I wonder if any of my friends keep having a particular dream, over and over again. I do, though they might not recur everynight. Sometimes the same dream comes again every few nights. I have had weird ones, sad ones, even erotic ones, but I will just skip on the last one.
A personal favourite of Vic and Jen was my dream of being chased by a ghost/monster, can't remember which one was it. Well it started off as a nightmare actually. I was in an office, surrounded by tables, chairs, the works. I was alone, and suddenly the ghost/monster appeared. Scared out of my wits, I started running, in the office, dodging the tables and chairs.
It, as you might have expected, started chasing me. So there we were, running around the office and this goes on for very long but in terms of dream timelines, it could be just seconds but it felt like a lifetime to me. Seeing as the ghost was not giving up and I was getting tired, I started thinking, "how can I get myself out of this?" So I stopped, turned around and said to the the ghost, "I'm tired of all these running. Why don't we stop and just get along?" It did, we stopped chasing each other, and I woke up. Jen called it my lame dream. I call it thinking out of the box.
Another one is a sad one. I dreamt that I was on my wedding dais. Mimi and I was looking happy and all, everyone was enjoying themselves. I was naturally excited as it was my wedding, but it was much more special than that. In that dream, my late grandfather was there together with us, sitting in his special chair, smiling. Looking at him, I felt so happy, yet sad at the same time as there and then I knew that it can't be true, that he was longer with us. I wake up crying, everytime I have that dream.
One week to go before my wedding, I really miss my grandfather.

Miserable day at home
Here I am, in my room resting. I feel miserable, but not as bad as I did after my 3rd cycle. I still feel nauseous, but this time, less of the vomity feeling. Not sure if it's different this time, or I might just need longer to detox from my recent chemo.
Meeting the rest again for steamboat this Sunday. Hopefully I feel better then. My only way to feel better is to drink lots of water. But water doesn't really do it for me, so I need to be drinking 100plus for now. I don't know why I have to choose an expensive alternative to water. Hell...
We got our pre wedding photos from Kak Lynn. It turned out better than expected. Some, less so. The outdoor photos were brilliant, I didn't turned out as awkward as I thought I would be. I'm thinking of showing the photos to everyone in facebook, but was thinking it might be too much. Maybe I will let those going on Sunday to have a look..

The day just keeps getting nearer.
Why is it that whenever the gang of SW0202 decides to go out for a simple dinner, it takes forever to decide the venue?
So this Sunday I will be meeting up with the gang (Well some of them at least) at Serangoon Gardens for dinner. Nothing special, just that I miss meeting up with them. Pity Mimi won't be able to come along.
It will be just over a month to go before our big day. Preparations are going along fine, our family are getting excited over it. Even more excited than the two of us sometimes. Like what I told Mimi, we are getting married, but it is their wedding. I don't really care actually how the wedding turns out, really. As long as my friends are there to celebrate it with me, and me and Mimi gets married. That's all I can ask.
We had our wedding shoot earlier in the week. I was quite sceptical about this whole shoot thingy when we first signed up for it, but as the days got nearer to the shoot, I must say that I was pretty excited about it. Not sure why, I just did. So the shoot went along pretty fine. We had 3 attires for the shoot. One was a traditional Malay costume. Both of us all decked out in fine malay baju, me with the keris and all. Second one was a Indian costume. I think I was in a Punjabi? I'm not very sure, but I think I looked nice in it, minus the head gear. I'm not sure about mine, but I was definitely clueless what Mimi was wearing. What I know is that Mimi looked nice in it. What am I saying? She looked beautiful in all the costume we had on.
So for the first two costumes we had the photos taken in the studio. It was really awkward, for me. I saw a preview of the photos taken of Mimi, and she was beautiful in every shot. I went "Shit!" everytime I saw mine. I am not the most photogenic guy in the world, and everytime I smile, I can hear Jensen going, "Ful, you look perverted when you smile". I can't help but feel a little bit self conscious. There were some nice ones, so all was not lost.
What got me excited about that day was the outdoor shoot. I had a suit on, and Mimi wore this red dress ala the Cancan period. At least that's what Mimi told me. We originally wanted to go to the Hortpark but it was raining the whole day and it only stopped late in the afternoon. Thought of going to Botanic Gardens as it was nearer to the bridal shop, but decided to take shots along the old shophouses in Haji Lane, near Arab Street. I'm glad we decided to do it there. The shophouses gave it an old-school look and the photos turned out great, we were having fun posing and I was very enthusiastic about it more than I was in the studio. The photo previews were great and I can't wait for the photos to be ready.
Now the shoot is done. Waiting for the invitation cards to be ready. I was hoping for the cards to be done by this week, so that I will be able to give it out to the gang during the dinner. Looks like I have to get their addresses first, in case I wont't be able to meet them soon.
Just over one month to go. I am getting married. Wow...

How I felt
First of all, thank you very much for the support, prayers, and not forgetting the gifts from all my friends, relatives, family and especially Mimi. I needed the moral support and you guys gave it to me just like that.
Even now, I am not very sure how serious my illness is, or will it come back, as the same condition or...
I am glad that I have support from you guys especially from my mum and Mimi because honestly I would break down if I have too much time on my own. I remembered how shock, scared, and angry I was when I heard about the tumor. Granted it wasn't serious, I knew it would change my life. I am the kind of person that plans. From my work, my daily life, my future with Mimi. What this tumor gave me was uncertainty. I was uncertained how serious it was, whether it would come back in the future, whether I was able to get my health back, whether I would able to give Mimi the life that I promise her all this time.
I wasn't sure how my future would turn out. And that scares me. I remembered when the social worker came and talked to me about the illness. It was the very first time someone actually asked me how I felt, emotionally. I cried. I cried as I told him how much burden it was for my family, I cried when I told him how it may affect my work, and I cried when I told him how unfair it was to Mimi when it was so close to our wedding.
At that point of time, I was thinking, why me? Do I think it's unfair? Definitely. Especially when I started praying again just before I got ill. But my uncle gave me a good advice. He told me that it was test from Him. It's up to me how I am supposed to go through this test and that I have to be strong. I'm trying. I am not giving up for sure, but it can be hard sometimes. Maybe this is God's way of punishing me for my sins.
If anyone's reading this, I am getting better. I am going to be admitted again for my next chemo treatment, and after that I will have one more cycle to go before the doctors decide if I need to have surgery to remove the rest of the tumor. Lucky for me, if I do need the surgery, it would definitely be after the wedding. I hope I will recover enough for the wedding. That's the least I could do for Mimi.

Best time, behind us.
Went back to NYP today. Took part in the HTwoO futsal tournament. We didn't make it to the the next round though it was pretty close. We lose the 1st match by a goal I think, drew the 2nd when we should really have won if it wasn't a bad mistake by our goalkeeper, and won the last match as expected since the the other only had 1 guy playing outfield, with the others being girls. I expected to win with a bigger margin though, but the rest were a bit complacent, unfortunately. But a win is still a win, eventhough it didn't mean anything since we blew our chance in the second match.
It was good going back to NYP I must say. Really brought back memories and laughter and pain some would say. Melvin was playing in my team so as we walked around NYP, we started talking about how fun life was in Poly.
Yeap, especially the time me and Mimi met.
Going for the marriage course tomorrow. No, it's not about how to go through a wedding, but it's more of a preparation of how marriage life would be. No practical I hope.
Wonder if E-Learning could be an option?

I want to watch Man U
Yes, I will soon be the proud owner of the new Manchester United jersey.
Mimi and me went to get some Man U stuff that is supposed to be the wedding gift to me. We saw some new Man U merchandise the other day at Queensway Shopping Centre so decided to do our shopping early.
Actually we went to the Weston Corporation at Peninsular but there wasn't anything nice there so went to Queensway instead. We bought one small Man U ball, scarf and pre-ordered the new jersey. Yes, soon it will be mine. On the 16th to be exact.
Anyway, since we pre-ordered the jersey, we will be eligible for the lucky draw to watch Man U play in KL. I wasn't thinking too much about it actually. All I wanted was the jersey but then the sales guy started some small talk with us and commented that there wasn't much application for the draw and that I might have a good chance of winning it. From then onwards, my mind started thinking, "Hey, I could be the one going KL". Time goes by and I started thinking, "Hey, now I really want to go KL to watch Man U".
Damn that sales guy.
Now I will be super disappointed if I don't get it.
Damn it.
Ok, so let's say I do get to go KL. There's a few things holding me back. Alot of things actually. 1st, I would need coverage for when I go over there. Finding coverage now is already so hard, no less when I have to take leave for the trip.
2nd, the match is on the 18th. I have the stupid marriage course on the 19th. I doubt I will be able to make it back on time unless of course I can teleport but that transport system seems like it won't be ready by next week so highly doubt that.
3rd? Hmm.. The fact that I have not renewed my passport? Very big factor. I should have put that as the 1st factor so that I don't have to think of the others.
So that's that. Somehow after all the legit reasons not to go KL, I still, deep down in my Man U loving heart, that I do want to go KL to watch them.
Damn that sales guy.
Why can't they come to Singapore instead of KL?

Fitness Assessment
Work just got a little more fun. For me at least. My manager just assigned me a small project to be done by end of the month. Not a big project exactly, but having something to do while working at the gym is getting harder to come by. I'm actually tasked to come out with a fitness assessment for new members who signed up for the gym. It's quite surprising it took us so long to finally think of doing it. I would have thought it's the least a proper gym would do.
It's not really new to me. Conducted quite a number of fitness assessment during the TEP at Bodywatch, but unfortunately not that much for me to remember exactly how it's done.
In my defence it has been more than 5 years.
So the past few days had me looking through my past notes (thank god I kept them) and the Internet on what to do for fitness assessment. I pretty much got all the information I need. Now I just need to do a little feasibility study on each gym, the costing, blah blah.
Personally on my part to come up with fitness assessment is not that hard. I'm more concern about how to convince the OICs to follow through with conducting them. From what I know the OICs can be quite, to put it nicely, unenthusiastic at times. Not sure about the other centres. Quite convinced how mine will react.

Owen A Devil?
I can't believe I watched Transformers twice. Can't beat Mimi though. She watched it 3 times.
Now I just have to wait for Ice Age 3 (3d of course), Harry Potter, G.I. Joe... Anything else I missed out?
So Owen is now a Man U player. Who would have seen that coming. Is it a wise choice from Alex Ferguson? Only time would tell. I am not alone if I think this transfer is a bit weird. Business sense, it's brilliant. Man U got him for free, so that means we still have the bulk of the transfer fee we got from Ronaldo's sale. Which means we might see more players coming in the next few weeks, hopefully.
But is Owen the same player he was? Nevermind that he was once from Liverpool, but can he get back the form that made him a legend years ago? I don't see it right now. Sure I hope that it is one of Ferguson's astute sense in play here, that Owen would be able to do a Henrik Larsson, and that his miserable time in Newcastle was because of, well, Newcastle. But can he make it at Man U? Will he fit into Man U's scheme of things? I don't know but if it's a gamble, it sure is a risky one since Man City is putting up quite a strong team, and the others are sure getting stronger too.
Only time would tell. What I am sure of is that I love Man U's new jersey. I love the black chevron, makes them look fierce. Too bad I can't get it immediately. Me and Mimi have plans to make one of the wedding gift to me a Man U-themed gift, made up of the jersey, Man U memorabilias and stuff. That means I can only get the jersey in 5 months.
Argghh...

Pay attention people!
My father had a weird encounter this morning on our way to work. We were walking towards the end of the platform of the MRT station when we saw this old man in what looks like a security guard uniform on the escalator going down. He saw my father and then started to wave at my father like a long lost friend. I saw my father's face and he was like "WTF?" but not without waving back at him. When I asked him who that guy was, he answered with a puzzled look on his face, "I don't know!"
Hahahaha..
I don't why but I'm closer to my father more than my mum. I don't talk much to my father though, which is sad if you ask me. Behavior-wise, I think I'm identical to my father. What you see in me, that's how my father is, truly lame. We have this weird humor that seems like only the 2 of us can understand.
Well, better late than never.
Happy Father's Day!
I don't know why we even bother putting up signs in the gym to inform members about upcoming events. They don't seem to read them at all. The shooting event for the AYG started today at Safra Yishun so carparks are closed until the 4th. Bear in mind that we put up signs everywhere. Not only the gym but the whole club. Still members come in today bitching about the carpark not being available and asking me what is going on in the club. Haiz..
Whoever said ignorance is bliss?
Hahahaha..

Rest In Peace
I was reading the forum section on Straits Time today at work. There was this feedback from someone saying that the weather forecast keeps saying it will rain in the east but most often than not, it didn't. Then he went on to say the the weather department should be audited to make sure that they are doing their job. Doesn't this make you feel that Singaporeans complained too much? As if the weather department just predicts the weather using a magic 8 ball.
"Is it going to rain today?"
*shake* *shake*
"Signs point to yes"
Had my secondary school reunion on Saturday. Went to Lau Pa Sat for makan. Caught up with them about old times. Nothing changed about us though. Still have our old behaviour, same old deluded feelings about some of our exes.. Haha..
Watched Transformers with Mimi on Sunday. Tried booking the tickets early before going there. My early was on Sunday morning. Apparently it wasn't early enough. Was only able to book 2 seats side by side after going to all the cinemas, all the timing available. Damn.. Alas I wasn't kiasu enough.
Movie was nice, some characters were nicer than others. Hehe..
The AYG is here finally. I wanted to watch the Singapore-Thailand match at Jalan Besar Stadium yesterday but couldn't make it since I end at 3.45 and the match starts at 4. The weather wasn't so good either (maybe the magic 8 ball was right this time) so rushed home instead to watch it on tv. Not bad a match, though we lost 4-1. The players have potential, and it's certainly interesting to see the future of Singapore playing.
Now is there anyone out there who wants to follow me watch some of the AYG events?
If only I was able to volunteer for the AYG like how I did for the Singapore Tri and Badminton Open in Poly. I like the feeling of being behind the scenes of such events. Makes me feel important. Not too mention how fun it can get.
The word lost a musical legend. Your music will touch everyones' heart, young and old, even after you have long gone from our lives. You will not be forgotten.
To MJ.

Blast from the past
I couldn't sleep yesterday after Prison Break.
The show. I wasn't in jail.
Don't know why but I suddenly remembered that I had a online journal before this. So I thought, "why don't I take a look at my past entries?" I thought I might just sleep after reading them, but I must say that my entries were actually quite funny. Haha, shameless I know. One thing I noticed when I compared my entries now and then, that I have more things to say then, even if I may so often say otherwise. I was more creative then, and the entries are funnier too (really!). I don't know if its because I'm working now, but I do feel like working at the gym is sapping away my intellect and creativity. I feel like I'm not as fun as I was then. Less lame too I think.
Other things that I have forgotten about my life then:
1) Me and the rest of the gangs were a really tight group. How tight were we? We did everything together. We all had journals. Well, most of us. And we kept track of each other's journal faithfully. Often scold each other to update. Haha...
2) I had this weird obsession with Kristin Kreuk. Well, she is pretty I must say, but I blame all this obsession on the Smallville series which were quite hot then. I'm so glad that I grew out of that.
3) I was a big Man U fan then. Now? Bigger fan. :P
4) I used to talk about girls in my old journal. Can't do that now. Will get scolded by someone.
I'm kidding dearie.. Hehe
5) I was quite desperate in love then. Probably why I did number 4 alot. Haha...
6) I was once headlocked by Neeta in a game of Captain's ball. Looks can be deceiving eh?
7) Jensen sure look funny in a turban. Hahahahaha...
8) Angela Tan hates mosquitoes. :P
9) How my relationship with Mimi started and that particular day she met my parents. So cute...
10)I have never forgotten this but the feelings I had then came rushing back when I read about the entry about my grandfather passing away. I immediately cried when I read back the entry. I miss him so much. Still.
Saw that my first journal was in 2003. Now its 2009. I have been writing down my life experience for about 6 years now. I hope that this blog would continue for many more years to come. I feel like other than being with Mimi and my friends, this is the only way for me to keep sane, vent out my feelings. To my friends who are reading this, I miss you all very much. We should meet soon, again. And those who have blogs, pick your asses up and update your blogs!
I promise to update more, be more funny and creative in my entries. It's hard to be more funny, since I am already so funny. Haha..

The show. I wasn't in jail.
Don't know why but I suddenly remembered that I had a online journal before this. So I thought, "why don't I take a look at my past entries?" I thought I might just sleep after reading them, but I must say that my entries were actually quite funny. Haha, shameless I know. One thing I noticed when I compared my entries now and then, that I have more things to say then, even if I may so often say otherwise. I was more creative then, and the entries are funnier too (really!). I don't know if its because I'm working now, but I do feel like working at the gym is sapping away my intellect and creativity. I feel like I'm not as fun as I was then. Less lame too I think.
Other things that I have forgotten about my life then:
1) Me and the rest of the gangs were a really tight group. How tight were we? We did everything together. We all had journals. Well, most of us. And we kept track of each other's journal faithfully. Often scold each other to update. Haha...
2) I had this weird obsession with Kristin Kreuk. Well, she is pretty I must say, but I blame all this obsession on the Smallville series which were quite hot then. I'm so glad that I grew out of that.
3) I was a big Man U fan then. Now? Bigger fan. :P
4) I used to talk about girls in my old journal. Can't do that now. Will get scolded by someone.
I'm kidding dearie.. Hehe
5) I was quite desperate in love then. Probably why I did number 4 alot. Haha...
6) I was once headlocked by Neeta in a game of Captain's ball. Looks can be deceiving eh?
7) Jensen sure look funny in a turban. Hahahahaha...

Facebook and Ronaldo
Yes, my will is weak.
Hi, my name is Saiful and I have a Facebook account.
So alright, it's not so bad I guess. I actually managed to see how my Primary and Secondary school mates are doing. Some are doing very well, some married, some engaged. Happy for them. At least I'm now able to talk to Frenky more, though not on real time but good enough.
Mimi had her hair cut yesterday. Looks very nice as always, but I wonder how it will look if it was shorter. She would have none of that of course.
I went to Queensway to 'have a look' at some of the shops. Ended up buying a new pair of Nike Cortez. It was nice and cheap, how can I refuse? After that I dropped by Pacific Coffee (PC) at Vivo since I got time to kill before meeting Mimi. If anyone else other than me and Mimi is reading this entry, or this blog entirely, I would really recommend PC to anyone who likes chilling somewhere and spending some time alone or with friends. Coffee is alright (they all taste the same to me) but the seats outside is my favourite thing about the place. Windy, relaxing and when the IR at Sentosa is done, I bet the view would be nice.
So Man U accepted a £80 million bid from Real for Ronaldo. I was shocked when I saw the headline yesterday but not surprised actually. His heart never seemed to be at Old Trafford anyway. Kind of glad he will go. For that kind money, it will be stupid for Man U to not sell a player who has his eyes on another club. I will miss his talent, but definitely not his attitude. I say, keep Tevez with the money and get one more world class player.

Day Seven
Last day of my leave.
Well, it was nice while it lasted. Looked forward to you for a long time and when you came, I didn't know what to do really. Lifestyle change. Just when I was enjoying you, you had to go. When will I see you again, I can't say. It depends on forces around me. What I know for sure is that I will see you in about 6 months from now, a new person, albeit with a new responsibility, a new life. Will it be a better life? I will do my darndest to make it better, not only for me, but for her too. Especially for her. We might rendezvous, here and there but I know that I will not be able to enjoy you as much as we did the past week. We didn't do much, but you sure made me enjoy life again.
Thank you.

Day Six
Second last day of my leave.
Starting work soon, not looking forward to it.
Most of my day was spent at work. During my leave. Damn. Had one PT in the morning, then wasted time until 2 for my next one. Went to Northpoint in the meantime for lunch, tried to read books at the new Yishun Library, but no mood so went to Sportslink, again. Saw some nice shirts, again. Nearly bought shirts, again. Stopped myself before I can do any harm. Saw a pair of Cortez sneakers that would be a welcome addition to the family. $78 only. Should I?
After PT, just slacked at home until I was forced to play badminton with my cousin. Injured myself, somehow. Was about to return the serve when somehow the shuttlecock hit the frame of the racket and ricochet to my right eye. Yeap, right in the eyeball. Happened to be wearing contacts, of all days. So there I was trying to hold back the freaking pain while my cousin was laughing at me. Embarrassing..
Tomorrow will be the last day. I'm going to miss my leave.

Day Five
Day number 5 of my leave.
Today was spent pretty much out of the house. Had the morning PT session, then went to my aunt's place to fetch my cousin home. Not before dropping by Causeway Point to do abit of shopping. Bought 2 more Nike tops and a new bottle to replace my old one. Bottle was more of an impulse buy. Should have seen me do my shopping. It was a grab and go kind of situation. Must not have spent more than 10 mins in Causeway Point.
So decided to take bus home from Woodlands. Big mistake. Ended up waiting for the bus for 20 mins. Maybe 20 mins, but I know that it felt more than that. Only reached home I think close to 2pm. Had lunch then took a nap before my cousin woke me up pestering me to play badminton with her. So there I was half asleep and playing badminton at the same time.
Another PT session tomorrow. 2 more to be exact. One at 9.30am and the other at 2pm. About 3 hours apart. Most likely going to train. How intense, depends on the patronage tomorrow. If there is too many members, won't be training too much. Better give members the use of the equipments.
Leave ending soon.
Damn.

Day Four
Fourth day of my leave.
Beginning to lose count of the days.
Woke up later than I would have loved to. Wasn't able to sleep the night before. Woke up just in time before Mimi reaches my place. Did nothing, just rested before she had to go to work. Me on the other hand had to go to work for this new PT that my IC handed over to me since he didn't have the time to handle it. A bit last minute but it means more money for me. I'm all for that.
Another young trainee. I have been getting young trainees lately. Don't really like it so much. It seems that in both trainees that I have, both looks like they have been forced by their parents(mums in my case) to take up the sessions. Not so ideal for me since their attention and motivation not as much compared to an adult. One that I have earlier seems to lose interest in the sessions. Well, I have to make the most with what I have. I just don't like how the parents expect so much from me to miraculously change their boys in just 10 sessions. Parents can be so demanding.
Went to Orchard with the idea of doing some shopping. Wanted to get some Nike shirts, a bottle maybe and a wallet. Didn't find anything. Super disappointed. I always never get to find things when I do want to spend my money. They appear though, when I'm tightening up my wallet. Damn.
So went to Westmall to have my haircut, then dropped by Sportslink to look around. Saw some nice shirts actually. Cheap too. So bought two Nike tops at just $65. Really tempted to get more. Maybe go down to the one at Causeway Point either tomorrow or the day after. Last time I remembered they have a big outlet there.
So here I am, the owner of two nice Nike tops, a new haircut and the desire of getting more tops soon, updating my blog. Super shagged. Waiting for Mimi to be done with work and reach home. After which I will sleep if I can, with this super hot night.
Why can't my room be air-conditioned?

Day Three
Day number 3 of my leave.
I am staying awake until Mimi finishes her shift. 1 thing for sure that I am getting during my 1 week leave is rest. Lots of it. I had better be re-energised for next week.
Didn't want to wake up today because it was raining. So nice, wanted to sleep in. I did, though only an hour more. Had an sms from my trainee that he was not free to come in the morning. Wanted to reschedule it for tomorrow but I smsed him later in the night to change it to Friday morning. Just wanted to make sure I can sleep in tomorrow.
No PT session, but I still needed to send my cousin for her hockey practice. So went out at 8, send her to school and waited for her at Burger King while drinking tea and playing with my PSP. She had breakfast once the practice is done and took cab to my place since Mimi was to meet me here.
Once at home, did nothing actually. Hang out with Mimi, slack before she had to go for work, unfortunately. Took a nap after Mimi reached her workplace, then played a bit of badminton with my cousin. Watched TV, played PSP and now I am here.
This is a lot of typing for a day spent practically doing nothing.
Read a headline on CNA this morning saying that Real Madrid had signed Kaka from Milan. Turned out that the Spanish press were a little premature about their transfer speculations. But you never know don't you? Players hardly keep their words. Say one thing, move to another club on the other.
Case in point is Gareth Barry. The one who had been complaining that he wants to move to Liverpool because of the Champions' League. Imagine the shock when I read on Soccernet.com when he actually signed with Manchester City. Is money the reason for the move? Only he knows, but my respect for him have definitely gone down a few notches. Only good thing is that Liverpool won't be getting him.
Also read that Tevez might move to Manchester City. I have no problem with that, even though of the City and United thingy. To tell you the truth, I don't really care for the rivalry because I'm in Singapore, I don't experience the heated exchanges between a City fan and a United fan. To the Singaporean United fans who act like City is a disease, stop acting. Again, to me it's because of the Liverpool factor. If Liverpool don't get the players they want, better for United.
United have got a new sponsor to replace AIG. They signed a new deal with AON, which starts in 2010, which will last for 4 years. Good news for United ever since the AIG saga brought all the uncertainty about United's future.
Anyone remember Denilson? Once the most expensive player? Guess where he is playing now? Vietnam. What a free fall.
That is all for Day 3. Hoping for a better tomorrow, literally.

Day Two
Second day of my leave.
Wasn't much of a difference between today and yesterday. Spent more time out of my bed though. Woke up really early. Fed the kittens, watched them run around and play with each other. Went for a short run after that. Stamina still sucked.
Watched Whose Line Is It Anyway on the laptop. Really love that show. Mimi asked me to send her dinner (I kind of wanted to, anything to get out of the house) and met her at her workplace to bring her Nasi Goreng. I saw the wrong timing, so reached there an hour early. So instead of slacking at home, slacked an hour at the Comtech. Waited for Mimi to finish her dinner, and thought of going Vivo or something, but I got too lazy and headed home.
Once I reached my block, saw my cousin playing badminton. What the heck, I joined in. Not very long, probably about 30 mins only. Had some laughs, then went home. So now I am updating here, while watching Prison Break.
Last season of Prison Break is here, 3 times a week no less. Would have finished watching it a while back, if the website hosting the video wasn't so freaking slow. I think I was stuck at episode 2 or 3. Now got the chance to do finally do it.
Have to go back work again, got another PT session. Same sequence as Monday, send my cousin for her hockey practice, go to the gym for the session, then fetch her back from school before going back. This time Mimi is coming along, since she is starting work at 4pm. Meeting her at Yishun, will be having breakfast then spend our day at my place. Miss her alot. The week that I am finally on leave, and she is working her night shift. Just our luck.
Tomorrow better be better than today.

Day One
Day 1 of my week long leave.
Started off early. Had to go to work for a PT session. Had to send my cousin back home at the same time for her hockey practice, which was eventually cancelled. PT session went off smoothly, and was asked by my trainee if I was able to train his wife too. No problem with me, though training them at the same time might be abit hard if I want to concentrate on both. Made tougher by their time restriction. Well, I can try.
Went to fetch my cousin from school after my session, then had Mac breakfast with her before heading home. The rest of the day was left for me to slack. Downloaded a few songs from iTunes, then made the playlists I have been wanting to. Mimi bought me an iPhone speaker, which is superb. Love it alot and the sound is fantastic. So after updating my iPhone, listened to the songs on my speaker and just dozed off until about 8pm. Watched tv all the way, and most probably sleeping after this update.
I'm not sure what to do tomorrow. Might either be running or cycling, depending on if I can wake up early. Slacking my week off doesn't sound so appealing. Might go out alone and hang at the coffee place in Vivo or something. Must force myself to do it though. Laziness slowly prevailing.
Went to the new club yesterday, and I must say it looked really appealing. Swimming pool looks nice, and the gym is fantastic. Spacious, kind of remind me of the old Planet Fitness at Suntec. Hate the positioning of the counter though. Right infront of the lift. Can't slack off. Honestly if they asked me to move to the new club, I might be giving it a serious consideration. We see how it goes, if it comes outs.
Well, 6 days left.

Life is good
Things are starting to look up for me. Financially I am a little eased. Not as worried I guess. Finally able to get leave from work for the whole week next week. Still have to go back certain days for PT but at least I don't have to wake up early and stay the whole day. I'm just going to spend time doing practically nothing. Just some R&R for myself.
Finally sent my Fossil watch for fixing since I kind of broke it months ago. I don't really know why I took so long. Bad thing is that I have to wait 2-3 months for it to be done. I didn't know fixing watches took that long but I was thinking, I already waited months before I got my ass off to send it for repair, what's another 3 months?
Man U were picked apart by Barcelona in the finals the other day. It was very disappointing actually. Man U just wasn't up to it. I wouldn't say that they got the tactic wrong. With the exception of Darren Fletcher, it was the exact team that was so effective against Arsenal. I really did think Man U would put up a better fight than the other night. They looked jaded somehow. Who knows? If the BPL ended on Saturday like the Primera Liga instead of Sunday, it could have made a difference. But then again, it was a second string team that won at Hull so no excuses actually. Credit to Barcelona though. They were really good. They deserve the title. Actually they deserve the title the moment Iniesta scored that wonderful 90 plus minute goal against Chelsea. First real shot and they scored. What luck!
I was reading an article on the Straits Time today about how Man U got a mini crisis with the issue about Ronaldo and Tevez. What crisis? The paper made it sound like it was a bad season for Man U. Well they won the World Club Cup, the League Cup and the BPL title even though they lost to Liverpool 4-1. They didn't get to retain the Champion's League title, but that's no shame. So far no club has done it ever since they change the format. If Ronaldo do want to leave, I wouldn't cry about it. He's good but Man U is not a 1 man club. Tevez leaving is more sentimental to me, but that happens if you have a price tag that hefty. I just hope he won't move to Liverpool. Point is, players come and go. Man U will still be a great club. They have a good core of players at the moment. And if someone is foolish enough to pay astronomical sums for Ronaldo, I say go for it. I have a feeling that his heart may not be at Man U anymore. We survived Beckham's exit, we survived Cantona's retirement, we can find another great number seven.
Finally sent my Fossil watch for fixing since I kind of broke it months ago. I don't really know why I took so long. Bad thing is that I have to wait 2-3 months for it to be done. I didn't know fixing watches took that long but I was thinking, I already waited months before I got my ass off to send it for repair, what's another 3 months?
Man U were picked apart by Barcelona in the finals the other day. It was very disappointing actually. Man U just wasn't up to it. I wouldn't say that they got the tactic wrong. With the exception of Darren Fletcher, it was the exact team that was so effective against Arsenal. I really did think Man U would put up a better fight than the other night. They looked jaded somehow. Who knows? If the BPL ended on Saturday like the Primera Liga instead of Sunday, it could have made a difference.

Do you mind?
I was reading the Newpaper yesterday. I'm wondering, do you really need to indicate how many years you have been a fan of a particular football club everytime you write in and when someone interview you? I don't see the point actually. Does being a fan of a club for 35 years make you a bigger fan than someone who is a fan for 5 years? Do your words carry more credit? I don't think so. I think it's more of a Singaporean culture that the more senior you are, that means you know more, that you are "special". Crap I say. They would say, the first time I saw so and so scored that goal, I immediately love so and so football club. And you are how old then? 7 years old? I bet you remembered the first time you said "fuck" more clearly than that goal.
And to those who always recommend people which place sells the best chicken rice or nasi lemak, keep the information to yourself will you. You might like it, but I might not, and that certainly don't make me an alien you prick. And stop asking me to go Chompang or Tampines every time I say nasi lemak or chicken rice. They are only food after all. I don't see what the big deal is about going from one end of the island to the other just to get a bowl of noodles. Even if I am stupid enough to do it, more often than not the food are no different from stalls at any other place. Mind you, they can get agitated if you disagree with them. Not to the extent of choking someone like the in insing.com advertisement but it can get pretty heated up.
Ha!
Just wanted to get that out of my chest.

Worst week ever
I'm lying in bed now, can't seem to sleep. Trust my brother to do something this stupid. How am I going to treat him like an adult if he keeps doing all these immature things.
There's too many things in my mind. I can't sleep. I'm like this when I worry. Worry about one thing, then start to worry about another. There seem to be so many things that I need to do, things I don't want to happen to me, or anyone I love. I don't take things easy. I just don't show it to people. I wonder if I would go mad in the future. I hope not.
The fact that I have been feeling under the weather is not helping. Been feeling like this for a few days. This week is not a good week. Having diarrhea, unable to sleep because of the diarrhea, had a big scare with Mimi, and now another situation with my brother. Been having bad headaches, body aching. Feeling weak all week. Bummed out that I still have to work.
I'm a slave.

Missing Sandals
Damn.
Just when I felt like doing a little shopping, what I wanted wasn't there.
Damn.
I went to Vivocity to get food for work when I thought, screw my budget for a moment. Let's get something for myself. After getting the food, went to Nike to look for the sandals. Didn't see the one that I wanted. Shoot. Wanted to get a T-shirt from Pull & Bear but don't feel like it since I couldn't get the sandals.
Damn.
Last time I saw the sandals were at Wisma. Don't feel like going there alone. Mimi is working late night shift this week, so she can't go with me. I feel like I can't do anything by myself now. No complains there. :P
Vic is done with his exams now. Told him to set up a soccer game. Which he did, on Thursday. Super efficient. Hope the gang can make it.

Enjoy your feet in your mouths
Finally, Mas Selamat has been arrested. I knew he did escape from the Detention Centre. You don't know how many times have I heard of people, mostly taxi drivers, who came out with all the conspiracy theories about him being beaten up and died and all the other crap. Ahh, a precious foot in your mouth moment.
Had my off today. But still had to go back to work. Totally my fault this time. Forgot that I have to apply for my OT claims before the tenth of every month and have them approved if I want them for this upcoming payday. If not, too bad for me and I have to wait for the one after this. I hope it's not too late. Have plans for the money this month.
One more day to rest tomorrow before work on Sunday. Not very sure what to do tomorrow. Very high possibility of me waking up late, which quite honestly I hate. Makes my precious off days shorter, and leaves me with less time to do all the things that I want. But then again, I always end up finding nothing to do except waste time doing nothing at home. If I plan to cycle, end up lazing at home. If I do decide to cycle, I end up not knowing where to cycle to. Maybe if I could get the bike shorts, I would cycle more. I doubt so, but it will at least get me the shorts that I want.

Rock is the way to go
I'm dead tired but I don't know why I'm so active. Playing air drums at the gym counter alone listening to Fade To Black and Toxicity right now. I bet I looked dumb on the CCTV. I'm so going to get Rockband after the wedding. Then invite all my friends to my place and play to our hearts content. Wahahahaa..
So looks like it's Man Utd vs Barca for the final. Sounds tantalizing. Definitely going to watch that. Hard luck for Chelsea though. Watched the highlight this morning. Chelsea really brought the game to Barca, but are so unlucky to concede that late goal. Well that is football for you. You can dominate possession all you want, but if you don't take full advantage of your chances, too bad. I really do think Man Utd will be able to retain the cup. Just hope the manager gets his tactics right again. If they don't, it's alright actually. I'm more nervous about the Premier League. Must do anything to prevent Liverpool from winning it. It's not like I hate them or anything. I just don't like them. :-) And Man Utd must do all they can to break Liverpool's league title record.
Looks like I'm staying back again today. Covering the counter duty until the part time CSA comes in. If she comes in. Don't really have confidence with this part timer. Why can't part timers now be like me when I was one? I would grab at any opportunity to work and earn some extra bucks. Well different people, different mentality I guess.
You know what? Metallica rocks!!

Will I ever go for my off?!
Shit. Can't go for my off again. On top of that, have to stay until 6pm for the part timer. It's one thing or another with him. It's not as if he didn't know about it. I don't know how much longer I can take his behaviour.
At least my beloved Man Utd won today. It was a superb performance from the players. Arsenal had no answer to them. And what a goal from Ronaldo. Final in 3 weeks time. Now they better bring this current form back to the Premier League and win the rest of the matches. Getting too nervous about the league title.
Mimi's not too happy about me going back late. Can't do anything about that. I honestly feel that I'm too nice to people. Feel like I have been taken advantage. I don't know if I would ever change.

Kitty Pics
Just managed to get the pictures of the kittens up in Photobucket. Just going to put them up here before I sleep.
Cutest thing there is.

The same kind of feeling
At work right now. In the end didn't get to take 2 hours off because my IC took his own 2 hours off so had to stay until he gets here. No difference since Mimi's still sick. He did ask if I could cover until 6pm. Didn't feel like it so told him I couldn't.
Feeling moody again today. Maybe because work today is slow, members are not streaming in as in other days. Very lethargic, but yet I'm not tired.
Man U - Arsenal is in about 12 hours from now. Since I'm not meeting Mimi, just going to waste time at home, and sleep early. Wake up at 2.30am for the match and straight to work after that. Going for 2 hours off tomorrow since I didn't go for mine today. Mimi's not working tomorrow so fingers crossed that she feels better so we can meet.
I think I can't spend as much time with the kitten as I would want to. Realized that I get all sneezy everytime I play with them, which is crappy. They are slowly starting to venture out from under the bed more, without anyone having to call them out. Very playful, always fighting with each other. They are slowly learning how to run too. Think I'm going to spend some time with them later on and stop once my nose starts to act up.
1 more hour to go.

Bad Kitty
What the hell was Halle Berry thinking of when she took up the Catwoman gig? I am kinda watching it on 5 on right now, and I am so glad I didn't waste my money watching it in the movies. I have heard of how the movie have been getting bad reviews from critics but didn't know it was this bad. Don't get me wrong, she is hot! But maybe she should finetune her movie choices now. More of Monster's Ball maybe? :P
Took 2 hours off from work today. Was supposed to meet Mimi who is on leave for 2 days, but then she fell sick so I had me some alone time at home. Nothing much to do but always grateful to leave work early. Work is becoming more and more like you do your stuff, I do mine kind of situation. Certainly not my kind of working environment. And the members have too much power. They might think they are right and they are doing what is good for the club, but they seem so hypocritical. Preaching one thing, and yet just blatantly follow their own rules when it suits them.
Yes, I am beginning to hate this job.
Taking another 2 hours off tomorrow to meet Mimi. Hopefully she feels better by then.
I am starting to enjoy blogging again. Very weird, but from my experience, I should just keep on blogging until the next hiatus.
So, I'll see you when I see you.

Wolverine Rocks!
It really is getting back to when it was once before. Movements are being limited, people stopped to make sure they had their temperature taken 1st. Dreadful isn't it? Well what has to be done, has to be done.
Mimi had a wonderful night yesterday. Before anyone gets the wrong idea, we went out shopping. She did all the shopping, I did all the carrying. I don't mind that actually. I'm not like this for nothing. Finally got her to spend on herself. Were quite a few nice tops and bottoms that she got. My turn next. When? Ha..
Watched X-men origins in Thursday night. I must say I like it alot. Alright, so it won't win an Emmy, but so what? What do people expect from a movie about Wolverine? Oscar winning performance? I love it though. Kind of interesting how the whole history of Wolverine came about. You know, I originally thought that Logan just had the power to heal himself, and that his claws were there only after the adamantium were infused with his body. Overall I just like the whole historical part of the show. Was fun trying to see who these mutants are and if I knew about them. A must watch for X-Men fans.
Now Angels & Demons next.
12 more days.

Weird Day
Today was a weird day at work and I was not even supposed to be working in the first place. Today is supposed to be my off day but had to cover my part timer at the last minute who has a paper. I was so pissed off when he told me that. Not so much of me having to work. More of me possibly missing the Man U-Arsenal Semi in the morning. Lucky for me I didn't, and Man U won.
So went to work, with a black cloud over me. Sleepiness didn't help. Then I got a message from the csa saying my IC won't be coming in because he's sick, and he asked me to find a part timer to cover him. Fuck...
So the whole morning I was frantically finding people to cover him. I sure as hell am not going to do full shift on my freaking off day. Lots of asking(begging) later, finally got one to cover him but can only come in at 6. Shoot, have to stay on a bit longer. Better than nothing I guess.
Problem settled.
Then at 1, my IC came strolling in looking as if he never even had a sniffle all year. What the...
Apparently he was joking with the csa saying that he was sick when he wasn't. The hell...
Don't really blame the csa. Who would be lying about getting sick these days? HELLO! Heard of swine flu??
There I was, dumbfounded (saw my reflection in the mirror, found out that I looked really dumb), and now having to tell the part timer that she don't have to come since there is already a coverage.
Haiz..
Things are starting to get better. Had a fairly good-looking haircut at Westmall, watching X-men Origins later at Tiong Bahru, and I get to enjoy the public holiday tomorrow. Had asked the part timer I covered today to do my duty tomorrow. Really need to rest.
X-men better be good.

Sleepy
I am so sleepy. Must be the effects from lunch.
What a welcome the rain is. It has been super hot lately. Woke up sweating a number of times already. Wish it would rain more. Anytime other than when I'm going to work or home of course.
Going to train later before I go down to Queensway to meet Mimi. Not much time to do alot, maybe concentrate on my chest. Or maybe do superset with my biceps. Need to start working out to vent out my frustration. Not really sure why I'm feeling this way. Abit moody lately.
Getting bonus soon. Not expecting alot. Keeping most of it anyway for the wedding. I think I need to get some retail therapy. Alot of things that are on my to-get list. Well, it's more like my "to-get-but-it's-ok-if-I-don't-have-them" list.
A bean bag would be a nice addition to my room. So would a speaker system for my iPhone.

Work hard for the money
Work is going to be much busier these days. The gym is implementing the PEP in our gym, meaning the trainers will actually have something to do around the gym. In a way, I am looking forward to it. I have the feeling the days I spend working in the gym is just wasting my brain cells away. I miss working in FHI. Missed the days I was working my ass off during the triathlon. I definitely won't be staying for very long. Ideally I will stay until the end of this financial year, after the wedding. Need all the money I can get for before and after the wedding.
We are already in the lookout for our house. Quite a few available, maybe just 2 that really caught my eyes. Really hope we can get it. Nothing I can do about that for now. Just hoping we can get an appointment from HDB.
Fingers crossed.

3rd, I dun ave an interested audience in my writings AND a decent topic to write abt.
Excuse me if im wrong though...
Speaking of self indulgent pricks that we can find on this small little island called Singapore...
Being in the service industry for more than 4 years now, those kind of idiots my "better half" talked abt are only, pardon me, a "small fry"...
ive seen and heard..racism remarks..nasty screaming customers whose vocab only consists of swear words..ppl w total disrespect for customer service ppl whom they call "operators"..
i just wish..that more focus wld be done for our dear countrymen to respect ppl in d service line...a smile. a Thank you. a "Have good day!"
would that be hard to ask?
oh wait. that's wat the Kindness Campaign is for.
Right.

i just wish..that more focus wld be done for our dear countrymen to respect ppl in d service line...a smile. a Thank you. a "Have good day!"
would that be hard to ask?
oh wait. that's wat the Kindness Campaign is for.
Right.
Last but not least, wats that part abt me not being ur better half. yet?
You better explain yourself, Mister.

Stupid Prick
Some people are bloody ridiculous. They are bound to be everywhere you go. What is so freaking hard about picking up your used towels and returning them to the counter?
Him - "You expect me to return the towels after I used them?"
Wish I could say - "Yeah duh. That is why we put up all that signages in the gym reminding people to"
Him - "I already wiped my feet with them, and you expect me to carry them to the counter?"
Wish I could say - "Yeah duh. I said towels that you used, not the ones others used. No other members have any problem picking up after themselves"
Him - "My hand is now clean, maybe next time I will kick it out to the counter."
Wish I could say - "Fuck off you faggot"
Haiz.. The price of being in the service line. No point going on about these pests. Not worthy to be spoken off.
Sleepy now. Didn't have much sleep last night. Was supposed to wake up early for the match, but ended up watching snippets of the match
while I go in and out of sleep. Good thing that they won though. Just a few more games to win it guys.
Tomorrow's the annual D&D here at my clubhouse. About 90% sure I'm not going. Not a big fan such things. Went to last year's, didn't really think it was worth the time. Also with the fact that it was my off day plus my father's birthday, the D&D doesn't really sound attractive. Just hate the part where people ask me the next day why I didn't go. I won't say it to them, obviously, but honestly I don't give a damn.

For Guang
Another uneventful day in the life of Saiful. This blog is dying a slow death. A result of having two extremely lazy blogger running the show. Well I wouldn't say two actually, since Mimi is lazier than me when it comes to updating this blog. I'm here really because Guang asked me to update. Didn't know there was a living soul reading this other than me and my better half (soon to be at least). I told Guang that if I update, he must get a yellow card the next time he plays. This Friday's live game just got alot more interesting. Wonder if it was alright for me to say that here..
Got to admit that the Sleague has gotten alot more interesting. I wouldn't say it's as good as when I was watching it years ago, but better than the recent seasons. Was a big Tanjong Pagar fan back then. Too bad they are no longer around. Just hope some other team wins the title this time.
Working full shift today. Another reason why I'm updating. It gets boring here, more often than not. Wouldn't do it if not for the money. Earning extra here and there where possible.
Oo yeah, my cat just gave birth last week, a day before my birthday. I am the proud owner of 5 kittens. They are so cute. Will put up their photos up as soon as I can. Which would probably be next month, or longer.
