Mum Is Flying Again

My mum is away on another of her holidays again. I think she deserves the break she has now but methinks her holidays are too many and too close. Haha. Come back soon MUM!

Hand Shake? No Thanks.

I was getting off the bus just moments ago when I saw the incumbent MP of West Coast GRC on his walkabout. He was greeting us as we got off the bus and wanted to shake our hands. Erms......I am not too interested in shaking his hand at the moment. The sitting government has really forced the middle and low income group to rethink hard.

Back To Work

Back to work tomorrow. Arggg...... Don't really feel like going back.

New Goggles

Got myself a new pair of goggles. I usually swim without them, what with my lifeguard training and the discomfort. However, I intend to swim more often so I got to get a pair to protect my eyes from the cholrine irritation. Hmmm.......Speedos. Haha. I sure ain't no speed king.

Right Moves, Wrong Team

I have only recently completed my In-Camp Training. I cannot really comment on how the others feel about our Annual ICT but for me, I always put in my best effort. Last year, I was rewarded with an Oustanding Performance award when I was with my own Company. This time round, I requested to bring my ICT forward as I was having some personal isues and wanted to take a break from work. Again, I put in my effort, and in general had fun with my fellow company mates. My hardwork this time round did not go unnoticed and I was actually put up for the Best NSMAN award for this ICT. I understood that my superiors were all pushing for me but, alas, as I am not from this company but temporarily attached, I was not given the award. Sigh...... I was really looking forward to getting the award. Not so much for the prestige, glory or the incentive but more for the sake of my application for something else. It would have looked really good on my application that I got the award 2 years in a row running. Well, if I was in my own company, I might have gotten it? Maybe. Ah well. I had a great time with this company. It was a really really great experience.

Stuck In Soon

Will be stuck in camp the next 2 nights as I have an exercise coming up. Ooooh man......it is going to be 2 sleepness nights. I hope I can stay awake......uncle old already......haha.

Still Undecided

$700 difference in airtix if I want to see the sunrise at 30,000 feet, reach the destination sooner and to fly business class on the way back. Hmm......the trip companion is still undecided.

We were out earlier tonight and she saw a roadshow by ACRES regarding the stopping of dolphins being placed in captivity. She has never saw dolphins in the wild but she understood what ACRES are trying to do. The public has to be educated on the situation of what happens to these dolphins in captivity. I told her my environmentalistic tendencises have always been there but they were honed during my 2 trips to New Zealand. Seeing the animals in the wild, you really do not want to see them in captivity. I even regaled her with stories of how the wild dolphins live and how closed knit they are. I ended by letting her know that all these will be clearer to her when she sees them in person.

I Don't Really Belong There

After being away from work since last week Wednesday, I have felt better. When I met up with my colleagues for a bit of Karaoke on Thursday evening, I realised one thing. I don't really belong there. I am happier being away from my workplace, not because I do not have to do my work but I guess it is because I was never really happy there. Was I ever?

Pondering

Everything happens for a reason in this world. Everything. Hmmm...... I am so tired mentally. So very tired.

Days Of Green

Restarted the engine again this week. I am now back as CPL(NS) Ho again. I really needed this break.

I got my wish on something this week but I am not happy about it. Hmmm....

Transformation.....Again Soon

Yups......I will soon transform again. Going green as they put it. I need this transformation. Both to lose weight and to sort out my thoughts. It has always been one person......I just need to be clear on how to handle it if I want to progress. I have had been a wreck the past month. Sigh.

Tired From Driving

Out on a guy's night out with a buddy of mine last night. His wife is recrupreating at TMC and he wanted some company last night. Having just got himself a new car, BMW 318i, he was driving the 320 last night because his car was in the workshop and they gave him a t-loan car. He has worked very hard to be at where he is and he did mentioned that his mum and wife were the reason he worked so hard. I wish I have my reason.

It was great driving around in the 320. I think I got spoiled. Haha. It felt really great. The handling, the pickup. Hwah! It was so silent even at high speed. His place at Sengkang is an EC but it had a million dollar view. I stayed in his guestroom and it had a great view of Punggol Park with no obstruction expected.

When I have found my significant other, I believe I will be like him and work myself hard. He did say one reason why I may seem worlds away from him is because I have my focus on seeing the world, while for him it is about providing for his family. However, our interests are so similar that we enjoy the same things. Hmm......when will my significant other appear?

April Fool's?

I wonder what is happening to me on this April Fool's day. I tried to be happy so that those who are sad can be cheered up. However, I was told that when two persons are of opposite characters or moods, it will result in a clash. Sigh.....
