30th Dec

It's 2 more days to the new yr.. It's at this point of the year where I start to reflect and react and resolute.. Hm.. What have I achieved 2009?

Decided to be back into the swimming "scene".. Not competition. lah. Took life saving 1-3 and Bronze Medallion. Started coaching too..

Changed job in this economic turbulent year. The most amazing thing is it happened when I have accepted fate and decided to stay. Ironic.. =( 命运作弄人吧。

Took my advance diving with WY. Challenging cos the last time i dived was 2 yrs ago when I took my basic diving. But it was nontheless fun with WY and other young ppl.. Yesh.. i'm old..

Managed to continue tuitioning..

Finished a book in a wk..

Went Phuket with BFFs.. Our next trip after our Aussie trip 2 yrs ago.. Even though it was a short trip, but it was something I cherish and will remember.. Appreciate the time spent together, played tennis, snorkel, cam whore, eat, sleep etc..

Went on Biz trip for stockcount to shenzhen.. En route to HK..Luvz though I cant sleep.. haha..

What an eventful year...
Disasters tt happened in 2009:
88 水灾 - 台湾

Leyman Brother collapsed, marked the start of the worse economic recession in the greatest economy - USA. GE, Ford failing.. US Govt using dunno how many zillions of dollars to save AIG and Citi..

H1N1 disease - Though it's not as severe as SARS, but it's fatal.

I will continue to add on if i recall any other events.

Now, I am grateful that:

- I have food on the table
- I have a job
- I am healthy
- I can swim, run and play
- I have my loved ones
- I am breathing

There were many people who have faced many adversities in their lives.
They worked so hard, much much harder than me, just to have food to fill. Not to say good food.
Some do not have a shelter over their head and were thankful that they have a place to sleep.
Some went through excruciating pain and agony just to see the next day light.
They were all happy that their fundamental needs were met. Y are we overthinking on our goals, dreams and wishes? If only ..... How nice if...

Since we are so much more fortunate than others, why not give them some. It doesnt need to come in terms of monetary. It can be a smile, ur listen ear, helping hand, a Thank You!, etc. It may seem insignificant for the person who give, but it means alot to the receiver.

Have you come across a time when someone accompanied you when you were feeling down. But he/she was by ur side to tide u thru the down moments and help u to see light. You were so grateful for her help. But the person might not think that she has done alot of you. She jus spent time with u.. Imagine someone tells u tt what u hav done has a huge impact on her and how it has helped her.

施比受更幸福

I have finished reading "My sister's keeper". Thoughts triggering abt life.

Read through my behaviour profiling.. My profile is a counsellor.. Want happiness and peace. Team player and influencing.. etc.. will elaborate in my next entry..

Thankful for everything tt I have! =)

Some interesting Shit Stories tt I came across

A little bird was flying south for the winter. It was so cold, the bird froze and fell to the ground in a large field. While it was lying there, a cow came by and dropped some dung on it. As the frozen bird lay there in the pile of cow dung, it began to realize how warm it was. The dung was actually thawing him out! Soon, a farmer passed by and heard the little bird chirping. Seeing the poor creature covered with dung, he decided to help the bird get out of the mess and placed it under a shrub. By this time, the bird was feeling warm and chirpy. and A cat passing by heard the sounds, saw the bird and ate it up.

Morals of the story?
1) Not everyone who drops shit on you is your enemy.
2) Not everyone who gets you out of shit is your friend.
3) When you’re in deep shit, it might be better just to keep your mouth shut.

A turkey was chatting with a bull. “I would love to be able to get to the top of that tree,” sighed the turkey, “but I haven’t got the energy.” “Well, why don’t you nibble on some of my droppings?” replied the bull. “They’re packed with nutrients.” The turkey pecked at a lump of dung and found that it actually gave him enough strength to reach the first branch of the tree. The next day, after eating some more dung, he reached the second branch. Finally after a fourth night, there he was proudly perched at the top of the tree. Soon he was promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot the turkey out of the tree.

The moral of the story?
Bullshit might get you to the top, but it won’t keep you there.

A crow was sitting on a tree, doing nothing all day. A small rabbit saw the crow, and asked him, “Can I also sit like you and do nothing all day long?” The crow answered: “Sure, why not.” So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the crow, and rested. All of a sudden, a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit and ate it.

The moral of the story?
To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high up.

A priest was driving along and saw a nun on the side of the road, he stopped and offered her a lift which she gladly accepted. She got in and Crossed her legs, forcing her gown to open and reveal a lovely leg. The priest had a look and nearly had an accident. After controlling the car, he stealthily slid his hand up her leg. The nun looked at him and immediately said, “Father, remember psalm 129?” The priest was flustered and apologized profusely. He forced himself to remove his hand. However, he was unable to remove his eyes from her leg. Further on, while changing gear, he let his hand slide up leg again. The nun once again said, “Father, remember psalm 129?” Once again the priest apologized. “Sorry sister, but the mind is weak.” Arriving at the convent, the nun got out, gave him a meaningful glance and went on her way. On his arrival at the church, the priest rushed to retrieve a bible and looked up psalm129. It said, “Go forth and seek; further up, and you will find glory.”

The moral of the story?
Always be well informed in your job; Or you might miss a great opportunity.

24-26Dec 2009

24(Thur): Worked half day. Yeah.. But didnt achieve anything tt day. Went JP to buy pasta, sauce and some other ingredients for xmas dinner at B's hse on 25th. Went for dinner with family at Pioneer Wharf in JP.. Nvr even count down... Was still watching Hot Shot when the clock struck 12.
25 (Fri): Finally I have the chance to sleep in!!! yeah.. undisturb sleep till11 plus.. Shiok.. Had breakfast with parents in JP. We walked and shop around b4 heading back home.. Slept a while, then did housework.. Then started to prepare the pasta.. I cooked too much pasta.. haha.. i thought 1 pack feeds abt 3 ppl.. Since there's 6, so 2 packs loh.. After cooking the pasta, they turned out to fill 2 large trays.. Can feed 10 ppl.. haha.. then I used half of the pasta.. It's challenging to stir fry the load of pasta in the wok.... Muscles were involved in cooking too.. It's damn heavy to carry the pasta to 's hse.. Luckily she stays just1 st away.. We stuffed ourselves silly with all the food.. HH's chicked wings and drumlets were nice.. the use of a special cooker. B's spring roll and wedges were nice too.. So were the others.. There were wastages too.. haha.. Played Wii, dog and bone and asshole dai dee... Left around 1120.. Went home to watch 绝对男友。。。Knight is so shuave.. Watched till 130am but the show did not end.. I cant take it already.. so had to sleep cos i need to wake up at 7 for lesson.. Pui.. I dono the ending for tt show.. going to youtube to find the answer..
26 (Sat): Quite a shitty day for me.. Abt coaching.. Lazy to type..

Loved this song in 绝对男友.. But I dono the name of this song..


Some phases from "Me Sister's Keeper"
"Pandora was given a box that she was forbidden to open. Pandora's curiousity got the better of her. Out came plagues and misery and mischief. She managed to shut the lid tight before hope escaped. It's the only weapon we have left to fight others".

Looking forward to yr end count down at B's hse.. I'm not a nerd..

Back to work

Went back to work with so many things to do.. year end closing stuff.. so sian..

Random.. Was searching at youtube for Yoga Lin.. This is the first time i have seen the compilation of all his popular songs during his competition..



Like another song from Yoga's latest album: 耳朵 - 林宥嘉


Lyrics

林宥嘉 - 耳朵
作曲：陈小霞 作词：姚若龙

太亲密的关系 像不像海底
看着温柔的草 美丽的鱼
屏息太久 一瞬间快不能呼吸
秘密會不會是某种氧气
有没有一种孤僻能被允许
当着最爱的人 面无表情
躲在自己的世界 混乱或战栗
就是单纯的不想被干预
翻完我的简讯 我的信
能不能 顺便翻翻我的心情
我们有个件不同的心灵
所以有动线不同的情绪
当爱情只剩嘴巴 少了耳朵
就变得你只相信你猜测的
当感应在你我之间 不再流动
该怎么说 没死不代表活着
当爱情只剩眼睛 少了耳朵
就变得你只看到你怕看的
我努力越解释 你越流泪激动
但有些事不仔细听 不会懂
翻完我的简讯 我的信
能不能 顺便翻翻我的心情
我们有个件不同的心灵
所以有动线不同的情绪
当爱情只剩嘴巴 少了耳朵
就变得你只相信你猜测的
当感应在你我之间 不再流动
该怎么说 没死不代表活着
当爱情只剩眼睛 少了耳朵
就变得你只看到你怕看的
我努力越解释 你越流泪激动
但有些事不仔细听 不会懂

Sometimes it's not enough to just rely on 1 of ur senses. Wat u see might not be wat it is, wat u feel might not be reliable, Wat u hear is not true..

So difficult..

林宥嘉 說謊

喜欢这首歌=）



人在一生中说了几次谎？
谎言伤人还是助人？
你相信白色谎言吗？
请不要说都是为我好
我有能力辨别是非黑白

歌词
林宥嘉-说谎

是有过几个不错对象
说起来并不寂寞孤单
可能我浪荡让人家不安
才会结果都指望

我没有什么阴影魔障
你千万不要放在心上
我又不脆弱何况
那算什么伤反正爱情
不就都这样

我没有说谎
我何必说谎
你懂我的我
对你从来就不会假装

我哪有说谎请
别以为你有多难忘
消失真的不是我逞强

我好久没来这间餐厅
没想到已经换了装潢
角落那窗口闻的到玫瑰花香
被你一说是有些印象

我没有说谎
我何必说谎
你知道的我缺点之一就是很健忘
我哪有说谎
是很感谢今晚的相伴
但我竟然有些不习惯

我没有说谎
我何必说谎爱
一个人没爱到难道就会怎么样
别说我说谎
人生已经如此的艰难
有些事情就不要拆穿

我没有说谎
是爱情说谎
它带你来骗我说可我没有可能有希望
我没有说谎

祝你做个幸福的新娘
我的心事请你全遗忘

23 Nov to 28 Nov

Wkdays are as usual..

Went out with MOrax ppl on thurs nite, met at Brotzeit at Raffles City.. It's a German resturant.. Dun really like the roast pork tt I had.. the meat is tough.. Had mango beer.. it's nice =)



Then we had ice cream at some resturant at Raffles City cos Brotz is getting hot and stuffy.. Then homed..

Fri is Hari Raya!! Yeappie.. It's a hol.. Went to ZW hse with B and we cooked Pasta, Sausages and Cambell shop for lunch.. then we went Bugis to meet HH and S to go MINDS Cafe... Was quite fun.. =) the farniest was a game similar to dog and bone.. =)

Then we went Clarke Quay and ate Waraku for dinner.. Super full.. I had the squid sauce spag (Gratin set).. Not bad =)

To end the day, we went drinking at a drinking place with KTV.. I dun think I drink alot leh, I puked when we leave the place.. =( Either ageing is catching up or I need to dance off the alcohol.. Feeling bad after tt le.. Bath and went to bed and praying tt I dont puke.. Slept at 2am like tt.. Feeling damn sian cos i need to wake up at 7am to teach swimming.. =(

Woke up at 7am... was impressed by myself as I could wake up at 7... It's a long journey to Sports sch.. =( Reached at 830, went to LS cos I think my stomach was not feeling well after the puking last nite.. Ample time to finish the big business and change.. Find Uncle Chong then started lesson.. the water is super duper cold.. =((((( I only had 1 student for every lesson.. good and bad lah.. but i was like a lone ranger.. nvr tok to anyone.. we had 20 mins of break after 2 lessons. I filled my bottle and sat alone at the bench for the time to pass.. sounds emo.. haha.. but i jus feel out of place there.. then everyone looks busy with their own stuff... Heck lah. i think I will only teach till dec as i have promised.. I dislike travelling early in the morning and the journey is long lone lame.. Homed and ba bao lunch and ate at home.. slept from 4pm to 630pm..

努力

21 Nov: Met the gals at Hol V for pizza and ice cream at daily scoops.. It's nice =) We had waffle and brownie with 2 ice creams on each item. Notbad.. =)


I tried to put on my fake eye lashes with shu's glue.. It's quite good as my eye lashes stayed for quite long..

I have decided to teach at Speedi on Sat (9 to 1pm) starting next sat.. Even though it's far and pay is lower.. i decided to try cos i wanted to expose myself to diff swim sch's culture and operation.. hope it's a good choice..

I'm totally addicted to 学警出更 和 蓝球火。。。Wu Zuo Xi and Yan Chen Xu is so shuai!

From the show I have learnt tt there will sure be downs in ur life, things dont go ur way, doubting ur ability and failures. But it's the way u face the obstacles tt makes u diferent from others.. i look back and reflected.. I feel that I'm a quitor.. I tried to avoid things I dislike, running away from them.. Till now, even though I had been working for some time, I'm also trying to avoid somethings. I feel I have to face it head on to learn to overcome it, otherwise I will be avoiding it forever. I had so much to learn , I'm not as gd as I thought..

I need to give myself more confidence. To push myself harder..

我要做一只打不死的蟑螂

我买了，你呢？

从星光一到五，能让我有想看下去的欲望只有这两位。。
林宥嘉（星光一）和 倪安東（星光五）。杨宗伟和萧敬藤也非常优秀。。 但是我还是比较喜欢宥嘉和安東的声线。。 有让人看到他们用声音绘画的情景。。 让人着迷。。

孤单傻（Sa）妹

感觉好像有点寂寞。。 工作的地方没朋友，只能算得上是同事。。
我的朋友跑到哪里去了。。 他们都到了总站，下了我这辆火车了吗？
平日的色彩都褪色，失去了昔日的光芒？
是没电了，还是已经不再精彩，乘客多陆陆续续下车，自求各自的精彩？

有得必有失。。 我并没有找到真正的幸福。。

真的是孤单傻（Sa）妹。。

25th Sept -27th Sept - Advance Diving

WY and I went to Dayang for our Advance Diving.. Dive site is Dayang once again.. I hope we could go to Tioman, since I have nvr been there.. but anyways, it's good to be back there again..



The resort didnt change at all after 3 yrs.. But the sand got eroded by the sea.. there was a place where we could play volleyball and now it's gone...



We left the dive sch at 8pm.. took approx 4 hrs of bus ride and 3 hrs of ferry to get there.. The bus we took this time is more luxurious and spacious. Got to sleep on the ferry too as I took the motion sickness pill.. Wonderful.. =) I woke up only when we have reached..



Cont to sleep when we reach there at 430am.. woke up at 830 for breakie and start our first dive.. We had to do the pivot and hovering.. i struggled on my first dive cos i was very unfamiliar with th equipments and environment.. had a little trouble equalizing initially... the first dive site was not very nice too..



Second dive was navigation. need to swim with the compass and get back to the same location... nothing special too..



Then we had some theory lessons while the open waters ppl went for their 3rd dive..



We went for the night dive at around 7pm.. Armed with the giant torch we are ready to wave our laser beams.. was total pitch dark down under.. visibility was prob 1m?? I already had trouble finding WY during the day, so i had to hold on to her hand thru out the dive.. hm.. saw lots of sea urchin and some corals tt resembles lion fish.. Our instructor attempted to ask everyone to put their torch against their body to see the planktons.. but some ppl dun understd.. so we didnt manage to see it.. when we surfaced, I saw the most beautiful sky, fully littered by stars... "Fly me to the moon, and take me straight up upon te stars".... laalallala



Went back and wash up and had dinner..



Woke up at 630 for our last 2 dives.. The first one is the deep dive.. Going to dive to 30m.. Stayed only for a while and we went up to 15m to see the most beautiful sea i have ever seen.. there were a super big sch of baracudas (all facing one direction like an army), schools of little colourful fishes, alot of colourful corals with clown fishes, ugly mory eel hiding under the big rock etc.. but we didnt see the frog fish (fish with legs).. interesting hor.. =(



The last dive is wreck dive.. Didnt see the wreck.. =( saw some fishes but not as impressive as the first..the sea was really choppy...



We dived around 50mins each time.. so shiok. =) I remembered when we did open waters,we dive only abt 30mins..



I had better grasp in controlling my buoyancy by breathing.. able to stay at the same lvl without kicking.. i definitely kicked less and managed to go real close to the corals without hurting myself, even though i hurt my leg at the first 2 dives.. But i dun envision myself to be an avid diver.. can prob go once a yr tt kind, cos it's really bad for the skin and hair.. it's better to swim..
Our instructor in Orange tee.. She's a great instructor, taught us logic which is very practical.. =) She's from Swiss and she lives on Tioman.. I cant live on any Island.. I will be bored to death man..

The most eventful wk:15 Sept 2009 to 22 Sept 2009

I must say this is the most eventful and tiring week for me... I had something on every day and nite...

14 Sept Monday: I went swim training with ZW and WJ @ JW swimming complex.. Had trouble sleeping tt nite...

15 Tuesday: Tuition

16 Wednesday: Rest day

17 Thursday:

Went to JW Gym with AW and ZW.. I only ran on the treadmill, lift abit of weights and situp... Then we adjouned to MAC to eat fries.. We went back home for dinner..

18th Friday

ZW,YP, E and I went to Hip Hop and Salsa Dance Workshop held at esplanade.. I still prefer Hip Hop... I cant seem to have the feel dancing salsa.. I only enjoyed doing the body wave.. the only thing that I managed to master.. Reached home at 1130.. then prayed with dad for the last day of the 7th mth... slept at 130am..

19th Sat: Had to wake up at 645 for the Changi Beach clean up.. Suppose to meet my colleague at bt batok at 715... BUT I OVERSLEPT.. this is the first time i overslept.. i dunno y my alarm clock didnt ring.. luckily i left my HP on.. then i jumped out of bed when i hear my phone rang... I KNEW i'm soooo dead... then she was very nice.. she came to JP to pick me up..

The we went all the way to changi beach for the clean up.. it was pretty easy.. we only picked litters for 1.5hrs.. then had buffet lunch.. =) Today, i got to know tat we get half day off for volunteering for it =) sweet.. so nice =)

20th Sun

Today is our last day teaching swimming at FWCC... ZW had the life saving test after his morning lesson.. We bought MAC back to eat.. Then we went down into the pool to play on the bedding.. tried to push each other down (super rough), tried to stand which we failed terribly.. panda is super farnie.. she was trying to stand up and one of her foot stepped out of the bedding and she fell.... =) I will miss swimming and teaching, but i will miss the ppl even more..... Then we went for dinner as usual, but this time w/o ZW cos he had to go for his sis's hse warming.. We went for dessert after tt..

21 Monday

YES!! It's a public holiday.. Hari Raya.. I woke up at 10 to vacuum and mop the floor.. then we to Jurong Safra for KTV for YEC ppl.. We went for K lunch and sang till 230pm.. Everyone can sing quite well.. =)

After tt, we went to JP's Starbucks for drinks and celebrated WL's Bdae..

Went home to bath and dress up for Huiqin's and Kenneth's wedding dinner. It's a mini sec 4 class gathering too.. But i didnt meet them on fri for dinner and drinks cos i had the dance wkshop and had to wake up really early on sat...

They r really the fairytale tt came true.. they were both first and were together ever after... now happily married.. =) After the dinner, we went to drink at Coffee club.. Then reached home around 2am.. had trouble sleeping again.. feel like killing myself.. slept aroun 5am..

Nearly died at work..

22 Tuesday:

Had dinner with Torpedo at Sakura at Far East.. This is sort of a farewell dinner as well as for ZW who's going to enter NS soon...

Our super super big family...

我们四剑客很快要少一个了。。。 会不习惯。。。。。

We went to a pub at Tanglin shopping centre to have drinks.. they were all trying to make ZW drunk.. Luckily he didnt puke.. Reached home at 215am.. slept at 245.. concuss.. took less than 5mins to fall asleep.. i'm feeling so tired again today at work.. =(

一切将画下完美的据点。虽然万分的不舍，可是一切在最完美的景象中画下绣字符。。

我们4“贱”客一定会再见江湖的！！

寻找

可以让我感到温暖的光芒，吸引我靠近它，沈醉其中
口服心服的美好
可说是一个没有碰触过的境界
乐在其中， 我要一直这样幸福的存在着

我终于找到了！

The Frontier BGM - 13th Sept Sunday

The Frontier CC YEC BGM

Our BGM is finally over.. We had our BGM at our CC and we had MINDS Cafe to bring their board games down and to teach everyone how to play the games.. Thx WY and YQ came and support the BGM.. =) Was fun but many ppl left after our BGM.. =( Mainly children stayed on to play the games. We had some new members with us this term... And it will be another good 2 years for us..

加油

The photographer is super good in taking jumping shots.. =) This one i feel is the best cos everyone is in the air.. but Syah's face is covered...

We met on the 12th to pack goodie bags...

1st to 13th Sept

Yeah.. I started work at my new workplace..
I took some time to accustom to the new place.. new faces, simple temporary workplace, alot to learn and I tried to ask alot of questions.. haha.. I jus wanted to start rite and learn as much as possible.. But I feel I might be giving myself alot of stress.. but bo bian.. I'm the only non mger they have hired so far.. I must prove my worth...
I felt super tired after work every day.. My little brain is cramped with alot of info and "how to do".

But I slowly accustomed to the workplace.. And I fell in love with their culture.. =) Everyone is helpful and smiley.. There's no downloading or "I'm not responsible for this so I dun know". They tried to help evn though is not their responsibility. So it's really a good place to work in =)

First wk was mainly orientation and having sessions with my mger and director to understd more abt the co.
I'm on my own the 2nd wk cos my mger was on leave. But she gave me some tasks to complete for tt wk.. Abit stress cos i dunno how to do.. But I still survived.. haha..

Hopefully this IS the ONE..

"Open up, open up some happiness"

Happi Happi

Phuket Trip Day 3 & 4

Finally I'm back to continue to blog on Phuket trip.. The last 2 days of our good trip =)

Today, we are going Phi Phi Island for Island hopping.. Getting ready for the day =)

At the jetty, waiting to board the speed boat to Phi Island =)

On the Boat

We have reached the first bay of Phi Phi Island... The beach was super crowded.. so commercialised.. But the sea is still blue, the sky is blue too.. haha.. This is the island where Leonardo filmed a moive.. hm.. forgot the name of moive... can someone pls tell me the name of the movie in my chatbox? thx..
We didnt had alot of time on the beach.. appro 45 mins... we jus took a few photos, then went the toilet.. went back to the speed boat.. The next destination was the snorkelling spot.. not bad.. =) the current was milder than the place we went on day 2.. then we saw alot of fishes too..
That was the time when I realised that sea water is SUPER salty.. peng.. i drank a couple of mouthful of seawater and felt super thirsty.. no pic on it cos we were all gettin ready to SWIM.. After snorkelling, we went to Monkey bay to feed monkeys. Though I didnt feed, I jus watched loh..the monkeys were reay small esp the little ones.. so innocent and cute.. hehe my descendents.. Then we went to another place for lunch..

Groupie..

This was the place of our Island hopping day.. so we camwhore to the max..
Hm.. no photos for the dinner tonite.. hm.. i tink we didnt wear very nice for the day.. felt really tired le. then the performance for tt nite was some farnie storyline where I felt asleep after 15mins into the performance. They also had the cobraman to perf which I totally missed. Then we went for drinks.. I dunno y i felt so tired after drinking red wine. the place where we sat was quite comfy too.. i cont t sleep.. hahahha.. So tt marks the day of ou 3rd and last nite..

It's Day 4 already.. the last day of the trip... We went for a swim in the morning.. went back to wash up and pack up..

After we have check out, we went for mani/ pedi/massage and hair braiding.. I did, pedi and hair braiding, XQ and PZ did mani,pedi and massage, LD did all of XQ + hair treatment. We even speculated that LD might come out of the room in gown, pampered like a princess.. hehe

We were late for the airport tsfr.. as usual..

This marks the end of our relaxing beach trip.. =)

Flight: Tiger

Thx to XQ tt we can go to CM on a cheap price.. =)

Touched down at Phuket Airport. We have a GO to greet us..

At Club Med's Lobby

We headed to the pool for water aerobics followed by pool games. The old Ang Moh Uncle is super rough. Pushed and snatched the balls from ppl one.. Dun like them. After which, we prceed to the dining area for a sumptious lunch with lots and lots of food selection. Abit overwhelming on the first day. But it gets better as the day pass as I know which section to head for the food.. =)

Then we went to walk around Club Med.. Went to the Mini Club, golf and tennis area to see see.. We head to the Kata Beach first for a longest ever Cam Whore.. I nvr get sick of it.. haha Here are some photos.. cos most of it has been upload to face book.. very time consuming to upload here..

Groupie..

I like this pic of my Back!

After cam whoring for 2 hrs, went to the trapeze area. Cos i wan to hav a go on it. =) But we were too late. Only had the chance to go on the practise bar..

We went to play tennis from 6 to 730pm.. Fun le.. First time i played with all 3 of them.. =)

Went back to wash up for dinner.. Theme is all white.. But we nvr prepare for this theme, so we wore white top with skirt.. =)

Dinner was also a big affair.. with lots of food to choose from.. haha.. I think i put on weight after this trip..

Went to the stage area to watch performance.. Was quite a nice performance cos there's this girl (whom i think is chio, not totally due to her looks but her aura.. Cos i like atheletic gals and gals with strong personality) who performed stunts with a long stretch of cloth. Super cool..

Then we proceed to the bar area for drinks.. Met this crazy guy called Andre.. He kept teasing XQ..

Here he is.. haha

~Cheers.. For friendship~

Felt tired after drinking.. Had a good nite rest =)
