A Moment Of Madness ???


The Set meal looked small in the menu leh, what happend ???

Vivo @ nite

err, excuse me uncle, u are in my shot but the baby can stay :P

Outside Vivo

inside vivo

from the park above vivo

a shot of sentosa from Vivo . .

It has been quite a while since i last post something here huh . . a good 2 weeks maybe or even longer ???


Lets see now where shud i start ? . . . Hmmm . .
Ok i caught up with some movies over the past few weeks, namely Death-Note and Sinking Of Japan. Also completed some books that i have been reading. (serious and non-serious stuff)
PS: I finished Deathnote in 2 days time, actually it was one and a half day, guess thats wat gemi said when u get a book u like, u start and u cant stop . . hee :)

Ok back to the movies, Deathnote was interesting but . . Hee :p
there is always a "but" to something aint it?

Ok, "L"s character design ain't what i had in mind . . "L" is shrewd, not sinister. But somehow or rather, that was what the movie protraited to me . . but nevertheless it was a intriuging show, alot of mind games were played especially on how "Kira / Light" planned to know of the FBI's name and how he got the rest of the name as well as some funny scene in the movie . .
Interesting, Very interesting. But i missed the trailer for the 2nd episode of Deathnote. Heard from frens later that its shown after all the credits were shown . . . Haizzz.

Also went to have dinner @ Shimbashi Soba that night. The food there always taste so nice . . . But a bit tired that day, so couldn't get too enthu especially when u know u are going to do duty on the 23th when everyone is on off, so a bit down . . . hope i didn't bore u that day :(

For the rest of that week (23th -27th ), was basically quite slow . . but because of wallaby i am clearing leave as of effect from that week on . . (suddenly i am like clearing leave before everyone else), blessing in disguise? Well we won't know will we, hee :) . .

But all i know is i had a good few day of rest before i set out to do something . . this is going to be a long continous road of change that i have decided to embark on, remember i mentioned earlier about a book(see my previous post) and i have decided to adopt certain stuff the author mentioned in the book. So much for thinking and planning without actions, its time some actions is to be done, wish me luck and pray for me.

Oh ya, back to my title of "a moment of madness", guess you all know that i am getting the phone i have talking about so much lately, yup finally its in my hands now and i cant take my hands off it. So whats the madness we are toking about ?? I guess we are toking about the price lor, its cost me quite an amount but i don't think i want to mention it here . . but all i can say is . . i have never decided to spend this much on a phone before but what came over me i don't know. But i believe in making choices and sticking by them without regrets.

Decisions can be good or bad, if its good, then fine, but if it isn't, take responsiblity then and find a way to remedy to error caused by wrong judgement. Either way do not lament on the decision u made, take it in ur stride and then move on, blame no one for it would only imply u are not in control of your own life . . Now we wouldn't want that to happen right, since its OUR life, shouldn't we be in control of OUR life ??

Last friday decided to go Vivo with a fren and test out my new camera phone and also watched "sinking of japan". . was rather reluctant to do so bec it all about people dying AGAIN. . but the graphics was totally out of this world. Credit has to be given to the art directors . . every scene with CG was done to the details, realistic i tell u. And if u think the movie "day after tomorrow" was breathtaking, you should look at this. Oh there aint much dying anyway :)

oh btw, i took some pics which is shown above, along with some more pics from my dinner at a jap restaurant with my sis and our "princess" @ Waraku, very good ambience . . . nice spot for dinner with family and frenz :)

well i guess that sums up about everything


till next time :)

Wat to say here ???

ok i did mention in my previous post that the next post i have would be after my overseas exercise . . but, i have simply nothing to do here on book-in night . .

Soo . . here i am, writing some crap as well as some updates on some stuff . .

Ok now . . for the past week all i have to say is . . "stuck in army and counting down to ORD".
that all i have to update liao :)

hmm . . except for my friday's out-of-camp run @ kent ridge park. When i first saw the admin instruction was a bit disappointed coz its only a 4km run, i was like going what happened to all the 10km run coz i wanted to take part in the Standart Chartered Run. But all this disappointment was masked with horror when i reach there . . i never ran at kent ridge before so i dont that IT WAS A HILL . . As i ran, more horror was unveiled, i have to run down a flight of stairs and then up another which was a killer . . Just when i tot its all over, i had to run down a slope and up another ??!!! . . AND I HAD TO DO 2 ROUNDS ??!!! When i finished the run, i was almost half dead . . even worse than having to run 10km. But there was a section of the run where we had to run on a canopy walk, how i wished i could just stop and take a look at the sight, maybe i do it another time when i am more free . . hee :)

after the run, me and the guys went for dinner at holland V, wow . . how long has it been since i last went there . . 1 year maybe ??? We went there and had dinner at NYDC, i have parmasean spaegatti (cheese galor) with the ice mocha elephanncino (ok, so much for the calories that was burnt during the run) . . kinda sinful but who cares, when cheese and choco come into play, i am just blown away . . . . . Wahahaha.

back to some books that i think i shud share wif u out there . . its called "Your Own Worst Enemy" by Kenneth W. Christian. If any of the following sound familiar to u:

procastination, wide swings of mood and self-esteem, ambivalance in decision making, fear of disappointment and dream big but never following through . .

you should read this book . . i am still in the midst of reading it, its nothing like the convention books which says what u shud do and what you shouldn't do . . instead it lists out and catergorises behaviours of SLHPP(self-limiting high potential people) . . its kinda like make u recognise who u are and the triats and habits of SLHPP. Its scary that some of the stuff they mentioned inside is kinda accurate. You guys and gals shud read it . . i dont know whether do they offer solutions in the book coz i am still in the midst of it . . . maybe i will give a full review when i am done with it . . but i still recommend u people out there to get hold of this book and read it . . dont come borrowing it from me, i borrowed from the libaray.

oh ya toking about books, i once heard this funny joke from Alex, he said there are 3 books to read to become the most "evil" person around, they are . .

"48 laws of power" (which i am reading also .. hee)
"reading body language" . . and . .
"in a blink of an eye" . .

maybe i shud read it and then i can take over the world . . muahahahhahhahahaha . . i am just kiddin la . . hee (^-^)

anime updates - -

bleach's filler episodes is getting boring . .
do i need to even mention the horrendous amount of filler episodes that naruto is airing ??

a new anime, DeathNote Is Excellent, thou i did resist the mange but after watching 2 episode of its anime, i am reconsidering my stand . . maybe i should buy the entire manga series since its all avaliable and it is completed . . hmmmmmm . . i dont mind it as a christmas present thou, any takers out there ???? Wahaha.

Omg, its gonna be xmas soon . . hmm, since i am down-under come next month, maybe i can get some presents there . . hee . .

3 more weeks or so till i fly off to down-under, and after that ORD . hee :)
alot of movies to watch also . . deceipt, WTC and deathnote !!!!!

Wahahaha . . finally something to look forward to . . Lalalalala . .
oh ya, meemee asked me for a IA outing . . hmm maybe its time to organise one le . .
but see how first la . . hee

till next time . .

Australia Here I Come . . .

Yup, its more or less confirm, i am flying down under for overseas exercise this coming November which will last till December . . . this is because some NSmen pulled out and freed up quite a couple of seats and my superior said hey, why not you come along too . . and hence the rest is history . . .

Actually this arrangement did twart my plans for the future a bit but i think i can just delay my plans it abit . . hee (^-^)V

Originally i was thinking of sending out my resumes this Nov and hopefully get an interview in DEC or something like that . . . But bec of this trip i would have to shove all plans one month back.

Actually going australia wasn't that bad, actually it fufiled a wish i had when i was back there in 2001.Yup, its my 2nd time going Wallaby(its the exercise's code name).

Back then, me and my frens were taking fotos there . . but they were all posing pics for ORD(they were trying to form the letters O, R and D) since they were all gonna ORD that very same year. And there was me, still have about 1 years of service left, so i could only take fotos for them . . . Coz i wasn't able to join in, the reason is kinda obvious huh. Was a bit jealous then, and wondered if i had to chance to once again go there and repeat this "feat" . . Well i guess fate works in a strange way, guess what, i would be fufilling this wish of mine afterall.

So i guess shoving my plans 1 month back for the fufilment of a wish is not a bad choice ba , but this just means that i have to work extra hard for the lost time . . but how come my wish of strucking toto never came truth leh ??? Hahaha, i am just kidding here since i don't buy so how to get rich . . LoLz ;P

Recently i am starting to read more books than i have ever did through'out my sch days . . guess i have to give credit to the army as well as my camp frens for introducing some books to me . . kudos to all of them . . Thou is still feel i am wasting my time, hee :) but it will soon be over in another 2 months time . . Hehehehehe, finally the light at the end of the tunnel \(^-^)/

Some ask me how come i feel so positive all the time, alway with a smile?
*except when i wake up in the morning, i may be awake but i am still dead to the world,
hee (^-^)* Well i guess this may sound stupid to you but i believe in making choices, we choose what we want to be and how we feel, so just accept it and move on, each step we have taken is only preparing us for the next step ahead . . a bit theoratical huh, but why make the world and the days we lead so complex, sometimes simplicity can work wonders for you.

haha, thats enuff crap for the morning, been feeling unwell since i woke up today. Should have seen it coming, even thou i have enuff sleep each day, i only get more tired the next, maybe i shud take the next few day(actually 2 only, sat and sun ) slow and just unwind a bit, just stay at home and read some books on hand . . Must be the haze la, hee :)

Oh ya, my boi boi is also down with illness :'(


hmm . . better save up abit, think i will be getting Xmas presents when i am at down under, but don't expect anything special coz i am going rockhampton and not brisbane or melbourne hor,

ok, rest time :)

PS: Take care of urself folks, guess the haze won't be leaving that soon . .

and also . . HappY Mid-Autumn Festival, ( Heard the moon is brighter and bigger this year than all the others) . . Enjoy the moon-cakes and teas, watch the calories thou . . Hee ;P


Till i am back from Australia then, hmm . . or maybe earlier if i got something to put here . . :)
