Sunday, July 24, 2005 @ updating
updating again..got this come to me now no need to fight with my elder brother..hmm he should be sleeping by now..wonder wat he did today.surely made alot of frenz..hope he won't get bullied by the sargeants or other platoon mates who is bigger den him.
sayang jugak aku kat abang aku.haha.
Train today after a nap.. haha.at first aim to run 10 rounds in the end run 8 or 9 round.tak leh angkat. must do alot man. and i know that the push up i always do is not a standard one.crap.
after the sweaty day,hit the shower room at the stadium to have a shower.
Its the Young lions changing room too. You all know how the standard of the toilets in this particular stadium. If you donno den go and find which one i'm talking about. Wah.
can't believe that the soccer team which will be our National players representing our nation is having a bad condition toilet. At least they should be more conscious. When will the soccer standard in S'pore increase if they are giving them a low standard toilet.
I mean i spent not more than half of the day at the toilet. It suppose to be the cleanest place. and a wonderful place to drop your shit.
k lets stop about this toilet thingy
After the train we walk and walk and walk until reach safra. play pool for a while. Can believe she won be by that black 8 ball. haiz.It was a good game though. Surely she gain alot.haha.
den walk again till home.

Thursday, July 21, 2005 @ uncertain future
ya i'm having another dilemma about my future. Uncertain which road i'm taking.Its like I'm walking in circles. Donno wat to do what to take. Argh!! Dammit.
Talk with some seniors of mine and how they handle their life. One of them is in SAF Central Band. Ya. But now in NAFA stdying. Fully sponsored by the government. While he is in there he took some part time course and got himself both diploma and degree in marketing. He also conduct school band which the band got GWH frm a COP. He's good. One of my role model.
Should i continue the path i'm already in or should i just sidetrack and go for something new? can never escape from problems. Which will lead to stress which will lead to depression which will lead to poor health before i'm 6 feet under.just joking. hah.

- Well first of all I surely can't survive as a soloist in Singapore unless somebody wanna sponsor me. hee.
- the band scene in S'pore is beginning to open so it won't be time soon that it will reach to its peak. So at least in the force i can play and earn a living
- got full govt support.
- peform,perform and more perform
- No use study so high and get a diploma in smething and in the end just throw the cert one side
- My father advise me to.
ya..wanna be someone in uniform.
