man i know i havent posted in ages. but this is soooo fucking awesome i have to blog about it.
I just had this awesome dinner in gyukaku with the A&G projects team. SO. FUCKING. GOOD. its like tasting a slice of heaven in my mouth. the fattiness of wagyu beef, the melt in your mouth texture, the flavour. OH SO GOOD.
Havent had a night like this in ages. Where i just let people do the ordering, eat the food and not think about the price/amount of calories at all. just carefree eating. that has been ages.
and to end the night, whisky at Auld Alliance. so awesome too. owner who'd recommend whisky to you according to what type and flavour of whisky you like, without trying to push off the most expensive one to you (on the contrary he recommended this 14 dollar auchentoshan 3 wood, which was almost like the cheapest glass there. not the best whisky i've ever had, but oh so smooth.)
sigh. i feel so contented. if only i didnt have work to go to tmr.

recently, i've been mulling over my financial future, and trying to figure out a 10 year plan of my life. when i can finish paying my debts, when i can finally afford to take my mom to hawaii like i promised, when i can stop renting and start owning a home, when i can have that financial freedom i used to have when i was a kid. so far, it seems impossible, too far to reach.
with my knees deep in debt ( yes knees, not ankles), its going to be difficult climbing out. all i wish is that i can start work faster, and start paying off all these loans and shit, but it seems so far away. money keeps going out, but not coming in.
a condominium in bukit timah costs approx 1 mil for a 1 bedroom 1 bath. can you even imagine how much it'll cost to have a 3 bedroom 2 bath place? i dont think i'll be able to afford the downpayment even when im 40. its 600000sgd for DOWNPAYMENT. you can buy a freaking bungalow in malaysia. makes me wonder why i even want to stay in singapore. seriously.

Yes, so my exams are finally over and after a hell lot of moving around and packing, i'm finally settled. well sort of. Am in reading right now, living in J-Man's room, sniffing her scent wtf. But am of to oxford tmr (possibly) and then london the day after and back to reading on monday. Then, off to to London on wed, and Greece on thursday. nomad much?
The Greece Trip is not going as well as i planned. The idea of being armed with just my backpack and my railpass is just not feasible, especially since the mode of transport there is by bus, and my budget wont be able to support the number of hotels i'll have to live in if i dont make any plas whatsover. Though, i'm getting a tent from Eridan, and that will probably help out with the non-plannings.
Still, there is so much to do, figuring out couchsurfing, changing pounds to euros, booking ferry tickets, finding out exact locations of campsites, bus schedules ( wtf, they dont have bus schedules online) and on top of all of that, i still have to avoid riots. Man, its such a pain. I wish i had a videocam to capture all of this down. But the account is looking pretty empty.
off to poundland to buy some cheap ass batteries for my shitty cam.

i run at least 20km a week, go to the gym almost everyday, or at least do some form of exercise at home. but i drink, i sustain myself on cereal and canned soup loaded with sodium. i crave so much junk that it's bordering unhealthy. i have my vices that are just destroying my body, bit by bit, day by day. i hate myself for it but i cant stop. this is addiction. good and bad. i'm not living my life like i should be. i'm enjoying myself but it's not the way i should be doing it.
sometimes i wish i could go back. times like this, its just simpler to go back to the days when i lived my life healthily. days when i cooked proper protein laden food with oil-free sprays, mornings when i ate a normal amount of cereal and didnt crave for more. evenings of protein shakes with flaxseed. days when going to the gym was so ingrained into my mind, i just went without thinking, found every day when i didnt go unbearable. days when i went because i enjoyed it so much. now, its difficult to have a satisfying gym session when im too tired to function properly in the gym. when i have too much on my mind to savour every ache and every pain.
i run at least 20 kilometres a week now. i used to run at least 40.
