I finally started my practical driving lessons this week, after so many obstacles, since i started taking my theory tests end of last year. and it was quite challenging, to say the least, but still a lot of fun, hah.

during my first lesson on wednesday, i kept stalling the car, cos i couldn't grasp the biting pt probably and released the clutch too fast.. and my steering sucked, like i was zigzagging on the course the whole time, esp when negotiating turns. but today was better, at least i had a better feel of the clutch, steering and could judge correctly when to execute my turns, but nonetheless, i still suck. then again, i guess its to be expected, since its only my first 2 lessons.

and after nuaing for 2 weeks, i started working this week at my former part time company, geberit, as operations executive; my job scope being inventory management and servicing. i also had tons to learn, mainly abt company operations and product knowledge. and although this week being my orientation week, was quite slack, next week on will be busier i guess, as my stores are starting to come in and i have to start arranging and managing the inventory after the rackings are erected. so well, yeah, im officially part of the ratrace liao, haha.

work and driving aside, today being saturday, i went down to cheng san cc in amk to play bball again, as i've been doing for the last couple of weeks, after finding some worthy opponents there. to my unpleasant surprise, the cc was holding some crap dinner function at the event hall next to the court and we were chased off by the cc staff shortly after arriving, saying tt we were disturbing their event. wtf.

made our way to another court somewhere ard amk, found nt a single soul playing, was on our way to another, met someone who told us tt court was empty too, so after some deliberating, we decided to take a cab to sengkang cc to play, since the court there was sheltered; and it did look like rain soon, and also because there were always gd players there.

so 5 of us squeezed into one cab, and the taxi ah lao was damn cool can, he played techno! somemore is his own cd, nt radio de.. we were quite pleasantly surprised, and he told us he got the same reaction from alot of other passengers our age too..haha.. when we finally got to sengkang cc, the court was occupied by some taekwondo class; although they were only using one side, leaving the other free for play, we were prevented from playing when one of them came and told us tt they had booked the entire court and tt their students would feel distracted by us playing ball there. he even gave us a smug snigger, like hehe! wtf..

shit, i was starting to think today must be 'world anti-basketball day', when we finally got to one court after walking for 10 min, and found some poly, ite kids playing there. finally! since we were sick of wandering ard anymore, we just settled down and played with them..damn shag now..must be the age and lack of exercise..haiz..
