____Of Torpedoes And Human Bombs
Firstly, a tribute to the picture. That person is me, caught by a state of the art high speed camera, in action la David Beckham.

Okay, it's an uncool shot because I was in jeans and polo T. And look at the horrid shoes I'm wearing that day! I hate SAF Brooks. The ball was very deflated, well it still is. But the fact is National Stadium will be torn down next year. And this is a still capture from the video of me. Kicking a ball. In National Stadium. On the field.
The stadium of memories of Fandi Ahmad scoring that wonder goal against Nottingham Forest. And of course, I will reminisce the same match when Stan Collymore delivered that piledriver past David Lee. Singapore won Tiger Cup on homeground and I was there with buddies Wilson and Bruce when Indra Sahdan smashed home the first goal of the night.
There were wonderful memories of SYF when I was sec 1. Many National Day evenings, and I even have the honour to serve my Industrial Attachment there. I remember my Dad bringing me to the place to watch Malaysia Cup matches. I remember the happy hustle and bustle of the occasions when he did so. My love for football was initiated here. This place is proof of my Dad's love for us.
Standing in the empty gallery will ignite many thoughts and memories. It is like feeling the legends that walked the ground, walking the ground all over again....

Went down to Toa Payoh Swimming Complex today. At the competition pool where I met more national athletes. This time there is big star Joscelyn Yeo. How cool. But my eyes were fixed on the water drop there - reminds me of the time when we sneaked into NTU pool at night.
Back in office, I chanced upon my colleague's website. Terraoutdoors is the company. It organises overseas trips such as trekking, diving, cycling. Suddenly, I'm reminded of the time when us, PTIs went to Kota Tinggi, jumping off the stone ledge and plunging into the coolness of the natural pool. www.terraoutdoors.com. Sounds like a good way for a getaway.
Mother Nature is beckoning to me. The call of the wild. The yearning to be free. I just want to be in awe of Mr Waterfall again...
