hmz.. july..
time whizz me by. yet another half a year gone.
Started work at K-line since july 1st. it's totally different from e previous jobs i've held. My first OFFICE job!! Seriously it's no joke just sitting there staring at your emails.
we've got a open concept cubicles.. plus my space it's just right next to a well worn-out path(e road to pantry and photocopier) means even more difficult to chao keng liao.. but never the less there's ways and means to keng(just like army har har)
Stoning and growing mushrooms is common a process, yet there's a different kinda of challenge. The kind with words, similarly portrayed in the movie "LAW by LAW"(izzit that movie name which epics office politics?) emails are the stones/arrows/missiles/SCUD/ICBM whatever you call it.. it's deadly.. but well *shurgs. otherwise work load so far is alright just abit of planning here and there.
Peeps ard are actually relatively fun bunch to be with, but again the tradition of the company over shadows the "i wanna make some noise mentality" resulting in a constant low decibels office. i could hear the whirling of the fan blades everyday.
so far overall experience has been interesting just need to be sharper and send less wrong emails haha.

National vertical marathon 2008.
venue: Republic Plaza
DTG: 1330 020308
number of steps: 1380
team:northviewers (260)
team members:chuan bao,nungky,yeeling,ben leong and me
tag no as in team name order: 8081 8082 8083 8084 8085
time: 12:19
reporting time was 1330. start time was 1430 argh.. 1 hr wait ahah
then came along. Aloysius! lolz then tian yu then samuel then someone else(can't remember the name)
but they're in a different cat. for them, they will have to wait till 1530 for e start up.
1426: "group 260 please gather at the holdng area" after the holding area we proceed to the start off place
it's another 15 mins wait. between each group there will be a 2 min interval.
finally it's our turn. at 1508 first thing cb said. "wah which way?" that got me laughing.
you'll be surprise there's actually water pt along the way up.
volunteers every 2 or 3 levels. but most of them is sleeping la abit demoralising so i decided to
wake them up as i went =P can't blame them for it anyway, they had been there since say 0700 in that confine space and humility
anyone is bound to proceed to lala land.
overall it has been a good experience. for those who think running up and running flat
is e same.. you're terribly wrong. both uses different muscle groups in the first place and
due to the confined space there's little air flow within e area.
click here for photos
FIR came to our church last week, super nice lah! rock on guys!
there's a slight change in my course of work, was transfered from RL to NFS simply cuz i itchy hand go put advanture sports in my resume.
so now i think i'm like stuck in North Face shop(suntec) so people looking for winter wear can pop by it's not going to be cheap though =)
this week has been really slow..maybe cuz of the flow within the shop.trickle is the word to describe the flow.
like that bo $$ liao lah..
IT fare is on for this week starting on thurs through sun. i went for a look on thurs boy oh boy you will be surpise by the
number of people there. i was like "eh. they all dun need to work one meh?"
bought a external hdd/thumb drive and a speaker.
been raining most of the days too, so basically not much runs sad.
finally complete my MIc class after like nearly 10 mths lolz. people take 2 weeks i took 10 mth. grrrr oh well =D
today God presence in the place was very tangible such a nice feeling. sigh..

070208
flight SQ912 1345 flight out to phillippines.
1700 landed. e system onboard was jumpy can't even finish e movie secret =(
didn't manage to get our transport to our dive place cuz there's a slight mis-commuication.
end up we took a taxi to our resort costing 2.5 grand.
but it's a fun ride, e driver miss a turn and end up 7km off e intented turning pt.
but all is well at e end made it to e solona, mabini batangas just before dinner time ends.
not a bad place gd food gd ambience cheers!
080208
moved out at 0900hrs.
first dive site was krabi. a wall dive quite nice but oncec my meter hit 2000. didn't felt right had a
nauseous feeling. After another 1000 i've reach my limited
signalling my DM, i surface and vomit straight out there goes my breakfast =(
felt light-headed after that and very nauseous not a very good feeling. ko for quite a long time.
090208
went out to see e sea horses at dead plam. they are very small and well camoflaged in e ferns. you'll need a strobe light to see them.
today's dive was nice but get e head compression again when i start e descend but not as bad as yesterday's but today's water is coLD! my fingers actually turn
purple, i was like hugging my self through out e entire dive bleahz. miss out e second dive haiz wasted lor..
come so far to miss out so many trips but got a massage which was real shiok.
100208
went out kayaking cold symtoms still persisted. check out at 1430 final price 15,173 peso = Sgd$561
price is abit steep but i'm not complainting the food/service was really good there's great dive sites.
Arrived at our hotel named discovery suites next to mega mall. flu got worst
110208
hit mega mall(mm). it's huge.. took over 5 mins to walk from end to end(at my walking speed)
standing at 6 levels it's really a mega mall. went over to SM mall of asia later in e afternoon
manage to get hold of a cab with e help of a passerby who was really nice. she even go to e extent
of call and booking e cab for us and waited with us.
if you think mega mall was huge.. e moment i saw MOA(mall of asia) jaw drop.
it's divided into 5 different sections. north/main/south/central stage and pubs
mm took me 1 hr to cover. moa took me 2 hrs. totally crazy.
oh i bought my cold medication over there at watson. they too have a pharmency section but it's
futher divided into 2 section e first one will ask you what you want and get it for you. then e second one withh check your content
and settle your payment imagine waiting 15mins just to buy a panadol.
took a jeepny to edsa station and transfer to their mrt. it's quite samll.. and guess what.. the buses on e road just zoom pass us!
that's how slow but it's a sure way to avoid the killer traffic.
120208
they did last min shopping while i slack in hotel again. return flight boarding time 1340
delayed till 1355 then i got in =/ e que was terrible.. i started que at 1315 just for e stamping of passport
waited till 1355.. argh! it's massive congestion outside as well shurgs.
i finally found ice wine. e same one i bought in Nz here in DFS! weee though e price is like nearly $15 more..
one conclusion to divers: never dive with a cold. it'll totally ruin your diving experience and is life threating =(
BUT will go again any takers? =D

finally i collected my pay today when one of my ex-colleague called me up to remind me.upon receiving e pay slip i realised.. it's 2 mths pay! no not a bonus.. but rather i didn't get the nov pay also. haha happy boi.
something else happen in office today. i learned that one of my ex-crew member went overboard. yes into south china sea near vietnam. They never found his body, they could not have anyway given the weather conditions. we were always joking and messing ard.. He was supposed to be transfered to another vessel next mth. oh well nothing is predicable.
His name is soy aye from mayanmar. He will be missed.
life as a sailor is never easy.
Think your job is crappy think of those who endured e oceans and hard-driven bosses to bring you the material and goods.
well enough of that. so today i went for my job orientation. there i found many other brands not heard of in e avg runner's world. yup. i'm working now part time in the running lab(novena sq) so if you need any running shoes or accessories do pop by.
we conduct runs every tue ard novena area ranging from 5-10k. hehe machiam advertising for them..

1500 watched a musical titled wedding in the snow.it talk about how a male servent falls in love with the owner's daughter it also protray how traditional korean wedding is like.
1930 checked into dragon valley yongpyong ski resort. collected our ski gears before that. i got a all orange rig. like promoter for m1.
040108- 0900 first ski lesson, it's more like a basic crash course only taught us how to fall/get up/stop. he ciao half way lah! wth.. anyway it was a really fun day. for my refusal to pay the 48k unlimited chair lift up i climbed up the slope but it's worth it lah. super fun zipping down the slope and ard people haha.
