about me
I'll do it differently here, I shall summarize myself in a day. I wake up at 7.07am, snooze for 3 more minutes til 7.10am. Check my phone for updates that happened when I was asleep. Jump out of bed cos I'm late. Rush through scrubbing myself and my teeth, as I'm doing that, I boil water for my daily beverage, Haha! Gobble down my breakfast and sometimes get scalded by the hot tea..(That should wake me up..) Head down, and tries to remember where the car is parked, dreads climbing to level 5-6 of the carpark. Drives, enters CTE from AMK Ave 1 exit, exits and enters TPE and almost immediately exits again at Jalan Kayu exit. Does Certification in the Quality and Business Improvement Department for the 700 million dollar, 154,000sqm investment in the Seletar Aerospace Park called Rolls-Royce Singapore Pte Ltd. (Lunch there sucks, as the food isn't that great..It's very expensive too!!) Leaves the office and heads home for dinner(loves mom's cooking!!), sometimes will head to school in the West cos I'm studying part time at Unisim, taking Degree in Aerospace Systems Engineering. On days when I don't have classes, I'll usually (try) and hit the books a little, run around the estate to exercise or laze around watching Deadliest Catch, Whale Wars or other exciting shows. I usually turn in before 12am to catch enough rest.. :) On weekends, haha! I usually cook, for the family, I'm the only child and as gratitude towards my Mom for cooking for almost the whole week, I cook for the family. My best creation by far is beer battered fish and chips. Oh ya..I have been bathing with Johnson's Baby Bath all my life, so if you squeeze me or wring me dry, soap bubbles might appear. I don't really know how to reply to a "Haha".

Granny isn't doing well..
They suspected internal bleeding..I ruled that out..
Turns out..It's true..
I wanna donate my blood, but I don't wanna go into the state of shock and feats.
My blood can save all..O+ is the one that can save all right? But can only take from other O+..right?
She's currently on 1 pint of blood a day I think?



On a side note,
Blood is taken from the blood bank,
this blood is donated by people.
Do we get charged for that pint of blood?
If so, I think it's unfair.
It is only fair that payment for equipment usage and services rendered is charged.
But not for donated blood.



PEOPLE!!! WHAT'S YOUR BLOOD TYPE??!!

I asked Iguchi-San during lunch when he was here..
"When is the best time to go to Japan?"
He said, it depends on what you wanna experience.
He said..Now....It's the cherry blossom period..So it's spring now..
The conversation carried on about baseball..and soccer..
Baseball is never gonna kick off in Singapore I told him..If you hit a home-run, its gonna end up in someone else's flat..


Speaking of cherry blossoms,
Just yesterday.........
"You know it's Spring in Singapore when the shrubs by the side of the roads are blossoming.. "
"You know you are in love when you can't seem to get her out of your mind.."




A nice gentle sight to have when cruising down the freeway..
Sets your mind at ease, floating far far away..
As a storm rages through the evening clouds..
Seems like a canopy of endless shroud

With light it brings a dawning day..
I close my eyes, kneel down and pray..
Thoughts of you keep running free..
How are you today, my baby bumble bee?

Today.
A colleague of mine resigned.
Though the time is short.
There are positives to take from this.
Advice which can be kept to make one a better person.
He left with a wealth of experience.
Knowledge which can be gain through sharing can only be gained through interacting.

Well, dear friend/colleague of mine,
May you have a bright and endeavouring future.

In my short tenure here, I've seen 3 leave.
High turnover, IMO.

They pull me away from your dark lair
And this they do only because they care
This week has seen me much in grieve
An escape from the preceding disbelief
But when I saw you last night once more
I return to where I was before
I want not to relive it all again
And be looked upon by you with disdain
Yet circumstances, they wreak me havoc
And lay a twisted path that blocks
So you see me always in a state of fluster
And with much courage I must muster
Words that make you never have to worry
For all I say is "I love you, baby"


- 5:17 PM

Finally satisfied my Bedok 85 Bak Chor Mee craving last night.
It's good I tell ya..
Probably the best in Singapore!
But, I prefer the one at the corner..The one beside it isn't that nice..
The one at the corner was closed!! :(
Anyway, the layout is like this, they are side by side.


About half way through the meal, my colleague sms me, I saw the name..1st reaction, AHHH FUCK! Sunday call back!!
But no..turns out to be a surprise..
The conversation went something like this..
"bro, is your friend? she is quite pretty"
i was like.."of cos pretty! she's the one..but i got a feeling the place in her heart is filled up by someone else.."
he went..."try bro..just try..blablabla..more blablabla...im sure you are able to get her..blablabla.."
it went on..afew more messages..
until..he went.."im drunk bro, im at clarke quay.."
i told him........"drunk words are sober thoughts.."
he said.."but it's all true.."
i told him..."we'll talk on monday..:P"
well, i'll certainly talk to him on monday....which is tmr..
AHHH..the bluesssss.....im feeling it..


hahahhha...



On a side note, what a race by alonso!
Fought back from a bad start....
He was last..
Fought back to 4th...
WOOOO!

How do you interpret dreams?
Should you interpret them?
Dreams are subconscious stories.
But are these stories a reality?

I had one last night.
It was adapted from reality and made into a dream.
It's probably etched into my mind already.
Let's see if it reappears again.

In engineering, we have tolerance. Tolerance of a certain dimension. ± 0.XXX..
Or whatever is called out in the drawing.

In aerospace engineering, we have tolerance too. But it's ±0.0
Just like how everything needs to be precise.
Aerospace people has gotta be precise too..
I've got 0 tolerance for what has happened, today, earlier on.
Ok, actually nothing happened at all.
Dead air - they call it in radio.

"Drying up in conversation" - I call it...

Yes, I demand an explanation.
I think I deserve one..

Question:
The toilet has 3 cubicles.
You need to shit.
Cubicle 1 and 3 are used.

Answer:
Get the hellouttathere!
Twice the smell is bad enough...

Some lines are curved.
Some lines are straight.
Some drawn, depicts a story.
Some drawn, becomes messy.

Some lines, once broken will never be able to patch back.
Some lines, once erased will never be drawn along the same path.
Some lines, once drawn will reach an end.
Some lines, once drawn will never ever come to an end.

Just came back from work not too long ago..
Had first hand experience in inspection of an airworthy device that has to be installed into an aircraft.
On my way back from work, had lotsa things running through my mind.
Am I reading too much into things?
Have I read too much into it?
I might have..
I need you to tell me.
Tell me I'm not reading into it..
I need to know..


The starlight
I will be chasing your starlight
Until the end of my life
I don't know if it's worth it anymore

Racey days
Help me through the hopeless haze
But my oh my
Tragic eyes
I can't even recognise myself behind
So if the answer is no
Can I change your mind?

Out again, a siren screams at half past ten
And you won't let go
While I ignore, that we both felt like this
Before it starts to show
So if I had a chance
Would you let me know?

Why aren't you shaking
Step back in time
Graciously taking
Oh your too kind

And if the answer is no
Can I change your mind?

We're all the same
And love is blind
The sun is gone
Before it shines

And I said if the answer is no
Can I change your mind?

It has to go down into the books as one of the best external audits ever.
And even with 7 findings (2 unconfirmed), it was like we were happy to get the findings.
7 is a large number..But i remembered counting 6? I wonder where did 1 more pop out from.

Those 2 airworthiness surveyors were heaping so much praise on me, my head felt like it was gonna explode.
:P
Words like.."Good lad"
"You will go to heaven.."
"Gary will go places.."
"This young lad is destined for great things.."
"Gary this...Gary that.."
I'm only 23, I'm still young with alot to learn, alot to experience, alot to gain, alot to give.
I'm keeping both feet on the ground.
1 way to build relationship was to have active communication, in the corporate world, engaging in active communication is important to building customer/client/auditor/auditee relationship.
If there's 1 thing I would take from this audit experience, it would be active communication.
Engaging in one is easy, keeping it going is another.
One of them felt so comfortable to a point where he brought his laptop over to me and showed me his daughter's picture (playing football.. :S)..
They are from England, what else do you talk about?
It's football, beer and fish and chips.. HAHA!




Immediately after the audit, I zao!
Took leave, go home..
Wack a full tank of Malaysia Boleh Petrol..
Went through the book..
Slp..
Andddd....
Yes, and I have a test later on!
Went through the book last night
Still don't know what to study leh..
I've read through the damn book twice already.
4 Chapts only..
I wonder what will come out.


"As I watch the minutes pass
Each one brings me closer to
The time you're comin' back"


why does merely afew days feel like monthssssssss?

"Gary is a good lad."
I received praise from the 2 airworthiness surveyors from the CAA(Civil Aviation Authority).
Leaving the office now!
Tell you more soon.

And I was really busy today.. Didn't have time to msg you..
Got a test tomorrow. Took leave to study already..
Gonna be busy..

There's this prankster who keeps calling me..
I will murder you, I tell ya..

There's a saying that goes, "When the hunter becomes the hunted.."
Tomorrow, the saying would go, "When the auditor becomes to audited.."
I get so much fun doing the audit of other companies and now I'm the one getting audited.

I'll be handling the EASA Audit.
2 guys would be coming down to audit the company..They are most likely from the CAA(Civil Aviation Authority), which apparently is bigger than EASA although EASA is the one that governs everything now.. The history and all that.. I'll let you go google it..

Well, I hope that their audit will be smooth.
I think that they are tired after auditing all the other companies in their Tour-De-Loyang..
I shall bring them go Geylang eat durian! :)
HAHA!


Oh..
I'm having an upset stomach..Must be the Polar Puff this morning..
Cannot be T3 food..It's quality food there. Gotta love the Taiwanese food there..
Got the Kopitiam card, can get more discount! HAHA.. 5bucks stuff..cost only 3.50..

Jack Woods + Tiger Neo = Woman Not Enough.
Blockbuster of the year..
What is the world coming to man!
I would never think of cheating on my girl or anywhere near to that thought.
Don't they know the meaning of whole-heartedly?
I live my life based on a set of values, and I always constantly remind myself..
"Be true to yourself.."

But if an earthquake can move the a country a few metres off,
what can you say about the heart?
At the end of the day..If there was a control, there wouldn't be an effect.


Oh.
Mummy went for her yearly bone marrow checkup today..
Last year was -2.4, this year it's -2.5..
I don't understand the figures, it's about this BMD (Bone Marrow Density)thing..
But, a negative figure means it's quite serious (I think)..
The marrow is becoming porous already, therefore making it brittle..
I do not know the limits or the meaning of the values, but judging from the amount of medication she brought back, it looks quite serious..



There's this sinking feeling you feel in your heart when the loved ones around you doesn't do well, isn't doing well, has problems, is going through a tough period in his/her life.. This sinking feeling is almost like how Titanic felt when she sank.
When you have no light to guide you,
and no one to walk beside you,
I will come to you..



My hair is turning into the retro-hairstyle again,
I like it..
My colleagues say I'm living in the wrong era...Everything about me seems to link to "That 70s show" kinda effect they say.. Haha..


And yes, I envy those people who can stay connected on the go.
I can't..
I neeeeeeeeeed aaaaaaaaaaaa neeeeeeeeeeew phoneeeeeeeee.........




"And it's you when I look in the mirror..
And it's you when I pick up the phone..."

Driving at 90km/h is the speed limit..
Driving at 90km/h with your hand sticking out of the car is pure bliss..
Driving at 90km/h with your hand sticking out of the car and getting hit by a trailing branch is misery..
Driving at 90km/h with your hand sticking out of the car and getting hit by a trailing branch and letting the blood trickle down your fingers is stinging..



On a lighter note,
I don't understand a thing about what the lecturer was saying in Maths today..
On a heavier note,
I think I need 24hrs of Maths, Maths, Maths and more Maths..

I ran outta notes..
Hmmm...On a top note,
I think that I crossed a line,
On a side note,
I think I fell over the fence,
On a bottom note,
I think I might have dug a grave..
I ran outta borders,
so I'll use the middle.
I'm caught between the devil and the deep blue sea,
I think I better look it over,
Before I make that leap..

Oh wait, There's still the flip side,
I think that it might be the turning point..




But, can I turn the page?
