I am sunburnt. The fact that i haven't been dragonboating for the past 4 months, i was rather delighted i can get back my golden tan soon. Gordon told me today it's like a trial to the RC chairman before they will grant us the sponsorship thus i went with a all-out-combat mode.

I only know that today is not D- day when i reached Bedok Reservoir. 
The Chairman was in the carpark awaiting out entrance.
My first impression was "that is nice!". The exact story was revealed to us when we started walking towards the boathouse where the equipments are stored. We are supposed to join into a hastely organised team that is comprised on grassroot leaders and residents from all ages and walks of life.

To be honest that i was abit of disappointed because the fighting spirit is always in my blood and for this occassion, everybody was here just for leisure purpose. Nonetheless, the training went quite smoothly except for some hiccups here and there. I was already expected to be whitewashed on the matchday itself. *Rofl*

Went to watched  Mr Bean's Holiday with dearest. I guess the title give you in the insight to the whole content of the film. Lame antics never fail to make me giggle and the obvious ridiculous content too. The few parts of the movie that is worth the ticket price. Mr bean trying his best to raise funds but doing some  strange dances according to the background music and definately the woman that they met on the way. 
I didn't want to be a spoiler so the bean fans u can always pop by the cinema for a dose of lame shit.

Today, i met this ex-RSAF pilot who is a KC-135 Stratotanker aviator. He is the kind of humble down-to earth dood u can meet on the street anytime. 
Althought he got the thoughts of transferring to SIA after his career in the Airforce, the 9 big papers before qualifying for as a commercial pilot and the constant distant away from home gave him second thoughts. In addition, he has a 6 year old son he need to cultivate to become the next pilot.

What he has emphasized to me is that, once someone get to the stage of finacial stability, money is secondary when family comes onto the table. He choses to stay in Singapore to work as a ground staff at Changi Airport instead the glamourous job as a SIA pilot. Maybe it is just me, if i can choose to end up as now, i don't mind being in his shoes. (*Hellyeah, who will mind).

I hate Mondays, can we don't have mondays in the week.
Can we have Tuedays to just Sundays.
