Last weekend, I went shopping again... Argh. Spent so much money. Bought 2 pairs of pants from Espirit ($99.90 each), a watch from Swatch ($159), a bag from Converse ($79.90 but I have $40 voucher :p), a new sock for my Ipod Nano (after discount = $10.80). I nearly buy a cardigan from Topman which cost $96, a jacket from Espirit costing, after discount, $99.90! And my brother bought a pair of shoes from Converse. According to her, it is a limited edition piece with only 60 authentic copies in Singapore. I sure hope she is correct, cause the shoes costed a whooping $200. Wow... And prior to all these, we went to buy clothes from Giordano and Topman, spending about $260. Argh. Both of us are feeling quite guilty now, spending so much money. Close to about $ But I still got to get a pair of shoes and maybe a new belt. All for CNY man. But I am posting this because I am feeling guilty. Argh.

Sitting at Macs White Sands now. Just received a call from Jolene. Randy and her just had a radio interview for some of the CMM students. They asked me for dinner. But I actually supposed to be having a retreat for Union right now. So I cannot go and meet them. Do no know why but it suddenly occurred to me that I am missing out a lot of time with my friends. I am always doing this, doing that and busy with something or the other. And I think Life is just like that. When you keep telling people you are not free or something along those lines, they just stop calling. Although for me, it is not as bad as it sound. But I can foresee it will become like that soon. Here I planning for something, want to do something but I do not know why people are responding to it. Is it because I am too forceful? too lax in my management style? Or it is just my wishful thinking that by going all out for something, I will something in return? I really do not know... I am really getting very tired of all this... I really have half a mind of leaving for OCP... Should I?

Anyway, the first of the people I am waiting for is here already...

Completed TPSU's interim retreat last weekend. I felt it more or less achieved what I hope to do. Hopefully I made my impact.

Sigh... I would like to go for OCP Laos. As the tentative dates will be from 27 March to 10 April, I most probably will miss out D&D and 2 days of FOW. I know it is very irresponsible of me even to be thinking of going off and miss these 2 very important signature projects. But I really would like to go for this trip. This is my final chance to for this kind of trip (I may not have another chance after poly). I had spoken to quite a few of my mentors, advisers and peers. It is still 50-50.

Staff from SAA:
Lawrenz: I should talk to you guys but it is up to me. But for D&D sake, he hopes I stay.
Uncle Sam: I should not go as he feels it is irresponsible for me to leave when the important events are going on.
Hui Hoon: I should learn to let go and let the rest of you learn to be independent. I cannot be always around. I am leaving school already. OCP will be a whole new experience for me, I would not be getting it anywhere else.
I will be speaking to Kyle and maybe Cat later in the morning.

Ivan (My senior manager for SIP @ TECC): There was never a simpler choice. Just for the OCP. It is something I should do for myself. It will even reflect good on my resume. To him, good leadership is when a leader can groom others to take over him/her. Then that leader will be ready for the next level. If a leader is to suddenly leave or become unavailable, and everything stop because of him/her, then that to him will be very lousy leadership. I kind of agree with him...

Jason (RPSU's president): He will go. But it will depend on the situation.

Some of my fellow ExCos: Mixed feelings.

So what should I do? Anyway, 3 more days to submit my Final Report for MP but have not done much. Argh... But less than 2 weeks to graduation! :) I suddenly had a career that I was thinking of going into... Will I make a good air steward? :p

Congratulations to the Lions! The return of the Asean Cup to Singapore soil! :)

CNY is around the corner and more than a month had passed for the year 2007, hope everything is going fine for everyone.

Good Night Singapore!
