Quite an easy session as it is the first time I'm attending it; though the weather proofed to be conducive for slumber, it's a no-escape as every session is compulsory.

Today was the orientation and only those new routines are executed, such as usage of equipments through gym orientation, Dynamic Stretching; some new moves are added and we could be dismissed at 6:30pm...the only ordeal was the exiting of camp as cars are lined on a singular file where each are checked upon exit. Gave Alex a lift and did lots of catching up while he was in my car, and during the intervals between the RT session.

Serene's very near my home as she is visiting one of her aunt, who happened to be staying in the same town as me; just about 10mins' walk and less than 5mins' drive from my place. Tonight will be the continuation of the remainder portion of Red Cliff 2; we could go elsewhere first before completing the show too...works in progress in my mind now, while planning to study with her tomorrow.
He stayed motionless in his tank even after touching his head and prodding him...that's so unusual for the last few weeks...not eating, not moving, eyes closed.

Mum wanted to send him off yesterday, with 3 Soka chants but he started moving, thus kept him back...

It is indeed that his time has come and he has to go...at least I've known that I've given him a home when he was abandoned by the previous owner many months ago. Somehow, missed those days when he accompanied me in my room, swimming around his little basin home and popping his head out to see me.

His name is 置き皮, meaning Big Shell.

Goodbye, my dear pal...
Just refuelled after eating yesterday's evening's leftover fried rice, dressed in pepper and added some coolant to my furnace-temperated engine.

The MP3 ripper isn't functioning correctly when I was trying to extract a chorus from one of Serene's favourite song, to be succeeding the current ringtone, 蝶恋, which, according to her, is a sad song...oops, didn't notice the lyrics but the composition of the music, along with Queen's voice made a good combi.

Sludge clearance to commence in an hour's time as the oiliness in the cuttlefish balls and sausage has caused a little discomfort in the throat.

ICQ tone came through my phone; it was Serene's message as she had already taken lunch; mine will be in a while as the previous refuelling was for the morning; dad & mum had gone out for their own time together for lunch, sister still in slumberland, with only myself and 5 tortoises awake. Tortoise Lord seems to be unwell and not moving even when prodding him and touching his head...don't tell me that his time is coming to an end soon?

Official lunch is here!
Awoken after an 8 hour deep slumber...anything more will trigger a sensory disruption.

I'll be going for my first RT session later at 4PM...not sure how this ordeal will last.

Warmth of heart passed through me when Serene told me about the comfort of being in my car while we were watching Redcliff 2 yesterday. Though a chilly evening, the shelter provided by the car had made our "mobile movie centre" session pretty comfortable.

Blog choke detected...thoughts have not been properly composed yet but somehow, just want to leave something here...

The volume of blog has increased recently, partly was after knowing Serene better, realising on our personality match and the development of my liking for her...it's her personality that brings out the best of me, such as breaking the icicle formed around my countenance, resulting in me smiling more, shedding the extremist part of myself and learning to take things naturally, while continuing to do my best.

Continuation of the thoughts on a postponed timing.
I had just entered my room after spending part of the evening with Serene, watching Red Cliff 2 on the "mobile movie centre" in my car when we took a visit to Elias Park. Wind chilly carpeted in red sky accompanied us, as I showed her my photos during the army days of which a few had been "shortlisted". Beating the cold to a certain extent, we decided to move "indoor-mobile" as the wind had been getting the better of Serene despite being armoured in a demin jacket.

The hunger had been somewhat subdued by eating a crispy version of the chicken bun, which emitted smoke as if an explosion of the oven will take place while warming it..at least it was warm before entering the bio-fuel processing chamber. The show had been wonderful but Serene was already tired and dozing off towards the 2nd half; we watched till the battery ran flat and decided it was time to send her home; afterall, resting on bed would be the most comfortable haven.

Sweet feelings spurred between us, as we certainly do enjoy each other's company very much; deep in my heart I've developed a fondness towards her...simply want to show special care & concern to her, guard her health, study together...there're so many things that we share in common ...this may be a repetition of what had been said in the past, through my mind, but required as it s a daily reminder and constant emotional check as to why do I like her so much...

There is a long term plan ahead which I've already set in my mind, to make them come to past with constructive actions; first, would be to improve my personal development, diversification of funds while I work and lastly, the Grand Union that will yet be another mark for us both. Despite the condensed time of knowing each other and being so close heart-to-heart, there are still many things that we can explore in each other's heart, to bring out the best and iron out any creases that we may face when moving forward.

Time to tune down my turbo which has been much exhausted, but yet naturally regenerated at the sea breeze...
Managed to pick Serene up at 10PM with a smooth flow of traffic as I made my way to to her school. She’s dressed in a beautifully-braid-sewn sleeved top and got her favourite ice-apple tea from the nearby fuel station on the way.

Her lessons aren’t too busy and will not be as tired as attending lessons during a working day. The smile on her face had been very different as that I have seen 3 weeks ago when we first met in person, and getting to know each other in person better.

The journey home was pretty quick as the evening’s traffic was exceptionally smooth, less-populated road and clear weather. Mr Muscle has kept the windscreen cleand & clear , which Serene also noted that the side are clean, later only realising that I’ve wounded the windows down after we reached her void deck and sat in the car chatting about many things about work, study and our relationship..especially how I teased her that the glass panels have been so clean that they have been wiped out of existence! I’m going to get a beating when she reads this…oops :x

The line marking on our palms are also coincidentally similar though not identical…it’s just so unlikely to see such signs around; it doesn’t even exist with my biological twin brother though we look identical at far proximity.
Many thing has passed through my mind every day and certainly every moment…even Serene has reminded me gently and sweetly that I’ve thought too much…maybe that’s a hazard brought over from all unhappiness in the past, but that sorrow has began to fade away as time goes by…it has been amazingly sweet to know that Serene understands me this well despite the short time span of getting to know each other, before realising an attraction developed towards each other.

I guess the Zodiac compatibility carries certain truth as to how we can develop our relationship to this extent…though there’re still many things yet for us to discover about each other, I still want to ensure we are both on the right track, striking a clear balance in emotional development, as well as being able to understand and compromise towards each other’s shortcoming in anyway. These are the two most important factors in any relationship to last for eternity.
The amazing thing is that she is able to bring out the unspoken expression of personal emotions even with her demure personality…certainly there must be something wonderful about herself…that’s just simply her…
