Are you reading my mind? Or are you getting lost in it?

Don't presume you know me, cos I sure as hell don't.

My arms...

My forearms are hurting with every movement of my fingers. So right now I'm creating this blog with pain, literally. I took an offday from work yesterday to go to Ponggol. I went Wakeboarding! Yes, I finally did it. After like...I forgot how many years of procrastination. Jeez, I was so nervous about it when I went into the water I swallowed a couple mouthfuls. Didn't know lang kao zui (or was it a river?) also salty one. Not bad the instructor says...for a guy. Amanda (the instructor) said that it was usually harder to teach guys to wakeboard cos they usually use too much strength when they're not supposed to. Carol told me before its because guys usually don't listen to the instructions. Hm.... I'm a soldier so following instructions has been my ricebowl for some time. And I haven't been exercising much so that probably explains the strength part, I couldn't have overexerted myself even if I wanted to...I'm weak liao! Hahaha. Jokes aside; wakeboarding was really fun though. You can fall on your face and it wouldn't hurt as much as falling face first on concrete. I managed to stand on my second try but I couldn't ride until the third. Urgh, I miss the times when sports and exercises were so easy to pick up. I couldn't get my posture right at all. My butt kept sticking out like I'm a desperate whore who is having a bad day and really eager to get some attention and business. Not cool...definitely. Carol made fun of me..."I thought your hips very flexible when you're dancing? Now stiff is it?" (somewhere along the line...I really couldn't be bothered to remember) I really need to get my body in shape and have my flexibility back. I don't want to look like a deep frozen chicken on a wakeboard again. (Perhaps that was the reason in the first place I procrastinated...)

Anyway, besides wakeboarding, something else made me happy. I met an old friend by chance in a restaurant!!! Its none other than Ken, my ex sec school-mate. Boy, do I miss this fella. We were so close back when we were around 16, the whole group of boys. We had a helluva time making fun of teachers (got a couple of them crying), playing soccer and basketball after school, working for an insurance company while waiting for our 'O' results (Winterthur if I remember correctly) and going for Tae Kwon Do. I even 'camped' at Ken's place for a couple of days. Learnt a little Jap culture from Ken's mum, played with his cat... I WANT TO GO BACK IN TIME!!! Life was so carefree back then... (I'm not gay for getting warm fuzzy feelings when I meet old friends.)

About my last blog, a few people said I actually blog better when I'm intoxicated. Well, good news people! Al is officially part of the team despite violent objections from the brain department and liver department. Though his pay is higher than mine... I'm sure many of you would like his presence around once in a while. He's sitting in my fridge now with a green T-shirt that says 'Carlsberg' right now. See? He's even got free accomodation!Lucky B@stard...

What the fish...

Yeah, I'm a procastinator. That probably explains why I haven't been blogging much lately.... Mostly its because my brain goes off duty whenever I log on to blog. Well, whether he likes it or not, I'm blogging without the help of that selfish grey matter of mine. Today I'm blogging with a new employee. His name is Al...short for Alcohol. He came for the job interview wearing a Beer can. I hired him on the spot. Though he makes my system a little incoherent ( that's why my blogging style seems so damn weird right now), good help is hard to find. He's a part timer though and I have to pay him in advance...

I wrote a whole bunch of crap about 30 mins ago but it all got erased by friendster when it refused to load properly. I'm kinda pissed with the whole thing now so I don't think I'll carry on. I need to get some sleep so that I can go to East Coast in the morning...

Bummer.

Ok, haven't been blogging for sometime. Been too plain lazy to log on and blog. Will probably do duplicate entries, one here and another in my friendster blog.

Was talking to Carol a few days back and somehow the conversation went over to wakeboarding. Since Carol hasn't been wakeboarding for years and I'm really keen on it, we decided to go wakeboarding a couple weeks later when we get more time on our hands. Though I've wanted to do wakeboarding since I was 16, it simply never took off cos I'm basically a bum. I've been putting too many things off actually. Even my tattoo came after, like a decade? I guess that's what I am.

A full time procrastinator.
