word-less

is it so difficult to grant me a simple request? if i've reminded you once, and if you forget, its forgivable.. if i've reminded you twice, forgetting can also be forgiven, but if i've told you at least five times, what excuse is there if you forget? that only goes to show how much i mean to you..

if it is indeed so difficult, then just forget about it.. forget that i even said anything

pay day

haha i am so happy to receive an email from motorola that my pay for this month has been credited into my bank account.. for once, i am so looking forward to my pay.. as i have overspent my budget for this month, going diving and buying my diving equipment etc..

now, waiting for the progress package, to be coming in a few days, though its not alot due to the fact where i stay, but at least it can help ease my financial burden for the coming month..

lessons in life..

i just quarrelled with my mum (quite fiercely), over very trivial issues AGAIN.. and she always says, "i know what's best for you, so you better shut up and stop arguing.."

does she really know what's best for me? you mean i can't tell what's best for myself at the age of 23+? granted that parents also want the best for their kids, but can't they leave their kids to make their own decision sometimes? don't parents allow their kids once in awhile to make mistakes, so in the course of doing so, learn a valuable lesson, and then can remember it for life?

i do not want to forever live under the protective umbrella of my parents, for some day, the very very sad truth is, i know that they will no longer be around.. and by then, if i do not learn how to stand on my own 2 feet properly, i would basically self destruct in this cruel and unfeeling world..

i want to be independent!

perfect girl

even after nearly 3 years, she's still my perfect girl.. there's nothing more i could ever ask for, and i love her just the way she is (though she is mischievious at times) =p

infidelity??

on the first day of IA, i got to know this guy A (whom i always do work with for my supervisor and his supervisor), and this girl B.. and all of us knows that girl B has a boyfriend of about 2 years, and he also happens to be from the same JC as me (he's now in germany for IA)..

over the past few weeks, guy A and girl B's passion for each other seem to have overgrown to the stage where they cannot seem to keep their hands of each other.. over the past few days, while walking to go for lunch or any other time i see them alone.. i've seen them holding hands for brief moments, feeding each other during lunch.. guy A holding girl B's waist like playing a fool and girl B sitting on guy A's lap..

what do you make out of this? arghh.. sometimes seeing all these gives me a real eyesore.. when i asked girl B about her boyfriend, she say they're still happily together.. wishful thinking on her part? most probably.. wait till her boyfriend knows what she's doing behind his back.. sometimes i feel like telling her boyfriend about her 'infidelity' but.. its none of my business.. so its best i shut up if not i may shoot myself in the foot instead..

nevertheless, they still both my good friends, and i wish god will grant them the serenity and courage to face whatever things they have ahead of them, be it for good, or bad..

great diving!!

over the weekend, i went to pulau aur for my rescue divers course.. i really enjoyed myself with instructor azman, who was always full of crap with divemaster irwan.. also not to forget peipei, who always look out for me whether in the water or on land.. =p

visibility was great and out of the 6 dives i did, i saw hawksbill and cuttlefish on 3 different occassions.. and hawksbill and cuttlefish are rare sights in perhentian, where i usually dive..

on the last dive before heading back for singapore, we fed the fishes with oranges and bread.. oranges were not so well like by most fishes, but they loved the bread!! haha..

i hope to do the divemasters course soon, so that i can share the beautiful underwater world with others.. i simply love diving.. and i'm hooked on it =p

bintan was great!!

the trip to bintan was great! quality time spent with my family and peipei, to enjoy lazing around and chat over meal etc.

the beach near the resort reminded me of phuket's patong beach.. it had a shallow coastline.. even after swimming 200m out to sea, you still could stand on your 2 feet.. the waves were great too! my brother, peipei and myself had great fun 'challenging' the waves.. i also played beach soccer with my brother, one-on-one.. where my lungs nearly bursted because it was really tiring..

the drawback is that everything in bintan is quite expensive.. in the resort, there's only a single restaurant serving cuisine, and them being the monopoly, obviously prices were steep.. souvenirs were no better off either, a simple hair clip costing at least 5 times the price of a simple one found here locally.. however, the most expensive part of my trip was not so much of meal costs or souvenirs but MAHJONG! haha.. yeap we brought a mahjong set over and played 6 rounds of mahjong in total..

looking forward to more trips.. =p
