Friday

It's friday morning and I missed my company bus. Right now I'm on e train.. Making my daily journey from e east to e west. Train isn't crowded today, actually managed to get a seat in Je station. What a rarity.

People are not moving to e carriage centre and it's irritating me. People can't get on the train so why can't they move in? Ok I just saw a pregnant lady but she's kind of far away from me... So unless she comes closer else I will still stick to my seat. Ok... I just gave up my seat to her... Two aunties actually took empty seats in front of e pregnant lady and feel indifferent about it. Gosh...

Ok now I wonder if this entry from my phone will make it my blog in real time.. Will find out tonight.

Pressing on Ahead...

First and foremost, an update to my driving test Take 2 result. I failed. This time circuit was good, no demerit points. However, it was pretty bad on the road. As I intentionally slow down this time round to avoid any costly mistakes, it turned out my slower driving and constant looking around conveyed an unprepared and nervous impression to the tester. These by themselves were alright in fact. It was the road pedestrians that cost me my heaviest penalty this time round. Can't blame them, shouldn't blame them and don't want to blame them. Next test scheduled in Nov. In about 7 weeks time. Not far away. Going to try harder this time.

My level 2 tennis lesson is ending soon, with the last lesson on Monday. I am more and more into tennis. What a sports... loving it more as I grasp more of the right techniques. I am going to restring my current racket. Do not particularly like my current tension. Moreover, it has been the same string since my sister bought for me like 5 years back? How much am I into tennis? I kind of get excited whenever I see a tennis court. haha... It's to that extent. Of course, it must be a nice brightly lit court. I have seen some real poorly maintained courts. The nets comes with holes, the flood light is not working and those working ones are real dim. The court playing areas have cracked with tree roots or something popping out of it. It just puts the player off. Do not even feel the urge to play.

Time for gym session. Due to work and other commitments, i have no time for workout and such. Now time to hit the gym and maybe vent my anger for failing my TP. Haha... But I will be safe.

Driving Test Take 2

Yap, coming up this Friday. How would it go? I will have completed just 3 practice sessions prior to the test. That is a little too few isn't it.

Pray hard!

The Circle line

I took the Circle Line today! Not too bad I must say. Probably because everything is new, so they look pretty impressive. Only 4-5 stations in the circle line are operational as of now with more stations to be commissioned for service by end of June 2010. The remaining are scheduled to open in 2011. Looking forward to those that will be ready by 2011 such as Holland Village, West Coast, Botanical Gdn to name a few. With train gg down, it will make these places so much more accessible.

And the trains used for circle line are actually much shorter than the ones we have now for the other lines (EWL and NEL). They only have 3 cabins ie 2 rubbery connectors when viewed from the outside. I didn't know that!

Picture of the Circle Line Sign
No one saw me taking, else might just wonder what's so special abt the sign.
