K-boxing Session n Prata Supper at NUS Fong Seng

After attending and meeting Teresa and her family members at Bishan Junction 8 on last Saturday, I went window-shopping with some of the supporters of Teresa before going to meet The Changed Man and The Married Soldier for K-boxing.

The Changed Man arrived first and we had our dinner at KFC. Nursing a scalded tongue (the coffee at Haagen Daz was a bit too hot for me) and a coin-sized mouth ulcer (because I bit myself whilst munching popcorn during the Die Hard 4.0 movie), I had to eat a very very slow dinner before heading into the K-box.

K-boxing on Saturday nights is an expensive affair because of the rates but given the crazy schedules of the three of us, it's already a boon at we can even meet together once in a blue moon. Since The Married Soldier had not arrived, the two of us helped ourselves to the songs inside. Below are the songs picked for yesterday's K-boxing...

After K-boxing, it was already around 9pm so all three of us went to this place called Fong Seng near NUS for roti prata supper because it was said that the place was famous for it. I ordered a cheese prata and teh-tarik and supper was delicious. It was really crowded at night as the NUS students poured in by the dozens from the nearby campus, adding to the crowd of public already sitting there. Supper talk was a bit boring for me though because The Changed Man and The Married Soldier started talking about career changes and leadership and I was not really interested in the topic. When it was around 11.30pm, we left the place as both The Changed Man and myself have to work on the following day.

The Changed Man is a very ambitious person who wants to earn loads and loads of money as some director. The Married Soldier is going to resign from the army and go into some marketing work. Me? I just want to live my life contentedly and happily. The rat race? Not interested because ultimately, at our final hour, we will bring nothing with us but memories of whether we manage to live our lives. For me, it's not the quantity of material artefacts, it's the quality of life. It's sort of like an extension or variant from the below quote from the movie "Patch Adams"

"You treat a disease - you win or you lose. You treat a human being -
you'll win, no matter what the outcome is."
