The Beginning

Hmm. I have probably completed every assignment that was given to me for the June holidays, except for the SGC Testimonial that we have to write which I just remembered. Damn. I can't even remember whether we have to send the forms via email or hand it in personally. Just smsed my teacher, heh. And his reply is..."Give me by first week". Whew. That's a relief. Glad to know I have just a little bit more time to work on it. (:

My father came back from Abu Dhabi yesterday. Somewhere in the UAE, close to Dubai. He was over there for some job consulting, to oversee the establishment of the special rescue forces over there I think. The captain over there gave him a parting gift, which he gave to me. It is this


Camera that I heard, costs about 300 dollars. Heh. I have no actually need/use for a camera, as such, I'm hoping I can persuade my father to keep it, or my sisters who can obviously make better use of it, to take it.

The death of Michael Jackson is one of the most shocking. He was such a popular icon, comparable even to Elvis Presley. Selling over 100 million albums for Thriller, it is the biggest number of sales for a single album, overshadowing it's closest competitor by more than half. The King of Pop, now joins people like Elvis Presley, Johnny cash and Bing Crosby, in the hall of legends, where they will forever be remembered. A sad way to go, and so untimely. I am deeply saddened by the sudden loss of him. His family...his children...his wife...my heart goes out to them.
