Buzz off If You Think I am Cocky!

A long long time ago, I got bored and I started blog surfing when I came across a website called JustDate. Having absolutely nothing to do, I went to sign up and had this little profile thingy filled up.

Fast forward to the present.

It's been a while since I last logged onto the site, partly because I have been very busy, and also because I have totally lost interest in that site. However, I have been very very bored (AGAIN) cause it's the school holidays but with a bust-up knee, there is nothing very much I can do except to go shopping...and there is only so much shopping a gal can take in Singapore as everything looks the same after the 7th shop.

So, I did the next most interesting thing and that is to surf the internet (I know that is like NOT interesting but DUHZ...I have NOTHING ELSE TO DO!)

When I finally logged onto JustDate again after so many months, naturally my mailbox there was pretty flooeded but one particular message caught my attention.

He said, "hi, you seem to be very cocky... but anyway my name is darren ,waan try... or take that chance you mention pretty open-minded..."

Me? Cocky? I have never been called that before!!! SO...being totally pissed off and intrigued, I check out his profile and this was what I replied back to him 5 minutes later.

"Cocky? Oh well...watever. So the cocky me is gonna take away tt chance n fling it rite back in ur face. I dun give a shit if u r open minded cos with looks like urs, u cannot be picky. N jus in case u r wondering if I m offended...I dun give a damn wat u r wondering really. Have a nice day! or at least one tt is nicer than wat u r having now. "

I wonder how Mr "Maverickcity" will feel when he reads my reply.

But then again, with a face like that:

He looks like "Zhu Ba Jian" don't you think? You know...with the beady eyes and double chin and *GASP* curly hair like Miss Piggy's!!!!

I really dun give a shit.

Pictures of Mongolia

I dunno wat is fucking wrong with the other Mongolia post but it simply refused to let me post any more pictures so I m starting a new one just for the pictures.

Enjoy.

Muno, Me, Oichi and Yuen Lik (sitting) at the Gobi Desert Sand Dunes

That's Muno Teaching Me how to Leap off the Sand Dunes. Fun!

Oichi, Noogoi (Muno's wife), Muno & Me with a Bunch of Camels. Do you know that you can find double-hump camels ONLY in Mongolia?

Group Picture around Our Campfire..the Only source of Heat in the Middle of the Gobi Desert and it is freezing cold! Also notice that it is pitch black behind us except for the car headlamps. No houses, no streetlamps, no civilisation for miles!!!!

Our MPV got kinda stuck in a ditch so we all have to get out and PUSH!

Me and ALL the Mongolian Guides on my last day in Mongolia. The 2nd guy is Muno's dad, the only other gal in the picture is Muno's sister, 2nd last guy is Oichi, and of course Muno himself

Sighz...I miss those times and I miss them.

Mongolia Once Again.

The one and only (so far) time that I've been to Mongolia was back in August 2004. when I was still working in Singapore Recreation Club as a Sports & Recreation Executive. Then, my job was to bring a couple of members there to have the adventure of a lifetime, and of course, at the same time to enjoy myself.

Now...noone spends 2 whole weeks of living in the dessert, cooking over campfires, and showering in freezing cold water with 10 other people, without forging life long friendships, even if you don't get meet up with them ever again. I was no exception.
We had a couple of Mongolian guides assigned to us for the 2 weeks that we were there (to ensure that everything would run smoothly, that noone got lost, and so on), and of which, I became pretty close to 2 of them, namely Muno and Oichi. They were lots of fun to be with and they even taught me how to curse n swear in Mongolian! Haha *grinz*
Last weekend, Muno came over to Singapore for a visit and also to work with a friend, Poh Joo, to promote Mongolia to Singaporeans. They had a ger tent set up at the pavillion in MacRitchie Reservior with lots of beautiful pictures of the scenery of Mongolia.
I spent 2 wonderful hours catching up with Muno and reminiscing about the fun and wonderful 2 weeks we had spend 1+yrs ago. Muno also informed us that he is now a proud father of a beautiful girl named Michelle who will be turning 1 this coming April. Congrats Muno!
Here are some photos that I took yesterday, and some of the great times I had when I was in Mongolia.
Muno @ MacRitchie
Me, Muno and Chay Geok (She was also part of my group who went to Mongolia)
Though our looks have changed (both of us became so much fatter! =p ) and we may get married, have kids, blah blah blah...but our friendship will forever be there.
Bon Voyage Muno and hopefully we will be able to meet up again soon. =)
p.s I dunoo wat the fuck is wrong with blogger but after uploading those 2 photos, it screwed up on me again. Nvrmind...I'll try again later.

Thursday was Both a good n TERRIBLE day.

Woohoo...

Got my pretty new wakeboard on Thursday and took it out for a ride.
Smooth baby...Smooth.
Pops were bigger, landings were softer, and the trackings when I edge were fantastic!!!!
I heart my new board. And the board has a hologram effect too u know!!! So nice!!!
My instructor, Kenny's shop
Me and Da man himself, Kenny
My old board, 2001 Liquid Force Trip 33.5 + the graphics on its underside
My board now, hanging on the wall, inside Kenny's shop
My new precious, 2006 CWB Sapphire 134
Close up of the pretty pretty logo
2006 CWB Sapphire 134 + Board's Graphics on its underside
However... I was into my 2nd set when the terrible part starts.
Edged out REAL far to set up for a 2 wake jump. My instructor was kinda pushing me hard to clear the 2 wakes n told me to dig my heels in and edge in towards the wake.
Pop was fucking explosive and I went real high! Unfortunately, the phrase "the higher you jump, the harder you fall" proved to be very accurate in my case, and when I landed, my board slipped out from under me in one direction while my knees went in the other direction.
I could literally hear my knees went CRRRRACKKKK.... as I sink into the sea.
Sighz...in the end, I missed the last day of school on Friday, missed my last kickboxing lesson yesterday, will have to miss Muay Thai on Tues as I dun think I would fully recover in time, and more importantly, my 2 days of wake camp on Thurs and Friday will have to go down the drain as well.
Though I HAVE to thank my lucky stars that I most probably didn't tear anything and that it was just a sprain as swelling was minimal and after only two day, I am almost walking normally already.
Still...*Mutter mutter*
