A Nice Day Out

Spent a very interesting day with dear dear at the Singapore Air Show held at Changi Exhibition Centre. I've never once thought I would be going to the Air Show and I never knew it was such a big event. Truth be told, if it's not for dear dear, I would still be clueless about this event.

It was so exciting watching Singapore's fighter planes display their speed and agility in the air. Seeing how the pilots maneuver the planes in the air is awe inspiring. Seriously, I was filled with adrenaline when I saw the planes fly past. I could hardly contain my enthusiasm but it was contained towards the end of the display.

Personally, I felt that the exhibition hall is kind of redundant because to be honest, the items on display are for sale and who the hell can afford them other than countries and the ultra rich? You can see the exhibitors being kind of bored too. After all, all the VIPs have already made their rounds on Friday and have bought whatever they have came to buy.

The planes that are on display are a real eye opener. Too bad the queue was way too long, else I would love to sit in one of the cockpits just for a feel of it. Specifically the F16 because that's dear's aircraft.

Here's some pictures to share.


















The weather was crazy! Raining and cloudy at first and hot like hell the next moment.. I actually got sun burnt from just being out in the open for a few hours. Can't believe it because I hardly get sun burnt, even when I'm dragonboating. And now I have uneven tan lines AGAIN. Great, just great -.-

Oh my gosh... I realised I have been doing quite a fair bit of travelling this year alone. My aim was always to travel out of Singapore at least 3 times a year, and this year alone, I'm doing 2 years worth of travelling! I have been to Koh Samui, Koh Tao, Koh Pah Ngan as part of my Contiki trip, KL for company retreat, Taiwan for DB race and Sydney for work. All just in the first 7 months of this year... Upcoming trips I have planned are to Shanghai and Putra Jaya for DB races.. So all in, I'll be travelling a total of 6 times just this year alone. Think that means next year I can skip all my travels le... As if! =D All this travelling is tiring me out... Hahaha... Couldn't believe I will be saying this at all because travelling is one of my love... Heh. But then again, I will never say no to travelling lah... because it's always exciting exploring new places outside of Singapore :) I realise that when I'm overseas, I'm not that into all the touristy stuff...

Musings of the day

This morning I was going through my insta stories and saw Tony Gaskins (I love this guy) ask me a question session. It was so informative, and an eye opener to see so many people airing their relationship issues. It put a lot of things into perspective, especially seeing things from a 3rd party POV. Seeing what sort of advice all of them are seeking, the answer is already very glaring, but they are blinded by it and chose to ignore it. The same happened for me. The answer was glaring when I expressed my feelings a few months back, but I chose to hold on. Well, no more. When I finally opened my eyes and see things as what it is, I felt, free. Free from my own demons, own insecurities. And I felt ready to move on and focus on something else. What I have learnt is that true love never leaves you doubts and sadness. I have to learn to think for myself. On that note, I have decided to take a break from my DB team. Reason is very simple. It is a toxic relationship, one that limits my grow...

My heart is broken </3 Right from the start You were a thief You stole my heart And I your willing victim I let you see the parts of me That weren't all that pretty And with every touch you fixed them Now you've been talking in your sleep, oh, oh Things you never say to me, oh, oh Tell me that you've had enough Of our love, our love Just give me a reason Just a little bit's enough Just a second we're not broken just bent And we can learn to love again It's in the stars It's been written in the scars on our hearts We're not broken just bent And we can learn to love again I'm sorry I don't understand Where all of this is coming from I thought that we were fine (Oh, we had everything) Your head is running wild again My dear we still have everythin' And it's all in your mind (Yeah, but this is happenin') You've been havin' real bad dreams, oh, oh...
