Slightly older than a 1/4 of a century.
Yesterday is the incorrigible R4's birthday.
Wanted to plan a surprise party for him but somehow my plans fall thru coz his batch boys decided to hold their monthly batch boy dinner on the same day.
The guys had decided to eat at those BBQ steamboat thingy at Marina South .
*spirit dampened*
So in the end R4's birthday is so predictable that i feel that i should've made a stand (as to the 2 of us celebrate) for it in the first place so that i can at least create something memorable for him.
Lighting up.
Happy Birthday R4!
"Its my Bday!"
Anyway, what done cannot be undone.
After the dinner, they did the predictable (again) and the whole jing gang decided to celebrate at Devils .
Geez. Cheesy Place.
We had initially agreed to having his free Birthday icecream from swensen and also to get him his favorite black forest cake after this dinner.
Therefore I was kinda pissed and disappointed so i said that i'll pass the devils part.
But he went. Out of obligation. To his batch boys.
So at 12am exactly, i send him an sms:
"Your birthday is officially over and my only regret is i didn't managed to get a black forest cake for you and spend our time together meaningfully instead of fullfilling obligations."
In which he replied:
"hiya."
Whats a Hiya? What does Hiya meant?
Whatever.
I put the phone to charge and off to slumberland i go.....
After which, i woke up at 5am, called him but he didn't pick up. He came back shortly after looking kinda intoxicated and crawled into bed. I then stradegically placed all the furkids inbetween us on the bed. Can't stand the fact that he didn't pick up my call hence making me worry and his stupid intoxicated state. He is infact still in him dreamland now. bahhhhhh......

So Near Yet So Far.
Did the IPPT today.
All my stations were 5 points but i knew deep in my heart that my 2.4km run timing sure cannot make it to GOLD standard.
But today as i ran, the feeling is different.
The pace.
The environment.
The bounce from my Air Pegasus.
Though i am the last in the group ( usually is the last) i can still see Chris Tan though he is kinda far away. Felt kinda encouraged coz usually i can't see any of them!
Disclamier: Not that i am freaking slow but my team mates all run freaking fast. Wahahahahahah.
Even uncle chan got off his safety vehicle and ran with me a bit and ask me not to give up and "open up your pace".
*huff**puff**huff**puff*
Then when i reach the last 200m, i sprinted like there is a great LV sale where everything is going at $1.99!
And when i reached the ending point.
"13:10"
*dazed*
San-d: Wat??? My timing is 13:10?
Actually was feeling a bit disappointed that i was about 30 secs away from the GOLD timing of clocking below 12:45.
Nothing much i can do anyway.
However when i told krissy about my timing.....
San-d: *still huffing away* Sigh, i thought i can shave off some time to get gold.
Krissy: Whats your timing?
San-d: I miss my 30 secs la. My stupid timing is 13:10.
Krissy: *eye open wide* You didn't miss by 30 secs.
San-d: *raised one eyebrow* Huh?
Krissy: You missed by 10 secs. You forgot you now CAT Y arh?
San-d: * head banging on the tree nearby*ARRGGhhhhh!!!
*******
Really cannot believe it. Missed by freaking 10 secs.
I really forgot that 25 is CAT Y already. Still thinking about Cat X's timing.
Now i lagi sad. The same kinda feeling felt when i failed airborne selections.
A mere 10 secs.
Sigh~~~

L.M.A. (Lazy Monday Afternoon)
Morning was powerpacked as we did our IPPT Trial and running in the sun is a killer.
Rest of the day was kinda busy with our usual admin and prep.
When the end of the work day approaches, the team decided to unwind and i've decided to be a paparazzi wannabe and snap pics of everyone waiting to go home.
Decided to relax on our new coach and chill with 8 days. Ignore Farmboy. He just wanna be in the pic. Heh heh.
Krissy the taitai wannabe is practising her cross stitching skills.
Jameson taking 40 winks.
*sings* Jack and Chris went up the hill... to read a copy of new paper.....
"welcome to Chatzone, for english, please press one....."
Jo and farmboy checking out the latest news on the new paper and Farmboy couldn't believe his eyes when he saw the following ad.
Farmboy: Wtf! Check out the 2 cuckoos on the ad! I bet you anyone in our office looks better than them man! *puiiiii*
Wahahahahaha.
Have to agree with Farmboy though. Those guys look like CRAP!
And I've decided that her name would be LOUISE.
Farmboy: Why Louise?
San-d: After my fav Louis Vuitton.
Chris : Isn't Louis a guy name?
San-d: I'll girlyize it by adding an "e" la. Then become Louise.
Rest of the guys: .........................

East coast - Esplanade - Tanjong Pagar Railway Station - Sentosa - Tiong Bahru- Zion Road- Plaza Sing - Victoria Street- Geylang - East Coast.
This is the places we clocked when we went for the night cycling thingy.
I simply cannot believed that i managed to cycle to all these place.
Drive? Yes, of course.
Cycle? *raise eyebrows*
The trip was damn fun and i enjoyed myself tremendously. And the fact that R4 finally decided to do some sports (which is to join me instead of playong conquer) makes my day (night).
Krissy and me enjoying a drink at the railway pit stop.
R4 trying to be funny and farmboy the "ghost" trying to disappear before the photo is taken.
A very BLUE Krissy at Palawan Beach.
A very BLUE me too.
As usual. R4 never takes a proper picture.
There are more pictures but it is at Krissy's digicam.
We ended at around 5 am and more of us are like zooonnnnkkkeeddd out. Really ZONKED.
Then those who rented bikes at East Coast gotta wait till 8am for the bike shop to be open.
*gasp*
Then R4, Farmboy, Jo , Jameson and me waited . When i got home, had a good bath and concussed till 5pm!!!
Hahahahhahaa.
After which , a phone call from avia woke me and i'm supposed to go Glenda's BBQ!
Washed up, rushed down.
Was feeling so hungry, i ate and i ate till my tummy nearly exploded.
BB Rayner and me! Isn't he a Darling? :op
Now i am simply pooped.
So tired.
*yawnz*

会有那么一天
一九四三
世界大战
阿嬷年轻的时候 爷爷爱他那么多 他们感情很深
但是爷爷 身负重任
就在离乡的那夜给了阿嬷一个吻 轻声说到
我要离去
别再哭泣
不要伤心
请你相信我
要等待 我的爱
陪你永不离开
因为会有那么一天 我们牵着手在草原
听鸟儿歌唱的声音
听我说声 我爱你
夕阳西下
鸟儿回家
阿嬷躺 在病床上 呼吸有一点散漫
眼神却很温柔
看着爷爷 湿透的眼
握着他粗糙的手
阿嬷的泪水开始流 轻声说道
我要离去
别再哭泣
不要伤心
请你相信我
要等待 我的爱
陪你永不离开
因为会有那么一天
我们牵着手在草原
听鸟儿歌唱的声音
听我说声 我爱你
Kebeen told me about this song.
Asked me if i have it or not.
I don't listen to JJ Lin's song so obviously don't have.
The he asked me if i wanted the Mp3, i go "sure. why not."
And when i listen to it.
I can't believe that someone wrote such a touching song.
I guess most of us can relate to this song.
Liked the last part esp. Wonder if i would have love that real, that intense and that happily ever after....
*looks at R4*
Playing his Constantine PC game.
Sigh.

a lot like love.
Supposed to go liquid room to meet up with the girls.
When i called R4 to let him know that i am going out, i found out that silly R4 got drunk at his dept BBQ.
Hence, no liquid room and the only form of liquid i get in contact with is R4's puke.
*winced nose* Ewwwweeeeewwww....
Ser suggested that i throw him into the bathoom and leave him there for the night. (and also to avoid unfortunate incidents like the peeing on the laptop incident)
Felt tempted.
But when i see him so wasted, i just can't bring myself to do it.
So i cleaned him up and tuck him to bed. All the time he's mumbling sorry to me and sorry that he made me angry.
Hahahahahahahahhaaaaaa. He is such a big Bb.
But when he wakes up tomorrow, it'll be a different story. He'll deny everything and be his macho facho self.
Thats why i blog this down.
To rememeber that at moments like this, its a lot like love.

What goes up must come down.
Went Ubin today for a cycling/cohesive session with my Team Guys.
The last time i've been to Ubin was when i was 16 for my NPCC camp and that means its been 10 years since i last step foot into Ubin.
All of us didn't know what to expect actually. Thought it is just some recreational cycling a la East Coast type.
We were wrong.
Encik Maz and Enick Tim were hard core bikers and bought us through some off road biking.
Through muddy grounds, clay-like mud, bash through and all.
Which makes me think that maybe it is better to wear no 4 to come and cycle. Heh heh more combat.
Not to mention the up hill and down hill. And what ever route we went, sometimes we must back track, i.e : the super shiok downhill ride is the killer uphill climb.
Hahahhahahaha.
Had many funny and interesting moments.
1. All of us (Junior ones) were listening to MP3. Hence you can hear us biking and singing along the way.
2. Total of 2 falls. (Poor krissy, being nice wanted to take a nice pic of us, but while taking out her camera while cycling, she pressed the front brake and flipped. )
3. My "WahhhhhARRGGGHHHHHHHHHelpppppppp" echoing downhill when i lose control of my bike. Thank God i didn't fall or crush into anyone.
4. The photo taking session at the Quarry.
5. Saw a cute doggy with Mohawk Furstyle and Farmboy being a kind soul, fed her his ONLY egg mayo sandwich.
6. Enick Maz and Encik Tim cycled from woodlands to changi to ubin and back from changi to woodlands !!!
7. Came to a conclusion that must rent good bike. Farmboy's seat fell off, Jameson's handle went inwards and a lot of us have aching butts.
8.Farmboy (alex) wore a street wear like esemble(a black t-shirt, berms, his adidas shoe ) and i couldn't help but to ask him.
San-d: Why you wear black t shirt? Gonna be freaking hot later.
Farmboy: I know, but i can't find my white t-shirt.
San-d: Where got people wear like this go cycling one.
Farmboy: Hey! Last time i wear like that go cycling one hor!!
San-d: Let me guess, you ride a stunt bike (e.g GT kind) last time?
Farmboy: How you know?
San-d: ...................... *speechless*
Finally i understand why he wear like this already.
But.........
We are mountain biking!! Not Stunt Biking??!!!
9. The chilling out session with a chilled coke after the biking session. Euphoria.
10. Being a Taitai wannabe: I hate getting muddy and all when i am not in my No. 4 ( in which i will morph into my green monster mode.) and i also slapped on losta sunblock and insect repellent. The end verdict: No bites, no sunburn but muddy is inevitable and my poor fuschia pink NIKE rift ~~Sigh.
In conclusion: This cohesive session RAWKS! Can't wait for the other session. Hopefully it is aircon based like bowling?
hiakhiakhiakhiakhiak*sniggers*

Open the Porte.
R4 and i could never come to an agreement when it comes to cars.
I like cars like SMART, Peugoet 206cc, Mini Cooper, Volkswagon, Celica etc. Those cars that are quirky, fun and one of a kind.
R4 like cars that can be Mod. Cars like Honda Fit ( basically Japanese cars). That he can play with the sound . Or Big cars like Airtrek Turbo (must emphasize the TURBO), JEEP, Land Rover etc etc.
But as we are not earning big bucks, we are currently driving a Toyota Corolla.
This Black boy has been with us since Nov 02.
Black Boy had gone through a lot.
Been our wedding car(love him to bits), off road car(when go onto the muddy tracks), racing car(on the expressway) and also dirty car.
Heh heh heh.
But black boy had been traumatised by us (refer to top) pretty badly. After researching the market, R4 and i decided that it is time to let black boy go.
But before that, we need to find another car that can replace black boy.
Hence the R4/San-d "i don't know what car you want." saga begins.
Decided to go to the Auto mart today after work to check it out.
We parked black boy at the 7th floor. Took a lift down to the 6th floor. We were at the 3rd shop when we saw her.
Why 'her"?
Check her out.
Isn't she a beauty? Anyway her name is Turquoise.
R4 like her for her space, her coolness and that sliding door.
I like her for her color! Love at 1st sight. Heh heh . Also the way she is designed, the interior, the way it is or can be configured to put things.
And i love the fact that finally R4 and I like the same car!
We went into the shop. Got her specs and price. And reported to Papa Ong.
Now waiting for approval.
If we get the nod,
Bye bye Black Boy and Hello Turquoise Ger.

Airle cut mao mao.
Before.

Airle cut mao mao.
Before.
After.
The story being R4 being fed up of me complaining about Airle being messy and all, insisted that she to be shaven down (crew cut) so that the next time to the groomer's will be at least 6 months later.
And Poor Airle is suffering from Altered Image Disturbance.
Someone please call SPCA to come and catch R4 for causing undue stress to my Bb Airle.
And FYI, R4 hair is just as short.
Before.
After. (Taken while he is asleep)
Wahahahahhahaha. :op

Kids say the DARNEST things.
Can't believed it happened to me AGAIN.
Today, some kids mistook me as someone from N.C.C again.
Aiyo yo yo yo * shakes head...*
Part 1:
I was walking towards Courts (the store not the place with a judge) when i passed by a computer/ games shop that leaves their X-Box console out for people to try.
There are 3 school boys, abt 15-16 yrs old (as they are still in their school unifrom with LONG pants hence upper secondary level), 2 were glancing at my direction while 1 was still absorbed in his game.
As i walked pass them, one of them started singing.
Brat 1: *sings* Everywhere we go-o-o-o-ooooh..., people wanna know-o-o-o-h....
The other one join in.
Brat 2: *sings* Who we are , where we come from , so we tell them, we are the N.C.C.....
I immediately stopped and turn and stared HARD at them.
I regconised the cheer the moment they sung it as i was from a uniformed group in secondary school before and this is one of those uniformed group cheer.
I stared at them for a good 10 secs (cos i was thinking should i go over and tell them off ) before deciding to cool it as i was wearing my uniform. Don't want to create a ruckus.
Brat 2 upon seeing me staring at them, tug his friend's sleeves telling him...
Brat 2: Oei, don't sing liao, she not N.C.C. one.
Brat 1: Huh? ( as he glanced over)
I looked at them without battling my eyelids .
All 3 pretended to be VERY into the game.
Hahahahahahhaha.
Stupid Bratz.
Part 2:
After having my dinner, i walked pass this boy (abt 6 yrs old) sitting outside the barber waiting for whom i presume is his dad.
He looked at me with this surprised look and said as he turned his head never losing sight of me,
Barber Boy: *very loudly* ARMY-eeeee WHERE GOT GIRL ONE?????
And he was pointing at me when he said that too.
People at the barber turned to look at me.
Arrggghhh....
I looked at R4. *embarassed*
R4: Next time please huh, don't wear uniform when we go out ok.
Kids. Sighz.

Missed the good ol' days.
Though Qing Ming festival is this coming week, my family decided to go pray on sunday, which is today.
This year is a bit different.
I get to be the designated driver to ferry them around.
Actually i volunteered without hesitating.
Reason? I cannot take it if they go in my brother's van. Hehhehhehehehehhee
Call me a sucker for speed, and to go to the bright hill thingy place at 60-70km/h (not to metion the jam.), i will go crazy.
Noticed that as the years go by, lesser and lesser people turn up for the praying session. Even grandma ( Papi's side) is too ill to travel to pray.
Sighz.
Actually hearing the updates regarding the Wong family's saga, i feel that things are so different.
But oh well, time wait for no man and people change.
That's the reality of life.
Heard that Fat Boy Jake told Papi to shut up after Papi told him to stop shouting at Auntie Lisa at the coffeeshop ( apparently they had a misunderstanding).
Can't believe the FBJ did that.
And if i am there, i will slap that FBJ into outer space for shouting at my Papi. (no one gets to do that except garlic and me!!! Its over previledge as his kids!!! Joking. Hehheh)
And FBJ is lucky that Papi never crack his jaw. (Papi's punch packed with power, don't play play.)
Anyway, Auntie Lisa say it is ok to let FBJ to rant on and we to keep quiet, her rationale being that it is embarassing enough for her that FBJ is ranting in the public, we don't wanna stoop as low as his level . Auntie Susie says that let him go on, explain to him later when things cooled down and he'll understand.
I don't agree.
I think that by not nipping him at the bud ( which is to slap some sense into him), he will go on to think that it is ok to create a ruckus and the seniors by keeping quiet is percieved by him as they are scared of him. Explain things to him when he cool down? Why not when you murder someone, you explain to him later that it is wrong and he apologise and things will be as before.
HARROW! Wait up the farking idea.
In the 1st place, he should not be doing it in the 1st place! You do not shout in the public at your auntie/godma watever. This is basic manners. Where is the basic manners in the 1st place? That is ULTIMATE BRATTY behavior. And FBJ is 19 year old young man! He is not a 19 mth old toddler.
Geez.
Maybe 6 years of SAF changed me.
Enough of this FBJ Mambo Jambo.
Though my family is not perfect and it may be dysfunctional at times, but at least Papi and Mummy Helen taught Garlic and i proper values.
And it can be evident in the things we do now.

Dragonballs for US$15.99.
Was surfing as usual when i just happened to glanced at R4's direction.
Thought that he was as usual playing his conquer online when i saw the screen at Paypal.com.
*Puzzled*
San-d: What you buy need to pay by paypal? You buy bme t shirts again huh.
R4: Er... no la... er.... * tries to minimise the screen*
San-d: *feeling he up to no good* What you buy??!!!
R4: I...er.. buy some conquer things.
San-d: What you buy!!!!! SHOW MEEEEE!!!! *wails*
I glanced at the screen and saw he just paid US$15.99 for 5 Dragonballs. (to be used in his online game).
I couldn't believe my eyes.
R4, of all people, would pay US$15.99 for something that doesn't exsist??
San-d: You buy this for what?? *sheirking away and wondering should i slap his head to wake up his idea*
R4: I want to sell on the market.
San-d: To earn cash?
R4: No la, sell in the conquer market, 1 dragonball can sell for 5 million dollars, then when i get 25 million, i can buy the sword i want.
I nearly fainted.
San-d: I tell you, i feel like using US$15.99 to go Pasar Malam and buy the "xiao li fei dao" knife and 'chiam' (hokkien for poke) you. What the fark you buy this for??? I though you play play the game only ? Why you so serious? Spend real money some more?? Argghhhhh...!!!
R4: No la, I want to ask Daniel if he want to share with me.
San-d: You buy nonsense not stupid enough, you want ask people share with you?? Wahhhh....
R4: You also always anyhow buy things mah... and.. *cuts him off mid-sentence *
San-d: I know i alway anyhow buy things but at least the things are real! Can feel... can hold!
R4: Aiyah... you don't understand one la.
I really don't. I think he is really obsessed with this conquer shit. And for the stingy R4 to spend US$15.99 (about SGD$30) on 5 Virtual dragonballs.... i think something is very wrong.
It must be the curse of the conquer online.
*Thinking*Maybe i should just uninstall the game.....
*Thinks even harder* Maybe i should just uninstall the game and go change his password for his account so that even if he download back the game, he can't assess his character.
muahahahahaha * evil laugh*
And see if he go bonkers or have withdrawal symptoms.
:op

Dogs' Letters to God
Chanced upon this....
Dear God, Why do humans smell the flowers, but seldom, if ever, smell one another? Where are their priorities?
Dear God, When we get to heaven can we sit on your couch? Or is it the same old story?
Dear God, Why are there cars named after the jaguar, the cougar, the mustang,The colt, the stingray and the rabbit, but not ONE named for a dog?
How often do you see a cougar riding around?
We dogs love a nice ride!
Would it be so hard to rename the Chrysler Eagle the Chrysler Beagle?
Dear God, If a dog barks his head off in the forest and no human hears him, is he still a bad dog?
Dear God, If we come back as humans, is that good, or bad?
Dear God, More meatballs, less spaghetti, please.
Dear God, When we get to the Pearly Gates, do we have to shake hands to get in?
Dear God, Are there dogs on other planets or are we alone? I have been howling at the moon and stars for a long time, but all I ever hear back is the Schnauzer across the street.
Dear God, Are there mailmen in Heaven? If there are, will I have to apologize?
Dear God, We dogs can understand human verbal instructions, hand signals, whistles, horns, clickers, beepers, scent ID's, electromagnetic energy fields, and Frisbee flight paths. What do humans understand?
Dear God, May I have my testicles back?
This is totally wicked! Muhahahahahahahahahahahaha :op

I am 25 going on 16??!!!
I was at the petrol station today and i saw that there is this coffee bean thingy. Thinking of getting a drink, i walked over there and ordered myself an Iced Chocolate.
Barista: *looks at me* Yes?
San-d: One Iced Chocolate with Whipped cream please, thanks.
Barista: The iced chocolate comes with whipped cream.
San-d:*wondering why must she be so specific* Ok thanks.
Barista: What size do you want?
San-d: Can i have a large please?
Barista: *punches order in* That would be $2.60
At this point of time i was very puzzled as the signage puts that the large iced chocolate is $3.30.
San-d: Eh.. sorry?
Barista: Yes? *looks impatient*
San-d: How much is it?
Barista: It's $2.60.
I was like ok since it is $2.60 then i might as well pay right ? *cheapo me alert* Hehehehheh
After i paid her, she told me to come back later as she need to prepare the drink. I went over the store counter to pay for my petrol and popped back to collect my drink.
The Drink Is On The Table. *sniggers* (private joke- Hehehehheheheh :op)
After collecting my drink , i waited for the barista to get my reciept as i was curious why was it $2.60. Maybe she keyed the wrong drink? Hmmmm...
Barista: Yes? (Her 3rd yes?!! So much for quality customer service.)
San-d: Can i have the reciept?
Barista: *starts to look for the reciept....and after 15 secs, shove a piece of paper to me*
Was kinda put off by her attitude. Anyway, she looked like those 18 yr old doing part time kinda girl so tell myself not to be so bothered by her.
When i looked at the reciept, i knew why the drink was so cheap.
This Hack-care barista gave me a 20% discount on my drink.
Great right?
Not when she gave me a student's special discount of 20% off all beverages (somemore need to produce student card).
Apparently, she thought i was one of the school children from the opposite secondary school.
Why?
Coz I was wearing my uniform.
And why i get the discount even though i was wearing my ARMY uniform?
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Coz she thought i was from the National Cadet Corps (N.C.C) from the secondary school.
Whahahahahhahah *pengz*
Actually, she made the assumption as there were 2 N.C.C kids that were buying beverages before me and she must've thought i was their friend.
Sigh.
Hello, there are so much difference in our uniforms!!
1st: There is no NCC ampulet on my shoulder.
2nd: There are no school tag sewn on my uniform sleeves.
3rd: 16 year old can pump petrol and drive car mah???
Don't know to be happy or sad, kinda mixed feelings.
Happy coz this proves i look young!! *vain me alert* Heeheeheeheeheehee
Sad coz this is not the 1st time it happens to me in uniform! Why must people assume that i am from the N.C.C? Why can't i be from the SINGAPORE ARMED FORCES???
Does this look like N.C.C?
Does this look like N.C.C too??
Its kinda frustrating when people don't take you seriously.
AAArrrgggghhhhh!!!!!!!!
