there is no place like home.......

well, i juz came home from a week stay at my kuz's house at Katong. it was so fun! the house is filled with expensive things. so everyone gotta be xtra careful. and my lil kuz played with his new friend the Playstation until 2 am. they are both crazy. but to look at them is very cute. they pair up perfectly. then, few days past and it was:
THURSDAY
so, six of us were in the car on the way to my aunt's house at Sengkang from Yishun. we were on the way back from fetching me from my soccer match at school. and so we were also listening to the radio 98.7 FM. at that point of time, they were having this contest where they make the song really fast and the listeners have to guess it. suddenly, they were playing the track and i right away knew the song title and artist. i then told my kuz to sms the answer. so, the station called back and told her that she won the prize of THE KILLERS CD HAMPER. after she hung up the phone, everyone in the car screamed of happiness.
i reminded her to burn a copy of the CD album for me coz i am part of the contest.

that was briefly what happened on Thursday. it was soon Friday and we had to go home back to Yishun. right after we reached Yishun, i walked myself up and slept throughout the evening.


....more to come....

Alhamdulillah, i am grateful for everything.

Wow. Five years since my last post. Well, a whole lot has changed in five years. I never knew what dreams are made of and i never knew what it was like to achieve your dreams. Through hard work and pure grit and determination, you can achieve your dream. There will be times where you think your goal is just out of reach or it will take you a longer time than originally hoped for but trust yourself to make small leaps of faith and many unimaginable things can be achieved. As a Muslim, i believe Allah is the best of planners and alhamdulillah, He is the best of planners. There were times i doubted myself about my life and what i wanted to do because the journey to achieve my dreams is taking longer than i had imagined. Five years ago i was still in the National Service serving in the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) as a Third Sergeant taking NSmen for Individual Physical Proficiency Test (IPPT) and conducting Remedial Training (RT) as well as IPPT Preparatory Training (IPT). In 2014, i had ...

Fruit Loan Sharks.

For the first time in two years, i went back to the old fruit farm that my grandparents own to help them collect the fruits that are blooming and still continue to bloom till now and tomorrow and till it doesn't bloom anymore. Was freakishly tired from the three hour drive up and back down to SG. Reached SG at about 10 and now is few hours after that. Took time to rest then blog. It was big. The fruits collected were as usual bigger and heavier than 40kg. That is the weight of me. The fresh durians, mangosteens and rambutans are simply tempting. But sadly, since it has already been weeks that i've eat it i have started to feel disliked towards the fruits. Anyways, the first thing i did when i came was to put my long sleeved shirt to protect me from the mosquitoes. In the end, i still got bitten. IDK. Then, walked all the way to the back of the land to start work - collecting fruits. It was only 3 acres of land. Ok. End of story. Today was just about this journey. And i think i ...

950 days and counting.

It's been only three months since i re-enlisted into Specialist Cadet School (SCS) in Pasir Laba Camp but felt like many years. I've been busy with training and juggling time to keep up with my family, my loved one and the outside world. I haven't met my friends for quite some time already, Shall find time for them after graduation.  On the bright side, i have only 63 days left (as of this post) to graduating as a 3rd Sergeant. On top on that, i've only 27 days left in Singapore before my departure to Sai Yok Camp in Thailand for overseas training. I'm excited but at the same time feeling a little saddened to be leaving my loved ones for three weeks or so. Nevertheless, it'll be a new experience for me and something for me to learn from. This post is just a short update of my life just to get the dust off this dusty place. (don't remind me of the outdated colour scheme) Anyway, as the title suggest, it's been a whopping 950 days since 16th Septe...
