29th of september
It's a memorable day for me. Woke up at around 7am. Showered and rushed to the bus stop outside Block 619 to catch Premium service 556. Wanted to try the newly amended route. Just nice, the BC driving this service today was 1 of the BCs whom I know. He is known as Uncle Yeow. Took his bus to Fullerton Road. Upon alighting, I told him that I maybe taking his bus in the afternoon. He told me if I find him in the afternoon, he will treat me to coffee. After that, waited for 107 as I wanted to go to Hougang to catch the last Moove Life bus, SBS980Y. SBS2680A arrived first. Boarded it. Slept all the way to the interchange. Once i was at the interchange, walked out and check for sunlight direction. The direction wasn't right. After finding the right direction. Gave up finding and took SBS7319L on 147 to Clementi.While on the bus, I was watching the TV Mobile on the upper deck. But along the way, there were jams and I was frustrated. But luckily I reached Clementi before 1pm. Alighted at the MRT station bus stop. Went into the mall to have fast food. But there wasn' space. I walked out to the hawker centre next to the mall. Had fishball noodles for lunch. I quickly finished my meal within 20mins. After my meal, walked to Clementi Interchange. Found a place to sit down while waiting for Uncle Yeow's bus. 1304hrs, Uncle Yeow's bus came to the boarding berth. Got onboard his bus and called him. He was shocked to see me boarding his bus. He asked me alot of stuff like how come I came down to clementi in a short time and stuff. I slowly answered his questions. His first trip was crowded in a way that there were alot of students boarding and alighting. He was late. But he told me, he is used to being late as he doesn't take his meal break(he took his meal before he started his shift). Reach back the interchange at around 2.42pm. He asked me where am I going. I told him I am going to the canteen to have a cup of coffee. He told me to wait for him in the canteen. Went to the canteen. looked around, then I went to order my cup of coffee. By the time he reached the canteen, he asked me what I want to drink as he was treating me. I told him I paid for my drink already. Sat down and had a chat with him. While chatting, the canteen aunty as well as some BCs asked him who am I and stuff. He told them I am his "gong zi". Haha. It was funny. Chit Chat until 1510hours. Took his bus again. But this time, I took his bus to Jurong West Ave 5. His front bus was driving slowly. He had less ppl onboard his bus. So he had to drive slowly. Along the way, the wheather started to turn dark and it started raining. He turned back and asked me whether I need an umbrella to shelter from the rain. At first I said I don't need it. But when his bus reached my stop, he asked me again, I told him I needed to borrow it. Took it at 1 compartment of the bus. Told him I will return him the next time I meet him. He said it's ok. Alighted from his bus. I thought to myself, Uncle Yeow is willing to lend an extra mile by lending me his umbrella. I was touched by his generousity. If everybody is like him, it will be good. Even though the both of us are of different age, but we maintain the friendship that we have. I really appreciate his kindness. I don't know when can I even repay his kindness towards me. Maybe tomorrow I will find him to return his umbrella. Hope that I get released early tomorrow from class, say around 10.30am? Haha.
look out for updates in my blog

Hi guys
Has been weeks since I have post last post. Well, Life is still OK for me, just that I don't have a single idea on why am I so unhappy for the past few weeks even when im alone by myself. I won't write about why. Just recently I went to attend my Ah Jie, Pearl's church, WAC on Saturday and Sunday. Well, the enviroment there is way different from PPHBC. I don't really know how to describe, but it is just different. Made new friends from the church. Even though i been there once, I feel that there is a second time I will go back to visit WAC. But not to forget that I am still in PPHBC. As I told a friend from PPH this:"My flesh maybe at that church, but my spirit is with PPHBC." It's quite assuring enough because never have I had thinking of transferring church. Overall, it's good. My friends in WAC sort of invited me to their church camp. But I got to think over about it. So yup. To those reading this, enjoy. haha

Well, as some of you didn't notice, I have added a long time never use name to my name. Maximilliam. Some of my friends asked why I wanted this name. There is a reason for it. I have been called different names for the past few years. For those who know, good for you. For those who don't know, then continue guessing. HAHA. So you people can call me any of those 2 names. It's up to you. I won't force you. Today in church, someone have already called me by my 2nd name already. Was good. haha. So you have heard me already. From now on, my name for short is R.M.K. Call me either R.M, M.K or RMK.

My final week of holiday is finished and I will be reporting to campus on monday. Hoping that nothing bad will happen in class I guess. The final week of my holiday was a good one. Have been going to the west are to spot buses. Wednesday, I went to send my good friend, Victor off to Tekong from Pasir Ris Int. He will be going through BMT and his next 21 months of NS. Hope he can pull through the tough training. Thursday, meet up with my ex-schoolmate, Yvonne, at Jurong Point for dinner. Had dinner at Mac instead of Long John Silvers. Had a good chat with her. I am looking forward to our next meet up. Then on friday, woke up at 11. Went to Shenton Way to catch SBS912U on 162. Credits to KP and Malcolm for both providing the info and timing. Manage to catch the pic of the bus. Went to Boon Lay to catch cameos after going to JE. Then I had to rush to Woodlands for a BB camp Meeting. Being put in-charge of food and accomadation. Might be an uphill task to oversee the food for the camp and etc. Now Im still worried about what is going to happen the next few days and weeks. May God watchover whatever I am doing in any area.
I guess I have nothing else to write.
