February 20th, 2013 "First Two Weeks of February"

Blink of an eye, January and February just gonna pass like that and it's gonna be March already in about 2 more weeks. It's true when they say time flies when you are having fun. The first 2 weeks of February have been awesome to me. It's been a busy busy one though with all the holidays and important days combining together. The first weekend of Feb have been a chill one, just spending lots of quality time with C and watched Ah Boys To Men Part II at Vivo with C and her friends on Saturday the 2nd. The second weekend of February onwards have been a busy one with all the long weekends and such due to Chinese New Year! We all booked out on the 8th Friday and I rushed down to Tampines to meet Sara Moi to buy her Samsung S3 after using my iPhone for the longest time. Just decided to try out something new and sort of a birthday present to myself. Went to sold my iPhone after that then met up C at Serangoon Gardens. They were singing K with Adeve, Guoren and Val. Then we went to HappyDaze for beers with Daryl, Sin, Abby and Natasha too after that. After a bucket of beer we went to grab supper at a nearby Prata House then I stayed over at C's house for the night. Woke up next morning on the 9th Saturday (CNY Eve) and headed back to my grandpa's house to fetch my uncle that came back from China for the holidays and brought him over to my house since he needed a place to stay meanwhile on his trip back to SG. On that evening, Alice, (Apple's Mother) called me to join their reunion dinner at Clark Quay with her, apple and her sister. So I rushed down to CQ and met them up at Jumbo Seafood Restaurant. After dinner we walked to The Floating Platform then went to esplanade rooftop Orgo for drinks.
On the 10th Sunday (CNY Day 1) Woke up in the afternoon and went over to the family house to "Bai Nian" and Skype mommy. Then went home to take a short nap before meeting up with Sin and Szeto in the evening. We went to Wee Seng's house to gamble with everyone at Yishun then around midnight me Szeto and Sin made our way to Galaxy to met the rest Keith, Daryl, GS, Steph, Wei Jun, Natasha, Abby and their friends there. 2 towers of beer and 3 bottles of Martell later we all went home and got some rest for the next day!
February 11th (CNY Day 2) Slept the whole day then went over to Sin's house to gamble and eat before we headed to Playhouse for Round 2 with everyone.. Me & C, Mikey, Sin, Val, Timo, WeiJun, Abby, GS & Natasha, Szeto & Michelle, Keith, Wilson and much more! 4 bottles and 1 bottle of Champagne did the job for the night! Slept in with C the next morning, then went to meet Val and the shell boys up at Gek Poh before Val flies back to Australia that day then went home and prepare to book in.
Felt like a super long weekend, but definitely a great one. Just too bad had to book in, was having so much fun that I forgot I'm a soldier, sigh. Well too much drinking for the weekend time to tone down and lay low at home for the rest of the month!

Additional Post: No Longer a Teenager
*Just an extra post I wrote during outfield on the night of my birthday*
It's my birthday today woohoo! Finally in my twenties now. I'm officially no longer a teenager anymore from today onwards. Due to outfield this weekend couldn't really celebrate my birthday this year properly and actually ended up spending my birthday in the jungle instead, but thanks to my awesome platoon mates, even though we are in the jungle they still manage to somewhat celebrated my birthday with me by making me a DIY birthday cake from butter biscuits and coffee then putting matchsticks on it as candles! Haha! So sweet of them! Anyways once the clock hit 12am me and Dan lit up my birthday present he gave me, a mini cigar he bought from his overseas trip to US and chilled through the night on the jeep. Of course had C accompany through the night too making me feel so loved haha! & just like that my 20th birthday is over. Gonna properly celebrate it this weekend though with everyone at my house!
Okay on the the important stuff, the stuff that's really in my mind. As everyday goes by, I can honestly say I'm living an amazing life, I'm happy with how things are going now. Although it cant be sunshine everyday but overall I'm quite a happy person now a days and everything is finally starting to go my way. All the stuff I been through in the past is what makes me who I am today. People may think I'm just another 20 year old kid but they have no idea what I been through, what I have seen with my own pair of eyes in just these 20 years. Although everything is going smoothly now but I will never forget my past, how I grew up and changed from a boy to a man. Even though im not as educated as the majority people out there but I can definitely say I'm much more street smart then most of the people who studied their ass off all their life. My mom always tells me, "Don't work hard, work smart'!" As a 20 year old, I pretty much have my life planned out already and know exactly what I want in life when most of the people my age are still uncertain on what they want to do in life, when as a 20 year old, I already have houses around the world, my own restaurant, amazing friends and family. What else can I ask for? Hopefully by the age of 25, I will have my own family and settled down by then so I can work my ass off til the age of 40 then retire and enjoy for rest of my life. Hopefully everything will go as planned since I choose this lifestyle since I was young. This is what I have always wanted and now it's time to put everything to work and show the world what I'm capable of. More then 20% of my life is over, just hope that the days will get better for me as the days goes by. Happy birthday to me :)
