East coast food center

Dinner was at east coast food center, though they had renovated the place quite sometime ago, its my first time there since they reopened. The variety of food there is very limited, though there are many stores & the ambience is actually quite good for a food hawker center (not to mention romatic at night), what they...

Mother’s day dinner, armour Family day pictures

Went for my so called "weekly" morning swim since a year's time at delta swimming complex. The sports council closed the one at bukit merah since the HDB moved out last year & say the place is so quiet ever since. The swim wasn't that bad, considering that I hadn't swam 50m lap consceutively since I enlisted...

Starsky & Hutch

Caught Starsky & Hutch at cineleisure with my cousin today, not a bad, "the 70s" crime bustin' show. Had lunch at taka before that where I finally got the SIGG bottle with a design and colour I wanted (naturally being black). You can try checking out the variety of bottles there, far better than any I've seen...

Strangely enough, I am feeling very sleepy now, almost nodding off a few times lately and its only 12midnight. My sister is off for some long partying trip with her classmates, partly because both my parents are away on a relaxation trip, so literally the whole house was mine today. Spent most of my time today coding...

Life of a commander

I guess the army do really open up the world and perspective I have of people- like meeting all kinds of people from all walks and backgrounds. Namely a few outstanding ones like the rich and successful, the poor, the brokened, the orphaned, the sick, the rejects. Meeting up with such people is really very much a...

Before payday blues…

*sigh* guess its pretty much the month-end (or in this case month-start) blues, just say its the blue period before payday. Due in 6days time, even as a specialist pay is a dull low $750 per month. As the army song goes they pay you hundred dollards, they take back 99. Some spotlights these few days: life firing...
