Heheh… I’ve been having a pretty fun time last couple of days Went for indoor wall climbing with my colleagues on Tuesday and to the gym on Wednesday. So much fun. Kinda tired now though. Body aching all over.

The wall climbing on Tues was great. I was really thinking twice bout going for it since I have a fear of heights. Finally made my mind to go for it hoping that it would take my fear away. Serene’s bf was kind enough to teach me and Hanboon how to belay/climb and it was pretty useful. My first time climbing, I didn’t really know what to expect. It started off well but halfway up the 8m wall, I looked down. What happened next was I just frooze. So high… I shouted to Hanboon to slowly let me down.. Can’t climb anymore. Lol… I was suppose to let go and he will lower me down but I was so scared I just held on to the wall… ahahhaa.. kinda silly I guess. Subsequent climb to various walls went much better. I reached higher and it was reall an achievement for me… Awesome

Following day, went to the gym with Joachim. Triceps were aching by then so I worked out my shoulders instead. Nothing like a good workout. It feels good. I put on weight too 2 weeks ago, I was barely 61 kg. Now, I’m 64.5kg. Nice I had to leave the gym early though since I was meeting Erlina at 9 for a movie.

Made my way down to Milennia walk to pick Erlina up from work. Haven’t seen her for so long now and she look’s really cute. So petite Like a 17 yo kid. Hahahahhaaaa… Gave her a small gift and she was so happy She gave me a really big hug too Currently working for Fitness First, she said she’s gonna let me in the club for free. Muahahahahaa awesome Waited for a cab to go to great world city. Cab are really hard to find there. Waited for 20 mins in vain. Finally called for a cab but even he was late. Cab driver called saying he’s on the way and just after he put down the phone, an empty cab came by so we just took that instead. To make sure the other driver don’t call me, I offed my phone. Hahaha quite mean huh

Movie was all right. Not the best superman movie ever. The villian wasn’t as scheming or evil as the other superman movies I’ve seen. The effects were gd though but at some point of the show, it looks more like a love story than a super hero movie…. Movie ended past midnight and I finally made my way back home. been a real nice day. Great to meet a gd fren again. I miss her lots

Back from the Tioman trip It was fun eventhough so many unfortunate incident happened. I guess I’m just glad that even when shit happens, I have gd frens to go through it together with me. Heh… This holiday has been sort of a jinxed but nothing can describe the feeling of waking up to the sound of the soothing waves. So much better compared to waking up to the sight of traffic and tall buildings First unfortunate incident was that Omkar could not join us. These events only got more and more…

Woke up at a gravely early time of 4.45 am on friday morning. Real sleepy. Meeting up with the gang at 5.45 am at Lakeside MRT. I was late so I had to take a cab there. Reached at 5.50 and Nasir and Darwis were already there. Waited for Ashok and he was damn late. He finally came at bout 6.10 and we started rushing to get to Orchard by 6.30. Obviously we did could not make it so we stopped at tiong bahru to catch a cab. There was no cab in sight and it started raining heavily. Darwis and Nasir went to the cab stand while me and Ashok stood at the busstop. Suddennly this NS guy walked in front of us, opened his umbrella and walked out into the rain standing in front of us, also waiting for a cab. Darn… with that umbrella, he sure got a gd advantage…. He left soon after and immediately after he left, we got a cab.. phew…. what luck.. Picked Nasir and Darwis up at the cab stand and we finally made it to orchard where everyone in the bus was already waiting for us. I thought it would be a huge bus but turns out to be a mini bus only.. Crap….

Journey there was prety uneventful. Already, so many things have happened. reached there and was pleasantly surprised we managed to get a chalet right in front of the beach. Put down our things, got changed and decided to take a walk around. Had lunch and thats when Ashok decided to go kayaking. After 10 mins of kayaking, Ashok’s kayak overturned and he fell of his kayak and guee what? His specs fropped into the water and he panicked. He started to look for the specs but could not find it. We had to borrow a snorkle set from the kayak rental person to help find the specs. Spent bout 1 over hour to find it but in vain. Suddenly we realised that the paddle to his kayak is also missing. It must have sank or drifted somewhere else.. Arrrgghhhhh.. spent the next 2 hrs trying to find it but in vain too. End result? Had to pay 80 ringgit for it, Ashok is specless plus me and Nasir got cuts on our feet. Ouch…

Got back to the chalet and Ashok said he did not have any money left for the snorkling trip the next day and wanted to back out. After lots of persuasion, he agreed to split the cost of the paddle among the 4 of us. We then went to the snorkle shop and told them we wanted to change our package from the 65 bucks to the cheaper 45 bucks package.

The following day after breakfast, we went back to the snorkle shop all ready for the trip but was told that they did not have any more space for us on the cheaper package…. Shit…. After some talking with the man we informed the change to the previous night, he said we can squeeze into another boat. Thank god man.. If not, the entire trip would have been wasted. The snorkle trip was really fun. First time doing this and I’m really amazed at how beautiful the sea is So many fishes, so beautiful corals Awesome.. It was a gd experience. 1st spot we snorkled at was in the sea. The 2nd spot was at this marine park where there are tons of huge fishes. Its really scary how they all rushed at you when u try to feed them. I jumped in with a bread in my hand and they were all swarming around me like pirahnahs.. Scary shit.. Got back to the chalet at 3 and after lunch and some rest, we continued the search for the missing paddle.

We spend the next 1 hr just to go through the shallow waters. It was only knee deep so the paddle couldn’t have disappeared just like that. We stood in a line and walked from left to right. Swim actually… There sure was lots of disgusting marine life in the water. Sea cucumber, slimy sea weed, some even slimier sea stuff, lots of clams… eeewww… To think I might have stepped on a couple of those the day before. Luckily that day, all of us wore slippers in We were bout to give up when Darwis suggested we walked a bit further. We continued on and by mere conincident, there it was. The paddle right in the middle of our straight line. Darwis saw it first and shouted to everyone who started rushing over. YAY!!!!! hehehhhhh we got back our 80 bucks Well done people

Went back and with that money we got, we paid for this BBQ buffet dinner. Sounds good but it really sucks. We felt cheated by it. The food was not topped up as often as we expected and mostly, there was no food for us. Some of the dishes were not even topped up and each one was given only 2 prawns.. Damn it.. For 33 bucks per pax, I expected better. Lousy dinner.. At least it was still better than paying for a paddle. Lol… Played some risk after dinner and I won The rest gave up cos I was too powerful.. Haa!

Following morning, we got up for breakfast and then it was time to pack up and head for home. Got to the pier and the boat was late. Even when the boat finally came, it was full and we ended up having to wait till 12.15pm for the next one. It was drizzling by then and we were sitting in the open deck on the boat in the rain. The bus back home was a huge coach. Definately much better than the mini bus we cam in Finally got home at 6.30pm. It has been a very memorable holiday where everything seems to go wrong.. Hahahaha… but I’m real glad I went for it. I’m sure despite everything wrong which took place, everyone enjoyed themselves. At least I did Home sweet home…

Well no more NOMAD now since omkar is in India so whats left behind is DAMN… Hahahahaa… Anyway people, I’m going off to Tioman for the weekend. Meeting up with them at 5.45 at Lakeside station and have to take a train down to orchard… Will be away till Sun afternoon. Been a while since I go on a trip with my frens. I hope everything goes fine…

Take care everyone and have a nice weekend. And dear Adelin, Happy birthday. May your happiness last We’ve got to catch up one day Sometimes next week maybe?

Today has been a gd day. Woke up in the morning and saw there was a letter for me from Mindef. I’m finally posted back to my old unit 682 SIR. YES! I hope that I get my appointment back too. As senior medic of my batallion

Work was great. I could handle most of the things that came my way. It felt really gd. I even had free time to work on my own project and even that, I completed quite a lot of it. Went home and dad fetched me from Jurong east and I saw finally, the photo that we took at the studio. heh.. I look good in the picture I especially like the one with me and my 2 sis. It really look so natural. Hopefully I can get it up here next week

Reached home and Dad told me there’s a package for me. Its from Palm, Thailand. I’m really surprised to receive something from her.. So unexpected. It really made my day. I opened up the package and in it was a photo with the most beautiful poem I ever read written behind it. There was also a card with some message from her and a small handphone acessory. A small kitty thinghy to hang on my phone Really touched by what she wrote. At least I know somewhere out there, someone is thinking of me sometimes.. In her own style of wrtting, this was what she wrote….

I know u love cat, little kitty. hehe… so I give u 1 They come together 2 kitties when I bought it… I have 1, u have 1 ok?

Heh.. her English is so cute… I miss her. She wants me to go Thailand visit her some day Thanks Palm for your gift. I love it Tom is last day of week for me.. Can’t wait for friday..

The ache…. oh my hommie… Lol… My body ache real bad now. Thx to the intense gym session I had yesterday. Finally worked on a muscle group I’ve been neglecting all this while.. my triceps… and now it hurts like hell I feel good though.. been a while since I had a great workout.

Meeting with Asfa and Shidah on sat went pretty well. Caught the movie Benchwarmers. Funny movie staring Adam Sandler. Real funny guy cos of his face, which looks retarded. Perfect for all these goof balls type of movies Went for lunch at Swensons after that followed by dessert at Gelare.. MUahahahaha food galore.. Its real weird how I never even talked to them before when I was in JC and yet, I’m going out with them now. How we got in touch is a long long story… In fact, I don’t recall any memories of them back in JC. Maybe due to the fact that I just want to forget my entire JC life. I was a bitter kid back then. Really hated that phase of life. Going to JC was one of the biggest mistake ever for me but at this point after I’ve graduated, I don’t give a damn any more. I mended back every mistake I made

The wedding on Sun was real good. Held at Marina Mandarin hotel ballroom, the food was fantastic. Awesome.. delicious… Muahahhahaa… cost a bomb too. Bout 900 bucks per table. Multiply that by 50 table == 45k just for the food My god!!! She’s only my age.. How can she afford all these???? Now I’m really worried.. I guess my time will come eventually.. Hopefully when it does, I can do just as well

I can’t wait for this Fri. In case you guys forgot, I’m going for a short holiday to Tioman. Yeah… nice beach, great company… I’m a contented guy Hope to take lots of photos… and hope there are tons of bikini babes t00… hehhh
