Affairs of the Heart...

Hello...

How are you?

Nice to see you again...

Oh....

Er...ok...

Yup...

So...please stop avoiding me ok?

Uh huh...

Ya...let's remain friends...shall we?

I understand....and thank you...

Ok...

Un...cya...

stupid weixian

freaking noob. ah lim out of action, MIA, knn.. leave me to maintain this gg blog. nice..

im not supposed to be in mood to do anything...

or to have any motivation.

coz my beloved man u gg-ded at freaking arsenal. thats the worst shit that can ever happen. this season, i already kena mocked by fans from chelsea liverpool and arsenal liao :(

BUT

i learnt

winning isnt everything. in life, there is no such thing as sure win. sometimes u win sometimes u lose. what matters is no matter what do not feel defeated and u must persevere and get back on ur feet and confront all ur challenges. cmon man utd!

exams coming. yea winning isnt everything, but can i afford to lose?? hmm...........................

anyways, for all people out there having exams, all the best!

Why doesn't constant trampling defeat the dandelion? The key to its strength is its long and sturdy root, which extends deep into the earth. The same principle applies to people. The true victors in life are those whose who, enduring repeated challenges and setbacks, have sent the roots of their being to such a depth that nothing can shake them. --daisaku ikeda

glory man utd!!

ojj signing off.

just a mth of shit left, wads this compared to 2 years of army? roarrr

quotes

These describe me quite well:

- Everytime i close the door on reality,

it comes in through the windows.

- I try to take one day at a time,

but sometimes several days attack me at once.

- Whenever i feel like exercise,

i lie down until the feeling passes ....

- I can resist everything.....

except temptation

Some food for thought:

- The early bird catches the worm

but the second mouse gets the cheese

- A conscience is what hurts when your all other parts feel so good

- But the beauty is in the walking

--we are betrayed by destinations

Things are so bad, im turning to a magic ball for help.

Tried asking it a few qns before but it always give opposite answers.

yesterday i asked if i was yandao, it said go for it

i asked if i was very yandao, it said be honest and ask again

i was honest and i asked again, if i was damn yandao, it just said NO.

devastated, i asked for my gpa if it will be 4.0, from 4.0 i asked till 5.0, the answers ranged from a flat no, to better not tell you now, even to ask my mom. i gave up and asked if i will get 3.5 it said yes immediately. :(

hmm... no doubt it was saddening, but im gonna take heart from the previous times when it seemed to be inaccurate. but i hope the previous qns (secret) will be correct though hehehe.

I HATE THE MAGIC BALL.

kindly unspoken--silence speaks louder than words--

Fun outing!

Yeah yeah YeAh!!!!

Fun outing on the 2nd of September! The flight that eventually took off!!

The "fat thorn" among the "roses." Photo snapped by Weiming.

lol

behind the scenes- compressed so quality not veh good. lol

The flight that almost didn't take off...

No pics in this post this time. Sigh...

Anywayz, planned a simple JB trip for A3's Weiming, Liling and Swan Lin.

On the night of 1st sept, they went over to my JB home to stay the night. Next morning, we had a scheduled flight to nowhere at 11am. The flight, which was the highlight of the trip, almost didn't take place, here's why.

As we were arriving at Senai Airport, it almost seemed like the dark clouds were trailing us from Mt Austin. 

"Wah! Looks like we can't fly!" I said while driving.

"No lah! Cannot like that, must have the right ichinen!" said Liling form the back seat.

Once we arrived at the club house, we collected out aviation headsets and headed straight to our green Piper Warrior II. 

Amazed at the sight of a light aircraft, Liling started taking pictures with Weiming and Swan Lin, while i conducted an external check of the plane. Everything seemed perfect, er...except the clouds.

"Ok, let's hope on in," i said while teaching them how to board the airplane.

"Welcome aboard Ah Lim airlines!" I added.

Once all were on board, bam, the rain just started pouring, and all we could do was huddle in the aircraft and snap more photographs. 

As the rain fizzled out, we quickly rushed to the nearby hanger to take shelter while again, out of the blue, the rain started to hit hard!

More picture taking at the hanger...Oei! Liling! Faster upload the photos to Facebook or something leh!

Hungry people are angry people. This time, the rain gradually subsided. Seizing the opportunity, we once again made a move, a move to the nearby canteen for some makan.

Having filled up our stomachs, while the sky was still clear, rushing back to the aircraft became our top priority, and this time however, the weather permitted us to take off!

"Johor ground, good afternoon, this is niner mike tango alpha tango," i said over the radio while trying to establish contact with air traffic control.

"Good afternoon niner alpha tango, go ahead," came the reply.

"Niner alpha tango would like to request for start-up to operate south of Gunung Pulai at 1500ft, i have 4 POB and 2 hours of endurance," i requested.

"Start approved, QNH one zero zero niner."

Yes! We could fly to the south of Mouth Pulai! The view there, in my own opinion, is awesome!

I think a picture speaks a thousand words, and so...hehe...i shall wait till i get the chance to obtain the pictures from Liling and post them here!

LOUT

Censored!

Haha, still got some parts censored in "Singapore Dreaming" on national TV.

see-eff-gee

jiayou in ur respective cfgs pp. bye!

310808, Arts Central, 10pm. Singapore Dreaming...

Hello dear readers! Remember to catch "Singapore Dreaming" on Arts Central tomorrow, 31st August, at 10pm!!

I'm in it, and i'm really excited to be on national TV, albeit for only a few seconds! Wait, hang on, was i also captured on TV during our NDP performance??? Hmmm...

Anywayz, I was supposed to act as a nerd who "proposes" to the lead actress's character, but ended up getting rejected. Did quite abit of filming for my character. In the end however, the director decided to edit the script. 

I ended up becoming a calefare instead, haha...

It was an awesome experience though. Learnt a fair bit! Thanks again Colin for giving me this wonderful experience!

I appeared in 2 scenes for a few seconds each, both were office scenes.

This one...

and this one...

The movie, as a whole, is also very meaningful, very Singaporean. I strongly urge all of you to watch it tomorrow!

That was my 3rd involvement in a major local film. The first was "Talkingcock the Movie," and the second was "15 the Movie."

Was also involved in various other short film projects made by Ngee Poly FSV students, and Spanish exchange students from the University of Catalonia.

I still cherish this dream of becoming a film maker someday though. This has got to take a backseat for the time being as other more important priorities come first.

"I'm spinning around," so says the lyrics of a Kylie Minogue song.

Right now, i kind feel like this...

Getting spun around..

But hey, no matter how much life "spins" you around, always flash a big smile and move on. Cherish all your friends, especially your zenchishikis, and smile together with them! For sometimes when you are "spinning," they will "spin" together with you, and when you're "spinning outta control," they will stop you from "spinning into wasteland!" I'm truly blessed to have such awesome friends within and without SGI!

So come on everybody, smile together!

The CFG is a platform to forge new friendships and strengthen existing ones. 

To quote our mentor in life, Ikeda Sensei, "In Japan, the mountain potatoes known as taros are rough and dirty when harvested, but when they are placed in a basin of running water together and rolled against each other, the skin peels away, leaving the potatoes shining clean and ready for cooking. Similarly, the only way for us to hone and polish our character is through our interactions with others."

Helped out in Toa Payoh Central's CFG earlier at the behest of my buddy. They had the honour of firing the first salvo, and they did a mighty good job! Am totally bowled over by their efforts, spirit and sincerity!

All the best to all upcoming CFGs! Should you need any help, please do not hesitate to contact me. I'd be most willing to offer a helping hand if I'm not held up!

Oh ya, i'll also be the SSA Times reporter attached to Woodlands, Toh Guan and Pasir Panjang chapters. Anyone of you from these chapters? Do let me know!

Till then, L-OUT...

Gonna fly you to the moon and back...

Ah...got the inspiration for this entry's title from that Savage Garden hit single. Was crazy about Savage Garden during my secondary school days! But I, of course, never neglected MJ!

There's a sentence in the lyrics that reads, "...she packs her bags for outer space and now she's waiting for the right kinda pilot to come..." 

Well, can i be YOUR pilot? Hehe...

Anyway, managed to salvage 2 videos that i thought were forever lost to my crashed hard disk! 

 

More like 'flying to the sun' actually. And yes, again, i was much slimmer then :-(

The direction of my take-off was south bound. If i had continued flying straight, i'd have ended up in Singapore. JFYI...

And for the record, Billie Jean is not my lover. I never really had a lover in the first place!

Aaow!

The King is back.

Happy birthday Michael Jackson! I Love You!

L-out.

Huat Ah!

Before i knew it, It was all a dream! I'm no Martian, nor did i settle down on the moon! I'm just L.

But it was an awesome dream nonetheless.

Back to reality...

Hokkien dialect is awesome! Very expressive. I like!

Hope it doesn't rain at 11am on the 2nd of september. Please help pray for me that it doesn't!

how to wake up on the right side of the bed.

but hor, wad shd u do if someone....... to be continued. hahahhaa

Waking up on the wrong side of bed...

It was a lonely night. The weather was cold, and my room was stuffy. 

Why am i still thinking about this person? What shall i do tomorrow?  Thoughts like that were zooming in and out of my mind like bullet trains plowing through the east-west line.

Lying on my tatami mat, i slowly fell asleep, not knowing that i have been sucked into the twilight zone.

The next day, well 3 days later actually, when i awoke, i couldn't recognise the area around me. 

"Where am i?" i thought. 

Yup, it was an alien place alright. I woke up to an Earthrise on the surface of the moon!

"Woah! It was like taking the Shinkansen to the surface of the moon!" I exclaimed.

 

Well naturally, since i was already on the moon, i bought a property and settled down there.

It was just a normal 1 room moonshack with the most basic of amenities. It even comes complete with books on bookshelves that face the toilet, plus a complimentary moon clock. Great value for money!

As i was going to freshen myself up, my face felt weird. I didn't feel like myself. Even my mojo felt funny!

"Whatever man, just go brush your teeth," i said to myself.

When i looked into the mirror, holy crapamony! I've turned into a Martian! This is crazy!

Arghhh!!!

memories..

My hard disk crashed a few months back. Photos taken over the years have all been deleted!

Lucky thing there are some photos of mine scattered all over the place. 

Here are some of the really precious ones!

The one and only Nestor Torres when he was here in 2005

Yokano-san! Can't remember which year it was...

Old school fire engine spotted in Malaysia

Ok lah...i post 3 first...

stress! stress! stress! in a way, luckily ndp stop alr, otherwise ill just die!! uni and cfg and projects are owning the sh** out of me! help me ah lim!!! i dun wanna flunk! meanwhile, its my pressure to showcase few pics from my hall camp..

PNDPC + BBQ

Hello A3...NDP A3...neh neh neh!

In fact...hello everybody!

The PNDPC was...well...ok. How many of you didn't attend?? Haha, but one attendee was damn gan cheong to leave the kaikan...

You can tell from his face that he is not enjoying the meeting and is most eager to siam! Muahaha!

It was raining for almost the whole day on the 23rd! Was worried that my BBQ event would be a flop! 

Turned out all was fine! It was still drizzling in the evening, but the event went on as usual, and almost half of A3 turned up! I'm so touched! Even with the rain, all of you still came for my PNDP-BBQ! From the bottom of my heart, thank you!

Mitsuo-chan and Hiro-san attended too. But they had to leave mid way for a Japanese festival at Changi. Mitsuo-chan's onigiri was a big hit! Basically, it's barbecued Japanese rice ball with soy sauce. Oishii!!! 

Towards the end of the BBQ, around 10.30pm, most of the people had to make a move. The rain got heavier too, and so the remaining A3ians helped to pack up and headed to my home. Before that of course, we had some photo taking done at the Clubhouse. Jason also gave a speech. Too bad i don't have the pics to post here :-(

Lots of fun and laughter in my cozy adobe as well! 

Having fun with my MacBook

The fun just never ends!

Jerry looks like a hamster here, a very BIG hamster!!!

After that, Mitsuo-chan and Hiro-san came back to my place, just before fellow A3ians left.

The 3 of us chilled out, while listening to Everly Brothers on my record player. Then Hiro-san received a call. It was Yoko-nee san, and she said she's at Woodlands MRT station, and would like to join in our chill out session! Yoko-nee san wasn't able to attend the PNDPC and the BBQ. I was so happy that she could come chill out with us! So, Hiro-san and Mitsuo-chan went to pick her up, and at the same time purchased more drinks.

In the meantime however, while i was waiting for them, Weixiang called up. He was also on his way to my home. Awesome! He brought his brother, Weifeng, along too! How cool is that? Another mini party in the works!

It was the ultimate chill out session@Woodgrove.

Sorry for the low quality picture. Taken using camera phone lah...

We chatted about the NDP times. How we got involved and stuff like that. We also talked about anything under the sun! I brought out some old photographs for everyone's viewing pleasure too!

And then, we had more fun with my Macbook! Absolutely no regrets buying this wonderful laptop!!!

As you can tell from the clock in the pic, it's nearly 3am, well into the wee hours of the morning! Actually, my clock is about 10 mins faster than ordinary clocks.

Anyway, we chilled-out until it was like 4am.

After sending them off, i just collapsed on the floor with a smiling face.

Ah well, A3 might have another event planned soon. Looking forward to it! Let's do it all over again peeps!

Evening time...

At SYC doing duty now neh! 6:58pm and very lonely :_(

When i was much slimmer...and fitter...snapped i think at Zoukout 05...

Hai...my PC hard disk crashed. All the photos i've taken over the years wiped out instantly. So sad.

I'm a very nostalgic person. Love the oldies. Wish to re-live an era that i wasn't even born in. The 50s right through to the 70s. Ah well...guess i'm a young old man...I even have 2 gramophones and a record player that i absolutely adore! Nee-san has seen one of my gramophones and record player.

Sigh...suddenly feeling "depressed."

Help! 

sad

wah ah lim! damn damn sad leh.. think really difficult for me to go PNDPC le. got cfg rehearsal same time... damn... maybe i join u all for ur A3 post celebration?.. hmm.. tink i wun be welcomed though.. especially with unfriendly weixian around. suan le la...

Happenings..

Hello!!!

16th August was quite an eventful day.

There's a new Soka U exchange student in town, his name is Kazuyuki. First met him after the NDP preview. Don't have photos of him though, if not you could see how yandao he is! :-(

Anyway, on the 16th, i had to do a flight with an instructor as i have not flown for the last 3 months. The club rule dictates that if one doesn't operate an aircraft for more than 1.5 months, an instructor has to conduct a check flight on one first before one could fly solo again. So, seizing this opportunity to get to know Kazuyuki-san better, i asked him along for the flight.

It was a pity that he didn't bring along a camera, and his mobile phone battery was flat! The snapshots below were hence taken by him using my handphone. 

It was a fine day, clear blue skies and awesome weather! We flew around Mt Pulai and to the coast via small towns like Pekan Nanas and Kulai, while maintaining a height of 2,000ft. This is the first time Kazuyuki-san has travelled in a light aircraft.

Yup, that's me conducting an external aircraft check. Inspecting the engine oil level of the Piper Warrior aircraft, registration 9M-TAT. Didn't realise him snapping this picture of me.

Clear blue skies @ Senai airport...

Oei! Don't take photo lah...shy leh!

More clear skies...aoi sora!

In flight, dark clouds starting to form, but it's OK! Hooo!

Another shot from starboard...

Didn't manage to take many good pictures. My camera only 2 megapixels lah...most pictures turned out horrible!

We had to cut short our flight, as SIA's Boeing 777 was also doing some flight training at Senai Airport.

After that, back in Singapore, had dinner with Hiro-san and friends. 

Then it was off to the airport to send Yamada-nii san off! You might remember that during one of the NDP rehearsals, i brought 2 Japanese friends along for the bus ride to Suntec City? Yup! Yamada-nii san was one of them. He's now posted back to Japan. Sigh, really gonna miss him :-(

Wah! Can see my belly sia!

Ah well, i guess a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do.

Later, from the airport, after sending Yoko-nee san back home, Yousuke-san and Mitsuo-chan came over to my place to film this for my zadankai on Sunday. By the way, how was your zadankai?

As the emcee for my district's zadankai, i opened the meeting with that video while hiding somewhere. Then, i appeared with a bang, wearing our NDP costume, to the tune of our Soka Flagger music. Instead of singing a song, i got everyone to do our dance steps! From jogging on the spot to 'valiant,' right up to 'hip hop!' Since this year's SSA NDP was a youth affair, the 4 divisions in my district got a taste of this year's NDP, and they certainly enjoyed it!

Remember, 23rd, BBQ@Woodgrove right after PNDPC@TBSC!

Have a great week ahead!

Ah Lim--->OUT
