[bigbrohu.blogspot.com] Where Intellectuals Gather

Now that I've officially ORD-ed and got my pink IC back, the truth that I'm a free man have already been quickly accepted, helped by the fact that I've already been clearing leave/off and MC since mid Dec.It had indeed been relatively busy for me recently and today I shall talk randomly about what I've been doing and also my thoughts in general.

My football dream is officially over with Balestier Khalsa not signing me up for their Prime league squad. Thanks to my SAJC coaches, they secured a trial for me and I've been on trial with Balestier for 1 week. Training with a professional outfit is definitely a wonderful experience which not every boy who plays football in Singapore can get and also getting to know the people there is a bonus as well. 1 highlight for me was that on 1 certain occasion I was asked to join the S league team for training and it feels real good when the Japanese striker could not get too many shots pass me. :) Though the running part was definitely not enjoyable, playing matches are and in the end, the fact that there are 2 keepers who had Prime league experience and that they got the nod ahead of me, it was nonetheless a valuable experience. Hopefully, I can be able to play my favourite game on a more regular basis in future, probably in NTU.

Another thing that I'm going to talk about is my recent employment as a cai shen ye, the God of Fortune. Though wearing the uniform makes me feel rather hot at times and that the beard really makes me itch(not to mention the stupid fake hair making it appear that I have hair growing out of my ears), the relatively high pay makes my efforts worthwhile. Also, coupled with the fact that I'm highly unrecognisable, or so I thought, drives me on to continue working. Anyway my debut as a cai shen ye was at Compass Point yesterday at the Tiger Beer roadshow. For those of you who want to check me out in action, sorry to disappoint you but my performances will be at various locations around Singapore. It is indeed not the hardest way to earn money and at the end of the night, I felt a sense of satisfaction, knowing that I had utilised my time well and not spent my time time as usual bumming at home. Back to the topic of me being highly unrecognisable, a former neighbour who used to play basketball with me actually recognised me in my outfit and asked me if I'm in desperate need of cash by taking up the job. I just told him that it is worth the salary but in actual fact, I'm reeling from the shock that he,who had not seen me for at least a few months, can recognise me apparently. Oh well, I think even if I'm recognisable, it is still worth the pay I guess.

Last but not least, I'm going to share with my readers my thoughts on clubbing. On 7th February, the day I was released from that horrible organisation, the whole gang of more than 20 people gathered at Zouk for the double celebration of our liberation and also Ro Now's transition to adulthood. Even though I honestly thought that I practised my New Year resolution of responsible clubbing well enough, apparently I did not really do that after hearing stories of myself post-Zouk. I guess i did appear to be looking not at my impeccable best in the club at times, admidst the alcohol and that artificial mental zone also known as being 'high', and also the novelty of Mambo nights may be losing its effect on me. Still, I will not be too quick to say that I will quit clubbing altogether, but I guess the number of times i go clubbing will be reduced significantly.

Apologies to my readers for the lack of photos, even though I did hint that I need a camera for my blog writing, none manage to catch the hint and buy me 1 for my birthday. I shall upload photos whenever I can.
