Back to blog!

It's a Sunday = "booked in" day. Arghh..Time passed so fast during weekend. This week we had our Guards Parade..That four days of agonizing pain and mentally torturing field camp had turn us into the elites. Or at least that's what they say so..Whatever...it's over..









NONE of my closest turn up for my parade..Knowing that, Hong's sis and daddy offered to put on the guards tab and collar pin onto me. I'm touched by their move.











*Notice the red tab on the LVB:We won the best section among all the other 30 sections in other companies

Life without You

Life w/o you this few months seems a bit meaningless. Same old routine coming back and forth from work. Occasionally meeting up some old friends..chilling out. So near yet so far, 3 more days and you will be back in Singapore. And 2 more weeks i 'll be departing to Tekong...what the hell..

Okie..my dad is back..Gotta be his chauffeur and send him to a wedding dinner..

2008 Honda Fit (Pearl Purple)



The dream of owning a car finally surfaced. Collected our ride 2 weeks back. Went through hell of negotiation(bargaining for bodykit and accessories) before signing on the dotted line, patience(loan approval), anxiety(COE Bidding), frustration(Delivery of Vehicle) and indefinite satisfaction.

Buying a car which cost almost 60K was never easy, neither did i imagine will be this troublesome. Perhaps it will be a lot more hassle-free if i were to opt for "Authorize Dealer" instead of "Parallel Import". But AD only offer its 2008 Jazz in probably 2nd or 3 quarter, therefore we decided to stick with PI.

Intention of us going for PI is simple. Parts are assemble in Japan and imported to us directly. Unlike AD, car is manufactured in Thailand, therefore workmanship has to be compromised. Price from PI is deemed more attractive and tons of accessories like leather seats, bodykit, GPS, sports rims, ICE(In Car Entertainment) can be included depending on your purchasing power. Warranty on motor parts is also covered to a period of 5 years or 100,000km whichever is lower. After-sales service depends a lot on the assigned workshop by the PI.

Buying a car is like a investment paring with the rise of petrol and maintainance cost. Beside the will of investing the money into this involuntary gadget, it also bond and foster good relationship to the ones around. Having one that doesn't need it is much better than me needing it but doesn't have one. Ermm..well, at least to me!

















Came across this blog (http://sgparkingidiots.blogspot.com/) which actually showcase and shame local drivers who don't bother to park their car properly. Right or wrong? You decide!

Do i have to?

Hasn't been blogging for the past few months due to my work commitment. Sadly, there will not be much time left for me though (enlisting into army on 13th March).

The more i think, the more i felt remorseful. For all the mistakes i had made in my young days, i actually have to compromise on so many important phrase of my life thereafter.

Though I'm only 23, must admit that I'm not young,and people of my age are beginning to move on to bigger responsibilities. Yet i have to spend another 2 years making up for the mistakes. Ironically, i wouldn't have learn so much and met so many wonderful people if not for that very fatal downfall.

Often in dreams more than in reality, i have displayed great dedication and enthusiasm in the professional working bodies. The hunger for self-growth and continuous learning has yearn yet another chapter in my life. Ever-searching is what i dream of, recognition on the other side of the coin, is what i achieved for.

Hmm..not implying that serving the nation is a waste of time. But to look at it at a larger picture, i feel that it dis-integrates me from the society. Nevertheless, I'm still looking forward to it. :)

Batam Getaway

A night of short-getaway in BATAM. Booked the "Batam View Beach Resort" along the coast of country-side. No doubt, excellent customer service accompanied by great sea view room. Guaranteed more fun if not for the monsoon season.

We decided to go shopping in Nagoya Town after our swim in the hotel before dinner. So we head down to the reception counter and request for a Taxi service, we even requested a mandarin speaking, so to make communication more easier. Advice to wait 5 mins at the lobby.

This same receptionist came back to us and asked if we know where we want to go and if we were ready to go.."Puzzled".."Yeah, of coz we're ready, just waiting for the cab driver." "Im your driver for the night",replied the receptionist. what the hell?

Receptionist "cum" Taxi-driver "cum" Bartender "cum" House-Keeper
They sure know how to role-play
