朽木百哉のブォグ

The scene was in a rotten wood-type of shackle bunk style, which had been dimly-lit; I had brought Serene into a place which is like a mercenary camp, where different groups gathered for a common purpose like those in Terminator 4.

First was to a clean, but old place, where my sister and her friend had settled down in the next room, and told me that my sister spent alot of anime accessories like the headband for FFVII was there; tiara-like, shimmering like the Matrix in Transformers 2; that room was in the exact same layout as my sister's room, with the exception of the greenish walls and old touch.  In my room was a queen sized bed, fully furnished where I can house my sword holster (backslung when I entered the place).

We moved out to scout the area after settling belongings in our rooms, and there was something which we need to take from a room; Serene had gone forward to the steel cabinet in the corner of the room while I waited for her in the same room, where there were 2 other guys; of one, whom wanted to get fresh with her by offering his help in a form of a "trade", which I had given him a hard glare, and asked who is his Platoon Sergeant before moving off; somehow, the 2SG sign appeared on my arm and his comrade told him that he will be in deep trouble after this incident.  Serene had left the room safely with me.

After walking past a few rooms, the noise that attracted my attention was behind me in less than 2 metres, I saw Toh Kok Chye, one of the specialists during my regular days, shouting at Alvin Toh, holding a P226 in his hand, loaded and pointing towards him; in less than 2 mins, I saw right infront of my eyes, the trigger had been pulled, and a bullet blasting through Alvin's head in a slow motion like Matrix.

Alvin had fallen to the ground and the feud is over.  It was the 24round Feud, which Alvin had been hounding Toh Kok Chye for many years even after leaving the military on something that had troubled Toh's family.  What is left is a headless corpse of Alvin, covered with blood from the neck without any signs of the remants of his head.  Stillness of silence was carried in the air after the battle has ended.

Switchscene to another place, that was on the road towards a forested area, hearing strong lusturing of the trees with the the strong wind; it appears to be some field exercise.

Mission objective:  Locate a flower shop and retrieve the precious goods, and prepare a note for the personal target, Codename: DEARIE.

Flowershop located in Century Square with precious goods, after acquiring primary key note from Artbox, where I made the preparations onboad my Pica1.1.  The mission order had been issued GMT 0800hrs on 29.12.09 0300hrs.

Further mission notes:
This mission is crucial as I had to show my sincerity towards dearie as she has been upset with me last night for not giving her a call in the late hours last night.

AAR:
Dearie had been delighted at the sight of the precious goods and the time spent eating at Halfway House had been wonderful.  The mission is a success.

An ad-hoc session was called out and we decided to head to Alps cafe which was in Selegie, after our classes.  Members of the hoard were myself, Tristan, Kulvim, Gary and Stephanie.

We had finally settled down at Le Barz as the purpose was more to look for a place to drink, chat and catching up.

For a moment, from Gary's car vehicle no, I had thought that he is staying in a private house in Kembangan.  Upon further conversation, he is actually staying a HDB apartment in that area.  Kulvim had been losing himself by playing card games, dice guesses and singing without even noticing the waitress' name, whom had introduced herself as Vanessa, as she will be serving our table.

I had a good chat with Tristan, who shared with us why he decided to do FX instead of shares, considering the compounding factor which can earn even more compared to stocks.  Of course, the massive risk will be there.  I had been advised by our previous lecturer; Mr Tan, that the risk appetite must be there in order to survive in this game.

Stephanie had told me more things about her relationship trouble, which had been plaguing her for the past few months; it seems that her boyfriend isn't committed and if I were in her shoes, I would feel utterly disappointed too.  Advise had been given to her to put her focus in studies and clearing them as the exams are near too.

I played a few rounds of dice guessing games with Kulvim, Gary and Tristan, and it comes out such that I had been drinking quite a few rounds from losing; tolerance level is still there so I can drink more.

Ring...a call coming from dearie....oh no!  I had forgotten to call her before she retire for the night; Mission order had been launched within for Mission Apology.

We ended at 3am when the place is getting ready to close for the day; it had been a great company; we all made our way back and notified each other upon reaching home safely.

Mental maximisaion is inching to its peak as the hours go by; just. a few more rounds of sets and I will have completed the first 100 pump in my life - reps for each upper body exercise had been raised to 100, and lower body at 50 for squats and lunges.

More to continue after breaking the mental barrier.


•クラドーの iPhone•

Finally, the first time that I can see the mall without having to queue up to enter the parking lot; had went together with dearie's auntie and family, after a quick meal at Jalan Besar.

The mall was well lit, freshly designed and not densely crowded; the lessened crowd might be due to the cooloff from after the fresh feeling of a new mall; something which the heat will on be on till total exploration is complete; the late hour might be in consideration too; many shops had been closed at the after dinner hour.

My cough had been recurring; might be due to late hours and the heat build up; so tonight will be a good time for me to sleep earlier for an emergency temperature descend.  Seeing dearie napping soundly after a good back massage keeps my heart warm, while watching a TV serial about an abusive and possessive boyfriend, that drives across the message of social assistance for those in distress.

A comfy afternoon at dearie's place while awaiting for the mask to dry before peeloff, a missed treatment to upkeep a healthy complexion which had depleted substantially throughout the months.

The goodfelt fellowship feeling stays even after the catchup session slipped late into the night...people I plan to see down the path of life...

At almost 12 hours upon arrival to home, after the NCX fellowship at Wendy's place, I'm on the road again, to see my beloved dearie at Sengkang...

Hope her tummy discomfort has subsided.


•クラドーの iPhone•

It had been a late night for us all, after meeting up for a Christmas dinner gathering at Wendy's place in Canberra Link, her place had been populated with friends and relatives, as well as the old bunch from NS Portal.

Jack, Yiwei, Matthew, Markus were all there and Wendy, being the busiest as host for the evening, had kept us all occupied with fun events, like Musical Chair even for the adults; unfortunately, I was out on the first round, much to Serene's delight...haha...

When the crowd had left, all that was left was the old bunch, as Andrew Liew had left earlier with his girlfriend, we had a small number guessing game, coupled with food and alcohol forfeiture for those who guessed the number.

The evening sub-ending was a mini card game which some had made winnings, some not.  Matthew and myself opted out as it was not our code to be involved in any sort of gambling even on festive seasons.

Wendy had given us an update on changes at our previous workplace, which still, is her present workplace; things had became more restrictive; the fun we all shared had been gone since the batches had left; Pioneer batch, Markus, Yiwei from Batch 2, myself from Batch 5 and the list goes on...even now on weekends, dress down is not allowed.

We decided that this will be an annual event where we can all catch up, enhance the Civil-Military projected fellowship and seeing each other through our lives together.

Serene wanted to introduce Isabell to Markus, whom both are single and available.  It might be a good chance for Markus to start finding his happiness in life; I myself being a friend, does not want to see him single all his life.  He will be going over to US near Chinese New Year 2010 to see his brother who has been posted to an overseas assignment for 3 months.

God bless this wonderful fellowship and keep it going.

An alliance had been formed in DipFM10, consisting of myself, Kulvim, Tristan and Stephanie, in sequence of age.

Despite my attempt to reach out to all, this would be the best I can do to find the best clique. Not forgetting the long chat we had on Monday, more fellowship awaits on 02/01/2010 after our International Finance paper.

It certainly enforces one truth: No man is an island, for The drawing of the Four has been formed!


•クラドーの iPhone•

The last day of a 2-day leave where there will be a half day at work tomorrow; thinking about those silly calls I have to answer really irks me.

Waiting for my beloved Serene now at Tampines MRT station where she will be passing a present to her cousin before we go for a quick bite; I had spent almost an hour sauntering Tampines 1's Challenger, which the decision on a bluetooth headset has not been concluded.

Should it be a Jabra JX10 Cara, or Plantronics Discovery 925? Bottomline is to get a good one, once and for all ad avoiding poor call audio quality.

Sweet surprise from dearie Serene that she has bought me a chocolate mint wafer from NTUC; packaging looks great enough to convince me that the taste will be good 


Just learnt about a serial molester who is only 15 years old that has appeared in Sengkang, thus the more I ought to be sending Serene home especially in the late hours after her classes.

The slumber had been deep; despite being able to awake from Zhao Chuan’s patriotic song, I had to sleep deeper as the mind is still tensed up like a maximum tensioned clock spring.

Tonight will be a make up training session prior to picking Serene up; an early night lies ahead as I need to report early tomorrow for my ½ day ICT callup.

Strangely, battery level stagnated at 100% for the entire evening till today, yet no connectivity to Gmail server. Tried via web and pop3 but still u successful to date.

Looks like it's really down till further notice. Hope I've not missed any crucial mails since last night.

It is a breath-thirsty move and yet certainly good as it trains my endurance and builds strength.

The dualist movement has disabled me from using the phone in the absence of a good bluetooth headset, which will allow me to do a multi-task to keep Serene company while 'on the stationary move'.

We had been talking about an agent, Kok Leong's Plantronics headset which is the Voyager that he had proclaimed costing over $200. Learnt from Serene he had mentioned that this is also used by astronauts who work beyond Earth's atmosphere so there must e substantial quality in the headset itself.

This could be one of my material Christmas wish, but the real wish would be being able to break out of the rat race and draw an apocalypse income.

3 more mins for returning to battlestation.

The previous night had been really a deep slumber at Serene’s place after attending Ah Wei’s wedding at UIC Building. In my mind, planning has been done for our official union through marriage, but not so soon as we have our studies to handle. Being able to leave home together for work somehow also brings our heart closer to one another – something which we will be sharing when we live together next time.

Just woke up from a deep slumber after lunch, the most heavenly sensation which one gets after a lunch and a comfortable position on couch, in an air-conditioned environment.

Tonight will be another lesson before the clearance of leave, where I’ll be on leave for 2 consecutive days.

An evening of present hunt begins. It's the season of giving!

The night of watching over the two new friends of the tank are over; fortunately, found the albino female who must've jumped out of thr tank and landed in Endler's jumper squad. Phew.

Quickshot rest had been done with completion of mask which had been missed out for many weeks.

I can rest assured that they are not stressed now, as I didn't want any mortality occurence in Ladies' tank.

Not a very comfortable experience at Bomb Centre this afternoon; could
be due to the incoming flu that has made delivery of bomb a little
challenging.

Mind's a little worried on the status of F2s as a few have died; could
be due to sudden temperture change of water.

Anyhow, I must continue to tell
myself not to worry and do my best to keep them well and happy.

Saw myself in a place which resembled my old home at Blk 99 Bedok
North Ave 4; a white cupboard that my parents gave to us in a 3-men
room.

Lenz was showing me something on a mini netbook and later gave it to
me as a gift.

Switchscene showed me in some place with greenish industrial plants
and tungstem lighting; part of which appeared to be light coming from
a Hong Kong streeted filled with rows of shops.

Fiona Xie appeared and told me that the netbook can be rented to me
for a few days on trial purpose on some mobile internet plan, which "I
can ask my friend to recommend you" should I be interested.

Sounds funny, especially when it was given to me by Lenz, yet now
appears as if I'm trying out some new internet services package.

I'm in my usual chamber again; this is the anticipated moment of event after lunch.

Serene had waited for more than 20mins for her lunch at Halfway House when stallowner cooked for those who came later. Basis of settlement: Perpetual Ban on that store.

Thinking through how people had put me under their thumb that I don't speak well and refusing to give me perm puts me in a mental position of why not moving elsewhere where I'm not judged based on my talking style not accepted to their standard? I've got other better places to move on.

Thoughts aside now since Ceasefire.

For the first time, lunch had been the most looked forward event of the day before knocking off.

As told to Wan, each day is becoming an agony so ir's no longer stayable a place. I'm so much happier during the lunch hour that I wished it can be longer.

Robert has tendered; any one in the right mind would to leave this hellpit once an opening has been found. I'm glad he made the right move.

Seems like Citibank isn’t paying enougb bonus to a particular of the employee, who called in early in the morning to dispute a 31cent increase of premium without prior notice. She has paid for it last year without questioning.

Latency = 365 days? Far worst than internet.

Deep sleep but 0.5 of 19 hours had been done. No sign of illness today, fortunately, but still had a oukey feeling about going to work in that damned blood-boiling, ear-banging and mentally-torturing place.

My days there has numbered. 3 years had brought me enough torment and building up of Dark Chakara that could launch a Death Punch and lethally wound any individual.

Serene had learnt about it as it was unravellednon our way back from her school last night. Another mad woman who said I sounded like taunting a fight when I was just trying to be audible in my explanation, to avoid fedbacked about being too soft. One doze of the chlorophyll-filled sponge can send her into Soul Society. 70 years old, go sleep and stop bothering people. SOW!

The tank should be ready for the fries that will be born in a couple of weeks; more plants for their hiding mounted into the substrate.

Saw some really beautiful male guppies at Polyart but the best value for money will still be going for them at fish farms.

Simply sickening after receiving calls from even an ex impotent agent who had been suspended and making a fuss about his third party claims, hung up on me after I gave factual explanations. Sickening Incident 1.

Policyholder's secretary making a fuss on form that we have faxed over for her boss to pay top up premium to coincide with Road Tax. It's just. a few words and she wants us to make a form just for her request. Sickening Incident 2.

Old man saying I sounded likr pushing his call away on his third party claim which is still under investigations. Sounded like waking up from his coffin and cannot understand human language. Sickening Incident 3.

Such are spurring me to leave this sickening place.

Bad awakening as I could feel a massive swelling in my throat resulting in swallowing discomfort combined with a fluey sensation. It had occured since last nigjht as I was doing my examinations at Kaplan.

Medication, rest and repeatedly till I felt much better in the evening for lessons.

Endler's death toll had climbed massively; I might not be having adequate housing to accomodate them all; but I guess not all have the same endurance; thus the toughest survived.

I had to divided Jumper Squad into 2 tanks so there will not be any competition for air, now fully uncovered.

Finally regeneration complete on the shields that had been breached yesterday. That feeling had been terrible.

Workout partially done that kickstarted the day; boosting hydraulics and bioreactor.

Hope Serene had slept well last night...hearing the snooze of the army boy beside me does flash memories of myself taking a long tripped bus to Bukit Timah Road where I served part of my Tour of Duty at Ammo base. The journey was long enough for a deep slumber.

Scumbag George Lim has replied the following prior to me my email shooting “In deed I made my money, just the company system change, if you were me you will do the same thing. There’s no hard feeling. Anyway you never join. Why you so concern so much”



Such a lame excuse when he has failed in the business. God knows how much debt he has behind him.



Let’s watch the reply from the next shot.

Another sneezy day ahead of me after awakenin to spells of multisneezes that I had suppressed with medication after reaching office; sunshine was pretty bright so today is predicted to be a sunny day with a sudden veiling of the sky under rain.

Back to work but still gloomed by the effects of lack of rest following a night of deep thoughts.



System hasn’t been cooperative so I had to some quick retification works while combating the pressure that comes from all over the place.



Gek Choo’s last day; one more staff leaving and it’s a good move for her; she has yet to know the More than Meets the Eye issue ongoing here, which she was quite surprised that myself and Alex are not perm to date, despite being with the organization for quite sometime. Alex had explained to her that Markus was the last to be offered perm position (seemingly)…



Serene had faced near-physical assault by a madman who stormed into her office and demanded to do road tax renewal despite explanations that facilities are not available at branch offices; further more, it’s not catered for customers to walk in for service.



The madman happened to be LAB’s customer who was cancer-stricken; sounds like a EC (Emotional Cancer) that cause him to stir up for a trival matter without a sense of civilized behaviour; a total barbarian.

Hit with the flu bug which had put me to deep slumber after lunch with medication; it’s a new module today after the exam last Saturday.

The windiness of Megastorm got out of comfort when it turned into Maelstorm, and seeing the multimillion raindrops being sucked towards Clementi Road reminds me of an unfortunate event which might turn into a natural disaster.

I had to move away before it gets heavier and turn into a cyclone.

Serene had popped out from her lecture theatre when no reply was heard from me; it's really a sweet surprise to seeing her.

Safety zone reached near foyer where raindrops on school garden made the place feel like Amazon Forest.

It started and conquered the Clementi skies, faster than the approaching of a locust colony upon a plantation.

Serene is already in the lecture theatre which temperature under conditioned air should start declining substantially, causing a mild chill. It's so nice to see her so happy and appreciative that I can send her to school, with my best abilities.

This evening will be Judgement III, for Financial Analysis. How has the rest prepared?

I'll be here till a lowered megastorm occurs; on safety reasons visually.

Haven't heard much from Andrew lately; wonder how he had been? Hope all's ok in the midst of year end rush for all of us.




•クラドーの iPhone•

It's late in the early hours of the morning of Judgement III, but I'm still planning a proper home for the guppies as well as those that were saved from dirty waters.

2 zebra loaches were introduced and have since saw no more new baby Red Ramshorn snails creeping upwards from the base of the tank. The ravage of the plants have ceased.

The Endlers need a good home, but something with a lid will be preferred considerin their jumper trait. Therefore, I have segregated them into 3 groups; namely infants, adolecence (jumper squad) and adults.

Just the manual water cleaning that is required daily to avoid seeinga tankful of dead guppies like the last time; the 3 sole survivors are doing fine, thanks to dilligent water cleaning.

I had better get some rest.

A little fatigue climbing over me while I get ready to make my way back home after sending Serene home.

It had been the first study session - extended time at my place, with a properly laid out table. Much had been covered until the actual exam later in the evening will I know the capacity of my knowledge absorption.

A little pre-exam anxiety can be felt even at this moment that causes an uprise of the biofertiliser.

I need some mindrest; the extended studies had also expended substantial mental chakara.

A quiet evening waiting for Serene, accompanied by the screeching of the Cricket Symphony of the Night.

What have we got now, non-considered compliment which was sincerely felt on my end, but was brushed off by Eric like dust on the table. Further disappointment on his personality and another sign of non-appreciation.



Conclusion: 50% reduction of commitment and my true output.

A rainy afternoon which the dust of Sandman hangs heavy over my mind; many had been drenched




Quite a couple of days without much updates here; so it’s the time now.



Christian had been nice askinghow things are for me; already given up hope on the Sunken Colony after getting that response from him prior to my question about non-perm. A simply unacceptable behaviour; very much a fiasco for a team leader.



Rain seemed to have died down, but the office still feels like a freeze chamber. Looks like there’s an aftermath of cold air which had been conditioned further, thus enhancing the enclosed Chill.

The flu has struck me again, leaving me compelled to be on medical leave for the day.


It could be the lack of rest that has brought down the hull shields that has been disturbed.

The experience yesterday was absolutely sore one, which I’ve already told those who are close to me. Serene, being the nearest to my heart, had also felt unjustified considering the massive contribution that I’ve put in even after office hours.

Well, not to mention, what the future lies here…

Massive depletion of energy after holding on to the rein of Dark Chakara which has begun to seep out as the hours go by; Eric has failed to keep me back to address my concerns with regards to my displeasure.

2 years of massive efforts and yet perm position was given to someone with less contribution, high MC and urgent leave rate.

Some blind management I'm working under.

What more do I need to say about this department where I was told during my appraisal "it's good to be confident in yourself" when the outcome was such that I'm still not appreciated for all the efforts I've put in all these while, only with words of encouragement without rightful actions to express utmost sincerity of retenance. Such actions only result in losing more important assets of capable people.

No wonder the Higher Council is right; they like working in a mess.

Just a pretty expected news after my appraisal; the outcome is such that I’m still under the 2nd Grades in my workplace.

It’s pretty dampening news in the morning, after reading my appraisal. Was told that my performance had been less better compared to last year. Had all my contributions for what has not been done by others all disregarded?

This time, there will not be any slamming of doors, throwing of shoes or my bag when I get home, but rather, I guess it’s really time to keep my eyes open wider for what’s around and better for me.

Keep looking.

I have to keep moving forward and not let these petty emotions get in the way, but not being petty on my part, as I had been disappointed to know that my efforts had fallen on the Berlin Wall.

Full rest done while staying over at Serene’s place after she visited my place last night with massive photo viewing.

While seeing her childhood photos, tears were somewhat brought to my eyes as it had reminded me of those wonderful carefree days as a child; and seeing her with so many of her cousins does bring about a missing warmth I had with my cousins, as they’re far more older than I am.

It had been a wonderful time spent helping Serene’s aunt with the moving from her old home to new home in Fernvale, so it’s Farewell, Bedok Reservoir.

Some revision was done on uncompleted section at Serene’s place before going to her aunt’s place for dinner; the first dinner held at her new home; plumbing is still incomplete so washing had to be done at washing area instead of the usual kitchen sink.

We had all watched the Taiwanses serial, “Love” which had been ceased at the climax, and that leads us to anticipate the next episode on the following week.

A black CLK200 cabrio spotted moving towards Clementi; a very familiar vehicle no; could it be Zhimin's new car?

Made it to office in time despite the disturbed slumber; weather had been a little warm as I noticed the increased temperature after making shifts to the mummy guppies into their “maternity tank” after moving 4 newly born guppies to the “nursery tank” last night; still on the trail to find a solution to bring the dropsy affected Rainbow male guppy in Hospital Tank back to nominal health.

A Perfect Storm is detected as I moved from the storm edge towards core of the storm, as sunlight disappears with each engine revolution from acceleration by bus driver on Bus 67.

Blood on the torpedo after the bomb base visit; could it be due to lack of lubrication in my intestine?

It was a 14min timeout which Eric had asked, have to keep this in monitor for the next few days; hope there isn’t any serious internal damage.

Red streak of iron odour detected when I was on the call just slightly before lunch; the 2nd occurrence of nasal blood loss within the last 3 days.

Serene had been worried after learning the news; just the thought of her has immensely comforted my heart as she’s ever been so caring and sweet…

I have to continue giving the endless love to Serene since we have decided to stay together for life. Such shall only be true when my actions speak for themselves.

A fry was born but was snapped up before my eyes by fellow mummy guppies before I could save it!

Missed another chance for them to be moved to the new guppy tank; more attention needed on the water to keep them healthy.

2 crowntail females have been moved to hospital due to white spots and bloodstreaks.

Left 2/6 of the tetras which I’ve failed to hand over to Melphis last night as he didn’t answer the call in view of busy with childcare….quite a sad thing despite exceeding my brim of energy depletion when trying to help him get something.

Alex had been comforting to tell me not to take it too much to heart on death of fishes; just have to accept the fact that some fish are more sensitive and death-prone if water condition isn’t right.

Breached energy field detected as the lack of rest has an impact on the engine performance; Serene had been afraid last night, after hearin the various ghost stories from the agents who visited her branch to submit cases and were discussing about it.

This was only made known on why she could not sleep while on the way back after a short visit to Clementi Floral; managed to get some plants for Holland Ram’s new home; one has died; another surviving in the filtered water.

It’s another Superstition date again. but I’m not affected by it; sometimes; it could be possible that the opposite happens; something fortunate might just turn out somewhere.

Serene’s had a headache from the moistened hair slumber last night; it’s always good to sleep with a dry head as scalp pores do open during the slumberland hours.

Been a little worried to the extend of popping over to be a nurse to take care of her; I need more strength from the above to keep going further...

Hope there’s no more fear of the Supernatural lurking in her head now.

Made it to work on schedule after the delayed-initiated workout…

It’s a little slumberish morning with the gentle splattering on the windowsill – the ultimate lullaby sound which induces sleep.

Workout blast done within 40mins excluded the crunches.

Just crossed the Raining Valley after lunch at coffeeshop just below my office; the noodles tasted really nice; a missed flavour of the past; traditionally-made.

Feeling puzzled at the way the club agent Eileen looked at me when I dropped by Serene’s office to pass her some foms that was obtained for her at the recent Citibank employee care roadshow in our office.

Another lapse in workout schedule that was proposed to be carried on even days of this week as I had been unwell on Monday with a lung spasm attack; fortunately Soul Sleep had awoken me else I would have parted to Rukongai; I can’t leave Serene here since my mission is not complete.

Swoosh…the rain battle has started for motorist on the road, a weather which brings maximum challenge to motocyclists, something which is much less intense compared to the rain on Sunday that had made our journey to get the Symbol of Union a challenging at the gate of Tampines 1.

Serene is a little busy, but seeing her certainly triggers a spell of happiness as it’s like seeing the other portion which makes my life complete, and able to bring my heart peace in the time of personal warring against the unhappy past, to gain back what’s all lost from my military days.

10 more minutes to returning to battle station.

Opening detected for my goal! Time to drop in a sign of interest.

Made it to office in time despite the disturbed slumber; weather had been a little warm as I noticed the increased temperature after making shifts to the mummy guppies into their “maternity tank” after moving 4 newly born guppies to the “nursery tank” last night; still on the trail to find a solution to bring the dropsy affected Rainbow male guppy in Hospital Tank back to nominal health.

A Perfect Storm is detected as I moved from the storm edge towards core of the storm, as sunlight disappears with each engine revolution from acceleration by bus driver on Bus 67.

Jemuel just dropped by after leaving us for awhile; quite surprised to see him but I’ve experienced total ignorance; didn’t even see him saying hi to me though I’ve greeted him at his appearance at the door way…

Guess the truth is out on the pride of Fillipino-Chinese from my Rolyn who is a pure Fillipino friend.

With a table less than half occupied, wonder how things will go for the rest of the day, despite a non-rushed lunch done at Maybank; the slumber had been deepened after staying over a little later than usual to chat with Serene and her mum about work, and acquiring our new home.

Haven’t heard from Andrew for awhile; could he be away from office? On annual / medical leave?

The maroon Porsche Boxter ha appeared again, this time at Tampines Central!

The contract is coming to and end on this very date. What will it lie ahead? Will there be news of perm conversion? Output had been massive, possibly more massive than even some perms who definitely are not able to hold a candle to me, velocitywise.

It'll be the third year with this company, and moving towards being in a contact centre; annual personal GDP is even less than 10%; what an inusult to
my capacity! Judgement will be in 20/11 since the actual completion date is 22/11.

I'm continuing a visual surveillance for a better opportunity; for where the money is, will I be. I have to upkeep this propegenda else I won't be able to have a capacity to provide and protect Serene with. The mission of all men; 男人的使命。

Forex trainin still ongoing before entering any real trades; one of the ways to break out of the rat race. Instead of using physical presence to make blood money, leveraging the time and parked investments will allow me to have valuable time with Serene, to make each and every moment last.

Hope nothing has been repeated here, for my goal of sharing life with Serene is in the making. All these, can come out beautifully with good financial management.

A rainy batttle while I made my way to HDB area office; it had been unusually crowded in view of the upgrading that had been ongoing at Level 1, while business as usual proceeded in Level 2, that had been freshly revamped.

The lung spasm had fortunately caused a jumpstart in my system; similar effect as Wake-On-LAN; mum had commented that fortunately I had awoken with relating reference the young doctor who had passed on in the sleep due to breathing difficulties. It had worried Serene a fair bit after she had read my sms that was sent duing the Attack. Could it be due to dust, or the stale wine that I had a couple sips, or the chilled papayas from the keep fresh container?

It should all be fine after some medication and recovery mode to be done on my Magnetised Base.

A deadly rush of toxification after a heavy dinner with Serene and her family as they dined out for her brother's birthday which will be due this Thursday.

Situated along Serangoon Road, there's a row of eateries called Teck Chye or the sort, reminds me of Lenz' Chinese name which carries a very auspicious meaning of attaining wealth.

6 courses done in the mildly chilled aircon dining area after a table haf been vacated from a previous group just before we were served. The yummiest was Mongolian Roasr Duck which tasted like bacon...simply irresistable, yet not to be done in large quantity. All dishes were in small serving ad yet suffucient to give me this depth charge.

Nites world and dearie, another battling week tomorrow.

So here I await for Serene in her school; it had been awhile since we talked about things between us; despite having spent much time together. Guess it could be the hustle of life, but that's not going to be an excuse; I have to learn for us to do things towards our togetherness, ie saving together, looking for a home together and making our home-in-hunt, our real home.

Even when battling on the road towards SIM, the though of her and her fairyish smile and laughter brings warmth to my heart.

The school is exceptionally quiet now as students have yet completed their classes; only with the gentle flow of a submerged-propelled water pump just a couple of steps to my back livens the atrium with a scattered group of people consisting of students, guys waiting for their gals.

It should be anytime, now, while a SIM cat scampered past me.

"Heartbeat" accompanied me at volume level 15, which pushes my thoughts to be driving in a RX-8 when I saw a Mazda 3 mildly bodykitted just ahead of me.

It's such coincidence that Andrew is in the same school and intake during my ITE Bishan days; so far and yet so near 10 years ago. So he must know one of my old friend James Goh whom I had been in contact with even after a couple of years after our graduation.

At the U-turn junction, I saw a Civic Type R SGV6226 that it' spoilers reminded me of Joyceline telling us that "it's an excuse" to put it on the car, that Kent had mentioned on it's stability functions. Likewise for guys' perception on gals carrying an expensive handbag that can do many more things.

Alex must be enjoying himself at Koh Samui now; learnt from Serene that it’s a romantic island in Thailand…

By far, the day has been welcomed before lunch by a barbaric agent who tried to be funny on the phone without even giving sufficient information. To him, “all the best for business”.

ACHOO…a signal of myself missing Serene while chilling “in” the 18 degreed r oom which is just beside my workstation.

Spotted a stray string emerging from the bottom of the left sleeve and decided to snip it off, since yanking doesn’t work…argh!! Accidentally made a small cut on the fabric…that’s going to make Serene upset; the shirt’s greatly adored, but have to schedule wearing as Alex has an identical piece, that we have already planned for myself on odd dressdown-weeksdays, and himself on even-dressdown weekdays.

Saw myself in classroom in where our lecturer for Corporate Finance, Ms Saraswathi was teaching us some fomrulae which seems to be used to decipher something that answers turns out to be local address; the classroom was beige-walled, unlike Kaplan’s white and purple theme.

Switchscene; saw Kok Keong from A&H going to take a plant from one of the students, and after he has left class, a student came up and it was Alex, who said “who ask him to take my plant, I’m taking it back” and he p ulled out a springy magnified version of a small plant which he had given me back then, froma plastic drawer.

Another scene shows me talking to Zheng Geping, one of the mediacorp celebrity with his famous trademark “xiao xin ah!”. He was sitting on a couch in white berms and white loafers, talking about something which could not be made out.

Pom. 7:16 AM. I missed my workout!

The results are finally out when my aunt happened to drop by yesterday evening and after refreshing my email.

Result: Failed, after confirming my student ID against the list.

It had dawned on me that I will be a step slower towards graduation...Serene had been very consoling and sweet to be listening when I did a minor analysis of what couls have gone wrong...the non-military ARR.

The evening was spent watching the new member of the community tank after some plant additions and another shelled friend just before slumber while chatting with Serene.

Plop. I had fallen asleep and thinking I was atill on the phone with Serene.

Sandman’s visit is over as the magnetic eyelid spell has vaporized. Phew, what a visually-heavy session that will be most comfortable for me to snooze on the couch in

The Citibank roadshow is still in the pantry so it will not be conducive for a deep sleep, 30mins.

The morning had been awoken with someone; seemingly Serene, telling me that my guppy mummies have given birth; that caused a jumpstart to my engine. One peep after finding the switch shows that they’re still asleep and no signs of fries wriggling around the “maternity pond”.

Lunch was a blazing beat while when I wasn’t armed with the Solar Shield while making my way to Maybank coffeeshop; variety is limited; and pretty sick of the food there actually; but I had to refuel, so, in goes the food and continuing to enjoy my “discounting factor”.

The carrot juice and biscuit really warmed my heart even when looking at them, knowing that they come from Serene who had got them for me, considering on my high FC though my work is deskbound.

Sandman is knocking on my door.

It has been really warm to be in touch with Serene’s brother, Andrew again after quite sometime.

Even from the email, sincerity can be sensed in every word and sentence that comes from him; and also learnt from Serene that he’s nice to everyone he knows.

The tune of “Maybe Tonight” rang in my mind as was driving along the highway to pick Serene up on Tuesday; that put me in a scene of myself driving a BMW 320Ci, with the top opened and wondering what would the scene be when her classmates see me picking her up at her school. Her mum also said likewise when she asked if I could give her male classmate a lift since he also stay nearby her…that will definitely put me in a silly position. Her other classmate also made it clear to her when he hinted on space availability in my car backseat.

Declined on all grounds.

The chilli red Ferrari once again spotted exiting Road beside Maybank along Changi Road with the roaring engine that cut the rattling sound of an old fan mounted on the beam of the coffeeshop.

Some terminology picked up on Forex such as bullish, bearish, candlestick concept and choosing the volatility rate.

Tristan had been reading about it for 2 years and our lecturer, Patrick, is a pro trader before he retired; haven't got to read his profile but he sure is approachable from his personality in the first lesson we had on Financial Analysis.

Learning more about this aspect can also give myself a valued knowledge that can be applied for personal benefit, financially in the right way, after learning the flow.

Woot. A quick doze-off caught. Tristan won't be sleeping soon as he's monitoring USD/JPY which is hyperactive now.

What is the purpose of displaying lunch schedule without the date, and ended up being reprimanded for not being responsible? This was what happened, and yet my own TM has been seen displaying favoritism and “protecting” the person who scheduled it, saying it has already been put at 10:40+am, but it has been seen without any dates…

Conclusion: TMs and management are always right; getting to enjoy their one solid hour lunch, while the rest slogged out, having to sacrifice lunch hours and getting “pushed around”.

I had been telling Andrew and Serene about this; something which had caused Serene also to emphatise with me on how irky is the feeling of being moved around like chess pieces on the board.

Back in my unit, I call the shots as I have a band of trusty men to help me execute the unit’s logistic operational readiness at each and every moment the call of duty arises.

Even Alex irked at hearing about my block leave getting approved only toward end of the year with 2 months’ allowance, yet leave applied 8 months ahead can be rejected due to “misfit of schedule”.

In MOM’s regulations, leave is an entitlement and the management should also make arrangements for duty cover in event a staff goes on leave; such has never been practiced here.

Here starts the 2nd of 5 modules of my course...time flies; 2 exams are over!

A sunny morning greeted me as I missed 2 Bus 67s that arrived in less than 5mins.

Fortunately on Bus 28 now; that should bring me to work in time.

I had been thinking what Abbey Shanti has told me yesterday; how things will be for me in the next 3 to 4 years to come. I'm definitely going to do what it takes to keep all aspects of life good; especially so for sharing life with Serene in future.

•クラドーの iPhone•

It's the time to rest again, gathering was done at Joo Chiat, where Serene's aunts and uncles, and also her mum who were there to see an Abbey - Long Poh Shanti, a Thai abbey who is well-known for his good guidance from calculations using our birthdates.

I took a go and decided to ask about my work, wealth, marriage and family. It had dawned to me that he could know exactly what struggles I'm going through, and when things will be smooth sailing for me. He had also passed me an amulet, which was said to give me protection; this time, I took it as it was real that someone can really give me sound advice in the direction to take, in order to be successsful.

Serene had asked me not to think so much; infact it wasn't an instant to leavd the Kingdom of God?


•クラドーの iPhone•

Under the killing radiation of the sun, only 3 out of 6 bowls were served, that caused a great unhappiness, coupled with the combination of a Forgotten Order - rojak.

The afternoon was mostly spent at the nearby Abbey's consult.

Chill gate opened which has brought an immense cumulative chill toward my workstation; tetras are still swimming happily

Wonder if Serene’s busy? She was sharing with me about Jolin Tsai’s wealth; in my opinion, if the person’s really wealthy financially, it’ll be wiser not to publicise it for safety purpose, as the most rich and powerful are usually low-keyed…such as Adam Khoo; though extremely wealthy financially, one look from his attire tells that he lives practical.

Just learnt from the couple of SMS exchange that this guy is called Kelvin from eduforce; requesting me to call him back when free; even refused to furnish further information when I asked; as I’ve never known him. Managed to track his full name as Lin Zhenxing but never known of such a person in my life.

Since I don’t owe him anything, there will be absolutely no necessity to return his call.

I made it in time this morning to work, despite the late slumber as I was baked into the night from the thermal-fan jet; a little quiet this morning but it had been a deep sleep, 6 hours.

The rice portion rate was 1.5, which I had to order another dish to compliment; else the lunch session will be a soil-swallowing similarity.

Looking forward to bring the shrimps a new home when meeting Ken tonight to deal the 2 glass tanks near Hougang Mall in the evening; finally, they can have a decent home. Pre-Kombat preparation can be done after dinner.

Thanks toe Melphis for the data cable, the PSP is able to survive another day, so soon to be, a mini portable movie device for Serene to watch movies without having to power up her TV at home, even while on the move in MRT – something I do, hopefully to keep Serene happy while she’s with me :)

Another battle evening, muscularly done, and chatting with Serene on the phone after her short snooze from the completion of some tutorial.

Indeed, much has been left out these days, which publication of occurences will be made soon; we were talking about her brother Andrew, who has gone for his honeymoon after the wedding dinner at Clarke Quay in a grand Oriental restaurant.

Serene has entered slumberland but not myself; the crescendo for the 2nd exam builds up as the day approaches; just T-2 to the 2nd Battle of the Financial Champions.

Alex has just departed for a short holiday with his wife tonight on a quickly-planned holiday which was "captured" at Chan Brothers' roadshow in Suntec at one of the weekends; the task left for me was to help feed his crystal shrimps till he's back next week.  That also served as a constant reminder as to when I can bring Serene for a short trip, in the midst of school and work schedule.  The leave portion will need some effort in getting as the year end is approaching, many might be clearing leave, especially for those family-established colleagues.

Gunmetal MRS spotted along Changi Road towards my office...the first cabriolet that my mind has settled on; though not a very new car, it carries a style of its own.

Sandman had conveniently entered my emotional galaxy after the ALS kicked in, followed by the cough syrup, that induces slumber and drowsiness.  Using my chakara to sustain myself throughout the day till 5pm, it had proved a great mental battle and conquering the body with the Mind over Body effect - a slogan which had been drilled in our minds during the BMT days when doing PT activities.

Darkness started to seep out after learning that Serene had hitched a ride from one of her classmates who also stayed nearby; a feeling which any guy will feel whenever his partner takes a ride from another guy, irregardless of his age / relationship, enhanced especially when not know n in person.

This feeling took awhile to be subdued as I had crossed thoughts of things such as if we should get married sooner, or should I be in the capacity to be zipping to and from home to her place, her school to pick her up in my BMW 320Ci?  I felt bad as those feelings caused a launch in Spiked words to Serene.

"Adam Khoo, Adam Khoo" rang in my mind as it served as reminder for my ultimate financial goal in life, which the income volume will be my sole platform of measuring success.

I must continue to input massive action for massive results!

No good.  At the hull breach on the vocal channel, I had to see the doctor and get some rest, before causing internal damage to the vocal synthesizer from the massive call handling day at office.

Feeling much better with a much silented throat and recovery, and at the same time, getting more revision on the past lessons.

It had been pretty touching to receive SMSes from my comrades in studies, yesterday, as I had been unwell; Tristan is running a fever and yet sustaining himself to coming for classes this evening; 2nd last lesson of this module, so maximum absorption must be done for the revision, to be back on track since I had missed yesterday's lessons.

Just one more lesson to go...keep the absorption rate high!

Graze-struck throat which caused massive discomfort that I could not go to school on this fated day...it's the 3-day endurance course on the week before exams;

Managed to do a dry-run, lecture-less when I dropped by Serene's place later in the afternoon after getting some rest.  The day had been a little warm, but not merciless...still no news from the appeal, thus, decided to drop an email as followup.

The energy had been massively sapped from the revision that I fell asleep pretty soon after laying on the Princess Bed in Serene's room, air-conditioned, that enhances slumber...

Nope...no lessons this Saturday; quite unused to the schedule as it felt like calmity before a storm.  I decided to start the day with a panda cory hunt at Yun Feng.  Took me a while to find 6 adorable panda cories, with their adorable suction-styled mouth and eyes that tell a tale...took home a couple of beautiful male guppies too; so what's left now is to find a matching partner to accompany them for beautiful offsprings.

The lapis sand had also been acquired to improve guppies' current habitat since it does not jeopardise the pH compatibility for guppies; the ex-tetra tank is now occupied by the 2 beautiful males.

Serene has yet to see the magnificent adorable view of the 6 band of cories that had found a home in my tanks...can't wait to let her see them!

Melted vision on the way back with a massive braker 67. Trip felt like a ride on The Viking with the forced fluctuated acceleration, making the trip pretty disturbing.

I must continue to hold on and not let the Flu Bug overcome the Biological Civil War.

Just 10 more minutes before reaching home, missing Serene massively while she's having lessons. Hope she'll be well-insulated at lecture hall.

Nice dress chosen by Serene; only thing is that material doesn't look very durable; hybrid of casual yet nicely done.

The dinner at Waraku is done on a pretty close proximity from the neighbouring table with a lady complainer who does not know how to appreciate the flavour of Japanese cuisine. If the tastebud is so sensitive to a little saltiness, the best place to avoid tongue corrosion would be Yong Tau Foo.

The adreneline rush had been surged after seeing Crystal's tank which is beautifully done up with barbs and mollies swimming happily in the tank.

The reason for shrimps' death in alternative tanks, which was meant for seperation of red Cherries, was because of the anti-chlorine that could've poisoned them. The salvage ones are return to their 'slum' which is pretty densely populated with Yamatos and a few potential red Cherries.

Nothing to worry for now as they manifest pretty quickly - the only next to best is to give them a proper home: decently setted up tank.

Today unarmed on mobile mode as iPhone had been left at home in view of Time Crisis.

Weather looks ready to “Raining Rain, Hallelujah”, so it had been wiser to be on the street with an umbrella.

Familiar taste of the meat during lunch at Maybank coffeeshop; it tasted like those canned stewed pork which was well camouflaged in the gravy. Canned food also have their own recipe so it’s easily detectable.

A little busy at Serene’s office so I decided to make my way back to office. Partial workout done today but still in time to make my way to office this morning; traffic is pretty healthy; thus a smooth journey to work.

Passing thought about the perm conversion status; though Serene had been really encouraging by telling me not to worry; it certainly strikes me a lot on each and every passing week without any news. Though appearing un disturbed on the surface, at the bottom is a stirring cyclone of tsunami which has not surfaced yet.

Last occurrence was almost a year ago.

We had a great time catching up with Alex and his wife Karen, while deciding to lunch at West Coast; a Monday which feels like a Sunday. 10mins’ drive from their place to the destination to fill our stomachs and chat over lunch; Alex was exceptionally quiet despite the time we managed to spend to catch up during the lunch in the cooled environment of Jack's Place.

His wife had gone up first after we went to visit the fish shop - Clementi Floral, which I've missed the last time I first came to Clementi upon the news from Alex on the good pricing of fish keeping accessories.

The shop is pretty cluttered but with a huge variety of fish, and aquarium acccessories.

I got a couple of female guppies and took a visit to Alex's place, which was really an unforgettable view; on the outside, it looks like an ordinary apartment, but the inside is so simple, yet so nice and cosy. That certainly helps to inspire our new home!

The final departing for East was done near late afternoon, with the last trip up to get missing guppies.

Just got teased by Christopher when he was going for lunch with June and Kent; “hair so messy”, so my reply was “luan zhong dai shuai”.

Workout had been missing this morning as I had been set on Quick Charge mode; the past 2 nights were late in view of settling down the new roommates.

17 more mins to the completion of today’s delayed lunch; after a verbal wrestle which was a “walkover” when the agent’s line was dropped beyond my control.

Serene’s office had been vacant when I reached there for my Weekday “healthy drink delivery routine.

The security lady was in a green top which I couldn’t make out, and teased me for not getting her anything; she could be on the way for lunch when I made my way there.

Agents started to flood Serene’s office after 10mins or so, where I decided it is time to make my way back to office.

I’m glad that the assignment had mostly been done, with the exception of the last part of research

The trailblaze was done within 5mins prior to my weekly visitation to Serene’s office. It appeared bright, but without the presence of Rayblades that could potentially sear through the fabric of my shirt.

Quick detection on vacant seat at at Tampines Mall Kopitiam. Finally, the refuelling can be done.

In an airconditoned enclosure, one can imagine the overhead just on the aircon itself - almost like airconditioning a mansion on this gigantic block of lecture theatres, classrooms filled with all walks of life, be it knowledge-seekers or even those who gives care to the beautiful garden and mini water splurting display.

System temperature brought down to a nominal state where there will not be the initialisation of Bio-cooling through dissipation of PL-Type 01: Perspiration; a taboo before my dearest Tifa Serene Lockhart.

Clock's ticking towards the 10th minute, bringing the 2 Point Balance session to 25 minutes.

Black Honda S2000 roaring on the road just outside Blackmores Drive but could not see the driver beyond the small glass pane and soft top.

I'm early, reached SIM in 20mins from Wilki Edge.

45mins more to the completion of her class!

A yellow Ferrari F430 spotted slipping out of the road, driven by a middle-aged man and turning into 6th Avenue; one of the estate of the Rich and Powerful.

Sunglare trip where eyes are shielded by Oakley Square Wire 2.0.

The last male survivor guppy got from Polyart has died when I awoken this morning; that sets me worried for the rest of those that were just introduced.

Could it have something to do with the water pH level? I had better get it checked before this tank turns into a grave for more fishes.

Guppies are more or less settled now that the death toll has been eliminated; 4 more to join the sole survivor.

Though not much choice of females at Colourful fish shop at Balestier, the guppies are beautiful and heathly; took my time to select and now the tank is
livelier. Lesson learnt: Not to get guppies from Polyart or Clementi Florist considering the 100% death toll for all females bought from there.

Serene had dozed off after a back massage before I left her place after picking her up from school; weather had started heating up, so tonight will be another Wind in the Willows.

Goodnight world, dearest Serene and family. May Sandman enter and bring me to Lalaland well.

The phone started to ring and the name 'Amy HP' appeared. An old friend whom I've not heard from for ages.

When I answered, it was her mum who addressed me by my name, asking me if I have her mobile no. I replied that this is the no that I have. Only through further conversation did I learn that she had left home and didn't return for some time. She said 'please ask her to come back and tell her that I've forgiven her, when she still has the chance to see me'. For a moment, I was baffled as she had always been very close to her mum, but what had caused this?

Her mum sounded real upset so I consoled her and assured her that I will do my best to help find her. That last sentence sounded really dire. Strangely, her mum didn't receprocate when I replied her...only then I realised that it's a dream.

6:57am with the flowing sound of water.

2nd spotting of the pink RX8, with a badly cracked and broken tail, that is parked along Caltex station at Changi Road.

This car have been spotted on 21/09 when we did the fish hunt at K&K Aquatic Centre.

The death toll in my guppy tank are increasing...by far, the following are the deaths that occured:

1x male guppy
1x female guppy
2x Holland Rams
2x female guppy
1x female guppy

The orangey pregnant females bought by far seem to sink inyo death quickly. Seems like the last female is also on the death bed; there could be something with the water, but by far, the male is surviving well.

Test swop done and realised the cause of immobility is due to bladder inflammation and affected must be removed and destroyed.

Let's pray hard that the population will stop decreasing.

Red fat Ferrari zipped past Bras Basah resembling 'red apple' in Serene's fish tank.

A maroon colored SLK200 was stopped on the pedestrian crossing, SGD100R but driven by a 40year depreciated lady. All comments reserved.

I've entered the Fiery Cars Zone near Sunshine Plaza, it'll be usual to see a few more exotic rides, while also wondering what lies in these drivers' financial blueprint; how many of them are successful on the same margin as Adam Khoo?

The crafting to success on with life as the object of sculpture continues.

Just awoken from deep slumber; dreamt of Serene hitting me when buying only 1 cup of bubble tea at Cup Walker near her home.

Wish I can be at home now and recovering on loss sleep.

A pretty tasty lunch which contains the most potent essence in the Order of ALS agents: Coconut Milk. It causes the lights in the visual apeture to flicker, followed by force shut of the Eyegates.

It's still having an effect on me dispite being away from lunch for almost 3 hours.

No lessons tonight, so I can shop visit at Clementi and see Serene tonight!
