i've been away from this blog for a while, and there are probably no readers anymore. but whatever.. so heres what i did for the past week. was a great week. away from the monotony of all others.

went to play pool on monday with Ben Tan/Lee, Jimi and Edwin. pool fest it was. 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. was enjoyable, funny as it is, i didnt get tired of it. probably due to the fact that i haven't had a shot on the cue ball for a pretty long time. edwin came over later that night for some TDs and other games and crashed over.

training on tuesday. didnt fence at all, just went there, put on my shoes and talk. damn, i'm not going to bring my stuff next week. heavy shit.

went to edwin's house for table tennis in the evening on wednesday with davin marcus and joe. was really fun. didnt know hitting balls across a table could be so... exciting? went for dinner at pasir panjang junction. edwin drove me home to pick up my bro's laptop and DS. then went to pick davin up at his place and went to edwin's again for some overnight gaming. some unfortunate turn of events in the end and we hardly played much lol.

slept way into thursday at edwin's.. after some kfc at his place, i headed home... without my keys. felt so embarrassed to have edwin drive my keys to me. fuck myself. right, after a shower and some chores, bryce and davin came over. waited for edwin for quite a while before we headed out for a very late dinner. went to geylang for frog porridge. it was really good. but small in servings. 16 bucks bought barely enough for 3 people. after that edwin sent everyone home.

slept till 5 pm again on friday. hung around at home and had dinner. went down to esso to get the bike pumped but the inner tube was ripped. after a lot of delaying, my old bike's tyre was swapped on to my bro's bike. rode out on an already crippled bike. cycled through vivo, suntec and east coast park to reach changi. gruelling it was. i was always falling behind. couldn't go low while climbing hills and couldn't go highest on flat outs. had me pumping mad for lousy speeds. camped at changi budget terminal from around 2am to 6am. then set off for changi village. didn't expect it to be so far away. well it was near. but the route from the terminal was very long. stormed on the way and i literally gave in to fatigue. got a cab and headed for home.. sweet sweet home. took a shower, grabbed a bite and knocked myself out in bed. it was a great ride. but i swear over my dead body i will never ride to changi ever again. unfortunately, this ride made me never want to ride again.. in a way.

it has been an eventful week, thoroughly enjoyed. this is the life (without school) that i really like. everyday is special and enjoyable. unlike spending every single day at home doing the same things day after day after day after day. after poly holidays are over, i swear i will get a job. because after poly holidays, it will be back to the monotonous routines of nothingness if i don't go working.
