yeah...im back in 1 piece!morning had ODAC training with 3sa shihan zebin ellie joyce and yy.it was just a short trek to the treetop trail and from there,we move on to bukit timah.nothing much really happened.just a short simple hike.nothing else to elaborate.After i reach Bukit timah,left the group to go for salsa lesson!!!was out too late and so din have a choice but to take a cab down to chinatown point for lessons.b4 that...bought my lunch from mac and ate it on the cab.

lessons today was pretty oki.the normal lessons were more or less revision or sort.the exciting and challenging part was the workshop that lasted 2 hrs.its was pretty difficult for me to understand.was just trying to scrap through most part of the lesson.well,the routine that they taught was pretty nice but then,it was abit too complicated and too crowded to learn any shit.well,was partnering bel most of the time.and she's kinda upset that we couldn't get it right!!!hahaha...oki...firstly i gotta admit that its my fault.cos salsa is actually all abt the lady following and the male leads.so its more or less im the one that screw up everything.well,though i suffered a little setback this time round,i think my interest in the dance is still there.the movements were damn damn nice and i realli like it alot.give mi a little more time and i'll try to become a better leader.after lessons,rushed over to tiong bahru after grabbing my avocado juice and 2 spring rolls.jiang gave mi ride over to the CC and we started playing with the guys.we trashed them for the first 2 sets and from the 3rd set onwards,we were trying out stuff and not really taking things very seriously cos they're kinda weak to play against with.the kick wasn't there and so we were more of playing afool.the rest of the sets we won but until the last set.we lost.but we played a duce game.it was bad but i couldn't comment too much on it.i was at fault too.after the game,had proper dinner at tiong bahru market and jiang gave mi a ride back home.thanx bro.

well,today im just disappointed with the attendance for the odac training.i just have a feeling ppl wanna go for expedition and doesn't wanna train.mayb im just being over suspicious.i hope i M and they're seriously training on their own too.but there's still certain things that i cant accept at the moment.i hope im SERIOUSLY WRONG for my judgement.if im RIGHT,i'll be seriously disgusted.haizz...

nothing really happened today.all i did was went down for the ALIVE session at Gracehaven.We rehearse the games that the boys have come out with for the MINDS trainees.They were pretty enthusiatic about it and they were quite thoughtful in a sense by putting themselves in the shoes of those trainees.Modifying the games and rules to suit their needs.well,though im one of the game masters that's suppose to be present on the actual day,i just realise that its going to be held on the 20th of may!!!the weekend im going diving.so i guess i can't join the boys to help out on that day.but im pretty sure that they can do it well.after the session,went with the volunteers down to J8's pastamania for lunch and went home right after that.im so boring rite?

do i really know not look like im 21 this yr?how come the volunteers were like saying that the first time they met me they thought im like say around 25!!!omg...im like HELLO!!!im not even 21 yet.well,treated it as a compliment i would say but then,i don't want be seen as a 25 old man!!!hahahaha...i guess i just have to attributed to my dark tan which supposingly made me look older bah.please tell me im NOT OLD!!!

arghz...i've actually just managed to clean my keyboard completely.as in take out all the keys and wipe the wholeboard!!!took more than an hour oki?cause my "dearest" cousin actually spilt soyabean onto my keyboard this morning and he didn't even dare to tell me about it until i come to realise that why my table was kinda sticky and smells bad.i really had a hard time trying to clear up the mess man.i seriously need a break man.

tml will be super long day!ODAC training in the morning,afternoon dance lessons and evening volleyball match till nite.i wonder how im gonna survive.hopefully i still can absorb whatever is being taught in class tml!and hell...i haven't completed my book yet and its due this tues.Im so dead.well,i think i'll start working next wed bah.for the sake of money to feed my unlimited wants,NO CHOICE!!!i should slowly cut down on my honeymoon kinda attitude now cause i think i will suffer the moment school starts.im looking forward to this day.plus,im approximately 1 mth away from my PINK IC.my 2yrs 2mths seems to pass like a flash of lightning man.i can't wait to regain my civilian status.not that im really bothered by the colour of my IC...hahaha

I CLUBBED!!!just yesterday,i broke my "no clubbing regime" ever since last yr.well,went to Dbl O with kenneth's 2 frenz namely suyi and mag.i was there the earliest but the crowd wasn't hyper enugh.then kenneth arrived and needed to get some food.so we went to the coffeeshop nearby to eat.at the same time,we order beer cause its so much damn CHEAPER out of the club!!!well,then kenneth's fren came and join us.the two of them were quite chatty and full of shit.we played some guessing games and in fact i kept making mag having to drink.well,i din forget my duty for the nite.that is to help kenneth to take care of the 2 of them and try to prevent them from getting drunk.so when kenneth got mi for the guessing game,i drank huge gulps such that our drinks will finish ASAP and the girls wont get more to drink.it helped by ending the game faster.by then i was pretty high but still manageable.in fact we were still helping to ensure the 2 girls can walk straight lahz!hahaha.well,we had a wonderful nite crapping and im gonna see suyi again cos she's going diving with mi and kenneth.mag was suppose to join us but in the end something happened and she couldn't go.well,it was fun clubbing with them.and when i got home,i kinda have a slight headache lolz.drank too much for the nite and not enugh sleep.

woke up in the morning and prepare to meet sean to go to PP to shop for the abseiling equipments.was kinda very tempted to get my personal harness and climbing shoes lolz.but i told myself i dun have money liao lahz...then we sat down and discuss the plans for our adventure club.im beginning to feel the excitement and i seriously hope wat we're gonna kickstart will help us soar man.im gonna get so busy,probably liasing the other projects on hand and also getting ready the banners and distributing the mails out to attract participants.after that,came home and prepare to go for volleyball training with the MOE teachers.today din really played well.firstly i think its partly because of the alcohol that's still in my blood.secondly,i kinda let emotions took over the way i played.so was pretty slack just now and lost the last few games.im feeling so weak mentally.this shouldn't be happening and yet i let it happen.i feel so screwed man.arghz...shall go rest now and prepare to go for the games rehearsal at GH tml.

im feeling pretty disappointed and pretty upset for the fact that the girls team lost to PJC.From my point of view,CJ was better than PJ in terms of skills and strength.But wat went terribly wrong was the lack of communication,encouragement and support from team mates while playing.It was obviously the deciding factor that cost them the game which could jolly well bring them to the next round.well,im very disappointed cause they really stand a very good chance but they gave it away.wat was good was that ODAC actually ran to CCAB to give them their support.The cheers did help and i felt the school spirit in a sense.Its really nice if CJ could have more students giving support as and when there's any competition.Wat was comforting is the match that i watched AJ and HC playing.The game standard was pretty high,communication was there,encouragement was there,players were very composed and long rallies were played.Besides watching the game,i must say that some of these girls look pretty good.esp the AJC no 1 and 2.they're tall average looking but they displayed a very cool side of them being one of the 2 most impt players in their team.HC also had 3 of my eyecandies.not too bad...afterall,its worth rushing down in a cab from camp after my FFI today.im wondering if i should go and catch the volleyball action even though CJ is not longer in the tournament.anywayz,i've come to a conclusion that i seriously need to get a job to feed my desires.i need money to go for more courses!i wanna learn more stuff!!!looks like i have no choice but to work with banglahs soon.

To all CJ volleyball(girls)=dun be too upset.i've been there done that.understand your feelings man!but all you can do now is pick up and carry on with life.ur next impt thing is,do well for As.U've done your best!we all know.

im HAPPY...firstly,CJ won TP today.though it wasn't really spectacular,but im proud of the guys!at least i saw one winning match man.tml will be the girls turn.im praying for them rite now cos i might not be able to catch them in action tml.hopefully my FFI finish earli sia.then i'll rush down to support them.after their match,i took a slow jog from CCAB at Dunearn road back to AMK.not bad,its been a long long time since i've jogged.

well,went home for dinner before going down to CC for my adventure club's meeting.at least now we're getting some where.came up with the calendar of events and delegated jobs to various ppl.im in charge of the courses like 1 star kayaking and sportsclimbing.well...just managed to churn out the emails to send out for quotations!hopefully they get back to me asap.

REINA:good bye and have fun...dun worry about things here in SG!!!

Kenneth:thx for arranging the diving trip thingy...u're the man.

well,time to go to sleep liaoz.tml still got FFI in camp...hopefully they finish it fasT!!!i wanna catch the girls in action tml!PLEASE win the game and get into the second round!u girls can do it one.

i dunno wat's wrong with my blog man.jus couldn't published it for the past few days!!!arghz...now that the problem have been solved,this is gonna be a long long post( i think)~!

just last sunday was a freaking long day but its definitely less exhausting as compared to the previous few days!it started off in the early morn at climb adventure.went there for my ASOP course.was suppose to do both abseiling and sportsclimbing on that day.it started with abseiling whereby im already more than certified to do what they're doing.but no doubt its nothing to show off abt especially when it comes to high elements cause once you yaya and do something wrong,that could be the end of you!was so looking forward to the sportsclimbing part but in the end,i couldn't attend the afternoon session due to my dance lesson.so i just joined the rest of the participants for lunch over at maxwell market.the one thing that i actually benefited from this session is to expand my social circle plus expanding my database.managed to get down some of their contacts so that if i happen to have any lobang can approach them!well i hope they'll do the same(i doubt not).next to my dance lesson.it was fun though im getting slower bit by bit,maybe im mentally exhausted but i think that shouldn't be an excuse.the greatest weakness in man is either not to admit their mistakes or simply find excuses to make them feel better in covering up their weaknesses.i'll try to improve on that.for dance,we learn a new routine but also because of that,our progression was slowed down by this uncle who keeps doing mistakes.at some point in time im pretty frustrated!then we also had a mini test whereby the instructor made one pair by one pair take the centre stage while he spot us for mistakes.luckily i din screw up man!hahaha...well,after lesson we actually signed up for the workshop this coming sunday!20bucks onli!cheap cheap!!!hahaha...well,im more interested to learn more stuff though.after dance,rushed down to windermere for peishan's bday celebration.almost slept in the train lahz.well,the celebration was alright with a couple of close friends coming together for the bbq.after which,im pretty lucky to have dajie giving me a ride home!!!hahaha...that's the plus point of staying next to the 4zhi's cos we can always share cab home or even hitch a free ride home with them.hahaha...

MON.terrible,woke up feeling abit sick liaoz.no doubt i still went down to CCAB to support the girls team yesterday.they played JJ yesterday but from wat i see,they were not up to their usual self.mayb the lack of composure.they got trashed i would say.well,i've went there super early to catch other teams playing too.generally,the girls standard have improved while the guys standard dropped!!!and i notice that vball girls nowadays are either very tall or they take over the shape of elephants.(better players i mean).they generally have more strength in their spikes nowadays making the rallies much enjoyable for the spectators.well,all in all,i do hope the girls will win PJ tml but i doubt i'll be able to make it to support them as i have to go back to camp for medical.but i do hope that i will be able to rush down tml for their game bah.well,after their game,i actually joined smith and coach to coffee lolz.after awhile coach gave mi a ride out to the bus stop.on the way to the bus stop,he was like asking mi where im going to.then when i said NTU he tot he would see me again thinking that i might join volleyball.well,i seriously dun have any idea if im gonna join volleyball cos i have 2 CCAs that i have in mind liaoz.i seriously hope to make the best out of everything man.in fact there's another CCA that i might consider joinin too!argh...i duno!hopefully my mind can be more discipline and tuned to studying la.my frenz keeps warning me not to be too involved in CCA esp when im in engine.i know they mean well but i think i'll just die not going for CCAs.will take things one at a time and see how things goes.one good thing is that coach actually wanted to help mi liase with someone from hall 6 to get me to play vball for them so that i'll definitely get into hall6.but then,i din really asked him for help.will see how things goes.well...im off to support the guys for their last game with tpjc.i've this bad feeling they can't win lahz.but well,it doesn't matter.

its another shag day and its finally over.today was my first training for titiwangsa expedition.woke up early to go back to CJ for the training.the initial plan was to do circuit training and should consists 3 chapters!within each chapters,there are 3 sets to do.and each set of exercises goes like this at first.firstly,2 rounds of track then come back for 30 pushups and 30situps.then to end off one set,its suppose to be 5 grandstands.after completing each chapter,we've got a surprise challenge up for us created by our dear PTI!!!well,we managed to complete the first chapter together with the 3 sets of 8 pull ups as our warming up and 2 rounds track.after the first chapter we decided to reduce the intensity cause its pretty hot and we're pretty shagged out liaoz.it suppose to be PROGRESSIVE training!!!hahahaha...well,the first surprise challenge was for the girls to run 1 round the track with the guys chasing after them by running with our backs facing the front.well,off course we lost man.and its super shag lahz.wat's worse was that there were some banglah grass cutters at the field looking at us with that cheeky grinz on their face when we guys were running backwards.
after that we decided to cut to 1 round track,20 situps and pushups each and 3 grandstands.until we complete the 3sets for sec chapter,we had the 2nd challenge.the guys will run round the track but hopping with one leg while the girls will run backwards.this time round the guys won.its really very very tiring.after which we decided to cut the 3rd chapter firstly due to the fact that we're too tire and secondly it was getting abit late.so tat's the end of the first training that i attended.

after training,i went down to graceheaven to take a look at the carnival and managed to buy a pair of adidas track pants which cost mi 10bucks!!!it was a good deal man.then went home thinking that i can go to sleep for awhile before heading to mel's party.in the end,kenneth dragged mi out of bed to go for the Asia Diving Expo and we went there to search for any cheap deals for our dive course and we managed to find one.well,now we're suppose to wait for kenneth to go make the deposit next week and i shall be off diving next mth.so lookin forward to this.anywayz,after the ADEX,we went over to lek's haagen dazz to look for him and have some ice cream.waited for him to knock off and we took a cab down to mel's place.the party was not too bad.did some catching up here and there...after which now im back home blogging this before turning in for the night cos i have lessons tml!its yet another full day of action.im tire but im happy.serious...looking forward to dance lessons tml and going to ps's bday party tml!gotta go back to camp to pick up some stuff too.ciaoz...

today's a tiring day!went to CCAB to support the guys team and sad to say,they lost.well,its kinda expected!!!i saw my ex coach there and saw one of the referree for my game yesterday there too!conclusion,its a small small world.generally,the competition standard kinda dropped as compared to our year and i mean business.the players were less aggressive in their spikes and serving and were practically bumping the ball ard waiting for opponent to make mistakes.its no longer that exciting anymore!!!well,so far i've seen the supposingly powerhouse like AJ and NY played...but they were not up to my expectations.yet to catch tj in action as well as HCI.well,besides catching the match over there,saw a couple of eye candies from NY.i suppose they're in the vball team as well.anywayz,the point is that one of them actually looks exactly like the sister of another NY female vballer for our batch!!!well...next mon will be the girls team in action.i'll probably go there to catch the first match till the last and see if our girls stand a chance.tues will be the guys turn to play their final match against TPJC and its a game of pride i would say.since they're already out of the sec round,they've to win this to save some pride!!!

well,after the match,went back to CJ to train!played against the guys team again and seriously,i was quite sian playing them cos they were like not in the mood to play anymore.it seems to me they're very unprofessional at some point in time whereby they dun even treat the game seriously.nothing much happened but i can feel that im improving my quick spike with weejim.how i wish he didn't retain in yr 1 and joined vball earlier.he would have become our main setter and we definitely stand a chance!well,after training in sch,mi wee jim and ms smith went over to CCAB again to train with the MOE team.not bad cos i managed to try out my left hand spiking.its definitely improving but then,its not because i really wanna train my left hand.i used my left hand cos i SPRAINED my thumb!!!super painful and wat's more,i've 2 semi broken toe nails man!and tml will be odac titiwangsa expedition's circuit training.i hope i wont really need my thumb.as for my legs,no choice but to try and take the pain if there's any when running bah!!!im really enjoying myself nowadays!

woahz...just came home from the ICG2006 match against west coast CSC.well,we lost just as expected.at first we were leading against the other team but after a time out,things changed.we lost 2 straight sets to them but im not surprise.there's only very little i can do and i think i tried my best to do watever i can liaoz.managed to put in a few points for the team too.it was a pretty nice experience even though its not realli a volleyball team i would say.but no doubt,there's benefits with it and i did not expect any except a proper jersey.well,i was given match allowance of 10 bucks...not bad and i had free transport by cab too!drinks were on the house and a free mizuno jersey too!!!

i wish my CJ juniors all the best tml for their match.and im gonna be so hardcore tml for training near to 7 hrs tml liaoz!looking forward to it man.and definitely river valley prata shop.hahahah...

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

yoz...im back from my first assignment!!!for this post,im gona tag mostly on the camp that i've assigned to help out.generally,its my first time working as a camp instructor whereby the rest of the probably 10 yrs before this,i was always a voluntary camp instructor for my Community Club.No doubt there's culture difference and meeting up of different kinds of ppl driven by monetary benefits.But i really did enjoyed myself for this camp even though i think its abit different from wat i do.i forgot if i actually mentioned this before,the instructor to camper ratio for my CC's camp is actually 1 is to 5 or less but for this camp im working for,its actually 1 is to 22 for my group.which means im the onli instructor taking care of my whole bunch of "monkeys".but im glad i got a good mirror group buddy whose experience enough to help me along since im a newbie there.from the camp,i got to know quite a no of new frenz and they're all damn crappy and nice ppl.but then off course,there will be one or 2 which doesn't give mi a good impression man.

let's start with day 1.

gotta wake up damn early to rush to the primary sch in clementi before 7am so that my pay won't be deducted!!!ended up reaching there early and the camp com was late.we went up to the hall and read out the names of those that's assigned to my group.after which,we took the chartered buses with a specific class to go to jalan bahtera campsite.along the way,i was enjoying myself chatting up with those boys on the bus.did i forgot to mention that they're all P5 students?hahaha...well,from the conversation,i realise that the kids studying in the school should most probably be those coming from a pretty well to do kinda families.or the bare minimal,average income families.can feel that some of them are pretty arrogant and kinda spoilt due to their respective family backgrounds.well upon arriving at the campsite,we split the kids into different groups and there i somehow gotta be independant and follow the flow of the program.for the first day,we gotta do icebreakers and let the kids come up with their own group names and draw up their group flags.the bunch of kids i've got was pretty difficult to handle cos they're all pretty icy in a sense.but still,we managed to squeeze everything in and do things in time.sometimes i really gotta force the kids to take my ideas and seriously speaking the kids ain't that spontaneous as the ones that i have my CC's camp.they were slow in learning cheers and seriously speaking,the leaders of the group ain't that impressive as the ones that i have from my CC's camp.mayb its also the upbringing and the attitude they have for the camp.it most probably because they're forced by the school to go for the camp.after which we had lunch.the camp was different in a sense that their meals are being catered by food caterers in buffet style.first day lunch was a flop cos there wasn't enough for the kids and they had to "ration" it.and since the kids din have enough,it also meant that the instructors dun have enough food to go around too.it was nice that kevin,kf's fren that was my ex cj junior helped mi to save some food for me which i was helping out with the kitchen duties.but its pretty pathetic that i onli had a plate of vegetables which i dun eat at all with one small cube of chicken WITHOUT rice.was damn sian but i knew i've got no choice but to finish it since the activities after lunch is pretty exhausting.well at this point in time,im almost quite sure of the boys' name for my group.after lunch we are suppose to go for abseiling,general station games and kayaking.abseiling was not too bad but they weren't taught the proper way to go down and we din get to do the general stations due to the rain.however,they were pretty lucky the rain stopped in time for them to go kayaking.however the instructor in charge of the kayaking station din wanted to give them to kayak out on their own.they were pretty disappointed until the teacher try to negotiate witht he instructor to let them kayak out for awhile.then they only had a very short water time and they brought the boats back to wash.after which dinner was served and this time there was a slight improvement on the qty lol.but still the kids couldn't have a second helping unlike ours.after which we had our night activity and they kids had lotsa fun.i actually tried to help them along the way by simplifying the stations.they were pretty enthu abt it.afterwhich gotta debrief them then they had supper and slept.after which we had a short instructors debrief as compared to mumbo's.it ended alot faster than i expected.slept at ard 2am plus and got woken up by the kids by 645am though they were suppose to wake up earliest at 7am.the funniest thing is that they were sleeping on huts on the sec storey while some of the instructors were sleeping beneath them.since they were told that they can onli wake up at 7am,there was this boy that was from my hut that needed to pee urgently.knowing that we were sleeping beneath,he actually woke up at 6plus and try to tip toe pass us hoping tat we dun see him and catch him waking up before 7am.after he pass us,he ran immediately to the toilet.it was damn funny.besides that,from beneath,we could hear the kids saying oei..haven 7 o clock yet,dun go down...instructors sleeping downstairs!!!hahahaha...damn funny lahz.

2nd day
2nd day was pretty good.the bonding btw my kids and me were enhanced.we had zipline or challenge pole as well as rock wall to do for today.we also had to prepare the kids for campfire performance.the kids had fun but complained that they weren't able to complete everything.its made worse when the rain came and their confidence rope course was cut.it could be the highlight for them and yet they din managed to do it.instead we went over to do nitro crossing and they had fun though it was abit muddy.then we had campfire.did a major group cheer which last abt 10mins consecutively without stopping.super xiong but it was good...first time doing combo cheers.after which had some small talk session with my group members.aft which they went to sleep.well...there's nothing much abt the camp program anymore but 1 thing which i realli enjoyed was the fact that i had fun with the kids and im glad they too had fun with me ard.in fact,my presence was not onli felt in my group.children from my mirror group also remembered mi.i even had campers asking for my no and email add but i couldn't give it to them.it was the coy's policy.anywayz,there's a couple of campers that i really like cos they're so bubbly and fun.and they really made my day crapping with me having fun and being thankful.they are mostly from my group.(yue ling,a grade 8 pianist erhu instructor @ age 11)(vivan,small cute bubbly and loves to disturb me but she's really very cute and petite)(samathan,rachelle,huigeok,sarah,deirdre etc)(sigmund,markus,bill,zhi heng,si yuan)all this kids from my group are damn nice to me lah and most imptly,they're very obedient.there's also afew from my mirror group that i like having them around.(alexandra whose damn cute and flirty,cassandra whose always quarrelling with bill from my group,jason whose very naughty from the 1st day but as u noe him he just gets better and listens to wat u have to say.)well,when they were up on the bus preparing to go home,i was feeling abit sad liaoz cos they're leaving me and i dunno when im gonna see them again.but the heart warming thing is that when group 1 and 2 were boarding the bus,they were like coming to me and say bye bye kor kor,bye bye instructor unlike the all the groups that left before them.i feel a sense of bonding with the kids even though its just 2 1/2 days.in fact i think im one of the few that the kids came to me and say good bye personally to me.the best thing is i even have campers coming from other group to say bye to me.i felt a sense of achievement i must say.as their bus left,i recalled the times i spent with all my cuties having fun building bonds,resolving quarrels,teaching them valuable lesson,having some small talk sessions with them.i really MISS my campers.as for now,just gotta wait and see if there's any more camps coming up that i can go help out with.well,after the kids left the campsite,it was the instructors turn.we squeeze ard 20ppl into a small van together with our bags to go out to Jurong Point.the ride was super fun.as for the instructors that i've gotta to noe them,i realli enjoyed myself cos they're very nice and outgoing type of ppl.after which i came to this conclusion that i think the fun is wat i expect more from the camp rather than the pay.the pay is just another benefit that i'll get and i enjoy playing with the kids and having fun with instructors too.besides,i actually saw RUTH,the project superstar contestant in real life for the camp.she's actually an old timer instructor too.in fact she looks very very different from wat you see on tv man.i really look forward to going for other camps man.hopefully veron will keep me updated.ahahaha...i look forward to working with the rest of the instructors too.well,i also must thank my buddy instructor whose also my major group A ic plus my mirror group buddy as well as the camp's best instructor!!!he taught me alot of things and i realli enjoyed slacking with him when time permits and doing all those crazy shit together.cheers...

well,after we finished lunch at JP,i took a cab back to CJ to play volleyball with the rest of the guys.super shagged but fun.interacted with them abit more and im gonna support the guys for their match this fri.i've gotta stop here liaoz cos i've got so so so many things to do right now.gotta work on certain thingy liaoz...shall blog more when i have the time.

shagged...super shagged!all i can say is i had fun today!though i not familiar with the ppl there today,i had lotsa fun.first was kayaking at Bedok reservoir park.it was my first time trying out kayaking at the reservoir itself.the highlight of the kayaking component was the 1km race.well,i came in sec for the whole entire 8 kayaks.in fact,there's actually 3 single kayak and im one of them lahz.not bad ahz...well,i was telling myself to paddle properly or rather,training for the ATC coming up soon on the kayaking component!not bad not bad...at least my strokes are still pretty efficient.

after kayaking,we took a van to east coast sea sports club for the windsurfing orientation.it was damn fun lahz.though we keep capsizing.its damn difficult to control the sail and stuff but i enjoy trying to balance on the sail trying to surf using the wind...its damn tiring capsizing and getting back up on the surf board.after which,u gotta use some strength to get the sail up to the right position again.well,SHAGGED!!!hahahaa...anywayz,tml will be the volleyball game liaoz!i hope the team have more than enough players to play for them so that they wont need to field me in to play.ahahahaha...firstly i doubt i have the ability to play well tml cos im super shagged and secondly,i din even have a chance to train with them at all.so wat's the point when we dunno one another well.im tired and i shall stop here for now.gotta rest well for the game tml and the dance "test" tml lehz!stressed...

ohhh...not feeling very good!!!i feel lousy.it seems that im not performing up to my expectations.yesh...its all because of volleyball!well,maybe i haven been giving my best and that could explain the results.anywayz,bumped some balls at CCAB today instead of going to sentosa due to the rain.was playing the ladies net and though i could get all my spikes over,i feel that im not achieving the optimal jump height that im suppose to jump for a guys net.wat made it worse was the fact that we're playing with ladies lahz.i mean i cannot bear to actually spike the ball with all my might into them.so i've been reducing my strength to a point whereby i couldn't get back the feel of a solid spike and i kinda dragged my timing!well,though i have quite abit of hang time,it doesn't realli matter cos im playing balls like a gay!so soft and not powerful enough.well,im still thinking if i should continue to join them for training just to get free coaching!ahaha...well,another thing to add to my misery is the fact that during the game,i broke my toe nail.its broken but not completely.im deciding not to take it out for the fact that im having seasports lessons tml and the fact that i have dance lesson on sunday and camp from mon to wed...hopefully it doesn't give mi too much prob till next wed bah. im tired...ciaoz....

i feel so NOOB!!!this is bad man!well,i've been to the camp briefing today.actually,im still kinda lost.that's probably the way they do things or what i usually do for camps is pretty different rite now.i hope i won't screw it up cause im actually recommended by one of my frens to go help out.and going by traditional ways,im suppose to undergo training as an attachie if im new to the company(unpaid).i should count myself lucky now.as we were going through some of the programs,games,cheers,songs and claps,i feel rather weird for the fact that i've actually nv hear of some of the things they're gonna use.so,after doing so so many years of camps,im back to stage one.Tonnes of things for me to learn and im gettin kinda excited.i guess now the other thing i would need to do is to blend into the instructors family in order for me to know more ppl as well as have more fun.im quite sure this would be a brand new experience for me.now i gotta try to remember the stations and instructions that goes along with it.gotta work on my cheers and ice breaking games.stress lahz...but i think im gonna have fun man!its time to work towards something(best instructor)...ahahaha...i'll try my best work towards getting that award.though this is my first time and it will be hard i suppose,but i'll not give UP!!!WORK HARD!!!

anywayz,before going for the briefing today,went to check out my asics shoe size and finally got it rite.after which,met up with sean at penuinsular plaza to check out prices of those abseiling equipments etc.as we were shopping for those equipments,a bagpack managed to catch my eye!the material is super tough and the color was pretty good.its an american brand(indigo) and it freaking costs $432.im seriously very tempted to get it.its more on the durability of the bag that attracted me.well...it time to check out other bags and see if any other bags suits wat i wan...DURABILITY!!!toughnesss too....hopefully i can find enough jobs to supplement my spending power for these stuff.

went back to cj today with a super weak shell!!!couldn't really play the usual vball that i use to play.super low morale also...well,but the good thing is the fact that i saw sarah!!!hahahaha...julian and her was back in cj juz to run to turf city to support CJ for some cross country meet i suppose.then today played vball with the usual grp of ppl as well as 4 others from the coach's side!super tiring lahz...after which rushed down to meet sean and gang that's going to ophir tml to get stuff.after which went back to cc to collect the stores for their trip.its good to see that at least we have our first 2 sets of tents and some stove heads and canisters.but im quite disappointed for the fact that they went and made the purchase without mi!!!haizz...if i were there,i would have strongly go against the idea of buying the cheaper stove head!(the one without safety valve!!!)but well,since they've bought it,then just too bad.i can only blame myself for not keeping myself update with what's done or what's not done.anywayz,the prob is the baywatch thing.at this rate at which things are going,i seriously doubt the ability of the chairmen for this event!since he doesn't bother to push ppl to submit stuff,shall just see how he's gonna suffer.i doubt the event can be done before the elections man.and damn,the elections also creates a form of indirect trouble for us for the fact that new boundaries might be drawn and the ppl involved in our program will be affected!!!haizz...im seriously lost!anywayz,tml i shall go and check out my asics shoe size as well as the price of various equipments that we're going to get!!!im getting busy man...and i can't wait for the upcoming camp!its been a long long time since i've go for camps liaoz!but then again,it mean that i cant go to give my support for the guys team playing against AJ on mon.well,its probably a trashing match i would say but then,im lucky that i wont be missing out on matches that CJ stands a chance winning!!!hahaha...ironically,its the girls team that stands a much higher chance of proceeding 2nd round!and i heard ppl saying that im pessimistic!!!im not...im just being realistic.i just cant stand ppl being over confident and wat's worse is that they dun even have a bare minimum standard to be cocky and be confident.please wake up from ur dreams and it seems im always the one being the bad guy telling them negative stuff.i understand that no one likes to hear negative comments but then again,to get trashed after being over confident makes u feel worse isn't it?and it's probably this that differentiates u guys from odac peeps.be humble please...and most imptly be realistic!im so tire...so many things to do but so little timeeee...dun waste it on sleeping guys,cherish every secs u hav cos you wont actually noe when u're gonna spend ur last sec....

hohoho...i went for dental appointment in camp this morning!!!and its during the appointment that i found out that i've actually got 2 wisdom tooth that's already out...so was quite worried abt it giving mi problems...but the doc reassured mi that they won't cause they growing very well(straight) and that i should have no problems with brushing them clean!however,he also mentioned that he can't see the top 2 and can't predict if they're even gonna come out.hahaha...so he did some simple polishing on my tooth and its seriously irritating to hear the zzZZZZ-ing sound and water spraying within your mouth!but after all,its worth it cause for at least the next half of the yr i won't have to spend money to visit the dentist!!!ahahaha....anywayz,managed to find something interesting for me to work liaoz.and at the same time,i've actually told my uncle im not gonna help him out yet for the fact that im freaking busy this mth with volleyball training,courses to attend etc.so i told him i might consider going to help him next mth.well,i've gotten my first assignment to help out as a camp instructor.im realli getting very hype up by this man.haven been to a camp as someone that's being paid!hahaha...plus the fact that it might be more difficult to handle but i think i should not have too much a prob.gotta go down for a pre camp briefin this thurs and next mon will be the camp.now i can onli focus on getting well ASAP so that i can perform!!!hahaha...
okie,jus met up with alvan this evening to play pool.i think i seriously cant perform today lah.the flu is realli getting on my nerves cos i couldn't concentrate!and to think that k-pool keep blasting techno music away makes me feel even more irritated and lost all my concentration!!!well,then i resort to blasting my MP3 player away which gave mi a slight boast on my shots.anywayz,i jux feel damn unwell but well,i believe my body will be alright soon!was talking to alvan about wat happened in salsa class and abt the tea dance party and beginner's competition.then he was like asking if im gonna join the comp anot.well,that's a pretty good question but instead of giving him the answer,i asked him a question instead."whose gonna go join and who will partner me?"hahahaha...anywayz,im still considering if i should go anot.i reckon that i might not even have the time to train with so so many things coming up!well,im pretty sure i wanna go for the salsa workshop and im going to check if i'll be able to get a special rate for it.hahaha...hope so bah...will see how things goes and mayb if im joining,i'll drag kenneth to come along!!!hahaha...looking forward to going back to CJ to play volleyball tml!though im still sick,i hope nothing goes wrong tml...juz wanna have a nice game and wait for the weekend to come!i hope the guys will be going to beach this fri man.i gues that's the onli day i can go unless im going this sunday after dance lessons~!ahahaha...mus make them play sia.!!!i miss the beach man...

im down!!!feeling super sick esp this morning when i woke up.was suppose to report for work today but end up going to the doc for med.anywayz,before i touch on anything for today,here's a little update of what happened yesterday!

as usual,didn't join the guys to the beach cos i have dance lessons!lesson today was pretty fun with mi fooling around.cos for the first time,there was a shortage of girls!so im like quite sway in a sense cos most of the time when they were dancing with music,i was dancing with an imaginary partner!!!and damn...its pretty difficult to to visualise in a sense dancing with no one!!!hahaha...we learnt a new step and practise some variations!its so fun.well,there's gonna be this tea party that the studio is holding and im wondering if i should go there and take a look and dance and pick up some new stuff!besides this,im considering of enrolling myself for the new salsa workshop that's coming up cos its more on leading and some other stuff.shall check out if there's the discounted price!!!hahaha...after lessons,kenneth was nice enough to give me and bel a ride to amk after his supposinly 10min business that he gotta settle.he showed us to the brothels of tanjong pagar.then he send bel home before heading down to k-pool for a short pool session before driving me home again.came home super shagged and couldn't concentrate on doing my stuff and so went to sleep pretty early thinking that i can endure and pull through to report to work.however i was wrong...went to see a doc,then met up with my mum and sis for lunch before heading to library to grab 2 books.after which, i actually stayed home to catch bleach and detective academy q all the way till dinner time.well,tml still gotta report back to camp for appointment and wed shall be the day im going for work!im intending to ask for a half day off so that i can go back to cj to help train the vball guys as well as train myself for the upcoming inter constituency games!!!its this SUN and freaking hell,there aint any training sessions!!!i wonder if im still playing anot man.the conveyor din even call mi but he said that he registered my name liaoz...im so lost...and how come he ain't doing anything!!!hopefully the rest of the team mates have actually played with one another before.anywayz,wat im looking forward to would be the dance lesson lahz.hahaha...may sunday pop by asap!

2 days of complete action!!!super tired...but feeling shiok at the same time!well,yesterday(fri) i actually went back to CJ once again after going to beach road to get my day pack,to play a friendly match between the current boys and girls with my team mates.we din really get to play in our team cos the coach seperated us to 2 different sides to play with the guys and girls.started playing in CJ from 2pm till ard 7pm before heading down to CCAB(ex smu campus) to continue playing volleyball till 10pm!!!its a full 8 hours of volleyball lah!damn tire.well,we actually went down to CCAB as we were told by ms smith that the MOE team is training over there and since i haven been playing indoors,i tot why not just go give it a try since its free.well,it was pretty fun over there even though there wasn't any girls around!hahaha...its more of like aunties!!!but those teachers were damn damn friendly and there's this teacher that's a coach too!wat i like abt her is that she's willing to give pointers to help us improve.wat's even better is that its freE!!!hahaha...after playing for awhile,suddenly a group of girls came!young girls...hahaha,they are actually students of a certain teacher.but the point is not abt the girls.we noticed that there's this malay boy that came together with them.they actually belong to hua yi sec(current/old).they were here to play volleyball as well.so we actually spoke to the boy name alif!im actually quite impressed by wat i've heard.this guy is some passionate about volleyball that he din mind joining his school girls for training despite not having a guys team.so he was the onli malay boy training with the rest of the girls team.and its pretty unusual for a malay boy to be interested in volleyball as volleyball is actually quite dominated by chinese.his super willing to train and is passionate abt the sports.he even expressed interest to come over to CJC after O's just to join volleyball!!!im so super impressed!besides him,i notice there's this super tall girl,an ex student.she's like taller than mi i think and she realli have the strength to spike man!hahaha...so we actually played some games rotating with different players.all i did was i played a new position yesterday!instead of a open spiker,i played centre!!!super fun.anywayz,after the game,we went over to the PRATA CAFE right opposite CCAB!waited abt 40mins before our orders were being taken down.after which,it took them 40 mins to come up with the first prata and he actually had the cheek to tell us that the mee goreng and watever that's not prata could not be served as they're super busy!at that moment im damn damn pissed.but we still politely say we cancel all our orders and we just left the place.well,this will definitely be the first and last time im gonna go to that freak cafe to eat lah.the service quality is damn damn damn lousy!so we went to river valley prata shop instead and had a great time.the food was good esp my maggi pattaya and the maggi tom yam!!!delicious!!!me guanyou and weejim had a great time chatting with ms smith also!ahahaha...currently we're actually planning to venture out and look for ppl to train with for indoor games!i think im really super into this sports man!i really enjoy playing volleyball!!anywayz,that's besides the point...ahaha...so after finishing dinner at ard 12am,took a cab home from river valley and i had a super dangerous ride home!the cab driver was driving damn agressively!he almost collided with a tuscani in the CTE tunnel!!!lucky mi,he actually knock right into the tuscani's side view mirror.and his mirror ended up titled inwards and he couldn't use his left side view mirroR!!i was like HELLO!!!are u sure u can see?ahahaha...even without his side view mirror,he was driving damn fast and trying to overtake here and there.all i could done was just pray that i get home safe and sound.but the time i got home it was like ard 1230am and took a quick bath and went to sleep at ard 1plus.and to think that i gotta wake up this morning at 5:50am.super shagged!!!cos i actually couldn't get to sleep last nite!besides that,onli had "4hours of tossing and turning sleep time",and having played 8hrs of volleyball the day before,i dragged myself out of bed to meet with lek kelvin and zebin at kranji mrt @ 7am.well,i was onli 5 mins late this time round!when i reached,i was told that zebin was at admiralty and he realised that he didn't bring his passport~!!!and his turning back to go back home(bishan) to take and meet us later.so we actually went over to malaysia to have our breakfast at the mac over at CITY SQUARE!sat there and waited like till ard 9plus before he came.then i was like,if i knew,i could have slept another 2 freaking hrs man.well,after we met up,took a bus to kota town like wat we did last week and took a cab to the plantation entrance.this time round we had no choice but to climb over the fence as no one was around to open the gate for us.so went climbed over and started walking along the route to the trail head.this time round we brought along tape to mark our route out.stopped over at certain places for photos and we took damn long to get to the top.and today,we realised that we were actually abt 17mins away from where we turned back last week due to the weather conditions.the top of the waterfall is rather very very spacious.in fact,we can actually fit a few sch's population to camp at the summit.at the top,we can see small shrimps swimming in the river.we even had a screening of big foot.ask lek for the video cliP!!!Hahaha...after we reached the top,its acutually damn huge and we started exploring.we also saw dark clouds gathering around our area and we decided to do a traverse for the trip but going the fall-less way!(4wd route)....so we descended using the route and got down in exactly 45min.after which we got out of the plantation and got ourselves a cab to get back to town.as we were travelling back to the bus terminal,it started raining!DAMN HEAVILY!!!its NV wat u will get in singapore.the rain was so super heavy that you cannot see cars say 5m away from ya~!im SERIOUS!and the driver was driving damn fast also.super dangerous!well,we were lucky that we managed to get to the bus terminal safe and sound!!!then we took a bus back to city square and went to this cafe to have some portuguese egg tarts and chicken.it's quite tasty and cheap!the egg tarts are heavenlicious!!!hahaha...1.70RM only!!!mus try...then we proceed back to singapore...now that im back home trying my very best to stay awake and blog everything down.anywayz,one point to note is that i feel super sluggish and shagged and my trail walking sense is damn jialat.walk damn slow and not as confident...it must be the lack of sleep!so the next time u're going trekking or anything,pls be sure that u have enough sleep~!!!!hahahaha....

4wd track for descending...the waterfall-less way

im so dead....just as im looking for part time jobs,i should be happy that im actually offered a job without doing much.it seems that im suppose to be damn happy but think again...it marks the end of my freedom man!suppose to relac and waste time before uni starts but then again,im kinda given a 8-5pm job now!!!im suppose to report on mon!that actually means that i cant do other jobs which i would love too.im kinda force into doing it lahz.who wants to work when they have so much other stuff they can do like going back to CJ to play volleyball and do his personal training?wat abt his promises to go down and support the team when they will be playing against other school.seriously speaking,i realli wanna be with the team when they're competing.well,as for now,i think i should still be able to go back to CJ for a short game after work cos im going to HCI for some construction work!!!sounds interesting lah...but i kinda dread this job in a sense cos im completely knock out of freedom.mayb this mon i'll try and negotiate a deal regarding my "off" days!perhaps a half day for every wed and fri so that i can still train on these 2 days.and most imptly no work on SAT!!!hahahaha...i noe its too much to ask for but then again,i seriously would prefer to do something else rather than this.no doubt that it should pay pretty well and i'll gain significant engineering experience as wat was being stated.hopefully my uncle will allow mi to adopt a flexible timetable bah!worse come to worse,i'll just stop going to work and find something else to do!pls pray for me and hope i get wat i want!!!hahaha...

hoho...today marks the start of my SUPER ORD mood...last day of official duty in camp today!hahaha...from now till 1st june,i reckon that i onli go back for at most 5 freakin days!other than that,im super free...anywayz,went back to CJ today to help out with Volleyball.The girls were up against MJC and the guys were facing the coach's team "square kakis".luckily there were only 4 of his team members that came which means i get a chance to play too!!!hahaha...they were very friendly and were very willing to teach mi certain stuff.i learn something today lah.anywayz,im pretty happy for the girls team cos they managed to beat MJ except for the first match.another point to take note,MJ volleyball team sure have quite a no. of cuties man!hahaha...not that i go scan them lah...but thru out the game i did help to pick up a few balls for them!hahah...im so in love with volleyball man...i mean it!i really enjoy playing the game though im not very pro in it!now i hope that i'll get the chance to play with those peeps i met today again.there's so much more to learn and to improve.i hope i could help my juniors improve also lah!

on the other hand,stress level building up!juz got an email which makes mi mad.but i noe i cannot juz ignore it.its actually something to do with this program which im representing my CC's YEC to organised with other YEC.I just can't stand the way the ppl inside this committee works.they're super slow,inefficient,doesn't bother to communicate at all!!!!COMMUNICATION is IMPT!!!i just heard that the chairman was complaining of not having sufficient details from our plan to do a concept paper.BUT MAN!!!he didn't even sound off to us?to think he create an impression that his shifting the blame to us.and i believe its also part of our responsibility to follow up.but then again,his the CHAIRMAN!!!can he freaking use his initiative to ask for more info if he needs it?the fact that we only gave him that much is because we were not even brief on what a concept paper needs.im seriously getting very pissed every moment.but then again,im trying very hard to control myself.well,just send them an email to ask them to clarify things if they need more info!as well as to actually show ppl that we're working on it lahz.this chairman kinda cmi also.well,i guess its now on our part to push them to do things at a faster pace.stress lah...i juz cannot afford to let them point fingers at us and shifting the blame to our YEC.its NOT SUPPOSE TO HAPPEN!!!anywayz,im getting myself super stress and burnt by joining this and that...but i think its supppose to be like that!shouldn't waste too much time in ur life slacking and doing nothing.well...i think my brain is fried...dunno wat im typing liaoz...shall stop here now!

*i miss those days back in CJC!!!my classmates,ODAC mates,volleyball and every small little things...how i wish time could just stop 3yrs back...*

Happy Belated April Fool day man.anywayz,spent the entire april's fool day together with 4 others from ODAC climbing mountain and waterfall in a single day!thx for the company...(eleanor,reina,zebin and lek)im very sure we did enjoy ourselves.anywayz,the expedition started off with us meeting 7am @ Kranji MRT station.and as usual,im always the first to arrive!well,only eleanor and zebin were late lah.as long as 20 mins!!!hahaha...then we took a bus 170 to the customs and went over to city square over at JB to catch a public bus to get to Kota Tinggi.It was pretty interesting as we seldom take those public transport(bus) to get to places.Instead we usually pay for coach buses to get to our destination.well,wasn't very much diff in either case except the fact that the public transport keeps stopping every now and then to pick ppl up.once we reach Kota Tinggi town,we went to some local coffeeshop to have breakfast.As usual,we always order food that will never go wrong man.ROTI PRATA and TEH TARIK!!!ahahaha...after eating the prata,i concluded that the prata can nv beat the one that me kenneth and lek ate at Tampin town!after breakfast,we took a cab to get to the dirt track which lead us to the trail head of Gunung Panti.after some walking,we finally reach the trail head.the place was filled with damn lotsa mosquitos man.even the mosquito patch that eleanor provided us with couldn't get those mosquito buzzing off our backs.i swear its damn alot cos i was right behind reina at start and start damn alot of mosquitos buzzing behind her.its to the extend that i can juz any how clap my hands in front of mi,behind reina,i could simply kill at least 1 everytime(even if i clap slowly).well,it was my first time to Panti for the fact that i din join the march expedition when i was in j2.so onli zebin and lek knew where to go.at first we kinda need abit more time to process the route cos the place is abit messy!well,in case u dun know,G. Panti was the mountain where one of our few singaporean adventure leaders that actually got lost within the forest.anywayz,back to the trek.it was a pretty easy trek to follow.however,i did had some problem for the fact that i was tryign out my Kg. Adidas aka malaysian trekking shoes.as it was the first time i was wearing it,it actually caused abrasion for my feet.it even managed to scrap off some skin tissue from my heels man.but i juz carried on walking knowing that we have other objectives in mind which is another waterfall trek 3km away.at some point in time,it reali hurts but all i know was that walking will ease the pain!!!hahaha...juz get to the top and tape more tapes to prevent the cut lolz.nearer to the summit,the key indicator was the rock climbing part.we gotta navigate our way up this 5m cliff.it is super fun.rock climbing is realli so much more fun than plain walking on forest trails.though its much more dangerous and tiring,its definitely worth it.then when we reach the summit,rest for awhile and took a couple of shots until we hear voices coming from the other side.it was actualli another group of ppl climbing up.exchange a few words with them and we start descending.the descend was pretty fast.nothing realli happened during the descend except reina running into a fallen trunk.there's this protruding piece of wood that actually jab into her knee cap area.but it wasn't realli anything very serious.luckily she could still manage to walk on her own.

snake that we saw flat on the road while walking to pelepah kiri waterfall

after descending G.panti,we went another 3 km to the plantation which will lead us into the trail head of Pelepah Kiri waterfall.when we arrived at the plantation gate,i could vividly recall wat happened 5yrs ago while i was here with a group of frenz planning to camp at the summit of the falls.one of us slipped and fell and died.it was really a terrible experience.that was my very first adventurous journey but im glad it didn't mark my last.i still managed to join ODAC in CJ and get to go for the many many expeditions!im really glad my parents did not forbide mi to join ODAC and go for expedition ever since the accident.in fact im thankful that they did allow mi to go(even though i persuaded them to give mi the permission) so that i've made so many good frenz and enjoyed the journey that i've been to.anywayz,we started the climb pretty late lahz.ard 3 plus?then as we walked,i could slowly recall bits and pieces of sceneries that i've taken fotos at!!!but then again,the place was so so different from how it looked like 5 yrs ago.in terms of physical deforestation or erosion,the volume of water wasn't as much as what i've encountered before.but there were certain parts where i will nv forget.well as we climbed and climbed,the route was getting abit more technical and tougher to navigate.we reached a point whereby we couldn't see any more markings to indicate the route.and by then,it was already 5pm.it was getting dark as the cloud was getting darker as if its gonna rain anytime.and at the moment,im kinda stress cos i wouldn't wanna stay overnite at this place or even have nightwalk when only one of us have a torchlight.we couldn't afford to stay there also because we dun have food for us to bring us thru the nite.wat's worse is that we only had some biscuits for lunch!!!so i was like telling them we better turn back and start descending as its getting dark and drizzling plus we're here for the first time.im just afraid that we might miss a turn or something and get lost in the forest.wat im even more scare of was the rain and slippery surface plus the power of flash floods.Nv underestimate the force of nature man.and i always remember this phrase i think i heard from my odac teacher,mr lim.a good adventurer will always know when to turn back.something like that lahz.so we turned back esp when we couldn't realli see markers along the route to bring us to the summit.well,we managed to get out of the forest before sunset.played ard with the water at the lower course splashing one another.i swear i had lotsa fun in just that one day.glad that reina came along too for the fact that she's pretty interested to join us for expeditions on our own but missed out the berkelah and jerangkang trip.and with her around,there's always someone ard to suan!!!thus making the journey less tiring and more fun.im glad she enjoyed herself and im sure there will be many more expeditions she can always join us.dun need to feel upset even if she can't join us for the coming titiwangsa expedition when she can be having fun trekking ard in US too.hahaha...well,after we reached the trailhead,they kinda bugged mi to tell them more abt the incident that happened 5yrs ago.im glad i din tell them at the start of the journey cos they might not be able to concentrate on the journey and take the stress bah.cos after i told them,they were like abit shaken for the girls lahz.and they did say they won't wanna go back to pelepah kiri anymore.hahaha...well,i guess im going back this sat to complete wat's been left out.this time round i wanna get to the top!!!well,one thing i forgot was to thank both the mountain and waterfall for giving mi such a good trip and being merciful on us.anywayz,let's juz let the fotos do the talking bah!

well,we managed to get back to singapore at ard 10 plus and reached home ard 11 plus bah.objectives were met and we enjoyed ourselves very much!and to think we had the chance to trek in the rain which is wat we haven been doing for such a long time.hahaha...well,going on to sunday...

had my salsa lessons today!its pretty fun cause we are going into more complicated routines.when i reached there,none of those that i know was there lah.instead of seeing our usual instructor allan,this time round we had jessie instead.she's quite a nice teacher i muz say.made lessons more interesting and relax in a sense.well,she taught us quite some stuff.it more of varying wat we have learnt.this time round i told myself to be more confident and muz go do the leading properly.muz really let the lady feel the lead if not she wouldn't know wat's gonna come next.meanwhile,i'll try my best to memorise the steps.anywayz,kenneth and alvan didn't come for lessons!kenneth overslept and alvan was out of town!the girls came late!but they didn't miss out much too.anywayz,next week muz get there earlier to help kenneth with his dance steps liaoz.hahaha.before i forget,juz before i rushed down for salsa class,i was over at padang to check out the singapore adventure race.from the turnout,im pretty skeptical abt how interesting it can get.there was some stalls selling adventure related stuff and i bought this waterproof case at one of these stalls.hope it wont spoil so easily.besides that,saw the ntu odac booth trying to promote their adventure trail challenge.immediately i picked up the registrationg form and thought of competing in it.its been a long time since i've did my last adventure race.i swear its not abt winning.i juz like the challenges put forward to us in the race and how we actually encourage one another to push on and hold on to the end that's making mi so interested in this.it also gives mi a chance to practice the various skills that we've learnt.the adrenaline rush is something that make mi feel very shiok.and i wanna complete the race no matter wat.swear its not for winning but more of like the sense of achievement,being able to complete the race as a team despite our differences!now its up to lek mauricette and kenneth to help mi fulfil my dream man.if they're willing to come together,it'll be like the urban challenge team that we raced in before.the same group of peeps!im so looking forward to this man.

after salsa lessons,went down to cheer my batch mates on for their swansong performance.im realli glad they're finally doing their last performance and we did the typical ord personnels ORD cheer before they marched off for istana.well,it was a good show for the fact that no one dropped weapon.but then again,i would say the standard is not good...seriously dropped alot since our juniors took over.hopefully someone can do something abt it.alright that's all for now...shall update once again lahz.
