It's Xmas eve.
Hmm.. let's see wad happened since the 4th.. eve of my bday. Shit.. i cant rmb le.. Let me recap............
Ok.. on the 2th, sat.. I went to East Coast early in the morning wif shunfa weichin and dikai. Went there to canoe. Haha! Den after tt, met up wif kaisiang, nigel, maode and hongjie and we went to United Square for lunch at Vienna International buffet! The food there is quite good.. Lots of desserts and cocktails.

At night, picked jun bit and vin up and we wanted to get to Elizabeth Hotel to catch the Arsenal game. However, i was not sure where it is and ended up in Holland Village. So we went to Brekos AGAIN to catch the game. Haha! So this is my sat.

On the 3rd, Sun.. morning kicked as usual. After tt i drove to China Town for the FIRST time.. haha.. which means i gt lost a little. Went there to party world with my vocal classmates. And i learnt new things. =D. In the evening, i went to Marina's kbox with my family.. Had the buffet there. And sang again.. Haha! And my throat was really bad at night. Cuz i was already sick in the first place. And so my whole monday was spent resting at home and drinking lots and lots of water. Cuz i need my voice on tues. Why? Haha!

Yup.. so on tues.. met up wif louiza for lunch at this cafe arcadia thing at tam cent cc. And in the evening, went to parkway to pick hung and lyn up b4 going to Cineleisure for a kboxing session. Sang from about 7 till 1am. Not bad la.. quite nice. Haha! Oh.. tues' my bday too. And bit and jun bought me a cake. While i gt hung a sunflower for her bday 6 days before. I have also come to the conclusion tt jun has sucky photography skills. This is all of us.
And this photo with lyn is one tt i like. Haha!



















And on wed.. nth much.. sent stuff back to camp.. booked chalet.. nth la..

And after my bday.. the 2 wkends tt followed it were torrid cuz i had guard duty on Sunday!! Haizzz.. And i had an exercise too.. But i gt to sit on a chinook! haha! A once in a life time experience u know?

However, on the 15th, Friday. I went to the zoo wif Louiza. Haha! Pretty much the same la.. only tt i noticed where i was walking now. Previously i never noticed where i was walking at all.. and juz followed others. There were some really cute stuff. Haha! No vin.. the cow is ugly.



These 3 turned their butts on me!! basket.....














The Lion..

And this red-ass baboon .. seem to have piles la!

And lastly, us:

Never posted so many pics up in a long time! haha! After this xmas period.. i would have more! Cant wait! I'm a camera-friendly kinda guy =D

In a few minutes, it'll be my birthday. I'll be turning 19. My last -teen birthday. I dun wan to be twenty.. cuz i wan to remain young. There'll be more things for us to worry about as we grow older! Haizzz...

However, i want to turn 20 soon. Cuz of the stupid army. Once i'm twenty, it'll mean 2 mths and 3 days to ORD-ing. And tt means it's 1 yr 2mths 3 days and a few minutes till my ORD date. Seems soooo far. I have been in the stupid army for 8 mths already and i can say i've learnt shit! I've not changed both physically and mentally AT ALL. Well, maybe i'm juz fitter.....

But i cant deny the fact that i've made quite a few gd friends in the army. That's the only plus point in these 8 mths.

Hmm.. i said sth about this yr being very monotone for me cuz of army. Guess wad.. i'm right. Juz look at the no of posts i put up ever since enlistment. Explains everything. I think the total number in 8 mths is equivalent to the no in a mth during JC days.

Let's see wad i want for my birthday this yr..

Realistically, i hope for.....

15 greetings.. i hope i can reach tt no. Of course i'm not counting the ppl i see everyday like my family and army ppl..

3 cards and gifts? Haha! Pathetic huh.. and similarly, i'm not counting the ppl i see everyday like my family and army ppl..

myself to be able to do well in my singing class. Haha! I pay like about 30% of my monthly pay to learn it monthly k...

myself to be able to juz play the keyboard.. Simple chords tt allow me to sing along and correct my bad pitching would do.. And yes.. i'm paying 60 a mth for this one..

a holiday to Melbourne, Aus.. with either the whole grp of sec sch friends =), or a gf, if i have one. haha! And no, i'm not hoping for want in this list.

Tuition jobs.. so tt tgt wif my allowance, pay, subsidies, etc.. my input would be at least $1200 a month. I need money. Why i need money for? I dunno.. i juz need it. See.. this is wad i mean about getting older.. I'm starting to worry about my FAR future.. starting a family and stuff..

Army ppl to leave me alone and not bother me. The whole hierarchy thing is getting on my nerves. And i get irritated easily..

I've lost the mood to blog now.. haha.. shall contd some other time la..

I dunno wad time it is now.. that explains how bored, and tired i am now. Am sick on my leave day!!! How sad can it be??!! Luckily i dun have any plans today and i can juz rest at home. Although it doesnt make sense for me to be resting at home on my leave day, which is so rare. I find tt ppl who take leave juz to sleep at home really stupid. Haha..
Anyway, i have been out the whole of sat and sun.. so things are quite ok la

Fisherman Village, Pasir Ris Park, Tampines Mall, East Point, Changi Airport, Bugis, Plaza Singapura, Suntec City, Esplanade Park, Ice World, Mount Faber, Sentosa, Vivo City, Singapore Indoor Stadium, Changi Village, Great World City, Toa Payoh Central, Ang Mo Kio Central,

plus Stonegrill, My Secret Garden, Hark Cafe, Old Airport Food Centre, and having sat in 4 of the 5 times i rented a car.

Wad's next? Upcoming's GV Max and Vivo, Prawning at Pasir Ris Town Park, and the Singapore Zoological Gardens.. Haha!!

Where else is there really left? Haha! Pls dun tell me Jurong pt, causeway pt........ BUT, there's the Ang Mo Kio new shopping centre, and out IKEA, Courts and Giant.

I think ppl lose contact wif their friends as they grow older because of the lack of time to spend tgt, and cuz of shifting of houses. I think moving houses would distance one from his friends. Like for eg.. everyone stays in pasir ris area and we can meet up so regularly. But when one moves away, things become different. Haizz..

And really.. as we grow older, there are many things to think of. Like now.. i'm still young.. But i've to think of lots of stuff le. Like money.. haha.. I'm concerned that i'm not saving enough. Now is still ok, but if a car really comes in in dec, den it'll be really tough for me. Fuel plus my vocal and keyboard courses. Not enough cash to keep me going. Tuition pls! I need tuition students..

Btw, i think penny, jin sha and zhuo wen xuan are vv pretty singers.. haha!

I'll be going back to camp soon.. that's like so sad.

Anyway, with that aside, halloween is 2 days away.. i think. Not that i celebrate or have ever thought much about it in my 18 yrs around. This is the first yr i gave some thought to it.. I think it's because i need some new forms of entertainment in my life. I think celebrating, or rather doing stupid things with friends during halloween is fun. Haha! But that can only happen in school.. AHHH.. i cant wait for NUS life!

There are some things i'm looking forward to now. The final thing that i have in mind is the end of the year. Dun ask me why.. i'm juz looking forward to the end of the yr. To a start of a BRAND NEW year. Haha.. But b4 tt on 31/12/06, i'm looking forward to 24/11, when i'll be going to Msia with my family to shop.. It's a 3D2N thing. That's in a month's time. After that in about slightly more than a week's time, it's my birthday. I dunno wad to expect though. I dun expect anything.. except for stuff i plan for MYSELF, which i really, really sad. And lastly, Christmas. I cant wait for the gatherings that would follow although nth has been done yet. I'm always putting the gathering planning off till the next week cuz i'm tired. Nvm.. when my CO going to Wallaby next week, i'll have lots of time to think about this.

Now on the gatherings, it seems bbqs and chalets are getting outdated. Haha.. maybe not so yet la. But as we grow older, these stuff would seem a little outdated. I mean ppl would get sian of these. I need to think of new stuff. WAD? i dunno yet.. although i know times like halloween is easy cuz lots of places have activities organized. I even took the newspaper cutting. I need new ideas la! But i cant have fresh ideas if i dun have enough sleep. I need like 5 days of lazing at home to get back my freshness and to have wonderful ideas. Haha! Not that i'm known for my ideas.

That's about all i'm bitching about now. And lastly, i want to say this. WHY dont we have any common gd friends between us!?!?!?!??!

My first week working with my CO. Overall, fine.. considering that i'm not doing stuff most of the time. BUT, he goes home late.. means i go home late... Today, he left at 9!! But he sent me home la, and we went for dinner with 24 SA CO. Haha! Seems like i'm some big shot to eat with 2 COs. I think he's a gd CO. From the conversation we had.. i think, and hope so. =)

I think time is too short. Haha! I want to stay at home and yet go out during the weekends.

How can i do tt? Staying at home cuz i'm tired and i juz want to laze at home.. but i also want to go out to look at the world. haizzz

Anyway, i want to plan a xmas gathering for my BMT ppl, AOC ppl, mjc ppl, and hsc ppl.. haha.. how do i fit it it? or shld i say, how do i find so many days to do it?

I have no direction in life as now. I need to find it.

Boring life for the past 6 weeks as usual.. I'm now 23SA CO's PA though.. That's all i want to rmb in 10 yrs time..

Anyway, this wkend has been really packed.

Friday was half day off for me.. So in the evening, i went wif shunfa dikai caleb and kaisiang to Marina for bbq steamboat! Ate quite a lot.. haha! After that, we went to play pool. And everything ended after i sent them back home and i reached home at 2am.

Today.. Morning was soccer, followed by parkway wif bit and jun, den tuition, den went out with louiza.. Packed huh.. Me and louiza went to vivocity to look around. Supposed to catch The Departed, but the traffic jam but the LARGE number of ppl there changed our plans. We walked around the gigantic place b4 taking a train down to Douby Ghout and went to Hark Music Cafe/Bar. =D. It's opp Paradiz Centre. We had our dinner there and hung around. There were many ppl singing live at the cafe. So, we enjoyed most of the songs.. Some were really bad la.. but no one laughed or gave bad comments, which is a gd thing. We left the place at 11 and return to Vivocity to collect my car and i sent her home. I reached home at about 0030.

Next is sun. Lunch wif tingyi and jeremy, followed by family day. Packed huh..

That's why i'm so tired. My eyes are really tired. I can fall asleep anytime now!

Gd night....

It's been a long while huh... about a month. I lead a very boring life tt's y there seem to be nth to blog about.

A quick update on my life. I'm now a FOAO of a brigade. Currently at 23SA's S3 office doing stupid clerical and admin work. I spend 10 hrs in the office daily and only 1 hr is used to do stuff. A total was te of my life. Army is therefore a time waster.

With army out, i have a dream to blog about now. But i had it 3 or 4 nights ago.. so it's not exactly fresh. I was juz driving along a road going to some show. There were 4 ppl in my car.. i can only rmb lyn and louiza inside. The other 2 were guys and i cant rmb them. Anyway, i was juz driving when suddenly louiza jumped out and started running into a building and going up the escalator. Lyn decided to chase her and i followed soon after. After a loooon run and search, me and lyn lost louiza. I was like vvvvvv scared and worried. Dunno y.. haha.. So i searched and searched and searched b4 going back home. At my door, i saw my mum and bro in trouble. And some guy appeared and told me that louiza's wif him. We talked a lil b4 he brought a vv shagged louiza in. I woke up after tt. Another weird dream..

I have d/led the whole of Jay's new album. Even b4 its release! Haha! I feel such a pirate.. But his songs are not bad. He's vv much clearer in his words this album.

Rented a car for the 4th time this wkend. I feel more comfortable drving now. Really comfortable. The first time i drove in camp too. Haha! I brought my stuff in and out of camp. Since i have a car, i might as well use it to transport my clothes etc. Anyway, i went to watch Kids Central Live! Haha!! Yup.. as childish and stupid it may sound. Went to watch it with louiza. Felt really out of place at the start. Was totally pai seh. But until we saw the singapore idol ppl there, den it seem a little not TT kiddy. I think this car rental is pretty worth it too cuz i know quite a few places now. I learnt a lot of new places this wkend.. like sembawang park wif it's nice place to eat =).

I lead a boring life in army. I cant wait to ORD. I read the papers daily. Even the classified ads. I feel most comfortable and entertained when i go out wif louiza. Haha.. cuz the guys would say stupid stuff and make me paranoid. Exaggerated, but the idea's there. Nth else.

2 more wks till the end of my course. Finally! After these 2 wks, i would be a "combat clerk" Hopefully i'll at least get to book out as and when i like. Cuz if that's the case, i can resume my hapkido, and go regularly for my music lessons. And also earn much needed extra cash through tuition. I need money! My input is the same as my output.. this is no good! I need to save. 1.5yrs to start saving money!

I rented a car this wkend. So this means my sat was packed. Yes.. packed! 0730 i collected the car, 0900 i reached NUS to meet tingyi and look at her hostel room. It seems really cosy and comfortable. The paint colours are soothing! After that went for breakfast and sent her to tuition at toa payoh. At about 1200, i picked ray followed by vin and jun up before going to bugis to have lunch at V8 cafe. Ray suggested that place.. and wif my safra card, i gt a 15% discount. The fish and chips was a lot la.. i cuoldnt finish it. Haha.. Den after tt sent them to places b4 going to Whitesands to get some last minute stuff. After tt i went home to change.

About 1730, i went over to louiza's place to pick her up. Celebrated her bday. First we went to My Secret Garden. It's a restaurant which has picked up good ratings and comments.. somewhere around bugis area again. The ambience and food was good! Shared the soup and even wif half the portion, both of us were already quite full b4 anything came. Den i ate escargot for the first time (tasted like any shell fish la..), shared this too. After tt i had cod fish and she had ox tail. Both were quite good. And at the end, we ordered some triple choc dessert which was very chocolately!! haha! And some mascarpone chesse wif strawberry and some syrup dessert, which was good too. The lucky thing is that both the desserts' taste did not clash. Both had a unique taste and din cover the other up. After that we wanted to go to One Fullerton to catch the fireworks, but the crowd put bothof us off. So, we went to Marina South to watch it. Watched the display in the car and took photos of it. Haha! But some did not turn out well la.. and a lot looked like explosions. When it ended, we plan to get to Night Safari, but once again, the queue was bad. So after 40mins of queuing up, we managed to get on the ECP which has 3 accidents! Changed plan to get to Changi Airport. Hung around there watching planes, taking the sky train, saw the budget terminal etc.. =) Sent her home at about 0030 and that's the end of sat. Oh ya.. both of us like a particular type of car --- metallic blue mazda sports-look-a-like haha!

Yst celebrated jun's bday at kbox wif loo, lyn hung..
Anyway, I've discovered why window shopping is relaxing. I spent about 1hr 30min hanging around parkway area.. Juz walking around very very slowly and looking at stuffs.. haha! Surprisingly, it was very relaxing...

Gt a car for this wkend again today. Tell u was happened today. I mounted a kerb wif vin loo jun and smx in it. Haha! That's not all! I punctured my tyre on the ECP on my way home. I was like so stunned for a min or so.. Din know wad to do. Eventually i explored the tools for tyre changing and eventually managed to change the tyre. Gt help from some guy cycling.. prob on his way home after buying some stuff. Yea.. so managed to change the tyre and gt home. But tmr i muz go SPC and do sth to the damaged tyre.. Haizzz... I'm now scared of my own driving la! Haha!

Anyway today had soccer in the morning. Den after tt went to marina (AGAIN!!) wif nicholas chiaheng zhihao and zhiwei. Ate and den watched superman. Was a rather gd show.. nice start and nice ending. Although the middle part was a little boring la..

Tmr going out wif boonrui peirui jos and huili.. dunno the whole plans yet though..

I think my temper is getting worse now. I'm getting a little more hot-tempered now.. Is it because i have not enough sleep in camp? Or is it juz me? Haizzz.. at AI when we cant sleep in the afternoon.. i hate it! I need enough sleep otherwise i would be so not myself..

1st week at AI is ok la.. nth physically vv tough so far. Juz mentally tough.. Imagine spending 0800 to 1800 in the lecture room listening to lectures which only 10% make sense to you! And u cant sleep cuz u would get punished if u do so.. This is so shitty la!

Anyway, i rented a car for the weekend. $130 for 2 days. Sounds fine right.. yup.. It's gd! I'm happy and satisfied about the usage of my car and the price.

I picked the car up on Fri, and den drove 2 of my army friends back home. I had to go around in circles cuz i dunno the area well. After tt drove a car alone for the first time. Excited and Nervous!! Haha! A lot of lane changing problems loh.. need experience la.. and also ppl keep on either turning on their high beam or horning me.

Den today.. 1030 i went to pick jun up, den followed by loo. And den drove aroudn bugis on a wild horse chase to find bit. EVENTUALLY, after a LOOOOOONG drive and U-turning, we ended up at Tiong Bahru Market and Food Centre for lunch. Which was not bad! My parking is also not bad.. More practice though. After tt we went to Peninsular Plaze and Funan. Drove there and had a little bit of problem finding the place as usual. After tt at about 1530 i sent bit loo and jun home respectively. Once i gt to bit's hse.. i suddenly have confidence in my own driving. I think it is cuz i know the road back. From den on i drove quite fast.. And after sending jun home i rushed to pick louiza up at her block. Den after tt rushed to Toa Payoh to catch X-men3 using the 2 free movie passes i had. It was fast cuz i know the way to Toa Payoh. After tt we went a LOOOONG way b4 reaching Great World City. including going around in circles 3 times!! Haha! Bought Heng Xiang Wife Biscuit stuff and she gt her cheese den went to AMK for a late dinner at about 2130. Took a while cuz i wasnt really sure.. only had a rough idea. Oh ya! When i was at Great World parking.. i almost hit the car beside me and they had to horn at me continuously! Haha! Experience la.. and i'm a P-Plate driver!

After AMK den sent her home. Had a little problem locating the exact way, but still eventually reached her hse at 2245. After tt i drove home. So in short, i spend the whole day in the car driving. And my right foot is aching! Dunno y also.. i think drive too long and so it strained my foot.

Today in the car and the walk around.. really vv comfortable. No stress anything anymore. This is good.. cuz it's vv vv natural! Now it's natural both online and in person. Moved on already maybe? =).

I juz realised.. it's18 June now. Almost 7 months since the end of the As. I dunno how to describe these 7 months.. it has been a long yet fast 7 months. The 7 months past by so fast.. it seemed like nth much happened. Yet, when i think through.. a lot happened these 7 months. Really a lot.... I dun wan to go saying everything tt happened cuz i've said it many times before. The last 2 months in BMT was very very fast too. I wanted it to be fast cuz i din like Tekong and wanted my stint there to end as soon as possible. Now tt it has ended, the overall picture seems vv fast-forward.

7 months of school life would mean i learn a lot in class. 7 months of no school.. i could either choose to juz stay at home or to learn about stuff i always wanted to and about life.. Which i'm glad i did.

Tmr's my first day at the Arty Institute.. hope all goes well..

I want to have a particular feeling now. The feeling when you watch a very very touching love story on tv.. haha......

I want to have a particular feeling now. The feeling when you watch a very very touching love story on tv.. haha......

I passed my driving test today!! This means i can drive on the road now!!! haha! And i gt posted to Arty Institute! Dunno wad tt is though..

No blog mood these days leh.. maybe cuz i've packed myself too much and am too tired and also at the same time, i've lived happily. haha!

I juz completed a HK serial.. Ren Sheng Ma Xi Tuan. And while watching it i was reminded to the show Under the Canopy of Love. Cuz the trailer for UTCOL keep on repeating in the earlier tracks of the cd. I have to say.. of ALL the series i watched, UTCOL is the best! Simple love story, but the acting skills and the actors. The 2 leads are damn gd looking la! Haha!

End of my 5th day break. Left wif 5 more days loh.. Sian.. haha. But ok la.. cuz after my POP, on Thurs i had driving and hapkido. Fri i had vocals. These 2 days i had to stay at home cuz i took MC for 24km route march. I'm REALLY sick ok! Den Sat went to eat at Paris wif my platoon ppl. Sun family day. And today soccer. So i went out practically everyday. And i would continue doing so until fri at least. Cuz i have no plans for this coming weekend for now.. And because of my busy schedule, i have been sleeping slightly less than how much i slept in Tekong. I cant rmb when i gt 7hrs of uninterrupted sleep! Haha! I tend to wake up early now.. cuz i'm used to the Tekong timing la.. I hope to have a loooooong sleep.. at least one. Sleep so long such that when i wake up, i feel so tired. Haha!

POP-ed.. I am now a private. And because i am a private, i get to keep my hair such that there IS hair on my head.

I'm having my 10 days break now.. And i have almost everyday more or less planned out. I would be going out everyday! Driving.. hapkido.. singing.. plus soccer, shopping, kboxing, eating and hanging out. Muz spend the 10days wisely. BUT i would be spending a lot of money! That muz stop. Muz spend less on food cuz i want to shop la.. and shopping takes up money.

I'm happy to leave Tekong. The 3days i am out of tekong, i sweated very very little. The feeling on mainland is good. I dun like th regimental military life.. but den again who does.

Not in a blogging mood now though.. So shall end here..

I'm back once again.

Had SOC half run down, whereby we ran 300m, did everything, followed by 350m. And den BCCT 5 where we did combos. Now, why am i not tired? Because yst i slept for 11hrs! Haha! The day b4 i slept at 2230, and woke up at 0530 for breakfast. After breakfast, i went back to sleep from 0630 to 1030. It's 11hrs!! Why are some others tired? Cuz instead of sleeping, these goons decided to fold their uniform as though there's a stand-by bed. Time wasters! Knowing that the nxt day is bookout day, u shld have lots of rest so u dun have to sleep at home and waste time!

Anyway, i watched Champs League game on wed nite and gt caught. Haha! Dunno wad's the punishment yet la.. but there were others wif me too..

Now NUS...... I've been accepted!! Into Computing. Though not into Science, but there's still Computational Biology available. I really want to get into that course. Dunno how things work out but anyhow, there're still 2 more years......

2.5more weeks, and that's the end of BMT. I would definitely miss those talk-cock-buddies in my platoon. haha! ppl like csm and chia heng. Talk cock kings! With me that is.. haha!

Oh well.. today came out, and went wif louiza to east pt, and i ate some waffle thingy wif ice-cream. Passable la.. but i've had better ones! The rum and raisin isnt nice loh.. wasted! In like 25 more hrs, i would be at the bus interchange... haizz... but since time flies now, it would fly in 2.5wks. Cant wait for my 10day break. Havent really planned but sort of gt things in mind.. poly ppl having sch.. that's the down pt la.. but still there're others around..

Long long time not blogging.. cuz i had field camp and only came back on thurs. Den every night want to blog, but felt too tired to do so. I guess this is the only time la..

I think blogging about BMT is shit.. rather boring.. haha.. so no blogging about bmt..

Since i came back, fri morn soccer, afternoon kbox. Den sat day time went out to orchard, night time wif family. Sun morn soccer. And now here.. later booking in. I think i'm spending too little time resting.. and i have been gonig out too often. I should juz stay at home, sleep, watch tv and use the com. Maybe i shld do tt nxt week.. haha..

Ppl change when they go to NS not cuz of the tough and regimental training, but cuz of wad we lack.. Like lack of life of this and that. Den when they come out, they treasure all the little things more.. At least this is wad i feel. But 5weeks isnt going to change much... 3.5more weeks to POP and no more Tekong. I'm still thinking whether to get to command sch or not.. I want to be slack, yet i want rank. Look better in Resumes nxt time.. Haha..

I muz slowly plan wad i want to do during my 10days POP break. There are lots.. but juz cant piece them properly.. Still have 3.5more weeks.. so yea. And in my 1yr 10mths of NSF life, i want to learn more stuff! I gt driving, hapkido, and vocal lessons le. Wad's lacking or wad i want to learn somemore? I also muz think of it..

Really tired la.. so cant type more properly.. soon.. soon i hope i can type a really long entry...

2 weeks since i last updated? BMT la.. last week booked out for one night only.. so a bit tired. This week i have 2 nights cuz of May Day! That's y i'm blogging now.

I have been consistently keeping a journal while in camp.. but i dun feel like typing all those shit out now. Let me juz start wif Thurs..

On Thurs. had Range. Went to the rifle range from 8am until 2am. Like wad de hell right?! But they brought a TV and a DVD PLAYER there.. haha! BMT?! Yea.. wif a whole list of movies... I think they played a total of 6 movies throughout the time there. Taxi.. MI.. scooby.. etc. Wif a small stall behind us selling tidbits. BMT?! Haha! This is life! Had our meals there, snacked, movies.. and OCCASSIONAL trips to shoot a few rounds of magazines. That's it. But when we gt back we were damn tired. Next day still had to wake up at 0530 loh..

Now Fri.. I reported sick. So din go to range. This means i have to redo range someday. But tt's not impt. I slept throughout the day in my bunk! =D. Woke up to eat, and then went back to sleep again. I thought i had a lot a lot of sleep. But i turned out to be sleepy still the next day. haizz.. i'm like a pig. My bunk mates say i have sleeping disorder.. i sleep too much. Too much? Nah.. juz trying to get my daily 9hrs.. haha!

Sat.. i;m out! Since i gt out, my schedule has been packed. And i'm so happy!! haha!

Sat i reached home at about 530pm.. den went out for dinner wif my family as usual. Den sun morn kicked ball wif the Falcon Pl 4 ppl, followed by lunch at my grandmum's place, and den met up wif jun vin bit loo and ray to go to Settlers Cafe. Played Citadel and Dragon's Den or sth like tt. That place is ok la.. can go back there.. But like wad vin said.. eat first and juz go there for the board games. I even gt the membership card.. for free la! I want to try the Haunted hse game louiza recommended, and almost every table were asking for it.. the betrayal sth sth..

Tmr booking back in in the evening.. but the day most prob going out wif louiza..

BMT is shit la.. like chalet loh.. haha! When i'm free and ready to type the whole chunk of jornal out here den u ppl would know about my life in there.. haha..

It's only 7.5 wks more.. or 54 days until i POP. Hmm.. 54.. tt no sounds like the no of days to WC2006! Haha! Ok, from 54 days, i take away about 14, which leaves 40. Why 14? Cuz of sat sun and PHs.. more or less 14. That leaves 40. So it's a month and 10 days of life in Pulau Tekong b4 i POP. Whyi want BMT to end faster? Not cuz if the training, ppl, food etc.. but cuz of one vv simple 4 letter word. HAIR. I want my hair back. I want my hair!!

My vocal course ppl juz updated me.. tt they're organizing a karaoke session! So looking forward to tt. Haha! Cuz we're all trained in the basics of singing.. whistles.. haha!

090406 2245

As i am writing this, i am hiding under my blanket with a torch. Cuz it's lights out. I still awnt to write cuz i gt things to say.

The biggest impact of my life.. and BMT happened today. Haircut!! I would avoid mirrors and cams as much as possible! So different from when i have hair! The feel is soo different too! No more swinging back of fringe! The weight is no longer there! After the haircut, i never looked at the mirror. Until we had to be at attention in front of a glass panel where i saw my silhouette . At tt pt i felt like crying. Wo zhe me jian ren?!

Throughout the years, my outlook appearance plated a vv large part in my confidence! Say i wear big tees and shorts to orchard.. i wun have confidence either. Same as with my hair! I am like so saddened la! How am i going to face ppl?

Anyway today was a rather fine day. 10 Combact PT drills in the morning with lots of pushups and then we practically sat the whole day. Orientation still i guess..

Ppl say one loses weight in the army? Bullshit! If i ate everything they gave, i wud definitely gain weight! Sooo much carbos la! And i have been wasting food today. =D. Haha! But i dunno how others view me. Cuz i feel stared and diao-ed at whenever i waste food. Like breakfast. i wasted a slice of bread, lunch i wasted 2/3 of my rice, and dinner i wasted 1/2 of the rice. SO much food loh! And even night snack also which i decided to skip today.

I wonder how tmr will be. Going to the range to see the firing.

I am soo looking forward to Thurs when i can book out la! I miss the life outside already.

What i want to do on Fri? Ask louiza out to ship for a cap? haha!! But i'd only ask on thues night cuz it's of least priority. Sms-ed the whole of last night la! The only entertainment I CAN PROVIDE in there (winks at louiza, if u're reading.. haha!)

For the last 10min or so.. i have been feeling my head. And i am depressed! Today esp when i knocked into the cupboard juz now. Usually my hair would warn me before i touch it. And even if i knocked it, my hair would reduce the pain!

I'm not used to not tilting my head against the direction of the win direction to avoid messing my hair up!

I'm not used to scratching my head and feeling skin and also the hair pricking my head. Without hair, i cannot act cute!! Haha! Cannot look pitiful.. kelian.. haha! I feel so gay now.

I'm depressed cuz i wan HAIR!

100406 0635

I'm supposed to be preparing my stuff now.. but ithink i've gt them prepared.. at least for wad i need later.

I'm on the verge of breaking down already. On 2 occasions.. one, when i look at my old photos wth the nice smile, and hair, haha.. and two, during meal times. They give so much food la! I'm afraid of putting on weight! Call me gay or wadsoever but not having hair is already a big dent in my confidence. Putting on weight would totally crush my confidence! Without confidence, i would go back to the sec 1,2 days.. i think i need to talk to someone about this. I dun wan to break down! Luckily I have this diary to bitch on and also in 3 days time, on thurs eve, i would book out. I think to me sleeping when booking out if of the least priority. In fact, i think socialising and letting out air is utmost priority.

Now i have no idea wad to do. Everyone seems so busy packing and arranging their stuff.. except me! I'm lost la.. though i still smile and talk and laugh to ppl aroudn me, i still dun really know their names yet.

And i muz say again. i feel vv depressed when i see photos of my old self. I think i would never accept my hairstyle now. Even putting on my helmet hurts my scalp!

Oh ya.. this morning i felt so lost! WHen i woke up, rushed through my chores, and came out of the toilet, it's time to fall in and i haven't gotten ready yet! I put on myshoes.. and luckily there's Richard who helped me pack my cupboard. Otherwise i wud take longer. BUT! On my way down, i realised i forgot to change my shirt and i have to rush back up! The worse thing is tt i gt to the wrong room on the wrong floow! I felt really lost! Even as i finally found my way down!

I juz scratched my head, and i feel like crying yet again.. haizzzz

1865

Yet another free time. Had free time in the morning and then after the hot and tiring rife range, followed my dinner and now. If only everyday would be like today, den BMT would be ok. Haha.. i'm onyl afraid of broad jump in IPPT. Tmr's IPPT Categorization test leh.. Broad kimp.. haizz.. 216 is all i need la!

110406 2245

No, it is not lights out yet! Today lights out time is 2300 & Reveille, however u spell it, is 0600. 1/2 hr later. Cuz we finished later today..

Today is another slack day. Had 2km run which din feel like it! Haha! Followed by a looong series of lectures & then the Rifle Presentation Ceremony. The M-16 is like so heavy la!

Today's food is one of the better ones.. but it's still not gd.. to me. Haha! I'm a food connoiseur, again howeevr u spell it. I can only commend their chicken rendang. And talking about food, i think i've put on weight. So i'm controlling my diet. THey give too much carbo which is fattening! Or maybe it's the hair!

And on the hair, i have NEVER felt rain drops on my scalp UNTIL today! Once again, it's depressing.

Each time even if sth has dropped on my head, i feel against touching it. I can't bear to feel my head! Cant! haizz

I'm back.. for a day only.. haha.. Sian..

I have no mood to blog now la.. BUT! I've been writing a jornal during my time in tekong. So maybe when i'm really free and have the time i would perhaps type it in here...

All my bitching is already written down...

But to emphasize a pt further, i HATE my hair now.. or the lack off.. I juz cant get used to it la!

Miss having all the time in the world.. and also a bit of her.. haha.....

In like 14 hours time i would be on the bus on the was to the ferry terminal...

4 months passed juz like tt after the As. Have I made full use of all these time i had? Well.. i think i have. Not exactly full but 80% at the very least!

From 1st Dec until 8 April. So many things changed in my life. Really.... If i had enlisted on 8 Dec, things would have been very very diferent. That's why i thank LCC =).

After the As, i tried to get a job.. went for interviews around Singapore. Even bought formal clothes for an interview. I tried for tuition jobs too.. But in the end i ended up in a job previously held by LCC at Tekka Mall. Ok job, with ok pay, and ok workload. But it lasted 6 weeks. The 3rd wk of Feb until now i have been jobless and juz staying at home. Surprisingly, i DID not spend day after day playing boring FM on the com. I watched soooooo many HK serials. It's one serial per week!

Let me recall.. Always Ready, Trimming Success, Pillow Case of Mystery, Under the Canopy of Love, Jiu Dian Feng Yun, Xin Hua Fang. But for Xin Hua Fang i only watched until eps8. Cuz i have to enlist and cant complete it! Rmb me saying about Always Ready being the best? I changed it to Under the Canopy of Love. It's juz a simple love story but it's vv nice. Maybe it's cuz Nikki is prettier than Charmaine. Haha! Now i want to catch Ren Sheng Ma Xi Tuan. It looks nice, and louiza said it's nice too! Sure to borrow it during my break!

Now back to wad i did after As. I signed up for Hapkido and a Vocal Course. I'm so proud of myself cuz i went to call up, enquire, and to go down and apply for them all by myself without asking anyone to go wif me! Haha! I've completed the Hapkido SERT Basic course, and also the Vocal Basic Course. I'm so looking forward to the Intermediate vocal course la! I'm going for lessons when i book out. Hopefully i'm able to bookout on Fris more often!

But most importantly. 1 name starting with L. We became so much closer in these 4 months compared to the 2 years! It's in the life journal i have written on my com.. From TM to Suntec to PS to River Hong Bao to Pasir Ris Park to Mount Faber cum Sentosa, and it ended. Den from Ice Skating, and tmr's TM. And yst, we talked on the phone from like 0215 to 0500. Haha! First time on the phone for more than 30 seconds, and more den 30s it was. I sound like i'm writing an essay.. Anyway, i was always worried that i had nothing to say. But finally i can say tt the barrier had totally been broken! =)

I wun be blogging until like 2 weeks later? A new chapter in my life would unfold.....

Before i end.. some photos...

My Vocal Classmates!! =)

CNY, The Usual!

Ramya's sending off..

It's Wed. There's Thurs and Fri. And den Sat le.
With these few days, i dunno to sleep more or sleep less. Sleep less cuz den there's more time to do other stuff.
Anyway, monday i lazed arnd and den hapkido loh. Tues morning soccer den lazed arnd. Pretty bad life huh. Haha.. den wed i have soccer in the morning followed by kbox in the evening. Thurs i have nth except hapkido. Fri.. juz hope she can confirm wif me. Haha..

So it's time for a breakdown in the wk's activity.

Basically, i bummed arnd. =D

Only went out on Sun la.. after my 3 sessions of driving, i rushed to TM. Met up wif my class ppl, or shld i say my class girls. I only realised tt i was the only guy there cuz the rest pangseheh! Cuz this type of big outing i dun like to ask who's going.. cuz it wun make a diff.. the only thing tt would make a diff is whether i wan to go or not.. Anyway, ate at pizza hut. Ramya treated us.. cuz she's going away for gd.. migrating to canada if i'm not wrong. On the 8th, which is the day i enlist..

Den Mon, bummed arnd den hapkido. Tues, bummed around totally. Wed, 3 sessions of driving again, den bummed arnd. Thurs, 2 sessions of driving, bummed around and hapkido. Fri, 1 session of driving, bumming around and vocal course.

Very probably the last vocal course cuz nxt week's the last lesson and i dun think i would be going. Going to discuss some package deal shit wif my instructor there.. hope i can still continue wif the 2nd stage and not be placed in a new class..

Talking about tt, i want to go Kbox b4 i enlist!! Nxt wed nite perhaps? Haha..

Lastly.. my hapkido. Haha... i am confident yet not confident if someone attacks me. Cuz i'm trained to cause serious damage to the person, BUT i dun wan to do tt. Haha.. oh wells..

What is a good show?

You smile at the happy scenes, u feel sad at the sad scenes, u get angry with the angry scenes.

When the actors and actresses are happy, u smile, are sad, you feel down.

The story touches one's heart.

In short, Under the Canopy Of Love.

That is a vv vv gd show!!!!!!!!!

2 more wks to NS... Say near not near far not far. Actually i'm now quite prepared for it. Except that i dun wan to stop my Hapkido training and the "chinese poetry", which is in fact a vocal course la! haha... yea... signed up for a vocal course supposed to improve singing techniques. But it's the vv basic and i've learnt a lot on the theory only. The techniques all juz a bit. And i have to stop la! Whereas if i continue for 3 more months i would have learnt all the techniques everything!!! Argh!!! I know what destroys ur vocals.. vocal warm-up, diaphragm exercises etc.. haha! So dun say i'm talking cock when i say sth about vocal! But overall, my vocal range and positioning is the same cuz i havent learnt yet la.............

Anyhow, made friends at the vocal course. 7 person, and i would most prob still be in contact with 2 girls who used to be frmo SRJC. Now waiting for U too.. it's cuz the only other guy is 30yrs old and the 2 girls are my age. Dun really talk to the others so.. ya..

Ok, i want to go for more hapkido training, i want to continue wif my vocal course... haha! Ok fine, i'm not tt prepared to get into NS.

So far i've watched quite a few HK serials. Always Ready, Trimming Success, The Pillow Case of Mystery and now i'm watching Under The Canopy of Love.

Always Ready is the best la! It's about GFS.. action plus the complexities of mature love. Haha! Wad am i saying sia....

Trimming Success is light-hearted. About a same area is HK la.. the ppl living there. And there's love too.

Pillow is funny! Haha! Some period case solving show. Btw, I watched tt show and realised Kenix Kwok has aged!!! She looks old now.. So does Charmaine Seah. A few yrs back they were very pretty la! Ok, i diverge a bit. I find HK girls prettier than Taiwan ones. That's beside the pt tt Taiwan girls are ugly.

Now watching Canopy of Love.. very fairy tale like. I'm expecting a very strong love story inside. I juz started so no comments la...

And HK serial OSTs are soooo nice! They can slow down the tempo of the tune and it would become so very sad! Esp when in-line with the story. HK serials all muz have some love story inside. Otherwise it would be boring! haha! Like in trimming success.. sometimes i juz daze at the show and only pay attention to scenes wif kevin and nnadia.. cuz their love story is nice. Haha!

I'm watching Canopy of Love now.. the tune of the theme song is nice!!

http://kevan.org/johari?name=Joel+Ong

These few days i have been sleeping at 4am and waking up at 3pm la! It's turning into a habit and it's bad. Cuz when i go in, i have to sleep at 1030 and wake up at 530. I muz get used to it. So i shall try to sleep at 2am. Haha..

Sort of stayed at home the whole of yst.. Woke up at 3, rest, ate at 5, went to hapkido until 11 and returned home. watched hk serials until 4, slept.

Today wake up at 3. haha! Wad a life?!?!

But different today la. Everyday like monday damn sian. Wasting life away before enlistment. I wonder wad i'll do when i finish my 2years. Den i'll have like 3 months or so to waste again. And those who enlisted on jan would have like 6 months or so......

Today went ice skating. Haha! Ya.. first time i ice skated or bladed in my entire life. Ok la.. so-so loh... still cannot balance well. But 2 hrs moving around the rink is tiring. My legs are aching now. It's worse than playing 4hrs of soccer! But still it's not bad an experience. Would go again to practice more la.. den hopefully i can ice skate soon. Oh.. i fell 3 or 4 times. haha..

Den after tt tried stonegrill. Ordered a set wif all meat, and a set wif all seafood. And we shared so there was greater variety. btw, the names of the sets dun tell u much. Tell me the diff between ocean's feast and seafood platter.......... Overall so-so only la. The only thing interesting is cooking the raw food on the piece of stone. And their water chestnut drink tasted and seem like grated chestnut in barley. When it came to the bill. Oh man.. soooooooooo paiseh la! We thought it would be like not more than 40. Den the bill came.. 40.95. And we had to empty out pockets to get out $1. It's soooo paiseh k! Ppl who always dun have money to spend wun know how we felt la! When would my debit card come?

Accompanied louiza back home den i returned home.. tt's for today.

Tmr i'm having driving. Thurs i'm having driving. Fri i'm having FTT. Sun i'm having driving =D

I have juz booked more driving practical lesson slots. This means from now until i enlist, i have another 22 more lessons =D. I dun believe i cant complete the course before i enlist! Haha! That is on top of the 8 lessons i have already completed. In about 2 or 3 more lessons, i would have completed the road stuff and return back to the circuit to do the parking etc.. I hope i can pass on my first attempt on the test la!
Anyway, Wed went to K wif loo and jun. Thurs morning went ball kicking den in the evening i went to this PA gathering. I was so surprised when millicent chua msg me inviting me to the gathering la! Had bbq and a chalet. I did not stay over though.. but saw my juniors all. I was the most senior there la! Haha! And there's this new technician guy, and he heard my name b4.. Dunno if it's true or not sia.. make me happy only. Haha!
Den Fri.. at home whole day loh. Today morning went ball kicking at bedok again. But there was a tournament going on, so we went to kick at the netball court.

Thurs.. went k-ing wif loo jun and wy. And i think my voice is breaking again.. Haha! Squeeze very high tones den the voice become very dry and cracked. Most of the time it sounds bad and will break notes.. haha! But i'm so proud of myself. I unexpectedly reached one of the very high notes of "jiu shi ai ni" and it sounded nice. Haha! =D.

Fri.. went driving.. den my chinese poetry class was cancelled last min.. sian.......

Sat.. went to NUS and NTU open house wif loo.. He met a few tj ppl, i met a few mj ppl. Saw constance, kiran.. and the rest i recognize but dun really know.. I think my 1st 2 choices are life sciences and computational biology. Hope i can get into one of this 2 la.. But if i'm given TCM at NTU, den i'll haf a very very big dilemma..

Today went to Holland Village Breko wif jun vin loo and vid! The ambience is ok, price is gd, food is not bad. Overall the place is nice to chill out. Especially wif the sofa.. haha! But It's damn far la! Nxt stop.. stone grill! Hopefully.. Haha..

In exactly one month's time, i would be in NS. 4.5 wks. So fast sia.. now i feel the pre-NS symdrome..

Anyway, juz came back. Did sth i nv done b4 in my entire life, and having mixed feelings now. Shant elaborate on tt here but juz add on to this post when i save it in my com at the end of the month. Btw, ppl, dun think stupid la!

Went to harbour front, took the cable car to mt faber.. which hardly has anything except high-class restaurants. HIGH class.. ppl were weaing full suits la! After tt went to sentosa.. We DID NOT pay for admission. But the cable car brought us in free. Haha.. lucky maybe... cuz the entrance was locked and we had to go by a longer way, which brought us INTO sentosa. But had to walk quite long.. 4 flights of escalators.. or is it 5.. Haha..

So aimlessly walked around b4 buying BK and went to watch this Laser show.. Free laser show. But although it's free, there werent many ppl watching it. Mainly tourists la.. And there was this tour guide who took a china group who spoke wif the china accent. It's damn funny la! Haha!

So after the show, finished the meal, sat around and talked for quite some time b4 cable-car-ing back to harbour front. Sent her home. And now i'm home.

K-ing tmr i think.. wif jun loo and wy. A bit sian everytime k same songs. So i would practice some songs later. Haha! Wa Qie by Na Quan Ma Ma.. Nice song..

I was browsing food forums.. and suddenly have cravings for.....
1) Pratas =D. Gd ones and not those wet, soggy, starchy and tough pratas with spicy but tasteless curry. Haha! I think Jalan Kayu's are a little ex though.. Anyway, i heard this place at tanah merah has nice pratas.. They have some creative creations of pratas too.. cant rmb the name though.. Someone help me?

2) Dim Sum! This i have been craving non stop for like five hundered million years already!! Looked up a lot of places and it's almost all in the mornings until like 2, 3pm. And a lot of recommendations loh.. I heard there's one at Mirana hotel, and another at roxy sq. With a lot of variety and only like approx $13nett.. Gd huh..

3) Fish.. Haha! I can never have enough of fish. Dunno y.. I think i can say tt fish would be my most preferred meat now. Haha.. But un-fresh fish turns me off. No, fresh fish does not turn me on (nudges jun)! But the down side of fish? It's damn ex outside la! Spend a bomb on a small piece which vid would call appetizer.

Talking about fish. There's a place tt's getting vv popular now. It's Stonegrill at East Coast.. heard it's somewhere opp Katong Village.. stop at katong shopping centre and walk down. Wad's so special about tt place.. bbq-ing on a piece of stone. hahaha!! Yes, cooking food on a heated stone. =D

For the whole of last wk, it's considered rather boring.. Though i went out everyday, yes and everyday, it's only the evenings. So the afternoons are free. It's not say sian, but wasting life away.. Haha.. Come wed when loo and lcc finishes BMT, i can say tt in 1 mth's time, i would be inside there. So fast huh.. Dec, Jan, Feb, March.. soon april. Haizzz... now i realise sth.. b4 NS, one would want to spend time wisely, effectively. Dun really haf much time left..

Anyway, wad i do at home? No more FM.. it's a waste of precious time.. I'm watching HK serials.. Currently watching Always Ready. Nice show!! haha..

And also when loo comes out from his break, i need to plan stuff. Not juz for him. For myself also =D. He has like 12 days or so. He wants ball kicking, k-ing and going out-ings....

Who says watching soccer games, football focus, tiger first edition, sports centre and football crazy dosent help in your grades? Who says visiting soccernet daily doesnt do one any good?

These helped in my GP esaay ok! I wrote every fact and debate there is on Germany 2006 for my essay and ended up wif a B3. =D

Got back results today. Well, gt 51 pts. Which i thought is quite ok... B C D plus a b3 for GP. And ppl cry for nth today la! There's someone who gt A A B and a C6 for gp, and this person cried like nobody's business cuz of GP. I mean wad de.........

Mj did much better this yr compared to last yr.. but tt's not impt..

Loo gt 3 As C6. Wan gt C E E or sth like tt plus a b4 i think. Raj gt a B B C plus an A2, which is gd but not tt gd enough for him to get into sth he wants - law. She gt A A B plus a C5. haha.. which is also damn gd.

Oh shit, now i gt a thought. Those wif 3As would all compete among themselves for courses like medicine and the likes. Den those who get aab, abb and all tt would compete wif me for the courses i want! SHit!! Haha.. Try la.. Probably could get a referal letter from my CT.. tt's wad she said la.. That is if i dun get into any of my 5 choices at either ntu or nus.

These 3 days or so, she keeps appearing in my mind la....... such tt i feel so u know.. Dunno y also. Cuz i'm afraid there's a "ben chen", but this time the "ben chen" would belike in his early twenties. haha.. dunno wad i'm talking la.. maybe juz her and her sis' friend from aikido.. And yst was the biggest regret la.............

Went to K yst again!! haha.. wif jun san lily lyn hung and her brother. Sang from like 7 to 1030 like tt.. Skipped hapki for tt la! haha..

Den today juz came back.. went to fishermen village and walked around the park wif her.. And i brought some items wif me which i planned to make use of but didnt.. nxt time maybe.. time is running short........

tmr's results.. meeting my class ppl at 1230...

I know y i'm sooo vexed now. it's not the results. Mainly cuz i did not use the items i brought out juz now.. And i'm worried cuz time is short and there might be another........................

I'm sure 2 is my number. Nxt time someone asks me about my fav no, it's 2. Y? All started from soccer, my jersey number is 2. Den 4 out of 5 is tues. So it's also 2. haha...

I have a lot of things on my mind now... It's not the results la. I dun think much of it. Afterall i've said i'll leave it to wed, which is TMR!! den i'll freak myself out in the space of like 30min or so..

There's another thing which i've vv vexed about.. Dunno y also. But hopefully after today this would be solved...

Den there comes tmr, where loo wans to kick but like no one free to kick. He hasnt kicked in like since he entered army..

Having a lot to think or do is bad and mentally tiring when the subject involved is not u or can be determined by u. Afterall, if it revolves around me only, i can decide wad to do first and all tt juz like tt. But when i have to wait for ppl around me to b4 i can solve the stuff, it makes white hair sprout...

I've not blogged for more than 1 wk!! How rare is tt..

This week, i started my driving practical lessons =D. And it's 2 lessons a day k.. Cuz i wan to finish it soon, and i think it's more time efficient if i go all the way down to ubi for 2 slots.

I think besides going for driving, my friday 'chinese poetry' and hapkido, i've been staying at home. Let me think........ Nop, went to cut my hair. Haha.. tt's it. I finished the Shao Nian Zhang San Feng Series in this wk also. And went K-ing on Fri.

While K-ing, sth shocked me la... Results are out on Wed!!!! Shit... time to face reality................. I'm sooooo nervous of it la. So i'm keeping my mind of it and frighten my self to shit like when we're in the hall and waiting for the ppl in front of me to collect it. The thought of it is killing me.. haha.. Cuz i'm going to do badly? OK..... enough of this.. push everything to wed...

I had a dream last night.. But i shall juz keep it shhhh. =)

To LCC: I know u would be reading this as and when u r free.. So Thank you sooooo much! Wad u did at toa payoh changed my life. A BIG change.. And if u din do tt, a lot of things would have happened. Afterall, 4 months is a vv long time. Thank You. =)

I think i'm in the mood to blog now. And finally, i changed my background music. Whose song? Kelly Poon! I bought her album today.. the limited edition white version! And i like quite a few. Esp the tune of this one.. the lyrics are meaningful also leh..

These 3 days w/o work is rather boring. There seem to be nth to do at home. But the feeling is quite different from the "having nothing to do" feeling after the As. After the As is really u dunno wad to do at all! Totally blank out when you wake up, before you sleep. But now, i feel tt there's sth there but not there. Get it? Haha.. dunno how to describe la! But i guess the period after the As was a huge load off and the intense change is hard to get used to. Well, i have 7.5 weeks b4 enlistment. Not tt short, but not tt long either. Soon it'll be 7 den 6 den 5...

Still i want to go on a holiday b4 i enlist! That's probably the only unfulfilled dream left b4 i can enlist peacefully.. Haha.. On 2nd thought.. there's another. But, it's not up to me now. Haha.. Come next week i would be starting my first driving lesson. =). And i dun think i've blogged about this but i've learnt to cook a few stuff after As also. Bigger =) And i'm learning hapkido and attending this "chinese poetry course" (i wun say until i see a change otherwise so paiseh). i'm so glad tt i worked towards my dreams and wishes.. =). Tt reminds me.. yst she sent me a song about dreams and it's so meaningful la. It is ok! Not cuz she sent it. Some others she sent din appeal to me also.. It's a bit long la.. but for the few months i'm out of NS b4 U (hopefully), i muz think of wad other stuff to take up.

Now.. i still have quite a lot of spare time left.. what can i do? Wad else can i take up or learn. Hmm... Cuz i want to do constructive stuff and not laze around like wad i've been doing.. PT training comes in March. haha.. tt's like 2 wks time. Wan!! 2 wks time.. march!! GO JOG AND PULL AND JUMP!! IMPT!! Cuz lcc made my NAPFA record look really gd. How he did it i shall not say wait i kana sued. Haha!

Talking about lcc.. i haven met or even seen any MJC friends since prom la! Tt's so long. Except for 2. Do i miss them? Not really.. cuz groups of individuals. A simple outing juz to sit by coffee bean talking would be great! Oh well.. the results would be out soon, and we would meet then. And LCC!! Amazingly, i haven seen him since he enlisted la! Not even played soccer! Shit rite... it's almost the same wif loo. Since he enlisted, there was only CNY gathering.. As for louiza, well.. regular basis.. haha...

I said.. i have the mood to blog =D so looong entry.

Wad i did these days?

Monday... i lazed around at home the whole day. Luckily there was hapkido in the evening to occupy me.

Tues, i lazed around the whole day doing nth. Well, actually played FM2006, which i gt tired of now. I browsed the web entensively. Haha.. looking for stuffs (winks at jun), which i wil say wad later on. Den slept at 5am! No! NOT SURFING PORN UNTIL 5AM la! I surfed the web in the afternoon btw. Anyway, i was watching tv b4 going online like 12am and was looking for touching english songs. Couldnt find a couple so looked at my contact list hoping for jun to be online so i can ask him. But it turn out tt she was online and i din notice it.. haha.. so asked her and ended up crapping all the way until 5plus AM!! before she had to sleep cuz her mum was waking up. haha!

Now wed, since i slept at 5plus, naturally i woke up late. And after tt wentt o buy kelly's album, den met her (not kelly poon.........) for awhile at her place den tt sums up my day. And now is night. haha..

Tmr's thurs.. pretty boring day i suppose.. but hapkido in the evening! Hapkido is fun and also i made a few friends there. Which made it more fun! But wad de hell... it's in toa payoh la! Used to be in yishun and it was juz 30min using bus 39. Now bus 88takes 1hr 15min. Grrr... luckily i gt a ride back. But the trip there is bad.... Btw, my master said i improved a lot!! =D

Yes, back to wad i was surfing for. Found this place flowerpod.com.sg. So signed up and go read the forum threads. And it's VV VV VV enriching. haha! Really!! Ppl's experience everything. And i think collette is there cuz i doubt bit would go there. Their pic was on an avatar. Anyway, besides tt, i was surfing for songs. Chinese songs. And i gt like 30 new songs to listen to. They might be old la.. but i juz gt them. 30 songs loh.. Sooo many.. Dunno how to master them all to sing at kboxes. haha! PLUS the 10 from kelly. ok, maybe 8. Cuz i dun like 2 songs.

U know.. blogging is so not gay to me. Haha.. it's like talking to oneself. It's sth i can do tremendously well =D. And wif tt i'm reminded of another thing. She calls laptops lappy. Haha! I was so amused la! And i said her, so now she uses laptop. Anyway, i want to talk about my working colleagues now..

There are 5 colleagues. Let's start from the ppl closer the main door and work it back.

There's the admin asst Euana. She juz joined the company.. a wk after me. Well, she's one forgetful person. She forgot the password for the photocopier which was 987654.

Den there's Katherine. She's the accounts person. And she is the one whom i hate to do jobs for. Not tt she has bad character. In fact she treats me the best la! She explains wad she wants me to do thoroughly. And also goes further so tt i can understand wad i'm doing and it might help in future. And she gave me a $6 angpao also loh! I dun like to help her do her accounts cuz it means checking numbers and sums in pale ink and small font. But other den tt, it's really nice helping her.

Next is Edward. The boss asst i guess. He gives me stupid stuff to so sometimes. Haha! Like ask me to finish dim sum he da-baoed from lunch. And dim sum is not shit stuff ok! It's good stuff. Soft shell crabs, mango and prawn roll etc.. He also asked me to open a hamper. Haha! Pretty nice guy whom the others keep on trying to help get a gf.

Now's Sara. Advertising and Promoting person. Her jobs are the easiest! Chop vouchers, sell charity bears, return samples to shops at bugis junction.. haha! And she's easy to work wif also.

William's the one tt i'm seated beside. He's the happy-go-lucky fella. So i have no stress doing my stuff besides him. And i use his com to surf and msn also! I mainly did filing for him. Cuz he's the leasing executive. Receives lots of calls everything. Gave me a $2 angpao. haha!

Sooling's the boss. She overworks me in the sense tt she always give me stuff to do loh. But wad i like most is running errands. Going around singapore.=D. Cuz i am able to waste time and all tt.. to shop.. haha! And she still owes me $5 for the last trip la! But i'm too lazy to go back to ask her.. after all it's only $5 la.. one meal and tt's it le.. So dun eat one meal or eat 2 half meals loh..

I know tekka mall like the back of my hand now la! The technicians, cleaners, security all know me too. haha.. but i dun think i would miss the place. In fact i have nv been there b4 i was sent there to work. But tt place is so convenient for me cuz i could go to yishun wif a bus. Toa payoh wif a bus. Clark Quay wif an mrt station! For all my courses! And i din have much to do so it was easy money. And i made like abuot $800 during these 6wks. And i've spent like $200 or so already. I'm glad i nv go poly btw.. cuz i think i would be as broke as jun always. Haha! I spent a lot sia.. i need someone to curb my expenditure!

Btw, ppl say it's different when you spend the money u made urself. I find no difference leh.. i asked her too (cuz she spents a lot on rubbish too.. haha..), and no difference. And i guess it's cuz we always have enough to spend. So it doesnt seem tt the money we earn is tt great. Or maybe our job slack like mad.. I have hardly anything to do there and my lunch is supposed to be 1 hr but it is usually 2hrsplus. And all she does is printing emails, sorting them and filing them. Sometimes editing contracts.. And these job are nth la.. so many dun feel the sense of achievement..

How long is this blog post? Haha! I hope some faithful readers would like them.. cuz at least this isnt a boring post.. to me at least.. There's so much to read! Until i blog again... now enjoy this song~~

To start it of.. Happy Valentine's Day!! haha... okok.. and wif tt, happy birthday lyn.

3 yrs ago at this time, it was nth special to rmb. 2 yrs ago, i was wif my jc 1st 3 mths class. It fell on a sat and we were at pasir ris park. Doing wad? CROSS COUNTRY for mjc....... Wad duh.. But still some of us gave each other small notes and sutff. A year ago, i was wif my new class. And ppl baked cookies... i think a total of 4 or 5 cookie bakers, some gave sweets, wrote notes.. and all my teachers gave stuff. The wonders of JC ppl.. i nv gt tt in sec sch... Haha.. Anyway, this yr it falls on a Tues. No sch, waiting for NS. Lazing at home now. Haha..

I'm rather tired now. It's not cuz i slept a few hrs only.. Or cuz i kicked ball for like 5hrs. Cuz i cooked for my mum's side today. Haha! Cooked 8dishes la! There're edible ok! I nv cooked so much b4 loh... But at least the food's nice. Except for one or 2.. haha! But it's gd enough!

Finally i am jobless. I din blog about this last week did i. I was told tt Fri was my last day like an hr b4 i was supposed to knock off la! So last min loh.. if they told me tt for lunch i could have taken MORE printing paper and some stationery from there. And also back up and bring home a copy of all the work i did there. Anyway, i have no job and i dun plan to go looking for one unless one comes look for me. 8 weeks to army. So i'll laze around. Coincidentally, monday would most prob be her last day at work too. So, yea... haha...

It's been like one week since i last posted.. Long time by my standards. Haha.. Cuz there's hardly anything to post loh..

The Os results would be out this Fri. And tt means the As could be out next fri!! Ahh!!

Anyway, worry about tt when it's confirmed. I juz came back from River Hong Bao. Went there look look see see.. eat. Threw some coins in the wishing well. Bought the honey-made figurines. And also watched the fire works. Ya.. with her. Our 4th... hope the 5th would be next wk.. Haha..

Like i said.. the more dates, the more comfortable. Haha!

With the other blog, i've like nth much to blog on this blog le.. Haha.. Nvm la, gt wad i feel like blogging den blog loh..

Now is Feb le.. and i'm scared and nervous. Cuz the results would be out vv soon. For all we know it might already be at MOE. Haizzz... I'm scared of getting back the results cuz i know i din do well.. Ahhhhh~~

Anyway, i'm off from work tmr.. Took the day off. Dunno wad to do loh... Sleep until like noon den at home whole day meh? Sian.. Cuz cant go shop or stuff. Wait i buy sth wrong during this 15days and i suay one whole yr how? I'm a vv superstitious person.

Happy Chinese New Year!!!! Haha!

I'm damn full now la! Juz now during dinner, i ate like five hundred million butter prawns! And tt's y i'm so full now! Screw calories for CNY.. muz eat full full den can be lucky. Also cannot buy shoes and bags during the 15days!

I'm soooo looking forward to monday! Haha! I hope ppl dun disappoint me on the day itself! I have high hopes on monday's programme.. haha

My body is aching now. Arms, back, sides, thighs and hamstrings. Training on tuesday caused all these.. Haha.. Oh man.. I believe loo and bit suffered worse when they first went into NS..

Anyway, i think i'm losing my job.. haha.. Nvm la.. i'm tired of working. I need a change of environment =D

I havent played a machine at the arcade for like 500 million years. And suddenly, in 5wks, i did it twice! Haha... The arcade is a nice place to hang around if u have nth else to do. That's wad we have been doing when there's nth else to do. Last resort though.. So i need more ideas. Esp since lyn's bday is coming.. (there's a link la!)

Blogging now seems like a chore! Cuz there's nth out of the ordinary happening. I dun want to sleep early everyday! Cuz otherwise when i wake up, i would go straight to work. And can only settle on my com at about 11 plus. That sucks la.. And today i realised sth. The free time at work is only not boring when u have ppl to talk to on msn, otherwise the free time is boring..........

Oh, i juz rmbed sth. On our way to ps on the train, we we standing btw, there came a extremely touchy and pda couple who came to stand just beside us!!! Oh man.. Luckily we faced the other direction.

And i dun see why ps is a gd place to walk. It has shit! 3 cd shops, 3 bk shops! and a whole level of Yamaha.. Wad de hell?! And it is said to be in the top 10 dating spots in the Newpaper. That's y i nv liked tt place. And tt's y i nv thought i would go there wif her of all ppl. Well, it's the company not the place tt counts.. haha..

I think hapkido is making me more fucked-up. Or rather, show my fucked-up side more often. Today there was this middle age woman in the bus. The bus was full and i was standing quite near to the door. She said excuse to me, and i replied i'm going down too. But she still squeezed forward. Nvm, maybe she cant understand wad i'm talking cuz i usually speak too fast. But when getting down, it was so obvious i was getting down too cuz i followed the crowd, but she still attempted to squeeze past. Basket, so i decided to do wad i usually do to ppl in soccer. And naturally, i gt to the door b4 her. And i took my time scanning the card and walking down the stairs. Haha.. childish huh.. But i wun even think of doing this had she not squeezed. Taking a bus to school early in the morning has trained my squeezing technique. Cuz u have to be the first few to board. Otherwise u would get stuck at the door, or worse still, miss the bus totally!

I am as red as an uncooked cockle and look like a red panda.
Kicked ball today. And i am sun burnt quite badly! I've gt a small abrasion on my left knee, and my left thumb is bruised at the nail. It's vv painful la!
Anyway,i'm getting sick of working! Working is so boring la! Especially if doing sth do monotonous and not to my interest! Give me a PA job or sth! Grr.. so i'm working now juz for the sake of time wasting and cuz it is VV flexible!
I'm also cracking my brains to a place in singapore which is nice to walk around. Note: walk around.. and not shopping.. I cant seem to find a nice place to go around in spore la! Suntec and PS were like so-so loh.. Cant take up much time. Can ppl give me some ideas??

The first time was soo excited. 2nd time was so excited. 3rd time was excited. Haha... getting used to it? I hope so... and longer too.. this time the whole afternoon..

Well, juz came abck from PS. And i nv thought i would go there wif her cuz i dun really like the place. But i think since it's a sat the whole atmosphere was pretty ok. Watched Narnia. Gd show. Haha! Ppl shld have watched it a long time ago and i juz wacthed it now.

Ok den, until nxt time..

I have a leaking nose. My nose is leaking literally.
Anyway, let me tell u about my job. I'm an admin assistant for the management team of Tekka Mall. It's weekdays, 9am to 530pm, with one hour break.That means it's 7.5hrs daily. It's a great job. Trust me. Half the time u have nth to do, 1/4 u sit in front of the com msning and typing some shit documents, and the other 1/4 photocopying, sorting and filing stuff! That's not all! Let's use this week as an example. On Tues, i went to work at 1pm until 530. On wed i went to work at 945 and left at 545 BUT, i'm clocked 8hrs wif no break. On thurs i'll be going to work at 1pm still. And fri most prob 9 to 530. Great job huh =D
If u happen to come to Tekka Mall for some weird reason, call me =D. There's a 60% chance that i would be there. Haha!

When i have kids, i'll let them learn to cycle, roller blade and swing when they're small! If my boy likes soccer, i'll ask him to juggle five hundred million times and watch soccer so that he can be pro when he reaches sec 1. I'll encourage my children , girl or boy, to get into a relationship at sec 2.

Ok fine, this is asking them to do wad i did not manage to and cant forever. I envy secondary sch couples like san and lyn, but i am put off by couples like bit and collette. Difference is obvious la..

Anyway, i have a sore throat! It's cuz by heatiness cuz pimples are coming out too. I hope cough and flu dun follow... Deer horn water pls..

ok fine.. now category B is still there. Catrgory B has opened up to allow to be moved into category X, which i hope would eventually fall wif category A. Ahh.. it's confusing.. blogging is useless now. Byeee

2 years ago when i went to JC, my life consisted of 3 categories of ppl. 2mths ago when i left JC, it dropped to 2 categories, A and B. One from C gt promoted to A, while the rest slowly disintegrated. B might get slowly disintegrated from now onwards.. as in NOW.. not the ppl, or rather person, but the communication. So, like 50% of my life might be taken away now.. Oh, there's a category Z, a special one consisting of 2 others from mj. They lie in this cuz the communication is limited but quality-ed. Category A is busy now.. the whole gang of category A is busy wif different stuff, but communication is still roughly there wif the special website online. As least the bulk of category A owns the website, while some others visit it.

Anyway, i wrote a song, but my chinese sucks, so the lyrics are a bit weird. I dun have a title yet.. maybe when i'm free i'll post it.... The starting stanza's:2004 1 yue san hao, kai xue de di yi tian, yu jian le dan du de ta, zou guo qu wen le ta yi ju.. And it is NOT about Meridian JC, nth to do wif it.. but more appropriately, wad happened b4, during, and after Orientation. It sounds happy though, and there's a part tt soudns vv old.. Haizz...

I have not really laughed my hearts out since the new yr. So sad huh.. Muz laugh by CNY latest or i'll have a moody year..
Anyway.. i miss laughing and going OUT wif the usual. Cuz the last time one big grp of us actually went OUT was like forever la.. Oh man~~ sad huh.. We shld make it a muz to come out once a mth.. haha..
ok, i have nth to blog here now.. cuz i juz blogged there. So maybe i would blog lesser here? Cuz i have there to blog too..
Last thing.. she's confusing me again.. haizzzzzz

I had the weirdest dream yst.

The main characters were Robin from Batman & Robin, 8-man (some superhero from my imagination), and The Joker (also from batman).

So joker did sth bad, and ended up being caught by robin and 8-man. He was put on trial and placed in jail. As he was being escorted to the prison, he broke free and tried to escape. He ran and jumped into the lift tunnel. (lift shaft wadever u call it). He fell a few levels before jumping onto a ledge and banged on the door of the lift at tt level shouting, " I'm here!!!". Expecting his ppl to get him out. But there was no response. He jumped further down and tried again. And still no one. He tried a few more times before he reached a level wif a small hole at the door where he can look out. When he looked out, to his shock, he saw robin smirking outside. He jumped all the way down and reached the bottom. Den he heard robin say,"everytime we catch u, u would do the same trick. So now, i've caught all ur ppl and u have no one to save u." After tt, robin told 8-man tt the joker is dead and pressed the button to bring the lift down to squash the joker. At this pt, the joker was vv nervous and dripping sweat. He also regretted everything he did. BAM. he was killed. His spirit den walked out and stood against a table. Surprisingly, robin could see him and questioned him a little. Now the funny part. Rmb the tennis commercial where the boy's father only heard the good stuff his son's instructor told him.. Ya, sth like tt happened. The joker answered the questions wif speech bubbles which i saw in my dream. THe background was white and the text was black. So what u could see was juz what is supposed to be seen. If u highlight the entire speech bubble, u would see some other prints in white. U add them in and the whole dialogue becomes vulgar. Haha.. weird dream.. i woke up after tt..

I received 3 paper cuts in the last 3 days............. This is wad happens in my job. I have to flip five hundred million pages in a day and to look at tiny prints to compare digits. Grr... it's tiring for the eyes and zaps concentration...

And today, at about 1845, my left eye kept on twitching for a good 15min or so. My mum says someone is thinking of me.. Hmmm..

I'm not working tmr though.. took the entire day off for my theory test. But den again i want to go to work tmr. Why? Cuz the boss wun be arnd and it would be vv slack. U have nth to do half the time.. like today =D

Lastly, the monthly "tues" is coming. Maybe.. we'll see... And after reading some stuff and letting myself get influenced by them, i've decided. The next time shall be the time. be it at some nice place wif nice ambience or at the lift.

I'm at work now.. as usual. And my job is getting slackier by the day. I hardly have anything to do now la! The boss gives me hard work, the workers give me easy work. And lately, the boss has nth impt to give me except for photocopying stuff. Oh.. i have a position. It's called Admin Assistant (Temp).

On my way to work juz now, there was an escalator which broke down. And we all had to walk up. While walking up, i thought to myself.. i'm so young, the ppl arnd me are getting tired halfway up the escalator. And also, i'm so old, in like 6 years time i might be like them! I'm getting OLD!! Ahhh!! Haha.. last time when the adults say they wan to be young, we would like go "come on..", we want to be ur age. Now halfway there, i say, nononon, i want to be yougn again.

Anyway, i'm juz so prous of theusual-.blogspot.com

The reason why only i posted there is cuz the two other person tt knows about it are san, who hardly ever blogs, and ray, who is in NS now.. so ya. I want to see everyone start blogging. It would be fun la! =)

One more thing.. i feel so uneasy now. Cuz i juz ate 3 stuff from Old Chang Kee. No, not eating stuff from Old Chang Kee makes one old. But it is oily!!

I spent sometime going up a blog for The Usual. =) I'm soooo proud of it cuz i did it from scratch la! The pictures everything.. my first time creating a whole new blog! =)

I hope it would not die out.. And it would be active! Ppl like wan, jun vin are expected to blog more frequently...... well, i expect them to.... =D

I'm at work now.. or at least i'm at my workplace now. It's lunch. Well, my lunch ended like 40min ago, but since the boss and everyone else is not arnd except for the admin clerk, i have nth to do. So, i'm posting this post for the fun od posting and to waste time. Un fortunately, my typing speed is not tt slow and it barely passed one min now..
Anyway, i want to be a relief teacher la!! Really want to be one loh.. A few days back HSC called me and asked me to be relief teacher.. BUT i can only commit until the end of March.. they wanted someone until June.. which i cant cuz of NS commitments. Serving the coutnry is imopt u know..

First day of work today... Working for the management ppl of Tekka Mall. It's a 9 to 5 job.. cant say much but today i opened like five hundred million letters and tmr i would have to photocopy all of them ONE BY ONE cuz their photocopier sucks.. photocopy more than 4 sheets and it would get jammed!!

Anyway, went to eat Seoul wif Jun Loo And Vin.. Sort of meal before loo goes off to army... It's only army la, but i felt tt he's going to leave us for some time. Well, 2 wks though.. I wonder if one of us happen to migrate den wad would the whole feeling and atmosphere be like.. vv vv sad for my case though.. Loo's going off tmr morning at 9am to Tekong, so it's 2 wks until i can see him again! For once, i'm missing loo.. haha.. LOUIS (SHUT UP VIN!!). Well, for the meal, bit raj and san were SUPPOSED to come... but at about 4pm, raj said he was sick, at 6pm, bit said he cant come cuz of personal reasons, and at 610, san said he cant come cuz he's busy and he's sick.. I was soooo disappointed la! I planned this meal for bit and loo and called all the guys.. but in the end like tt! I dunno how much u all value the friendship among all of us.. maybe u think we're so close tt small things like tt u dun need turn up, but for me, every small thing counts. EVERY. Haizzz.. it's vv tiring to go and msg and call ppl and persuade them to go for outings/gatherings loh.. How many ppl actually bother to do wad i'm doing. Most would call ppl, a lot nv go, cancel. Some dun go, den dun bother and juz go. This is sooo not right... Haizz. And the sadness, disappointed and anger juz now was juz so much ok...

Another thing now.. rmb me saying about Wang Lai in the previous post? I have things to add on.. the other day i was at Sports Council Tampines tok claim money for the field they cancelled. Some probs cropped up and the lady had to call like her whole address book.. and the 2nd last person she called was a louiza from somewhere.... Today at work.. i saw this cake for the birth of baby in the office. Guess who's child?? Matthias Ong from Joe Ong and Louisa Loh. How coincidental things can get huh...

I was reading sth interesting and decided to post this..

Ppl wif certain surnames cannot go tgt.. cuz apparently, it's bad luck. Like Huang and Ye cannot.. cuz Huang Ye means yellow leaf, den yellow leaf is a dying leaf so it's bad.

And also Gu Xu.. it means bitter mushroom. SPOILT!!! So cannot!

And i was juz trying out sth.. Wang Lai. =D. means money come in.. lots of it.. haha! Who's wang and who's lai? =D

So, Happy New Year! =D

Yst.. haha! Spend new year eve counting down, or sort of, at loo's place wif jun vin bit and smx. Though smx went there to eat only. Anyway, loo's mum prepared bbq steamboat for us and we ate there. Only a small group la.. but gd enough.. better den having no life and staying at home to sleep.

Ok, now's the gay part which i am NOT supposed to say =D. We watched saw 2. Me loo jun vin and bit. 5 guys squeeze onto Loo's queen size bed to watch the show. =D. Haha!! In case u dunno, saw 2 is a gross show. But it's not TT gross la.. except the neck part. After tt we watched Sha Po Lang. Same.. 5 guys squeezed onto the bed. Me bit and loo was at the back and vin and jun sort of took te pillow and laid on our out stretched legs which we put under the blankets =D After tt we winning eleven-ed. And tt's it. Almost the same as Xmas though.. but wif bit too..
