Diet Plan Improvise

Last Saturday was my birthday, went to training in the morning, super tired...Was the first training where I used my Brand New Trivium paddle! Super not used to it, not still trying hard to get used... I decided to lengthen my new paddle to 49 inch, compared to my old 47 inch to seek for improvement...

Longer Paddle = Catch more water! = need more strength to control = more trainings needed!

Super Tired training cause I still not used to my new paddle, but had fun playing with my new paddle! After the training, they sang a happy birthday song, make me feel so paiseh... Den went to eat with them at bedok market before meeting my friends at Bugis eat steamboat.

Went down to bugis, meet up with my friends, eat steamboat, den went back to Yishun planning to go Orchid Country Club Play Bowling, end up playing pool~ Will Update pictures soon...

Ok, thats all for my 21st Birthday, next lets get into the main topic, my diet plans are up again today onwards, after I improvised it for 1 whole day.

These are the 10 rules and things I plan to do:
1. At least 30-45 mins of cardio, 4 times per week, but I plan to do daily.
2. Avoid Sugary Drinks!
3. More Smaller Meals Daily.
4. No Junk Food / Titbits.
5. Eat Slowly.
6. Take Stairs, brisk walk for short distance.
7. Do Cardio Before Breakfast!
8. Try to do 2-3 weight trainings per week. ( Planning to do on monday, wednesday, if possible on saturday or sunday night. )
9. Perform Cardio or weight training only 2 1/2 hours after meal.
10.Avoid meal within 45mins after exercise of all kind.

Haha, Writing it out sure is easier den maintaining them...
I also set wrote up a set of weight trainings I gonna do...

Ok Lets get into what I have done for today...

10.52am -> finished joggin and rest for 45mins before breakfast
11.40 am -> 1st meal Breakfast ( veri late one, almost considered lunch, ate mixed vegetable rice, with less rice, mince meat, fishball, beansprout )
12pm -> Finished breakfast, rest for 2 1/2 hours before I hit the gym
1.50pm -> 2nd small meal, Pancake ( Peanut Min Jiang Quey, chinese pancake x1 )
2.50pm -> Hit the gym, did the following work0uts...

Work, Work And Work!

This few days were working, and tml will be the last day of my super short 4 day part time...

The job is super slack and boring , I just sit there for 8 hours and enter data when there is orders else stare in the air or surf forums! BORING!

But anyway, this tuesday my family celebrated my birthday in advance at a restaurant, near yishun, but the food was quite good! and because they dun know wad to get for me, they me cash to buy present!

hahahaha, i decided to buy a trivium paddle! Why did I chose that? Since i going NS, handphones and shirt and etc will be not useful to me, so I decided to go for a long term investment... Since I tink I be rowing for quite some time, so I decided to invest in a trivium paddle for long term use...

Getting a new paddle can aid in improvements and better performance, and allows me to push myself more during trainings!

So I told my frens if they wan they can fork some money out for me and consider it as they are forking a part of the money for me as well! So at the same time I get angbaos and wad I want! so happy!~

Such a satisfying week for me, as things are all as I wished~ WEEE

Tml after work I am going down to buy my paddle~ Wonder wad colour I will get?

Anyway, 9th May, this Saturday also super packed... Afternoon training den at nite got my frens celebrating with me for my birthday. Sunday going to aunt's house to celebrate mother's day and my be-lated 1 day birthday again! Wahahah this week is juz so GREAT!


Following are some pictures that dove finally uploaded...



Lolx I like this picture! we took it at the chalet with the idea of this show and after dharfianto editing it, it just came out with great results!




This are some pictures taken on a night trail on 1 nite where TP was driving benson's family car and we visited some new locations around Singapore. ( at least all the 3 places it was my first time visiting! )

Lots of things happen in the past week

Ok lots of things happened last week, lets start from Saturday.

Saturday I had my dragonboat training, it was super tiring because we were practicing for long distance rowing, 800m... After the training we had a post- competition BBQ at angela's house. Super Awesome food, eat until I almost vomit. ( I was BBQing food and eating wadever that came out lolx )

And because there ws leftover food, in order to clear the food we actually play "Zhong ji mi ma" so whoever who hits the no. will have to eat some portion of the food. Super Fun!

After Saturday, Sunday for me was a fun experience too.

Me and My frens, Teow Poo, Weijie, and benson went to paula ubin to cycle. Not just cycling maybe...

It was my 2nd time to Puala ubin, and the first time was 2 years ago, and it seems that there are some changes there... We went to various locations on the island, and it was my first time at Chek Jawa, the natural reserve. 2 years ago it was not open to public, but now it's open to anyone. It was a nice experience there as there were lots of animals that were rarely seen.

Of course, we visited lots of other different locations, like going to various temples, visiting Jack the wild boar ( he is still there, just like the same as 2 years ago ) , climbing to the highest point of the quarry, looking for the lion shaped stone and etc...

Not forgetting to mention the 2 things that are "Memorialble" to be for this trip...

The first ting was that in order to find the hidden lion shaped stone, we had to bash into forest where there were no walking paths, so we have to explore into the forest, stepping onto branches and "Siam" tangling vines... It wasn't that bad experience, so I think my NS can survive hahaha...

Next ting, is to get up to the highest point of the quarry, climbing up wasn't the problem, because there are already paths walked out by people. But the thing is , it came to a point of a path where all the bushes were very THICK, and somehow my hair got stuck in ant hive, which was in the bushes... Den of course, I was attacked by those freaking big red ants, biting on my hair and my skin... Super pain, but super funny...

And last but not least, I think the mosquitoes were super full that day, with me and weijie feeding them... And we had a great lunch on Ubin before we came back!

Anyway, I found a job, think is short term, maybe 1 or 2 weeks only doing data entry~
Will Upload photos once I get them!~

Lolx no lar, my friends mostly kena tag else not posting those kind, so I din bother to do it...

With as much creativity as you can muster, show your heart in: 1 picture 1 poem 1 song or piece of music 1 phrase or quote 1 item of clothing 1 place 1 Disney princess

here's mine as a response from Dharfianto:



Sports
Something that I always like to do...
Allowing Me to Challenge Myself to Improve Myself and Become Better!




Perseverance
The mind's obedience
And
The heart's perseverance
Together can accomplish
Everything they want to.




Gai Bian Zi Zhi
"wo ke yi gai bian shi jie,
gai bian zi ji,
gai bian "gu mo",
gai bian xiao qi,
yao yi zhi nu li nu li yong bu fang qi,
cai ke yi gai bian shi jie,

Like this song because its just like me, keep working hard to make changes for improvements!




Mary Lou Retton - American Olympic Gymnast, Speaker
"I'm very determined and stubborn. There's a desire in me that makes me want to do more and more, and to do it right. Each one of us has a fire in our heart for something. It's our goal in life to find it and to keep it lit. "

What she say is true! I Like what she said.





Party Tank Tops Or Singlets
I always like singlets and party tank tops, but the real fact is, I dun look good wearing them... Thats the sad part...




Home
The place I like best compared to other places. I like alot of places, like beach and courts where I play volleyball, reserviors where I row dragon boat, and many more, but none of them can be compared to home. This place is the shelter for me for rain and shine, and I have no worries and sorrows at home... And my nice comfortable bed...

Of course, the picture above is not my house, I am not tat rich to live in tat... I live in a nice HDB with a nice neighbourhood, which I really like... If I can choose, I will still prefer to live in HDB...



Mulan
Ok ok, I know she is not a princess, but she is a female cartoon from disney rite? Anyway, 1 of my favorite Disney cartoons. Who would I be? Not Mulan for sure, she's a gal! I am the dragon behind her, named Mushu! He's a hilarious fella!

Ok finally finish everything... took me soo long... Before I end I wish to share 1 picture with you all... found it when doing this post...




TEAMWORK
Something I find really important! The picture really shows what is " 1 for all, all for 1".
Few ways you can look at it --
Everyone in a team work towards 1 aim, and the aim make everyone works together!
or just simply, you just need 1 cheese to take down all the rats, and all the rats will be stupid enough to be taken down by just 1 small piece of cheese! ( Not really teamwork... )

My Confessions About RP Volleyball and Sorry That I Had Always Wanted To Say To My Friends...

This is going to be the last time I should be talking about RP Volleyball in my blog, so its gonna be a longer version then anyone else. I would confessing things that have been kept inside me for a long time and I have lots of apologies to say out which was not said.

Before I start, I would tell people who don't really know me well how I am actually like. My E3 good friends, My Rp closer friends and classmates, should know that I am a person that is straightforward, stubborn and realistic.

If I don't like something I will bitch about it, if I don't agree to someone's ideas I will pour cold water over it, and I am a person who don't restricts myself. I do things when I wants to, and people can hardly change my mind if my mind is set. I don't do things if I don't like and nobody can do anything about it. I am a very daring person, daring to do things that will so call "throw face".

What to prove what I say? Look at my facebook pictures... I dare to put cups in my shirt and act as bimbos to take pictures, I dare and like to dance para para in the arcade and getting passerby as audience, I dare to roll around in RP for no reasons to entertain my friends, and I dare to challenge things that I really scare of, which is height.

Lets get back to the topic, today I went back to RP to play volleyball with 1 volleyball graduate, Tengyi. Before we went back, I told tengyi that I was not expecting any change in the team, and as I expected, it was as usual. After the training, we went to mcdonales in yishun to chill out and I told him lots things that I have kept inside myself for a long time.

Thoughts That I Kept In Me For A Long Time

To be honest, I only enjoyed my 1st and 2nd year in RP volleyball. In the 3rd year it became a burden and has came to an extend to make me hate volleyball.

Why did I say so? In my 1st and 2nd year of my RP volleyball life, I know nothing about volleyball, but at that time, thankfully I had this coach, Kwan Thye who was willing to help me learn and improve. And even though in my 2nd year I was the QM of the team, which does all the so called "dirty jobs" while others didn't bother to do, but I was enjoying all the things that I was doing. The team was really fun at the point of time, people joke about me and we laugh... There were also seniors who trusted my skills and were patient enough to help me improve...
I really liked volleyball alot at the point of time, even though it cause me to missed lots of things in life but I never regretted. Everything was so smooth, that I actually tried picking up another IG with my friend gary. I tried to go for Canoeing team's training for a few times, but as time passed by, maybe for around 2 weeks, I realize that problems of training time was clashing and I was forced to make a choice to give up either 1. And obvious, I chose to stay in volleyball, even though I really enjoyed the Canoeing team's training and wanted to learn canoeing.

But things changed drastically since my 3rd year came... Out of no reasons I was promoted to Vice-captain of the team. And the reasons the coach gave me was that my attendence and attitude was better. Everyone was suprised the moment they heard that I was vice-captain, cauase no one expected it, even for myself. Everyone had a mind set that usually the ones who have better skills and can lead the players in competitions will be captains and vice-captains in the team. The reason that came to my mind the moment is that I was the vice-captian just because there was no other choices for him, and is not because I was capable to being 1. It really makes me feel sad, and incapable...

Without choices, I was a vice-captain and soon, year 1s came in and someone suggested a change in coach. This was when volleyball starts to becomes a nightmare to me. The new coach, to my observation, is more of a bias coach who is those that says that I will try to help everyone to improve, but his actions shows that he only focus on those that are better or has good factors. I don't mean that he is not a good coach, but to my standing he isn't much help to people like me.

I remembered he said this sentence to me before during 1 friendly match, and didn't gave me chance to play during the friendly match. In fact during the year 3 days I wasn't given much chance to play during friendly matches at all. He said this to me :" I want to give more chance to the year 1s to improve and gain more experience, so you don't mind I let them play hor?"
Doesn't this sentence hints to you he only needs his year 1 now? I am not needed here. And as soon as he becomes the coach of the team, he picked year 1s as new captains and vice-captains, getting ready to replace me and zhiping. And obviously, he picked 2 that are more skillful in the team.

From that point of time onwards, I had seldom recieve any comments or compliments from the coach on how to improve, in fact sometimes I find myself there to fill in the numbers and even at times hinderance to the whole team improvement. I feel dissapointed, and felt like a maid, just doing things for no motive. I realize that I had no improvements made at all during year 3. I have also never heard of this 1 very simple compliment that has always made me move on... "Keith, hao qui... Nice recieve, or nice save of the ball...." this were the things that really made me move on to improve and like to play volleyball as a team sport.

Worst of all that made me felt terrible, I wasn't able to communicate well with the team members, and even my captain zhiping at all. I just dunnoe why, I can't seems to communicate well with certain people, and they seems to be all from volleyball team. Zhiping and yenkai, after thinking back, seems that everytime I talked to you all is all about the volleyball team's matters, we didn't really talk cock chit chat alot... and as for the year 1s, I duno why I always kept so quiet, and have no topics to talk about to you guys.

I dun think is because of my personality because it seems that I was able to get along with every single one else around me, my secondary friends, my RP friends and my dragonboat friends... I can talk about anything freely as I want to...

I tried to help the team to improve in the discipline, other than doing what I usually do as a QM. I told that many times not to wear slippers to school, and be on time for trainings, but nobody really cares. Until we get ban again and again, they will learn their lesson. Be on time for training, again and again I have been saying, but until now it seems that training will always only starts when coach comes... If you have court booking for 4 hours and you have the passion to improve your skills, would you want to spend fully the 4 hours to train and improve, or only start changing after wasting 30mins and do warmup when the coach reaches the court? Maybe I have taken it too seriously, but I believe if you really want to improve, discipline like this is important.

It really took not long for me to have a mentality of quiting the team, but because of my stubboness and my passion for volleyball, I decided to stay back for this last year. And at this point of time, a chance came up to me and I picked up a new sport, Dragon boating.

Dragon Boating
It was a total different environment here in the Dragon boat team... I was the youngest in the team at that point of time, as the rest of the team members were all working adults. And it was the direct opposite of my volleyball team, where I was the oldest in the team. So the mentality wise in both sides were very different. I was well taken care of in the team and they were all very patient people to help me improve. They always gave encouragement to everyone and help whoever that needs improvement. I really enjoyed the environment and I have decided I wanted to stay in this team. I like those kind of encouragement gave when we do a team sport. I also like those jokes and gossips my team mate alway talk about and tell me their experience.

Apologies to my friends...
E3 Best Friends
SORRY SORRY SORRY, because of my stubboness and always want to improve, I chose to go for trainings and miss alot of the gatherings. But you guys know me for 8 years already, you know when my mind is set to do something I really like, I will put in all my effort and try to improve because I always wanna improve myself. You guys know at alot of times I will emo and have no confidence in myself, finding myself weak and useless, thats why I always want to do better that who I am now.

I can still remember the laughters and darcy alway complaining and saying bad things about fat gals... Special thanks to darcy, you helped me to improve in my skills, and help me to take me first step to tell Kwan Thye I wanted to train to be Libero...

Wireless year 3 Gang

Super paiseh... and I believe it will be the last time I will be crying because of RP Volleyball!

Finally release everything out...

"Sometimes putting in full effort doesn't means that you will be given the chance to improve and learn, other factors such and experience and age might be the hinderence to you...
But if you never try, you will never learn and improve, and never know what the outcome will be...
So those who are given the chances please cherish it, like what I do, before it is given to someone else..."

Swimming In The Waters Of Bedok Reservoir

Wow, this 2 days was having competition at bedok reservoir, and the results was ok, although we din get into finals for any of the races...

Out of 4 races that we have participated, 2 of the races went into semi-finals, which is the 20mens and CSC race.

For CSC race I did not roll but my team almost got into finals but lost be split seconds and came in 3rd in semi-finals, so thats the end for it.

And the one that I was rowing, which is the 20mens boat, really made my day. My competitors were really strong, which consist of RP, NP, NYP, and another 2 teams. Even though we know they were strong, we have decided to put in our best shot in the race and hope to achieve at least a 3rd for that race. We had very high morale! But things eventually turn out out of expectations everytime...

In the first 100meters of the race, we started very well, and were quite near, and maybe even on par with the poly teams. But this is when unexpected things happen...

1 of the competitor boats beside our lane lose control and crash into our boat, cause our boat to capsized... How unexpected... The moment I realized that was when the boat was 45 degrees tlited, and I was thinking, not again! Why did I say tat, because its my 2nd offically 20men race, and everytime its the 20men boat that accidents happen. First time was during regatta last year where a boat came crashing into us right before the finishing line, and this time even better, we got capsized.

The moment I fall into the water I was like cursing in my heart, cause I was hoping to see what are my best results I could get. Hai... Super Sad and Angry...

But anyway, 1 thing I can confirm is that bedok reservior waters is sure to be cleaner and much more nicer than lower seletar's water!

Another news, I got my enlistment letter and my enlistment date is like october 8th. Thats like freaking long. Now I am considering to apply for early enlistment or not. Please gimme some advice people! and tell me when is your enlistment date! If I dun go in early I have to start looking for jobs again... Sian...

And there goes my first PA Paddlez Race experience, and I believe that we are the 1 and only team that have capsized in PA Paddlez 2009 race... Lolx!

So Fun, So Tired...

Woot past few days was xtreme busy... went to chalet on friday, sat and sunday rowing boat...

The chalet was total fun! although is just a 2 day 1 night chalet, it was great! Weije's NS frens and our E3 friends were there, and we were like gossiping around about weijie, then when bixia and the gals arrived, we were like digging out manchun's secret... As the night gets later after the BBQ, we went back into the room and took pictures... LOTS OF PICTURES! I was total cam whoring the whole night and coming up with lots of wierd poses... ( I still cant believe i did the 10 act cute pose super disgusting...) But more or less thats all for the chalet and I proceed to rowing right after the chalet...

This weekend's sun was totally awsome! The sun was sooooo good that I was complaining that it was so hot! I put in sooo much effort that the first thing that I reach home and do is to sleep, SUPER TIRED...And right after trainings, the first ting I would say is:" Damn, sunburn again!". Now I am suffering from muscle aches and sunburns badly, Ouch...

This coming weekend will be competition race weekend for me so I will not be free. This weekend after race also have to go attend my RP fren, zhiliang's birthday party. Thats all for now, I am going to play volleyball later at CCAB! Yeah! will update again soon...

Friday, April 17, 2009

Opps I Did It Again...

Yap, i did it again... forgot to post blog lolx...

Ok, lemme post for the past few days... on monday, I went down to CCAB to play leisure volleyball with a bunch of leisure players, was really fun I really enjoyed it! It's considered a totally different experience from playing leisure volleyball compared to trainings, cause I can mess things up without having to consider bout scores and consequences ! Haha... But I really enjoyed my nite...

Ok, tats mostly for this week, and tomorrow I am going chalet! Although is 2 day 1 nite, I tink I am gonna enjoy it for sure! After the chalet on sat I have training at bedok reservior, so travelling will be easier for me! hehe...

Last but not least, I would like to share a youtube video with everyone , not very new, but my fren dharfianto intro to me... for more of this series of videos search for Nick Pitera...

Yesterday (Friday), I went to play basketball in the morning with my friends, and went to benson house after that... As they were playing mahjong at ben's house (too many people so I din get play), the rest of us were like playing PSP...

Ok thats not the main point, the main point is that today my dragonboat training I put in my 120% to train!! Super tired... Because tomorrow I got to go sweep tomb, so tomorrow's training I have to skip, and thus I made me put in my best shot today. Because today got not much people turning up for training, we practice our strokes. After training went home first thing is sleep, super tired...

Now whole body aching, need to rest again lolx! ok lar tats all for today cause tml morning still have to go sweep tomb... monday update again cause monday I going to play volleyball!

RP Graduation

Yesterday was the graduation ceremony from RP. Was considered quite fun as I was able to meet up with my friends and took lots and lots of pictures.

The ceremony waiting time was quite long, but fortunately I was able to chit chat with my frens. And by the time I was on stage, it was quite a quick moment where I went out to take my diploma and walk down the stage.

After that there were all those talking and speech stuff, and it made me felt that, hey, I graduated already ar? those kind of feeling...

Although I will miss RP for sure, I will have to move on no matter wad and now I must look forward that university (especially NTU/NIE) to take me in!

Dunoe why everything when things happened, you will find you have not cherish it enuff... Even though my RP life was busy and fun, I find that I have not archive enough from it...

But I would like to say here, many things to RP and frenz around me, I was able to learn alot of things from RP, like discipline, responsibility, and a important lesson is that choices eventually allows you to gain something will let you lose something...

Sorry to my RP frens, I made a choice to gain more experience and skills to go trainings during RP, thus I have lost lots of time where I can spend with you all...

Ok lastly, posted some pictures in the right bottom colummn, those are the pictures I like best! For more of my graduation picture, go to facebook and take a look!

Anyway, tomorrow is my graduation ceremony ler... so actually I got to prepare some stuff today, and actually not all done yet... hehe... Haven iron my clothes need to iron after this...

Because I have to wear a white shirt inside the graduation gown, its a good chance for me to go shopping! I went to walk around northpoint in the evening before going to the gym, and bought a white shirt for 40 bucks at NET . (heart pain no income still spend so much, mom's money...) But I quite like the shirt as it was fitting and the effect I wore out also not bad!

Ok after that I went down to Khatib gym with my fren benson to do some exercises and went home planning to prepare to iron clothes, but eventually draggin until now still haven started....

3 Days Countdown to Graduation Ceremony

Today was another day of training at bedok reservoir... Felt abit guilty cause I was quite slack today cause my knee pain so I cannot run and I get to rest during 2nd half of the training, so I only trained 1 hour today... GUILTY haha... but I got put in my full power during the hour of training I was in lar...

Ok, 3 more days and I can considered a graduate from RP already, now I realize time really passed quite fast, where things changed so much ever since then.

---------------------------------------------
YEAR 1
Remember my year 1 days, where most of the time, I would stay back in school after school to play dota with my classmates during the first semester, with my class W25L, Ohana.... Those days were really memoriable... And not forgetting how I came up with the prata gang thingy...

In the 2nd semester of my year 1, I was in a class with lots activities! W25D... They class were filled will great people, lots of them, cant mention all, where we always have lots of activities going on, like playing volleyball at the corridor, playing captain's ball, cam-whoreing etc.
Those days were really fun, where sporty activities occupy alot of my time...

These are the days where I really find volleyball the most fun, no responsibilities, I started off with knowing noting learning from the basics, with frenz like gary, ryan , darcy, nigel , alex , wilson , and seniors all around trying to help me learn, and mus will play pranks on alex... remember those days crawling in spans and ending up all dirty by the time I finish training, so fun...

---------------------------------------------
YEAR 2
When it reaches 2nd year, things to settle down alot more and eventually became more plain...eventually classes become more like classes, although once in a while I will still play dota with my 2nd year class, but I would spend alot more time on volleyball. It was this point of time where responsibilities came up to me as a QM of the team, and I have to take care of bits and pieces of the team.

Volleyball is still fun to me at this time, where there are still lots of people to joke with me around, like pengjie, yenkai, roy, wilson,tengyi to throw temper around and needs people to pacify, zhiping, alex will still come to training, wallace to talk cock with... Although we are not a very strong team and we don't have lots of people, and I don't play well, it was still veri fun.

---------------------------------------------
YEAR 3
This was the time where RP life was a big change for me, my daily classes were in different classes but eventually I got to hang around with my group of "wireless" specialization frenz, where I seems to be the joker around~ This was the point of my life where I really find that I can have different faces when I am with different people. In class I can be a joker, wa-yang master( Super Actor!), while when in volleyball I can be a serious vice-cap that takes my training veri seriously.

But at the same time, Life in volleyball tends to be abit heavier to me... Somehow I was promoted vice-captain of the team...
This was the time where I learn about discipline, responsibilities and sportsmanship of a sportsman and a vice-captain... but to be honest, I really dun like to be a vice-cap, because I have to do lots of things like nagging the players bout discipline, and time management and this and that...
But I was really honoured to be the vice-cap of the team as I was given the chance to deal with lots of different situations, like solving difficult problems, and learn how to manage with stress. (being the weakest player in the team and at the same time as a vice captain is not easy! )

And also at this most difficult time, I managed to pick up another sport, dragonboating, which I really enjoy because I finally get back those feelings where I do not have to stress about stuff and all I need to care is to let myself improve and improve more!

---------------------------------------------

Time really Flies, and I really missed those days... Those days of dota owning people and getting owned, those days of playing captain ball with other classes, those days of going to training and doing basic drills at spans while the seniors are training on the court, gossiping with alex and wilson during my volleyball training, and many many more...

Events Happened Throughout 2009...
Ok gonna talk about my past few events happened in 2009 in today's post since I haven been updating for SOOOO long.

Ok, so basically now I am graduated from RP already, so I am bloody free rotting at home waiting for enlistment. So I haven been playing volleyball so some time, and I really missed my volleyball trainings. Need to find some place where i can play volleyball.

Some major events happened this year is the Surf and Sweat beach volleyball and recent MR 500 dragonboat race.

Surf and sweat was more of a earlier event this year, where I and few of my frenz took part in the beach volleyball. I enjoyed that day quite much as I get to play volleyball again with some of my close frenz. Currently I still haven get the pictures so I will try to update when they are rdy. Anyway although the results terrible haha, but we really enjoy it! In the first place we was not planning to win anything, and was there just to enjoy ourselves. Great weather that day thank goodness it never rained.

Next event was the MR 500 dragonboat race. Although my team didn't participate in the event, I was helping another team by the name of silent dragons to row for 1 of the races on Sunday. Although we lost, but I really managed to learn alot from the valuable experience. Managed to see some people I knew from RP around and enjoyed it tat day.

Some other things are like my weekly trainings on saturadays and going gym weekly on my own with benson~ Oh and almost forgot, went to celebrate a super BELATED birthday with tyng chong on sunday last week after the MR 500 race, and I will update the pictures soon as well~
