so im sitting in my hotel room now. the holiday inn kuwait. just finished watching the man utd bayern match at this awesome place across the street. smoothest shisha ever with like 6 mega huge flatscreens giving me a headache to which one i should angle my body to view. and uber yummy kebabs with chips. disappointing to see my team lose last minute to a defense blunder but still an awesome night out with my teammates (:
so the tournament didnt go well at all. my timing was pretty off and i had alot of stuff going on in my head i somehow couldnt get rid of. games a little rusty now, think i havent been competing enough the past year. my heart actually pounded so fast on the first day. my adrenaline was uncontrolable like the last time and it wasnt such a great sight. i couldnt make the finals and im just left with two days in this beautiful desert city where the days are hot and sunny and the nits are chill and windy.
gonna go to bed now and sleep over a heavy head. quite pleased that i have went through a whole week and more without alcohol and my body is feeling quite the clean! detox in the middle east. gonna hope to wake up to a hearty breakfast and maybe an hour or so at the gym. all these kebabs and daily baskin robins are just gonna make me rounder whahhaha. oh well.
goodnight world.

okay so im in kuwait now. its about 5 hours behind singapore. really nothing much to do here except to sit in the hotel room playing online poker until its time to have a meal. bowling starts tomorrow and im hoping we can get in a few practice throws today in between. the exchange rate is really madness. 5sgd = 1kuwait dinar. and yesterday's dinner was 6dinar? thats like 30 dollars and you dont really feel it cos its like a single digit bill. wtf man.
anyhow i gotta settle alot of things in the back of my head by tonight if im going to have any chance of bowling well in the kuwait open. so much things going through my head and its been piling up. maybe i'll try to go run it off in the gym later or something. life has been so hectic back in singapore even with a freak accident 5 hours before i left. my girlfriend's friend kinda walked through my glass door at home and really severed her left shin pretty badly. just hope she recovers well. god bless you margreth!
no bb service for me here. its wicked expensive. like 2cents per kB. so anything just text me peeps. going for breakfast now. - eugene

its been way too long since i last wrote an entry. decided to put one in before heading off for a crazy night with cosmic gate. whoop whoop.
well ive been posted to sispec charlie coy and i out of coursed (of course! pun intended). found out i have like a huge ass back injury. like 2 degenerated disc, 1 slip disc and a bulging disc which would hopefully down pes me to c9l9 or my life this year is totally ruined. currently attached to the sispec guardroom and the school sergeant major, mwo limsongsiam is giving me total hell. sigh hate my life in army.
things on the bowling end have been pretty good. finally got promoted to the elite squad after like forever. got many tournaments to prepare for and its such a pity im in army now. 5 majors this year including asian youth cship in kuwait, asian bowling cship in uae, world men cship in germany, world youth cship in finland and asian games in guangzhou! really hope i make it to the asian games squad and get my dream gold medal. eyeing it since i started competitive bowling. one step nearer now. silly encik of mine didnt sign my leave form so i missed out on euro-challenge in paris and msia open. now ive to pray he releases me for kuwait in two weeks time. game has been a little rusty and i hope i can polish up myself again =s
been doing alot of reflecting lately. decided i wanna go overseas and build like a church or something meaningful after army before continuing with my studies. these's so much we can do for society and its so sad whenever you watch the news about all these chaos happening. we just take our own perfect lives for granted. we face problems like no money for pertrol or cant leave camp to attend some party. when people out there, fellow humans are wondering if they can survive the next 24hours cos they have no more food, living in poverty. no clothes or shelter. medication or clean water to drink. we're all too pampered and spoilt. not trying to be a hypocrite cos i know that im among the top of the list.
my life lately. army. bowling. partying.
hope it changes soon, i cant keep partying like that.
hopefully i'll check back in to blog again.
