was talking to song yun jus now, basically jus catching up with her. haven talked to this small girl in a long long time. we talked abt age, abt how old we are compared to the freshies. den something caught me. what will i be doing 10 yrs down the road when i turn 30yrs old? since i was a kid, my ambition has always been to serve my country. to be a police at first and more recently, a soldier especially a commando. alot of pple have questioned why i wan to do this. they say its tough and its not as easy as it seems. but to me, everybody has to die and why not die in service of your nation. at least i know i died while serving my country and serving a purpose instead of dying like every other person.(i know its extreme but thats jus the way i feel). den recently, i received my pes status and it was C due to the dislaocted patella suffered in sec school. and immediately i knew my chances of being a soldier was gone but i still have not given this dream because i believe the army does not need so many clerks. hahaha.

but if the army really does not wan me, wad do i do? that bit i have nv given it much thought. what do i do with my life once i come out of the army? all my first choice options were nv really options to begin with...... being a professional athlete; thats not going to happen simply due to my age and the fact that i nv truly grasped the chance while still playing for the school. serving the nation; as explained above, im still waiting for my chance. that jus leaves me with the prospect of the business field. i was lucky to have taken accounts in sec school, not of my own choice but because of my results, but if i had taken A maths instead. sure as hell, i would have been nowhere in life now. accounts really opened my eyes to the prospect of working in the business field as i liked that subject from the moment Ms Tan introduced it to 4e6.

long story short, it was accounts that landed me in TP-Dip in Bus. from there i further realised that my interests were in the Tourism industry and Banking sector although i prefer the former. with the IR due to open in 2008, that has given me a very big opportunity. here comes the problem. i grow sick of things very easily; quickly getting bored over something and searching for something new to explore(thus the first 2 options of soldier and althete as they always bring new challenges). i do not know whether this interest in the tourism and banking sectors would last me a lifetime or i will, jus like many other things, grow sick of it. thus the question, what will i be doing 10yrs down the road? in the banking/tourism industry or doing something new? i guess at this point in time i will jus have to take things one step at a time and see wad the future holds for me and not bother myself too much. i shall end this post with my motto in life; Live For The Moment.

haven updated in quite a few days sia, time to type something in liao. so i'll jus start from the most past thing. the other day, josh helped me buy the Netherlands lanyard from Nike, damn chio sia partly becos its in orange lar. it came with a whistle which i thought was useless lar, might as well come with a plastic holder, at least i can do something with it. but it was still chio lar(until i saw something even cooler, i'll talk abt it later). den josh and saf came over to my place to pass me the lanyard and saf watched hard gay at my place-FOOOOOO!!!! that stupid boy laughed till he was rolling on the floor lar. we den went to athar for their dinner and my supper. on the way there ah, the 3 of us went hard gay crazy sia, kept shaking our hips and going FOOOO!!!.

den came friday which was the day glenn celebrated his bdae. meet xiu hui, elene and jon siew at TM to get the present for glenn. we couldnt decided on wad to get glenn(its always so hard to get gifts) but i saw a Netherlands bag in Converse. its a sling bag and its damn cool lar with the word NEDERLANDS on the cover. im getting that bag sia once i get my pay, although its a lil ex. anyway, in the end yasin came and he suggested we get glenn running shirt and pants. along the way, elene kept talking abt her DIVING not DRIVING trip. hahaha, can tell she damn enthu abt it lar but me and xiu hui soon got sick of it. hahaha. in fact xiu hui has been hearing abt it in school everyday. finally we settled on a orange top and grey pants for glenn bought from Royal Sporting House.

went to glenn's chalet in zul's 14 footer MOS machine, once there, saw a few the of ex programmers sia(jono, mac, raj and greg). its always fun having them ard and talking crap with them. den that mac ah, poured martell for me and once i finished the drink i knew im gone liao. i was concious but my head started to ache like siao. when we were going home, xiu hui looked at the sky and said she saw scorpio and started to point them out to us. much as i tried ah, i couldnt understand a thing lor. lol. im really sorry ah hui. and on the way home, iskander started telling ghost stories, which freaked the gals out lar. hahaha. in the end, me, jon siew and kenneth sent xiu hui up to her flat cos she was scared. but she has her reasons lar. besides my legs needed some walking from all those sitting in the lorry. my house was nxt and i slept early cos my head couldnt take it no more.

today(technically yesterday cos its now sunday liao) went to play soccer with zelva - they are also hard gay crazy sia, going FOOO!!! all the time - and could immediately feel the martell still having its effects on me sia. bloody hell. totally no energy to run and ran out of breath within like 10 mins sia. and the pitch ah, waterlogged; causing the ball to get stucked and all lar. all our boots got damn bloody muddy and i have to apologise to xiu hui again cos the frenship band u made, was totally covered in mud. original colour was orange and after the game it was brown with specks of grass but i managed to clean it though and its orange again =). but after today's game, i really need to work on my fitness sia, couldnt sustain my own pace for long sia and i kept losing the ball. if only i was still playing bball, where i can go on and on. after the game, we went for dinner at magic wok, its a thai restaurant. the food was good but the service sucked sia(most prob cos they dun have service charge). also found out that shao wei is having a tough time with his MP, jus hang in there man, it will be over soon. went home after that only to catch 10mins of my name is earl and was kinda pissed with myself cos i could have left early to watch the whole show. anyhow, i can always get the show's dvd =) thats all folks. i know its long but if u have read till here, thanx for ur patience.

forgot to apologise to the guy that got hit by my flying chair at zheng fa. i only pushed the chair damn lightly lor and it skidded damn far sia. and you were trying to eat your food somemore. made the situation damn awkward and funny. once again, i offer my sincere apologises to the guy who got hit. =P

jus caught Da Vinci code on friday with my 2e3 pple at J8; Shao Wei, Brandon, Kwee Chuang, Dai Yuan, Boon Gee and Yee Han. great show but abit hasty if u have read the book. if as a stand alone film, its very very nice; intense and fast paced. after that the whole gang went to mac for dinner and we only left at ard 12am. most of us missed the last bus home, we den decided to walk home from bishan. OMG, the distance was damn far lar we took abt 1.5 hr before we reached NYP. but it was damn cool man, haven done this sort of thing in a very very long time. spent the time walking basically jus crapping and catching up with each other. Bran has the best work place in the world lor, can play game as and when he likes. a pity we meet up quite late if not can catch up with each other more. han, dai and gee going to ORD soon liao sia, damn fast. awhile more den can relax liao. den sw damn stress lar, MP in school maciam like working life like that. kwee, hahaha. same as always lar; crappy. going army only in sept. anyhow, in the end we took cab home from NYP cos we all damn tired and gave up halfway. haha.

spent my sat sleeping at home hahaha. went out for steam-boat at night with my fellow sub-comms in marina. hahaha, fun to see them again although not many pple turned up. those still studying, they all damn stress sia; projects and all. relax abit especially xiu hui ah. reached zheng fa and waited for quite awhile before we found seats, it was abby's first time to marina for steamboat. haha. so interesting. had a great time cooking for each other and passing food to one another especially xiu hui; cannot finish den keep passing and act blur like the food popped out by itself. hahaha. ah tan can really eat sia, espcially the prawns and jon jus kept cooking and cooking for us hahaha. Tom actually BROKE his chopstick sia, dunno how he managed to break it. lol. had a great time there lar though i left early with saf for athar. met josh at athar and talked crap lor. in the end i decided to miss work for 4 hrs to play soccer with my SWIFT FC today. shiok sia, nv exercise in so long, abit cannot catch up although i still scored 1 pretty nice goal. hahaha. and im typing this blog at work now despite missing 4 hrs of work. this is how free i am lor. sian......

hey guys, this is my first official blog. hahaha. didnt expect myself to blog. but since work is so boring, i decided to do something with the time i have on my hands. and also write some of my thoughts down. =) thus this creation with kakashi as the skin. he is way cool sia.

the blog is named oranje12 becos it has the elements of my favourite colour, team and number. abit duh lar, but orange is a nice colour and oranje is the nickname for Netherlands national football team and since World Cup is ard the corner, can honour them at the same time. 12, hahaha, my fav number and Jeff Hardy's too. its has also always been my jersey number and is my birthdate too..... so there it is. oranje12.blogspot.com

do remember to tag ya. =P
