since the last entry, many a things happened and many trips. well for one i am still serving the nation. and the day that ends is approaching not too long in the future. am conducting the advanced course now. boys are so full of shit. seriously. the excuses! the lame unwarranted jokes! but that is part and parcel of army life i guess, but looking from another perspective altogether.

recently, RS went to the US or A for a trip. that lasted from 16 june to 2nd july, i think? but it was great. la, sf, lv and grand canyon (with candy). missed being there. if not for the fact that the nation is tying me down (haha), i would have errr, eloped? we got back and felt much of the drain from NOT being there anymore. that reality is back to bite me in my ass. how sad. i remembered feeling very zen about the whole us trip thingy, prob inspired by the fact that the pace of 'life' there is much2 slower there, esp evident from the way drivers there drive. patience. no rush.
my best moments - dancing in debbie reynolds sweating myself out (havent done that in a while), santa monica beach (skating), the fog of san francisco, grand canyon walks and lodge stay as well as pseudo-candlelight dinner there (which reminds me of the jigsaw puzzle that i bought but havent gotten down to build it-still!), driving in Utah/Arizona border, plus shopping.

recently i just had a trip to krabi with my friends. supposed to fly to krabi from fri to sun. in the end, tiger cancelled its flight and we were moved to sat, to fly then. so we went on a road trip to malacca that very day to eat "old town white coffee" and walk around at ?dataran makhota, some mall there. we paid a lot in toll. stupid malaysian tolls - i thought they had plans to scrape it but as always, it never happens. we got back to SG at around 2 and rested at lina's place before flying off the next day. flight was supposed to be at 0640 hrs, we reached the airport at around 5 and the flight was postponed to ten!! freaks man!! we were by then zombified but that did not dampen our spirits...haha..the moment we touched down we were on a roll..getting a cab and booking the 4 island tour. took lots of pictures. can see them on facebook. at night, we ate at some dodgy looking sidewalk place, which had AWESOME pad thai!! freaks man...the beef was damn good (it was a cluster of shops peddled by thai muslims)..cool beans...they had roti canai as well but nutella flavour and egg flavoured ones made crispy style. everyone else had their thingy. lin -tom yam. myra some beef stuff. faridz had some internal organ thing -or did he? so since i was quite spent from the day's affair, i slept like a pig. and got a shock the next day when i realised lina, myra and shik were already up BEFORE nasri!! we headed out for a massage. nasri was particular, so wanted a male masseur. the lady offered him a ladyboy!! he almost vomited and shat his pants. haha..eventually a male masseur came and did his thing. we were just talking cock between the 4 of us -lin, myra, nasri and i while getting massaged. after that we ate at this place called "chaba thai" which was halal but had duck weird stuff....err dodgy..but i had phad thai again...AND superbly nice banana and warm coconut milk, almost fainted. i rushed to the hotel after that since i was supposed to leave the place at 130pm to get to the airport to check in at 2pm.
i got a shock when i got to the airport (after paying 500baht for the taxi trip) and found out that the flight was cancelled!
and so the journey of my life began. i was alone and had to find a way to get home on sunday so that i can get to work on monday.
i bought a ticket from airasia for flight from krabi to bangkok (1hr away north bound) and then bought (sobsss) SIA ticket home for SGD 282 (ONE-WAY..burn...). i got home at 0100 plus plus that day. candy 'received' me from the airport, sneezing and all...and i thank her for that. love you dear!!
