It was just one year ago that i was first introduced into the world of the Commandos. Thinking back, I didn't have a very good first day back then in Hendon.

Right smack in the morning, I had to leave home for Hendon. Luckily Sarah was nice enough to come over early in the morning to follow us to my journey to hell. Well what ever it is, it is my one year anniversary since i last stepped into that place.

And how life is so different from last year now. And on top of that, I can take out my P plate out of the car already haha

I can't stand to fly
I'm not that nieve
I'm just out to find
The better part of me

I'm more than a birdaaI'm more than a plane
More than some pretty face beside a train
It's not easy to be me

Wish that I could cry
Fall upon my knees
Find a way to lie
About a home I'll never see

It may sound absurdaabut don't be nieve
Even Heroes have the right to bleed
I may be disturbedaabut won't you conceed
Even Heroes have the right to dream
It's not easy to be me

Up, up and awayaaaway from me
It's all rightaaYou can all sleep sound tonight
I'm not crazyaaor anythingaa

I can't stand to fly
I'm not that nieve
Men weren't meant to ride
With clouds between their knees

I'm only a man in a silly red sheet
Digging for kryptonite on this one way street
Only a man in a funny red sheet
Looking for special things inside of me

It's not easy to be me.

i did track today. for my first time..

Yesterday, they asked me wat was my timing for 400m in a meetin. I said 65s. They said "THink u should qualify". Today i ran a 64s and i didn't qualify.

Straight after that, they did the 800m heats 1. Heats 2 was my heats. I could not even walk. Ok. I just ran. I ran a 3m11s. My 1 km timing is 3m20s. I bet i could have done a 2m20s if i didn't run a 400m b4 that.. lol.. oh.. and they had some cock up in their runnning lanes and i effectively ran 10m longer than everyone else. I was on lane 5, the outer most runner. It was supposed to be "after the first hundred, cut to the first lane" but we did a "after 500m cut into the first lane". Butthat 10m wouldn't have made a diff cos i was so fuckin far behind.

And for the first time i experienced what i thought was only possible on the plane doing aero-batics. I had tunnel vision on the 550m markl TUnnel vision was an experience where your outer most vision starts to black out and slowly moves towards the center, where u lose ur vision.. cos of lack of blood when all rushes to ur legs, on the plane.. guess i had not enough O2 when i was runnin.

S280 - HUGE!!!

Drove Sarah's S280 today. Compared to camerys and ciferos and kwanyi's e240, this S280 is like a huge jumbo jet!!

Driving that car to Gardens felt like i was a piper pilot? forced to fly a Boeing 777 to Changi Airport and expected to do it without damaging it? man the experience is so damn different. U guys have to "fly" it to believe it..

Well.. i dun really understand wat i jus said too.. haha good ngiht guys..

Hawkers

Just found out today that my dad pays $16000 a month on rent, on one drink stall. How the hell does he make back all the money? the rent, the pay, the electricity...

Well u will stop wondering once u know he makes $2000 every morning. And $1500 after that, on normal days. So on Saturday and Sundays.... well.. i wonder too..

3500x30 will come up to $105000.. So 16000 goes to rent, 40000 goes to the drinks (they make about 60 cents per $1 drink) and maybe about 10000 goes to workers? That comes up to about $40000 for himself..

Forget CEOs and Directors. Even pilots in the RSAF don't come close to that amount. Stop lookin down on that sweaty old man that fries kway teow every single moment of his life. He is freakin richer than most of u all. They just don't have the time to pemper them selves.

WHERE WERE ALL THE BUSES?

THE TWIST

Just a little update to the "STOLEN WALLET" story, there was a dramatic twist to the story.. whoops.. haha sorry took so long to blog it out..

Well. the very nxt day, i took mC and went about driving around getting my stuff replaced.. Went to Jurong PT OCBC bank, wanted to get a replaced ATM card. The process was going on well, and i was using my PASSport, Until the supervisor, some ugly auntie came by and said my passport was expired, can't use.. THan i went on arguing with them.

"Why must the passport be updated?"

"Sorry we can't accept it"

"THe EXPIRED passport does proves that i am ME right?"

"Sorry we can't do it."

As i walked to the carpark, i was callin OCBC customer service to verify wat that auntie did. Well, wat she did was right, but i dunno why isit right.

SO i went to levander to do my passport, without my IC. after spending 15 mins lookin for a parkin lot, i went to the counter to find that i can't get my Passport updated w/o IC. FUCK...

Tried my luck again at OCBC orchard. I needed my atm card urgently cos i was low on fuel and i had no cash to pay for replacement fees of the SIm card and petrol and IC and alot of stufff..

I faked my way thru at Orchard. LOL thank god. i got my CARD

I went to star hub and got my sim card w/o any further disturbance.

BUT WHEN I WENT HOME, i opened my letter box,

"TA MA DA!!!!!" I saw my wallet and phone inside, not a single cent missing.

That concludes my lost wallet story.
