the beach outing was awesometastic. saw so many people that i haven't seen for ages. and so much food! sadly i forgot to take some pictures, was more concerned about the heat. i just sat around doing squat. the heat is killing me.
and so, the match between singapore and japan. was kinda hyped about it, but it seems that the japanese didn't really put out their best team. so i was kinda disappointed a little bit. other than that it was still a thrilling match, their passing was superb. and they have some real monster sized people in their team. it's really scary.
look at the top right hand corner of the pic, the blue blob is me! haha

| once again. please rise. | ![]() |
woke up at 6 am again for the 2nd day in a row, drenched in sweat. i seriously forgot how unforgiving the weather in singapore is like. showered 4 times in total yesterday, i think i should just give up trying to feel "fresh".
missed the a-div rugby final yesterday for a good cause. stepped into hwa chong for the first time in many months. and the feeling came gushing back, the familiar surroundings, the smell of freshly turned up turf.
met the new j1s for the first time too, first impressions weren't particularly positive, perhaps because of my intolerance to lateness, also the fact that no one brought their water bottles. but their passing had somewhat exceeded my expectations. still horrible nonetheless. there are definitely a few rough jams out there, the confidence to catch, the instincts to run for the gap, the athleticism, just that how polished those skills will become will really be up to the certain individuals. and the coachless situation has been laid to rest. i'm finally relieved.
today is going be another day to look forward to. sentosa in the morning, asian 5 nations in the afternoon. what more can i ask for. great company, and probably a compelling game of rugby always gets me off, even more so than drinking.
off to take another shower now. this is gonna be a hard fought losing battle with the weather.

2 more weeks to go exactly.
last exam on wednesday 14 days from now.
it's that time of year to dig deep, and find that motivation to work. for what lies beyond that is nirvana, pure bliss. just pray that the swine flu doesn't get worse so i won't get quarantined when i go to singapore.
i can smell the fresh dew on the pitch in the morning...
come on.

*CLICK TO ZOOM for FULL SIZE*
comments would be much appreciated, leave them in the tag box if you want to. there are certain objective i have to achieve with this ad, along the lines of:
what do you think this product is?
who do you think it's targeting at (e.g. high end, low end)?
what comes to mind when you see the images, esp. things related to cultural aspects (e.g. does it remind you of a particular country/culture)?
