19th Birthday 2011

A huge hug and a big thank you to all whom wished me a Happy Birthday via Facebook, sms, Whatsapp and so on. Really do appreciate it alot and hope that when time comes for your birthday, you'll have the same mass wishes too.

I'm kinda feeling rejuvenated although I just had like 6 hours of sleep. Not ample enough but it could be the thought of my birthday which I've been anticipating since who knows when.

Was hanging out at Lagoon View last night when I received many calls from friends. Even of those whom I thought might have been gone or lost. We used to have conflicts but yet you guys still have the heart to call me and wish me. I really do appreciate it and I swear it was a really nice feeling. Till now its kinda shocking though but the hatred or whatsoever in me built up has finally been expelled out of my mind.

Tonight would basically be like home-cooked Prawn Noodles for dinner at my place then thereafter would be Zouk (Trance night starring Markus Schulz).

Feels kinda weird though as it seemed that I had just celebrated my 18th Birthday and having bad times lurking and lingering around me. Oh well, I definitely dare to say that this year was kinda like better but its just gonna hit the 2nd quarter of the year and so can't foresee whats ahead for me especially with regards pertaining about my enlistment in the Army.

Today is the day whereby my dad's seed fusing with my mom's egg and then being popped out after 9 months of captivity. I love my parents for giving me this life but of course at times I will definitely feel fucked up and all and blame them or whatsoever, but whose kid doesn't??

Anyway it's time to repeat again that Genting is approaching in less than 2 weeks! This is to -----> Lionel, Nav and Vicnesh! It may not seem like a big of a deal to head to Genting but come on seriously, its good for me!

Anyway I will get tons of pictures of tonight and will post them yea.

Still in bed doing this post!

Once again thank you all and love you all!

 Something about honesty

Confucius defined several levels of Honesty. Starting from shallow and ending with deep, the levels are as follows:
Li, wanting to appear truthful for your own personal gain.
Yi, doing what is right on the basis of how you would like to be treated in return.
Ren, based on the most sincere form of empathy toward all others that are different from you in age, gender, culture, experience, family, etc.

Just a random thought of it, Confucius is really mad with his way of thinking and all but he's cool..cool...cool.

Anyway, it was an exhausting day at work, really tired and felt queasy in my stomach the entire day, could be that was drinking 4 days in a row since Thursday.

Exercised, pull-ups, running, crunches..... all set for trying out my NAPFA.

Genting in close to 2&1/2 weeks time. So excited and had been in my mind ever since my friends and myself were discussing about it, even way before booking it. Cold weather, the theme park, SAFARI club, great food and most importantly great company. Sounds like I've already went there but I know what to expect as I've been there countless number of times.

Just had my dinner like 45 minutes ago, I saw a plate of like charred meat with dried chillies. I tried the dish and felt that it tasted funny and gamy. Didn't bother and so swallowed. Then when I was picking for another piece, I realised something weird about it and so I asked my domestic helper what was it, guess what? I just ate a fucking RABBIT! My mom is to be blamed, how can you eat such cute and furry stuff even if it's a hare instead of any other pet rabbits! Arghhh! Feeling so sinful, I know its nothing as what we normally eat too give other people the same feeling of disgust when they don't have the same diet as us. Anyway, I'm sorry bunny! I just ate your leg thinking that it was a drumstick.

My stomach feels even worse now after my accidental consumption of the poor bunny. I've got to be more disciplined now at work like gotta work from 9.30am - 6.30pm everyday as I have a new and interesting assignment to handle, shall reveal when the time is right. Its really something new and an eye-opener for me, hopefully I won't screw it up.

This Saturday is my BIRTHDAY for your information so yeap. Just stating this only, not as if I'm hinting to anyone about receiving any gifts or anything....HEHEHE! I don't mind though.

Well, lengthy post but hope its good enough for you guys to read up :)

Shall turn in early tonight, can't tahan already...

Recently I've been doing alot of running and like doing basic exercise like crunches, pull ups, push ups and squats for like almost every other day. Been quite satisfied with myself though as I've never been so like consistent with my fitness. My body is getting into shape I think... 'I think' yea not boasting haha!

Today didn't run as I did it yesterday and almost sprained my foot hopping over a curb at a point of turning... just imagine what if I do sprain it, I can't run for at least a week and it'll push my regime back by a week. I know its kind of like a rush right now to race through my fitness level and train up, but I least I'm making an effort and not thinking that it's too late.

Fitness aside, the quotes on my facebook are of my own originality, if you've seen something similar elsewhere, I guess its just plainly coincidental alright. I know I dont look bright enough to come up with quotes, but please, I'm capable of thinking one or two at times.

Next Saturday is the day to mark my 19th year in this world, commemorating the hundreds of thousands of dollars which my family especially both my mom and dad had spent on me. And for this birthday, they might have to spend more haha!

Alright I'm heading to IKEA now, be right back later

Night review

A fine but lazy Sunday indeed. Woke up at 2.30pm, dozed off again and waking up for my run and all, what a day, although relaxed being at home almost the entire time but of course contradictorily kinda tired from the work out and late night though.

Last night was good, a change of menu once again for the highly on demand Barbecue. We had Cajun seasoned-prawns on the grill, the best and the highlight of the barbecue and Shishamo (pregnant fish) although it wasn't that popular and to most people's liking. But the prawns was definitely a hit! Everyone loved it as it was marinated by yours truly heheheh! Don't have a picture of it though as I always forget to snap some pictures of the course of everything most of the time, I promise I'll do it the next time round alright. But I did took a short video though hehe.

As our loved beer (Summit Beer) was sold out, we had no choice but to get a more expensive alternative, Sapporo! Amazingly yesterday was a sober night for me, I just had 2 cans, felt bloated and all already so discontinued further. We had a bottle of whisky but no one carried on and so I took it back. We must finish it the next time round yea.

I can't wait for Genting. Been saying it over and over again but it's really killing me! It used to be like, awwww there's still 2 more months to go (we grumbled) and now its like just 3 weeks more to go! So excited and enticing! The thought of it just makes me drop my worries and unhappiness everytime haha.

Anyway, this is the burger from last night, doesn't it look so much more succulent and vibrant compared to the previous time?

A mini-clip from last night

People reading my blog would probably think that, Irwin and his friends are fucking boring, always having the same old shit every weekend. I can't blame you people but I do beg to differ, this is what I enjoy most and this is also what makes my friends and myself bond even stronger. 

Anyway, I'll be doing some other stuff and will prescribe more dosage of my world another time.

Guess what was on my mind the entire morning? If you've noticed my facebook status, that's a hint. I'm extremely curious about how I'd look when I'm bald. Ugly because my head is not perfectly rounded? Nice as its neat and clean? Wah!! The though of it just kept flashing across my mind. You may think that I might as well shave it now and answer my own dilemma right but look, what if it's ugly? I have parties to attend, vacation and activities to do, what if I look sadly ugly in my pictures. You see,  I think too much, giving myself unnecessary stress. I feel that I've aged alot though, I'm putting on weight as my metabolism slowed down which shows that stress is partly contributing to this. Oh well, at least I'm putting on weight rather than losing, I will look drastic if I lose weight from my previous stature.

Two days at work without my colleagues at my side, kinda quiet though, one left for Pulau Redang (Damn fucking shiok!) and the other had taken medical leave for 3 days. So gotta settle my lunch soon all by myself :( It's alright, gotta toughen up and not whine too much hehe.

Went for my run last night again, was not too bad and I could feel that I'm filling up my pants pretty soon which is positive as I might be gaining muscles on both of my legs but negative as I might need to get new trousers or berms if I can't fit in what I have further. Such a hassle!

Anyway, I gotta make good use of whatever time left to enjoy my life out of captivity. Plenty of stuff awaits! I have jotted down so many things to do!!

Ciao

Finally Laura Tham met me! She did YOGA then we had dinner, lastly coffee with hazel. YOGA! Hehe.. Laura don't kill me yea, it's good! Healthy! Hehe

Anyway, town sucks! No matter how much money you have to afford a good ride home, you'd still can't get a cab. I tried calling and guess what, got rejected 15 times, Laura depended on her message-sending method. But our efforts were to no avail and we had to take the fucking train home! Seriously, cab drivers out there, stop complaining about not having any passengers when there are all around but yet you guys are nowhere to be seen! Reached home around 10ish close to 11? Got changed and went for my run. YES! MY RUN! Surprised? Don't be... I have no choice... The run was quite tormenting and I almost collapsed haha... But I ran for a good 21 minutes :)

Zouk... It's been a while since I last patronised you... evern since my friends' and my sister's farewell. Laura and Hazel kept persuading and asked me to get the guys to go over this weekend and stop with our own gathering like barbecues and stuff hahaha. We'll try but no promises.

Feeling the most comfortable today as I'm wearing my Bermudas to work. Haha! Had been like wearing pants and today I bent the rules for once. So casual and shiok!!!

Can't wait to actually knock off today, meeting my friends for dinner but then again, heading back for my run so gotta watch what I eat too hehe.

Gotta work unlike most of you people at home reading to this while I gotta work my ass off..

Remember me ranting about not receiving my enlistment letter for close to a year? I finally received it 2 days ago. The orange letter was so obvious that I was actually quite reluctant to open it. But I knew the day had been chosen and my fate was destined. I tore the slits and realised that I was posted directly into the 41st Battalion Singapore Armoured Regiment at Kranji Camp II. Not heading to Tekong. This was really a blow to me but kinda had expected it as my highest qualification to date is just my O'Levels. By the way, 10th of June 2011 is the day.

I typed 41 SAR into the google search bar, and to my astonishment, there were quite a number of forums to look at. I clicked onto them and started reading, the next thing I knew was that my tears were rolling. Many stated that it was one of the toughest unit and also the intimidating Detention Barack was also located within its vicinity. But I knew that nothing could change already. Before even searching, I called my mom, dad and grandparents, they were surprised and kinda like consoled me. I called my brother too and realised that he was of the same camp but of a different posting or some sort.

Another 60 more days and I will be in a place where its not familiar to me at all even though I belonged to the NCC during my Secondary school days. I consoled myself and put up a positive front, trying hard to not think of it but I was of no use. Went for dinner and the news of course broke out, everyone was like happy but kinda worried for me though haha. Thereafter, headed back home, got changed and went to J Bar. It was a pleasant night, talking about what I'd expect in the army, the excitement of our Genting trip. It was all good till when it was time for bed after taking a shower.

I laid on my cold bed without my blanket, pondering and harping on to the issue about army. Thinking of how I can deal with it and how to handle it positively making it a breeze for me. But it was extremely difficult to concentrate on the positive things. Had no choice but cried and slept it off.

I'm thankful to those whom were supporting me all these while. I know that NS is a must and everyone has to go through it, I know but pardon me for being too emotional as I still do need a couple of days to digest it. I will eventually, not to worry. I really miss my sister and hope she'll be back before I leave and only able to get to see her by the end of the year if she comes back after I get into the army. Would like to thank my brother for the brotherly support I've received all these while, deeply appreciated and also to my close friends by me.

When the day arrives, it will be a whole new episode in my life, may God watch over me and good luck to myself.

A quiet night previously but good enough to take a break at home and browsed through channels, finding some interesting and interactive programmes to watch. Oh yea! I love Banged Up Abroad!! This morning woke up by the annoyance of my alarm, so reluctant but had no other ways of getting income so gotta head to work as usual. I really can't wait for my vacation trips like seriously! What shall I do for my birthday this year? Hmm nothing special about turning 19 but yet it's better to have a gathering at least, can't expect me to not celebrate and treat it as if its of an ordinary day. Probably gathering at a private wine place. See how la yea.

I love black and white so much that I'm wearing my favourite black/white checkered shirt today! Just a random thought, find it lame? Fuck off..

Been thinking throughout the week what to do over this weekend... Not heading to the clubs anyway, but we've always have like plans over the weekends after planning instantaneously but yet for this week, I'm in a dilemma man.

Oh well, gotta head back to my work..

I feel good today, waking up at 9 in the morning despite having a late chill-out drinking night previously. As usual was at Miss U Cafe till like 12.30am. Was intending to have a run yesterday but guessed should allow my whatever muscles to recover and so today shall be the day that I resume my recent regime and goal. I wanna be healthier and have a good stamina so as not to suffer in the army as you people should know I'm damn fucking lazy and I'm quite scrawny too hehe! And also to stop my family members and friends from saying that I'm lazy, body growing flabbier and not exercising at all. The best part is that my mom always nagged at me like asking me not to cry and call home during my first few months if I suffer due to my poor fitness level.

I felt the sense of satisfaction and accomplishment when I started to put on my sports apparel and shoes and just headed out and jogged for 20+ minutes on Monday. But of course, it was due to my friend's encouragement and motivation too. I can't believe I did it as I've not really worked out for quite some time and had been contemplating about training up before my letter arrives. but during the process, I managed to jog non-stop at a comfortable pace except when I crossed the road, I walked.... but I panted like fuck! Almost died and even not having my mobile phone with me, if something happens, no one knows man..hahaha!

Last night was so chilled out, was like after a day of working for long hours, it was good to unwind for the night and head to work slightly later the following day, like what I did today. A bottle of wine, talk cock, quiet ambience. How I wish I can do this even alone for the rest of my life! Hahaha!

24 more days till my 19th birthday. Just imagine the excitement one has upon turning 18 and now, I'm gonna turn 19. 2010 passed so quickly although it wasn't really a smooth year. Oh well, at least I did had my fun during last year.

Hopefully Bintan on the first week of next month would be made possible, need to get a tan to look healthier but always getting burnt and the shedding of skin, then back to whiteness. Guess it will be fun as the highlight of the resort trip would be kite-boarding or some sort like it. Oh yea, and Genting on the 2nd week. Cool weather is the best for one who is as hot-headed like me. It's also time for me to get my driver's licence, had been procrastinating and pondering over the issue and hassle of getting it since my 18th birthday last year. Sucks to take the public transport when I have a car left alone when my dad seldom drives it and also my sister Amanda is studying in Melbourne...What a WASTE!

A random but interesting post I guess? Anyway, gotta head back to work as I came in late, but good enough that I can at least squeeze in quite a wordy and lengthy post aye?

See ya!

A very fine day indeed. Ain't sure why but I'm definitely in my best mooddddddd. So elated and hyper today. Talked too much and probably annoyed my colleagues hehehe!

Anyway, a review about the past few days, on Saturday night, it was a fun filled gathering, laughter, beer, healthy steamboat and baccarat-drinking game. Thanks guys for coming! Really do love such sort of company/gathering over a quiet weekend without going to the clubs or whatsoever, saving up money for my vacation trips too.

Although I may seem to be happy out of the blue, several cases or news had made me realised what a shady and sad world I'm residing in, such as the news about a young girl who was pinned under a train and a disgusting and heartless mother who pimps her own daughter. So saddening but what to do? Anyway, there's actually nothing much to share for today, so I'll leave it as it is and probably post something later...oh yea, regarding about my autobiography posts, I shall stop for a moment. No particular reasons at all. Don't ask, won't tell :)
