woo, wkends again, but saturday has ended, sunday's all about studying i guess, since i've got 2 flights on monday, one's a real flight, the other's a simulator, originally they were planned on last thursday, but when i got on the plane and went to the EOR shed (a shed in the squadron b4 the plane goes on to the runway to take-off), the squadron cancelled my flight in order to let another senior take my training area, cos they need to finish their course soon, so yeap, cancelled, came back, then they planned me again to fly an hour later, so off i went on another plane, then went all the way to the runway, then just b4 i was cleared to takeoff, the squadron comm-ed us to abort takeoff, cos my new training area was now covered in cloud, so couldnt fly, and then we were stuck at the ORP(erm.. some place the planes go b4 they lineup on the runway) for like half an hour, then saw so many planes doing landings n stuff, after tat came back again.. haha, wad a day.. so, monday's gonna b doing the flight again, after tat the simulator.. hopefully wun get cancelled again, wanna get rid of my airsickness, or being not used to the helmet n stuff.. haha, november's already coming along, by dec we need to clear 1st solo, which is like the 16th real flight, so if i still get stuck at this stage, i need alot of catching up to do.. haha.. saturday was pretty much the same, wake up late, go for lunch, come back play game, then play soccer, injured my ankle tis time though.. hopefully its not too bad.. then dinner, and mahjong-ed till now, gonna play some game later and read a bk, then go slp.. hmmm

quite amazing tat i've read 5 bks already here.. finished the 3 i bought quite long ago, kup-ed another one frm a fren, and now i'm on my 5th bk!! haha, i tink i've read more bks here than in my sec sch n jc life combined.. w/o taking into acct harry potter though.. haha, read all the 6 bks liao.. and shit.. dunno if i'm gonna miss the movie when its out.. definitely wun catch it in singapore, heard it opens in nov.. ugh.. so dec mayb australia out le then i go watch or something..

on another note, coming back to singapore in december is getting more cloudy.. cos currently the instructors only want us to be gone for 1 wk, then after tat gotta come back n prepare for the new yr.. and.. the air tickets will be bought by the squadron if we decide to go back, then rumours are that it costs damn alot lah, heard its ard 1.4k-1.5k.. its crazy money for 1 wk in singapore lah, so i dunno how oso.. i mean i really wanna go back sg n catch up wif all my frens and eat my ba chor mee... but the money spent will b.. insane.. so.. lets just see how things go.. if not i hope we can tour ard the region.. there's a lot of vineyards ard here which i'd like to visit, plus a chocolate factory nearby.. and.. there's always the beaches which i'd like to visit in summer.. haha, and if possible, to visit the clubbing scene here.. can also go go-karting and stuff.. well so many plans for december, i cant wait till then.. but the amount of work i need to put in b4 tat is quite scary.. cant really just study last min now.. its too much work to be done.. well.. at least the 29 pgs of checks are more or less in my mind now.. quite amazed that i could now do them.. haha, and the stuff i learnt about the aircraft is mind-boggling.. yet i only know so little about it.. being a pilot is crazy work.. the amount of effort is really huge.. i'm damn impressed with all the pilots now lah.. especially the instructors.. wonder if one day i'll end up like them.. or just hope onto SQ226 or something.. muahaha, which is damn tempting and most likely i'll end up there.. yet.. there's so much to consider.. my uni degree if i'm ever getting it, my bond with the air force, my life as it seems now is constantly changing.. so many decisions to make which will seriously affect my future.. i guess i'd better start growing up, cant always try to enjoy life.. even though i'm young now and i really want to have more fun, but at this transitional phase, i had to make a decision.. have fun and have a cloudy future, or make a clear choice about what i want.. and put in shitloads of effort and sacrificing the enjoyment i can have.. i dunno if i'm able to be that strong mentally to give up the fun-factor.. i'm just 20.. damn.. i cant make up my mind.. haha

nothing in this world happens by chance
