My Prediction of 2006 F1 driver lineups:
Ferrari>>> This yr's underperforming car really showed us who's good and who's not... Michael certainly still has the calibre to perform at the highest level, while Rubens looked good in the past bcos the car was good... My lineup for Ferrari in 2006: Michael Schumacher, Felipe Massa
Williams-Cosworth>>> Lacklustre this season, BMW have deserted the Williams team next yr, with the Grove outfit using Cosworth engines in 2006... BMW sponsored Nick Heidfeld is likely to leave the team too... My lineup for Williams-Cosworth in 2006: Mark Webber, Jenson Button
McLaren-Mercedes>>> Superb car with superb drivers, undoubtly the team to beat this yr, i expect this team to build on their success with the current crop of drivers... My lineup for McLaren-Mercedes in 2006: Kimi Raikkonen, Juan Pablo Montoya...
Renault>>> Another team tats done extremely well this yr, Alonso having one hand planted on the World Championship already... Although Fisichella had alot of bad luck this yr, and shld be granted one more chance to shine, but i would love to see the fastest-man-over-1-lap back with this team... My lineup for Renault in 2006: Fernando Alonso, Jarno Trulli
BAR-Honda>>> Lost valuable championship points after a couple of suspensions, the Brackley outfit will definitely make a comeback next yr, albeit without Jenson Button, though i think Sato has justified his presence in the team, he juz needs abit more luck than the past few seasons, My lineup for BAR-Honda in 2006: Takuma Sato, Christjian Albers
Sauber-BMW>>> Recently purchased by German giants BMW, i expect both drivers on their way out, especially Ferrari-supported Massa... Nick Heidfeld might follow BMW into this team, with the addition of one exciting young talent... My lineup for Sauber-BMW in 2006: Nick Heidfeld, Nico Rosberg
Red Bull-Ferrari>>> Extremely impressive performance by this team in their first season of F1, having Ferrari engines next yr shld boost their performances even more, i believe they alady have the talent in their team... My lineup for Red-Bull Ferrari in 2006: David Coulthard, Christian Klien
Toyota>>> A very much up-and-coming team, shld consider having drivers that could lead this team to greater heights next yr... My lineup for Toyota in 2006: Giancarlo Fisichella, Tiago Monteiro...
Jordan-Toyota>>> A struggling team, may need to look out of F1 to find drivers willing to accept the challenge of fighting the car for 70 laps week in week out, though potentially out-of-job drivers like Jacque Villeneuve, Ralf Schumacher and Rubens Barrichello may fancy themselves here... My lineup for Jordan-Toyota in 2006: Rubens Barrichello plus one unknown
Minardi-Cosworth>>> Always the team to join for promising drivers to shoecase their skills in F1, many brilliant drivers have "graduated" from Minardi, including a certain Fernando Alonso, i'll expect them to field 2 new talents next yr...

Everything is turning against me, nothing is going smoothly for me at all... After TSC rejected me, posted to PAD's slackest platoon 3 under LTA Clara, todae heard news platoon 3 gonna close shop and the personnel will join platoons 1 &2... WTF??? Am i really such a jinx??? I never get to enjoy to be at a place, it always gets worse and worse and worse!!!
And now, even finding ppl to play pool with me is becoming a tougher and tougher task... Juz wanna train my pool 2-3 times every week so tat i can attempt to play in a tournament, and still it cannot be done!!! I'll have to go find new opponents, go ard all the pool joints and play loser punch...
Why do i have such a "hard" life? After nursing all the pain suffered for the past 2 yrs, all i wan is juz a pretty good NS life, serve and fuck off after 2 yrs... And all i wan is juz to enjoy my pool, participate in a few tournaments to see how good i am, and see if i have any future in professional pool...
Sigh... Finally i understand the phrase "It never rains but pours"
Oh and did i mention i ran 14km in 3 days?

Todae run 7km for AHM training, wah damn shagged lei... Run until my legs become jelly liddat liao, actually didn't wanna push but RSM cycling behind so gotta "pia", clocked a time of 47min25sec, reasonably happy with tat...
These 2 days started actual work and interaction with all the platoon 3 guys, they're a bunch of really nice ppl, i can sense that we are the most cohesive platoon among all at PAD, so hopefully i'll have a nice time working with them...
Tmrl will be my IPPT le, confirm fail one la but i hope to clock under 14min for my 2.4km, plus pass sit-ups and shuttle run... I'll train slowly and hopefully one fine day, i pass my first physical examination in my life...
PS: I have never ever passed a single NAPFA or IPPT... lol!!!

Very lousy weekend, played pool on friday nite then soccer on sat morning, tats it!!! Alvin flew off to kaoshiung yesterday nite, jk kena extra again booked in this morning... The rest not on so this weekend basically rot at home...
Juz finished watching a very exciting German Grand Prix, Alonso won... Not thru his own efforts, but bcos Raikkonen retired with a 15-second lead... Also saw the Ferraris crumbling in the latter stages of the race, Schumacher dropping from 2nd place all the way to fifth... very happy to see them struggling, though my Williams had another lacklustre performance...
EPL starting again very soon, hoping to make extra bucks by betting on matches... Wish me luck!

This week spent quite alot of money, mostly on pool... I think its worth it, for me to sharpen my skills, though i still have a long way to go, i believe i can compete in professional pool, juz have to brush up certain pots and my positional play, plus having abit more luck than wad i had for the past month...
Dunno why i have been so down down down on luck recently, i'm starting to suspect there's something "dirty" disturbing me... wad shld i do???

Finally received my posting today, its the most ideal one, joining TYS at Technical Support Centre(TSC)... Was so elated to hear the sentence "You're going to TSC" from the mouth of OIC, but i was in for a rude shock later...
The guy tat was posted to Nee Soon complained it was too far from his Eunos place, bcos Nee Soon needed someone wif A level qualifications, i was the one shortlisted to take my frenz place there... After debating with OIC, i saved myself and the guy after me in the nominal roll kena Nee Soon, this guy stays in Kovan...
Well i feel sad for him, cos honestly its oso very far, but one's always gotta save himself first rite??? So sorry man... I'm never gonna give up the place in TSC, which is so near my hse in Seletar Camp...

Well another weekend is ending soon, had a pretty ok week as usual... Completing my course on Monday, was suppose to know my posting on friday but they delayed it... I hate this suspense, really hope to be posted to TSC, but not many places are available... Had a dream last night tat i was posted to PLAD, would it come true??? (Gosh i dun wanna go tat far!!!)
Yesterday received a challenge to play pool, against a so-called rival but i dun have the "di yi" for him la... But still to lose in front of the gers is sia suay, so i got alvin and kl to practise wif me 1 hr beforehand... Played really bad, lost all confidence for the coming match-up... In the end told Nelson i've gotta go, but he insisted i play a game wif kelvin, so i did... and won. Kelvin then got reinforcements, got his fren called Samuel to play me, and i beat him too... It was great to win 2 games in a row with all the gers watching... After the gers left i lost a game to Samuel, but hey... nobody saw it!!! Haha...
After tat went shopping for soccer boots, bought a blue and silver Total90 for 65 bucks, quite heart-pain but i hope it pays off by lasting longing than my Umbro, which is also blue and silver!!! Guess its due to my attraction to the WilliamsF1 team... Then went to Golden Mile to play some more pool, after tat we had dinner at Suntec... We went to Sizzler's, at first i was quite apprehensive, cos very ex... But after finding out got free flow salad, soup and ice cream, i realised it was very worth it indeed... Had a very sumptous meal, very very satisfied...
This morning played soccer, dunno why i dun find it as fun as before... Had 1 assist, tats all for my contribution... Sigh, i'm losing my touch...

It was a bad bad race for Williams yesterday, they finished 12th and 14th, without showing any promise or at least any efforts to push hard... Watching this kind of performance is really very frustrating, i felt like throwing Mark Webber out of the car and getting in myself... I'll push all the way, even way beyond the limits of the car, tats me... the wild and aggressive style of my idol Juan Pablo Montoya
Things haven been going smoothly for me recently, seems as if the whole world has ganged up against me, why???

Went to watch initial D last nite, Some ppl think its a lousy movie, but i think it was great... Perhaps it was the racing theme i was attracted to, racing is in my nature, I'm a speed demon, someone who pursues high speed for thrills...
This morning played bball, not fun at all, feeling picked on... Everytime we concede i get blamed, its like i'm suppose to keep 2-3 guys at bay, and still expected to grasp the rebound... Sigh, think i wun be playing bball for quite a while...
French Grand Prix starting in an hr's time, hopefully StarSports dun do anything funni, telecast Wimbledon instead of the race, otherwise my day is really spoiled...

P.S. This few days KL seem to be troubled, wad happened???
