Im back from a 6 day sailing trip, darker, better, happier(surely much happier, thanks to that person) thinner(hopefully, havent weight myself~) and with a "jermen" slang ya? ill talk about that later so let me take a super deep breath and start talking about this trip. In summary i would call this sailing expedition a combination of OBS and sailing. yup, we've climbed rocks(real high ones) trek through untreked forest (got me some nasty cuts everywhere)and then of course lots of sailing. i mean LOTS LOTS LOTS LOTS and did i mention LOTS? its very enriching really, we get to learn navigation and steering the boat and guess what, when its ur watch, the captain dont help. so you can imagine sailing in the mindless ocean without seeing lan or knowing if you are going the right direction except using the GPS system and this compass globe. learnt lots about all these, waves, tide, direction, lots!

ok lets cut the chase and go to the story telling

day1.
crap, raining so we were delayed for few hours so end up setting off late. and when we finally set off, EVERYONE got sea sickness, there was lots of puking business going on everywhere ( i puked 5 times in a row and i mean continously) that cool huh? good for me, i became well after the puking while there were still many dead bodies around. we continued sailing through out the day, i cldnt eat anything so end up not eating the whole day. at night, we were split into watches and mine was the last watch. being the usual me, i didnt sleep at all through out. i helped the other watches too and had a chat with one of the crew, a german engineer, funny guy really, brings lots of laughter through out the trip. first day i made friends with 2 guys mainly "chairman mao" min zhe and "6 pointer" Jocius(dunno spell correct not) more fun to come later. ok i go slp now shall talk about the other days on the next FEW entries

happy birthday to me in 2 days time. this years up coming birthday gives new meaning to me or should i say since my 16th birthday onwards, every year i celebrate my birthday with a new condition to life. ok not excatly celebrate. when i was young, i always look forward to my birthdays. i always wanted to tell the world so i can get attention. yup, i loved attention in the past when i was younger but since my 16th birthday, every year is a big jump, like suddenly i have to grow up alot and i started to dislike people celebrating my birhtday or rather i want to play down my own birthday. every year means more reponsibility, more expectations, lesser time to achieve dreams, closer to dying. i am going to be 18 this year but i felt i did little to achieve anything in my life. i realised i always keep looking for achievements one after another. after one is done, do more things. do more things. and some more things. recently, theres this sailing expedition for NYAA gold. joining the sports club, dabbing a little in politics. i would somewhat like to spend my birthday this year in peace though but a promise is a promise friends, so ya........... happy birthday gim kai, time running out, time to do something be somebody.......

Ladys and gentlemen, lo and behold, im gonna be a grand uncle. oh yea, a grand uncle. can also be know as the brother of your grandfather.image that. jsut found out today, my nephew's wife (who is 20 this year ) is expecting a child AND another cousin of the same extended family gave birth (she is my age by the way) so my family is pretty confusing right now. i was tell me auntie (who by the way is that child's great grand aunt) that she would most likely see her great great grand child if this keep up. i appluad my cousins and nephews effort at answering to the nations call of having children.

serious now, both families arent well to do and they dont even sum up to gross income of 1500 per month. both guys are still in the army leaving their wives at home.

thoughts to keep in mind. dont be an idiot
