The parable of the landlord and the tenants. Man that was a good story. Learnt quite a bit of new stuff in RCIA. Like covenant and testament. Which means the same. Something like a promise for life. Or a vow. Get to know along the ages, who and who had a covenant with the Lord. Interesting sia. Especially the Rosalind lady who was giving the story about that particular Parable.

title:{Matriculation}
Goodness. Matriculation sux big time. Nuff said. But I had a pretty cool experience on my way to school on monday. I was riding the bus 95. Inside the campus area, the bus suddenly braked. This is where it got weird. Things kinda weird slow motion for me. I was busy watching TV. I didn't know the bus suddenly braked. However what I saw was people lurching forward. So somehow my instinct made my left hand shot out and my right leg went forward to compensate and I prevented myself from flying forward( I was seated at the centre at the back row). I was like WOAH!. Cool reflexes.
Had the dean's tea. The only good thing was the buffet. Decent food. I realized the course I chosen is a big headache. I got like so many freaking modules from all over the place. Science. Computer science. Computer engineering. Electrical Engineering. Madness. I'm gonna die. Oh wells. 4 years. I hope stupid army doesn't come and mess with me. And I hope SLO won't eat too much time.

title:{Singapore Night Festival}
Woah Singapore Night festival was DA BOMB. Haha. I previously put night cycling but this one takes the cake. Best event (of the year so far). Hmmm I'm really blogging often because my weekly schedule is super boring. Except yesterday. Friday was a day packed with activities.
Madness. QET was madness. Bio-Technology. Goodness. Of all topics why that. Shit man. OH wells. Everyone there looked like they gonna die. Haha. Met up with some secondary friends. Such a coincidence. So lunch was MacDonalds. AGAIN. I had that for lunch 2 days of the week. Big Mac upsize. I'm gonna die of a heart attack. But hey. I got 2 cups now. Archery and Volleyball. Anyway I witnessed an interesting sight. Someone was eating a McSpicy using a fork and knife, as though she very sophisticated like that. What a hilarious sight
Anyway Night Festival. Wow. I really have no idea how to describe it. You gotta like see it to enjoy it. There was like the aerial display. Big balloons with ladies suspended from them. And the piano in the sky rocked too. Although ya if you were to kinda scrutinize it you'll see its kinda fakey but hey, you gots to enjoy the show man. The fire and water display was awesome too. The lady swimming around in that small little basin of water. And umbrellas of fire haha. And not to forget. FREE NEWATER. Okay that was lame.

title:{Bike Riding}
I CAN'T FEEL MY BUTT. Actually now I can but ya. Woah night cycling was DA BOMB. Bishan Park to lower and upper Pierce Reservoir area. Man its freaking awesome. Of course the prata stops and hong kong cafe stops didn't make it easy for the butt though. Cause once you stop riding and continue after it. Your butt screams for its life. Haha.
Was talking to Jon and he mentioned something about switching courses. Well all the best for him. It seems he's getting to do what he likes best. Me. I'm like doing things for the sake of it. Especially my degree course. Should have went for physio but hey that's not long term enough. Grrr. At least I can roughly plan the future well. I'll live a good life. But maybe gotta sacrifice my passions a bit. Gotta find a way to get things to work. Anyway what I remember most from the conversation was "you gotta take the bad with the good".
I'm always seeking for good good good and sometimes cursing the bad. Rather I always curse at the bad too much to try to open my eyes to see the good. Haiz. Crap man. God has been on my side for quite some time these few weeks. And it seems temptations runs extremely high to steer from the right path. This gonna be a very long long 40 plus weeks. Oh wells. RCIA tmr again. YAY.

title:{Patience}
I need to have more patience with myself. That's what went through my head during my prayer before mass started. Church is the most relaxing and peaceful place in the whole world. I need to go to evening mass more often.

title:{Monday Meetings}
Woohoo. RCIA is so fun. Get to meet people and stuff. The sharing sessions are kinda good, get to open up more to each other, and strengthen the bond. Makes me wanna look forward to every Mondays. Though, I think its gonna be a problem once SLO picks up its pace.
Haven't got the chance to swim. Losing my tan and gaining weight. I can't seem to lose anymore weight. Darn it. Need to lose at least 2 kg to be totally lean. Well maybe 1kg is enough already I'm not too sure. But its sure hard to lose it. Grrr. Need to run more. too. Hope the sky shows lots of bright sun.

title:{Chicken(With Green Pepper) Aglio Olio}
Well that's my latest creation. The Chicken With Green Pepper Aglio Olio. It is quite successful. Just a bit more tweaking and it'll be perfect. My next in line is the salmon. OOOO. Tough dish to do. I ain't good at frying stuff.
Yes, today's lunch with LIV was the STUPID Tian Tian again. Haha. Oh wells, its the company that's important, not the food. Went shopping a bit with Marie, Mark and YL. DKNY's stuff is cool. The apple ones are quite nice. Pricey but good gift ideas. I'll keep that in mind.
Just found out my stupid vocal exams is like on the first day of school. Wow that's really really really screwed up. Terrible timing man. Haiz. I'm still thinking whether I should trouble Mark and just hire a pianist. Oh wells, kinda too late for that.

title:{Steamboat}
Steamboat at that stupid Tian Tian place sux. Man don't ever go there again. Terrible food. Well at least the company was good fun. Only consolation was the corn rib soup was gooooooood.
Yes finally time to get back into shape. Or rather get into shape. Never was in good shape in the first place. Swim swim swim. I hope I don't collapse and die. My plan would probably be swim in the morning, run in the evening. I'll end up sleeping in most of the time. Getting freaking lazy sia.
And woohoo! Backstreet boys HOEDOWN!!. S4 Episode 25. Though it was a more bash BSB hoedown. But still it was funny. Whose Line Is It Anyway is always funny. Good for endorphins rush. And apparently watermelons contain the same chemicals. However the catch is its in the rinds. No one eats the rinds.

title:{RCIA}
Well today was the last day of work and the first day of RCIA. I have lots of mixed feelings about this. I'll miss iDA people. As much as the work is boring and stuff, somehow I'll always miss the places I leave. Afterall, they contain part of my memory. I really cling too much to the past. Need to let go and move on.
I believe today was a good start at Novena Church. Father Simon is definitely a very hilarious person. I got a pretty unique group and I figured out how small the world is. Well this is just the first week. Got many more months to go. I gotta keep my faith strong and believe in myself. For after all, these coincidences are just too coincident to be mere luck.
I'll be seeing him off at the airport. Haiz sad sia. Communication will be very sporadic considering e-mail is the only form of communication he possesses. Not even msn or sms. Man. This thing is really tough. I can't imagine how the cloistered life is gonna be like. I'd probably just die after the first week.
