love is but an expensive and effortful affair

blogging in camp when i will be stucked in lim chu kang camp II for the whole week since i'm not on tekong duty. ever since my last post on april's fool day with a picture that struck a deep chord within me, i havent really had anything significant to blog about. but i guess, there's always a need to maintain a channel to release my pensive thoughts.

anyway yesterday, i was out with coco tan and old quek. actually it wasnt exactly a meetup since we only went for a brief lunch and was engaged in a love mission. you see... coco tan was celebrating his one month anniversary with his new found lover (half). and so he was showing us a hand made collage of their "memories" but the not so pleasant revelation was that his photos in his collage were falling off. and so after having our very brief lunch, we proceeded to popular to get some glue and scotch tape for some emergency tasking - to ensure that the collage was repaired in time for coco's meeting with her significant half to movies and a date at the night safari. and so in my usual jest, i was suanning him all the way e.g. " i want to go to night safari, but no one wants to go with me :(" and etc. you know it. old quek was even more hilarious, he blewn 2.5k in soccer betting because it seemed all too tempting to just up the ante when you don't see the cold hard cash in transaction. seems like his officer's salary has been put to pretty "good" use =X

back tracking to another day before... on saturday. we had a vertical marathon at tpy but although it was organised by me, my role seems to be downplayed :( not that i'm a power hungry individual but i guess recognition is one tangible motivation. but it's alright, i believe the opportunities ahead are plentiful. after that, i attended a "BREAKOUT! BE A TOP ACHIEVER" seminar at suntec. in retrospect, i felt that the $190 spent on the workshop was more inspirational than informative lest the first portion on memory tips like pegging. the other segments of the seminar entailed building meaningful relationships and conquering your destiny. i realised that i'm a confrontational person when it comes to managing conflicts. shan't elaborate about that.

most meaningful take away from the seminar was definitely from the last segment... because i have learnt to...

- celebrate what's right in the world and to truly believe in it so i will be able to see it materialising eventually.

up ahead, i guess there's many more challenges coming my way like my fundraising issues. i'm thorned between implementing one effective and impactful fundraising affair. just hoping everything will come clear to me as time goes by!

but no, it has to!
