Today was a tiring day, maybe it's because of the swim. well i challenged myself to see how many laps i could go within an hour. well i got 40 laps. not much but 30 of the 40 was freestyle while the other 10 was using the breaststroke style. next time when i swim again, i gonna aim for 42 laps.
Yesterday, the f1 took place. got to admit it was damn exciting, because i got buy. i bought the winning margin between 0-5.99sec so the first and the second car cannot be more than 6sec apart. at one point the gap 20sec was so far that i totally lost hope, until someone crashed. this allowed the safety car to be deployed meaning the lead of 20 sec is gone. so it was back to square one. but i almost got a fright when the second car was so slow, i almost lost it again. luckily the first car played it safe for the last lap so i eventually win lol. yesterday there were 3 crashes(1 ferrari) and lots of entertainment lol. if u missed it, i dont know what to say. even my grandmother watch abit lol... although she dont understand the meaning of driving round and round and round...

countdown 3 weeks before another marathon. die no time to train liao, so much things to do, and when i feel like going for a run, the weather dont permit. lol what the hell lol. hopefully i can complete the 15km without any cramps if not die liao. but we will go there to participate and not to compete so walking is also an option lol :p
my birthdays just 6 days away. although it's a one day event but i feel that everyday is my birthday. 21 years old so what, got the freedom so what. still stuck having to go NS and than have to plan on whether to work or study. after turning 21 is like having not much freedom, stressing a lot, growing white hair and retire. but we have to live life to the fullest. for me i am enjoying everyday, watching tv, playing games, blogging and also sleeping. if poly is stressful than working is nothing compared to that. earning money is already hard, but surviving is crucial. money is important but it does not always makes you happy. hopefully when i enter the working industry, i will have enough money to live my happy life with my wife and a few kids.
but i must find a girlfriend first. yup finding a girlfriend may be hard, but i dont think it is that hard. a guy must be open not be shy, which i am. a guy must not expect so much from their girlfriends. same for the girlfriend as well. has they must share same opinion, adapt to one's lifestyle, cherish one another, and must respect them as well. and most importantly give way to one another than they can tie the knot. it will be a life time relationship so we have to choose the right partner.

i've recently sign up for another marathon, the new balance which is on 19 oct. i need to train up but i am always not free or too tired to train but hopefully we will complete it and get the t shirt:p
it's been long since i last used my desktop computer, i've tried to figure out the problem. but the problem keep persisting. so i had it checked at the computer shop, turns out all along it was the hard drive. i've tried reformatting it like a couple of times but it still dosent work. damn furious not be able to use my desktop for games :p.
i've been thinking of getting some old games, but i dont know where to get it. i want to get lord of the rings:the witch king. it came out in 2005 if i am not wrong but i am not sure where to get it. i want it new and original so i will have a hard time searching for it.
i've just came back from swimming, quite tired though doing freestyle for 25 laps. other than swimming, i also jog, badminton, blog and play computer games. these are my hobby for now. it will keep changing when i find it bored. for now i am bored playing counter strike, cause i find that there are too many hackers in CS. i really hate hackers. cant stand them, cannot play so they hack, bunch of losers. i just want to get my com fix so i can play my other games which need higher graphics. i cant wait for next month, cause it will be my birthday, and government giving me ang pao. haha...

in this world, u meet people with different characters. 2 types of person in this world, ugly and nice. it's always good to be nice to other people but we should not expect the same treatment to us. that will be selfish right. one should not be too nice to a person or else you would have to treat the person nice all the time. we should always learn to say no. the word no is a very negative and yet it can be a very nice word. it all depends on the tone.
well i learned a lot in my part time career. well you see i've encounted numerous types of customers. the good one and the bad one. i've worked in macdonald, carrefour, shop n save and many other more. well i am always a nice person when i work but dont expect me to be too friendly all the time. i too can sometimes be vulgar. thats where people dont see the other side of me. i dont really like using vulgarities but sometimes it comes out naturally especially when i am furious or mad. when it comes to customers who are those irritating type or kuailan type really deserve to be hoot or beaten up. i've encountered numerous number of customers, especially the auntie and the uncle. once i worked in macdonald, the customer ordered filet o fish without sauce so it's a special order. so it needs time to be prepared. so i went on to do other orders first. while trying to finish new order, the special order was taken by another counter. i didnt see that la but the customer did. so he was mad lol, i told him it wasn't my fault cause i was busy. you know how busy macdonald can be even on normal days. so the customer complain complain complain, so i ignore him lol. i ask the cooking auntie to faster make another one. at that point i wanted to ask him to shut the F up cause he was making a lot of noises. when the burger came i quickly pack his things than give to him. lucky i good guy, so i said sorry la. than he still wanted to be a F***er, complain all the way till the escalator, saying dont want to come this branch liao, the staff like shit one la, so slow... all the rubbish things lol. ask him go F*** off la.
but most of the time i will meet good customers. sometimes i will talk to them, laugh laugh a bit. play around, have fun lol. thats what i like about macdonald, i had a lot of fun lol. i am always nice towards customers no matter what they do. i treat them good especially the small children. well their ice cream will be a deluxe heavy one. ok all the ice cream looks the same but theres a technique to it. well i played cheat ok, i know a technique to feel up the entire cone, while it looks the same. i also over pack the fries, and give lots of mayonaise. not like some give one packet so selfish. anyway not my money so give lol. when my friends come, i ask them what they want to eat. i tell them just order one drink, and the meals will be free. heres how to cheat. i ask them to come during peak period, so there will be a higher chance of not enough burgers. so the customers will normally wait at their seat while i wait for the burger. so i will pack the tray with food, drinks fries and dessert than i will tell my manager i go serve the customers. so one drink maybe about $1.60, i can keep them full and also, let them ta pau lol. good to work inside macdonald. but now cannot do this cause everywhere very strict got camera all over, steal one nugget also will die lol.
so next time, when u meet a F***er, just ignore them, and if you cant ignore them, just take them as air blowing pass the ear (dang zuo er pian fong)in chinese lol.

Tomorrow i will have a job and i will get paid. my job is very difficult. assist someone that is welding the metal. that's all i have to do. my task is to stand there and act as though i am working. so difficult enough that i am gonna get paid around 80 dollars just to do that.
Well the job came from my father's business. this company, which is quite big orders it's products from indonesia. the company in indonesia, provides the accesories and the skeleton of the machine. it's like ikea table, they provide the parts. and the company in singapore fix all the parts together. well, the quality made in indonesia is similar to the one made in china. so when they open the pellet up, they find many faults with either the machine or the workmanship. the company in singapore is dealing with machines for ships, big ships, so the standard and the quality must be there. the boss wants top quality one but the one provided by indonesia is shit(you get what i mean). this company in singapore has a contract until at least 2015 to provide machines to the ships, so it must be on time. well since the machine comes in shit condition, the company in indonesia has to bear the responsibility of paying the repairs. so thats where my father comes in. well my father is a 3rd man party.
some faults such as rusty metal and poor workmanship. so my father will take this parts, send to his friend's place to get it done. he will just have to sit in the office or find some other jobs for the business. but it's not as simple as you thought. the singapore company boss wants a high quality, workmanship so my father has to search around for good companies. lucky for him, he got his contacts and he knows his business well. so for the rusty metal, to remove the rust. you would have to sand blast with either sand or glass(seriously glass), it looks like sand but under the microscope it is real glass. so they will blast the surface of the metal to remove the rust. but doing that will expose the surface to air and moisture so it will rust again. the second process will be either applying oil to prevent the contact of moisture on the surface or to apply a layer of metal. well there are different metal, but the best is to use stainless steel. the company will use a heater to melt the metal until it turns liquid. than like a spray brush, will coat the metal with a surface of metal. the liquid metal will solidify immidiately because of the temperature difference. than it will have to be cooled and it will be ready. this type of jobs are the best to earn money for my father's business.
when i work with my dad, i get to travel around, meet customers, see how the business is run, get opportunities to go inside the factory and the best thing, i get to off when i like haha. some factory restrict visitors from entering their premises. i went to this biotech company called lonza which manufacture some kind of drug. let me tell you that their factory is huge. i literally have to walk about 15mins just to get to the other end. oh ya it has huge machines about 3 story high (not 3 story HDB height, 3 story factory height), thats how huge the machine is. and the pipes from the machine is like a snake never ending to another gigantic machine. but they have not start operations yet, when they do, they will even be more strict. i would have to wear the lab coat, another coat, shoe cover, cap goggles. it's like entering a space station. well the biotech company is looking for shelves. not just any other shelves. this shelves must be steady, easy to fix, will not rust and must withstand weight. well my dad has this racks, they are made of plastic. this is not ordinary plastics, they are high quality industrial grade plastics. it will not corrode or rust, can withstand 200kg for every meter, and is as easy to install, just like a kid playing with lego. it's also light portable, replacable. it's not cheap if you want to put it at home but they need it. this is a big company so it need a lot of shelves. great for my dad.
We also went to another company called camel. you know the camel brand nuts. sweet nuts salted nut, mixed nuts, what ever nuts they have it. my father wants to sell them the oil filtration. well oil can also be spoiled just like any other food. normally factory will either replace the oil every 3 days, or the will filter. filtering aint cheap but you got to outweigh the benefits of it. you see oil contains fatty acids and fats, good and the bad fats. why frying, especially when dealing with flour, micro particles from the flour will remove make the oil more cloudy. sometimes this makes their product look different from the first batch of oil. the colour will be different the taste will be different. not good if you are dealing with nuts. you wont want to eat different flavour of cashew nuts right. so oil filtration will remove this tiny little particles that turn the food bad. also it is good when auditors come. if they see the oil like kopi-o colour, the company will confirm die one lol.
you see sometimes it is also good to know what your parents are doing. most of the time it is quite sian but it is also exciting. so maybe next time i sure tell you more about the journey with my dad. :p

After reaching beijing, the stupid bus instead of taking us to the hotel, took us to the repair shop. until now i dont know go there for what. so while waiting we took this few shots.
They brought us to one street dont know what street cause i cant read, than bring us go candy shop buy candy so stupid. oh ya milk rabbit sweet dont buy hor later get kidney stone.

I stood there like a real idiot lol. this street totally not for teenagers. this one all the tai tai street got all the small little cute cute things.
This pic damn nice. the lake frozen during winter, so people got nothing to do, they dig one hole. put the fishing rod and bait put inside and wait for fish. although frozen but still got fish lol. and u can also ice skate on the lake. something you cannot do during the summer.
lol same as the one i saw at discovery channel. they always do the same trick.
We reach this place to see this rock called pa da ling. i dont know what it means for cause i cant read lol but i can guess 8 bells lol.
We at last reach the icon of china. the great wall of china. whoever build it must be damn bloody idiot. the nearest toilet is at the enterance. if u walk all the way up and you need to find the loo, you have to climb all the way down. damn it why no escalator. reaching the top is damn difficult. some more where all the thick clothing.

Lover's tree. if you make a wish especially love, it will come true.

i've manage to organise all the files in the computer so that it will run faster. especially the one in my dad's office. i've been doing lots of running around with my dad, see how my dad's business is going. well my dad is getting along just right so hopefully we can sustain the business. well my dad works alone, only some help with my mom and us(me and my sister) trying to take care of the family business. we also dont want to laze around at home doing nothing so its good to help my dad.

i have been also excercising at home jogging at least 5km 3 times daily. got to clock up the distance on my nike sports band. so far i have only clocked 65km total. soon it will be 100km i cant wait to run more. love running haha. but i think i wont be taking part in running events. why? no money lol. cant afford to pay $85 bucks for the run lol. i just wan to run freely whenever i want and for how long i want. just wan to be fit before NS.
i got to spend more time with my cousins and my nephews and nieces. we went to safra on last wednesday went swimming, went bowling and even indoor rock climbing. it was damn fun lol and very tiring. imagine swimming for 2 hours play bowling which was free(no joke) and rock climbing. i tell u its worse than running 10km. but damn shiok lol. but all this was sponsored by my cousin lol. $200 on all of us lol. can buy a new camera lol. but fun lol next time i will upload my pics in plus my old old pictures some damn nice lol. maybe i will put in some baby pics lol haha cant wait...
