Sentosa! Island Life Love IT!
Went to Sentosa Siloso beach today. Really fun day out. Met darling, charlene, jacky, and kenneth for the day out. Started with canoeing, first time i've canoeed at Sentosa and first time with darling. Played volley ball and frisbee too. Swam in the sea quite abit too.
The queue for shower was terrible long and later dinner was good. Good day out, and oh ya! Edwin dropped out of the WRX challenge after 15 hours. Wasted siah, but hey! I can't stand for that long! I can't even survive 5 hours on my foot!

4:14 AM and i'm not asleep. I just can't sleep.
Went to watch Edwin take part in the WRX challenge. Wahahaha, it was really entertaining and fun to watch the event actually happening and when there's a friend in there, nicer. The sun fried the challenge, the rain soaked them through and through. But they all stood strong, most of them. The last man (or lady) with he(/her) palm on the car wins the Subaru Impreza WRX. This car is a monster, and it's worth it, won countless World Rally Championships.

Went to darling's house to watch VCD yesterday. Watched Dolphin Bay, the serial i watched half way since god knows how long ago. Entertaining, but not fantastic. Went for dinner at Fish&Co later. First time we shared a Seafood Platter for One. It's enough for us to be full, so this it's the way to go. In the past, Fish And Co means overeating. no more... Oh ya, we brought her little sister along, the kids menu is so cute. And nice, the kids' size Fish & Chips serving look really big, and there's a drink! How cool! I think i have one complaint about Fish and Co, their servings are sooo huge but their food is so delicious that you can't help finishing everything. That's sooo unhealthy, gobbling down so much of food. Wasting precious calories... Think the kids size is the right size for an adult.
Made pancakes in the morning again. It's soo fun, and pancakes make such good breakfast. I did some variations in my pancakes. Did a cheese and peanut butter one. The cheese one wasn't fantastic but the peanut butter one is mmmmm-mmmmmmmmm... Yummy! Think the effect would be better if it's chunky peanut butter. I only have creamy peanut butter at home...
Yeah, our dearest clasmate Edwin made it into the WRX challenge. Going down to support him later...

Exams are finally over and YEAH!!! I'm free! I haven't had this feeling since, hmmm... 3 years ago. But I'm really glad I've clear all the exams. I'm confident of passing everything. (To ppl who wanna kao peh: I've studied my ass off, I deserve some credit, which is to pass everything comfortably) Anyway, the end of exams celebration was nothing much. Ate lunch with Cyn and her friends, Shuhan and Peifen. Then when over to Bugis Junction to wait for them shop. Dinner was home cooked goodness at my place. Cooked us some food. What a cosy little meal we had.
Most important thing that happened today was not the end of exams. It was the buying of pancake mix!! Ha! I've been craving for pancake for a long time and eating Mac Hotcakes non-stop can't help cure my craving. So what do I do? I make my own pancakes! The trial run earlier today was erm... ok-ish. I'm sure I can (in time) remember how I did my perfect pancakes back then. Exploring the other variations to boring ol'pancakes. BTW, does anyone know wat I can add to pancake mix to remove the salty taste? And what can I add to my batter to give it more flavour?
I've been reading up on www.mrbreakfast.com It's such an interesting site with millions of breakfast recipes. I can't wait for morning. Cos I wanna try to make better pancakes in the morning! I'm very particular about eating supper, unless it's a socially pressured one...
One more thing. (Warning, the following is geeky stuff).
http://zdnet.com.com/1606-2-5427817.html
Check out the video. Apple has launched 2 new Ipod variations. The U2 Ipod and the Photo IPOD! The U2 ipod is a limited edition model themed with the band U2. Looks damn cool, oh man... The other one is even cooler. The Photo Ipod! It has a coloured screen and it stores and DISPLAYS photos! Can really dump a shit load of music AND (now!) photos into the 20 Gig hard disk. It has easy connection to ANY television sets too! I think i'm sounding like a geek...

When to school to work out yesterday, saw the hard core egoistic assholes again. Why do those guy think they rule the world cos they can bench and do squats with massive weights? They gave me the "what a whimp look", but heck lah...
Met darling for lunch, Food Junction Ban mian!. Then headed to study. Turned out that both of us weren't in the mood to study. Oh man, play too much liao. And Jin Kun joined us to "study". This made things worse cos we just went on and on talking away. But it was a good catching up session, not a good studying session.
Met Marcus for waffles later. My waffle was with Cookie and Dough ice cream. And the guy at the Gelare P.S. outlet was a piece of shit of a server, attitude problem. Anyway, after the assholic incident with that ass, I had a good catch up session with Marcus, that boy has been on MC since donkey years ago. He looks like he's in good shape and he got over his "good grass"...

The weekend was spent mostly at home and I feel so well rested and ya, I'm good to go again!
Met up with a friend at Terra Cafe, our favourite cafe. The ice moocapucino is still so good. Had a good catching up session with him. Haven't since him for such a long time. Haiz, we're all busy with our own lives and we've been squeezed quite badly off our last drop of energy. I'm still amazed how he and his gal can have conflicts over all sorts of things.
Later Kok Keng joined us. This guy is crazy! He's really gone nuts studying for his exams and his "cold" jokes are really really crappy.
Met darling this morning to eat breakfast at Tampines Block 201. Nice nice... Then we headed over to Kbox at Tampines Central. At that wat's-the-name building. Singing K-Lunch is like DIRT-CHEAP. $6.40 nett for 11am till 2pm. And, we get the room to ourselves! Sang alot alot alot, for the 3 hours, we didn't need to wait for other people to sing! Very siong, but fun and tiring.
I love spending uch quality time with darling... So nice to have her around. This brings me to another issue... Why will a guy, who loves his girlfriend alot and given he's in the right state of mind, sign up on a 1 year overseas assignment? Does he still love his girl? Or is it just because the world outside bigger?

I'm up on a Saturday morning! How cool. I managed to catch Wonder Women on TV, the good old classic. It's effected are really crappy, but still, entertaining to watch. I so miss the good old days when people had the correct mindset about women's body size and shape. Wonder Women, whoever the actress was, was fleshy, toned and curvy, generally fit and healthy looking. In the world we're in now, esp Hollywood, a lady with such a figure would never make it to such a role. In these times, people like bee hoon look-a-like girls. (this bee hoon comparison is taken from HHH) Frail, soft, skinny, bleah! Anyway, point is, it's not fat to be fleshy and curvy, just that the ppl are blinded by stupid influences...
P.S. I've been crazy about Sims2. So fun!

Today was a really good day. And if you've already read, today was Cynthia baby and my 3rd Month Anniversary. It's a short period of time, but this 3 months really menas alot to cynthia and me. When we started off, we were Accidentally in Love. Very much like the song,
Accidentally in Love by Counting Crows
So she's saying what's the problem baby
What's the problem I don't know
Well maybe I'm in love (love)
Think about it every time I think about it
Can't stop thinking 'bout it
How much longer will it take to cure this
Just to cure it cause I can't ignore it if it's love (love)
Makes me wanna turn around and face me but I don't know nothing 'bout love
We are really at a lost when we discovered and acknowledged our feelings for one another. We really didn't know if this was for real or was it something both ate, and we were afraid it wouldn't last us past 3 months. And POOFFF!!!, it's three months already. I guess this means we're very much for real.
Celebration
It was a stormy afternoon, the day together started with a terribly coooold bus ride on bus 39 from Pasir Ris to Tampines Mall. The temperature was too low for a tropical boy like me. It must have been 17 degrees or so... (Based on my professional judgement from my NS life). But the cold was a good reason to cuddle up with darling on the bus. She's soooo nice to hug and soo warm.
At TM we headed straight for Seoul Garden. The restaurant we've been planning to pig out at for a really long time. And it's the first time in a loooong time, that I'm getting student's price. Food was good and surprisely fresh by Seoul Garden standards. The cooking with darling was really fun though the stupid hot plate kept spitting oil at us. Darling's a pretty good cook I must say... That's good... Didn't eat till we were going to puke, think health concious me was taking over.
She came over to my place to watch "13 Going on 30". Nice and sweet show for a day of celebration...
Happy Third Month Darling...
you really make me melt for you
And thanks for blessing from all our friends. And in case you people think my blog is getting to mushy. Fret not, the bad ass altitude will be back soon, after all of melted (by love) me solidifies....

It's our third month together tmr. I so glad that I have Cynthia and yah, we're really loving. I did this little treasure hunt thingy in her room today that led to a little present. She was sooo happy and I adore the look in her face. Aww.... She's so cute...
Three months. It's a trimester already. A little fetus would have most of it's organs and limbs developed by this time (if I don't remember wrongly) and ya, our relationship is like this little baby. Slowly but surely, growing and developing...
There was a time when (i tot) ppl said we, won't make it...
But we did...
There was a time when ppl said this relationship is too much for us to take...
But we did...

EXAMS ARE OVER!!!!
Yeah!!! Time to have fun....!!! Haha.... Today's paper was terrible! So difficult! But, hey, I'm sure I can pass. But my dream for distinction is dashed. Gone! No more! Hopefully my overalls can still be a B. Think A is gone cos I've failed my practical, so B (maybe... A) is still possible.
Ha! I don't really care about it, because the results will only reach me in one or two month's time. So for now, I can continue to live in denial and just enjoy!
P.S. Actually there's one more paper next Thurs. It's socialogy paper. But it's a simple module, shouldn't take too much effort to score.

It's been a terribly long and painful weekend. Been studying like mad for the Anatomy and Physiology Paper that's coming on Tuesday. I swear there's a million things to study for this paper. I love to attend and listen to A n P lectures and tutorials, I love the module but man... I can't stand studying it!
I have problem with concentrating over long hours, I cannot stay alert enough after five hours of study and once I cross 5 hours, I'll start dazing...
Oh man... it's less than 30 hours left to the paper, aww man...

There was a phototaking session on Monday and we were all supposed to turn up in our lab coats and name tags looking like real radiographers. And we did, there were some snaps, after that, we took some snaps on the side.

TAUFIK rocks disco!!! Voted for him. That's my first vote, can't believe i've actually voted for him. Thought his performance today was really convincing and the best of all the contestants. Sly was a piece of rocker-trying-to-disco shit. Although I do like him most of the time, he totally sucked today.
Spent a good day with darling today, as always. Went to Bugis junction to get presents for her girl friends. We had a frenzy snacks shopping session there. So shiok, loads and loads to snack on now.
Went gym earlier in the morning, it's the best work out since. I can't believe I can barbell press 40 kg!!! With quite a good amount of energy to spare.

I'm currently experiencing the after exam stress sudden relief syndrome. LIke a rubber band that has been overstretched for too long being suddenly released, I'm going crazy that my Radiation Physics paper is actually over. Anyway, it's too early to be in this mood, cos TMR is my MEDICAL RADIATION Science exam. Think i'm just too cool about stuff. I feel damn reluctant to hit the books now like I really should, and I was sitting in front of the comp wondering what I could do. While being stucked in the Yahoo! Mail sign in page, I've decided to click on the international sign in pages. It's really interesting to see the sign in page of every country. Of course, Yahoo! Singapore's sign in page most local lady(duh...). Seems like many Asian countries' page has got a different face, it's interesting, go take a look, the world is soooo diverse...

Friends out there who do no check my Friendster page regularly. This is my new about me... Damn crappy, but hey, when you're stressed out by exams, writing crappy stuff helps...
ABOUT ME
I'm scared of ghosts, i'm scared of horror movies, i get freaked by ghost stories and funny noises at night. Can't stand walking around dark creepy place. Will do it when absolutely neccessary. I'll avoid taking the lift past the 13th storey at night cos I can never forget this creepy real life story my friend told me.
I talk too fast, many times not thinking before I actually voice out my thoughts. Many times I hurt people's feelings, i'm really sorry and I'm really working on that. REally trying hard to be a better guy, for myself, for my darling and for the people around me.
Oh ya, I used to be alot heavier than I am now. I'm a successful weight lost example. BAsically I was a fat bastard, but now I'm not so fat liao, and I feel better about myself.
Attached to a wonderful girl called Cynthia... Everything about her amazes me. She's the best thing to have happened to me.
Since she is my other half, I shall write a litte "About her". She loves ghost and horror movies. She likes to do creepy things that can "provoke" my fear of ghosts. She hates me for talking too fast and not thinking before I talk. She cannot stand me when I hurt people unintentionally and yah, she don't think it's worth changing my "evil and fast" mouth for her and the people around me. She's used to be very physically active and sporty, but now, let's just say we're eating alot together and I'm the only one bothered to work out... Still, i'm not complaining, I'm lovin it... :P
(doesn't the "About Her" sound familiar? Actually... I think so too...)
Too bad guys... She's mine... : )
P.S. the "About Her" is actually her reactions to my character...

Just watched Gilmore Girls. Awww.... So nice... I can't believe that after 5 seasons, I'm still sooo crazily into this series that most would consider as a girl's TV series. Yup, the story is getting crazily interesting and sweet of course. Eh, for those who actually are following or have watched Gilmore Girls, LUKE AND LORLAI ARE TOGETHER!!!
Exams are like next week. Been studying hard, I think I'm nearly on schedule, that's good. But my schedule means no time to revise and maybe do some practices. No school today, hope to clock about 6-7 hours of study today, but as of now, I still feel like bumming around. Awww man... I need MORE coffee.
Eh, does coffee actually work???

It's been a few days since I've blogged. As you guys have figured, I've been extremely busy with my studies for the upcoming exams. Been studying quite alot and my temper is getting kinda screwed. Darling has been very understanding and yah, we will survive!
Oh ya, I've been trying to figure out my Malay. Malay elective exam is coming up soon. Oh man, I couldn't understand a single about this language, and the presentation skit will be next week! Everything's crushing in in just one (or two) days. Monday's gonna be Radiation Physics and Malay Presatation. Tuesday's gonna be Medical Radiation Science. Hope I've got the order right, hahaa, I'm been having memory problems since beginning of National Service.
Hope I survive and can walk out of the killers safely...

Woot!! It's October already! Last month was crazy, hope this month will turn out better. How can exam month be good anyway, but haiz, I'll try to make it good.
Went down to Selerang Camp for my reservist mobilization briefing, then went to eat breakfast with Mark. Aw man... why is there reservist? Headed home later feeling disapointed that darling was so near yet so far. She wasn't free to meet me when I happened to be in Pasir Ris, how often does a Central boy like be "happen to be" in the far far east anyway? but all's cool.
Came home to pack up my room, it's in battle order already, all ready to start mugging my ass off to score for my finals. I've failed my anatomy practical FUCK!!!! Need to buck up to work hard for my A n P to redeem myself by scoring better. Awww man...
Going to hit the books...
