Happy Birthday Mummy!




Having stomach-ache because of the crab. Or was it the mussels. Anyway, felt really sore. So wanted to wake up this morning for a run to burn away all those fats, BUT, the pain caused me to sleep in. I can tolerate a few pains, but stomach pains are like NO-NO! I've got ZERO tolerance for them.

Got the studio shoot photos alr! Hooyah! Indeed, didn't waste my 700 bucks.

Oh, found out today that Rocky was bought at $5000. That dog... Oh my... And, if you're wondering, he's a WHITE German Shepherd. And NO! He's not an Albino. He's the product of homogenous genes.

I'm just hoping to see you soon.

"Graceful, not slow". This is the most heard sentence in this whole week. We were learning sword drill from RSM. And we were using our own swords. Ouch, heart pain. Damn scared got scratches lor. Then the marching, and the scabbard was like flying around, fuck. Brian was marching as though he's got big balls. haha... Anyway, was surprised of the punishment for the inspection.

Sneaked out to watch "The Dark Knight" last night. Haha... Quite an adventure. But the show is DISAPPOINTING! I'm in love with Batman, but the show totally screwed it up. It's draggy, too draggy actually. I slept for like half an hour, ok?! Perhaps because I was tired, but I would connect 'long-winded' with the show. Anyways, almost couldn't go back into camp because of the time we reached back. Oh wells.

Had my blood and urine test just now. I got bruised by the medic, I didn't know what he was doing too when he was injecting the needle. I didn't dare to look. haha... I've got ZERO tolerance for such stuff. The blood part is still alright, but not the needle. I almost fainted last friday when I was on drip, the needle was in my arm for 6 hours! I can't even stand it for a mere 1 second, less to speak of HOURS!

The Indonesia lang class is getting more and more ___________ (can't find a way to describe). Do I have a talent for languages? I don't know. Or do I have a good memory? Then how does one explain about my STM?

Getting fatter these days. Haven't been doing enough PT. WHY?!?!?!?!?!?!?! IPPT's coming soon! Oh NO!

Was rather shocked at the news my sister gave me. I can't believe. But I think it's quite an out-dated news.

P.S. To those who have returned home from overseas, welcome back. And where's my gift?! haha...

I miss you.

I forgot to mention about that Tiger Trail that I went on Tuesday. Seriously, after you've ran 16km the first time, the 2nd time seems to be easier. But my legs were not really cooperative that day. Got calf-aches like after a mere 3km. WTF?! I still have 13km more to go... haha... Anyways, dragged myself to the 8km point no matter what. THEN! I saw Deren!!!!! AH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank God I saw him, if not, my remaining 8km would have been a boring run. Because I was running alone by then. And running with Deren is like _______. He's 1.8+m tall, and he's got long legs. And for every step he takes, I need 2! haha... BUT, I still managed to out-run him. hahaha... Saw Eddie, at around 4km left, ran together for a while before he asked me to carry on because his knees were giving way. By then, my calf were painless... I guess I was numb already. Anyway, not very glad with the timing. Same as before. 1.5hr. Quite slow. Supposed to complete in 1hr20mins. But......

Oh... And I was thinking what I've learnt from the run.
I saw many off middle-aged men running. I'm impressed with how fit they've kept themselves. And I've decided not to stop running. And with that, I hoping to join in those long distance runs again. Marathon, maybe not so.

OK... So I left house rather early, abnormally early on Sunday. Not to camp, but to PIANOFEST!!! I need to confess.
I slept like about 0.5hr of the entire concert... lol... Most of the 0.5hr resulted from the draggy Beethoven 9th Symphony. I mean, seriously, the middle 2 movements bored me to death! I tried, I really tried, but I couldn't resist. And the Shostakovich's Prelude and Fugues, OH MY GOD! The first one was quite alright, the subsequent 3 presented were like ________. DROP-DEAD ALRIGHT?! Anyway, what I was more pissed about, WAS THE NUMBER OF CDs THAT THEY MADE AVAILABLE TO SELL!!! I mean, they only took out 15 CDs to sell that night... And they're expecting a VCH full-house strength of 1100 to turn up. HELLO! Anyways, left for camp, reached back 'home' earlier than expected. Off to bed asap.

FAST FORWARD >>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Came down with a fever on Thursday. Wanted to rest, but had work to do, so I carried on. But the standing there watching made me feel more sick. I couldn't take it, so I went back to office to lie down for a while, ON THE TABLE. And soon enough realised I have become too sick. I couldn't help sleeping there until 7.30pm when they needed to lock up the room. I dragged myself up to my bunk and threw myself on my bed. Reluctantly took off my boots, which at that point of time was a total chore because of the headache, and fell asleep on the bed. Still wearing the clothes I have yet to change since the morning before. It was my duty the day before, i.e. Wednesday. It was about 10pm when my counterparts woke me up and asked me to have my dinner. I felt lazy and decided not to. I got some panadol from James earlier, but didn't manage to pop them down before I dropped. THANKFULLY, that angelic Brian forced me to wake up and gave me a pack of biscuits. Haha... Anyway, took my pills, my super light and late dinner, and my nap, under a blanket without the fan switched on.

The next morning came too soon. I felt less warm, but the pain in the head was still as bad. Observed an unusual output of blood. Decided to go visit the doc. Was referred to the hospital to do a blood test! ARGH!!!!!!! Doc was late for like 3.5hrs from the time he said he was going to review me. He said I was fine, and I was discharged. Seriously, I felt more sick inside the hospital. BECAUSE I DON'T REALLY LIKE IT IN THERE. Then I started to wonder, will I be there when my wife's gonna give birth?! ANYWAYS, the fever had nth to do with the unusual output of blood. And I won't elaborate on the latter. I'm getting much much better now. And after all that has happened, I'm warned that I've gotta look out for something in my body.

Don't know what to blog about...

Won't talk about camp... Went for PianoFest on Friday, a.k.a, last night... haha... The concert was erm, yea. The programme's a little disappointing... But I think the pianist did NOT BAD. Saw Minyu, Betty, Wendy & her bf... Was hoping to see someone else too, but she wasn't there. Oh, we saw Gloria too, with her friend. But we didn't say 'hi', Matthew did though.

And was supposed to have supper with Matt, and he PS me in the end for 2 girls... Ok... I get it, no?! haha... Decided to meet Ed then. He also another one. Supposed to come for the concert, but PS us in the end too... Thanks to his ECP run. Anyway, still met him up. Thanks for the ride home once again. Hoping he would be going tmr. Oh, his sister went last night too... So why aren't u there?!

Wanted to go for tonight's concert, but the thought of the programme just put me off... Then again, I wanted to be there because someone would be there, and only tonight... SO... I thought it would be a good opportunity to meet her up. But since I decided to go for tmr's concert, I chose not to go for tonight's. I'm not a SUPER BIG FAN of Bach... And it's miraculous I didn't sleep through his partita... Remembered last year when someone came and play Busoni, I knocked out on and off for more than half of the concert, lol.

I'm still waiting for the photos from my studio shoot!!!

Had a weird dream last night. Titled Saving the damsel in distress. Found out that her bf was a 'monster', not literally monster, but characteristically. Saved her from that trauma! haha... Stupid dream.
