Birthday/ EPL back/ Biopolis ??/ Marathon/ Seafood @ JB

last Sunday was light, din realli hav as much tuition
as previous wk ... but my pay packet suffered ... but it
was nice to go back home to hav dinner ... haven't
done it for so many weekends

tuition pretty relaxing now ... have completed most
of my students' syllabus

was at Singapore's first film fest @ cineleisure ... it
was a GOOD effort by the korean tourism promotion
board ... tink some of the korean companies have
bought tickets for their staff, the seats were
pretty much filled up

my dream is to organise a Korean film fest one day,
and bring in quality film ... right now, it's still a
dream though ... my small, little effort now is
just to keep my korean movie website ongoing

the ladies looked cool in their traditional korean
costumes, though they r Singaporean

watched 'Marathon' at the film fest - a very
inspiring movie n it's v well-made, u can view
my review at my website ... it brought back
memories of Stockholm Marathon n lotsa other
memories ... so to me the movie means much
more den to others

anyway ... korean movies enthusiast (those
'converted' by me), there are a couple of
movies coming up in the nxt 2 mths, a MUST
watch - 'Sympathy for Lady Vengeance'

Wed was my bdae ... DICK messaged me @
12am sharp wishing me HAPPY bdae ...
Jayce, Stella n cousin Noi wished me soon after
... b4 I slept @ 2am kinda surpised so many pple
knew my bdae ... woke up @ 10 am n I got a
couple of msgs in my inbox ... kinda touched
to receive so many well-wishers ... but so sorrie
guys, no celebration this time around ... haha

din do too much on bdae though ... I was @
the sandy beach w Cousin
weepy ... hav lunchy with Mum w cousin
after tt ...

cldn't celebrate w my JC buddies ... w/o
CK & KW ard ... it realli less fun ... we used
to eat together in a larger group ...
can't wait for u guys to be back !!!

any wish for my bdae ?? my only wish
is to be as humble & cool always

humility is the coolest thing u can find in
a person ... n the 2 coolest persons I
wish to emulate r Arsene Wenger &
Picinini, both ultra-competitive & ultra-confident
people

applied for 3 jobs tt appeared on the
newspapers ... all the 3 companies
were located @ biopolis

the bez ting to get a job by mid Oct,
or even mid November ... guess it
won't be crazy shopping for Christmas
tis time ard, unless I strike lottery

one thing is for sure, I won't get
a job as a cabdriver !!! without a license,
it's not quite possible

job-searching hasn't been easy ... but it's
like that ... it's worth the struggle and 10
years later when one looks back ... the
struggle is realli nothing

it will b like, chey!!!

over the weekend, I have some really gud
food, too much of a good thing can really
spoil you ... was @ malaysia with sec
sch frenzs Edison + pals ... Edison organised
it to celebrate me & Ren Hao's bdae

The food was delicious, though not quite
sizzling hot - crayfish, prawn, stingray, ribs and
other stuff ... we wanted to have ramli burger
after tt ... but was too full ... Gluttony and
sinful ...

we shopped ard n ended the nite at one of
the coffeeshop near my plc ... talked abt my
frenzs' galfrenzs, our other classmates, our
former crush ...

Aivee moved over to Yishun on sunday, wanted
to help her but by the time I reached flat, I only
ended up chatting with her and telling her the
neighbourhood ... she rented a splendid flat
and a SUPER bargain price

uncle brought me to BOTTLETREE restaurant
@ sembawang for lunch, it's juz beside the sea,
the site of the former Sembawang sea sports club
... the recommended dish is the Mongolian prawn
ball ... luv the plc though we did nt stay for lunch
cuz I got tuition after tt

my tuition kid, Jonathan wanted me to teach
him Geography & History, I din quite agree to it,
I only knew that the only way to learn Geography
is to memorise & memorise ... anyway in most
of my employers' eyes, I can do no wrong ... but I'm
never perfect, never is, never was and never will be
