its been a long while since i've talked about anything other than army really. and having watched the manchester derby last night, i think i've to talk about how awesome a player rafael da silva is.
this is rafael da silva. honestly speaking i think that even at the age of 18, he's good enough to call the right back position his own at the moment. gary neville might as well just retire now and brown should be contented with a spot on the bench if the showing against man city counted for anything.
its been a rollercoaster lately. there are ups and downs most definitely. most of all, it has been confusing. mmm, yes, confusing.
i thought sat was a pretty fulfilling day. met up with clement, nickolas and kent for lunch and a movie. it was great catching up with them. even though we spent only 9 weeks of our lives together in the same bunk, in the same jungles etc, i think those 9 weeks were pretty awesome and defining, if that makes any sense. city of ember wasn't really that good.
body of lies was good. i think di caprio has shed off his pretty boy image effectively. his acting's definitely note-worthy. that i caught with dom, keith and g.
sat was good.
but we all have ups and downs.
you never know when things can come crashing down.
im blabbering. i don't really know what i'm saying.

and so, yet another milestone has been reached in life. 6 months and counting into national service and my trainee phase of life is over.
while some of you out there might not actually believe it but i actually managed to become platoon best for my course. and i'm not afraid to say that i'm immensely proud of myself. its more of personal pride more than the showing off kind if you know what i mean.
if you've been following the very insignificant sideshow on this blog that is my life story you must notice that in recent years, failure has been more than a faithful companion to me. we kind of got attached following the o's in 2005.
this is probably the first time in a long while where i worked hard for something and got it. and it feels good.
what made it feel so good? only one thing. knowing you worked hard and it actually MATTERED.

ignore the mind-blowingly hot leighton meester (if that is even possible) and you will see how classy mr chuck bass is.
sheer class. undoubtedly my favourite character on the show.
after S and B of course.

that was just a dream,
try, cry, why try.
hauntingly beautiful. old it may be, but nonetheless.

the end is near. the end of my trainee days is coming! just one more month to passing out and i'm done with trainee life. life's tough when you're at the bottom of the food chain and seriously, its more of a struggle more than anything else down there. but i'm starting to see the proverbial light at the end of the tunnel.
fascinating stuff this singapore grand prix business. i was quite excited and felt a tinge of national pride when i saw the singapore grand prix on teevee. i must say it is quite a spectacle. watching those gorgeous f1 racing cars flying by on the very roads we travel on is quite something. more than that, it made me have a sudden realization about how many things i should be thankful for. if you wonder how they link up, i say it beats the hell out of me too.
incoherent thoughts i say.
in other news, i welcome back my brother from another mother who is coming back from the dense jungles of brunei. now i have someone to hang out with again on weekends.
