Quitting

Other than free tasting in malls, cutting classes to play Counterstrike, copying wrong answers during exams, I like to do a lot of things, things that at first, I thought would be my forte..

I once enrolled in Aikido and I thought I was the best at first but then came other people who were actually better, stronger, faster and I found myself quitting..

There was a time when jj (my gf) and I enrolled in Dancing classes. At first we were actually excited, we bought shoes, we even performed in the Recital but then I saw many kids and people same age as mine who were actually better.. not better, they are actually the best.. and I found myself quitting again..

I remembered when I was in High School I joined CAT to become an officer but then after all the push ups, sit ups, duck walks and squats for 5 months, I quit again..

Until now I still don't know where to focus, that I still want to do everything... Sometimes I feel like being a wedding musician with my violin.. other times I feel like training to be the best in Badminton and Table Tennis and join tournaments... but then with what I'm seeing in youtube and in Tampines stadium, there are so many people above me.. there are so many people who are better if not the best.. I feel like quitting again...

But no! I'm not quitting again.. I wanted to do these things because I like doing them. Not because I want to surpass everyone else but because I like them. I'm not quitting again..

It's fun to play with the strings of the violin, it's fun to smash the shuttlecock, it's hard to hit the pingpong ball, it's hard to be a pointguard, it's fun to look for free tastes in malls, it's hard to copy someone's answer, but it's harder to copy if what you're copying is wrong haha, it's hard to strategize in Chess, it's cool to be a biker, a swimmer, a dota player, a writer, a lover, a blogger, a programmer, a listener, a video editor, and most of all, it's not cool to be a quitter.

When everyone is smiling at you ;)

Be it the Pinevale gardener, the Pinevale guard, a chinese neighbor walking her dog, the bus driver, even the kind old Indian woman on the bus who keeps on talking to me even though I can't understand her and my earphones are plugged into my ears, the auntie who keeps our pantry clean, my colleagues, etc.

How I wish everyday would be like this. What a great day.

Smile can take your stress away. :)

Naruto! Just another fan's point of view. So fun to watch!

I've watched & followed this Anime Series for quite a while now.. hmm. since College? I barely remember. Hehe. Anyway, I admit that these series ate up a huge amount of time in my life :))



Those Akatsuki Ninjas are so cool they even have unique and cool powers too. Now I'm talking like a kid! :))



Not only the Akatsuki but the Tailed Beasts also known as Jinchuriki are also fun to watch. What a creative mind the writer of this Anime has. Unbelievable.



I advise that you watch this Anime if you want to kill some time. Great one!

A year at Pinevale Condo, Tampines, Singapore

Our contract will end on June 2011 here at Pinevale and I guess I'm going to miss this place.. I stayed at Blk 10, Unit 01-01 with the swimming pool right beside our unit. I'm gonna miss playing Tennis and Billiards here as well as using the Sauna as Endurance Tests with Khoi & Mark (stupid activity where you continuously pour in lots of water so that the temperature will increase to the point that your skins will burn ad you'll die because of dizziness or dehydration). God I will miss that! :))



I will miss our Tequila sessions here in our Living room just 10 steps away from the pool.

Meet Hershey!

Our family's cute and adorable Japanese Spitz!



She's so witty she knows how to follow commands, SIT, UP and ROLL! I will post a video when I have the chance. ;)

In Singapore with my lovee ;)

It was March 3 to 6, 2011, that my ever gorgeous gf visited me here in Singapore. :) We went to so many places and I really missed her so much!

First Stop: Ion Orchard



Next Stop: Marina Bay View



After we went to Orchard road and City Hall, We ate lunch at food republic, snack at haagen dazs, then dinner at glutton's bay.

River cruise



then Singapore flyer :)



Next Day: Universal Studios!

The thing that I liked so much here is the Battlestar Galactica roller coaster ride. A very highspeed ride with 2 options to choose from. The Human (red) where the seatbelts are just fastened in your waist and the feeling that you will fall and die is absolutely exciting, and the Xylon (blue) which will twist and spin your souls like there's no tomorrow.



Knocked out at the end of the day.

Basketball Court Fright!

I'm playing for a year and 3 leagues now for Citibank GRB Team and every time I play I can't help myself to remove the shaking of my knees, and fatigue is quickly eating up my whole body eventhough i just got into the game...
I need to solve this issue asap as I'm playing the Point Guard role and its very crucial to our team... I do hope I can fix this...

The thought of playing with other races in Citibank League and playing with the best Filipino Players in the ITBL is a frightening thing that I had to overcome in my basketball career..
