BBQ night, Dead phone, Swollen right foot, Jit Siong's Birthday

Back with updates (:

1st off some rainy news...
my phone is damaged..I found out the hard way how non-water resistant my phone is when it dropped into a washing basin. Sadden =(
The sunny side of this is that I'll be collecting it from Sony @ wisma on tuesday or monday hopefully.

Its kinda refreshing not having to answer your mobile or keep checking for messages..it takes your mind off things.
I have been keeping up with work though, through emails, msn and my home tele. I won't neglect my work and assignments just because of a phone.
Though it can be troublesome at times like when everyone is planning to go on an outing and you're like the last the find out at the last min, I'll take it that fate wants me to have this slight moment of peace=) I shall make full use of it!

P.S for those who are trying to contact this evil ryuta, you can reach him through email, msn or my home tele( not many of you have this )=P sorry for the inconvience

BBQ night was nice it went wonderfully well congrats to the 34th councils who made it all possible. 1st members act success Fwoo!

I was F&B this time along with hashanah, matthew, bing hua and mervyn. haha
The five of us were in the Advance party so we were in charge of bbq pit preparations.
We got the news all of a sudden that the members were arriving! in the midst of relaxing..O.O;
we were supposed to be informed way before hand so that a lil food would have been cooked at least.
Enter frenzy mode...we rushed to get the fires up and burnin' and cook as much as possible. In the end it turned out alright.

Didn't get to interact much with the new members as I was behind the pit cooking most of the time, flippin satay and otah was my fav! I became pretty good at it!
Spoke with a few members though Ying Ting from mass com & Si Jia from ECH met them from thr cca fiesta really friendly people, zhen yi from ECP and Jasmine from didn't get to ask her haha they were nice too.

Saw some old friends and made some new ones it was kinda cool, seeing the current councils interacting with members reminds me of myself like a year ago when I first started out as a council.
You guys have grow soo much I'm proud of you guys! Keep up the good work!

Gotta new shoutout for mervyn and bruno.
shout out: Stay cool
reply: Always cool

haha. Well she still seem a lil angry at me guess I must have irritated her a lil too much. But in the end it all turned out ok.

Went back home about 11pm. Bathe and got some well deserved sleep.

Came back from karate training with a swollen right foot after a small accident while sparring on saturday now its a lil better but I can't wear shoes because it still hurts a lil.
Its preveting me from going for Floorball today too! humph!! >=(
hope it recovers soon!

Whiskey dry


Vodka Cranberry

Went to school today to help out with the CCA Fiesta preparations






Just check out how limited is our area this year!!
( the person who came up with this arrangement needs to get his/her/their heads checked )



TAS



Flying Mervyn! ( I love this pic! )

The showcase for CCA Fiesta is soo much smaller than last year! The people who decided to limit the area are really STUPID!! I mean how are we suppose to attract members with all the booths soo close to one another?? It doesn't work like that! Roar! Coconut Berry!

Tomorrow's the Start of the new sem as well! Enter year 3..=( time flies..really really fast!
Hope we get lots of quality members this year!

tomorrow is another day!

Berkelah waterfalls, Hashanah's return, Hoodie, Jay chou

I'm back from Berkelah waterfalls! woots! it was fun. Its the most enjoyable waterfall trip I have experienced thus far!
The trek to the main waterfall was worth it!
There were very deep pools for swimming as well! The main waterfall had a deep 10m+ pool ( maybe even deeper )
There was also a rainbow over at the main waterfall which kept appearing and disappearing due to the sunlight.
Here are some of the photos from the trip:



Start of the trek

Twin falls

self-taken pic in a shallow pool





I almost slipped and fell into the water while taking this pic


A pitcher plant! ( I'm still a HLM student through & through haha! )






2nd last fall


I caught a slight fever/cold from the return bus journey...it was frickin' cold!! I didn't take out my wind-breaker because I had assume it wasn't going to be cold..bad idea..I nearly froze to death on that stupid bus....had to curl up and sleep.

Hashanah is back from China too! welcome back girl!

My hoodie from YES STYLE came at last! woots! waited like a week for it! its finally here!

Was surfing youtube and searched for some of Jay chou' songs ( just had the urge to listen to his songs again )

heres one of my Favs


晴天

故事的小黃花
The spring flower of the story
從出生那年就飄著
Floats from that year when it was born
童年的盪鞦韆
Swinging on a swing in childhood
隨記憶一直晃到現在
Following memories always swaying till now
ㄖㄨㄟ ㄙㄡ ㄙㄡ ㄒ一 ㄉㄡ ㄒ一
ㄌㄚ ㄙㄡ ㄌㄚ ㄒ一 ㄒ一 ㄒ一 ㄒ一 ㄌㄚ ㄒ一 ㄌㄚ ㄙㄡ
吹著前奏望著天空我想起花瓣試著掉落
Playing the prelude, watching the sky, I remember the petal trying to flop
為妳翹課的那一天
That day when I skipped class for you
花落的那一天
That day when flowers fell
教室的那一間
That classroom
我怎麼看不見Why is it I couldn't see
消失的下雨天
The disappeared rainy sky?
我好想再淋一遍
I really want to be drenched again
沒想到失去的勇氣我還留著
Never thought that I still keep the courage that I have lost
好想再問一遍
Really want to ask again
妳會等待還是離開
Will you wait or leave?
颳風這天
This day of the typhoon
我試過握著妳手
I tried to hold onto your hand
但偏偏
But yet
雨漸漸
Rain gradually
大到我看妳不見
Became heavy to the point that I cannot see you
還要多久
How much longer
我才能在妳身邊
Before I can be at your side?
等待放晴的那天
Waiting for that day when it clears up
也許我會比較好一點
Maybe I will be a bit better
從前從前
In the past, in the past
有個人愛妳很久
There was someone who loved you for a long time
但偏偏
But yet
風漸漸
Wind gradually
把距離吹得好遠
Blows the distance really far apart
好不容易
Not very easily
又能再多愛一天
Once again be able to love a day more
但故事的最後妳好像還是說了拜拜
But the end of the story it seems like you still said bye-bye
enjoy

Better In Time

Recce is coming! Going to berkelah Waterfalls! woots!!

The info I found on the web about this waterfall just increases my excitement for the recce!
Here are photos of the things I've been doing this past week.




Went for to a Turkish restaurant for dinner with my sceondary school buddies last saturday




( look at the number of plates )
Had Sakae Sushi lunch buffet at city link with my poly classmates



( roast duck pizza! yumness! )

Went Dhoby Ghaut for LAN and dinner( 1st time having roast duck pizza and blue lagoon ) =D
Received my package from USA containing my survivor Buff!
Yayness! + happiness + coolness!
Woots! Survivor buff!!
I've also decided to concentrate more on my karate in order to get selected for the national team at the end of this year( hopefully I'll be able to make it )
Guess that means bye bye AR for now...
[SNSD!]

SNSD concluded their final week of activities for "Gee" with farewell live performances at KBS2TV's Music Bank on the 27th ofmarch and SBS's Inkigayo on the 29th of march, bringing closure to the "Gee" craze that had gripped Korea nationwide since January.
Gee was on the no.1 chart for 9 weeks
wow!
The girls added that they will be coming back with their next album which will be even better and more anticipated than "Gee". "As our fans expect more and more from us, we will work harder and harder to present our best to everyone," the girls concluded.
SNSD Fighting!
can't wait for their next Album!!

Charmaine ask which song was to best describe how I felt that day haha think its this

Leona lewis[ better in time ]
It's been the longest winter without you
I didn't know where to turn to
See somehow I can't forget you
After all that we've been through
Going coming thought I heard a knock
Who's there no one
Thinking that I deserve it
Now I realize that I really didn't know
If you didn't notice you mean everything
Quickly I'm learnin'
To love again
All I know is
I'm goin' be ok

[Chorus]
Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too
It'll all get better in time
And even though I really love you
I'm gonna smile cause I deserve to
It'll all get better in time
I couldn't turn on the TV
Without something that'd remind me
Was it all that easy
To just put aside your feelings

If I'm dreaming
Don't wanna let that hurt my feelings
But that's the path I've been living
And I know that time will heal it
If you didn't notice boy you meant everything
Quickly I'm learning to love again
All I know is I'm goin' be ok
Since there's no more you and me
It's time I let you go so I can be free
And live my life how it should be
No matter how hard it is
I'll be fine without you
Yes I will

[Chorus X2]
Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too
It'll all get better in time
And even though I really love you
I'm gonna smile cause I deserve to
It'll all get better in time .....


tomorrow is reece!

Karate, Recce, Shopping, Choices..

I can't believe it has already been 1 week since my last post! time really flies!

I've been hanging out with my secondary school buddies last week. Went for buffet at Sakae sushi on Friday, Bowling and had a Turkish dinner on Saturday night. ( yayness and yumness)

I think I've been spending a lil' too much money recently..have to cut down..or get that Ad 21 job or Adidas job.

Recce is coming for the 1st trip! woots! can't wait!

Today at noon, I got a called from my Karate Sensei about my trainings.
Its about increasing my commitment in karate which basically equals to more training..if I do There might be a chance that I'll get selected into the National Team and get to represent SINGAPORE in the 2013 SEA games.
Though he added that this will be a long process which requires lots of dedication and hard work from me and hope to have a positive reply from me about this matter soon not verbal but through my actions.( so guess I have to go down more often for trainings ).

The prospect of representing SINGAPORE in the SEA games is really tempting and I'm really grateful to my Sensei for having such high expectations of me. However if I choose this path it'll mean that I'll have lil' or no time for my Adventure Races at all because of the amount of training it requires. Which means I'll have to put AR on hold or give it up altogether. T.T(ultimate sadness)

There is one thing I'll never give up though that is my interest in Adventure not really in the AR field but as in Trekking, Mountaineering, Rock climbing, White water rafting etc.
I have always preferred that type of Adventure, the more leisure, care-free, trek-stop and smell the roses and enjoy the scenery.
I really grateful and glad that I joined The Adventure Seekers as it was though this CCA (or rather the Pelepah trip ) that lit the passion for adventure in me!

Oh well I guess I should make a choice soon like I did with a certain issue as well. ( gave up one thing for another )

Can't wait for the SURVIVOR BUFFS to be delivered! coolness!

tomorrow is another day

April Fools, Updates, Mervyn, John

Today is 1st of April, which is also known as april fools day...a fact which i clearly forgotten as I woke up early this morning and got the shock of my life when I saw Charmaine's prank message.


Thanks to that message I couldn't go back to sleep in peace...found out like 6 hours later that it was a prank..=_=
So those of you who wanna prank me please keep in mind I'm a lil dense, so ya please don't prank me.


Went to the airport to welcome Mervyn back from Vietnam on sunday, had dinner at T3 with the 34th councils there..ate mushroom congee yum! It was the most expensive congee I've ever ate 9.90
had the rice mochi for dessert.
Mervyn bought gifts for us as well its this long black wooden dragonfly






Thanks for the gift Mervyn!




The next day, went to send John off to Australia, before that I went to east coast to cycle with Aliyyah, Darren & Zai ( thanks for the invite darren ) we rented bikes from East coast and cycled all the way to Changi village( its a new system that allows us to return the bikes at another shop branch of the same company but different location ) met norman at a bus stop near his work place after that it was off to the airport.

We had our last dinner with him as a 33rd council.
Honestly some ppl were still pissed off with each other...just let it go already shessh
John even joked about the number of people who came to send him off..he was like" my god lah its all I won't ever be coming back to Singapore lah "




We ate at popeyes, it was fun! getting together again as 33rd councils. I really missed those times. Jazreel's Hp got stolen..hope the culprit gets his retribution!
( Heres some photos of John! )















Goodbye my friend..cya in 6 months prawn mee when u get back
I'll email ya.

Don't run into the woods and disappear like you said you would. Please don't bring back your weapon prototypes as well..you'll get caught.

( Thanks for all the nonsensical moments and Adventure we had in 33rd council )
(Also thanks for asking about me and her )
I took this photo when I was on my way home yesterday...







with every storm..there'll always be sunshine waiting at the end of it.




Haha random shot it is but the picture doesn't do justice to the scene..the scenery was 10 times more stunning!
( And you looked stressed up or was unhappy with something..cheer up ya?I told you before, you look better with a smile on your face..)
=)

Meanwhile here a song from Kara it's called honey( have been addicted to this )~enjoy~




Tomorrow is another day
