2009 has started and so did sch. Holidays seemed so short! Wished tt it was longer. The month of december for me was so awesome as i was out like more than 7/8 of the time! New year eve celebrations was at pump room microbrewery at great world city. We could only gather 7 of our guys then but it was gd enuff for celebration. We ate at kenny rogers first. Well dun really think its tt great. The chicken was not tt awesome! Not up to expectations. Spent abt 20 there! Afterwhich, we went to the pump room. Well wasnt tt easy getting a place at microbrewery tt day. We only decided abt new yr celebration plans the day before. So we didnt have enuff time to make reservations. The initial idea was to have it at clark quay pump room microbrewery. But that damn place was fully booked! So we were finding for many other options. In the end we decided on great world city pump room as its the same place but a much less happening venue. However, things were quite awesome there as we managed to see the fireworks from there unlike the previous yrs. We ordered two towers before new yr started. Scottish ale and india pale ale! I think the scottish ale was quite gd! Didnt make any resolutions this time for new yr. Didnt wish anyone myself. Tot sending msg thru handphone is quite a outdated thing to do. Somemore the network would be so jammed at that time. So yea only msged those who msged me. We decided to go tf2 ryte after we finshed our IPA. Was quite terrible laa. But still fun. Reached home only at 7am tt day.

Went for running on Fri after ages. Went with shalu, shanthu, Shameni and raja to macritchie early in the morning at ard 9. Me and raja did one guys route, followed by a gals route. It adds up to abt 7km plus. But running again at macritchie after a long time was a nice feeling. Once upon a time, tt was like my secondary home. Have been trainging for cross country from sec 1 till jc there! The place has been changed quite a bit. But yea, wasnt tt easy running tt much of distance after a long time. I know i cant compare my pace with last time but i did ok for my current standards hahaha. At least didnt stop.

Saturday was jj's 21st birthday. Seriously, they had so much of drinks available for free but not more than 5 ppl went to ask for those. I was quite surprised. If it was a indian party, bet the drinks would have finished. I took 4-5 glasses of tiger beer. Its never lousy to drink free cold beer u know haha! had the opputunity to meet a number of trackers tt i havent seen for quite some time. Not bad at all. Sunday was my soccer game at bedok south. We were seriously lacking all the key players in our team. But somehow, managed to make up one with wat we have. We didnt expect to win from the start cos we knew that the opponents were very strong. Surprisingly, almost everyone played above expectations. I was happy with the way the team was woring despite losing. cos there was some sort of team work this time ard. We even created a few offside traps. Really respectable performance. Guess i should change my match agent already cos he gave me the most fucked up fields of all. Ws really pathetic. And he expected a full sum of 90. My team said they wun pay anything more than 50. In the end we only paid 50 but that match agent started making noise. But yea not much he can do. He deserves wat he offers. We got a better field for next sunday's match. One of our fav teams in fact. Gonna play as a defensive midfielder this time ard. I jus wanna get out of the usual right back position i play and start focusing on midfield so tt i can run up and down. Its would be better for me cos i always run up as a right back but its very tiring whenever i have to run back to defend. So guess this position will let me do wat i want. Looking forward for the game.

Monday was first day of sch. Damn boring i have to say. Introductory lectures only so yea nothing much. Headed back home from sch and met up with krish raja and ashwini after tt at northpoint's sakura. didnt eat there cos i ate at home. Left to the airport after tt to send jj off. A really nice fellow. Felt pretty sad when he teared after hugging his mum! Its always the mum tt misses the son the most it seems. Could see it very clearly on how much she was gonna miss him. the dad was pretty cool. Could see that he was controlling his tears back. Well hopefully he enjoys the 4yrs there and studies real well like he always does. He should be fine cos he is capable of anything.

Today went for running again at macritchie. Well if u were wondering why suddenly i have started running and all, its simply cos my ippt is on the 17th this month. I know that i suck at my running and fitness now tts why before ippt, i am trying to regain a silver-gold std! Dun really expect gold tt much cos my body aint like before. Can feel tt its harder to run nowadays. Krish joined us this time and he too did the 7km plus route. Guess its good for SFC too for soccer cos both of us can run better now for the games.

Hae been home alone or almost alone for the past two weeks already. Really suck eating outside food every single day. Not been eating well cos i really got sian after the past 2 weeks. My maid is only coming back on the 13th. Abt 6days left. Its quite scary to sleep alone at home but somehow i am managing it. Not bad so far. I am more independant then before which is gd. And yea, think would be much better when my maid comes back cos i can sleep without any fear. Gonna start sleepin early for this em cos last sem this is wat tt played me out. Its pointless to go sch when u re dead tired and sleepy and not absorbing anything during lectures. Should sleep by 12.30 this time ard so tt i can have sufficent rest for the next day's lesson. And yea gonna cut down on outings and other nonsense. Guess i gotta work till 12 before i go to sleep. Cannot afford to waste my time on unnecessary stuff all! Studies come on top of anything else for me and i have no choice but to stick to this policy for the next few yrs!
