Shoppings, Outings and Weddings

Hey everyone, its been a while.. but I've finally decided to update since I think my last update was just under a month ago... Let's do some recap...

1st week: Reservist was kinda fun... meeting up with the battalion, fellow officers etc... though it was really packed for the first few days, but everything was great once we went outfield! Even had time to hold talk-cock session during the night.. hehehe =)

2nd week: This week was pretty normal... work was piling.. though a good thing was that I didn't have to really follow the deadline too soon due to it being a in-house project.. =P

3rd week: More work during the week... but attended another officer's wedding on Saturday... had the sword party again just like Jimmy's wedding.. and it was also good catching up with other officers from the arty officer cadet course! Loads of fun =)

4th week: Last week of June... We've been asked to go to God@Work church, which was first started by Ps Lawrence Seow, to help out in the worship ministry. So we'll be there tentatively till the end of the year and then we can evaluate and see if we need to extend our stay...

Friday
It's min's birthday today!! I thank God for my dearie cos she's always so encouraging and supportive of what I do.. =) Yesterday night went for bowling after dinner and today its the Jurong Birdpark!! I'll get the photos up soon.. I hope.. anyways the birdpark wasn't very exciting... the zoo's definitely a better place.. but there were still some memorable moments.. the king of the skies show, where i got smacked with a vulture's wingtip when it flew past (everybody was ducking every now and then cos the bird's low flying was really kinda too low), the all-star bird show, where min got sung a happy birthday song by a parrot, and probably the pelican feeding. Those birds are huge..

After that went to Sakae Sushi for dinner buffet... we kinda started way too fast... so by the end of dinner we were just about ready to explode!! it hurt man! just to try and walk it off, we headed over in the direction of the padang.. it looked fantastic man! the lights and screens and all.. in preparation for NDP.. still remember what we did last year for NDP in brissie... all squeeze into alvin's house and try to watch on TV the super small webcast!! hahaha.. well can't watch it live this year, but still can go see fireworks I suppose.. any takers?!

Saturday
Today is shopping day!! I had guitar lesson in the morning first... then I headed over to Sinamex to drop off my Les Paul for repair... then went to City Music... The guy demo-ed the PODxt Live again for me, including the software demo as well as the Line6 Variax.. AHHHHHHH *drool*.. so I dropped in my deposit for the PODxt Live!!! Yes finally i'm getting an effects pedal!! It's only gonna come in early August can't wait!! And after the Variax demo.. that's my next guitar target!
It's like having 25 guitars for the price of one!!!! And together with my PODxt Live, its like killer arsenal man!!! (min's gonna pinch my ears again!! she was equally excited loh.. =P) You can check it all out here at the Line6 website. Then it was her turn to shop... 4 tops and 2 pairs of slippers!! And its only the beginning.. i'm quite sure of it... considering that she still got vouchers to use.. hehehe.. =P

Ok I think this post is long enough for today.. I've got to get back to work.. hehehe.. =PAlrighty peepz, till next time!
