Went to NUS for the matriculation fair as well as registration. So many kiasu ppl already started to q up. Lol... Anyway the process is very fast but I forgot to bring my tuition grant application form. Have to drop by sch to submit it tomorrow. Zzz...
Anyway decided to get a labtop so that my sister & I can use it at the same time. No more arguments about who uses it first or who uses it longer. An extra computer is also gd. Sometimes if I ever need to rush assignments at night at least I can work outside the room. Still in the consideration of which one to buy. But I have a gd idea I will get fujitsu or NEC. Their deal seems the best & most convincing. But it's so ex. Lol...
Everything is so confusing. Esp the CORS system. All the SS that I wanted to take clashes with the pre-allocated timetable. With my time table, I have to start running in mornings. No choice. Most of the days, I end late. Zzz...

It's finally my turn to say this. ORD lo! Phew... after 2 long yrs of wait. I am so glad that I am gone which means none of that all is my business already. Anyway, I spent a really gd 1 yr plus at my unit. Some of my best NSF days are there. But I left it all behind & ready to move on.
This friday, I will be seeing some of my batch boys again like frank & vignesh whom were my best friends in my trainee days. We were such close friends that I miss them a lot. It's good to see them again before vignesh leaves U.S to continue his studies.
Will be seeing lina on sat for dinner & probably do some shopping as well.
Sun will be seeing my buddy shi xuan. Will do some catching up as I haven't seen her in camp for a long long time.
This week will definitely be a busy but pleasant week. =)

Went for the surgery at National Dental Centre yesterday. Reached at bout 11:30 am. Had my mom to sign the consent because I was below 21. Changed into the clothes they provided. I was Then my mom and sister left the hospital while I waited for the surgery. It was definitely a long wait... Plus I was so hungry & thirsty cause I had to fast after 12 am. Got in at bout 1 pm.
The only thing I remembered was lying on top the bed & after the oxygen mask was placed, everything was blank. I could remembered telling them which bed I was after the entire thing. After that, knock out again. Lol... My lower lips was very numb when I first got up. Can't even drink properly. You would drink half & the other half would drip all over. But I didn't care much. I was very thirsty already.
Then they brought my removed tooth & my mc to me. Had stitches in my mouth which I have to remove next week. Mom & sister came along to fetch me out of the hospital. Got 8 days mc from 25th july to 1st aug. ORD lo! The timing couldn't be better. Just that next tues I have to go back to clear my FFI.
But hearing what they said, I consider my recovery to be quite fast. I could already drink properly in the evening, with the numbness gone. Plus, I could even bite a little. What's bothering me is that there is still some blood occasionally. But this is normal as the doctor said. Hopefully sun I can already eat cause I asking lina out for lunch. Plus, I am giving up my mizuno wave run. I am worried that running might worsen my condition.
*My sister is sweet. Haha... She made honey drink for me. One big bottle of it. Lol... for me to endure thru the night. Thx. =)

Went for my dental FFI on wed. MO said that I had 4 wisdom tooth & recommended me for a specialist.
Saw the specialist at NDC today. After realising that the 2 wisdom tooth on my right is responsible for the ulcers & pains during chewing, I decided to take them out. Moreover, the teeth nearby showed signs of decaying. Not much choice I have. As well as the 2 tooth on the left side as well. Might as well just do it nicely once & for all.
Went for X-ray & blood test, he gave me 2 options. First remove 4 at once. The second remove 2 first & the other 2 nx week. Decided to go for the first option. I need to be present at 11:45 am tomorrow. It will start at 1 tentatively, ends in an hour but I will be asleep till 5pm.
Some considerations after tomorrow. Will spend some money outside to do up my teeth properly. Doc's conclusion was that my gums are weak as well...
Gave up mizuno wave run this sun. Wanna have a gd rest after tomorrow...

This week is a rather busy week. Left me with no time to run. Only have time to manage a 25km on wed and that's all. But I treat it as giving it my legs a rest. Thurs we had a farewell dinner at sukanthai for kris. I am really sad that she's leaving so soon. She's such a pleasant lady to work with throughout my NSF days. But I feel happy that she's leaving cause she can move to higher grades. All the best to you.
Yesterday, I went out with lina after work. Met her up at tampines mrt. I think I also very silly. I gave her the whole set of my phone to use but I forgot to provide the charger. Lol....
Bought tickets for Red Cliff. Been wanting to watch it as well as I heard from friends that it's a rather good show. So we got the tickets for 9:20 pm show. So hot favorite that we can only get e tickets 5th row from the screen.
We went Ajisen Japanese to have our dinner. She had scallop ramen & I had dry chicken teriyaki noodles. The chicken wasn't too bad but the noodles were full of msg. Haha...
Walked ard after dinner just to wait for the show. Had ice cream at swensens instead of walking ard aimlessly. We shared topless 5 together. I liked the mocha flavour the best.
As I hoped, Red Cliff was quite a gd show really. I liked the show a lot & I am looking forward to the nx chapter of it. But the downside is the show is very long & some parts of it are unneccessary which drags the show along with it. It ended quite late at about 12. Saw lina home before taking a cab home.
Was really happy together after the torturing days of going back to work. With 12 days more to go, I guess there's nothing much to whine about it anymore. Plus going out with her really lightens my mood a lot. Honestly, I am already looking forward to the next date. =)

Went out with lina yesterday. Met her up at city hall bout 3pm. I knew her over at xi lei's party a few weeks ago but didn't went up to talk. =x
We went for coffee together and sat down to have a chit chat. Then we just stroll around shopping centre and slowly talk with each other lo. Got to know quite a bit about her. But since this is the first time going out, still a bit shy lo. Haha...
We had our dinner at spagaddies. Then we walked to bugis street to shop a bit more. She got a orange floral dress from there. Then I just send her home and slowly go home lo. Haha...
Had a lot of thoughts at the end of the day but I think I would just keep it to myself for the moment. I really had a great day. =)
Good thing is nx fri can go out again. I wish friday would come quickly... =)
P.S You took my breath away...

Took mc for yesterday. Feeling very bad. I sort of totally lost my voice in talking. So might as well take a break from work. Just need a break from everything. But the stupid thing is ppl are still messaging me about work. Hey man, I am on mc okay! Anything can settle the next day.... argh....
Was slightly better today. But there's so much work to be done when I was back. What is this man... Nvm, just that mere 20 days to go. I tell myself to finish it good and sweet. As I worked I am still recalling the good old days. Why are things so different nowadays... Everything is just so stupid, nothing seems right...
Anyway, just went to clock my mileage after work. Though nt feeling very well, decided not to slack after all cause the body would just switch off after a while. Went for a 2.5 hrs run, clocking my LSD (long slow distance). I needed this build up towards my end of year marathon. I wanna go for a personal best. Hopefully somewhere close to 4 hrs. Not sure if I can achieve it but I am definitely giving my best shot.
So this brings my total mileage this week to 50km. Shall resume my 60km nx week. Don't wanna push myself too hard in case I fall sick again. Plus I have to be on my best tmr. =) Sat is just tmr. I am excited. =)

Went for NUS hill runs yest. Dkw wasn't feeling well and didn't run. So we had DO, DR, wendy, passionrunner, mto & me. The run was a okay one with exception of a few hills who took me and left me walking. Found out that wendy was really very fast, DR n DO were even worse. They were ultra fast. Passionrunner was gd as well, very strong mentality. Got to know mto was actually a lecturer from NUS. If only's he's from my course... Hmm... went to have guo tie and drinks after the run. A great run. Going again on wed.
23 days to ORD. From that point on, I can start to lead my own life again. I will be back to studies once more. Some things to worry is that if I can ever cope after not seeing homework n books for so long. As of today, I have handed over almost all my job so it's time to pass the baton.
Just to share something nice. Got the courage to ask someone out again. It's been so long since I ever did that. Really looking forward to it. Wish sat would just fly to me tomorrow. Just gonna go have a good day on sat. Hope it just turn out fine. =)

Went out with yaxin, mar & glen yest. Lunch was at Jack's Place. I had fried dory fish fillet. Dessert was strawberry ice cream & coffee. The food wasn't really tt good anyway.
Went shopping for clothes. Couldn't see anything eye catching. Glen gt himself a pair of jeans and tt's it. Wanting to get tops but couldn't find anything suitable.
Went to marina square to catch 21. A nice show really. It's bout a few maths whiz gathering to learn to beat blackjack at casinos where they won big. Was really interesting the way they kept counting in getting the highest probability in wining.
Then we went suntec city. Actually wanted to have buffet for dinner. But I very scared of buffet. Eat 1 time buffet I can run for 2 weeks but the food seems to be still there. So I always prefer any other food except buffet. Had dinner at fish n co. We all had seafood platter. The prawns was gd but the calamari seems a bit overcooked. The mussels even worse, it was so hard. The only nice thing was the fries.
