finally im recovering and getting back to the same old me again.
i have recovered from my bad illness. It was one bad illness i ever gotten during 2004. It was so pathetic and bad till my whole xmas period was ruined. Couldnt go for my annual jc class gathering, couldnt go to my family gathering, couldnt eat xmas food stuffs and couldnt meet up with my odac pals for dinner plus gift exchange. It was so bad that i was downed with high fever with concurrent aching body which i was bed-ridden temporarily for 2 days, bad tonsilitis which gave me that fever and a bad throat. Then followed by persistent coughs and a temporarily lost of my sense of smell and i lost 4kg within a week. Suxs. However, i managed to recover after consuming an antibiotics whose tablets are $7 per piece as the normal prescribed ones of $2 per piece doesnt work well. Expensive right to treat my tonsilitis inflammation. Sad to say, ordinary ones dont work on me. So disappointing. well i deserved it cos i didnt take care of myself thru' out the months. Late nights, lack of rest and sleep, exams preparation, lack of water and perhaps insufficient exercises accumulated thru' out the months lead to a full bloom of this bad illness on me. Well, thank god i have recovered gradually, my appetite is back and im slowly gaining back weight...oh shit. But it is a good thing im back up again and moving, eating, toking, doing what i want to do. Thank jesus for his blessing.
Well, lots of stuffs happened during 2004, it is hard to describe everything what i have done. The good, the bad stuffs that happened to me etcetc but on due cause, it definitely brought me back sweet gd old memorises which deserved to be safekeep and treasured in my mind or rather in my head.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So basically, it aint nothing much what i have done during 2004 but it is a year i have faced quite a bit of obstacles and conflicts which made me learnt what the correct-n-wrong doings, the lesson out of it and hopefully i can amended myself and change for the better as time goes by.
Now for adjam, it is one bitter-sweet moment on what i gonna say about it. I gonna keep it short and sweet this time. Well, we faced many odds, the conflicts, the miscommunications or rather the lack of communication among the heads, the subcomm-ers, the helpers etc. And perhaps the inexperiences faced by the comm. Well, these are part and parcel of life and of doing/organising stuffs. We took up the challenge and deal with it, solve it, handled it and execute it. Though this adjam faced real budget problems but it was one big challenge (though it was a headache that many changes to the program has to be done many times, it's aint easy but we managed to come out with stuffs to succumb over it and we made it possible imptly) we faced and it was one big challenge we have to deal with it. It is because it aint easy changing our months of preparation and recces within a week or so. It seems impossible but then it is possible if we maintained our heads and deal the challenge in the right direction and right state of mind. If at this point of time, everyone of us give up, it will be losers in the making and it will be a failure and moreover this event was co-collaborated with SIM SMU n NTU. Though fingers had been pointing here n there, we nearly lost our cool and composure (well nonetheless, esp me as a so-called senior among the peeps), but what's the point, will it solve our problems by blaming and shooting words of displeasure here nt here. No, obviously. Well, what i can say in short, we deal-ed it with faith and determination, we get our heads minds and souls together, thought of several solutions and sorted them out and challenged the seemingly impossible. What i can say, we made it, it was a success. Within such low budget, the actual adjam event went thru' smoothly and everyone of us enjoyed ourselves and we managed to execute our activities successful. Well done adjamm-ers, im proud of what we have done despite all odds which we faced, odds that were against us due to many facts. But the fact we have succeed, let's give ourselves a pat and close this chapter of adjam. I myself, seriously, enjoyed adjam. Interacting with the young jc kids really a joy. Disturbing them, suan siaoing them, cocking with them, making them hype up for the activities were some stuffs i myself enjoyed doing as an activity ic / station master. But paiseh to jason and joanna for making u two to walk the trek twice..haha..poor jason. Paiseh to skee and cherling from bearing the mosquitoes attacked at Jelutong Tower and the bad weather. Paiseh to Theophane and louis for accompanying the monkeys at the entrance of rifle range entrance to the trek...haha..i bet u two have a monkey hell of a time over there. Well, thanks for the help for the trekking, without u 6 pple, i think the trek will not be able to take place. But seriously, the jc odacians were real too fast for the trek, they run but i bet cjc odacs fly..haha. And of cos thanks to my partner gary who helped me in at the start of MacRitchie reservoir holding area thru' out the whole sleepless wet n cold night..haha. Of cos, other activities were successful carried out nonetheless, well done peeps. And lastly, i wun forget what happened to me during battle royale in sentosa. I was stacked like a break by the cjc odac guys. I was fooled into taking photo with my juniors from nyjc then kena muai-zhi and dunked by them into the sea. And also SRJC odac who trapped me in the sea and re-dunked me. Well done guys and gals..haha.. And i want to thank my fellow NUS odac pals for not saving me that evening, but standing there laughing. Thanks a lot huh...haha. In short, adjam objectives were more or less met, we made new frens from other unis and of cos the various jc odacs, we show how unite and how close our odac units can be. Thus, adjam closed its chapter on a gd and hight note for everybody involved in it. =)
Wow, i cant imagine i have written quite a lot, actually i was quite lazy to blog so much. Perhaps i will do a gd and long blogging once a while.
Xmas to me was a pathetic one, missed my annual jc class gathering on xmas eve (sorry pals!) due to my illness, missed my family annual xmas gathering at aunt's mary place and missed my gd odac pals xmas gathering cum present exchanging at marche. Well, i hope i can replace what i have missed during xmas 2005...heehee
The java earthquake cum tsunami incident which happened one day after xmas. I was quite shocked and saddened that more than 150,000 pple died due to this castrophobic disaster. Of cos, a small percentage of death cums from signapore. I was really thankful that im lived in singapore, im a singaporean. It is because we are protected by the big country like indonesia (which lies along side the fault lines of the moving earth crust) and malaysia and philipines. Thus, such disasters will be shielded from us. How fortunate we are. However, the innocent deaths were a great shocked and saddening to everyone around the region. No one expected such this would happen with a great force within a short short period of time without any alert warning. Well, no words can describe the emotions of family who lost their loved ones there especially the foreigners who came over to asia from their countries which are so far away for holidays. No words can describe the tragedy which happened. Pictures tell everything, feelings and expression reveal it out. Therefore, i hope God will bless those who survived and those who are yet being found, who have the glimmer of hope to survive under the rubbles or somewhere out there. God bless them with hope of light and the hope of determination and faith to Survive.
Well,i guess im going to end soon, tired liao, it's almost 4am liao and im blogging..hahaha.. Surprising right.
Last issue, many of my frens asked me whether i have a gf or not or whether im attached or not.. The answer is No.
well, i cant control when i will be attached. To be frank, im enjoying what im doing now, of cos i dun want to get a gf for the sake of getting one. Of cos everyone of us likes to be love, everyone of us likes to love somebody, everyone of us likes to express our feelings for that someone we like. But to hastily love is bad choice to make it out just for the sake of having love. The gal i want to win her heart, is the gal i gonna love and like and protect and be together for the rest of my life sincerely. So as the saying goes, let all be natural, let nature takes its own course, hope chances and opportunities comes for me when the time is right, comes for me to make the right choice, comes for me to know that special someone out there (of cos i dunno where..definitely in spore lah) who deserved my sincere love and understandings. Haha, though im not getting younger anymore? isnt 22 or 23 young? but i guess we have many things we have yet to accomplish. Security and stability of ourselves is a must. Yup, not saying i have high expectations, but of cos to me, communication and understanding are one essential factor to a relationship i want to have,not only love itself. And for sure, beauty lies in the eye of the beholder. i bet to differ about having high expectations. Becos i have to consider the fact of myself, am i that good? what i have to offer to the gal that i like (i myself having nothing to offer but sincerity from my heart)? i cannot be selfish for my thoughts at one moment. Of cos there are likings at first look, crushes at heart, infatuation but this is part of life and part of growing up process, part of emotional feelings which none of us can control and forsake it. Thus, it is a win-lose situation for both sides. Sonow, what i can do is to hope God will bless me and let me know and find that special someone out there for me. I believe, with the faith, that special someone will appear. =)
Well to end.....to end my cock but "serious" cock..haha.
Time flies, year 2004 has just ended and close the 22nd chapter on my life during this period. And the year 2005 has just re-opened a new chapter of my life..the 23rd one..pretty soon.
HOpefully this new year will bring new hopes to me, new dreams to come alive, new resolutions to fulfill and new challenges for me to face and upkeep... till then... God bless...
