I organized a talk today for some of my members. Looking at the attendance..it's rather disappointing. A few of them put my aeroplane..and a few other blur ones went to the wrong clubhouse. Haha. Nonetheless..the ones that came were very participative..making the session cosy and informative. Christerine, the trainer, is also a very nice and easy to talk to lady. :)

The swimming pool at Safra Mount Faber. Not many people on a Wednesday afternoon. Looks tempting eh. I must say the design is quite nice..haha. The much hyped solar eclipse this morning was a non event..rain clouds covered the skies..rather disappointing.

Thought of the day
I just came back from meeting an old time friend of mine. This friend and I, we go wayyyyyyy back. We have been friends for as long as I can remember, and he is probably my first "best friend".
Back in the primary school days, best friends were made and severed at the drop of a hat (you know what I'm talking about...."I don't friend you anymore!") Haha. We knew each other since primary one. Since the first day we met, we forged a unique bond with each other. This bond grew larger and stronger as the years past, subsequently when we got promoted to primary 2, 3 and 4. We used to hang out at each other's place playing all sorts of kiddy games. He was truly my best friend and play mate at that time.
After primary 4 streaming, we got separated into different classes, and we started to drift apart. We were still close, but not as close as before anymore. I don't visit his house that often anymore, vice versa, as I had to go for many many tuition classes. Catching games at the playground became less and less frequent. Finally we lost contact after we graduated from primary school. We went our separate ways, but every so often, I look back at at those treasured days wishing our paths will cross again, wishing those innocent days may yet come again.
Finally last year, we finally got back into contact! Credit to either Facebook or Friendster. Haha. Blast from the past! Cutting the long story short. When we met up again after all these years (more than a dozen), we still see in each others eyes, that playful and innocent kids that we were back in those days. We have come thus far in our journeys respectively. I ought to be grateful that my wish for our paths to cross again has been fulfilled, but I can't help but feel a tinge of regret for those lost years. We are still very good friends, but we could have been much more. He was literally the brother that I always wanted. We share so many things in common, even our personalities are very much the same. The invisible cords that tie us together, can only be that we were perhaps twin brothers in our previous lives (far fetched, maybe, but that is how I would like to equate). Not to mention that our birthdays are almost similar, we are separated by only 10 days, July 13 and 23. =)
Back to present time. I am very very happy to be reacquainted with a good friend, plus a few others whom also came along. It was truly a back to the old school reunion. May we all grow together, from strength to strength. Cheerios.

My sister came back from holidaying not too long ago..and she got me a present! She got me 2 really nice shirts (Thomas Pink and Paul Smith) and an exquisite Paul Smith cufflink to go with it. Thanks sis! Love you! Though the shirts are a little too formal for my work..my colleagues will probably think I am going to a fashion show. I'm not complaining! It's always good to be well dressed :)

A motivational poster sitting in my office pantry..it reads "There is in this world no greater force that the force of a man determined to rise." ...hmm..motivating indeed
Yesterday night I received a piece of bad new. My good army friend's mum suddenly passed away. She was a retired teacher. My good friend was uncontactable when she passed on late Wednesday night. He was in camp doing his reservist.
He was strong when I called him yesterday to offer my condolences. He managed to convince the Commanding Officer to let him end his reservist early. It is news like this that shows us the fragility of life. Anyone can go when we least expect them to. Only when they are gone, after you realise that he/she is not going to walk through the door again, that the harsh realities hit you smack in the face.So let us live our lives with no regrets. Shower everyone around us with love. Leave a legacy to the people around us, on the day we leave our earthly body for the eternal light.
Peace.
