memories....

out of sudden...i just want to read over something i had keep for a long time...cant help myself but to smile while reading all those letters...haha...those were the days...one of the most happiest moment in my life...though not for long but still a good memories..still remember how nervous i was back then but to read it now and see it childish...regrets??maybe a bit, not able to control the situatuion better..

still cant believe that i never threw that letters away...i know i should..but i think this memories is what make life more meaningful..looking back..i realised how i have grown, not just physically but mentally..but no matter what..im still the same guy anyone had known me for the past 21 yrs. still childish, playful, lazy, carefree...haha...wish could have some sort of reunion with all the person i met through out the years....but its impossible..most of them are busy with their life. they have their own things to do..and same goes to me. friendship just seem so fragile this days. once you left and embark on a new road of life, slowly but surely they disappear while you gain new friends. not saying all will disappear, there will be some that will stick with you eventhough taken different path.

well..maybe 4 yrs down the road i will have flashback on my poly days...or maybe sooner??haha...but still...though not in contact right now...i would like to say thanks to all my friends from kindergarden to primary school to secondary school to NYP to squadmate to all who had been friends with me...

thanx for the memories :)

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – NASA's soon-to-be-retired space shuttles are up for grabs.

The space agency said Wednesday it's looking for ideas on where and how best to display its space shuttles once they stop flying in a few years. It's put out a call to schools, science museums and "other appropriate organizations" that might be interested in showcasing one of the three remaining shuttles.

Beware: NASA estimates it will cost about $42 million to get each shuttle ready and get it where it needs to go, and the final tab could end up much more.

The estimate includes $6 million to ferry the spaceship atop a modified jumbo jet to the closest major airport. But the price could skyrocket depending on how far the display site is from the airport. Only indoor, climate-controlled displays will be considered.

"The orbiters will not be disassembled for transportation or storage," NASA insists in its nine-page request for information.

One space shuttle appears headed to the Smithsonian Institution's National Air and Space Museum in Washington. The remaining two would be placed in storage at Kennedy Space Center until their final homes are decided.

If a space shuttle is too pricey, NASA is offering some of its shuttle main engines for anywhere between $400,000 and $800,000, not counting shipping costs.

The space shuttles, so you know, will not come with any main engines.

NASA plans to retire Discovery, Atlantis and Endeavour by Sept. 30, 2010, in keeping with President George Bush's initiative calling for a return by astronauts to the moon by 2020. A transition team set up by President-elect Barack Obama is reviewing all the options, however, including the possibility of keeping the shuttles flying beyond 2010.

If that happens, then all space shuttle deals are off.
