does time has wings?
its july.
好快喔。
most of us would have gotten the 'drumstick'
but who knows when they will collect the whole chicken from us?
half the year is gone, looking back at the resolutions that ah KiaT's made, so far so good.
work is really getting busy, which is good! meaning there's money coming in.
there's still alot to be learnt. even though ah KiaT's been 1 month into the job, it seems that he is still abit 半桶水, but still all right!
meeting customers ALONE is really fun, enjoyable and challenging.
going to extreme places like Tuas and Ubi, all the industrial places.
okie u maybe wondering what's ah KiaT's bread & butter.
basically, he is doing trade.
setting up trade line for SME companies.
it's kinda weird selling here,
but 臉皮要夠厚！
if u happen to know any SME, regardless of which industries,
so long their business nature requires trade, or even commercial property loan
多謝噻, please refer to ah KiaT!!! :)
its somewhat very funny to see ah KiaT so hardworking,
bringing documents back to work proposal on a SUNDAY,
but no choice...
不談工作!
its coming to an end, WORLD CUP 2010.
ah KiaT's Portugal is out. so it's left to Espania.
雖然家中有申請收看世界杯，but it's still very fun and enjoyable to catch up with friends to watch together, either at his house or outside like simpang. lol
last world cup source is missing, hence this world cup, ah KiaT only play 2 matches which still pay bits dividends. :)
Beckham, Cristiano Ronaldo, Hidetoshi Nakata and ah KiaT all have 1 thing in common.
hahaha.
u may ask what?
well, we all have 24 hours a day!
so ah KiaT's not complaining he's very busy hence can't do this can't do that.
it's time to restart the run, swim training.
the meet up and the supper or drinking session.
suddenly got a urge to share about my work,
but it's better not to let work become my life!! GET A LIFE KIAT!
recently, there's something happening out there.
ah KiaT just feel bit vexed he cant really help.
well but, he can't help either!
okie, there's something utterly wrong with ah KiaT.
whenever someone talks about HONG KONG,
ah KiaT will for no reason lid up his eyes and engage in the conversation.
ala ambassador to HONG KONG.
but he really wish to travel back again,
and not just there. really feel like going on a short holiday in November.
and see, ah KiaT say 要學潛水，講了幾十年都沒去。
actually ah KiaT really hope to go back to Picton, New Zealand.
the mountains he ascended years ago, the beautiful sceneries.
我們的世界真的好美喔！

sundown marathon
back in last quarter of 2009,
when ah KiaT pressed the submit botton at the 84KM Ultra Marathon,
he wasn't kidding!
he was up and prepared for it!
following his motto, endure and excel,
he knows its hard, but not unachievable.
the weekly monday runs organised by Ben definitely helps alot in strengthening the muscle and mind.
the days leading to 29 May isnt that perfect.
haha excuses maybe, but ah KiaT doesnt feel good, legs feeling wobby and weak out of no reason.
perhaps the mind is playing a trick!
come D day, ah KiaT arrived very early as he anticipate a large number of cars hence lots are limited, which is actually not the case.
mentally prepared, he went!
ah KiaT is proud to say he completed 5 marathons before this ultra.
hence he believed he's ready! infact ever ready.
oh my tian.
how wrong can he get. the first 42KM sucks!
its like his 2nd marathon, where all pains from everywhere kicks in!
luckily, he met a fellow ultra, and they ran together to complete the 1st round!
seeks, ben and jesper were there!!!
it was a hugh lift to ah KiaT's confidence, as the confidence starts to diminish through the distance!
off we go, walking briskly through the the second lap.
1KM in 10minutes, and hence around 7 hours we should complete the 2nd lap.
pain really kicks in. fatigue kicks in. tiredness kicks in.
they met another fellow ultra and off they go.
but when they hit the 55km mark, the 2 of them fall out.
ah KiaT struggled to carry on. walking become a pain. and the decision to fall out is hard!
ah KiaT did that at the 66Km mark.
questions were going through his mind. it was that hard to give up. somemore its just another 18km!!
ah KiaT knew he cant carry on else risking further injury.
to sign up is already winning! know when to stop.
but the hardest question is how to say u want to give up.
approaching the drinks station, ah KiaT staggered.
volunteer: sir, want any drink?
ah KiaT: ehh. ehh. is that transport back? i ... i ... want to ... fall out..
hahahaha..
okie la nothing to paiseh about.
but its really that feeling at that time la, if u really understand. :)
through that lonely last 11km, full marathoners are encouraging ah KiaT!
"come on ultra!"
its really an experience la.
highs and lows.
but the feeling sucks when u sit at the finishing point seeing fellow runners finishing their run.
u feel proud for them but at the same time disappointed at urself.
YES,
lack of training.
ah KiaT learnt tapping during his army days,
yet he didnt put them to good use.
Patella suffered. everywhere suffered.
but the mind becomes stronger!
ah KiaT knows Ben is waiting for him, year 2011. hahaha
:):):)
[ps: which explains the reason why no photos here. no finish no photo. all photo in seeks camera.]
and dear seeks is very very good!
last year she drove all the way from Pending to Changi!
now this year, she visited me 3 times!!!
hahaha. thank kiu you!

its back!
this has been the longest ever break from blogging.
it seems like ah KiaT has forgotten about this site, all the posting dated way way back in year 2006.
a good 4 years had past.
how does one person life change throughout this 4 years.
4 years, 48 months, 1440 days, 34560 hours, 2073600 minutes, 124416000 seconds!
there's no particular reason to explain the reason of not updating this site, just like there's no particular reason explaining why this site is back on again!
however, these 6 months of absence can be related to work, school and plainly lack of inspiration.
yes. the inspiration to write.
regardless if its of cambridge english standard or speak enquish standard[definitely not proud to say that really],
its the freedom. the thought.
FINALLY, there should be a closure to the SIM days, hopefully. fingers crossed.
and right now, ah KiaT has stepped into another stage in his life and its an important one per se.
有人问，why not rest awhile before embarking on new job, why the rush?
well, its simply the plan ah KiaT had set in mind.
its been delayed. real delay.
life is quite pressing at work, learning curve is real steep.
ah KiaT supposed that's the case everywhere.
its pretty much having to expedite ur own learning in the fastest time possible.
perhaps, the stress had gotton into ah KiaT, as he is down with flu for past few days, and the buddy such as cough and sore throat and severe loss of voice followed. alas and to miss a football game today!
its not of complaining as ah KiaT really really see the light through this,
the prospect and everything! which is good.
but being raw in this industry, its better to learn as much as possible and to be open to opportunities and chances.
haven met some friends recently, especially the ex colleagues and the whole group of Hotstuff, and the soccer gang.
but there are some dinner dates coming in, and ah KiaT is definitely looking forward to them!
oh, wad's my working hours?
basically ah KiaT is on a 5 days work week, but days may end up as late as 8 or 9ish especially in future!
call me @ 9CALLKIAT now!
and unbelievable ah KiaT is actually studying his work!
oh please, let me hear good positive news in september.
its 4 consecutive years that birthday month isnt that good looking forward at!
all rite!
jiayou everyone,
in everything u do!
