Got up real early today. Say 7am. Went to Khatib and bought breakfast. Every where everything is undergoing renovation. So plenty of shops are closed. The barricades may be an eye sore but I guess the end product will be beautiful. Guess I am grateful for such a lovely morning. Such freedom, such freedom.

Gear Up ! Destination Life !
Finally the hols are coming. I never did properly enjoy myself in 2 years already. Well, I am always thinking that way . I think I am such a lazy bug that every thing seems a chore to me. Anyway , my students are finally going to see the end of their exams. No more sitting down with them and explaining to them how electrons and protons work. How attraction and repulsion reign in this world. I am so damn sick of all of it!
Yah ! finally . The season of magic as i always like to call it. The season of love. and snow and christmas. My christmases in the past were plenty of melodrama, plenty of high hopes and finally dashed ones. But still I enjoy that magical feeling in the air. That feeling and anticipation of something wonderful is going to happen to you.
Once I had bought a cantonese album of Emil Chau near christmas . I had spotted it at around 8pm on a saturday night. Without any money with me to buy the cd, i rushed home and begged for 30 bucks from my parents and left with a cd player. That was how much I was mesmerized by this charismatic singer in my younger days. Happy that the stall was still open, i bought the cd and started on my journey home a happy man.
One of the songs is called Yue Man ( full moon). Still makes my heart go soft and warm everytime i listen or hum it. Shi ni zai yi , huo pa wo ye jie yi , dui wo shuo qi mo xie gu shi. Chi qing de kan ni , ran wo lian chu ban shuo mo ming qi miao de shi. I look at you, entranced, and started reciting half a queer and clueless poem....
OK I shall set out the things I wanna do in this season. The final month of the year . How shall I make it yet another unforgettable time in my life. I shall get more active. If i want to be a worm, at least let me be the hercules and michael owen of the worms!
I wanna DO Seasportssssssssss canoeing or kayaking!! Still remember fondly the times I had this FLORA .. this girl who has quite close association with mr gravity! on my kayak and I rowed her for 3 days and nights , singing and chirping all the way! SO I guess maybe i can even organise a canoeing expedition to some nearby islands and camp there. enjoy the nature sea and SUn!
Then I shall of coz try those alternate sports, maybe abseilling or wakeboarding. Or trekking. Cycling to malaysia ... Squash .. SOmething i have not experienced before! I shall capture all these moments on camera! I shall record down perious moments of my life. SUch vibrancy and passion!
Then return to Judo ! I need this ! I am addicted to judo . I shall train hard and hard. I shall practise new techniques, try new combinations and sharpen my skills. I shall begin my quest for the first again. This time there is no giving up and only the gold medal is my final stop. Been reading some comics , realised that I enjoy stories about competition and always the lead is some seemingly ordinary bloke with enormous hidden talent and slowly uncovering them in times of crisis. SO shall I .
Then there is the things I want to buy and the places I want to go to.
I want to buy a ROSE for christmas I want to get a soft toy of a **** . And I shall give it to someone I like. I want to get a belt. A cloth belt that can hang off my waist. I want to geta new pair of shoes. Mine is getting all worn out and tattered.
I shall go around savouring good food! I have already a few pacts in place to go makaning with soem of my good friends. Guess that Will be real exciting. Only takashima , being there today gave me the thrills! This fantastic japanese rice ball stick... coated with caramel like sauce that is salty and yet more sweet than salty when you think about it. There is always the mango julius that i like so much. The icecreams at orchard. and so much more.
I shall try my hand at some job that does not require much brains for this vacation. Maybe a steward or bouncer???? ahhaah interesting thought. ok i shall end here. nights
