TODAY!! I HAD MY PPCDL PRACTICAL!
went to woodlands to take a cab to westcoast. forgot that its very hard to get a cab there. saw victor there. again. i see him everywhere la from sengkang to woodlands. wont be surprised if i see him at malaysia or afganistan man.
i was so disgusted. cus when the cab arrived, the driver had no idea how to go to westcoast until i showed him my map. okay nevermind, i was really late and wanted to save time and pay by nets. when i took out my card, he exclaimed and said his nets machine isnt working.. ?!?!???@@#!?@##??!!!!!!! paid cash, thanked him, and ran out. luckily the testers were a late. phew! right time for them to be irresponsible.
saw adrian there! he's my coursemate! he sat with my throughout the course in feb! he's from london and is married with a son and is extrememly adorable and lives at sentosa heh.
anyway, i was paired with this guy i got to know today, wilson. he's 27 and is a windsurfing instructor at PA. grrreat! he's gonna be my instructor with i learn windsurfing! we were tested on unberthing, manoeuvring, man overboard, and berthing. wilson went first and he did a real good job by helping me recall all my stuffs haha!
when it was my turn, i was so nervous that i forgot many things such as to check the hull, engine cooler etc. but i remembered the rest, that is, the red hand flares, HARTS, navigational lights, check petrol and stuffs. wilson succeeded in berthing at the second attempt but i managed to do both man overboard and berthing at first attempts!!! heh! drive around too much illegally must be! so we both got our own demerit points.
then had the oral exam. when it was my turn, i was asked the cardinal marks and right of ways. also, things to do and horn pattern to sound in restricted visibility. some questions were quite tough but he was so kind that he gave hints and gavve me chances. he asked how old i am, what school and if i can actually manage my time. i convinced him totally and he said i did very well for the practical and guessed that i drive illegally which i admitted doing so. haha! i told him i do sailing classes and in the end, I PASSED!!!
just have to do some admin then i'll receive the card which i think is very ugly now. whatever.
adrian left.. ): and i'll never get to see him ever again. he's one of the people who came and left. he's a nice man.. well, people do come and go. at least he kissed me left and right today :D the ang moh style yea so, get use to it. bye adrian! may our paths cross again someday!
oh and i met tiong jin out at sea he was doing kayaking classes there! since when he became an instructor here luh! didnt get to talk to him cus he came back to shore late. wei liang and i took a lift from wilson to amk and we went back. so wei liang is suppose to learn windsurfing with me now and our instructor's gonna be wilson! hahahah!!!
