It feels much better.. talking.//Sunday, September 21, 2008//Sunday, September 21, 2008
So much has happened recently.
And ironically my previous post was a complaint that my life is pretty monotonous and mundane.
I knew there was something bothering me, a particular dilemma that I was whirled into.. seemingly unknowingly.
However, after conversation with several individuals, I realise that my cheeriness was brought to a standstill because of a reason that was obvious to me all the while.
I felt amissed when I needed to put in effort to portray a jubilant self. It wasnt to that extent where I was pretentious about my smiles, it just that the feeling of being genuinely elated and those hints of hyperactiveness and bounciness missing.
Well, the problem might not be resolved yet but at least, i feel much better.. talking.
____
I'll try to bring myself to gym thrice a week now since I got that energized self back. Of course, its about time to prepare for my full marathon too.. Tsk.
I'm going to participate in an overseas exercise from 8th Oct to 14th Nov.. So expect me to perform my disappearing act (yet again) for a while.
Phew, it really feels good. Woot~!

It has been a long time..//Thursday, September 11, 2008//Thursday, September 11, 2008
When we are jubilant,
people just have to dampen the mood.
Argh.
It's been a while since I blogged,
nothing has changed therefore purposeless to blog.
Then again maybe I was just too occupied.
Now when I decided to blog,
I find there's nothing significant to be mentioned.
I do not want to be melodramatic nor entirely dull in this post ranting about the mundane routine.
Do you ever feel troubled and disturbed of an impending disaster yet not able to anticipate what or when the dilemma is going to surface?
Oh well, maybe it will be better to blog tomorrow instead after my Sentosa trip.

Adapting to Changes//Monday, August 18, 2008//Monday, August 18, 2008
Sometimes, things are not what it seems on the surface.
Deception seems to be readily used on people who are affable or complaisant.
Recently, I got to know of someone who is really close to me that was deluded by his then-partner. He was totally mesmerized by the innocence and rectitudinous of this individual. Either his partner was exceptionally convincing or we were all simpletons, but she managed to trick us into believing work was the reason why she was occupied most of the time. And when they broke up, she gave the same reason that she needs to be off from all commitments before she leaves for her 6 months long overseas attachment.
Well, she certainly is an incredible liar.
Apparently all this while she has been two timing him. And it was not because she was going to break up with her partner but couldnt find the right opportunity to do so. She actually agreed to a relationship with two individuals at the same time.
Eventually when the matter came to light, she gave the SAME lousy excuse to both men,
"I was in love with you then, the other party was just an affair.."
How incredulous.
I'm sure she will have her karma for her promiscuousness.

Bad Day.//Friday, August 08, 2008//Friday, August 08, 2008
First it was being accused of coming up with a presentation when obviously the person did not mention that.
And I can do nothing about it.
Next I'm told that my caught in the audit for flying without medical qualification. But its stated I can. Today CPT Seah told me to be prepared for explainations.
And I can do nothing about it.
Just when I thought I'm should be proud of myself for remaining cheery,
I realised my adidas track shoes were stolen.
And I followed my mum's advice of placing my track shoes in the stallroom.
Feeling really horrible now.

Now I have a face fat..////Wednesday, July 30, 2008
With the two wisdom teeth out, I breathed a huge sigh of relief.
I pondered why the nurse admired my audacity to extract out both teeth.
To my dismay, after a peaceful (or should I say totally oblivious) 2 hours later,
the throbbing pain began.
I shouted at miki for barking, my mum for being overly caring and myself at the mirror for god knows what reason. -- Highly Irritable.
The painkillers were definitely not too effective at that particular fateful moment.
Anyway thats yesterday.
No pain, no gain? Well there was pain so therefore there's the gain..
two swollen fat cheeks.. To be precise, its as though both sides of the jaws were furiously pumped with adrenaline.
And I'm contemplating taking a photo of it. =P
Well on a positive note, I get to snuggle in my bed. And I'll probably lose quite a bit of weight since I cant really munch.

4 - 1 = 3 : Teeth//Tuesday, July 01, 2008//Tuesday, July 01, 2008
After a whopping $240, I'm officially broke now.
I have to keep telling myself its money well spent.
I extracted one of the four wisdom teeth out this afternoon, after a long wait from 2.30 till 5pm.
I really tried but helplessly, I shed a tear when the dentist was treating the newly discovered and highly problematic tooth.
It was like the scene in The Dentist, with the chainsaws replaced with horrific needles.
Tomorrow I have an exercise, gonna be out in the sea till friday. I really wonder how will I be able to survive this ordeal. More importantly, I guess I'll have to forfeit that MC of mine.
I'll reserve my post till later because my pain is causing my brain to go blank.

Now I'm unsure..//Wednesday, June 25, 2008//Wednesday, June 25, 2008
The feeling is back.
And this sign is definitely not welcomed.
I subtly gave a few hints, some which I thought were obvious.
But i was disappoint.
I appreciate honesty, and I'm practical,
but sometimes I admit I do need that bit of care & concern.
More importantly, I was eager for this night to arrive,
maybe in future I should anticipate lesser.

The curse of my unit//Sunday, June 22, 2008//Sunday, June 22, 2008
My unit is cursed.
Eerie and spooky.
There lies a haunted creature known as the hypnotizing queen (why 'queen' well because queens are seemingly more reputable than kings)
who has been extremely successful whenever she cast a comatose spell,
as hardly anyone who starts work in my unit stays fresh and bubbly at the end of the day.
Alright I was just rambling really randomly.
But verily the schedule for the whole of last week was so banal that I'm turning anal.
Fortunately I'm promised with many flights next week (though early in the morning) in order to meet the flying requirements for the unit.
It has been an eventful week the least,especially when I'm warrant with claimable cab fares after 10pm.
Today marks the start of my gym regime,working out muscles does allow you gain more confidence of your own body.
While attaining those pecs and abs,
its a good form of stress relieve and prevent me from snacking subconsciously.
I think I will have to spend greater effort chasing the blues from the monday tomorrow,
but stay cheery everyone who bothered to read till the end of this humdrum post.

Physical Touch.

| Acts of Service: | 4 | |
| Receiving Gifts: | 1 |
Information
Unhappiness in relationships, according to Dr. Gary Chapman, is often due to the fact that we speak different love languages. Sometimes we don't understand our partner's requirements, or even our own. We all have a "love tank" that needs to be filled in order for us to express love to others, but there are different means by which our tank can be filled, and there are different ways that we can express love to others.Take the quiz

Tanlines////Thursday, June 12, 2008
The sun's SO SCORCHING HOT
and now all of us have tanlines that arent too glamorous.
Some even have very abnormal (and extremely amusing) tanlines on their forehead due to their peak caps.
For me?
At least I can boasted that I look much redder

Beep Test//Tuesday, June 10, 2008//Tuesday, June 10, 2008
The multi-stage fitness test or beep test, is used by sports coaches to estimate an athlete's maximum oxygen uptake, and is employed by many international sporting teams as an accurate test of Cardio - Vascular fitness.
The test involves running continuously between two points that are 20 m apart. These runs are synchronized with a pre-recorded audio tape, which plays beeps at set intervals. As the test proceeds, the interval between each successive beep reduces, forcing the athlete to increase velocity over the course of the test, until it is impossible to keep in sync with the recording.
Some sports leagues also require their players to clear a certain level before being allowed to play in the league (e.g The S.League sets a minimum pass mark of Level 12.
__
Surprisingly I was the last survivor in Air Wing. Stopped at Level 12, Stage 6.
Yet to my annoyance, I heard a fair bit of gasps from unfamiliar souls who were shocked that I beat some renowned runners (those who can easily run 2.4 at sub 9 minutes.)
Maybe my buddies are right,
my stomach which might be larger in size can be useful enough to contain oxygen too

Fulfilling Saturday////Sunday, June 08, 2008
Despite an unnecessary misunderstanding with Aloy bro, the saturday turned out to be really enjoyable and a relaxing one.
3pm - Tamp Mall with secondary school clique. (Been eons since I met them)
5.30pm - Angela's Vocal Class (all thanks to the inflammed nose and throat I sounded so wrong)
8pm - Sushi Tei and Berry & Jerry with Andrew & Justin
10pm - Met Mervyn for coffee and his friends.
2am - Home sweet home.
My bros would know why I enjoy the evening so much though. =P
Anyway, there were comments that I have lost significant amount of weight.. It was supposed to be an elating news, but somehow they revealed I looked rather haggard instead.

With a boost of confidence,
hopefully things turn out fine!

Rain God//Tuesday, June 03, 2008//Tuesday, June 03, 2008
Today's commissioning rehearsal was rather special..
The cumulonimbus clouds wails were answered and the floodgates opened.
Unfortunately, 560 poor cadets were just marching into the parade square and commencing their first full rundown of the parade.
And it was really coincidental that after enduring that intense and arduous challenge of marching in soaking wet boots (and the rest of our clothings of course) after 2 full hours, the heavy rain practically stopped (yes it halted rather unexpected unlike the gradual kinds.)
PT Excellence in the afternoon was even more dampening. The moment when the exercise started,
IT RAINED YET AGAIN.
Well, what's the chance of getting caught in two heavy rains during the commencement of activities?
I concluded 69/07 batch isnt too lucky.

Monkeys Alert!//Friday, May 30, 2008//Friday, May 30, 2008
Many animals are subjected to cruelty of humans.
I can comprehend why chickens are slaughtered for their meat, or cows killed in exchange of our tenderloin or ribeye.
Unfortunately for monkeys, their lives arent well appreciated either.
Read the following:
How are monkey brains eaten?
Certain restaurants provide special tables with a hole in the center. The live monkey is immobilized with its body below the table, and the top of its skull is removed with a knife. The head, which protrudes above the table top, serves as a bowl. Liquor may be poured into the skull and mixed with the brain. The diners then proceed to scoop out and eat parts of the brain.
This shocking revelation was so impactful it literally brought shivers down my spine. I couldnt visualize a group of eager china tourists witnessing such malicious and satanic act. As much as I am not switching my diet and joining monks with their vegetarian diets, realisation of such brutality brought me light to the callousness and perverted mindsets of some specific tyrannical individuals.
Yes, I'm extremely agitated because I simply cannot fathom why such acts are still present in today's society. A living monkey hammered on the head, the skull shattered and the barbaric human treating the brain and its plasma as a delicacy.
Ouch. THESE PEOPLE OUGHT TO BE SHOT.

Hell of a week//Sunday, May 25, 2008//Sunday, May 25, 2008
This week was wearying.
We were bombarded with drills sessions in preparation for RCGC and RGDI (Air Force Graduation Ceremony & Dinner.) Fortunately, regimentation was not present back in AFS, therefore one could really be carefree once after the day's activities concluded.
Despite all the complaints about appalling humidity, I am pretty certain that most of us felt the pride when we wore the No.2 and received our swords. Of course, most of us including Mr Lim here transformed into cam whores and myriad of photos were snapped.

J Hud and glimpse of exhausting life in AFS//Tuesday, May 20, 2008//Tuesday, May 20, 2008
LOS ANGELES - Oscar-winning "American Idol" castoff Jennifer Hudson plans to release her self-titled debut album in September, with the first single, "Spotlight," hitting U.S. radio outlets in June, her label said on Monday.
"Spotlight," described as a song about insecurities within a relationship, was composed by R&B songwriter and vocalist Ne-Yo, who co-produced along with the Norwegian production duo known as Stargate.
Additional contributors on the album include Timbaland, Robin Thicke, the Underdogs, Diane Warren and Christopher "Tricky" Stewart.
Hudson's debut is being released through the SonyBMG label Arista Records, with "Spotlight" hitting the airwaves on June 9. The song will be made available for digital download the following day.
"I think people will be pleasantly surprised, because it shows a side of my work that no one has heard before," Hudson, a Chicago native, said in a statement issued by the label.
Hudson, 26, first gained public attention as a contestant during the third season of the hit television talent contest "American Idol," but she ended up as the sixth finalist voted off the show.
Undaunted, Hudson went on to land the role of Effie White in the movie adaptation of the musical "Dreamgirls," based loosely on the story of Motown act The Supremes, for which she won a Golden Globe and Academy Award as best supporting actress.
She next appears in the upcoming film adaptation of the HBO TV series "Sex in the City" and on its soundtrack, due May 27, as well as "The Secret Life of Bees," which hits U.S. theaters on October 17.

I never thought her as marketable (nor likable), but she was really impactful in Dreamgirls. Wonder how well she will fare in a R&B genre.

It was such a long and exhausting day packed with series of mundane lectures and aimless RCGC rehearsal. This gonna last till the end of the week. At least I get to sample some of mum's cooking for this nights out.I cant really sleep without a bolster. Need something to hug especially during this humid weather.

Cardio Workout//Monday, May 19, 2008//Monday, May 19, 2008
I think I'm going to start my intense cardio workout from this week onwards.
Staying in Murai has undoubtedly bring about a greater appetite and lazier mindset, therefore a fuller figure.
Monday, Wednesday, Friday: 10km run
Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday: 8-10 sets of 1min jog-sprint intervals
Sunday: Lesiure cycling for 1-1.5hours
Don't think I'll plan my diet, its not going to work out too well when you are in camp. Think this will be a good training for AHM 21km this August. Will try to consume no carbo after 8 latest.
Reprimand me if you see me slacking off this routine.
