The journey begins here...

Batch 118th
2 May 2010 (Sun)
Johor Bahru, Malaysia
Convention Centre (beside Pan Pacific)

my 2 cents worth:
~the breathing method is refreshing-cool!
~gurugi mentioned about palmistry which am quite into this...not to focus too much on this
~surprise at how much respect disciples gave gurugi
~speakers kept repeating...or it could be the lack of sleep...or it could be the tone of the speaker...at times it could be a little boring
~for laughs: translator yawns in the mist of his translation; heard the "Omm" in the slient hall by the guy beside, prob trying to focus in cold & hunger
~breakfast: fried macaroni...nice but a little spicy, curry puff, tea or coffee
~lunch: Indian cuisine...nice
~i think the seminar can be shorten to a half day

1st method checking
RPT 7 May 2010 Fri 8pm

1st attempt to med
11 May 2010 Tue 12noon

breakfast & attitude

2004-05-30T21:06:00.000+08:00

morning

breakfast @ gardens market:

wat: pig's organs soup...Nice!...jerome had to Q for quite a while b4 his turn. he's really sweet & thoughtful when he decided to get me tou hua 1st b4 he Q when he saw the long Q & upon hearing tat i wanted to eat tou hua.

special guest appearance: auntie charlis from APS! can't believed she told me she lived in chua chu kang & came all the way here to have breakfast with a friend & her dad. such kind soul.

night

had an argument with bee:

wat happpen: drove him to AMK central when i woke up after my evening nap. wanted to be nice to send him there even though i hate driving. he understood & appreciated tat & persuaded me to just walk him to the bus stop. still i insisted to drive him there. he thought i wanted more time with him. wld love to but knew he has a pointed butt so just want to send him there & get a drink & go home. i just want to laze at home. guess i shd have communicate tat to him instead of letting him to think he needs to accompany me. on the way i was pretty snapping abt ppl jaywalking & finding a carpark space. guess frustration built up in us. he left his bag in the car thinking we wld be going home together. to his dismay, i just 1 2 get the MOS milk tea & go home. ended up arguing over MOS burger ice milk tea - he insisted i shd not get it whereas i really need a drink & an excuse of using the car after i complaint to my mum abt waking me up.

story ending: went home w/o the drink feeling heated, got an SMS on the way home saying he understood my good intention. all was well again.

to learn: guess it's learning to communicate more effectively again & me learning to control my 'snappy-ness' when driving. kind of stupid to argue over these little things. i guess it's not the drink it's my attitude & poor communication.

to note: more to learn. =)

bee's zzz

2004-05-19T21:12:00.000+08:00

durians...daddy bought 3 home tonight...all r finished by daddy, mummy & me...guess the jog i had in the evening wasn't enough to burn all i've eaten today...to note: more jogging needed...*sigh*...*taste so good*

feel good

2004-05-18T20:05:00.000+08:00

feel good after a jog...didn't jog for the past 13days...due to exams last wed/thurs...tat's an excuse to be lazy...hehe...*feel so good*

made tuna sandwich with mini *Get Well Soon* tags on it for jerome today...he hurt his back last sun...during the soccer game with his friends & sebby...despite his slipped disc condition and my constant reminders to take care of his back, he's still so into this sport...hope he learned his lesson...hope he get well soon...

relax

2004-05-15T21:55:00.000+08:00

foot reflex...feels good on a boring sat night...it's been a boring sat for me...guess it's aftermath of lousy attempts at 2 exam papers (last wed-macro & last thurs-mm)...waiting for soccer to start (newcastle vs liverpool) & jerome to come...it's his favorite team vs my bro's favorite team...hehe...i'm neutral...feel like zzz liao...
