went for two 21st birthday celebrations last weekend. really good to see my army bunk mates again. havent seen them for quite some time. glad to see that all is doing fine. will be attending more 21st birthday celebrations. can catch up with old friends whom you havent met for a long time. yeah. but it also means that i have to buy more birthday presents! hahahahaha.

last week, the weather was terrible. kept raining in the afternoon. for most of the time, i couldnt do anything much and ended up sleeping at home. got to swim once or twice only. went for a short 5.6km run yesterday night with bernard. supper @ D'rubinah Restaurant. prata + teh tarik. shiok! went to yishun student service centre this afternoon to teach the kids. watched them play captain's ball but they lost as the kids in other 2 teams have a height advantage over mine. some of them were a little demoralised. sometimes, it seems like making improvement is just not enough, probably winning a game would have make them feel better. this is something which i have been thinking about. howwww? hopefully i can think of a solution soon.

some time ago, someone by the name of samantha called in to 91.3fm and commented that the 'heartlanders' are uncultured and low class or whatsoever. these 'heartlanders' refer to those staying in areas like angmokio, yishun... you can check out this story via STOMP to know more about it. the noose last week responded to this and i think the noose crew did a good job. click here to watch the video. love the part when Barbarella asked samantha to read between the lines and played around with the word 'VILLAGE'. hahaha. awesome.

that's all for tonight. swimming tmr morning. starting my relief teaching next week. feeling excited, but a little worried too. a good learning experience though. yeah.
