9 more days

by jon laa on April 29th, 2011

And I still haven’t started packing. Dear goodness.

If you want pure olive soaps, drop me a note. I managed to find some one to make them for me.

I miss you

Mm, difficult to understand why I’ve so much trust in vincent. Maybe because we have our real brutal/ugly moments and real selfish ones as well. I don’t know how to draw equilibrium. I know he’s a keeper.

On the other hand, the communist boar and british sow are disappointing.

Back from road trip :)

The counting down begins, 13 more days.

Back from jb yesterday, rested for the entire of today. Freaking exhausted from the long train rides and delays. Urgh. The weather wasn’t being particularly kind too.

It’s such a pity I didn’t travel via rail to malaysia earlier. Probably could have gone to different places in malaysia and explored the country a bit with just single-day trips. Damn it!

The rotator cuffs are hurting again. I think parallel dips really kill.

Okay, packing begins tomorrow :)

Pleasant bad friends

They’re those who wouldn’t come to your help in adversities. I’m almost hating them. You ask them for help and they generate ten other solutions without giving an answer if they would/could help.

The implication I’m getting from that is they think I’m not thinking enough?

Needless to say none of the ten other solutions are feasible.

Now who’s not thinking?

Then they give you some excuse/reason on why they can’t help.

I wasted my time having to present to them my findings at why the ten solutions will not work, I really did.

Pao da jie

Finally meeting pao. I think we’ve been saying we should meet up since 2002 or so. It’s almost 10 years.

Been very complicated la. I think all the arrangement, especially financial ones, have been making me feel very awkward. But let’s just say I should enjoy whatever is allocated to me.

Now getting into school is most important to me.

Platonic love

complicated stuff.

Back to training

by jon laa on April 14th, 2011

Been training with the ez bell at 20kg. Pretty lousy at it actually. Then working on my triceps at 15kg, cuffs are not always agreeable. Doing pull ups too, at max 5 rep. I’m trying to push it to 10. Don’t think I can do it anytime soon.

Ties that bind

I think I need to apologise to david. The unhappiness I experienced didn’t justify how I treated him.

And I guess buying some one a meal is going to take a toll on my miserable pocket.

But this is what brian told me years ago when I asked why did he insist to pay when he was obviously in greater financial despairs, “better to give than to receive.”

The little joys of life.

Good people, bad

by jon laa on April 11th, 2011

Good people are like aaron who helps me sew my bag.

Bad people are like, I can’t think of any I’d like to list.

Birks are on their way, money has left my way.

Finding people

by jon laa on April 8th, 2011

Been meeting each other a lot. It kinda translates to our lack of alternate social lives. Boo hoo?

30 more days. There’s dim sum, zoo trip, jb trip, alika trip to go. I think that will kinda sum up everything.

Mmm, and so what happens after?
