hell of a day..

Hahaha..its been a really long time since I been really tired and the fact I've totally enjoy myself and rediscovering myself..


First things first, I'm gona upload my shades,this the one that cost me my $292..hehe..nice right?



Secondly,review of the Ninja Assassin that I watched yesterday. The reasons why you should watch it;

  1. It is so full of action(except the first few parts where it's a lot of talking and confusing parts and you might get lost if you never pay attention.)

  2. Rain(Korean Singer) didn't disappoint in this movie and those bods are truly amazing..

  3. The storyline a bit catchy but all the more its nice to watch.


So I kept my part of the bargain right so here are some of the things that I did for myself today.

Firstly, I went out to the IT show at Singapore Expo Hall 5 just to check the crazy sale that was going on in there. To be truthful if I wasn't strong on my will, I probably be buying almost everything in there and luckily due to budget constrains, I just bought a case to keep all my USB cable and also a wireless mouse. It just cost me $20 altogether.







Secondly, I met up with my old mate name Kinn. After so long and so many obstacles, I managed to meet her up.(hahaha!) I left the Singapore Expo and left with her to East Point Shopping Mall to get her stuff and mine. She bought herself a makeup item(which has like a shiny glittering heart shape or something that she's so happy about. Crazy fellow!) and few stuffs and as for me, I got myself a pair of addidas slippers and a Dunhill perfume.

From there on, it started to become a nightmare for her(poor Kinn!) as I decided to get a few more stuff like shoes,shorts,shirts and cap for myself and she took me to Tampines One or so I guess..the new shopping centre which I'm unfamiliarise with.

I get to buy a SKECHERS shoe at that shopping centre and I got a $10 discount voucher that I gave it to Kinn(see you didn't just follow me for free OK!You get a voucher just by following me..good right?).I gotten my bermudas,cap and shirt at Century Square Shopping Mall.

The finale of these crazy epic was that she treat me to THE COFFEE BEAN for some cold coffee and cakes. The chocolate cakes(were like euuuu!not nice) but the coffee was nice and thanks aite for the treat. (By the way, Kinn,sorry I left abruptly because I was going to J.B with my auntie and her family).







It was definitely a good day for me today as I was totally enjoying,splurging and pampering myself.Till we meet again everyone..tata..

late night out

Hey, I'm gonna make it real short..today nothing much actually only the fact that it's Hari Raya Haji. I spent the day visiting both my grandparents from my mom and dad.

I also manage to buy a new RayBan shades which cost me $292..but it's a money well spent because I really need those shades as my workplace is really really hot. I'm gonna put the picture on my next entry, I promise(really,I will). As to end the day today, I'm gona catch a late night movie title "Ninja Assasin" which star Rain(Korean Singer). I will write a review after I"ve seen the show aite..

Till then tata...

Nearing towards the end.

Its been more than 6 months since an entry has been made here. I am totally sorry in case should anyone been following my journey.

Firstly like always I'm still at the same workplace and a lot has ever since changes. I have a new partner(sort of) who is always sleepy and keeps on coming late to work. I also get to work with an old mate that is Peradi. He is someone you might call a "Seargeant Major". He has that looks which intimidate others and definitely scary to some if you don't know him well enough but in actual fact he is a very nice man and he teaches me a lot of stuff during work which sometimes I am not well versed at and also things which is I am an inexperience at. He's like a father figure to me because outside of work he also gave me a good advice.
Secondly, I have stopped Mechanical Engineering studies and I am going to apply for the Specialist Diploma in Workplace Safety & Health which is somewhat related to the job that I am doing right now. If I ever get to gain an admission in that course, I will definitely find a new job as I will have a better prospect in the near future. I am not being appreciated for the work I have done at all and nobody does seems to care or bother about what I have to say.
Being truthful to anyone reading this blog, I am feeling a little frustrated and down at the moment. I just wish for anyone or anybody to just come save me from this plight. I am definitely feeling empty in my life. I just broke up with my girlfriend of 3 years. I'm not frustrated at the fact of breaking up instead I felt relieved because I've just realised that after this years that I've been with her, I'm just forcing myself to be what she wants and not what I want. Enough of this lovey dovey affair but I'm just happy that I have been freed.
What really got me frustrated is sometimes I wonder what am I working for and what actually do I get for working. I'm just 23 years of age but it seems that I'm being loaded with a lot of responsibilities and it also doesn't help the fact that I'm the eldest of the 4. I really wish that I could be like the rest of the 23years old in the world but too bad I don't have the luxury.
All I ever see in this life is darkness. What I mean is that I go to work in the early hours of the morning when the sun has yet to rise and I go back home when the sunsets and where the night creeps in. I dread going home and I prefer staying out because all I ever get when I return from work is much more stressful and more saddening than my workplace. Everybody loves to go home but for me, I dread it because everytime I step into my house it will be dark and everybody is asleep. I would just shower and listen to my Ipod and doze off to sleep. I wish to be able to talk to my own family or maybe be like other family. But hell no! no one even bother and the food at home is totally disheartening. I sat and ponder why am I even contributing to the household if all I am ever going to get is only food which is only to my mum's or dad's liking.
Joy of earning own money is not what I feel everytime I look at my pay. It's all being controlled and I have to seek permission. I feel numb and just too fed up to think about my pay. I just wish that for just once in my life I can make the decision on my own and also be like any other 23 years old out there. I just a normal kid not a family man and I definitely do not want to hold too much responsibilities that I can hardly accomplished.
*Dear God, if you ever listen to what I have pray,make me strong to face this situation.

eating the humble pie.

This past week, I've been busy going on a course namely to say Scaffold Erector Course. Don't ask me why I go for such course as this is entirely plan by my dearest boss. This is a totally new thing for me and it is so much different from my usual scope of job.
During the entire course of duration, it was really not what I expected as usually where course is concern,it only involve theory and no practical needed. But hell,I was wrong as this require both.
On the first day of the course, all of us sat in a nice air-condition room(haha) as most of us in the course are usual battling with the heat. And what was to be expected during the end of the first day lesson was that I still remember the instructor say: "Tomorrow please bring an extra shirt as you all will be erecting a scaffold as you guys will sweat a lot."
Second day, practical session begin,as usual most are confused and planning had to start. As usual to cut short we made a mess of things.
On the third day,slightly better,we were able to complete two scaffold but still not that perfect. And last day was the examination for the practical and theory. It was the final day and after two days of messing up,we finally got our act together and work as a team and everybody is helping and putting the plan to perfection.
Irony of this is I finally got to know how hard the labour worker felt when they did this job and it also made me realise that no person can work alone. Sure,my body was in a lot of pain and I felt tired but hey everyone who attend this course with me felt the same way too an in some way it is a bittersweet experience. Looking back at the four days of torturous course it sure take a lot of guts and some humbling pie to make all of us realise how people in this field felt. I have no words to describe but I thank my boss for sending me to this course.

The first day @scaffold course(looked so haggard)
At the top of the world....oOoPs at the scaffold,sign of relief as its very high and tiring to climb
Me and Fairos(cutting corners and slacking for a while)
Me and new friend(hehehe)
Its halfway there..almost done..
Veolia..the final masterpiece and we did it...

for quite sometimes...

Its been more than 3months of the new year that I have written on the blog and seriously much have change since the last time I wrote in here.

During month of January 2009, I went to Indonesia,Jakarta and Bandung . It was an exhilirating place down there and it was a breathtaking sight. Different from Singapore where everything is so fast pace and hot whereas there, the weather was slighty cold and DEFINITELY not hot in here. Shopping is just so crazy(for ladies,you definitely will go crazy looking at the price of branded handbag).


Secondly, I got admitted into an Engineering School at Singapore Polytechnic. The course is a part-time diploma and the duration of time I have to spent is 5 years but its definitely because staying here in this country,you must never be satisfiy with what you have.




Lastly, things have been going wrong in my work and I'm intending to find a better horizon because nobody seems to be bother with me and hell,do I even care.

boring day

It's me again and well nothing much really happen last week except for a party that was held in my workplace. Well normal routine,normal job what else seems so montonous now adays.

Well today nothing much to write anyway execpt that today is partly cloudly and the weathers a bit damp. Kinda makes me feel very sleepy, hmm I felt lonely though at this point of time I really need someone to be my side and don't ask me why I feel like this..

Anyway take care just make it short and sharp for today. Take care!

Tuesday, November 4, 2008

hi again ya all..well today is pretty fine I guess, just finish my monthly meeting which is kind of a routine for me and it gets kind of boring actually to be repeating the same thing over and over again.

Firstly nothing much just my usual routine in the office so I decided to get into my writting mode again(yeah yeah I know that I keep on putting my blog aside but hey I got a lot of things on my mind you know) the meeting today was a bore and luckily there isn't any complaint or whatsoever on the vessel that I am taking care. I thank god very much in guiding me and faithfully trust in me though I always took thing for granted but I never forget where my roots are.

Secondly, feeling tired as a result of yesterday. I didn't go home yesterday as I slept at the mess with my two buddy. The mess is actually rent by the company for the workers and like most of the time the mess are always empty because most of the crew only only go to the mess during their off days.

Hmm nothing much for my day today and I promise that if anything interesting happen, I let you all know aite mate. Take care,love always,now & forever from me to you.

so sorry..

Well it's been months of not updating the blog and I am truly sorry for everything as I been having a hectic schedule these past few months.

First and foremost, during the month of September, I went for the Occupational First Aid Course(O.F.A) and luckily I manage to pass and on the same month itself I went up to upgrade myself and go on another course relating to my job as currently I'm just a Safety Supervisor and I intended on becoming a Safety Officer. So the course that I went was Safety Coordinator and I took the exam on the 8th October 2008.

I just got the result and fair enough I manage to pass which was quite a miracle as I really have no confident of passing that course(it was difficult I tell you). The story of success didn't really come easy for me and I blame no one except for me as my parent gave me a good education but I took advantage by not studying properly although I know I can..teehee!!

Hmm,this coming year I am trying to apply for Mechanical Engineering(Part-time) Diploma which would take me 5 years and by then I would be able to take my Safety Officer course. I just wanna share this experience with whom or whoever is out there that is maybe like me in a sense please do not wait for opportunity to come and present itself to you but instead you present yourself to it.

I think that whatever happen is already decided so maybe we ourself should change the outcome of the whole situation. Damn! get all too emotional maybe ya..haha..especially after months of not writing and there I go on about this kind of speech..hehehe..Anyways this coming December going on a short trip to Thailand for my vacation and I will definitely take a lot of picture and post it in here. See you soon.

Hi ya all.. Sorry been rather busy these few weeks as my schedule just keeping on coming intead of going down. Anyway will try to update you all as often and as hardworking as I can ( a bit lazy actually..haha).

Firstly on the 19th July I had organise a drill onboard my vessel that is call man-overboard. In case you're wondering what that mean it is basically where a person who accidentally fall into the sea and how the response is carry out and the response is (in case a real incident really happen on the vessel). Anyway it was a sucess and everyone was happy. I also make it into a video and I uploaded it into youtube. The link are as followed: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bKA1qRQHo8g .

Anyway what really piss me off is that after the event only did I realise that someone was actually making use of me and been using my whole idea and concept behind my back. Who do I mean?? Well it's actually my main con safety department. Ermm what do I mean by that, well on the 25.07.08 was the monthly meeting for all the management and I have to attend that darn meeting every month (sigh!) he publicly announce that he is going to organise the same drill...You probably don't get it right?? Like what's wrong with having the same drill when you already done that right?? Well actually I do mind and here are some of the facts why I do mind:
  • Firstly, during the meeting, with all the top management present no recogniton was being done by our dear MAIN-CON SAFETY for our effort.
  • Secondly the report that I made was never being disseminate in the meeting.
  • Thirdly on how boastful he announce it to the top management when he's doing the drill when the fact is he got the idea from me!! Well two words for that son of a gun: FUCK YOU!
Well been keeping it inside of me for quite sometime now and I feel relieved that I got to let it all out. Hmm, for the rest of last week was busy preparing another thing that is the blood test. The place where I work require that every foreigner or local people to take the mandatory blood test if they are working after 7p.m and it's a bitch anyway to be doing that every month. It's a hassle more than convienient but then again, who cares!!

Sorry been writing with full of hate because I just feel that I've been unappreciated and treated unjustified. Whatever it is I don't mind people learning but I hate it when people takes my idea and present it as their own. I bet you don't like it either right. Anyway yep that's bout it take care..
