Here For You - Firehouse

It's a rainy friday as i typed out this post on my blog. I had taken a day of sick leave today as I'm really not feeling well. I just came back from the poly clinic and was diagnosed with Flu by the doctor there. I heard that she was sick too from flu as well and from the last sms, she told me that she is going to see the doctor. I had not heard anything from her yet maybe i will msg her to ask how was it.

I think that it had been raining for the last 48 hours already. Mostly light-drizzle but the weather now is very cooling. It's a great time to sleep, i think the last time i experienced such "great weather" was during March 2008. This is one of the most memorable month for me. It's tiring but i experienced first hand on why we need national service in Singapore. Terrorist threat are very real and we must not let it happened in Singapore no matter what. It don't just threatened lives but also threatened the economy. If we couldn't protect our economy, foreign investors will not be encouraged to invest here, tourists will feel unsafe to travel here etc. This will definately affect the money going into this country. Speaking of economies, the world is currently facing a recession of sort. It all started in the US where investment banks made the investments into housing and for some reasons, it burst. This sent many investment banks such as Lehman Brothers into bankruptcy. AIG was "saved" at the last minute by the US government's bailout. Soon Europe follows the suit and since most of the Asian economies are linked to US dollars, the whole world is currently in sort of a recession. Eventhough many are losing monies but it's not as bad as the 1997 Asian Economic Crisis. I had faith in our government eventhough we might felt the affect for the next few months to years but there are also lights at the end of the tunnel.

However this thing came at the worst of times. I'm going to the workforce next year and i'm really worried on whether about the prospect to find a healthy job. Hope everything goes well.

Weekend coming!!!

Better In Time - Leona Lewis

Hi all, i guess it's quite surprising for me to post at this hour and especially on this rainy thursday. Not sure why but i just feel like updating it. Anyway, i had a very slow week and I'm really glad that weekend is just 1 more day away. Yeah!!!

The video i attached above is "Better In Time" by Leona Lewis. She was a winner in X-Factor competition in the UK and i really like one of the past songs, "Bleeding Love". It's kind of song where it describe a relationship between a couple as it turn to a separation and the singer really hopes that she will get better in time. It's currently one of my favourite song but than i'm still in a very great relationship with HER. Anyway, speaking of her i think i shall post a picture taken last saturday at the bus stop opposite Downtown East.

Photobucket

It was taken using my friend handphone and i know it did shows abit of the blur but still clear to enough to see our face. Haha. Monday had accompanied Wai Kit to Far East Plaza to get his PSP. It does makes me realised that I really had not been playing PSP much recently. Well i guess probably Sony needs to come out more kick ass games to make people like me get interested in PSP again. I had yet to update to their more up to date firmware, Firmware 5.0 as i'm currently waiting for a M33 version to come out. However i won't care about what firmware they would be coming out as i'm not really of a gamer anymore. I think there are much in life waiting for me other than games i would really love to explore it after I ORD this coming december.

Anyway, there i goes again - should i get myself a tennis racket or not? I wanted to invest in one but still got this lingering feeling that since I'm only a casual player and it's not very worth it for me to get one for myself.

I think i'm logging off now. I hoped tomorrow passed fast so it's weekend and i again needed some rest. It's gonna be a long weekend for me. I'll be only returning to camp on tuesday as monday is an off day for me.

With You



Hey all, i just came back and all i can say that it's a wonderful day for me. Went chalet and before that spend a great deal of time with her. I really like that feeling and i felt that I'm falling deeper and deeper for her. If i can and she is willing, i would really love to confirm her as my wife. But too bad that both of us are not ready for marriage yet. Maybe this will be our "long term project" to get married since her parent likes me and my mum is quite interested in her. HAHA

Due to my family latest interests in Tennis, i really tempted to get myself a tennis racket but then i'm just a social player and tennis is not really one of my favourite sports. I preferred more of soccer and running plus some other cardiac works such as skipping rope or a light gym work. So in the end, i decided against getting a racket. This is also due that i wanted to save up some money up so i can get something else that will be more suitable for part and parcel of my daily life be that a new pair of shoes, a new earphone for my ipod or even some clothes.

Recently i started playing my long neglected PSP again due to Star Wars The Force Unleased game. It's really a good PSP game in the vein of Devil May Cry, God of War and Heavenly Swords where you are required to perform a certain sets of buttons before you can finish off the bosses of the game. Do check it out because it's really good. Speaking of games, i'm quite interested in getting Xbox360 over PS3. I never thought i could ever be interested in Xbox360 before but their recent lineups are really good. I'm a great Sony Playstation fanboy but i got to admit that Playstation brand need an immediate remedy if they ever want to catch up with Wii while avoiding losing more grounds to Xbox360.

For those of you wondering why did i embed a video at the top. Well after what happened today of both me and her, i felt the song is the most suiting. And that is the reason why i like this song so much.

Anyway, i think i'm getting sleepy. Will update again when i have the time. Goodnight to all.

Finally Friday....again

I think this is one of the many posts that entitled "Finally Friday" here.

Another hectic gone and here comes another weekend. Today i got my 22nd pay from Army which only 2 more paydays left before i ORD. Anyway, the air-con in my room is leaking again. I really wanted to contact the technician to have it drained again but did not know which brand is good. So guys if you have any reputable air-con services that can intro, do leave me a note. Many Thanks!!

Anyway, she had a blog now. I'm very glad to read it because i know what is she thinking. I will be meeting her again this coming saturday so i guess i'm quite looking forward to it. Had already signed up for The New Paper Big Walk this coming 2nd November 2008 and she say that she might not be able to finish 5km walk haha. Anyway, 5km is not really anything for me as i had finished a longer walk before in army. I had even ran this distance before so i guess it should be just any other "routine walk" for me. :P

I got Jay Chou latest cd already and it rocks. It's much much better than "I'm Busy." Guys highly recommended and to show that he is back at his best once again. Haha

Well 11pm is coming and another day over. This shows time really flies fast. I will try to update it as much as possible because i'm starting to get a lot of time from my schedule since I'm going to ORD soon.

That's all for now.

Finally Friday

Listening to: Boys Like Girls - Thunder

Hi peeps, i'm here to update this blog abit. I'm quite busy recently and did not really had much time online. As you all know, i woke up at about 6:45am everyday and reached home usually at around 6:30pm. I spent almost 12 hours outside and only had another 12 hours at home. And in this 12 hours, 7 hours are needed for sleep which in turn only had about 5 hours of free time. It's abit less by my standard but what to do. This is life!!!

As i had stated many times before, my ord date is on 17th December 2008 and I'm already in the mood. Haha. Booked by Dental FFI on the 31st October 10:15am at Selarang Camp and after that i will need to go draw blood for HIV test just in case i contacted that disease during National Service which is quite impossible. I'm really looking forward for the day to come haha. And immediately after I ORDed, i'm going for a weekend getaway to Genting Highland, Malaysia on the weekend. Had already found out how much i needed to pay and on the schedule on what time the bus is departing. I can say quite excited for this trip and what make it more exciting is that this trip might be my first trip oversea with a good friend of mine and of course the girl i'm in a relationship in now. If i can confirmed everything by this month, i believed that this would be the most memorable trip ever overseas. After this, the next trip overseas most likely will be to Taiwan or Hong Kong.

Last weekend, Singapore held it's first ever F1 race and what make it more unusual is that it's being held at night. The world's first ever night race and probably the most exciting and dramatic race ever in F1. I know that Ferrari's was all negative about it, but it's luck they should be cursing and not Singapore's track. If Alonso and Renault can win it, but why can't them? I never like Ferrari in the first place and this incident really re-instated my belief for Ferrari. Go McLaren and Go Hamilton. You can do it. I would love to see Alonso and Hamilton on the same team again but i believed that it will never happened especially on what happened last season. But Alonso will definately do better if he join BMW next season. I had told myself that i would really want to buy tixs for the race again next year. I do not want to miss it again.

I think with this, it's time for me to log off. I want to finish watching Meet Dave before I sleep tonight. Hoped to have the time to update again.
