Will I Survive July?

It's been an injury filled July so far for me. It seems that I can't seem to keep myself from getting injured one way or another.

First I hurt my back while playing football. Facing my goal and with an opponent behind me I attempted to clear the ball by juggling it a few times and clearing it with an overheard kick.With the ground being hard and dry as it was a hot day, I failed to cushion my fall and landed on my lower back. It's still giving me problems. Substitute pls.

Next would be how I hurt my knee. I was hanging out at my friends place till late one night and when the time came for me to leave, we chilled at his main door for a bit. Now he has this wooden bench just outside his main door which I failed to notice as the porch lights were not on. So there I was chatting with him for a bit before leaving and as I turned to walk towards the gate I rammed my knee into the bench. It's quite ok now.

So now you' d think I'd be in pretty bad shape with a bad back and a slightly busted knee and that I'd take things easy. That's what I thought. So I just went to watch a few friends play futsal. Having no football gear or anything with me you'd think I'd just sit back and enjoy the show. But no... I had to get talked into playing futsal.

Thinking as this was mixed teams as a few girls were there I figured why not? I'll prob just walk and pass the ball. No running, no fancy skills and no shooting. Should be alright. How wrong was I. I played barefoot as I was wearing slippers before. One time I was in possession of the ball and slowly walking to the side of the court to give myself more space and options who to pass to, Mary decided to run across me and try to win the ball. Instead she missed and trotted on my foot (insert *Crunch! sound effect here). That was pretty much the end of futsal for me. Apparently she and a few others heard the crunching sound and she felt really bad after. Fortunately it's just some swelling and no bones broken.

And So...

So we have finally concluded what has been a very average world cup and imo, the referee's provided more entertainment with their comic refereeing. But hats off to Italy. Best team overall by far.

So perhaps I've neglected this blog yet again. I shall now try to recall some rather silly stuff / conversations what took place while I went missing.


On our way to Poppy Garden one night...

Kanch - OMG is that a naked man over there under the flyover?

Tim - WHA...?

Louis - OH TIM WHY'D YOU LOOK?? THE CATS OUT OF THE BAG NOW! CALLING ME GAY ALWAYS AND LOOK AT YOUR REACTION WHEN KANCH MENTIONED THERE WAS A NAKED GUY THERE.

Tim - Pffft pls. It's quite a startling statement for anyone to say. Not everyday someone spots a naked guy in the open.

Louis - NO NO NO!!! IT OUT IN THE OPEN NOW! YOU LIKE MEN!!

Kanch - If that were true Louis why are you so happy and excited about it?

Louis - . . . . . . . .

Tim - Ha ha ha.


And another time not too long ago via SMS...


Lyn - Starbucks at 5 Tim. ***** asked me so it'd be great if you could come too ;)

Tim - Nah... I'll just mind my own business and let the 2 of you catch up on things :D

Lyn - You know I'll never forgive you.

Tim - Did you say Starbucks at 5?


That's about all I can remember for now... more to come I guess.

Ah yes. HAPPY BIRTHDAY NAIN!!! Prepare yourself for Saturday!!! MUAHAHAHA!!!

Someone Help SantaKel.

Tim - I am ashamed that I have not educated my younger cousin on the ways of hip hop and alternative music. LOL!!!! Guess what???

SantaKel - Huh?

Tim - I'm purposely playing a Boyzone song and I can hear him humming to it.

SantaKel - LOL! Oi! What the hell la! Own the dude! What is this pop shit!

Tim - You mean somethin like your Little Pony music download?

SantaKel - Eh! That was FARNEEEE! It's not like I hum it to sleep!

Tim - I wouldn't know now would I?

SantaKel - Now You do. I wish my PC would automatically play the little pony theme song each time Joyce comes online. But alas, MSN not that hebat.

Tim - You'd like that wouldn't you?

Business Partners.

Suddenly I seem to be much in demand as a business partner in various industries by my friends. I don't have a clue on some of the industries but their reason for wanting me as a partner is that they trust me and that I have contacts. Very interesting, I'll wait to see what they have to offer then.

Happy Birthday Nik Ina Naslisa!

Silly Thoughts.

Funny how we seem to grow apart,
Is it part of some unfolding mystery?
Or perhaps this is fated,
The way things should just be.

You never give answers do you friend,
Only ask questions that never end.
Do share your secrets wit me,
What are you hiding, what's your plan?

I sit here confused,
And unable to comprehend.
But maybe one day,
I'll come to understand.

And perhaps with that,
I'll manage to grow with time.
But now it's time to end,
This silly thing in rhyme.

Silly Steph's.

Kinda weird how I suddenly get caught in silly conversations with the 2 Stephs...


Tim - Stepfather?

Steph Ti - Hahaha I know. From Multiply!

Tim - I'm not that old to be a stepdad you know.

Steph Ti - You're the EEEEVIIIIL stepfather! Who doesn't give me pocket money, allowance or otherwise.

Tim - Ah... But I do give you care, concern and compliments. Those 3 C's are better than money.

Steph Ti - Aha AGREED! Yes, yes daddy! You're a lovely stepdad. Just sucks when it comes to money.

Tim - So does that mean you'll care and provide for me when you start working?

Steph Ti - Wah! Ermm... Wait for another 4 years ok?

Tim - Remember you said it not me :D


And then there was silence...


And something more disturbing...


Steph Fang - *PUNCH!* Ah... feel better.

Tim - You know there's another girl that can rival you already. Except she pinches instead of punches.

Steph Fang - WHO?

Tim - A girl named Yan Yiing.

Steph Fang - Wah! The name sounds damn cun. Well I'm happy for you hahahahahah!

Tim - I'm sure you are =.=

Steph Fang - Knowing that someone else is torturing you is music to my heart. Hahahah!

Tim - I shudder at the thought of both of you ganging up on me.

Steph Fang - You probably want to electrocute yourself first. It'll probably be the only way you can fend us off.

Tim - And risk paralyzing myself to be at your mercy?

Steph Fang - EVEN BETTER! HAHAHHAHAHA!


Ahh... Friends. Never a dull moment with them.

Yet More Rambling.

It's funny how things happen when you least expect them to. It's strange how people want to say things that can be so meaningful yet never find the right words. It's weird how good it feels when you actually do say it even if it doesn't come out the way you mean to say it.

I don't really know what I want to say or write in this post. And perhaps even after some things that have happened I might not even care. I don't fear the consequences of my actions or words. In fact I feel better after saying some things which I had to say. To get some clarity out of all the troubles and confusion which plagued my mind for a time.

Whatever may happen in the future, I have no regrets. None at all.

Some Serious Thought.

Sometimes you realize that the little things which you take for granted are the most important things in life. Just because they always seem to be there we take them for granted and neglect. It's been so long since I've actually taken the effort to acknowledge the people who have been with me through thick and thin. For their time and effort, for their support and trust, for their confidence and belief in me. They walk beside me when I move, they push me from behind when I stop, yet they never stand in front of me to block me from moving forward. That's when they pull really hard. They see me for the person I am and can be, always pointing out my little flaws so that I remember that I'm not perfect, but always emphasizing on my strengths and allow me to believe. Never pity me for my failings but acknowledging me for my accomplishments.

To those who have been there with and for me... I can never repay what you people have given me, I can never replace who you are to me. All I can do is offer my thanks, and acknowledge the contribution you people have given to my life. You know who and what you are to me.

Perhaps there really aren't any mistakes in life, only lessons. Where we tend to live and regret mistakes that we have made, we learn from lessons and avoid repeating them. I don't want to live a life of regret, hence I do not want to fail, rather learn what went wrong and pick myself up. I can always be stronger. Strength isn't always about physical capabilities, but it always is about indomitable will. GUTS stands for Genuine Urge To Succeed, and no one gains success by giving up. Set your goals and focus on them. They are the fuel that drives you. All the motivation you need can come from within yourself. You just have to want it bad enough. Try pushing yourself to exceed your limits, you might actually be surprised by the results. Who knows? Taking a risk might open a door to a world full of possibilities for yourself. Take a challenge, take a chance and who knows? It doesn't really matter where or how you start, what matters is where you finish.
