Cancer's creativity carries into the next few days. The only thing better than perfection is more of the same. Broaden your range to include new sensations that you should have experienced long ago.

Greetings Mycroft --

An influential backer withdraws support. Don't let surprise rob you of an appropriate response. Wear your best face so that future partners and angels can see how well you perform under stress.

Greetings Mycroft --

Cancer is tired of glossing over things that must be said. Give yourself part of the day to right old wrongs and then move forward. It's amazing how you can brighten a whole room with just a little window cleaning.

Greetings Mycroft --

When looking reality in the face, you like what you see. Money is a friendly resource. A partnership is working again. Cancer taps into last week's good will when dealing with people that remember.

Greetings Mycroft --

You're strong and tough. You can withstand a lot of friendly punishment and still keep on tickin'. Skip lightly over the stepping-stones, respecting the power of the water that you've temporarily conquered.

Greetings Mycroft --

Wear your medals proudly or display them on your wall. The stars linger on your side for an extra few hours, granting the wishes closest to your heart. This is still a perfect time for an optimistic beginning.

It's all about you, but who else deserves such royal treatment? Passion and compassion come together in the ideal blend of fire and water.

Greetings Mycroft --

Cancer is the cosmic therapist, but these days he or she loves the job. Under your care, it's easy for others to feel good about themselves. Role models are flattered by their legions of imitators.

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Wednesday, November 12:

Investors and horse traders know what they're doing, although everyone else remains in the dark. Think positively as you keep your eyes open. The right words are hidden in a very different way of saying things.

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Tuesday, November 11:

Cancer is fundamentally uneasy in the information age. You prefer a world of physical landmarks and history that's written in books. Calm yourself by completing something with your own hands.

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Monday, November 10:

In your own mind, define your territory before trying to defend what isn't yours. Contribute what you can from the safety of your comfort zone. Understanding a struggle is different from actually engaging in it.

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Sunday, November 9:

An informal meeting happens in a cozy place. Be the first to speak your thoughts and be amazed at how many people share them. Someone should be taking notes in case this idle conversation takes off.

Greetings Mycroft --

When all is forgiven, old wounds can be discussed without danger. Friends and partners are welcome to bring their own extended families to the party. A new community is growing this weekend.

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Friday, November 7:

Your priorities are skewed. Why are you wasting time on little details or unimportant events? Bosses and other oppressors will leave you alone once they see you doing something necessary.

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Thursday, November 6:

Passive aggression approaches an art form. Even if you're playing for serious stakes, underhanded tactics aren't justified. Stubbornness for its own sake probably won't do much for Cancer's popularity.

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Wednesday, November 5:

You'll get all the sympathy you request, but it could diminish your standing in the community. Try not to overreact. Today's actions will be part of your life for the rest of this week.

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Tuesday, November 4:

Travelers from different worlds are fated to meet under the stars. Deep inside, you probably knew this would happen. The colors, sounds and feelings of your emotional landscape are all necessary ingredients for a perfect day.

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Monday, November 3:

Fulfill your potential in ways that feel natural. Drift between subjects or locations connected by threads that only you can see. Remember this wonderful logic on days when you doubt your own abilities.

TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"Success is more a function of consistent common sense than it is of genius."

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Sunday, November 2:

There's a big difference between acting intelligently and spending too much time in your head. Change is disruptive, but you could use a little shaking up. Guide yourself before someone else steers you wrong.

TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

Excellence is not an act, but a habit.

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Saturday, November 1:

You're ready to ignore a once-in-a-lifetime chance. Low energy or trouble at home tints Cancer's world with harsh colors. Don't be too quick to dismiss what you haven't actually tried.

TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"You don't just luck into things ... You build step by step, whether it's
friendships or opportunities."

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Friday, October 31:

Who's behind that mask, anyway? Cancer is caught in the middle of a strange game or maybe it's something that he or she started. Laughter at the wrong moment could be misinterpreted.

TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

The strong and virtuous admit no destiny.

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Thursday, October 30:

Fly by the seat of your pants. There's no precedent for what's happening now. You might even need to revise your definitions of success and failure. In the future, this will probably be one of the good old days.

TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough."

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Wednesday, October 29:

Use the escape clause or take some personal time. When you get back, you'll be ready for more of the same or possibly something even better. Instead of bemoaning your weakness, play up your strong side.

TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

Just as your car runs more smoothly and requires less energy to go faster and farther when the wheels are in perfect alignment, you perform better when your thoughts, feelings, emotions, goals, and values are in balance.

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Tuesday, October 28:

Fill the hole in your life that everyone else is ignoring. Little problems seem a lot bigger when you're the one losing sleep over them. If you can't afford to get too deep right now, at least make yourself comfortable.

TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"Friends are those rare people who ask how we are and then wait to hear the answer."

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Monday, October 27:

Showy precautions are almost as good as actual prevention. Gather your resources and make a list of who gets what. For those that had any doubt, it should be clear where Cancer's loyalties lie.

TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"Challenges come so we can grow and be prepared for things we are not equipped to handle now. When we face our challenges with faith, prepared to learn, willing to make changes, and if necessary, to let go, we are demanding our power be turned on."

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Sunday, October 26:

Involve your favorite people in the activities that you love. A long-awaited event is almost too good to believe when it finally happens. This is the life that you've always meant to live.

TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"He who has faith has ... an inward reservoir of courage, hope, confidence, calmness, and assuring trust that all will come out well - even though to the world it may appear to come out most badly."

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Saturday, October 25:

Companionship or membership drives back an empty void. Your emotions are close to the surface, waiting to be used for something good. Someone close amplifies your sense of home into true pride of place.

TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"Do what you feel in your heart to be right - for you'll be criticized anyway."

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Friday, October 24:

Anyone that thinks Cancer is beaten has another thing coming. Your presence is strong and permanent. Repeat your success until the little things pile up into an unavoidable mountain.

TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"I was cut from my high school team. I have missed more than 9000 shots in my career, I have lost almost 300 games. On 26 occasions I have been entrusted to take the game winning shot...and I missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life and that is why I succeed."

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Thursday, October 23:

Air elevates the discussion between water and earth. Cancer is bargaining from a position of knowledge and strength. Obviously you're interested in profit, but there's an element of friendship at work, too.

TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"Today I begin to understand what love must be, if it exists... When we are parted, we each feel the lack of the other half of ourselves. We are incomplete like a book in two volumes of which the first has been lost. That is what I imagine love to be: incompleteness in absence."

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Wednesday, October 22:

You don't have to own something in order to appreciate it. Steady efficiency keeps you from veering off into distraction. Assembly line workers take comfort in the familiar rhythms of their hands.

TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"I believe life is constantly testing us for our level of commitment, and life's greatest rewards are reserved for those who demonstrate a never-ending commitment to act until they achieve. This level of resolve can move mountains, but it must be constant and consistent. As simplistic as this may sound, it is still the common denominator separating those who live their dreams from those who live in regret."

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Monday, October 20:

You gain the upper hand in a bidding war. Before your promises get too extravagant, make some delivery plans. There could be many unseen pitfalls between now and your deadline.

TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"Nothing splendid has ever been achieved except by those who dared believe that something inside them was superior to circumstance."

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Sunday, October 19:

Cancer's best side is still on display. Your sense of surplus continues, but you should understand that it's only temporary. Get ready for another week of meaningful exchanges.

TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"The fact that I can plant a seed and it becomes a flower, share a bit of knowledge and it becomes another's, smile at someone and receive a smile in return, are to me continual spiritual exercises."

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Saturday, October 18:

Close the deal on unfinished business. Others could use a reminder that the cards are stacked in your favor. A little bit of gloating is acceptable.

TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a great battle."

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Friday, October 17:

You've been giving and you've been quietly receptive, but now a new side of Cancer emerges. The universe cheerfully delivers on demand. Live your life without compromise.

TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"Faith is putting all your eggs in God's basket, then counting your blessings before they hatch."

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Wednesday, October 15:

Whether you're the go-between or the monkey in the middle, you'll do a lot of running around under the stars. It's too much to expect loyalty in a gray area. Forgotten social skills come back into play easily.

TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"Treat people as if they were what they ought to be, and you help them to become what they are capable of being."

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Tuesday, October 14:

Gambling holds a delicious appeal. It's easier to wait for fate to show its hand than it is to make your own luck. If you can't make yourself proud, at least don't do anything that will shame you.

TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"Don't walk behind me, I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend."

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Monday, October 13:

Help warring parties set aside their differences. Few can stay angry after being exposed to your visions. Cancer's personal life blossoms through the goodness that he or she brings to the world.

TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world."

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Sunday, October 12:

Faint hope turns into an ironclad promise. Now that your worries are fewer, there's more time to enjoy yourself. You have the full attention of people that matter. Dare to be original.

TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"Nobody can solve problems for someone whose only problem is that he doesn't want his problems to be solved."

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Saturday, October 11:

Hang in there. Your troubles are fixing themselves. When you lower your guard, you'll find that the world is friendlier than you realized. Dark, heavy clouds turn to puffy little confections. The sky's the limit.

TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"There are things that we never want to let go of, people we never want to leave behind, but keep in mind that letting go isn't the end of the world, it's the beginning of a new life."

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Friday, October 10:

Keep moving even as you feel yourself slowing down. Too many people use the approaching weekend as an excuse to slack off. Sometimes you do your best work when you push just a little bit harder.

TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

Life moves on, whether we act as cowards or heroes. Life has no other discipline to impose, if we would be realize it, than to accept life unquestioningly. Everything we shut our eyes to, everything we run away from, everything we deny, denigrate or despise, serves to defeat us in the end. What seems nasty, painful, evil, can become a source of beauty, joy, and strength, if faced with an open mind. Every moment is a golden one for him who has the vision to recognize it as such.

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Thursday, October 9:

Go back to the original instead of duplicating a copy. You need to see the whole thing before you react foolishly to one small part of it. Cancer's personal and professional lives are too close for comfort.

TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"Turn obstacles into opportunities."

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Wednesday, October 8:

Let yourself accomplish magnificent things. Friends inspire one another to brighter and more fragrant blossoms. Draw from both your light and dark sides for a completely human experience.

TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"Your talent is God's gift to you. What you do with it is your gift back to God."

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Tuesday, October 7:

The next few days provide a perfect window for growth. You'll miss a lot if you opt to sit around doing the same old thing. Take a less direct route and be amazed by what you meet along the way.


TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"Sometimes we stare so long at a door that is closing, that we see too late the one that is open."

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Monday, October 6:

Someone hands you the perfect tool. It's so tempting to think about crossing that line. Consider strength, weakness, merit and discredit. Write about it later instead of doing it now.

TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"Don't let success go into your head nor failures go into your heart."

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Sunday, October 5:

Passionate people rub each other the wrong way. Fortunately, you'll work harder than ever to stick to the point. Consider saving your breath and spending your quality time alone.


TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"Generosity is giving more than you can, and pride is taking less than you need.

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Saturday, October 4:

Lovers think better of each other when they learn more about their separate pasts. Physical contact defines your reality. This weekend may be your best chance in a while to make good on a promise.


TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"When will transformation begin? It starts at the moment you decide to change. That's why it's so vital for you to stop for a moment and come face to face with one aspect of your life that needs drastic action immediately."

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Friday, October 3:

Thanks to unexpected forces, a sure thing is suddenly an iffy proposition. A strong bond is remarkably fragile under certain pressures. Help an associate stand tall instead of trying to see how far he or she will bend.


TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"We are not human beings having a spiritual experience, we are spiritual beings having a human experience."

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Thursday, October 2:

You can smell a surprise, but why expect the worst? The harvest coming in is well deserved. Personal remarks are probably meant to soothe and flatter. Thank others for thinking of you.


TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"I wish I could stand on a busy corner, hat in hand, and beg people to throw me all their wasted hours."

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Wednesday, October 1:

You're the focus of more attention that you're comfortable getting. You obviously have something that many people find valuable. Show your hand. It's time to renegotiate.


TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"Adventure isn't hanging on a rope off the side of a mountain. Adventure is an attitude that we must apply to the day to day obstacles of life -- facing new challenges, seizing new opportunities, testing our resources against the unknown and in the process, discovering our own unique potential."

Greetings Mycroft --

Here is your horoscope for Tuesday, September 30:

Leaving the room might be the only way to end the conversation. You'd rather not be rude, but some people just won't take a hint. Wait a few more days for bearable company.


TODAY'S INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE:

"What is meant to last will last, so look towards the future but NEVER forget the past."

now listening to : Cradle by Atomic Kitten

yoZ.. i don't remember having a Sunday that's as memorable & happening as today.. turned down qubee's invitation for field soccer at chinese high in the morning coz it rained quite heavily the night before.. didn't wish to get myself muddy early morning.. coincidentally tioman organised basketball at our alma mater at 11 in the morning.. tian cai & his clan would be going too so i happily set off to meet them.. i was the first to reach school shortly followed by tian cai & his bro then eddie.. tioman made everyone wait for him till 12.30! by that time we had already thought of how to "tekan" him.. Yes! Lunch on him! organiser yet the last to turn up.. we wrapped up the last game around 2 o'clock.. only 3 of us proceeded to bukit timah market for lunch.. tioman, tian cai & me coz the rest didn't want to come.. 3 of us were so famished.. i really missed the good food there.. and that was a free lunch.. more to come later! we left tioman who was waiting for his mum to fetch him home & we went to cashew heights..

*sidetrack abit* saw Weijia alight from 157 at shells after lunch.. was so surprised to see her but we couldn't talk for long coz the 171 i wanted to take was right behind..

met Yanjun & Jason for basketball again.. tian cai's brother also made his own way there after he went home for lunch.. hee~ got to know a new basketball friend Keith (who also lives at cashew heights) & his gf Gywen.. they are really nice pple.. Jason's brother, Jonathan, celebrated his 18th birthday today in advance (actual birthday's on 22nd).. he had invited his friends & us to a bbq party at the poolside.. yup free bbq dinner after basketball!! =)

there were 2 distinct groups.. one small group of young adults (Jason, Yanjun, Keith, Gywen, Lingjun & his brother & me) and the other (Jonathan's big group of teenage friends).. our group played cards for a while and then chatted for very long.. different frequency from Jon's friends who were bustling with adrenaline i guess.. i feel i'm already getting old.. heh.. but all in all it was a memorable gathering which ended sooner than expected coz the next day would be a working day..

weijia -- long time no see! hope u are doing fine gal, sorry couldn't chat longer with u maybe we can meet up next time? take care~

now listening to : Shakespeare In Love by Layla Kaylif

yoZ.. what a fine afternoon i had today.. went down with yanjun to SMU.. there were alot of new faces.. all the courts were occupied when we reached there & we had to wait quite a while before any of us got a game.. I played with this uncle called KY.. i got thrashed by him the last time we played.. he's a very good player even Fam lost to him.. but i managed to win him today! i was in very good form.. one amazing thing i discovered today: i could whack the squash ball consistently fast & hard even though it was the 5th set.. my arm strength & endurance had improved tremendously..
well i won't say yanjun's got an enjoyable game.. but she definitely looked as if she was running a marathon.. she complained she was so exhausted on our way home.. lucky i bought her favourite fruitree apple & aloe vera juice.. replenished some energy & refreshed her..

yanjun -- better rest early gal~ treat yourself to some precious sleep =)

now listening to : Still by Brian McKnight

yoZ.. it has been nearly a month since i last blogged.. somehow i always don't have time.. my friends say i'm probably too lazy to blog even when i have time.. that's quite true.. usually when i get back from camp or squash trg my eyes will find it too painful to face the computer screen for so long.. and when i have spare time i'll rather play sports, listen to music, read books or just stone around.. but hey i'm not such a playful guy K.. i do housework and cook at home often.. anyway i've always liked exercising my brains in the squash courts or basketball courts.. displaying my brilliant bodily-kinesthetic intelligence! That's me.. =) enough of self-indulgence for today..
My life's been so eventful lately.. many things just happen too quickly.. like the scenes in "2 Fast 2 Furious" which i caught last week.. i'm hoping i'll get used to it soon.. i need time to stone, to reflect upon all the happenings.. I need time to be alone..
Yup.. i'll be going down to SMU to play squash again later.. Must enjoy myself today!

suyi -- thanks for the birthday present..
tian cai -- tmr play basketball again at cashew heights k? Jason's brother got bbq birthday party there tmr.. can go join them for dinner after bball!

now listening to : At The Beginning by Richard Marx & Donna Lewis

yoZ.. went out to play Magic in the morning with a friend yesterday.. Spent the whole afternoon downloading an antivirus software to clean my corrupted hard disk! it's so irritating & luckily i got it fixed.. Had a short nap then went out to Kallang for my match.. My opponent was an ex-national junior called Teng Kuan.. happened to be Joel's good friend.. He just came back from the States like Allan & he just completed his 2nd year in Princeton.. The world is so small man.. he knows Allan & Serene (both were from hc).. i lost my match but i took 1 set from him & i'm quite happy =) He's really good.. I foresee I should be able to reach his standard some day in the near future.. Hehe~ Darrell won & he'll be playing Dermadi the next game.. haha.. So sad! He'll kena thrashed for sure.. But wish him good luck anyway.. Went for a late dinner with Darrell at Orchard after staying so late at Kallang.. Didn't manage to pass the reference books to Suyi coz it was too late.. Hope i'll get something from the Losers' Plate event today! gtg meet Lj for basketball soon... tataZ

yoZ.. hello everyone.. oh do u all miss me? =) Glad to be blogging again.. I last touched Blogger a couple of weeks ago.. Had a really fun day today! Darrell & me had wanted to train for squash & play badminton at Yio Chu Kang in the afternoon.. when Jennifer suggested playing pool instead, we turned her down.. Then i changed my mind coz i think she could be too tired after kayaking yesterday & that we guys needed a good rest for tmr's match at Kallang.. saw Allan online in the morning & asked him out to join us for pool at Monster Cue (e one at Meridien) at 2pm.. I didn't know he was already back from the States.. Nice meeting up with him =) He's another old friend who plays basketball! "Boi, your hair abit long eh.." Had dinner with him at PS.. This poor guy had been deprived of good food for so long.. He had been craving for laksa since a few months ago.. We parted after dinner.. He headed to Bedok for some wushu thingie & I went home.. Sort of a relaxing day for me.. now i'm searching for the song "Unbreak my Heart" online coz i heard it while playing pool.. tataZ

yoZ... this must be my slackest day of the week... slept till 10.30am in the morning... woke up just in time to catch Jackie Chan Adventures, Justice League & Pokemon with my sister... after which i lazed around & listened to FM93.3 for the week's top 20 songs... now listening to FM92.4... having a squash match later in the evening... hope I can win today... like i won yesterday... The winner gets about 150 bucks! I'll hope it comes home after so much dedication to squash...

yoZ... went Yio Chu Kang to play squash again in the afternoon... Chuanlu came today... the 2 girls were abit late... Darrell was the earliest... Lucky he came & booked the court earlier... those Monfort pple nearly took every court available for trg... so nice of the girls to come down again to have a workout... realised I admire girls who exercise & keep their adrenaline going... hehe... Anyway went back to hwa chong & got the Soiree tix from Suyi... then waited for Yanjun to pick the poncho i was lending her for the trip to Kinabalu... was surprised to see Wanjun at the LRT station... she seemed troubled by school work... think she's a gal who likes to have so much fun that maybe she won't enjoy studying... well if u can just keep ur concentration going gal... you can definitely do well for ur A's... it's all about working HARD if u have been too soft... haha.. oh and late at night i had to meet Rongyao at Lot1 to pass him something my CSM needed... he was complaining that OC won't let him attach out for safsa dragon boat trg... hope eventually he will get his attachment like me & break free from the monotonous army life... oh and i remembered to get the 2 gals' hp no. today.. hehe

yoZ...went to Yio Chu Kang to play squash in the afternoon... Darrell suggested playing there coz it's nearer his house (in Thomson)... I had to travel so far! Then he invited 2 of his AJ juniors along... Jennifer & Meiying... Meiying seems more familiar & it's the first time I've seen Jennifer... They are waiting to go into Uni that's why they are so free on a Tuesday afternoon... Jennifer looks cute & she's so extremely polite... then Meiying got tt bo-chup attitude... haha...not bad knowing two more friends... the gals are playing for Allan at SCC... so would probably see them more often if i'm still active in the squash arena next year... Went to Junction 8 after squash with the gals... Had a drink at Orange Julius and ended up loitering for a while... nothing better to do so went home... took the same bus as Meiying... and how could i have forgotten to ask for their numbers? well i dunno why i'm so blurZ... hehe.. nevermind maybe ask them another time... was so tired when i reached home...

yoZ...yesterday was a tiring but fun day! overslept in the morning coz it just had to rain in the wee hours... while those squash juniors must still travel in the rain to Kallang while i was still enjoying my sleep... reached Kallang at about 10.30am... saw the last game being played... hwa chong had already lost even before i reached the place... but at least they still showed commendable fighting spirit... heard that Yixin lost... hope she didn't feel too upset... i'm sure she tried hard! she lost her tie last year too but that time she was playing with a back injury... why must she always be on the losing side... so unfair! actually it's not fair for her to shoulder all the blame for losing... coz the loser could have easily been anyone else in the team... anyway hope next year they'll get it back! i would have felt quite out of place there if not for coach's presence... had wanted to watch the A grade finals at 2pm when coach would be playing but i came earlier instead to witness the hwa chong team win... The 'Mens' A grade finals was of a different class... it was exhilarating, pulsating & really entertaining... the best match was between Mubashir & Udai Singh... they demonstrated that squash is a NEVER SAY DIE game... Safsa came home with no prizes or trophies this season... felt we didn't deserve to end empty-handed... we got penalised for fielding Darrell, who had improved so much this season, in the last game against New Pioneers... it was a harsh decision against the team coz that cost us the 3rd place and there goes the medals... Next year if i'm the captain i'll make sure we do our best & win the honours that we ought to deserve... Everything ended at about 6.30pm... Was on my way home then unexpectedly LJ called... my buddy will always be my buddy... hee~ i didn't feel like going home straight and he suggested playing billard at MechMaster... i immediately hopped onto a 171 at Orchard and called OEC to meet us there too... We had an enjoyable time there... after which we went off for supper as I was quite famished... LJ would be doing guard duty tmr so we left quite early... realized i haven't been blogging for so many days... i only blogged 3 times last month... haha... yet there are still so many faithful friends who visit my blog daily... i really appreciate u guys... well perhaps waiting for this day? This could be the day i start opening my thoughts again... =)

yoZ...finally i'm back to blogging! Today's a fine day... had a good sleep last night... met Yj & Lj for basketball... it was quite exciting to play against those kids... fun bullying those kids... rejected them so many times... haha! taught them a good shooting lesson on basketball... went to BPP for dinner with Lj.. the Yong Tau Foo was really nice... any 6 pieces + noodles costs only $3.20 and each additional piece costs $0.40... Lj paid 6 bucks for his extremely large bowl... while i paid only 4 bucks coz i chose only 8 pieces... can't imagine he chose so many pieces - 13... and they usually cut them into smaller pieces... like 1 fishball they cut into 2 halves... one tau pok they also cut into 2 halves... haha so Lj got 26 pieces of ingredients... neva knew he's so greedy... he was complaining he wasn't v hungry yet he took so many pieces... in the end he was so bloated... haha! then he missed 171 at the bus stop and i managed to psyco him to take 184 from the interchange with me... well he would be paying slightly more for taking 2 buses but at most it's only the cost of 1 fishball man! haha... he still insisted that taking 171 is cheaper but i kept suaning abt that fishball... haha... too greedy liaoz see! okie gtg zZz... niteZ

yoZ...woke up so early today & the bad weather in the morning wrecked my plans... supposed to have squash training at Cashew Heights in the morning then play basketball with tian cai... Jason told me last minute that the courts were indeed closed and unbookable for the time being...well I thought Chuanlu could still come over for basketball then allafa sudden it started pouring heavily...so guess what? ended up playing squash at the CC with Chuanlu from 10.30am to 12.30pm while the rain never stopped...
then went for a hair cut near my place...got home & went out again... supposed to meet Suyi at hwa chong at 2.30pm but i was late for like an hour... she had wanted me to tutor her some chem stuff (but the topic turned out to be one tt wasn't in my syllabus during my time)... when i reached hwa chong i was slightly disturbed at seeing all the closed side gates... had to walk a big round to enter from the carpark to the class bench when there were like so still many pple in school! why weren't the gates opened? freaking made me walk one big round... anyway Suyi seems more cheerful now than last time... she's changed for the better... the class bench was too noisy for any discussion (coz lion dance pple trg) so i suggested we go chinese high... met Ying Feng unexpectedly near the basketball courts... apparently he saw Suyi & tried to pass some funny comments abt us... haha~ no use suaning my mei²... went through her chem tutorial on NMR... something i didn't even know... yet i managed to figure out how to solve her problems... went home at around 6pm... the weather after the morning rain seems much better... so cooling & cloudy... i had been listening to FM92.4 whole day on my mini portable radio... i like classical music! heh...okie it's getting late gtg niteZ

helloZ... Yay~ I'm finally blogging again... I'm so glad... The past week's full of surprises man...
I had fever on Sunday night...so horrible! woke up every hour of the night breaking into cold sweat...virtually didn't sleep... felt better on Monday & i was supposed to book in camp by 2359 coz there was military exercise on Tuesday but my mum brought me to see doctor... she was afraid i haven't recovered well to be able to take the physical stress... and that how i got 2 days MC... the doctor said i haven't recovered fully... booked in on Wednesday morning and went outfield straightaway... but exercise was going to cut soon and my madam was so kind enough to let me off early to prepare for my squash competition in the evening... oh i forgot to mention something... i met Wanjun on the LRT when i was going to camp on that Wednesday morning! had a nice chat with her... haven't seen her for so long... i felt so happy after seeing her... meeting her probably lifted my original dampened mood while booking in camp on such an odd day... I still have this wonderful feeling even today... haha... meeting her was lucky coz she said she usually ain't as late... and as lucky as meeting her i won my squash match in the evening even after a 2 weeks lay-off... i may have gotten some kinda *Lucky Charm* =) Had full day trg today... managed to catch the last episode of 'xi you ji hou zhuan' on Channel 8 this evening... it was such a happy and good ending... if everything in the world would end happily that would be so nice... okie gtg zZz niteZ

yoZ... Yay~ My foot has healed 99.9%! I'm so glad i went to see doctor in time otherwise i don't think i can recover so fast... My mum fell sick... got into some sort of depression... dunno what's wrong with her... she don't like seeing me in front of the computer coz she's complaining the radiation from the monitor is too harmful... I shall try to please her by not touching the computer for the next couple of days... So that means no blogging... So sorry pple =) I'll try to make up for it once I can come online again...tataZ

yoZ...i'm really amazed at the rate my foot is healing...think it'll be very soon when i can start enjoying sports again! Yay~ I have been feeling like a handicapped person for the past week... Poor thing rite? But slacking days will be gone soon... Went to Orchid Park Condo in the evening... Our F-grade squash match was against UCSC... Chalked up another well deserved win after we fielded our reserve team players... I didn't want to play coz I didn't want to hinder the full recovery of my foot... discovered that Ryan came despite having a fever... told him I won't risk playing him on the spot although he kept saying he would be alright... end up our team's top 2 seeds (me & Ryan) didn't play... but we still won them 3-1... Zhenghong lost his tie against a Caucasian named Jerome... That bald & cool headed opponent was surprisingly deceptive and tricky... Zhenghong couldn't handle him and made too many unforced errors... One interesting point was that Jerome's girlfriend or probably wife was there supporting him... heh... u all knew I was gonna say his gf is v chio rite? haha... she was standing just beside me throughout the whole game... and guess what she's a Singaporean Chinese who prefers to speak English... chio bu always attracts my attention... that's not the point i'm emphasising but it's the first time one initiated a pleasant conversation with me... Anyway she left a good impression on my mind when she left... Got a lift from Darrell to Thomson where I took bus home... His dad was driving in pyjamas! haha... Spent a long time to wash my wound when i got home... sickening but i have no choice...okie gtg tataZ

yoZ...went to CCK Polyclinic this morning to see doctor... I was amazed i managed to hobble my way there... the place wasn't as crowded as it should be on normal Mondays perhaps becoz of SARS... fewer pple would want to associate themselves with hospitals and clinics...Anyway had a undergo a SARS screening before entering the premises... was normal as expected coz i didn't have fever... I came to see doctor abt my foot! got one day MC and some medication (hopefully they are useful)... Went home and changed then i booked in camp to settle some important stuff... got my MO to endorse my MC and got my off pass signed... I won't need to go back to camp for the rest of the week! Yay... that's good coz i'll have plenty of time to rest my foot... Went to Kallang in the evening coz there was E grade squash match against Chinese Swimming Club... We won quite convincingly...and everyone put in commendable effort today... that's the great team spirit and concentration! Shared cab with Ryan, who was on his way back to his camp...and i forgot to chip in the cab fare... *Oops*... Will pay back the next time =) okie gtg niteyniteZ

yoZ...I was quarantined at home again...this time I did it to myself...to curb me from certain desires that could lead to aggravating my foot injury... Slacked the whole day! what a "wonderful" way to spend a bright Saturday... Think my foot is just beginning to heal... the skin is beginning to harden but occasionally it'll be painful... *Ouch* accidentally kicked against the foot of the computer table... Tomorrow I'll stay at home again... don't think i'll go out coz i am determined to rest my foot! okie gtg...no long stories to crap...tataZ

yoZ pple...nice to be having fun during a rare public holiday like this... Yesterday's trg was everything but relaxing...wasn't easy at all for me probably becoz of my bandaged right foot... I still trained despite having abrasion and foot rot...now it has gotten worse...serves me right! I knew i shouldn't have even exercised... I shall vow not to torture my foot and hinder the healing process from now till my foot heals completely...
Yesterday's dinner was good! went out after training to meet oec and tian cai at Adam Road Food Centre...we had the heavenly nasi lemak... each of us ordered a "Full House" which cost $4... it's a serving of aromatic rice, ikan bilis, otah, chicken wing, cucumber & cabbage plus wonderful chilli sauce! oec couldn't believe his eyes when he saw the ice-kacang tian cai & me ordered...it's as high as Mt Everest..haha! He thought if he ordered he won't be able to finish it so he ordered an ice-jelly which has only the height of Bukit Timah Hill... After our sumptuous dinner we went to NTUC at Coro...bought pizzas for supper! Watched the repeat telecast of ManU vs Arsenal on ESPN when we reached tian cai's place... surprisingly we slept early after supper! Usually we play mahjong till 4am in the morning...but we slept around 12 midnight... I was as usual the 1st to wake up...at 9am...the other 2 were still snoring like pigs... *Oops* just revealed something again... I dunno if i snore I hope not...but the other 2 leh... heh! was the 1st to have breakfast... watched Birmingham vs Sunderland alone till they woke up at 11am... oec gotta rush for lunch with Qingyuan & his friends so left only tian cai & me... we were bored so we started playing table tennis... yup but using our left hands to hold the bats... haha! I suggested that we play using our left hands coz more fun... end up we devised a funny way to play the game... we switched holding the bats from left land to right hand and vice versa everytime after each of us hit the ball... Anyway i haven't lost my table tennis skills...it's still as good as ever...okie i gtg and rest! tataZ

yoZ pple... i'm going for squash trg soon...got to reach GRC by 2pm before the gate closes... Anyway yesterday's match was a breather for me... I thrashed that poor guy upside down...9-3, 9-2, 9-1... He got fewer points every set...haha... I'm still unbeaten & on a winning streak! Yay~ I was handicapped u know... had my whole right foot bandaged...it was so painful...stupid foot rot!
Had a good night's sleep yesterday...coz i got a new pillow...the dust mite free type plus a cover...cost me $30! haha...since when did i start indulging in materialistic stuff?!? I must treat myself good sometimes i guess... But tonight I'll be going over to tian cai's place to stay overnight with oec...so i'll miss sleeping on my new pillow... Will look forward to going Adam Road Food Centre where i'm gonna try out the nasi lemak and ice kacang...okie gtg for trg...tataZ

Today's inspiration...
"Resolve to be a master of change rather than a victim of change."

yoZ...feel that this Blogger is damn stupid...the server screwed up my template and i lost my archives... Fortunately i still have some backup...that's why my blog is still here! didn't do much stuff today...spent the whole day refurbishing my room... I've thrown away my old pillow and bloster...tonight won't have anything to cuddle...*sigh* But tmr morning i'll go shopping for a new pillow! You guys should see how clean and nice my room is now... I'm quite exhausted after all the tidying...going to sleep soon i think... Stupid foot rot struck again! i dunno if the fungal infection is like last time...seems abit different from last time to me...maybe the fungi mutated? haha...now i have to keep my feet super dry using foot powder... Gotta carefully wash it with listerine and soap when i bathe... Before sleep apply aloe vera...argh so troublesome! tmr there's a squash match again...hope that i can play well despite my foot rot...it'll be real painful... think i'll go and buy some padding for my foot to prevent further abrasion...Yanjun says it's available at any pharmacy...I shall go Guardian tmr at BPP...okie gtg niteZ
