Okay, shall do a little cleaning up here by clearing the dust and posting a little update about the past few weeks since the start of August...

Had wanted to post pictures initially, but halfway through sorting them out, i realised there were just too many of these past 3 weeks to squeeze into 1 post so I shall post them another time.. maybe =b

Somehow it feels like I have flipped to a brand new chapter of my life starting the 1st of this month, kinda made official after returning from the short holiday to Batam with a bunch of friends I've made in the GD course.. something like a graduation trip now that the course is officially over..

My thoughts on the course? If you ask me, it feels like whatever knowledge I've picked up.. the technical skills, the tools, the internship experience, the opportunities.. they don't count for much when compared to this bunch of crazy-assed, like minded friends that I've got to know in this one year.
And it's ultimately these bonds i formed with them, that I feel are the greatest, and dare i say it, only assests I've truly gained in this year. I sure am gonna miss the times I've spent with them. The late nights, AND the early mornings in the shitcold-crazy lab. The painful (for our wallets.. or mine at least.. haha!) trips to nihon mura. The DOTA matches. The pantry lunches. The complain sessions about bosses, horrible english speaking teachers, lame jokes and so much more. Thanks for everything that you guys have shared with and given me although many of you probably won't read this ^.^

Next up, after coming back from the holiday, was to WORRY (what's new) about what's going to be. Job offers coming in, didn't tempt me enough. They weren't.. how should i put it, what I wanted to do? I mean, if I were to take those offers up, I might as well have stuck with an engineering job back then rights? After all, wasn't that the reason why I dumped my degree to go into another field in the first place? To do something i actually want to do.
So yea, decided to try for the startup with JY. Risky, yes.. but what is the point in living a life doing something you can't find a meaning in? After all, I'm still YOUNG rights??? Relatively at least ^.^
I figured I probably shouldn't start thinking about pursuing crazy stuff like this only after slogging half my life away in a small cubicle in a corner of some cramped up office doing some simple unimpactful and unimportant programming codes rights?

The other thing that had been plentiful and bountiful for these past weeks, were birthdays!!!! OMG there are like so many!! Didn't even know I had that many 89 friends!!! But it was fun catching up and mixing around with people again. Made a few new friends here and there, caught up with some others. Saw faces I haven't seen in a loooooong time.

The next buncha people I've been seeing really often are the people from ninjado!!!! Another bunch of fun and interesting people to be with. Kinda like a miniature family by itself the way everyone compliments each other. I guess it's always fun to meet new people.. To learn about them. To learn from them. People from all walks of life. And i'm still learning new things by the day! Like Alice's extreme fear for cockroaches! Didn't tell her that she kinda have the same fear as me though =b
Of course the training's a whole thing altogether. The warm ups are still painful like crazy though I'm slooooowly getting used to it. Push-ups with my kunckles are still... something else... something... I have to work on more? lol!
Anyone knows how to magically grow more meat on your knuckles? >.<
Seeing everyone getting their new belts makes me feel happy for them. After all they have been working hard for it.. Kinda can't wait for my grading in FOUR LOOOOOOOONG months time.. oh mannn, I'm gonna be a white belt for 5 months! Roar!

The family's much closer now.. though it still feels britle. like temporary? But I guess spending time DOES make a difference. Guilty as charged..
Zoomed down to cine with the crazy brother at 4am to watch airbender 2 weeks back. Something I probably wouldn't have done in the past.
I knew that he would watch movies alone from time to time, but I never bothered offering to watch with him even though I would still be awake at those crazy timings in the morning. Until now..
I guess Starcraft 2 did help a little too. After all it was somthing that we did together..

Well, all I can say is that sometimes, things happen for a reason. And more often than not, you do not see the reasons until much later.. I guess if my life had been what it was a few months back, I probably would not have been able to have found the time to do all the above mentioned things. Not that my life back then wasn't good, or that I wasn't happy, but i guess there should always be a balance? And my life back then definately wasn't balanced. So yea, I like the way things are right now i guess? And I like that we are talking and going out every once in a while again =)

Alrights.. Until the next update! (Hopefully with pictures from Batam, the parties and the gatherings!)
And hopefully the talks go well tmr.
And i can't wait for k-box in the evening with Miss Kee, Miss Yam and Mr Wong.
And the steamboat at my place on wednesday with the IDGT peeps!
And ninja-do training on thursday.
And the cook off on saturday with Cyrus!!!
WTHS! I didn't know i was this packed for the week!
BZBZBZ!!!

Please let me fall asleep! =(
