it's the holiday season and i'm gonna be broke again. money just keep on seeming to be flowing out of my wallet for many reasons and the bulk of it is for F&B.
it's come to the point that i'm seeing less and less worth for good food which but provides a momentary pleasure when all that is needed is actually proteins, carbohydrates and some fat maybe. money in hand should be invested in assets such as a PSP or other more measurable items. the price of food is just determined by the 'fame' of the dish or of the chef. i wish there were more budget food stalls like the hawker centre opposite tj xD
then again, the sakae i had with my mom today was just too mouth watering to pass up if i had the chance to eat it again. thankfully i had $40 in vouchers from my birthday so my mom only topped up 7 to complete that sumptous meal. although i passed up a more budget hooters with the gang, the eel and the crab and the tofu etc and the company of my mom made it more refreshing to spend a public holiday =) well, although i may disagree most times immediately, mom, ur advice does make sense sometimes upon reflection. but then again, somethings i've gotta learn the hard way. didn't you think that way before?
recently, two closet alcoholic friends have suddenly surfaced their desires and become enthu about drinking. i don't need to mention names u know who u are. haha. the shit part is singapore has to have bloody high tax on alcohol. i think a significant amount of my losses this month has gone to alcohol zzz. beer belly wan sui! darn it. more sit ups on mondays i shall do.
anyway today is the LAST day i'm drinking! (this month at least) in future, i shall just be the chaperone =) think i've drunk more these 3 months than the first 18 years of my life! of course, i shall stop completely once i start training for the climbing comps again.
soo here's the lowdown on my national day. it was a pretty satisfying time because of the great company i had amidst the fact that i was engulfed in guilt for previously mentioned reasons.

the only pic i could catch.

look at those cute children playing with the cute little fishies at fullerton x)
i bet no one would expect this of them!

so now i'm psyching up for hardcore studying tmr morning to slack the entire time after to enjoy the farewell party of TJCCC 06/07. just typing that made me revisit many fond memories. good or bad, they had a part in shaping the batch of climbers 06/07 as i know of it today. tears actually welled up in my eyes just from the nostalgia of it all. but thinking into more detail about the experiences, there's actually nothing left for tears, and i'm stupidly smiling at my computer screen now at 2am in the morning =D
long live the memories

don't be sad that it's over, be glad that it happened.
