Ord more than 2 months, trying to have a do-not-talk-abt-army mentiality. However, its not really easy, haha... Living in a mental time capsule for the 2 yrs, 2 months, feel like a patient that woke up from a coma. Living my new found life now, n think im doing well
1st phase of ord is starting to be over, which is the hectically play ur life out. Nowadays, i sleep at 1am, compared to the april's 3-5am ave sleeping time. Starting phase 2, its the learning back of skills that were needed to be forgotten during the army days. Reading, working hard, writing, learning. Thats one of the reasons y im blogging less these days.
My grandmother passed away last Saturday at North West Malaysia. Flew over to attend her funeral on tue afternoon. Werid, saw many relatives that i 1) have seen in the past 10 yrs, 2)never seen for the past 10yrs, 3) never knew existed. Some of them were my distant cousins that were living in Sarawak. Werid, cos although we are abt the same age grp, we just gave each other simple glances. Dunno wat they think of my blue hair. Hmm..... Death is such a werid thing. Sometimes, i feel the funeral is more for comforting the hearts of the family members.
Went for National Achievers Congress. Its a annual event where overseas speakers are invited to speak in Spore. Learnt a few useful things, though it meant sitting thru a full 2 days of lectures. Already booked the next yr's tic, cos its a real eventful seminar for me. Amazing things i learnt from the seminar, from the difference bwt an inspired life and a motivated one, to how to memorise info.
In case people out there still dunno, i have dyed my hair to blue. Its fading away as expected, but the colour varies bwt purple n blue. Much better than that time where i did it at 'REDS', where it faded to green. Have been getting a few strange looks when my hair was pure blue. but now with the slight purpish feel, the statement is not as much as it could be. Dunno y, but inside me, there is a burning desire to have blue hair. Werid huh? i also dunno y. Its not that i wan to imitate any anime or movie charactor. There is this small voice inside me telling :'Dye it blue'. Reminds me of the song Effiel 65, Blue. 'Blue is the colour, that lives inside me....'
Went for my jc class chalet. The intentions of the organiser was gd, but we din have much to do. If u wan to please everyone, how can u be urself? thats wat i truly learnt from this chalet. Thats y there are cliques ard. No real offence to anyone. Just that we have different values sys. I repsect that. Still, its heart-warming to be able to see my class, just that only a third came. Scary how alcohol affects people. Fortunately, Im blessed with the ability to be immune to such peer pressure.
Went to MPH book sale. Bought 7 books at $41. quite cheap, athough the 2 that i bought for my sis brought down the ave pricing of each books. Still, an ave of $6 per book on self-improvement. Saw alot of people, n there were alot of elderly people, as they came down for another event, the food fair, at the other convention hall. Was very crowded. Maybe the organiser can add more movebale toilets when there are many events being held at one time, cos there was a long queue at al toilets, n many were elderly people. Was pretty appalled by how many kids were treating the books, throwing them ard, without any consideration to where n how they are being kept. N im not saying toddlers, but kids at the age around 8-10. Werid wat parents teach their children nowadays.
