Must blog

Just a quick update for myself....

What did I do over the past week... ? Very happening week in fact...

To sum it up...
1) Bruised..
2) Scared
3) Lazy
4) Rushed
5) Poor

It seems bad doesnt it? It actually is just the opposite...

Friday:
A small group friend's other small group has an outreach program. And that Friday, it was to go to the ice ring in Memorial City Mall for... BROOM HOCKEY...

What is that? I have no clue... till I went... it's basically like hockey... but on ice... and man.. it was really slippery... many of us were falling all over the place. i had a bad bruise on my left knee and hurt my back a little too. The rule of the game is simple... just try to score lah!

It was a rather one sided game.... the team that I was on kept defending... but somehow managed to take the lead... only towards the end of the game, did the opposing team, which tim the dodo is in, miraculously found a way through our water-tight defence. A controversial goal, as we did not utilise the much talked about goal line technology, just like football. 2-2 it ended.

Anyway, it was a great game... i had my fair share of running... and work out... filled with lotsa fun... I only wish there will be more coming..

Saturday:

Whole of afternoon was filled with apartment hunting... and it was not futile... we found this amazingly looking place, with TWO lakes and THREE Swimming Pools!!! It's a Humongous place... with a wonderful environment... Furthermore, the room layout was perfect for us too! Despite it being $100++ more per month than it's poorer cousin next door... we were sure we will be residents of this place, come Jan 2007.

Saturday night came... we met up with some co-workers... organised by one cool guy, by the name of Peter... He is always organising things, and asking us along... seriously lucky to have gotten to know him here... He organised a trip to a Haunted House (in singapore... it's called Gui Wu- literally Ghost House) since it's going to be Halloween soon (Oct 31). I never know when is Halloween, so it's really fun to be involved in "celebrating".

The place is call Scream World. We had to travel abit to get there.. When we got there, it was filled with people. The setting is elaborate... The props and stuff were all fantastically done. I was caught off guard and had a scare twice or thrice through our walk.... While it was not scary.... the entertainment value was there.

Just for visual effect... I copied a picture of the website below:

Sunday:

Slow day... went to church... attended baptism class, came home... sleep and study for CPA.

Monday:

Went to take a 2nd look at the apartment... Convinced that it IS the right one. Went to office for some stupid meeting... which latest 10 mins... then spent the rest of the day dozing off at my desk

Tuesday:

Slept till there's no tomorrow... then someone woke me up... we went to sign the application ($300! No turning back).

When I was waiting for the agent to be back from lunch, I had mine at a table beside the lake... Every min there just makes me like the place more.. it is THE place for me..

Wednesday:

Went to fix my tooth which has chipped off... cost US$150 to build a crown i think... That is after my insurance probably paid about 4-500 dollars... expensive..

Eventful week... The best thing is... not assigned on job, though have to clear some stuff... but the pace is way slow and so relax...

Thank GOD!
