Tiring Days...

Today had been a tiring day.... worked non-stop again... from 0730hrs all the way to 1900hrs....

Tomorrow is going to be another long day... except that i am ending at Jurong area... the journey home is going to be very long~~~

Go sleep le...

It refreshing day....

It had been a very refreshing day today... haha... I've done something which i have not been able to do for the past month or so.... that is to SLACK ~~~~

Haha... sometimes i take slacking for granted... but since all the buffalo work this month... i really appreciate my rest days more... although it's a lied rest day... still.... haha..

As the Chinese saying goes :" 不经冬寒，不知春暖。"
You will always appreciate something after you lose it... or have less of it...

But it wasn't that slack actually...

Woke up rather early to do the dog-walking... now I'm seeing less of big dogs... but there seem to be an increase in small dogs... i even saw a young Husky... which was quite cute... haha... forgot to take a picture of it... and i got to walk it too... haha
It sort of showed it's nature... haha.... I've read that Huskies are actually cousins of wolves or something... when i was walking it.. it suddenly lied down... refusing to move... then when another volunteer with another dog walked closed... it suddenly rush out... trying to bite the other dog... -_-"

Luckily.... I've anticipated that... and pulled the leash tight to me... and i am strong enough to hold it back... ^_^
But you'll be surprise... small as it is... it's quite strong...

This session is actually a respond to SPCA's call for help... the volunteers are getting lesser... and since i just nice got a free day.. decide to go lor.. very long never play with dogs le... haha...

After that.. went home... watched CJ7... thanks to HK... haha...

And in the evening.. met up with one of the lobang employees to get my lobang... haha... as shown... only the tickets... the soy milk is mine~~~
Deliberately put them to add something to the otherwise simple shot... haha...

Ok.. no link~~

Helping them to do some advertising... haha... since I'm sort of linked to them... ^_^

But alas.... the slacking moments are not meant to last... the next 2 days are very long days for me... I have to reach Yishun area at 0730hrs.... can you imagine that~~~~

Oh well... that's life... Haiz...

The final decision....

Well... finally decided... I shall stay as it is... Hiaz....

It had been a rather long battle with my thoughts... but with some factors confirmed... i thought i could get into IBM easily.. but it turns out they wanted a 3 months contract... I only got 1 month left... then the other jobs... i think it's abit hard to get le... because i intend to go Sabah in mid August to complete my diving quest...
For 2 weeks... guess I'm only left with my old job... haha...

Oh well... also good lar.. no need to keep facing my 2 bosses double dragon me... keep pyscho-ing me ... it was hard to resist man... I'm too easily swayed... haha...

And so... I'm be carrying on.. ensuring for the last 2 weeks... and then i shall be gone... haha...

It's been some time since i went Sabah... haha...

Missing all the good food le... haha...

Oh well... tomorrow going for dog-walking.. got some spare time...

Actually it was a lied free day... i lied to get tomorrow off.... say i got interview... but actually i don't...
Well.. just want to rest man.. I've been working like a buffalo.... it's tiring....

Hmm.. that's all.. go sleep le..

In a big dil...emma...

I'm in a big big dilemma... big big big dilemma....

Haiz.... on one hand.. i want to leave my current job.. it's getting very tiring for me le... no fix hours of work... sometimes can't even have proper meals... everyday is like a rush... and after reaching home... I'm always burnt out... don't have the time to energy to do anything...

On the other hand... my 2 bosses keep pyscho-ing me to stay on... a fact here is that I'm quite a valuable assest to them... haha.. not that i want to brag... but i am one of the top instructors liao... 1 year's experience of coaching.... though not as much actually experience... and i have all the certification le.... haha...
And i am strong... can do alot of hard-work.... haha...

Which is also my curse... I'm being worked like a buffalo everyday... -_-".... water buffalo man.. have to tilt the land everyday.... not given much rest... Haiz...

A good news arrived today though.. i was informed that I've won something.. haha.... $100 worth of movie tickets... ^_^
It was from my lobang thingy mentioned previously....

Not bad.... at least earn back my investment le... haha...
Now i'm going to aim for other better stuffs.... haha...

One more thing... I just signed up for the Standard Charted... FULL marathon... again... ^_^

Slavery..... -_-"

Been so busy with work last week.... didn't have much time for myself.... especially yesterday.... i nearly became a slave.... a paid slave though.....


Haiz....

Worked from 0800hrs till 2200hrs yesterday... whole day.. practically non-stop... meals were just a grab and go....

Well... except for dinner... was treated by my boss... but after that have to carry on working...

Morning went to teach... then move stores... then teach... then move stores again....

Wow... i sometimes wonder how i managed to endure through it all... haha..

But well.. at least today there's no work... so i can rest all the way.. except got Japanese lessons later...

The day i became a part-time maid.... -_-"

Today had been a rather long day at work... started at 0815... all the way till 1915... doing stock taking... in a "storage-room".....

It was very mundane and boring... and the worst thing was i was left all alone to complete the job in the end... which was extremely sian....

Haiz..... man.... instructor also have to do stock-take meh....
No choice i guess... i evne doubled up as a part-time maid today... because the storage room was so dirty.. i was asked to also do a quick mop after I'm done with the stock take...

-_-"

Oh well... i guess it's a reality of the job scope nowadays... you must be prepared to do many things... even something as mundane as making coffee... or sweeping...

Just grousing around... actually the main issue was with the stock-taking... so long... then do alone... like not very right leh.... felt rather exploited.... although in a way... it is good for me... because i am earning every hour doing this mundane stuff... but it's not suitable for me because I'm not a mundane person....
And the frustration adds up from delays because i do not know what are the names of some parts... I mean... shouldn't i at least be aided by someone who knows these stuffs?
Then again... wouldn't' it be better to just get the person who knows all the stuffs?

Haiz.... this day made me even more keen on changing my job le... in fact... i may decided to push it earlier...

See how ba...

By the way.. finished watching "Claymore" le... but the last 11 episodes were just watching the animation... because they are only available in French sub... ????
Japanese animation... French sub ~~~~ not much of a link here....

But well... that's life... you don't always have a link...

And my handphone is getting lousier by the day... actually it's the batter... extremely shorten life-span... i am now charging my phone everyday... and the screw-up of the batter is also affecting the handphone itself....

Got to change handphone le... looking at one with keypad and touch screen... something of a PDA sort....
Hmmm... still looking around... go lobang can introduce to me... haha..

That's all....go rest le...

Baluku on head....

Thanks to the basketball session this morning... I'm having a baluku on my head... now....

A stranger opponent.... wearing something like a metal watch on his hand..not sure if it was a bracelet or what... hit down on my head with it while we were both trying to get the rebound.... it was rather painful....
And now i have a baluku.....

Baluku....baluku....baluku..... ばるく

Ouch... pain... think it is affecting my head....

But it was a satisfying match... haha... especially since i am wearing a new jersey... bought in KL... haha....

Just got a rather good lobang... trying it out first... haha... those interested in some good lobang can contact me on my msn... ^_^

End of にほんご Elementary 2

Today is the end of my Japanese Elementary 2 lessons... haha...

Just now still went for a celebration with my classmates... chill at Bugis area until 2300hrs plus...

Had dinner at Fish and Co... then my classmates keep bombarding me with food... haha... because they cannot finish...

It was fun though... because since the start of our E1.... we never really have a good chance to come together to talk adn chit chat... most of the time is finish lesson, then all go home le.... i guess today was more special in the sense that some of them are not continuing for E3 anymore... so it's kinda like the last day we will be seeing one another...

Well.. at least i am... going to complete till JLPT4.... haha...

After the E3.. it will be preparation for JLPT4 le.... by the end of this year...

They bought tickets to the "Dark Knight".. at 0030hrs... i didn't' join them... because its too late...

And so... i accompanied them at the arcade while they while they time away... waiting for the show...

It suddenly dawn upon me that ... i have not been to the arcade for such a long time... and the Bugis arcade had changed quite abit... alot of the machine for the basketball shoots were installed... maybe it's the new craze...

I went to check out "World Combat"... my ex-power game... haha.... i would dare say i am a mater of sort in it... haha.... hao lian abit here...
I stopped playing the game for quite some time.. because the guns were always faulty in alot of arcades... and i was kinda glad... when i look at other people playing it... the guns were finally repaired and working perfectly... maybe it's time for my awakening in the game.... Muahahaha...

But i didn't play the game.... because i was not with the right crowd...my classmates are all new to the game... a conclusion came about after i asked them about the game... and so it would eb unfair for me to hog onto all the life renewals... haha...

Oh well.. there'll be some other chance.... with the correct crowd... haha...

Hmmm... guess that's all.. tomorrow got basketball.... yep.... it's been a long time.... haha...

Back from KL....

Haha.... finally back from my Kuala Lumpur trip... since last Friday night...
Went on a big spending spree... haha.... enjoyed myself quite alot.... haha...

But tomorrow still got work.. sian....

Haha... oh well...

Updated later then...

A good Basketball session... and A Minus 1 gathering....

Today... I was out the whole day..... taking it as sort of a celebration for my BM pass... Haha....

In the morning went for basketball... was joined by HK... and supposedly Luis and Yan Li.... but well... the two... Hmmm... reached too late.... haha...

Anyway... i think i had quite a good session today... my shooting scores were amazingly very much higher.... I'm not sure why... maybe i was boost from the happiness that i passed my BM... and no need to waste anymore Friday nights.... haha....
Normally... i wouldn't score more then 2 shots per game.. haha...

Liked my last set of game... 2V3... quite a good play i would say.... haha....

After that went for lunch.. met up with Luis and Yan Li... then we went to HK's house to chill.... try on his new driving set-up... watch movies... went out to eat again.... come back watch movies again.... haha....
A small gathering... -1....

Talked about certain things... but well.... I guess not much can be done already... let the ship flow it's course bah....

To be honest though... haha.. I'm not that keen on the racing thing... maybe because I'm not that into racing... i mean... driving a real car is so much different... and well.... yar.... just not into it... haha.... seldom play games now also...

Chill all the way till 2000hrs plus.. then went home...

Luckily... i don't have work tomorrow... but still going places with my mum tomorrow....

So well... that's all then...

Finally.... Haha....

Finally.... the long awaited result.... It's been such a long time since i last felt so happy.... Wow.... haha....

Yep... the thing I've been learning for a year...all the Friday nights sacrificed.... kena conned and sucked out of quite abit of money....
Haha.... it's finally over.... I've passed my Bronze Medallion~~~ ^_^

Met all the timing... and the very... i would say special thing.. is that... I am the only one chosen to perform the "Initiative" segment... it's part of the test in which the tester will just throw any situation to us, and we have to react on the spot...
During my Life Saving 1,2 & 3 test... I was also the only one chosen for it....

Hmmm.. I wonder why do always get chosen.... do i look like I have alot of "Initiative"?

Haha... anyway... it doesn't matter.... I've passed the test... I am now a certified Life-Guard.... Muahahaha...

Thankfully though... our tester is rather lenient.. so it makes the whole thing easier... haha...

Wow...... still can't believe it....

And to think that i have such a busy day... in the morning went for work... woke up at 0600hrs... reach the school at 0700hrs... then worked all the way till 1430 hrs... no rest... Sian...
Supposed to play basketball after that... but because of the rain... and no confirmation given... I decided to go home... and rest for my test... haha...
Think it was a good decision afterall... because the test itself was abit physically demanding...

So yup..... BM... cleared... my Friday nights are clear now.... haha....

Got sucked.....

The above title doesn't refer to anything else.... it's just plain.... Money...

Just came back from what i hope is my last life-saving lesson... going to have the test tomorrow... but..... Haiz.... got sucked just now.... Sian...

What happened was that for the whole of last month.. i didn't want to go for the lessons anymore... because I've been going for so long... so I thought I'll skip the last month.. until the rest approaches...

Coincidentally... my instructor called me up last week... then say the test is this coming Saturday... so i thought... well... go for the last few lessons lor... And i thought since it is the last week of the month..maybe can skip the monthly fees....

Just now.. he collected the full monthly fee from me.. $40..... it's for 4 lessons... and i only attended one... -_-
Although he already told us that he will collect per on the monthly rates, regardless of attendance.... still.... it hurts to be sucked.... haha.... felt abit in-justified...
The only consolation is... i saved $3... on the swimming pool entrance fee... that instructor really cunning business man....

And so.... I paid up... but i also promised myself.. this is the last time i am paying him... I'm going to pass the test tomorrow... and never step in there.... haha.... no lar... the main thing is no need to pay him....
I've been taking his course for a year.... zhun zhun... think I've skipped at least 2 months... because he keeps on dragging the test for so long... it's crazy man... I've spent at least $400 on the whole test... i could get a diving certificate with this amount...
Even some people who came later than me... finished their test earlier than me... I'm like.. Why??? How???

Grumbles grumbles grumbles....

And it didn't help that i received an SMS from someone which i though was very no-brainer... I mean... why are you repeating what i just told you???
Really kinda no brainer.... and coming from that person.... Haiz.... well.. kinda expected...

Haiz... oh well... at least the test is finally here....

Tomorrow I'm going to be really busy... early morning go work.... will afternoon.. then after that go play basketball... then after that go for my test...

Busy busy day.... and I've yet to settle my circle of friend's issue.... hmmm... maybe next week ba...

That's all...

Busy Life.....

Well.... whole week of archery work... in fact... from next week on, it will e from Monday to Saturday le...

Although I'm only doing 3 hours most of the time per day (but on Tuesday i did 8 hours of work)... the timings are mostly in the afternoon... and as such... it seem like a whole day is taken... because i can't use the day as efficiently.. like got something in the middle... then cannot do anything else also...

Tomorrow I'm going down to old VS again.... haha...

Most of the time, I'm doing regular coaching for 3 schools now... for the whole of July... as per my agreement with my head coach... August I'm really going to find some higher pay job... sometimes though it's like i felt that i have obligation to help him with the projects... because he has invested alot of money sending me for courses... though the courses are for the purposes of the archery work... but still... oh well....

At times though... i feel like I'm not doing justice to myself.... I mean... any other administrative job outside... going by the hours... will definitely give me a much higher pay... although the hours are longer....it's a much less labourious job... and it's like a same whole day is wasted... so might as well waste it more productively... with more money....
It is afterall a very real world.... Money $$$ makes the world go round~~~

I'm still not promoted to senior coach.... hmm.... that would raise my per hour rates... and perharps it would have done more justice...

Haiz... sometimes i agree to things without thinking thoroughly through.... oh well... so i guess have to just stick to it lor... promise le.... although abit reluctantly....

Getting more used to coaching CCAs now.. after some extra lessons.... more confident... haha.... so i guess it's not a bad thing afterall....

Hmmm.... i guess that's all... yup.... busy busy...

On a side note here.... hmm.... certain issues have happened among my friends... it led to a rather sad ending... not really sure how.... but i'll try to see if i can help to mend the hole in the wall...

Afterall... we've been friends for so long.... there should be a way around it... I'll try my best...

Victoria Thy Sons Are We.... and we will not forget....
