Today is Chinese New Year's Eve. I should be working right now. But here I am blogging cos I am sick. I have a severe headache, a runny nose and a weak stomach. I have been sick for two days, missing work for two consecutive days... it really hurts...I mean my wallet. Lets hope I get better tomorrow. Its gonna be a dog's year!!!
When you are sick and lonely, one tend to think alot... at least thats true for me. I was lying in bed with my stomach churning and head spinning, I wish she was here with me but I know that is never gonna happen. She is happily with someone and I am happy for her.
Reunion dinner was good but I had no appetite. Finally, my family get to sit down and have dinner and stay at home together. We havent done this for a freaking long time.
I went Villa Bali on Thursday night with my BRC buddies. Its a great chill out place near the former SAJC. Should bring the ODAC guys there one day!!!

My life continues to be besieged by weird decisions made by people around me. I dont understand what these people are thinking, Especially the current incident, this guy made a bizarre decision. Its like to him I worse than a piece of shit, cause he would rather select a piece of shit over me!!! But I can stand tall and tell myself that I did my best and I will live to fight for my place.

Today is Chun Meng's Big Day, the 1st among our "Brothers" to get married. (I will probably one of the last to get married). The day started at 7am at CM's house. Patrick was the designated driver for our car of brothers. He was damn nervous, cause its his first real driving experience after getting his licence more than a year ago. Still, we manage to get to the bride's house at bishan in one piece after a few close calls.
At the bride's place, her sisters' were there to make things difficult for us. But it wasnt as bad as I tot it was going to be, we were into the house after half an hour of haggling and bargaining. After fetching the bride, its back the groom's place at Jurong West for the traditional tea session........ And finally we get to eat!!! Its already 10 plus...bloody hungry.
After the tea session, it down to their new home at Redhill. Their new place is just wonderful, great interior design (they knock down a room to connect the Master Bedroom and the room was like a walk in wardrobe cum study room), the location (its just beside Redhill MRT, so near to town). Its back to the bride's place after resting at their new place. Its the last stop for the day and more food welcomes us!!! Finally, we get to go home and rest at 2pm.
The wedding dinner was held at Conrad Centennial Singapore. The same place where I was a swordbearer for my BRC OC's wedding. Anyway, the wedding went smoothly until the finale...where all the toasting came. Ya we as the brothers, drank for the groom when the friends made him drink. After all the drinking, we went up to the bridal suite. The bride was already sleeping. The groom sat down with us at the living room and talked about our current lives. We have known each other 10 years and we seldom get to sit down and talk these days. The next time might be one of ours wedding!!

Woke up with a hangover, decided to skip econs since I can always crash classes. Went for ODAC gathering cum Phylicia's farewell dinner at Marina South BBQ steamboat. After that its down to Double O for Weiling's Birthday. Drank bloody lots of shots and lost count. Shit I have to wake up at 530 for Chun Meng's wedding, lets hope I wont do what I did this morning.

This morning suppose to have Maths Consultation instead of Stats lesson, so decided to skip school instead. Went to school in the afternoon for ODAC interview. It was quite weird , cos the EXCOs are our friends and there they sat in front of me interviewing me. Suppose to go for soccer training in the evening but the training was cancelled and Rex only told us when we were waiting for our interview. I stayed back in school with Joanne, Zick, FG and Rex to study in the discussion room. But in the end only Joanne had the discipline to study. The rest of were discussing about the SIM soccer team's management and coach. After that I went to Chun Meng's bachelor party. Let's just say that we had great fun and 6 of us finish 3 1/2 bottles of Chivas. But CM's was dead drunk and we had to carry him home and he is bloody heavy when drunk!!! Lets hope I can wake up for Econs lesson tomorrow morning.

SIM's soccer team's first ever competitive match. Very disappointed with the coach, his man management is ZERO. He needs to learn that being a coach is not only about performance on the field but also management of his players. By the way, SIM lost 2-1 to Republic Poly. A result deserved as the coach obviously prefers to play some players who just cant make it!!

Attica's Staff party in a Pool Villa at The Sentosa Hotel and Spa by Beaufort Hotel. Free flow of alcohol and KFC!!! We had a great time and I realise I have been working a bunch of crazy people all the while!!! The Pool Villa is just lovely, I wish I could have my birthday celebration here, but first, I have to strike 4-D first!!!

Yesterday SIM Soccer Club had its first friendly match with NTU soccer team. Though we lost the match as expected, I guess the team learnt alot from the match.
Personally, I was quite upset. I wasnt upset that I didnt get to play. I am upset that some others with lesser ability or fitness was given the chance to play ahead of me. But its just my personal opinion, the coach probably thinks otherwise. To be fair to me, the coach hasnt really seen me play yet, but he already some preconcieve ideas. He tells me that my sprinting is suspect but he played someone who cant run after 5 mins into the match. He would rather play some players out of position which he thinks is best and the player himself would rather play somewhere else. And there I am at the touchline waiting for my chance to play in their position, which never came. But the most upsetting is that my own friends do not believe in me either. Wat are friends for? I am being realistic of my own ability, and seeing the players we have right now. I believe that I am not far off the others. I just need my chance.
But chance is something which I seldom have been given in most things I do. Why do people like to have a fixed impression of others based on what they see? They should be less hollow and look beyond the physical appearance.

Its been nearly 2 weeks since I last blogged. I wanted to blog several times but not in the mood. As we know, it has been raining like crazy since New Year and so cant do much things either!! A princess reminded me that I haven been blogging for a long time.... so let me begin with a summary of last week:
Thursday, 5 Jan 2006
I wanted to go Clementi gym in the afternoon but met up with Wayne Erh, who wanted to go as well, so we went to Jurong East gym in the evening instead. After doing weights for an hour, felt like jogging and he suggested going Chinese Garden to jog instead. Since I havent been to Chinese Garden since I was a kid, I thought it was a great idea. Running with somebody is so much different than running alone. For the first time in a long time, I completed a 6km route without stopping and walking. Makes me have confident in myself next time when I am running alone. Seriously, jogging is all mental. I feel like walking halfway through but I told myself several times to just follow Wayne. And I did it!!
At the end, I felt great and shack. The shackness lasted til this monday but it was worth it. Running makes me feel lighter and fitter.
Friday, 6 Jan 2006
Its like ground hog day. The last friday of 2005, I watch King Kong with EnEnMon and the first friday of 2006, I watch Narnia with EnEnMon too!! By the way, it is not a hot date like some of you think. Its just like two people who like to watch movie and eat popcorn going to watch movies together. Dont think too far.
Basically the weekend and Hari Raya Haji was spent working or looking at rain from my room. I am trying very hard to pack my room...but it still in a bloody mess.

I feel like a bloody fool. Travel all the way to Bishan for soccer training, but didnt do much. I dont blame the coach or anyone. But I feel damned pissed

Woke up with a headache and with Econs test in the morning. Result? Continue sleeping. Woke up at 10 and proceed to school to have lunch with Michelle and Michelle and others cos i promise them to meet for lunch. Wanted to meet FG to pay exams but decided to pay on friday instead.
In the evening, Rex, Fg, Michelle and Michelle and her boyfriend and Diver and his galfriend and I, 6 of us went to Fisherman's Wharf at Clarke Quay for dinner. Nothing special about the food I thought, but the place is quite cosy and quiet to enjoy dinner. After that we walk around in City Link and split after that.
Rex and I accompany FG to meet Qiuyi at Alleybar. (We arent lightbulbs mind you, we were invited!! Haha). Anyway, this the second time I met Qiuyi and the first time I talked to her. She is quite a friendly person but starts to talk funnily after a drink or two. But its great see FG and her being best friends after dissolving their 5 yr relationship. Long Live Friendship!?!?!?!
By the way, its Friday the 13th, lets hope it will be a good day!!

How do you know if it is your day? When you go around your work place wishing your colleagues and customers Happy New Year and the club dancer refuses to shake your hand...... instead, she gives you a big hug!!! Lucky guy me huh?? haha, I was caught by surprise too...
Things that could be lost in a New Year's Eve Party if you are not careful:
1. Umbrella
2. Swatch watch
3. Calendar
4. Stocking
5. Underwear
These are the things I found at Attica while clearing up the place after work.
Working during New Year's Eve isn't such a bad idea, I had fun counting down, popping party poppers!!
New Year Resolution
1. Continue to remain smoke free
2. To lose 10kg...At least...
3. To grow taller...5cm...(quite impossible at this age)
4. Miracles to happen during my UOL exam.
Happy New Year to all!!
