[ 867. Jiesheng's Birthday ]
Ok ok, i finally got jiesheng's pics up.
Anyway, i've recently switched to this ethernet modem for my broadband, cuz my bro forgotten to bring the driver of my previous modem home. And i realized that my uploading speed is like freaking slow, that for one photo, it takes like ages to upload. Reminds me of those 56kbps days. Argh. Dammit. |

[ 866. Wedding ]
I simply cannot comprehend how with 200% spares, murphy's law can still triumph. Early in the morning when i got up, gave bso a wake up call. That champion went back to sleep, and in the end when he's supposed to pick me up at 0715, he's still at home. I got to s2's place on a cab, paid by bso, of course. We tried the first battery of the video cam supplied to us. It died. Switch to backup battery. It lasted us long enough. Long enough to get to jeanette's place. Long enough for the haggling at the door. Just before the gate was finally opened... it died. Oh great. Then when we moved on using jeanette's brother's videocam, the battery went faulty. Oh, what a fantastic day...... I used my digital camera to capture videos instead... though i knew the quality will definitely be compromised. Never mind. That was our 300th percent backup already. And the last resort. Next up, we headed back to s2's place, where everything still went ok. Till we got back to jeanette's place again... we got there earlier than the bridal car, and guess what? we dozed off in the car and missed shooting the tea ceremony. Argh.
Murphy, screw you and your law.
Did i mention this? There was a funeral procession at the void deck of s2's neighbouring block, moving out at the same time as the second time we left for jeanette's place. Go piece things yourself. |

[ 865. Office ]
Let's not start this post with a dampened spirit since i'm still in ecstasy after the arrival of the ntu letter. So much so that i wasn't really bothered with many of those nasty comments made by some supposedly not very nasty friends i had in camp. =) Aye aye. Well.
Ok, back to the dear green-and-blue office. Ya know... this week hasn't really been good. Primarily due to guard duty. Something really illfated happened, i'd put it. For one, the complex duty officer decided to make guofeng's medical status a big hoo haa at midnight. Then someone else was totally misfortunate to get caught not standing during flag raising by an elderly 2wo. What could go worse? Things definitely got pretty gloomy the next day, with all the interviews, statements, pep talks and whatever.
I have this slight quirk with people putting me down. Apparently i got pretty irked by this guy who perpetually been putting me down all the time. Though meant as jokes at times, and he may be right most of the time, but when you don't get a single word of encouragement from that dude... well, you feel discouraged. I realize i'd have a tendency to shut up with him around nowadays though. Lolx. He's sort of a mirror for me though. I'd tend to watch my words more carefully nowadays too.
Aye aye. Gotta help s2 at his wedding tomorrow. And i'm having this darn sore throat now. To think i had a rotiboy just now. Kekekeke. I simply can't resist it. heh. |

Life is not about myself. That's what i'm taught. Life is all about myself. That's what i became. Life is more than myself. That's what i learnt.
What i didn't mention was the apparent awkwardness eric, hansel, and i shared over dinner. No, i didn't feel the awkwardness. I didn't even feel upset now, as a matter of fact.
The opposite of love is not hate, but indifference, and so i learnt.
I'm indifferent. Taking his existence as that of any other dudes sitting on another table, as someone whom i could recognise, but doesn't matter to me anymore. I could still remember that night while i tried to talk to him after sparks ii, and realization hit me that things cannot go back to what it used to be.

[ 860. SCI Interview ]
Went down to have lunch with mabel and cindy today. Haha. We had cai fan at canteen 3 today, and true to what mabel said i really came out stinking of the zi cha smell after eating in that air conditioned place. Nonetheless, i went a tad too early, so i ended up waiting. And waiting. And finally. The test.
Like last year, there's a written test component. Last year's topic was on this teenage boy from a neighbourhood school dating this top school girl. This year was slightly better. They gave us a choice! I wrote the one about how anonymous online discussion forums either benefitted or harmed the singapore society. I guess it was easier to write and argue than the extent of singapore idol's media coverage. Nonetheless, they had an added section: this current affairs mcq test. Only ten questions. Online, not that hard, yet some are tricky.
Then come the interview. Thank you mabel! Haha. Thank god i called her to ease my nerves just before my interview. And also to the CS students there who were chit chatting with us. Haha. A talkative bunch though, quite needless to say why they ended up as students. Lolx. Anyway, the interview was just so much easier to handle this year! At least i found my voice, and apart from screwing up pronouncing "two thousand and six" into "thwo tousand and sthix", i guess everything else went better than expect. Showed my videos, my photos, and guess i walkedo ut confident. =)
Ok, there's this thing that irks me. You know how some internet windows are programmed to pop in your face just as you are typing something else on another window. They are DARN irritating. |

[ 858. CO Parade ]
After a darn long year they decided to have CO parade today. And that marks my 'chou shi' (read: siasuey experience) escapades as well.
Yesterday got rehearsal. I conveniently forgotten about it until my encik called and screamed (in a friendly manner) over the phone that i'm late. Oh great. And thank goodness rsm was in a good mood. So in short, this was what we are supposed to do when called:
1) sedia ourselves, 2) shout 'yes sir!', 3) then march up to CO. 4) Salute first, 5) receive award, 6) shake hand, 7) salute, 8) march off.
Yesterday went well. Guess what happened today? All went well... until... I FORGOTTEN TO SALUTE BEFORE DOING A RIGHT TURN MARCHING OFF!!!!!! That's not the best part. It LOOKED like CO has to salute me first before i could get my act together and hurry to salute him!!! SO SIA SUEY!!!

[ 857. Hospital ]
Once again i visited my granny at ttsh yesterday with mom. Got there at about noon, and granny was just having her lunch. Mom having a perpetual backache decided to go and pay the doctors a visit at the a&e. Which, was something that i personally didn't like. Because it's a sunday and it's a&e.
Anyway. So that was the start of my 4 hour wait for mom. You know, if i had a driving license i'd have drove off and came back and picked her up later. But never mind. I got so bored sitting by my granny's bedside and watching her sleep, i went to walk around in the mini-shopping area i level one. Browsed through magazines in 7-eleven shamelessly (and extensively), had a little snack at polar cakes & puffs. Was even half tempted to go into starbucks and rot, but lucky for my wallet i didn't. Checking out the snack machines on the tenth and twlveth floor was next on the list. And goodness gracious me. They serve all the yucky, fattening, unhealthy snacks!! Especially when they are stationed at the lobby of the wards... ummms. Uh-uh, that's a big boo boo for the patients.
Nonetheless. This got me thinking. You know how i love to think when i'm too bored. Yeah. I'm really restless. And impatient when i'm spending time apparently waiting for nothing. The last time this happened was when i waited 4 hours at an mrt station for marcus poh to lend me money. And damn him, he didn't turn up. Nonetheless. Yes. I was thinking. Thinking about how restless i can get. Only if i can have some pen and paper and draft out my invite list for my 21 birthday celebrations. Er... A bit too early for that? Lolx. But anyway. I was just bored la.
And yes. I didn't forget. I still have two things to plan for. The genting trip. The 1s2 chalet. |

[ 854. Tired ]
This entire week was an exercise week. I'm tired out, even though i only manned a couple of shifts of base signals.
As i'm typing this, i'm praying hard that my computer won't shut down by itself, though bro told me that it didn't occur just now. Nonetheless, whatever la huh.
Ok, the tiredness was because i took the up-to-midnight shift. Then i spent another couple of hours talking to eric. And this morning i was rudely woken up by my own irritating handphone ringtone, but thankfully it wasn't anyone irritating. Haha. It was s2. He's going to buy breakfast. And he bought me some. =) Haha. MacDonalds! Hahaha.
Nonetheless. Basically rotted the day away. Apart from actively siamming the new encik, I spent half the other time with s2, yakking away or playing bejewelled on bso's laptop. Think that poor soul still dunno that i've installed the game on his laptop. Hahaha.
Talking about that encik. Really feel like bitching about him today. that bugger. BUGGER. How i wish wo benson is still around. This wo wang, simply thinks that he's king around. He stepped on eric's toe the first few days by asking him to make coffee for him. Hellooo... eric's the most WRONG person you can get to be your coffee boy... haha... Anyway. Yeah, then he tries to be friendly to everyone. Patting everyone's back, giving a rub or squeeze on our necks, and you'd think we're like dogs being patted. Whatever. I don't give a damn now even if someone comes up and say there's not such word as 'patted'. You get my idea. And YES. he loves to TALK. to anyone, or even to himself. We've see countless number of times he'll just think out loud... "oh this is good... everything's in place! i'm good to go!..." yada yada yada. You get the drift. It's SCARY ok. Especially his mock laughters. His fake hahahahs. Whatever. He's FREAKY. Argh. I've tried to be diplomatic initially, avoiding having one to one contact with him and such. But now i guess i made it more plai that i don't really want to have anything much to do with him. Urgh.
Oh, i got this high achiever award of the month thing. Yes, it's like a runner-up award to the best serviceman of the month award. And i'm the second guy in signals to get it during bso's reign. And last night me and eric were talking about it. About how come we seems to do so much yet not many of us gets it. In fact, none of us got the best serviceman of the month award. Lolx. The most common argument by any commander will be that our signallers bo tua bo suey. Sad, it's true. We don't talk to bso the way you talk to your bmt pc. We don't talk to sgt chua the way you talk to your bmt ps. I guess we got a bit too friendly. TOO friendly as a matter of fact. You don't go ktv with your pc and chiong with him as well. You don't scold your pc kanasai during office hours. You don't argue with your ps about offs and such. You don't dictate what time to come back during half day offs and out details. We do just all that. Lolx. We call it being friendly and chummy with our bosses. Other commanders call it plain rude. But they can't fault us apart from that. We are wickedly efficient, we are highly bitchy and we are downright shrewd. That's how we work, and that's how signals get things work. We are pretty easy to please too. Trust us. And stop hating us just because we are not organic to the ada family. Yes.
Ok, i gotta go soon. Need to visit granny in the hospital. |

Hmmm. Haha. Yeah. I'm gonna talk about myself. MY species. Muahahaha. Today while the trio were walking from tangs to centrepoint, i was commenting to lta boh that some guys (like me) dunno how to gauge if a girl was 'fat' or 'thin' or had a perfect figure. She argued otherwise, saying that gals are always under the scrutiny of guys regarding their figure and mannerisms. THen went on the say that gals diet and work their guts out to obtain the perfect figure that guys want, whereas guys don't even work half as hard to obtain a decent figure. True la... i think more ladies are physically attractive as compared to guys locally. She was commenting that guys should stop procrastinating and giving excuses like "oh i'm a guy so it doesn't matter" and start working on themselves too before all the gals decides to remain single for life. Haha.
Yesterday on radio there was this debate between the djs, if which gender would be more rational in a relationship? Of course, they sided their own respective gender la. But i guess it really depends, depends on who wear the pants in the relationship. And it's possible for any party to be the rational one, or even for the relationship to work on a solely emotional basis. I know of couples who breaks and patches on every hoo-haa that occurs, but of course many could have seen that it was just another puppy love, lonely people needing company, that's that. But at the end of the day... i guess both sides have to possess a balance of their rational and emotional sides... it's too tiring for anyone to wear only one mask all the time. Yeah.
Aye aye. I'm not a lonely man. lalalala. I only want my monkey with me everyday. Haha.

So sad. Can't even find a decent half litre of boiled water in the house, so had to resort to drinking tap water. Tsk tsk. Somehow i'll always go into this mini mad rush each time i get home. Haha. To unpack my bag in double quick time, pack up my room (cuz most of the time by default it would be somewhat messed up by either bros or dad), take my washed clothes from the balcony, bathe and throw all dirty laundry into the washing machine, set up laptop / computer, then get a drink and settle down in front of the computer within like fifteen minutes. What a freak right? Hahahaha.
Ok, i'm like so tired. Tired from all the laughters i've inherited from derek and enghow as they poked at each other (both literally and figuratively) from dinner till they parted, tired from rushing from one place to another, tired from all other stuff. Yawnz. Met lta boh for dinner last night and shopped around at northpoint for her 'four golds', only to find her band of brothers dvds. Gosh and she blew hundred bucks on that. Wow. Walked with her back to khatib, while engaging in a really long talk, somewhat a good mix of crap and stories. Guess i always enjoy those kind of one-on-one chats. =) The poor me reached home nearing midnight, only having to wake up at like 0600 the next day so i could make it to the civil service college over at bouna vista for my psychometric test, administered by MHA scholarship dept. Well well well. The day certainly didn't start of well: Boo boo number 1: i left my 11b in camp, so i brought my passport. The lady was surprised. Bonus to this: they even got my ic number wrong... i wonder if they got the right person to come. Hahaha. boo boo number 2: it was a combined testing by a few ministries, so i took the wrong instructions and set on the wrong table. Boo boo number 3: I brought a pencil with no pencil lead. Argh, what else could go wrong. Heh. But anyway... the test was... familiar. Took it before at commandos selection test about 18 months back. Yeah. But the subsequent parts were kinda challenging, especially the english part. Think i haven't been doing comprehensions for a long time. Hahahaha. =p
Then i rushed down to orchard to meet lta boh and eric. Walked around with them to look fer some stuff, before i settled down at mac in the late afternoon, asking eric to help me send 80mb worth of photos to brian. That nice chap actually helped me to wait till the send is over, even as i went to attend service... awww... so nice of him. Hehehe. Then we went to this painting shop, where we saw a sale. Stumbled across this frame for only 20 bucks, and it was really a steal. Gave s3 a call to describe the frame, and then we just bought it lo.
Had dinner with the cg at the OA bakery/caf over at killiney road. And i saw lta boh's coursemate, benson, there. Hahaha. What a small world. And i only got to know benson a couple of days ago when he and lta boh came back to adsd to veh comd 2 v200s back to afs. Hahaha. What a small world.

Oh yes, i got up pretty late today, so late that i had to cancel plans to make a trip down to bras basah. Anyway, i dropped by orchard library to return some books before (supposingly) heading towards istana park to meet the cg. Well, decided to drop by cineleisure to draw some money when i saw sharon au and fiona xie doing a roadshow for m1. Hahaha. I've seen both of them in person before, especially sharon au because she was doing the ndp last year. Nonetheless, i must say that fiona xie really look sooo much better than i thought... gee, to think that all along i thought she looked pretty average. Haha. I was dead wrong.
Too bad didn't take any photos. I was thinking if i should.
Well, service was great... haha. pretty surprised that ps ben was preaching today. Think i tried focusing today la. Haha. but was too tired and my mind drifted a little, only to hit back earth when i realized i wrote nothing more than a line for the second point. Oooops... Aye aye. but sometimes i'm really amazed at how they actually can illustrate one entire point by simply using an example. Yeah. Like a story or a testimony... they will then draw the relevant points or lessons from the story to support the point. God really has unique ways to prove his point at times... haha. ;)
While going home just now with joseph, hongyao, sengkim and derek, think sengkim and i suanned derek incessantly to a considerably horrible extent... haha... everything from his much needed runs to the like-uncle-like-nephew insults and whatnots... haha. Eh, think this guy seemed to take it pretty well nowadays... no la, doesn't mean we'll go on suanning him la... (though i didn't guarantee that it'll stop... lolx) but anyway, jokes aside, it's a pity that tom and bo couldn't stay for dinner... would have enjoyed their company so much better. Have been exchanging some messages with tom throughout the week... haha... oughta thank God for sending such a great listening 'ear' lor. you know me... like to whine and such... haha... but ok la. i didn't do that so much thru smses. really. hehe.

Rest. TV. Milo. Soup.
I'm now in that better frame of mind to blog. Guess i've been too tired today to even think coherently, let alone communicate effectively. Clocking less than 10 hours of sleep in 3 days, i've landed myself a reasonable amount of sleep debt for me to snooze through the entire tomorrow. Well, i shan't for the sake of service (and God) anyway.
I guess i have much to thank God for this week. For giving me such an eventful week to occupy myself with. For never allowing me to feel lonely. For blessing me with wonderful friends. For the platoon. For the caregroup. For myself. =)
Yes, i'm pretty beat. And pretty objectional to certain issues (e.g. felix smooching saga) and worried for more arrows (e.g. s3's arrow today), but i'm staying strong. yeah. ~ |

Aye aye. It's time for my super long entry once again. Before you thought i disappeared into thin air and start celebrating about my disappearance... haha, nah, i didn't disappear. I merely vanished. Lolx. hehe... ok, seriously, the home computer was supposedly repaired, but was struck by a virus/worm/trojan/whatever almost immediately and causes it to shut off unexpectedly every time. So anyway, i gave up trying to blog. You know the agony of thinking of what to retype each time the com just blank out on you... yeah, i was so full of angst and frustration.
Ok, so i didn't blog for the entire week. Supposed to mean that i had a very eventful week, according to some blog critics. Ok ok ok, i did have some kind of a fun week. Wednesday was eric's birthday, so.......
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ERIC!!!

Ah craaap.
Ok, we went clubbing. The poor me went alone, cuz someone decided to mug for exams held 2 months later. So well, the new me decided that i could handle the aloofness of going alone, only to find out that the entire event was more enjoyable than i actually thought. I met eric at orchard to go down together to zouk. That poor boy, had 2 ladies who conveniently flew his C130s in favour of books books books and books. (sounds familiar eh?) And then, he wanted to go home. But of course, he knew better than to do that. We got into phuture pretty early, so we were just lazing around with those who were already there: darren, vincent and etc. Felix got his gal there, and for the first half of the night, they were trying to convince her mom that she was just having an innocent stayover at a classmate's place; and for the other half, smooching with felix with the audience of the entire signal platoon. Aaron brought another friend which we were desperately trying to get in. Bouncers nowadays seems to be so much brighter, they can match IDs with faces! But at the end of the day she simply went home after 2 failed attempts la. All together, we opened two bottles of jack daniels black label, together with about 14 jugs and vodkas and the likes. Terry brought 2 flamin' lamborghinis, one for himself and another for eric as a gift. And you know those usual guessing games and the lamborghini eventually got our dear birthday boy dead drunk, and he was happily singing while darren and adam helped him to the prata stall for post-clubbing supper.
Last night merv came over to pick me up for supper with laisan shufen and jasmine. We sped over to ntu to pick those gals up, but not without certain hassles by the stupid security guard. Only spoil my photo that i've so beautifully taken. Tsk tsk. We wanted prata from the stall nearby nus, and we were like pathetically trying to orientate our way there. First we had problems going to nus. Then we had problems locating the stall. We took every turn in clementi almost twice before hitting nus, and even in nus, we circled the campus twice before realising that the stall was on the OUTSIDE of nus! omg... so sia suey lor. hahaha. The prata is actually not as nice as i hoped it could be, and the reigning one (to me) is still the one that rsm brought me to at khatib. Haha. too bad, it only opens in the morning. Yeah.
We went to raid shufen & laisan's bunk dorm... i was running a runny nose by that time, and those sweet girls actually got me hot honey lemon to drink together with a couple of panadol tablets... so nice of them. I was desperately trying to blog last night, and i forgotten to COPY my blog and paste it else where first before running into a publishing error. Dammitdammitdammitdammitdamiit!!!! Anyway, i was like half distracted by those gals trying to irritate someone and vice versa... Hahaha... and we watched a few happy tree friends clips (those sick and sadist bastards) before we head home and i booked in with panda eyes this morning.
Oh yes. I've got some news. I'll be attached to ocs for overseas training in taiwan from 31st may to 19th june. I'm looking forward to it. ;)
And now, i still look like a panda. Ouch. |
