Relaxed?

My driving test is on tomorrow afternoon and I am feeling (yet strangely) very relaxed compared to my previous test. Guess considering that it would be my second attempt, moreover if I fail, its just "oh well time to book another test then". 🙄 Found some time to actually site down and relax today. Had a few rounds...

Whats things becoming too?...

Contacts… eww

*pokes eyes with fingers* neato. Booked out of camp around 7pm for nights off, got my dad to fetch me to tiong baru to collect my contact lenses ready today. As it was my first time with contacts, the optician very much spent some time teaching me how to put them on after like 3 tries, lost...

Project “project”

Went for driving this morning, again me and the instructor had talk on driving testers & I guess the Poh guy who took failed me the other month was rather notorious for doing so. Mr Yeo my driving instructor for the day even told me that my tester failed his own driving test 5 times, you think...

End of waterpolo season

Our last match ended about one week ago with a 10-3 win against 3rd Division, resulting in an eventual placing of 7 out of 11 in the whole national level, one place ahead of last year's placing. All in hand we won 2 matches (against Combat Engineers & 3rd div) and lost 3 (against Arty, Commandos &...

Shopping spree

Dropped by to John's house with him paying the cab fare from camp *duh* so I can get a look and troubleshoot his new, yet problematic computer. It turned out that nothing could be done after one hour of checking here & there, suspecting either a faulty graphics card or motherboard as nothing was displayed onscreen at...

Karpal, team team member in the AOH creative commitee just called just now, informing me of the rather impressive flash movie intro movie for AOH I cooked up dumbly in the first half of the week.

Losing streak

Lost waterpolo match Well, when there are lots of up recently, there will too come the downs. I guess the last *up* was me getting the news to be "attached" to home for Army Open House projects and tasking. Then, luck came falling down- first with us losing against Commandos in the regiment waterpolo match, the second lost...
