Actually i intended to come home early today to catch some sleep, but i decided to pluck out some sleeping time, blogging about my new idol ok?

Other than Ms wee, my teacher-idol, i have found another new ou xiang. He's really talented, gifted, brave and also the most positive person i have ever met in real life. I think his achievements as a handicapped person who is paralysed waist down far exceeds most people. Despite his disability, he broke the Guinness World of Records by completing 7 marathons in 7 continents in 70 days, in a wheel chair, all in the name of charity.

Fortunately i decided not to skip his talk yesterday and attended it because it was truly inspirational. Just by watching the video clip he showed us, i already had goosebumps popping all over my hands because it was really touching. Seeing someone who has polio since a tender age of 2 completing marathons, achieving his goals really inspires. The fact that he still managed to complete his doctorate and becoming an official certified medical doctor despite being rejected by NUS made me respect him more. He even delivered twins!

Oh, i forgot to introduce my idol. He's Dr. William Tan. If it does sound familiar, it's because you read it in the Strait's Times. He appeared quite a few times there. He is so highly qualified that accompanying his name is 3 lines of credentials.

Today he came back down to school again to sell his poster. It's a motivational poster. And i thick-skinnedly ask to take a photo with him. Plus, i got his AUTOGRAPH on the poster! Haha, my ou xiang ok! But his silly fat assisstant made me quite embarrassed can. You see, the poster is $5, but i did not have small change, so i gave her $10. Then she asked me if i want my change back. ARGH, of course i want lah, $5 leh, can buy another poster can! So, i have to like act abit humble and admit lah. And i got back my $5. haha, sounds so cheap skate. People poor cannot is it.

So i took a WTF club photo. Erms, i mean William Tan Fan club photo.

The photo is seriously ugly because the lousy photographer did not adjust the flash properly and a big bright patch appeared at the top, which indirectly results in our face being dark and blurred. (i think she jealous only). After photoshopping that's all i can do, at least my face can be seen now ok. We're holding on to the posters anyway. I look so TOOT can, my hair like one side got bomb like that. Focus on my idol ok, dont care about me.

That's so much for my introduction of my new ou xiang.
