welcoming you with a manly handshake

THE OWNER

blogging serves as a memory machine that helped document the chronicles of the owner's life since 2005.

the owner has all rights to express opinions on this site and believes that no one should judge, comment and condemned because everyone have different perceptions of things around them.

running have always been and always will be the owner's favourite sport. in the past one year, the owner took up fencing, windsurfing and mountaineering to better help strengthen the body and mind. other sports that the owner loves are swimming, badminton, table tennis, xcountry, track and field, trekking, snorkelling, scuba diving, field hockey, biking, rugby. the sky is not the limit.

the owner has always been fascinated with music and believes that it is the universal language that gets across any barrier. all time favourite genres includes pop rock, punk rock, classical, flamenco and acoustic being the current one. guitar, the chosen instrument, has been with the owner since may 2007. all-things-guitar are self-taught, as the internet is a wonderful source of learning.

the love for travelling, the owner believes, has been nearly-explicitly written down on this blog. "the love for travelling" is actually an understatement, for the owner live to travel. the places that the owner have been to, although not that many yet, are pieces of puzzles that have taken their place in the owner's heart and soul and words are certainly incomparable with actual experiences.

photography has since played a major part in documenting the owner's travel experiences. thanks to the invention of cameras, the ability to capture emotions and actions of people and the awe of mother nature are made possible. a picture, and may the owner say a good one, paints a zeallion words. and that is the beauty of photography.

cny is coming up and vday is round the corner. i foresee many zombies combing src meeting the day the roses arrive. really, the thought of goin msia two weeks from now kinda wipe out what i wanted to type. excited la!

a clue of what choon rboy huan and i will be doing is...the same as last yr? plus a gist of extra fun! sumptuous food! scenic hike! and watever comes~ i cant wait!

the past week have been meaningful.

had been swimming/gyming/++ so alive~ if you haven been out there exercising, DONT be such a nag, complaining every part of your body. my logic is simple; exercise or shut up. i realise theres a trend of reasons when asking friends out for exercise. enough. i conclude, ask club mates instead (least they wont let u down).

on 10, 11 and 17, i volunteered myself for red cross's proj rice. aside from the cca pts and free tee, i learnt that asking people to donate a cup of rice isnt easy and the publicising effort before the event...tedious. althou been assigned to grps and splitting the job, knocking on every door + explaining the event over a trillion times takes a whole lot of determination and encouragement! no kiddin' being a senior to those bbss kids who helped bcos of cip hrs (very typical), we cant slack off ourselves! at the end of every door, i could have given up but smth meaningful dragged me thru. i realise a huge bunch of ah mas and ah gongs were gonna benefit from this proj.

on 17, skipped trg for the collection of rice! was appointed area ic (tot i nv will) and am glad i was able to manage those pesty 8 students. the two gals were so fun to be with la! they were constantly teaseing each other. brought bk memories. for the first time, i realise ive grown. we manage to comb 9 blocks in three and a half hrs. the gals show a geat deal of endurance. 3 of us completed an extra block and the guys another before setting off to bbss for packing. boy, it was exhausting!

i felt beside from learning stuffs on the mountain, such proj could bring out smth meaningful only to those whom experienced it. *piss* we got to see the many faces of singaporeans.

...at the end of the day, i brought smiles to many people; the one who donated and the one receiving (:

organising trips isnt as easy as i thought it would and chiong-ing a business within 1 week is really crazy (im NOT goin to code anything for a while). what business?
