Okay. I am doing this with a heavy heart, but it seems like http://mystical-warrior-x.blogspot.com is coming to an end.

It has been almost 3 years, I guess this blog has recorded how i grew, and in a way, help me grow as well.

But its time to move on. I will always remember this friend, and come back to visit it from time to time, to reflect and to continue growing.

Thank you for the memories. =) inveterate vicissitudes.

Birthday wishes are a special thing, wouldnt you agree? It comes only once in a year, one wish per cake. And then you have to wait for another year all over again. You see the point is if one was rich, one could go to star gazing spots all over the world to try to see a shooting star; or one could visit all of Europe to find authentic wishing wells, change a thousand dollars into coins and toss them infinitely into the water. But even if you had money, the best you could do is to fly against time to extend your birthday, and you would probably have to blow out the candles in the very plane itself, with meaningful company not included.

So with something so precious, what could one wish for? 19 opportunities has since passed me by. To be reallistic, birthday wishes for age 1 and 2 were probably almost impossible. Unless one was a child prodigy, which I am not. But as I grew up, though not vividly, I can vaguely recall the kind of wishes I made.

As a child, the world would revolve around oneself. Incessant selfish thoughts, even in early teenage years, that would probably be the case. I wish for that toy car, I wish for that toy train, I wish for that power rangers action figure. Then it would probably be like I wish for that mobile phone, that mp3 player, and materialistic ideas like that. Probably some of the wishes would not be so materialistic anymore but still selfish, say more freedom yada yada.

This year, there could be many things I could wish for. The iPod classic, or as my friend reminded me, the pink IC (or instant ORD =X). But I guess its a show of maturity, in recent years, wishes were not for myself anymore. I wished for my family most often I guess. But it struck me this year the reason I could have birthday wishes. And hence this year it was slightly different.

Birthday wishes are only possible because there are people who love you to celebrate with you. And it is only right to return the love, to wish for them back. And this year I did. And it feels like the best thing I could have done.

So, what will your next birthday wish be?

Short post. Running late. =x Okay this weekend wasnt so different as it was supposed to be. As in, the activity wasnt as different as it was supposed to be lah. Cause the badminton plans were off, so it was another movie weekend.

Kungfu panda was good lah. Funny. But short. And kids. Ate the place with free flow icecream and drinks again. Root beer float and cappucino float. =) The one at suntec is called onlynoodles. The one at dhobyxchange is called onlyacia. I wonder what are the chances its the same company. Lol. 99.99%

Today, I finally finished watching A Walk To Remember. I know its hell of a old movie, but I didnt watch movies back then. So yes finally, and yeah its a good movie. Boring starting, but touching at the end. And I love the songs. Went to the library planning to find the book but no luck.

Anyway, I think I successfully replaced a guitar string. It wasnt so hard after all. The plan next week is to do the other 5. Plans. Hehes.

Now for a slack week ahead.

Hello June! =)

Lol. Just a random post. Since theres nothing much to say this weekend. Which means things are going good, as usually my posts are not very happy.

Caught What Happens in Vegas yesterday. Was pretty good I guess, another no brainer laughable movie. Dinner was a wreck as everywhere was crowded. But finally got to eat at cartel. That being said, Cartel@RafflesCity should hire better staff man.

Interestingly, being a blood donor gave me free tickets to the zoo on my birthday. But oh well, see if I can be bothered to breathe in natures smell on the day. Its just another option lol.

Age 19 is coming soon. =S

From crashing dumb tea parties to free food, from yummy waffles to bad-tasting popcorn, from kebab in taco to cheese sausages without cheese inside, from popcorn chicken to an auntie dropping popcorn chicken on the floor, from boon lay to bugis, from scrumtious JCo donuts to supermarket sprees.

It was short but a good bookout. Trying out a new outlook. Be happy when you bookout and dont think about army, or booking in, or whatever. But I still felt down when I had to leave. Gah. Book in lo.

No matter how many times I have done it, every book in still seems the same. No matter how long the week ahead, no matter what is on the agenda, its still the same feeling of dread.

I hate walking around the supermarket myself. I hate it because its when I am all alone looking for a little something to make my week ahead somewhat better. I hate it when the supermarket sucks and has a small collection of sweets and snacks. I just wasted my time outside just now. =(

Ack. It has almost been 5 months now. I still feel the very same since the moment I stepped into this. And I suddenly recall why I chose not to go to command school. The precise emotions, the apparent weakness within. Sigh. 539 days! Thats like forever!!!!!

Yesterday was great. At least I got to see most of the people again. What we did was not important I guess, even when we were just sitting around at that random place, it was still beautiful.

Sigh. Good times are never enough I guess. All that I feel for the weeks ahead is dread. Dread of losing my freedom again. And that burnt weekend. Not being able to have time out.

I will miss you people. =(

The block leave is gone, in a blink of an eye. Perhaps I have been sleeping far too much, but yes the 3 days are over. But I guess it was rather okay. Block leave is not as wonderful as it sounds actually. People are either in army or working. Thankfully there are the people at poly, and also the unemployed (though they should really get a job soon), and thats about how I spent my block leave.

Day 1 was really about staying at home, lets call it reorientation back to a civilian life. And thats about what I did. Got my rest. Played PSP. Got used to using a computer on a weekday. And stuff like that. Though I would rather prefer to be out and about. =X Its called planning I guess. Staying at home abit so that I can go out more. Pleasing the folks.

Day 2 was an extension of day 1. Stayed at home pretty much. Today was sec school friends day, for old times sake. But I guess being at poly doesnt exactly mean they would be very free too. So it was only in the late afternoon that I left home. Didn really do much, but it was good catching up time. I must say I laughed more in 1 night then I did in a week at the army. Denan was super high, and for a good reason I guess. Just want to wish you good luck with the new commitments. =)

Day 3 was a finally a day that started early and right. Finally got to watch my $6 movie at Cathay Downtown East. And yes good movie too, Made of Honor is funny, nice songs, nice nice nice. Okay lah. Perhaps I am exaggarating but I am deprived most of my life so dont blame me. The rest of the day was kind of boring, the girls talking about their work and their stuff, but it was okay lah. At least I was not at home. Met Kenneth, Yonghuang, Leayee and Lixian for dinner. So it ended off pretty well. At least I got to see loads of people that I havent seen for a damm long long time. 2 weeks only actually. But hell it seems like forever.

So its over, but heck I got 2 and a half days more to go. Tomorrow seems fun, celebrating of May birthdays, though there isnt much of a plan yet. But been a long time since everyone was together. Hope all will be there.
