Woke up bright and early today.. at 8 o’clock…. Considering the fact that I’ve only had like 7 hrs of sleep the past two days.. and sleeping at 11 last night.. I would have thought I’ll zonk out till like 10 or something? But no.. my faithful (read buay zhi dong) body clock wakes me up after 9 hrs of sleep…. Sigh.. not my day… Anyway.. got up.. saw Steve, talked abit.. about the graduation yesterday.. and how my kids do yesterday.. Gossip alittle.. and he told me that he will be going to pick Sam from the airport.. and then go for corn roast at the sailing centre. I told him that I’ll cycle there myself.. I’ve gotta exercise.. I see a belly coming up!! Horrible!!
 
Got to the sailing centre.. Saw Terry…. Talked to her abit.. and noticed a guy working on Ross’s opti.. Turns out that the guy name is Fran.. hmm.. I’m not sure how it is spelt.. but I would spell it as Fran.. Dave was there too… told me that he does one of the best repair work arnd.. It certainly seem that he knows what he is doing.. But I was kinda disappointed at the finish.. I would have liked to have a nice gel coat finish.. instead they used a glass finish.. which wasn’t bad.. I mean.. It was smooth and all.. but it sure could use some white.. instead of showing thru and showing the crack..its not very elegant.. I’ve gotta go learn how to do it.. and practice is.. so hopefully I can repair it myself.. Really.. all sailors should know how to do their own Fibreglass repair work..
 
Anyway.. Let me explain how this corn roast thingy work.. U dip the whole ear of corn in water.. soak it.. and then put it on the grill.. basically.. BBQ it.. without the sauce.. tsktsk.. the breed of corn.. is the premium type.. it is not the white..it is not the  yellow.. it’s the bastardized version of it.. there’s some atah sikeh name for it.. but I can’t remember.. anyway.. it’s the juiciest of the lot. So.. it is soaked wet.. u bbq it.. then u dip it in water again to cool it off.. then u pour butter and salt on it.. and ittish.. da best.. Uummmmmm.. but of course.. Ang mohs got a way of making everything sound so nice… its just corn.. dun be stupid.. how nice could it get?? Tsk tsk.. anyway.. for the sake of people that are reading and have not had a chance to try it?? Man… DAT CORN ROCKS!! Salivates WooHOo!!!
 
The two GArretts were there.. Eric was there.. Danny was there.. William was there.. another kid was there.. I can’t remember his name.. his sister was suppose to join the opti.. but she injured her leg.. sigh.. too bad.. she would have caught on pretty fast.. she forgot quite abit. But she learns fast.. Anyway.. I had a corn.. 2 hotdogs.. A storm threatened to come.. and we gotta hussle the people off the island in a hurry.. It din hit. Just some light showers.. pity.. Melissa was back at the centre trying to sail an Xcite.. but wasn’t able to due to the storm..
 
Dinner was hamburger.. and I went to cycle arnd with SAM to explore the place.. we got chased by dogs.. had a race with a dog.. n we won! Haha.. went to Essex Airplane strip.. it was nice…. There’s a car there.. with 2 guys and a girl.. she shouted ‘BYE’ when they left.. and they stopped further up front at a building.. we cycled by.. saw her.. and it was our turn to shout ‘BYE’ haha.. stupid.. but it was fun..
 
There’s an Arts fest happening downtown.. Eileen was suppose to call.. but she din.. I guess I was out.. oh well.. heehee.. too bad.. it would have been fun thou.. but some how or rather..i can’t bring myself to smile a lot arnd her. Haha.. weird.. Anyway.. my thighs are tired.. but I wanan do an hour of biking at least per day. To prevent the muscles from slacking too much..
 
Thought of the day: Still thinking about the jobs avail.. and trying to apply for it.. is that what I really want???????? Heck.. I think it never hurts to try.
