Some random things for sleeping...

Something caught my eyes on TV earlier on after cooking up a meal and having some time off after dinner, we were surfing channels while a program came up and it was a show abt lesbian..

There was nude sence of sexual thing going on. Its juz talking about life of some lesbians in US and how tings turn out for them.. There after as we were turning to another channel, they were showing brokeback mountain! Damn.. Is it a sign for the kiwis to turn the other direction or someting?

Juz some food for thought before i head to bed.. Its currently 0030 in the morning and Singapore is 1930..

another wk have passed

Yet another wk have passed...

Have completed 2 papers soo far with average scores... Was never really good with written exams but at least its an 'A' grade! More to come in the following wk and shld be going up soon to do some flying. Kina missed the feeling of having control over the aircraft and njoying the view high up there. Too bad, i dun think i will be given any aerobatics rating for my studies here.. Too bad!

Have been settling in pretty well with my classmates and aviation mates.. Hav not seen the rest of the schoolmates as school term only starts on 28th Feb or so then there will be an orientation for all courses. Wonder if there are any hot asian gals or kiwis illege enough for a date.. haha...

Had a drink at "HighFlyers", one of the 'club' on main street on friday night with some of my mates and it was pretty good! Alit like zouk area concept but smaller and there was live band area in the courtyard and a chillout pool area where most of the older dudes will go there to bet on horse races or ani kind of bets. But the music was not to bad in the main room and girls to guys ratio was 3 girls to 1 guy.. around there lahz..

All these kina make me missed home! Clubbin down at zouk with friends or juz chilling out at cheezecake cafe with the brothers on sunday evening kina sounds good now. Well, I guess i will only know when i get home end of the year than..

Sorrie for texts as i have not really taken ani photos. Busi with my books and studies so kina left my camera in my bag. Well, will post more stuff next wk.. sorrie for the boring updates of things here. Life is kina slow down here with really nuthing much to do but to study..

Cheers mates..

First Wk of School

The first of school was pretty burn for me! Lecture from 0800 in the morning till 1700(5pm) in the evening. With 1 hour break for lunch at 1200 and the occassion tea break and toilet break in between. But the amount of notes given to us was like heaps to read and digest! Classmates were really from all over the world. And can you guys believe it, the 3 Singaporeans in the class are the oldest of them all and i`m the 2nd oldest! Damn..


Coming wk, there ar already 3 test paper coming in and follow wk is an exam for one of the modules.. The work is really never ending coming to flight school.


I really thank God for the experience i have from Airforce, at least most of the subject taught was like a revision for me. Except Air law which is heaps of reading to do and understand. From the expect of a passenger to the Director in CAA..


Been "cooking" quite alit here to cut cost and as a form of relaxation for me. There ar quite a number of supermarkets and butcher shops in town and off. Prices can sometime be alit higher than singapore, but when a man got to eat, he got to eat!


Got my car already for frens who wanna know! Its a pretty nice ride but kina need some work done up on it so i shall not post any photos of it till its done. But like i have said, Cars here are really cheap and not very well taken car of except for those "flash" cars that need see and be seen kina thing.


Shall keep you guys posted on things here as much as i can! Will post some photos next time round. See how things good.. Meanwhile, cheers mates to all of you back home and the season of spending time with that special someone is coming! Go out there and knock yourselves out with the spirit of flowers and chocolates. Take Care..

First wkend in Palmy..

Its my first wkend in Palmy! Things been going gr8 with the exceptions of a few hip-cups here and there..





Arrived on Wed late afternoon at Palmerston North airport.





My flight from Singapore was delayed from 2100 take-off till 2315 take-off. Was practically walkin around the new T3 and appreciating the new structure. The departure hall inside is really classy and spacious for passengers to walk around. Alit like walking around Vivo, juz that Vivo is alot bigger and covered with more shops. The flight over was packed as usual with all sorts of passengers and air stewardess were all average looking.





Weather in Palmy is generally cool with lotsa wind and close to clear skys. At one point, I was almost blown away at the carpark in the airport, while collecting the car. First day was to get some things sorted away. First on the list was to find a place to crash at least for the night.. Was searching for almost 3 hours before finding the one i'm in now at Palmy 31. The place is not to bad. Rather small but comfy for juz the stay.. Thereafter, was in search of the car that wld last me for at least this year. Althou' cars in New Zealand ar alot cheaper than cars back home, its still kina hard to find one within my budget. I`m a student now soo must act like one!

This was one of the car at a aution centre that i frequent for the pass few days. They have different kind of aution on different days and prices can be really interesting at times. Brand new AudiTT in NZ will cost around $80,000 to $110,000

The car that i might be getting.. Not sure yet but it seems to be in the best condition but gona pay alit more for that.. and maybe meeting the owner later on in the day!

The car that i wld love to buy but its kina over my budget. Its a Honda Integra Type R! Going for $9,000. Nuthing wrong with it, its runs really smooth and no rust or faded paints. Maybe juz change the seats and its ready for race.

Life is rather lay back around here.. Guys here are engineer in someway or another as paying for repair service or services is kina expensive.They also love to suit up their cars at one point or another and race down the road on certain nights. Even a suit up car here is cheaper than those in Singapore.. hai...

Had my orientation on friday and met my coursemates! Its like going to an international school. There are guys from UK, Aus, Korea, Taiwan, india, Kiwis and i think there is one from Malaysia(have yet to meet up). There are 2 young girls in my course but they are like 17 or 18.. Really young in the course.. I almost fell asleep at the briefing from one of the adminstrative stuff..

Coming to more recent stuff.. Had a gather with some of my coursemates and they are really cool people! Watch Lee Evan at one of the guys hall and had beer and chat for a while before heading down for a (Singapore) senior farewell gathering. Farewell party was actually a "sabo" session on the leaving party. Was the first time we met the senior and we ar looking at his ass at one point of time, out in the cold by the river with deep heat, lipstick, flour, some oilment and a whole lot of rubbish rubbed on him. And of course he was tied up on the hands and legs, like how Jack wld do it on Audie.. Hahaha! Btw, the senior is a commando! haha...

Aniway, its like coming 1045am over here where singapore is 0545am. Gona leave to take a drive down to huntervillie which is an hour away to see the FTO.. Wish me luck on the deal..

Bros and sis and close frens.. Will try to update my blog as much as i can soo keep in touch. Msn me, mail or msg me (singapore line, cheaper for you) anitime.. Might not reply immediately but i will sooner or later. Aniway, my NZ num is 0210746467, country code is +64. Keep me posted of Singapore events yeahz! Cheers mates...

The year is comin to an end and a new beginning starts today

Finally, D-day of departure..

Well, alot of things have come and go. Many military personnel die in 2007 like an epic.. Close frens have gone home to the Lord and people around us have moved on with their life. But Its 2008 now and i believe it shall be a good year for all of us..

In juz a few hours, i will be leaving on a jet plane to a new beginning! New environment, New course, New friends and whatever its gona hit me! This gona be 3 years of studies in New Zealand. Thinking abt how it was when i was backed from training last year from Perth. I din take long to decide that i shld go for my studies and settle the necessary stuff. Flown over in Nov to settle the interviews, multiple test and medical checks in Singapore! That was a whole load of things to clear in juz less then 3 months.. "The Fight is On!"

Below ar juz some photos from Dec and early Jan events that happened around me. Will promise to update more consistently when i'm over in Palmy. Keep in town with me on facebook, skype or even msn. With current technology, there are juz too many ways to make the world smaller..

"Si Gong" and one of the kid and mother from Spastic Children.

My younger cousin who can't stop calling me "jiu", which means uncle in chinese..
Dad giving out Angbao to the unfortunate people from Spastic Children. Well, this event was organised by my parents for my brother's school.. He is handicap since he was born and have been attending spastic children since young. My parents held a lunch appointment with the kids and family members to celebrate the coming Chinese new year. These kids come from really poor family. Their monthly household may be on S$600 for a family of 3 or 4.. Which can be really sad.

This is not photoshop photo but i did really get a go in a Porsche Boxster. Its a deal my mom got where i can drive the Boxster for a day juz for fun. Althou' its not the Boxster S or ani other better, faster model, its good enough for me and its fantastic to drive in.. New year was spend watching fireworks at a fren's work place.. Its in shenton way facing the bay! It was great as we were really close to the action in an air-con office without being in the crowded.. Its a good way to spend the early new year with frens and fave.. Besides going over to Palmy for my interview i also went up to Tokyo for some visiting and travelling with my parents. Weather was good! Girls were really pretty and in cold weather, they can still wear mini skirts, loose top and high boots. Wonderful view every time i step into the town area. hehe... And the food is definitely the best with fresh fish str8 from the sea.. We visited Uncle Ito and his wife. Uncle Ito is my mom's ex-boss from her shipyard dads. Uncle Ito is really talented as after he retire, he joined a concert band and starts his travelling around to perform for 100s and 1000s..

and this is the beautiful Kyoko who is Uncle Ito's eldest daughter. She is a really high flyer with monthly salary not less then US $30K.. Ani guys wanna date her? Pls be able to match up to her salary and speak fluent Jap and English. Mt. Fuji is really nice, althou there wasn't ani visible show fall but its still really cold and windy..
These photo was taken at an event that i was helping out at shenton way. we were at the 37th story and the view is juz breath taking.
This is shai, the fren that i was helping with and thats the ladie that we we doing the event for.. looks not to bad eh. The 2 looks like a couple!
This is the event company's boss son birthday thingy that we did.. His name is Xea! Nice name..

Well, IT 1710 now and my flight off is 2100.. Its time to say my last goodbye to Singapore and the wonderful memories i have. Good ones, Bad ones. It doesn`t really matter, what most important is that we can learn something from it and make the rest of our lifes better.. Life is short! If we have to make enemys everyday or regret that decision we made yesterday then we will surely die young.

Keep in touch my frens and whoever is reading this entry! I will be back...
