"the reason we can't say those three words to each other is not because it isn't true." then why "I think we both know, that the moment we do, it won't be the start of something, it'll be the end. think about it"
........
we don't have to do those things. We can do what we like. "what we like is this." the game "without it i'm not sure how long we'd last. It'll be just a matter of time before we messed it all up."
Why is it I get mad at people who like the same things I do. To be specific, if they start to like it way after I do (sometimes this even extends to years)
Perhaps. It's because people make a big deal out of it. Some make it into a trend.
Like. When I picked up guitar just before Secondary One. No one was playing at the time. Or at least, no one made noise about it. Then a few people knew I play, and wanted to learn to. So yeah, I showed what I knew, even though I wasn't very good then. (And because I was lazy, I still ain't that good now) And eventually, everyone started buying guitars, bringing it to school, etc etc. Then, boom, everyone has a new band they're raving about.
The best part is, people requested for me to be part of their band. As their BASSIST.
Thanks ah. I picked up guitar so that I could play bass. (No disrespect to bass players out there. I just don't like to play it)
But anyway, I got sick of the whole thing. That's when, the adventure side appeared. 2003. First summit at Ophir. And so, I abandoned my artsy side. And yeah. I think people tried to follow. The camp at Taman Negara was probably proof of that. Alot of people tried to be heroes in the forests. Things like that. Which reminds me, a few people were selected to go for the OBS course. And they were all people who were on extremely good terms with a certain teacher who was the one doing the selection. That got me mad as hell, as you would expect. =)
Anyhoo. That trend never materialized I guess. My school. Most were probably caught up in entertainment, dressing up, music, etc etc. Few outdoor enthusiasts. Which is good news for me.
Because the conclusion for all this is, I hate it when things I love to do are made into trends. However, I definitely won't stop sharing my love for the outdoors. Hey. I'm using the ST3PS model well okay.
Is it okay for me to not like it when people doubt/debate/or reject my judgement? OF COURSE IT IS
Impulsive? I don't know. What do you think of this. I have the complete discography of Queens of the Stone Age, and oddly enough, the Greatest Hits for Queen. 53 songs for the former, 33 for the latter. Nothing wrong right? Oh, that now brings my playlist to 2269. Still missing alot of my CDs. They're lying about somewhere.
Sometimes sucking up is a sad necessity
Apparently, according to certain people i'm working with, I have 'Leader' stamped on my forehead. =.=" I did'nt take it as a compliment. =.= =.= =.=
Grey's is getting abit weird, but exciting nonetheless. Gossip Girl is just full of memorable lines. Woot. =)
And lastly, today marks only the 3rd or 4th training i've ever missed in OB. How fun. I spent the last three hours of my shift wondering what I was missing out on, and whether I'd be in the dark about new developments and things like that.
My Template was causing problems and I can't be bothered to fix it. So it shall stay this way for now.
Is there really anyone else out there who can choose to be on my side? You know, without the "you're either with me or against me" nonsense?
I don't like that my life is so well-balanced. Well-balanced, how? Right now, I am really happy with one thing. But why can't everything else be happy as well, or neutral. There ALWAYS has to be at least one other thing that infuriates me. Hmm
I have been slacking in my running. Long-distance to be specific. No worries on short.
Oh. Despite my concerns about my PRCP ward, I realize everything will go well. The nurses are impossibly patient, and they were different than I last recalled. (I was in the same ward 2 years ago for CA1.1) And somehow or rather, I'm like the unspoken leader (?) It's only the second day, but already I'm the one talking to Sister, and Peter on everyone's behalf. Okay. Sure. Can.
On a related note, I couldn't wish for a better sister. She let me take 4 days off so I can attend the outreach camp. Excellent. And the fact that I have to make up on Saturday and Sunday is irrelevant. I'm actually looking forward to being alone in the ward then. CHECK MY ROSTER OUT!! AHAH. Look for the stretch of morning shifts.
On the downside. I totally didnt recall to change my shift on my birthday. Oh well. I don't really care anyway.
Epiphone by the end of the year?
Heading in the MacBook Pro direction soon, within the next 2 or 3 years hopefully. =D
Imagine. A patient. 18 years old, male. Deteriorating rapidly. Let's assume he isn't a DIL/DNR case eh?
Okay. Deteriorating. Gonna go soon until something is done. So. Emergency procedures done by the medical staff (nurses included!!)
Patient goes to ICU. Still fairly critical.
So. Which should it be? The staff goes full out to help them back? Or the patient has to do it by himself? Does it ALWAYS have to be abit of both? Does it ALWAYS have to be both sides either compromsing or reaching a mutual agreement?
Figure out this post people, if you can. Let's just say, I'm the staff here eh?

IF ONLY you don't always beg to differ. You'd make a way better team player, not to mention an even greater friend =)
---------------
I think it's settled. Everyone knows what I want, right? My desire to go to all those places?
So, once the time comes. I'm off. To work in the Middle East. I've already been sort of promised a job there. But fret not (for those who care about my existence here), I won't be there forever.

I know what I want.
In the following order, hopefully.
To go to Gunung Tahan after PRCP.
Summit Mount Ophir at least once before I enlist in NS.
Climb whatever I can get during NS.
2 or 3 different summits in M'Sia in a year after NS.
MATTERHORN. Before 2013.
After that. I wanna go
Ice Climbing in France (Chamonix perhaps?)
Mauna Kea (volcano)
Mt Logan (Tallest in Canada)
Puncak Jaya (New Guinea {Indonesia})
Mont Blanc
Haha. Sound too much? And nah. I'm not trying to rack up my mountain climbs for the sake of doing so. Climbing means more to me than that. From the dreadfully neverending traverses, or to the thrill of emergency almost-running-down descents. Woot.

Hello. I'm back. And I'm in a euphoric state. How wrong. I'm supposed to be drained.
Nothing much to say. I would however, like to congratulate the LEP subcomm consisting of Eugene, Hui Hong, Quan Bin, Weilin, Kiankok, Janine, Mei Hong, Kelvin & Sebastian, for a successfully run camp. You guys got my feedback already (a real debrief feedback, not on the form. haha), so no need to say anything.
And of course, I'm rather grateful for the super long chat sessions I've had over the past few days. Roughly seven hours with Derrick and Wes on Monday. A couple of hours that same night with Jia Jun and Eugene. And of course, with Dong Yang during the trek to MacRitchie and when I went to get my dinner on Day 3. Woot. Thanks.
Goodnight. Enjoy the following photos. My so-called favourites la.
The first two, are examples of why it is okay to use flash in broad daylight. For those who DARED questioned me. I shall crush you. Muahahahah.
Okay lame. =.="
1. Shujuan @ Bishan Park 2. Derrick @ Macritchie (photo by Wesley [after much teaching] 3. Dead Crab 4. Jia Jun, both @ Sentosa
I also started dabbling in BnW. And I'm hooked. My photo is by Jia Jun. Everything else is by me.
However. I'm still not satisfied. I can only do so much with my Kit Lens =(
Here. Last of all.

And oh. I chose to work 14 hours. Anyone who thinks it's dumb, you're dumb yourself
(psst, the dumb sentence thing is called self-insurance)
