long overdue - part I

long overdue -
part I

well, as kinda promised or something, blog updates are back! cos finally my exams are over and so are projects gone for good (or at least for the nxt 6-7 wks). now i hav time to type and type and type and type my long long stories. wahahaha. 

see the title? it's only part I. so stay tuned for more...

now let's see. where did i stop the last time....hmmm. (exclude those posts that were not meant to be). november. hmmm. guess i'll date bac to december thn.

dn expect too much. it's pretty much summarised cos dec 2008 memories are a little fuzzy alrdy.

december. hmm. oh yea. a few days b4 i touched december. i finally passed and got my license. thn december term break was juz filled with projects and assignments. had an intensive foundational training camp for np sch team shooters, which didn quite met up to my expectations though. thn there was xmas. same old celebration stuff. nth special. made some new frens at the range b4 the year was abt to come to an end. welcome 2009 at dam's house with a bbq and countdwn with bowling at leisure park that nite. (and i remb one thing, beer and potato chips are really a bad combination. man. the taste seriously sucks. so bitter it makes ur hair stand. so dn try it at home or anywhere else. lol. unless you think you are gna like the taste of bitterness suffocating ur tastebuds)

and so to wrap 2008 up, quick and short and sweet. (here it goes):
(1) embarked on a few mths of prone mthly shoots but the training itself was dragging me into a near-financial crisis (lucky that was b4 the economic crisis came tumbling in. lol. ok that has no link. i'm not even working, as in, working with a proper job. hahaha.)
(2) (erm..) had a lot of first time experiences in the year of 2008. (though it does look like i'm gna hav my fair share of it in 2009 too.)
(3) shooting goals missed for 2008. both for AR and SB. pretty disappointing though.
(4) my second half of 2008 was more eventful than my first half. a lot of things happened so yea. lol.

ah 4get it. taz all for wrapping 2008 up. i'm like trying so hard to dig things out to end 2008. but it all feels kinda empty. 

now. onwards to the year 2009! my resolutions for tis year. hmmm. well they arent really up yet. hahaha. haven gave much tot to it lar. though i know a lot would revolve ard shooting again and possibly some vehicle related stuff? man. i dno. give me a few days to think. it'll be in Part II. cant think now. mind's all cranky after examinations. 

well, i guess i shall halt my Part I at tis point here.
stick around for Part II! (prolly in a few days time. PROLLY)

keeping them

keeping them

tis is yet another post that didn hav to be here. but certain things made me feel i shld write this. i dno. i feel really bothered by it. and i'm feeling pretty down over it too. ever thought abt how heavy the word promise weighs. it sparked me thinking and mulling over it pretty much now.

people say it with a very lighthearted treatment to the word. i dno how many do that and i dno how many dn do that. it's like having that word out of ur mouth is so light and easy since it only takes two syllabus to pronounce that word. but seemingly putting it into action seems to be a whole different thing. well of cos it depends on what kind of promise was made. 

i recall a personal msg on msn saying: if promises are meant to be broken, what is the intention of having them in the first place? well maybe promises has several different usage purposes. but. if u cant keep them, or fulfil them, why promise?

i admit i myself sometimes do commit the mistake of not being able to keep a promise. but i'll do everything i can to make up to it. i'm not making excuses for myself here. just that, it disappoints me as much to break the promise i hav for someone and much worse, if i dn even try to do something abt it. so waz ur say at keeping promises?

i guess i agree with wad was said. dn make me promises you cant keep. so better think twice or thrice the next time you to try promise yourself or someone, b4 letting that word out of your mouth. hmmmmm.
