A New Chapter begins ;)

heyhey, I'm with Outward Bound School now ;) I'll be leaving to Japan with Huixian from the 24th of this month to the 6th of April, for my Sports Chanbara Training. Huixian and I will be there to view the cherry blossoms, which I've been told, only lasts for ten days a year! The trip is gonna hurt me pocket something fierce, but I'm working hard for it. I'll be slogging all the way till the 22nd, to get the moolah we anticipate we'll require for the food and travel and sports and training and food and snacks and food ;) Argh... hehheh... I eat too much...

Attachments went swell with a good letter of reference from Infinsys Technologies ;) ...how did I end up the OB way? ...with much prodding from Wifey and Ilija, i guess ;) had to go for 4 interviews before getting offered the OBS Instructor job. It was an interesting process, including a 3 day, two night endurance camp on Pulau Ubin. Those crazy days felt like a weird parallel of Survivor ;) All in all, it was a challenging experience.

Attachments came to an early end, supervisor agreed to release me, as my ol company needed help at the IT Exhibition at Suntec City from Wed till Sun. twas interestingly manic as usual, dabbled with the Microsoft product line again, the XBOX 360 launch this time, met old friends and long-lost loyal customers. Will slog till the 22nd, then pack, then it's off to Japan for two weeks for Sports Chanbara training, then back on the 6th, for wife's 2nd Degree Honours graduation ceremony on the 7th, then rest... then onward with me Outward Bound life.

Till my next update, have a great time, and keep smiling ;)
