Home Coming








Yes.. finally i can see the end.. the end of 10 plus months in a foreign land, which has become not so foreign.. today a few guys will be going back.. for me? pls pray for the weather.. hopefully i'll be back mid this week.. God has been good to me.. he gave me the best girlfriend, the best course, made me the best overall in flying, and sent me to nftc. when i first started to course, i told him to lead me to where he wanted me to go. i had really hoped for transport.. hahah!! but in the end i believe that we all have a calling and a higher purpose.. Thank u Jesus!!

How was perth been? initially quite boring with nothing to do cos we didnt know wad to do.. then summer came.. summmmerrr... it was the most interesting and fun time i had in perth.. the memories of the beaches and rottnest.. looking at the ang mo beach babes who u thought were on the covers of some magazines.. (mel i didnt really pay attention to them kk?) hah.. supposedly, some were really hot.. thats why the guys loved the beach.. hhaha.. so i bopian have to follow.. haha..
winter has been bad for flying.. rain, wind and all that.. hai.. now that im used to the cold, im not sure how im gonna adapt back to the heat in sg.. ah!! air-con..

anyway tink that my time back in sg will be a short one.. 2 weeks plus i think.. no time.. wads more mel's sch starts next week!! so how to go on holiday?? how?? go on weekend lor.. sigh.. anti-climax man.. booked a trip to bangkok.. going there with an empty luggage bag.. haha.. looking forward to that.. rest and relax...tom yam... asian food.. cheap food.. cheap stuff.. think being in aust has been good.. showed me how low the cost of living is in sg.. even with all the increases in sg, the prices here are still siao in comparison.. one small pack of fried rice with some meat 10 dollars... can cry.. chicken rice 8 dollars.. mee pok 10 dollars.. see also eyes pop out.. pop out also dont wanna go back in and see the other prices..

but visiting the instructors at the homes and sightseeing has been great.. dont mind coming back next time.. i've also learnt one thing.. ang mos know how to enjoy their lives.. relactose sia.. must try to relax like them.. find a coffeeshop in frementle, find a seat by the window or next to the street, order a nice cuppa and relax or read a newspaper.. good for the mind.. haha..

think having the 4 seasons is a great thing.. colours differ, clothing styles change to suit the climate and u get 4 different sets of stuff to do.. haha.. maybe not so many sets.

so aft sg, im off to canada, another seasonal country.. there the winters can reach way below the 0 deg.. trying to find good winter wear.. gonna need it when im there.. cant really buy here cos my luggage's almost maxed out.. bought new shoes, shirts and stuff.. (mel i'll try to get something from Supre kk?? problem is now its mostly winter wear.. so its kinda hard to find the dresses and stuff)

when i initially heard of the probable 2 weeks back in sg before flying off again, i was speechless.. but this phrase that i learnt together with my cse is this,
'the best happens to those who make the best out of the things that they through..' so im gonna freaking make the best out of it.. no let up.. maybe drive slower to save petrol.. haha.. but im gonna make my time in sg worth it.. spend as much time with her and friends as possible. with that, i'll see u soon..
God Bless!!
Cheers
