Hey all !
Woah, certainly there is a lack in updates. But hey, im doing fine and still kicking.
Today I got into a close encounter with a accident due to neligence act of a SBS driver.

I was on a bus @ toa payoh int, where the driver is waiting to turn out of the int. Then, there was another driver reversing his double deck bus out from the lot and my bus was directly behind his. I reckoned he didnt even bother to check his side mirror before reversing out. So on his presumed assumption, he reversed. It was a loud bang before the glass were shattered into bits and I was just 2 seats in front. It was such a close encounter but i'm so thankful that no one was injured.

this world cup has been overwhelming!
It seems i've lost touch from many things.
I've been going out late and coming home in wee hrs before reporting for work the next day.
Average hrs of slp was down to 4hrs.
This world cup has been depressing too, its not football im talking abt. It seems the games are flowing alongside with the bookies. My intuition tells me that this World Cup seems to have been controlled. Bookies, Singapore Pools are making tonnes of money, and you wouldnt want to imagine that. But some matches are really good. GO ARGENTINA !! Thats my take for this World Cup. :)

While watching the matches earlier on, there was this random random thought that crossed my mind.

Women always say this : " It seems that all good guys have extinct !!"

Sounds familiar huh? But if you were to think deeper, what will women do when good guys are right in their presence?
I will leave this qns for yourself to answer.
Guys can never understand girls and Vice versa !!

Contradiction is my only description for them.
Words and Actions are always in CONFLICT !
I'm pretty sick of reading pple's mind, the more I try, the more depressing it is.
I'm done with mind games

Gd night !!!

Cousin Roger & Trisha 's Wedding

Just came back from my cuzzie's wedding.
Gosh, I wont deny that time flies.

10 years back, Roger kor was some organizing committee of a BB Night's Cycling Trip and together with cuzzie Justin, both of participated and survived the night.

5 years back, if I'm correct, Roger kor was crafting his career path with the Army. So whenever we have house visiting, he never failed to share with us "Ghost" Stories. And Movie Marathon was the highlight during that stage of our lives.

Now 2010, he finally got married, and is ready to spend and commit his life with beloved Trisha. The wedding @ M-Hotel was simple. The whole ceremony started with the prestigious presentation of the Sword Bearers. Suave looking NS men with awesome figure and babyface(proclaimed by mommy) lined up at the aisle, ready to welcome the lovely couple. And emcees for the ceremony make the walk a challenging and a memorable one, extraordinary is the word. There are 3 obstacles.

1) To witness the everlasting love they have for one another:
They are supposed to kiss till we stopped clapping. So the entire kissing moment lasted for 2-3mins, and YES, they went through that easily.

2) To witness intimate bond they have with one another:
They are supposed to sing a DUET. Gosh and everyone stood in awe when their amazing voices filled through the banquet room. They became Superstar OVERNIGHT ! Awsome !!

3) To witness the support both of them shared:
Roger kor have to carry Trisha to the stage. Sounds difficult? ABSOLUTELY NOT MAN !!!

Service was satisfactory and the food, nth to rave abt actually. But the banquet room was cosy and the lighting was soft and warm, so thats the plus point.
There were lots of catching up with relatives and cousins. I love bonding sessions because thats when you get to learn so much from the seniors. I've learnt so much from my uncle, a businessman, single, and have so much experience in this working society. He shared a few points that totally struck me hard. He left me with 2 advises.

1) To have a good PR. Be polite to the people around you, be respectable and never despise anyone. Bring out your true self and never feel intimidated to strike conversation with others. BE YOURSELF !
2) To have guts to try ! I guess this point has proven to have the greatest impact on me. There are so many things I've always wanted to do and I know it will benefit me in the future. But most of the time, I procrastinate due to a few factors.

Companionship - I guess up to this date, I've still not learnt this BIG word " INDEPENDENCE". To be able to attend a course alone, without companions, is not my option at all. So I guess, this factor has imposed a huge barrier from achieving what i really want. I need to do smth abt it.

Worthiness - Would you spend 150 bucks on a new pair of sneakers or will you use that money to upgrade yourself ? That is a qns which I've always struggled when it crossed my mind.

Excuses - Coming home at 7pm almost everyday, do you think I have the time ? Sounds familiar? Simple excuses like this may be a hindrance.

I'm beginning to learn more abt myself, which i think is really necessary and important. Why am I feeling that I just a ordinary person, nth in my portfolio, nth extraordinary, nth to rave abt... The world is progressing, why am I not moving ? This is a qns which I need to constantly ask myself. What am i gonna do in the future ? To be a workaholic who slogs his heart out just to survive in this society OR to be a self driven person who has crafted out a good career for himself? My parents have been really good role models in my life. They deserve a good life when they stepped into their Golden Years. I will make them proud, make them happy.

After NS will be Uni life. Gosh thats when mathematical formulae step into the picture once again! Come to think of it, i have 1 year 2 mths more before I officially served my liability off to the nation. After which, it will be the paramount stage of my life. My rice bowl is dependent on these next 3 years of studies. Either I make it or break it, I need the strength to do it, for my parents, for myself !!

NS will be a great opportunity to upgrade myself. I have to take up courses, to move forward like how this world is progressing. To stay competitive so that I wont lose out to people by a huge margin. Hmm sounds hard, but I need to have the guts to try !

Oops! Seems like I was out of the track. Yeah wedding bells. I wish Roger kor and Trisha will share a blissful and wonderful life ahead of them. It's amazing when 2 strangers of different background, beliefs, principles, strengths, flaws, come together to share their lives as one!

LOVE may be a small word on the appearance, but to this date, many still could not comprehend the real meaning of love and I'm of no exception too. Love makes one blind, to the extend of losing himself, his rights, his beliefs, his principles, his freedom, just to compromise and sacrifice for the other party. Love is complicated, it cant never be defined accurately, NEVER !
Like what my uncle have mentioned, LOVE is not everything. LOVE is not a priority.
But to think of it, wont it be good to have someone to give you the support you've always needed, to know that someone will be there for you when no one else would, to savour the love care concern when you needed it most? This is an undeniable fact when you view human needs in a different light. We humans need to be loved.
I can give pretty good advises to pals regarding love issues but when its my turn, it seems that I sucked at it. I often screwed up things, because when i thought things were going fine, it turned out to be otherwise. I always rationalized things before I made decisions. I always follow my heart instead of considering options provided by people ard me, but time and time again, it was eminently proven that it often got me into a mess! I hate deciphering things, reading pple's thoughts, convincing myself that "hey its ideal to set out with those actions". I've learnt but often i will wavered when certain situations struck me. Call me a wuss, but fuck that, thats me and I will change for the betterment of myself. My love life sucks indeed but hey its not everything. Trust me, when i say I've lost faith, I meant I really did. I lose it all man and i do not need to prove anything...
Alright enough on that, I'm getting pretty sick !
