Chalet June 09

Last weekend was my family chalet. It has become a tradition over the years. All my relatives from my mum's side would spent 3-4 days at Downtown East Chalet in Pasir Ris. I was down for a night from Fri til Sat.

Actually it has gotten a bit boring as we would do the same things over again every year. There is the usual BBQ, cycling, jackpot, tv in room, slack... For someone my age, these ain't appealing things to do over a precious weekend. However, I also realised these are the things which one would miss when we grow older. And they are still meaningful in their own sense... So that's why I was down. Haha.. even thou it was just for 1D1N.

We had BBQ and it was great. I had 2-3 big pc of Chicken Chop, several sticks of satay and prawn, more sticks of vege-mixed-bacons&mushrooms, raw carrot, some rice, some stewed pork and I can't rem already... Was down Kbox with 2 cousins. Havent sung for so long. I think my singing improved. haha... Or rather I am beginning to dare to sing, so it sounded better. Something like that lah...

Wanted to catch a movie, but show and timing didn't fit. Ended up cycling by myself round pasir ris park. I must say pasir ris park is small... didn't realised that before. So much smaller than ECP. Took me 30mins to cycle the entire length. And i wasn't speeding.. Since rental was for 1 hour, so took time to stroll by the beach. haha... more of admiring the 1.5m length beach. It was high tide. Some photos i took.

Can you spot the mud-skipper-like fish?

On with the race

Life is still full of excitement these days.

1) Driving test scheduled on 20th July morning. Not too far from now. Need to step up on my lessons to be even more comfortable on road and in circuits. Heard some stories on trembling legs on the test itself. Hope I need not experience that.

2) I have switched to individual drum lessons. Increased fees for lesser time. Doesn't really make sense does it? But if it yield results, then it's proven to be worth it. Time will tell.

3) Working out often lately. Feeling good. Want to run as often too.

4) Walking as close to God as I can. The excitement that can stem from this close relationship is beyond words.

5) Trying to get back on the smooth track at work. Having been away for 3 wks, I needed some adjustments. Not sure how long before it's time for me to move on, but anticipating and looking forward to new challenges.

6) Looking forward to a possible holiday. But with the H1N1 looming in the air, it can be pretty restrictive. Have no place in mind yet too. But it's still possible =D

Just don't let unnecessary worrying and pessimism overshadow it.
