As my mom told me on Monday that my neighbour's hubby passed away in his sleep. Sad... This show how fragile human life is. Never know when 'he' will take you away.... Things left unsaid.... Things left undone.... He left behind 3 children and his wife.... Maybe tomorrow is my turn. Haiz....
Just received the new of my friend's younger brother committed suicide. Passed away last week. I knew him briefly, he was a bright chap, always held his elder brother as an example. My friend didn't even know what lead to his suicide actions.... Things left unsaid again..... Things left unexplained.... Haiz....
Friends are supposed to keep in contacts.... Maybe due to work, or some other reasons we might be have forgotten each other presence but i think to forcefully cut off all contact from someone..... I have nothing to say but just to feel pity..... Things left unexplained....
A few pieces of news a received for the past few days.... it sadden me..... However, my life still goes on...... hhhmmm.... hopefully tomorrow will receive some news to brighten my day.....
After 2 weeks not at work.... sure feel different. I'm all ready to work again..... Can use my newly acquired knowledge at work, no longer feel helpless at certain situations.
Ended my lesson early on Friday and came home and give my car a wash..... It sure looked dirty after 2 weeks with all the water stains filled with dust.... I was in a mood for anything, in the end, stay home watch tv.
Waked up at 8 on a Sat morning, don't why also, maybe for past 2 weeks, have been waking up since 7.30, body must have accustomed to the timing. Met up with an old friend of mine and went down to Marina South for VOGS meet up. Didn't knew that he drove a VIOS, same colour as mine, but looked more 'tiong' than mine. Took some pictures during the event. Will be posted up shortly. At night, went to watch Initial D with Priscilla. Nice drifting skills..., but the storyline and the characters was abit twisted, didn't followed closely with the anime and manga. Some parts of the movie was really funny but i still prefer the anime and manga.... As the gang was at Winebar, went there with Priscilla to join them for a drink. After winebar, it was number ball again.
Sunday, long time haven't had dinner at home. Enjoyed so much from the food, made me realised that i have not been having dinner at home on Sunday. My nephews and niece happened to be at my house today, asked me so many questions about this thing, that thing.... but i had fun with them, at least they don't wear any masks at this stage in life. Sometime they just get on my nerves.... but then again, children will be children.... Caught a while of Spiderman, before heading down to Wala Wala at Holland Village to get interrogated by the gang. :P haha... not much of an interrogation, they just curious about my recent events... :P :)
Haiz, my neighbours are fighting again....... think i should go sleep now, the beer is making me sleepy..... ZZZZZzzzzzz.........
Sometime i just don't get it..... Sometime people just think so highly of themselves....... If not, people who like to talk big.... Can do this... can do that.... Ha!!!... amazing.... Best of all, those who think they know everything.... jeez... i just wondered when will they get their facts right..... Worse..... sometime they never will.....
anyway doesn't bother me... i just can't be bothered....
There have been discussions about going on a holiday again this year. Last year Bangcock trip was the event of the year, Hollywood was great, Club 9003 was even better. The event i guess would be still fresh in the minds of many. :P
Suggestion made by some of us : HongKong? Bangkok again? Korea? Taiwan? Europe? even the US were suggested.....
I guess i'll opt out of this year holiday trip, I just spent a few thousands on my course, therefore, I will give this year a miss. Hopefully, God take pity on me and give me a chance to strike 4D during every wed, sat and sun. :P den I would give it a thought.
Read about my friend : Kev commenting on my ride... well I dun like to endanger the lifes of other road users, especially my passengers, or maybe i treasure my driving licence. Beside, VIOS drivers have been making a name for themselves. In fact, quite a 'good name' too: tearing up ppls like papers and like Mr Kev's Bengy; eating other for breakfast...... :P
Anyway, I'm not always in a hurry, even if i am, i would driving around the acceptable speed. Or maybe my ride is just a piece of scrap metal with 4 wheels, worse than any cibics, bengy , lancer cedia - 350Z conversion.
Petrol prices just increased by another 9cents. Good news? Bad news? Good news to some, bad news to others.
Something has pre-occupied my mind lately. Something that I think it is not right from my point of view. Something that goes against my rule of principles.
Damn... Not at this point of time, when i'm really enjoying myself..... Anyway my parents have grumbled at me for the frequent late nights. I have expected them to say something soon. Time for me to be a good boy again. :P
Edited: Please Do Not Be Like That Cock (DAVID) Making Up His Own Assumptions. Nothing To Do With My Colleague!!!
HockLee Garage's latest member......... + Muscle is Back in SG
Accompanied Hanny and his colleagues to Parkway to book his YELLOW KIA PICANTO!!!.... Haha. Yes, Seth Ong is now a proud owner of a PICANTO. eh, i forgot he still yet to secure his COE. :P I shall correct myself, potential owner.
Hanny : I forget to tell you, my loan interest rates is 0.05% per day. :P :P So 2K for 10days, on the 11th day, that would be (2K * 0.05%) * 10. :P :P hahaha.
hahaha,.... met up with a few old poly schoolmates at Zouk, Rulin, Carmen and Joei..... All still looked the same, except 1 of them was a mother of 1 already. O_O!! anyway started drinking at Winebar before heading into Zouk. It wasn't crowded, Winebar was still able to find seats... Probably most of the party-goers were at Sentosa and before i forget, Mussel came back and he didn't tell us and went to Zouk to look for 'cais'!!.... hahaha..... I think he was alone and he was dancing here and there looking around, seem to me he was looking for something..... anyway here's some pictures taken.
This guy really resembles muscle, his facial expressions, his dancing moves, his actions, his hairstyle...... Hanny, Gary and me was like laughing our heads off whenever we saw him. hahaha
I think i lost some weight again. My jeans and my bermudas feel loosen. After 10years of trying to put on weights, yet no end result. Not that I don't eat, I ate a lot during meals but I still weight 57.5kg!!!..... I shall stop trying. :P Maybe i should even go X-ray my stomach and see if there is a worm inside. :P :P
Just got the news this afternoon from Kev that the discounts given by petrol stations were now 17%. Evening time he told me a better news, it went up to 20%..... Went to pump immediately after i reached home. WOW!!!.... indeed it is 20%. Pumped FULL TANK VPOWER!!!.... only $30+. Hope the discount will be here for good. This is crazy, which means a hike in petrol is very likely. In fact, diesel prices have gone up by 5cents. Stupid oil traders are causing all the increases in petrol......
Anyway my 1st module is coming to an end, tomorrow will be the last day of module 1. They have given me my exam vouchers. Lucky, one of the exam locations is opposite my office. Shall take 1 week to prepare before taking my exam. Passing mark : 60%. O_o"
Next week, will be going for module 2, at Chai Chee, another 5 days course. Missed this year CommunicAsia, wanted to go and take a look at the latest technologies but clashed with my course. Maybe it was a blessing in disguise......
Friday is here again, what to do, where to go. I'm going Alleybar again with my friend. Any takers?? Give me a call if you are. :)
After 3 days of intensive studies, my mind is now overloaded with all the Unix commands, the Solaris OS concepts and logics but at least now I know how to operate it. That's the best thing. I am more comfortable with the unknown Operating environment.
i'm struggling with the commands, there is so many commands i need to know. cp to copy a files and mkdir to create directory, but i think as time goes along, they should be on my fingertips. Worse, when ftp to another machines, it is another set of commands!!.... O_o!!!
2 more days, tomorrow must sequeeze some tips out from the instructor for my exams.
Proposed 1st Exam Date : 4 July Proposed 2nd Exam Date : 8 July Aim : SUN CERTIFIED SYSTEM ADMINISTRATOR
First day of lesson. Tough. At 1 end, i was battling the mighty [Zzzzz] monster, at the other end, i was trying to keep up especially I'm very new to the Sun OS Environment, at the end of the day, i was still able to keep up with the lesson. I think the only problem that i'm facing is the Unix commands. Lucky i brought my self study notes or else.........
I go do my revision first or else i will forget again.
Friday A half hearted day, was in a dilemma when Gary n co. said that they were going zouk. In the end, i went. Gave them a sudden surprise when I reached there. As usual, Gary a.k.a Superstar was late. Even I was earlier than them. Anyway it was a good choice to go, met a old section mate. Caught up with each other for a while before he went off to winebar to meet his friends.
After zouk, we were down at our usual joint - Artira for some pratas, milo-pengs and teh-pengs, and the same time, Gary decided to treat the One and Only Certificate that bear the name "SETH ONG" with Hanny's"teh-peng"..... (way to go, gary.....)
Saturday Woke up at 1300, washed up and was planning my day, and waiting for confirmation for our movie. A msg from Gary that we will be watching Mr. & Mrs Smith at Marina at 1640. Decided to park my car at Marina Sq and walk over to Suntec City for a quick shop before meeting the gang. Marina Sq was undergoing a major makeover, was kind of disoriented for a few seconds before getting my bearings right. Some sections of the mall was opened and some sections was still under renovation. I'm sure Marina Sq will attract a lot of shoppers when the mall is fully opened.
Got myself a pair of business pants from G2000 at 30% discount and an Adidas polo tee + a pair of socks @ $1 SGD + $50RSH Voucher. Before i realised, the time was 1630, rushed back to GV Marina only to find out the rest were still on their way. At about 1650, the rest arrived and hurried our way into the cinema. Swiftly we found our seats, and coincidentally the movie starts.
Pretty funny storyline, about 2 killers (Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie) working for 2 different rival organisation who by chance met each other and fall in love with each other and eventually got married, but few years later, the marriage was on the rock and some thing unexpectedly happened. Pretty funny and a bit exaggerating at certain part of the movie but still the movie was enjoyable.
After the movie, Gary and Angelina headed home first while myself, Hanny, Ivan, Princess, Beng and Ira proceed to Kev's place for the celebration of his cousin birthday. The usual samba prawns and squids, the healthy vegetables, the freshly made otahs, the delicious satays and the slightly burnt chicken wings filled our stomachs til the extend that I really had to stop eating. We tried mixing our own Lychee Martini but the result wasn't really ideal but still drinkable.
Ransacked Kev's com for ***** and viewing the hilarious Sentosa vids that we took last Sunday....... The rest are currently playing number ball, while i decide to come home and rest.
Next 2 week, will become a student again. 1 week at Takashimaya while the other will be at Chai Chee TechPark. Hopefully by June, I will proudly become Sun Certified System Administrator.
Yes. The Reds is allowed their Champion League title however that comes with a clause. They have to qualify the group stages from the first qualifying round.
Hope they won't screw up and got knock out during the first round. Keeping my fingers crossed.
Weeks again, my 'wife' bonnet was scratched by some cats i guess. I could tell by the 3 distinctive long scratches...... Keep trying with those scratches removals, it doesn't seem to get rid of it.
Anyway today I brought my 'wife' back to Toughseal for wash and at the same time get some products as well. Told the boss about scratches..... then he took something.... and don't know what he did..... seconds later........viola!!!..... the scratches are gone.... almost as good as new....
Well i guess the scratches wasn't too deep, otherwise it would have gone into my paintwork......
For the first time in many years.... i forgot about my wallet. I'm always very cautious of my belonging as i have lost too many things when i was young. I realised i must have left it in office and when i reach home, i did my usual de-kit of my personal belonging then i realised,
"What the hell!!!...... Where is my wallet?"
Lucky on my way home, i wasn't stopped by any polices for spot check or else I'll be in trouble for my forgetfullness. Hopefully today on my way to work, nothing happens.
Discover your Destiny with the Monk Who Sold His Ferrari
Courtesy of a friend, she introduced this book to me. Title : Discover your Destiny with The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari by Robin Sharma. So once again i embarked onto another reading addiction and the contents kind of captured my attention.
Interesting philosophy by the author, interesting to the extend that i'm starting questioning myself. Maybe i'm confused, but the teachings in the book touches on some things which i long aware off, things that I understand the purposes.
I wonder how much I will be able to digest these philosophies and integrate with my current life. Whatever it is, it looked like it is doing more good then bad.
Wow.... didnt realise i have not been updating for so long. Anyway, I was at the beach with the gang on Sunday. Wonderful weather, the sun was sunny but cool breeze was running across the beach.... Although, my back is hurting due to the prolong exposure in the sun but somehow still look the same to me unlike ppl like Ivan who looked darker.
As usual, activities like soccer and baseball were on the list but somehow times flies so fast and it was time to leave. Tanjong Beach have a new joint, and it looked like it was quite happening as the place was filled with ppls. Maybe we shall go there and have a look. Looked really fun.
After 27years, i'm finally enjoying cool air flowing in my room. Yes, my parents finally installed aircon after years and years of discussion. This is the 2nd night that I get to enjoy it.
Do you? Will you? Sorry, this sounded so crude. I mean would you look for a GF in your office? I wouldn't. Why? Simple, becos what if next time you and her break up and it would be so awkward when you see each other. Beside, you will see her almost like 24 hours and there is no personal space at all. Some company even discourage office relations, which i see why they discourage it.
Recently there seem like an increase in couple at my workplace. Some openly declare their relationship, some decides to keep it underground. So far, i think there are more underground relationship den open relationship.
i will still stick to my principles. 1. No office relationship 2. No becoming of third party 3. A must have personal space
So far can only think of 3.....will add on if there is more.
