creativity and innovation course

yep todae went for tat course in bouna vista... met amy on the train.. chatted quite a bit to catch up... and again further convince me tat nothing is better than to ord right now...

the course - creativity and innovation - suits me, totally no creativity or innovation, best.. enjoyed the course although almost fell asleep at some point where the topic's dry... but gotta admit the lecturer did a great job... he's very humourous... cracked jokes and bring laughter to the class alot.. so i guess it's not quite a bad experience, got myself entertained, at least, and learnt some things... not much things, actually...

feels tired... and again i'm still tinkning, still stuck, dunno exactly which course to take, which path to choose... oh how indecisive i am...

good night

personality

Your ideal mate has a sense of humor and is lively.
You always compare yourself with others. You make your wishes too difficult to come true.
Success depends on someone's faith in their ability. That's your attitudes towards success.
You are a person of principle. You respect social rules and regulations.
You are emotional, sincere and optimistic.

Just go to see him or her and let he/she know how you feel, straight from the heart. That would be okay for a brave one like you.

The first qualification that you want from your partner is:Looks: looks mean a lot to you.

Why do you love someone?
Here is the reason:You love his or her personality. Everything he/she does is beautiful.

You are always on the lookout for romance. You don't mind a little crying on occasions.

What is your spending style?
Your smart spending score: 60%You are an average person. Your spending is in line with the amount of money you have. You would save when required and spend when necessary.

You think good luck doesn't exist. Reality is built on practicalities. It's probably safe to say that you do not buy lottery tickets.

You know how to let your emotions show but you still find it difficult to do so as often as you should. You should be prepared to let your emotions out more often. When you feel sad let yourself cry, when you feel angry, let your anger show and when you feel happy allow a smile to cross your face.

missed two weekends of driving, so tomolo's off will be spent by driving in the morning... off tomolo as i got a day's off from ahm, which the battalion took half in monday and half friday last week, but i missed both...

a bit no fate wif tennis and bball nowadays.... last sunday went yck tennis centre wif tys, booked a court from 12 to 1, coincidentally rain starts to pour when the ppl playing from 11 to 12pm slot were packing up.... sigh... to make matters worse i stupidly threw away the receipt, causing much trouble trying to change the booking to another day... wasted alot of time.. the counter staff even asked me to go pick up the receipt from the rubbish bin....

juz now in camp was gg for a tennis game wif my fren, onli to found out tat the key for the court was lost... can't believe our luck...

yest all booked out for night's out, but i stayed back for a bball game.. was onli changing into sports atire when thunder roared and strong wind started to blow.. ignored it and continued my way to the bball court where they already started playing... ended up we close shop and returned after my first shot at the basket... no rain yet but the lightning was too close for comfort... and no sooner after we found the nearest shelter rain started pouring very heavily... great great thunderstorm tat spoiled my bball game....

saw a rjc gal at a bus stop some days ago... was kinda immersed into a feeling of falling in love... she was rather good looking and the fact tat she's wearing rjc pe t shirt attracts me in a way i've nv felt b4... intelligence and beauty, an attractive combination... making me redefine my ideal gal who i'll like to be wif.... even though i'm probably not as smart as her, not probably i'm gg to learn alot from her and gg to better as a person, working to my potential....

enf of dreaming, now back to reality... even as i laugh, shout, do work, chat, play soccer, exercise, crack jokes, kanna scoldings, act lame, everyday i'll go to sleep without a reason for me to smile and look ahead and forward to the next day... guess alot of ppl, esp those in my group of close frens, are feeling the same way... all talking abit the 'space' tat's left empty... me too... living juz to wait to fall in love again....

will i ever?

sigh, so sad... last time in jc i'm considered to be quite fit, now degraded to a medically unfit and non-combat fit personnel in saf... things tat i ought to do tat will make me develop into a much better character as a person, or at least much fitter and healthier, are all denied to me... now i'm juz another clerk in another office gaining weight and wastimg my precious two years away... little money oso...

missed driving totally this week... will somehow make it up, next week or wat...

juz now played dynasty warriors again... used other characters and now using jiang wei... good cos first stage i got the final weapon le, become ultra strong... he's a really good character, really fast... previous game used sun shang xiang, really challenging cos she's not very good, but not too bad oso.. completed wifout getting the final weapon, can feel satisfaction after each stage cos it's not easy....

wa so shiok

yea no need book in todae cos tomolo on off!!! feel so shiok, even if it means doing nothing at home, it still beats live in camp.... hahaa...

tomolo will go for another driving lesson in the morning.... counting, this will be my sixth.... but i nv seem to progress far or fast.. maybe i'm a slow learner... a very slow learner indeed... the last lesson on driving, which is yesterday, i totally blur... kanna dead car when starting out in junction... sigh, my starting off still not smooth... everytime my ankle feel very uncomfortable.. den will press too hard on the accerelator, den too light... worse still, my the vehicle rocks mildly, my foot rocks wif it together, bringing the accerelator up and down and up and down... hahaa... my instructor will den express a disappointed look while i'm juz smile.... well, hope tomolo will be get better..

received the first issue of discover, which i subscribed way back when i was in bmt... in feb... wat the, they took so long to process ah... i even tot my subscription wasn't successful.. well, anyway, it's very interesting... every page is juz so readably, which justify it's high price for a thin mag.. unlike magizines like 8 days etc where i juz flip flip flip and onli read certain pages... but den still quite ex leh... so thin, like newsweek liketat, cost more than 1o bucks... okie, i'm gg to read every single page and every single word of it to make it cost-worthwhile.... hahaa...

promise myself tat i'll go do some exercise tomolo..... if no games den at least a simple jog in the small park downstairs... jogged yest, feels good... really muz get myself to exercise regularly le... wif the quantity of food intake in camp, the excesses in my body is accumulating... muz get rid of them!!!!
