Rich man's illness.

Do you know that diabetes is A.K.A the "rich man's disease"? Why is this so. In the past, when new immigrants toiled and slogged hard in order to survive. Sometimes, some of them make the better of their abilities and got well off. Eventually, they would realised that they can now afford luxurious clothes, house, car and food. Good meat and nice deserts will be their meals. In time to come, actually very soon, diabetes will strike.

Devil in disguise.

After exams; after toiling and slogging hard for the Advanced levels examination, it was the time that our efferts paid off. We took the examinations and all of us breath our sigh of relief. Soon after, comes the break. What shall we do? what is there to be done? Am i still able to do it after such a long time, because i spent all my time studying?

Devil in dusguise

Sometimes too good a deal sounds good when one is longing for it. Like in my case: the break after examinations. But now i am spending my time quite aimlessly. I got not enough sleep in the night because the day is not productive; it does not make me exhausted. Come next day, i woke up, lertargic, because i got interupted sleep. Then i cannot spend the daytime properly or do the thing that i longed to do but is strenuous because i have got no adequate rest. I am then tired but not fatigue enough. So the cycle repeats itself.

The first hunt might have satisfy man initially, but man is, after all, greedy.

Tribal Dance

Hunt.. CLEAR! We made our kill!! Finally, we ended the A Levels. It does call for a celebration. Me and my clique had a lot of plans. Like extend our passport validity, going to M'sia for a 1day trip, most importantly, training for our IPPT, or NAPTFA. this is important, because i want to avoid the 6weeks PTP. Then i can spend more time with my family and friends. Most probaly i will help to give Student Fellowship's notice board a makeover.

Straight away after my last paper 25th Novenber, which was Biology Paper 1, Multiple Choice Questions Paper, i went home straight to wait. I waited for Russell and Dean. Russell went for his regular gymnasium workout; he is working hard (after A levels) to shape up and tone up for his modelling job. Dean was still at home, idling, waiting, too, but, for his last paper to commence: Physics Paper 5 Design Paper. Wait lasted for about 5 hours. I went to DaDa Hair Studio, to our all time favourite professional hair stylist, Steven, right Russell, right Dean? I went there at 3pm. Had a slight colouring, streaks added. Then the couple arrived when my hair was being washed. Russell got a cut and a lot of advices on hairstyling techniques to get a natural look. Dean got a hilight and a lot of chit-chatsss. I got a cut too. Sorry Dawn, we were late because we are vain, actually we just wanted to look good, just to meet such a nice, prettty, cute, dear lady, A.K.A. you.

My sisiter also went to the movie with us, because i told her we will be watching <>. Sorry again, Dawn, i made you buy the tickets. And, Aloysius, where are you after A levels, not coming with us to watch movie? Mugging again? Mugging game manuals? I bet so. He bought his second television-video-game console, the XboX the evening straight after his Physics Paper5. In the end, we, which included Ann Ann(my sister) , Daniel Loke, Dawn Low, Dean Wee, Russell Wang and myself, watched <> because tickets for <> was sold out. I think one must very objective and not expect anything much from this production to actually enjoy it. I knew not a lot of people liked that show. It some sort or rather looked like the typical Christmas Show. I must compliment on the superb cinematography, and excellent computer generated graphics.

The time after the show was quite interesting. Some very hilarious things happened while Dean, Russell and me was queueing for our food. Hope we would have the again, make it a double, with extra ingredients the next time, haha! All along Dawn could catch up with our senseless conversations, but refuses to comment, she actually tried to ignore us. Only my sister play along wiht us, and carry on some senseless talk with us. All lost is Daniel. 20, 25, 30 ,35 does not refer to vital statistics of a lady. Dawn, you must be more observant. The rose only caught my eye while we were walking along the corridor of Le Meridien Hotel. Yes, just there, right after Daniel bought his drink. Hope you like it, because i did not tell Dean whcih colour to get. Sorry one more, that i shocked with the flower. You looked cute when you are in awe. Oh, you looked good without tying your hair. If you want some real good hair styling services, i can give you a recommendation.

Today is 26th November i went to extend the validity of my passport at Tampines SAFRA with Aloysius and Dean. My handphone's battery went dead. Fortunately, i miraculously met Russell, and sucessfully met up with both Aloysius and Dean, with the help of Russell's phone. The three of us went to Changi Airport to send Aloysius's father off, and had each a cup of Coffee Bean's ice blended coffee. We went to the staff canteen and had a chat about our families, their work, and our future.

Next destination: Singapore Expo. The fair there was quite the same as other computer fairs. The usual good deals everywhere, leaflets everywhere and all stranger high-tech gadgets everywhere. It is all the same every year because there are always new things every year. Irony. At the end of the day, i almost took the right bus from the wrong side, all thanks to Aloysius and Dean. But being the usual cautious me, i asked the bus captain which direction the bus was heading. But i did gave Aloysius the wrong impression that i wanted to travel in that supposedly wrong direction.

Tribal Dance will not last forever. Once the food finished, or even it finishes, we have got to start hunting again. We must start to plan on strategies to successfully take down the next hunt. National Service and University. Life is a cycle. That why it was and still is known as a life cycle.

Interval...



Hmmmm... it's has been quite a while. Hi, eternity ev(e)n Before Christ, it's me again, typing into you. The hunting season has begun, it is time to get serious. And I can conclude that man, in nature are very easily affected by his environment and the people around. Still, quite a few of my friends are still in a very "relaxed mode", somehow or rather, no matter how determined i am initially, i will slacken at the end of the day. Althouh i did qutite a substantial amount of work, i felt that i could actually do more. Then there are friends who are quite negative, also like the J1s, the whole examination is not over yet, he has already gone to look for althernatives, suce as ,other schools: MIDS, SIM etc. , right, Physius? At the very end, the accumulated effect is quite great, just liek the EPSP's spatial and temporial summation (biological terms), I am being affected to quite a large extent.

I have been praying to God about man, about us. Telling him about Student Fellowship, Montfort school, Meridain Junior College and my Family. These are the places where i can associate my life with. SF should be growing, i hope to see that, WE hope to see that, don't we? Long time no see Montfort friends, we are all going to serve the country soon, so see you peeps soon. Then for MJC, there are a lot of people that I have told him about. Like My "few cliques", the J1 friends, and Dawn. Sigh. Later i might be praying to God, asking Him for a sign.

Okay! Freedom is 14 days away. Fight on okay guys? Especially those free&relac&easy freinds and the negetive friend/s. (",)
