my future student Shi Ming is probably the mastermind behind the revival of my blog. all my beloved, loyal visitors shall bear witness to this. must thank her for some motivation. I haven't blogged for nearly a year. everyone knows this. not that i am too busy or too lazy to blog. i used to blog for another reason. which is to satisfy myself emotionally. now i'm making myself happy by being more sociable and meeting new friends.
for once i managed to catch my best friend online and we exchanged viewing webcams. he showed me his room layout in the US. cool man. his room is as cosy as mine. haha! though my desk is like much bigger than his pathetically small pc desk. anyway i showed him my room too. nice to keep in contact visually. not that i didn't miss him. i'm just delighted that we both strive to keep in contact with each other. it's some kinda high level chemistry few people would understand. and i'm basking in the warmth of such a close yet long-distance relationship. haha! MSN rules man. promised him that when he's coming back for a short 3 weeks in Dec, we would spend quality time together. playing basketball, ping pong, soccer, snooker, staying over, buffeting. can't imagine life without him. he is an ultimate source of motivation in my life. as i am to him (i hope). haha! that one he gotta acknowledge otherwise that latter statement won't be valid.
bought a sling bag for my sis's birthday present. think it's quite nice. she forever likes pinky stuff. which girl doesn't. haha!
anyway went to bugis and kallang in the evening to settle some stuff with my sponsor and then my boss the national coach. took a lift home. nice to reach home early though i was so far away. i could have taken much longer.

today was exceptionally enjoyable. gave Lydia tuition in the early afternoon. glad it's finally the last session. her A level chemistry is gonna be over in no time. and she should be able to score predictably well. she kinda aced her prelims 2 months ago. a smart and hardworking girl she is. i'm glad to help her achieve the grades she actually deserves. it's an honour to have this teacher-student-friend relationship. guess years down the road this respect and friendship won't just simply end. she's a nice friend to keep for life since she's already attached. haha!
after that met jason at bugis to travel down to pasir ris. met my dear friend steven and the 3 of us shared a cab to changi beach club to play squash. steven just came back from switzerland last week and he actually bought me tax free Bailey's Irish Cream from DFS which i asked for! he's a real sincere and good friend. interesting and meaningful company in the absence of my best friend who is now still in US. this guys is like the boss of an IT firm and runs the firm on his own with his staff of course. he's quite established financially. i quite admire his down to earth character despite his wealthy upbringing. he's independent and knowledgeable. good conversationalist. and i can go on talking about his good attributes. the only difference we have is probably some moral issues which i won't elaborate on much. basically it has something to do with sex, prostitutes and a liberal society. he had his fair share of education in Australia and was exposed to the open society over there. he's been exposed to many things that i have never been coz i haven't been really out of Singapore. that explains his differing views on some issues like the red light district of Geylang and related stuff. anyway i do enjoy his intelligent company. so did jason. knowing him, he was quite reluctant to travel all the way from panjang to changi. but for the fact that before steven left for his switzerland trip, he came over to cashew heights to play squash with us, jason obliged to return the sincerity of our friend. so we had an enjoyable evening from 5pm to 7.30pm where we played squash non stop. haha. after showering in the luxurious restroom, we left the club for tampines mall coz i suggested dining at pastamania. was utterly famished and wanted to carbo-load. so ordered like ocean baked pasta, potato salad, hawaiian pizza, mushroom cream soup, garlic bread and ice lemon tea. what a feast although it wasn't a buffet. i shall buffet someday soon when i can find company! miss buffet. so reached home not too early. my siblings were all asleep already. they have sch tmr. and i need to restring both my rackets tmr as the strings broke one after another. so need to wake up early tmr to find my sponsor and settle some issues.
shall post again soon when i have the time. and i have a good feeling that i will be having alot of time soon coz my exams are coming soon. meaning no more sch and lectures. but lotsa time to plan my studying and other activities to see out my exam period. looking forward to a possible ktv session next week organised by chuan. my SMU squash students very onZ. really like their spirit. they always make me happy. and i make them happy too. cheers man!
