life ticks by~

Tuesday's ENR training was mere biceps and deltoids training...
I was only able to hold 1-2 mugs of ale... unlike the uncles, could probably do at least 5!
Charity spirit was really observed! Upon payment, we got a goodie bag with a power bar and a powergel... YUM!
Of course, thats not dinner!
We were all given a neon band, for the food transitions...
It was a buffet spread with nicely mashed potatoes, tasteful chicken and chilli sausages, ribs and BBQ chicken... accompanied with fresh greens.
Only one serving and a mug makes us pretty much done. BURP!!!
Best part of the charity was the auction... Eye candy to see bikes like the carbon soloist and P3C with HED trispoke.
In layman, these bikes are raced by top athletes and cost > 10k...
I would love to get my hands on them!
Although having the opportunity and chance to bid by waving my flag number(29), I didn't. I probably have to work at a gay bar for months before I can pay the debt off!

The event was little much less of spectacular. Having a chance to see uncles and trigeeks in Shirts and pants is really an eye opener. Well, you normally see them in jerseys and tights, or one piece trisuit. omG! COOl STUUF!
Wednesday, I decided to clear some mess left by me 7 years ago... Here is what I found!
I found this ambition chart I made during my sec 1 days...
1st choice - I wanna be a policeman
2nd choice - I wanna be a computer Engineer
3rd choice - I wanna be a pilot

Well it seems that 1st choice was valid then because I thought handling a revolver was cool!
Until you get into army, you carried rifles and pistols until you SIEN!!! ok~ 1st choice was condemned..
2nd choice I am probably there? Diploma in multimedia infocomm tech... well~~ I think ill probably can decided that as a career too?
No bull man~ but 3rd choice is what I really want.. After the disappointed in Youth flying club, I really wanna make up for it.

I salvage the picture out of the ambition chart.











Thursday, I am not really patient with slow computers... And I disliked when much of the time, my hard disk drive in my laptop is buzzing for data to be crunched. Every second of noise emited causes agitation.
After doing some research online, I set my sights on seagate's momentus.. 5400.3, cheap and good drive that comes with a 5 yrs warranty and 3 yrs 1-1 exchange!
Not only that! 5400.3 comes with the latest PMR (parallel recording feature)...
5400.2 doesn't! becareful if you buy!

What more can you ask for!!
It's now in my laptop running fast and fine! =)
I have some pictures of the internals of my acer lappy~
found it rather interesting it has alot of copper and alu sinks on the GPU and chipsets!
The shine given out by the metals has alot to say about acer's quality!
not bad =)

BACK FROM A LONG LONG NO BLOGGING STAGE!

Hey handsomes and pretties, i have not been post anything for quite sometime!
I am officially out of job! Thats why i can do this a monday afternoon!

I said I was going to post something of the tahan trip, and lots more! Well, it's abit of a history now. Main highlight was that we the group of 14 was hit by lightning on high ground... 2000+ metres... The feeling was sensational and never felt before. Numbness tensed into every single nerves immobilising the limbs. Our dear Ismail got the greatest of god's "blessing"; his heartbeat stopped. He was lucky to have zhenghan, hailed at the"saviour". Zhenghan did his first actual CPR on ismail and thank god it worked!
The things you are reading here are real life accounts... I am sure some of you will find this a joke or amusing... But at that point of time, it wasn't.

Other interesting events was:
Flashfloods
Heavy river currents(nearly swept me away)
Lots of leeches

wow experience sia... ill give it 5 out of 5 if you want to have an adventure of a lifetime... Everyday, you will have something "interesting" to look forward to!
Untouched beauty, this place is fascinating scenic. And you get to see something new everyday!!

Pace of life at our destination(after 7 days), Kuala tahan is slow (DAMN SLOW)... Meals takes ages to prepare, everything around just kicks down a gear and I love this stress busting feeling. We stayed overnight at this kampong hut made out of simple materials(zinc, wood, false walls) and a little bit of cement, it's a wonderful experience. Looking out the window gives you a great view of the river which once flow as rapids, upstream and highlands surrounds it's malaysia at it's best.

Don't be put off by my lightning experience, gunung tahan gives a great mountain climbing experience, i recommend yall to try it(may be the 4 days itenary)...

This line is for the appreciation of people who saved me life and their enjoyable crappiness through the 7 days of no hardship. Thank you! =) to 15 great people including 2 guides... *SALUTE*

SNAP BACK TO REALITY! *SNAP*

There are some events I am really interested in completing very much.

Desaru half ironman is something very interesting! (ill probably die in the swim stage, HEHEHE) I ain't a fish, need to train hard! Mizuno wave run is happening this coming sunday... had 2 weeks to train. At the current physical condition, I am pretty happy with the tight schedule so far! All thanks to the motivational uncles and younger ones in TriFam. I look up to them for training discipline.

Met my army pals some days ago, buddy marcus actually remembered our honeymoon to europe! I am so glad he is starting studies soon! and that will give him student rebates in that continent. Planning a backpacking trip to the west after 2nd sem of year 2. Sad thing about the trip is, I will have to scrimp and save every dollars from now on. I want to have at least 10k SGD for the trip... hard earned! At least what is free now are travel guides. heh~ Came back from the library just hours ago with all these nice guides!... Will burnt and memorize every important detail and generate a trip itenary for about 1.5 months... yay~~!

ThANKKS for reaDING stay cool, school is reopening! can't wait to dwell into books and friends and fun again!

To all my dear frenz.... Enjoy life to the fullest, life is short! =))
