside' door would close fully. By some weird reason it worked. And the lift moved up, bringing the old man and the lady to the 3rd level. It was then i realised i forgot to press the 7th level button.
Gosh the lift didnt wait for my fingers and moved down, back to level one instead. And then everything repeated itself again. This time we saw the door open and shut for more than 4 times. Something in me told me to stop trying to go up to the 7th level and we both in the end walked out puzzled and helplessly.
When i reached home, dear called. She told me something rather disturbing. According to her grandma, she (grandma) received a call from a guy looking for felicia at about 7odd pm. That 'guy' addressed himself as SIANG PING ( MY GOODNESS THAT IS ME @#$#!%!#$#@). This "SIANG PING" continued a short 5min conversation with her grandma before she put the phone down.
As i am finishing this post, my left eye is twitching. Tmd. I am freakkking scared.....

A fearful Wednesday and Thursday
TEAM MICRO slide boys were due to fly off on National Day( Thursday ) for their competition in shanghai, so i somehow found myself skating with them at the MSCP on a wednesday evening, to see them before they go off. Braden's Dad was kind enough to let me go on a spin on his TRITON 4 BY 4. It's a OUT-OF-THIS-WORLD experience for me as i thought i was cruising on 60km /hr ( when actually i was on 110km / hr) along Gambas Avenue.
When i was skating on my way home, i felt lonely and lousy. I was subconsciously cursing to myself because i had always wanted to do a sport to that level of commitment( Those boys are representing Singapore fyi ). If ONLY i had been more of a sports person while in secondary school......
In another perspective, maybe i wont enjoy it, cos that kind of commitment calls for training, training and more training. So in conclusion, better to stick to sports at a leisure and recreational level.
I had a late night on Wednesday, sending dad for a body chk up in SGH after he complainted of pain near the kidney area. I was tired, but glad that the diagnose results indicate no signs of diabetes and any other nonsense. Dad is a responsible man to himself, in a sense that he doesnt smoke, gamble or drink much. Guess i got that in my genes as well.
By the time i got back, it was close to 4am, Thursday Morning. Mom and Dad left for their Malacca trip the next morning ( they also barely had a few hours of rest ). I had to force my mind awake to join Loki and J in Tampines for a skate sharing session. Its certainly good to bring myself back to a beginner's point of view for skating. When you share with people the skills , you would concurrently remind yourself not to adopt those bad and lazy habits. That's humbling and refreshing. And probably that's the only reason that saw me through a SUPER ZZZ Thursday morning skating for close to 3 hours.
I did not head back for home after that gruelling KEEP-MYSELF-AWAKE-AFTER-2HR-SLEEP session. I drove straight down to Sim Lim Square to help dearie source for a good laptop. She was looking for a small LCD laptop that's light and portable. With a mindset of a slightly-more-than-2k budget, hunting for the product aint easy. I breathed hard with every pace i took, feeling the effects of the late night monster consuming my health point. When i was finally out of Sim Lim, i wondered how i endured through the ocean of people and how they tried to ambush me in all directions with outstretching arms holding flyers.
Both me and dearie had the tastiest satay cum ji char Dinner in west coast market. As to how i drove the car from Queen Street to Clementi i could not comprehend. I felt so mechanical, running low on attention on my way back home. Certainly wasnt in the best condition to drive a car if you asked me. The ultimate sense of relief overcome me as i pull the handbrake in the MSCP beside my house. Finally!
As i sat in front of my terminal penning this entry, i took occasional glances at my left ankle. IT apparently seemed swollen again. And i felt really intimidated by it. Maybe it was gonna stay this size forever ( since i had an incision on that area and my main arteries might have been 'adjusted' to run along this area)or maybe the cyst is growing again! I dont really want to think about it again. Really hated the 8K surgery bills back in January and the immobility after that. Most importantly i couldnt skate for more than 2 months! Please, let this swelling ankle issue be a thing of the past. I seriously dont want to see myself going back to the doctors with a VERY big ankle asking for help.
I have been in dire situations many times in my life. And certainly i hate seeing myself in this kind of plight.

Losing it again
A few days back, i put together my ipod and my newly reformatted laptop to charge power.
I was wondering if i could import my current 480++ songs from my ipod to my laptop using I tunes, and proceed to download the application from internet.
One good thing about itunes is that it will automatically synchronise the music library in your laptop to your ipod. But this turn out to be a double edge feature because i have NO MUSIC IN MY LIBRARY TO BEGIN WITH! Subconsciously i trigger happy on my mouse and click and run the application. Result : NO MORE MUSIC!!!! HO SEI LIAO!
Life didnt really change much after that. I had survived on these 480++ songs since the beginning of 2007. Those songs were pretty much the only companions i had while i was sitting on my chair in hall working my 3mths away on FYP. So long brudders. Right now i am waiting for new imports from Monkey. His sister has a good range of music. Well to be precise, its A HUGE RANGE.
I am waiting, Monkey. Hee....

Convocation pictures 27th July 2007
Chionging another new post again! That really shows how blardy free i am.
Let me present to you the lead character of the day. Sadly, its not me.

People are moving around with convocation bears, while i have my photo-magnet piglet!

So, let us begin the photo gallery.
This is my mom and dad, with me, AND THE PIGLET
Susi cannot tahan the overwhelming charm of the piglet and so requested holding it while taking a shot with me, parade commander, fakie and rae
Even my dear fakie cannot resist the temptations of holding my piglet. Oh well...
I have to honour my chapteh shifu with the piglet as well
The present remnants of NTU ODAC 9th Management Committee
Monkey felt the force of the piglet too. And so it happened
Now, the estastic moment has come
Oh yeah!
These are my fellow comrades who saw me through hell. And i really thank them for making me survive my ordeal.
The real moment we had been waiting for. Throw EM OUT THE WINDOW!!!!!!
More photos with non SCE gang. This one features Peiling aka Justice Bao and the humble goat
This photo is so drama. I really wondered when it was actually taken. Show casing the man who gave me a taste of an assistant teacher life in Julia Gabriels
This photo is dedicated to my final sem hall 11 table grace gang. Thanks for ensuring that i wasnt rotting behind my hostel doors!
Oh gosh, how can i forget my pet gecko?
For your info, me and pet gecko came a real long way. From the city of HCM
To the temples of Angkor
The gal who made everything possible ( the piglet that is )
Convocate loh! Good bye NTU. I wont miss you hahaha!

Post Uni Blues
Right now, i am awaiting for many things to happen.
I was wondering when i would be asked to go down and sign the papers for my job offer. A friday ago i was told by HR that i finally got a job offer from CAAS as an Air Traffic Controller. That alone thrilled me lots. There was a one year training course before my probationary term as an ATC officer commences. Renumeration? Shant discuss it here. Ha.
I was talking with callsign 29-er about my job offer just last night. And then it struck me: THAT MAYBE I MAY NOT BE ABLE TO MAKE IT FOR IN CAMP THIS COMING DECEMBER! It is definitely not a cause for joy ( unlike most of my men, who would have felt OTHERWISE ). I wont want to make up my ICT with some strangers whom i've never CHIONG SUA with before. Time will pass by miserably then... gosh.
Many people have been asking me how i have been( and i bet they know that i am slacking my life away actually ). To be precise here is my typical day( after getting the job offer):
1)I stopped looking for jobs, feeling contented that i am offered with one that is really not IT related.
2)I will often wake up with strained eyes because usually the mid morning sun rays would have penetrated my soft and vulnerable eye lids.
3)I started hardcore web surfing, looking at cars, houses, chapteh know -how, and friendster.
4)I started picking up my long lost passion i.e plant aquarium. Just went down to clementi fish shop to recce the market rates for a CO2 electric generator as well as pL lights for water plants.
5)Called up DBS on payments pertaining to tuition fee loans. Tried to use the lump sum my aunt prepared to pay the loan in full, but was told i couldn't. I probed further and found out that NTU has yet to furnish details on my graduation. I couldnt wait for interest to pile up and so decided to settle for partial payment first.
6)To pass the remaining time i have, i skated even more( yearning to try this year's slalomania, hopefully in october), run, swim and clocked some boulder time in NTU.
On one occasion to a TCM with dearie a few days back,I found out from the physician that the skin complexion is a very strong indication of the INSIDE of a body. For instance, if you suffer some form of indigestion and often have constipation, it will build up alot of pimples and spots on your chin area. That sounds disturbing to me. Hence this resolution : To drink more fruit juice, especially papaya milk shake and banana juice, cos of its fibrous content in nature.
I am still waiting for all my convocation pictures to come in. And then i would show case the wonderful people who had been there for me when the going was tough.
