Whats up Blog, 10 years now since i began writing here, the post just got lesser and lesser in the last
5 years to the point where i totally skipped 2014?
Well, life's been the usual, the ups, the downs and the flat-lines where one struggle within the confines of life's challenges. 2.5 years since i left the navy, 2.5 years into the business
funny how people always learn through the hard way. countless challenges, arguments, family strain and of course the reality of how important money is.
i will make it a point to speak to you at least once a month from now on, i do intend to keep till untill they decide to close down blogspot (if they ever decide to)
I seemed like yesterday everyone was still the bumbling school children. Today some of them are married, parents to their children. Successful in life, some not so successful. some totally disappeared from the face of the earth. i think i was one of em? lol
one thing for sure though, im drinking alot less now (explains why my alcohol tolerance has crashed) put on abit of weight (need to lose them soon)
my thoughts are all over the place, im just typing whatever that comes to my mind.
Hello, how are you, i am fine
hardship temper the soul like fire mold steel (wow i just came up with that from nowhere)

阳光总在风雨后
歌曲：阳光总在风雨后
歌手：许美静
人生路上甜苦和喜忧
愿意与你分担所有
难免曾经跌到和等候
要勇敢的抬头
谁愿藏躲在避风的港口
宁有波涛汹涌的自由
愿是你心中灯塔的守候
在迷雾中让你看透
阳光总在风雨后
乌云上有晴空
珍惜所有的感动
每一份希望在你手中
阳光总在风雨后
请相信有彩虹
风风雨雨都接受
我一直会在你的左右
人生路上甜苦和喜忧
愿意与你分担所有
难免曾经跌到和等候

2013
Hello my blog, my longest friend. its been so long since i last visited you. Im sorry that i did not update you about what has happened all these while. The last post was 2011, i did not realize i skipped the entire of 2012 without a single post.
Dear blog, you have been with me for as long as i can remember. a memory of all my life's battles. a testament to the growth of all these years.
2012 was one of my most trying year. i finally managed to pass my bridge watch keeping competency and is now officially an appointment holder, a Navigating Officer. A goal that almost felt so impossible, so diminished 4 years ago. So many major exercises, so many assessments. i almost couldn't breathe. The first few months were more ridiculous having to sail 2 teams due to lack of manpower The learning curve wasn't exactly a curve, it was more like a steep sloop that runs straight up. Makes me realize, the reason we are put through all these hardship is so that we can defend those we truly love in times of need. The harder it is, the more prepared we are. But thats what life is about yea, we fight, we learn we become better then yesterday.
My heart took a beating as well. i didnt think i could have the capacity to love someone so much. I tried to hang on for as long as i could, tried all means and ways. Stood by her through rain or shine. Alas, it was guy A and then guy B but never me. Maybe its really KARMA for being such a bastard in the past as Li Min would put it. The day i know she was attached, my heart completely died. However, i never once regretted for all the love i gave, the time ive spent. i believe It is better to love and die then never to have loved at all. Thats what life is about yea, we fight, we learn we become better then yesterday.
Oh yes, ive submitted my early release form as well for leaving the service. Finally its been cast into stone and the magic date is 14 May 2013. i remember embarking on this journey filled with uncertainty and for all the wrong reasons (I didnt think i shared the major reason why i signed on) As much as these years were so much a bitch, i really think that ive grown so much. ive become better, More patient, less bad tempered and most importantly being humble.
Finally leaving to study and join S.L.G PTE LTD (my fathers business). another leap of faith.
and dear blog, thank you for being here always.

a year now huh since my last post....
just really needed to talk to someone but it seemed so hard.....
i guess pouring here will help feel a lil better
why is it that every year's birthday is so hard to pass
didnt people say that this day should be your happiest day?
but why do i feel so troubled and vexed every such time of the year?
its hard to believe ive spent so many years of my adult life alone on my birthdays
i see friends and couples do the sweetest things for each other on this very special day
and all i got was silence and cold
dont i deserve at least a lil bit better?
dont i?
cant i?
dont say that nothing else in the world matter anymore when you have that special someone in your arms
id love to feel that
especially on this day
Gim kai, happy birthday
you are 23 now
a year older
a year poorer
and a year basked in painess

this blog ladies abd gentlemen is 6 years in the making, u can possibily imagine from the time i was
16 to today. u can consider it the best time of my lives. i was reading ruby's old blog which i
chanced upon (i didnt go to work because of my sore eyes) her blog dated for 2 years 04 to end of
05 and it interesting to read how was her point of view when the things we go through intersect. i
didnt know i used to be such a superstar in sec sch! haha she called me the event of the year! now
nice!
i miss all the old times, i miss everyone. ruby ya included although u can be so perverted at
times i had to strangle you. now that im in the navy its still worthwhile. just completed NDP
parade as en Ensign (flag bearer). its a wonderful experience! i miss the trainings and the enckis
and of course all those cute helpers and volunteers. ive completed what u call the grandslam of
parades. From CDF change of command to SAF day and then finally NDP 2010.
anyway this entry is dedicated to the past 6 years of my life with this blog. no i wont close this
down, theres so much memories here sometimes reading it feel like making me cry (honestly)
heres something random but i love all my friends!

To dream the impossible dream
To fight the unbeatable foe
to bear the unbearable sorrow
To run where the brave dare not go
To right the unrightable wrong
To love pure and chaste from afar
To try when your arms are too weary
To reach the unreachable star.
That is my quest to follow that star
No matter how hopeless
No matter how far
To fight for the right
Without question or pause
To be willing to march into hell for a heavenly cause
And i know if i'll only be true
To this glorious quest
That my heart will lie peaceful and calm
When im laid to my rest
And the world will be better for this
That one man scorned and covered with scars.
