02:47 am - Night surf
I've finally done it...!
I windsurfed in the dark...!
Sunday started out just like any other weekend would. Go windsurf, have fun, de-rig equipment by 6pm, head out for dinner.
This one would be different.
Me: Time to pack up and go home. No wind again.
Wil: Norman checked the radar, 6pm big storm.
Me: is that right.
Wil: Yeah, lets go out and wait for it.
Me: Hmm ok.
So three crazy windsurfers head out, while the rest pack up.
6.30pm... a breeze arrives... sun is setting...
645pm... wind picks up... planing begins...!
715pm... Sky goes dark...
Me: I can't see the wind anymore...! I think it's dying...
JC: Oh shit. Go back, go back now...! Low tide, have to drag the stuff in...!
Me: AWWW MANNNN...
On route back, sky goes completely dark. I barely make it back to shore.
How i know it's shore? My $800 Deboichet fin hits the mud, I almost catapult.
745pm... i wash my equipment, derig and stow everything in complete darkness.
JC: That was mad. But awesome!
Me: Yeah, lets do it again next week. But make sure we tie red and green lightsticks to the boom. Then boats can tell if we're starboard or port.
Me: Oh. And be careful not to hit Bedok Buoy. Buoy versus Board, Buoy always wins.
I am happy.
Oh so happy.

09:15 am - Heartless...
Somewhere far along this road, I lost my soul.
To a woman so heartless...
How could you be so heartless?
Oh... how could you be so heartless.

01:25 pm - blah
i haven't posted anything up for quite some time huh.
Doubt i'll be starting anytime soon either.
Funny, since this page is pretty much the only access i have to the outside world.
The damn office has banned Facebook, Friendster, MSN, even Hotmail and Gmail...
Just wait till i get my Blackberry Curve...!

03:11 pm - GOODBYE 2008, HELLO 2009...
Countdown last night was just OK. Nothing spectecular but it was kinda nostalgic, to remember how it feels again to be of a certain age, with no cares in the world and just party till the break of dawn. Well, attempts to re-live the good ol' days are promptly dashed by a dose of tiredness which serves as a reminder that I'm 25 and that i have to work, am tired from work, and my body is breaking down.
I need more rest!
Anyway, the following are last year's resolutions. Lets see how much of it has been fulfilled:
2008 Resolution 1
Score in my Final Year examinations coming up in April/May/June, and secure at least a 2nd Upper Class of Honors.
And if possible, i could always go for the 80 upon 100 for ALL of my 5 Modules this year and get a 1st Class Honors!
CHECK. 2nd Upper Class Honours attained.
2008 Resolution 2
Train hard. Very very hard. For windsurfing.
Become one of the top windsurfers in Singapore and compete and win 70% of the Local races i compete in, and win something in the International arena. Be selected to represent Singapore in a major regatta.
CHECK. Wait... HALF CHECK.
Didn't win 70% of the local races i competed in... But represented Singapore in a major regatta Asian Sailing Championships.
Wait again... Thats not that major...
...dammit. NO CHECK...
2008 Resolution 3
Find a well paying job which i enjoy doing. Hopefully, if i don't get accepted or want to go to Medical School after a year or so of work, this job can still afford me progressions in terms of promotions and pay.
HALF-CHECK.
Have a job which i enjoy doing, but well-paying... Hell no.
2008 Resolution 4
Love the people around me more. Appreciate those who appreciate me, and learn to be more tolerant of those who piss me off.
I want to improve on my communication skills, as well as improve my ability to express my feelings and emotions. Hopefully, i will gain more wisdom and knowledge and hence be able to be more patient with people.
CHECK.
I think i have learnt a lot more in this past year. And i personally think that i've become more tolerant, appreciative and communicative.
Wisdon, knowledge has definitely increased. A little. :P
And yes. I think i'm more patient now.
2008 Resolution 5
Be able to build a sturdy and strong relationship with whoever i'm dating. Be able to provide her all the love and care she needs and wants.
If not, i want to be happily single till 'The One' falls into my arms.
3/4 CHECK.
Still working on this.
'The One' is always subjective, i have realised. You never actually find her until you get married to her.
The you're stuck with 'The One'.
heh heh.
2008 Resolution 6
Get to know 15 new friends which i can consider to be real friends. (Money can't buy the kind of friends you'd want to keep as friends!)
And improve on the existing friendships that have already been formed.
3/4 CHECK.
I think i have definitely made at least 20 or 30 new friends in 2008. Only that i can't say they're really 'real friends'.
I've definitely improved on existing friendships.
2008 Resolution 7
Go to church and get firmly rooted back with God again.
SADLY. NO. CHECK.
2008 Resolution 8
Smoke less. Quit if possible. (I have a feeling this will be one of those which goes unfulfilled)
AGAIN. NO. CHECK.
Will be flushing such unattainable resolutions out for 2009.
2008 Resolution 9
Spend more time with my family. Not just being at home, but being part of the family by literally spending quality time with them.
1/4 CHECK.
I've been home a but more often, talking to my parents and brothers a wee bit more.
I guess that renders a little credit.
2008 Resolution 10
Improve on my music skills and write at 5 new songs this year.
2/3 CHECK.
I've written 4 new songs.
I've NOT been playing the piano on a regular basis so i can't say my music skills have improved.
So thats 4 out of 6.
2/3 resolution checked.
There you have it.
From the looks of it, i'd say that my 2008 was a largely fulfilling one. I think i'm seriously gonna find time to sit down and pen a proper list of resolutions for 2009.
MUST. FIND. TIME.
Makan time now. Hungry...!
Oh yes. I realise this is my first post in like a few months!
Maybe a start of a trend? Better not be.
