Off to tekong..

2 more hours before i'm leaving house for tekong..

To those i care and those who care for me:
Take care of yourself while I'm away! =) Anything you may always sms me. I'll reply to you as soon as i got the time. See you guys 2.5 weeks later!

To my friend who wrote a "love letter" for me (you should know who you are):
The message above is for you too. Apart from that, just wanna say, don be too pessimistic over 2009. You've gotta be more confident of the things which you are capable of doing, having more confident of the things which you think you may not do it. Sometimes, if you don't try, you'll never get to know that you have the ability to overcome certain things. Strive hard to achieve all that you can this year. Mug hard and before you know, 2009 would be over soon. Trust me.. its a tiring year, you've gotta hang on, keep telling yourself you can do it! What you lack is the confidence and the belief in yourself! JIA YOU!! =) Take care!

Alright peeps! cya in 2.5 weeks time. Preben says coy O is packing up. Maybe i'll be his neighbour! lolx. Kinda nervous, emo etc etc. Don worry! I'll miss you all! =)

Not forgetting those who sent me all the well wishes. Thanks.
-Wei shan-Yan ting-Kathy-Ng Li-Preben-Karen-Wing Kiong- Jia Xin-Wei Lun aka Mary-Yan De-Desiree-Eugene-

(Hope i didn't miss out anyone. Thanks to those who wished me well)

And thanks to my perhaps platoon/company mate, Recruit Neo, for everything that you've done!

The 2 days before NS

MON:

Went out with my parents today. More of accompanying them plus going to buy some stuff for enlistment too.

They drove me to RS to collect my NYAA cert. It has been i long time since i last went back. Most things seem to have changed. Many teachers left. Met Mdm Sarojini though. =)

After collecting my cert, I went straight to NP room.. Something which i always do. I miss NP and I'll always miss NP. =) Saw a few "used to be" juniors outside NP room. THEY CAN RECOGNISE ME!! lolx. They are sec 4 now.. so called Cadet Leaders. Time flies, I'm old.

Saw this at the General office earlier on. Was SHOCKED!



We got GOLD for UOPA 2007. Though its 2007, but I still have that sense of achievement in me. Because back then when i was still in NP, I always hoped that our unit could be a Gold unit. To be amongst those strict units which always get Gold. But I know, our unit would be different. =) For we treat cadets as humans! haha. Not that serious though.

I'm kinda jealous of the batch after us. Having achieve UOPA Gold and having 3 cadets awarded SPF badge just because they allow more cadets to be given this award. I'm sure i (as well as some others) would be able to get that badge (which i had always wanted) if i'm born a year later. I'm jealous and envious!

Saw this at NP notice board. Something very familiar.

Those in NP would know..

I went somewhere later. Wanted to look for something which i always wanted to see. It left me disappointed though.

Certain things shall be kept in my heart (Perhaps forever)

Kept thinking about that issue while walking to CWP.

Perhaps... perhaps if i have not made the decision i made during sec1, I would have "gotten" what i want.

Awards and recognitions are just BONUS. What matters is the process..

I'm lying to myself.

Like it or not, such some "bonus" are important to me.

I know you all wont understand what i'm writing. I could only think of 1 person who may guess it.. =) Its not a "her".

Went JP for dinner. Sort of a "farewell" dinner.

NL, YT, Mel, ZY, JX, Kar, WK and me. 8 of us to New York New York.

This is what i ate. Its spicy lor! Didn't managed to finish. Cos i cant cont eating! lolx

Had dessert later which was funny.

Imagine having realised my Apple Crepe has been WK's Pineapple Crepe only after we have eaten halfway through? lolx.

Saw some baked bean look-a-like raisins. So we playfully called for a waitress to ask.

Me: Excuse me, can I know what is this? (pointing to the raisin)

Waitress: (stunned face... stunned for quite long man! lolx.)

Me: Nvm nvm, its ok.

I din really expect her to come back later on to say..

Waitress: Sir, that is raisins!

Haha. The whole table laughed. But seriously, I'm impressed as much as I'm shocked.

That [(11,7)(0,1)(3,6)(10,9)(6,3)(7,7)] [(3,4)(4,5)(6,12)(5,7)] is cute! lolx.

Hey Lao Dao. Thats a big clue to your free meal ya?

Anyways, i really enjoyed myself yesterday. Thanks to all! It was with you all that I can forget the unhappy stuff!

Did something damn stupid last night which made me look stupid!

I [(1,2)(20,1)(10,10)] myself while [(11,8)(4,4)(1,0)(11,11)(2,7)(7,7)(3,4)]!!

Not exactly [(1,2)(20,1)(10,10)] though.

Was bleeding the whole night. Had to hold a tissue and sleep! Later to pek chek then i just use a masking tape to tape a small tissue to my face and sleep! It looks stupid i know. =p

TODAY:

Went swimming with WK and EUG. Was shocked that mum allowed me to go. Dad was "nagging" though.. actually more of asking me to be careful lahz.

Dad to me: 小心一点。有谁跟你一起游？有旁边就好，不要游在中间..........(it went on and on)

Mum to dad: Haiya. there got "bao an ren yuan" de lahz!

I laugh till siao.. Isn't that jiu shen yuan? lolx.

Was extremely demoralised after i cant complete 50m! To have realised that you cant swim 50m only on the day before your enlistment... the feeling sucks!

After much short distance swimming i managed to swim 50m!! That's my first 50m of 18 years! lolx.

Was breathless after that though.

Sometimes, i dont exactly know if i should be greatful for how much my parents protect me, or "blame" them for "over protecting" me. Its "all for your own good" i guess.

Went to collect my specs. Shall post the pics next time.

TRIED to pack my stuff. I cant find the HP that i'm gonna bring in! WTH!

Something came to my mind while i'm on the bus to swimming this morning...

我曾经因为你而失去了很多。
现在，我因为失去你而得到了许多。

Complain!

My dad planning for a cruise trip during the weekend before CNY WITHOUT ME!!

ARGH!

SOB SOB!

=(

NEW CODE!

Haiz. Is my code really that easy to decode?

MEL AND YT!! TRY THIS!

Clue: Fruit

Code: 11,12 1,0 10,10 2,3 13,5 10,3 2,3 6,6 7,8 7,7

Haha. You sure cant decode liao. =) This code kinda stupid though.

3 days and counting down... =)

"BEEP!"

That marks the unofficial first day of my start to adulthood yesterday.

The familiar yet unfamiliar sound.

ITS EXPENSIVE! lol.

Woke up yesterday at 7.40 plus. Extremely early! Only slept for 2 plus hours.

Partly because i'm too hot and partly because those stupid mosquitoes gave me lots of lovebites!

My sis din kena any. WTH. The stupid "suckers" only drink blood from people who do not cover their legs with blanket. My sis was fully covered!

Had a very special cum wierd craving when i woke up. I WANT TO DRINK COLD CRYSANTHAMUM DRINK! lolx. I walked to kitchen and had my COLD crysanthamum drink before going back to sleep. But failed to.

My first time having a craving for anything. I guess there'll be more cravings next time. lolx.

Mum say... Since you cant sleep, go breakfast with us.

I agreed. Time to spend more time with them. Plus! they'll drive me to RP! I can save on my bus fare! lolx.

Had 2 bowls of porridge. Bloated like siao! lolx. My dad "thinks too highly" of me. Or rather my stomach.

When RP for ping pong and badminton as usual. Usual thing. Nothing much to say.

Went Long John Silver for dinner thereafter. Was asking ZX about certain stuff about him and his gf. Kinda paused and think about things in the past. (I'm not emo.)

Romantic things i did? many. lolx.

I read on "I weekly" that the horoscope that will be the best husband is Aquarius. Kinda "announce" it to my whole family immediately after reading it. Its rather accurate i think. (As in the description that mention! I'm not saying that i'll be the best! ) Quite reflecting of my dad. He's also aquarius.

Went shopping with ZH today. Not exactly shopping. Merely went to CWP to buy some army stuff before going KFC for lunch. Then went library to learn some knots. I finally knew how to tie sheetband. Have forgotten it long ago. I'm too ashame to say that i've forgotten how to tie a knot that helps us win 4th position for the Campcraft Comp.

Thats Sheetbend..

Double Sheetbend..

And this is what i learn today. The S knot. Same function as the fisherman knot, but its nicer and stronger.

When home at 3. Borrowed some army books too. Some tips that they give seems useful. =)

Mum brought me to go make my specs. $100 bucks! Ouch! lolx. Its nice though. Shall post a pic of it when i recieve it on Tues (just in time for army)

Went home and helped mum to mop the floor plus kitchen. Haven't been helping her much since i entered JC. Used to do so in the past though. I told mum she's my Sergeant at home. Always wanna "tekan" me. LOLX.

Mahjong session at night. Just ended. Won $4. LOLX! Its quite an "ok" amount, considering we only played 50 cents and $1. =-)

Thats all bah. Shall wake up early tml.. if i can.

Shall write about the horoscope thing that i read next time when i got the time.




Zhong Hao "made me understand" the difference between my sec sch friends and my JC friends (not everyone though). Its all about TRUST.

Updates on my hols.

Alright.. so here comes the long long update of dec.. from class chalet till today?? lolx. I realised.. the longer i drag on, th more things i gotta blog about and the more i don feel like updating the past anymore. lolx

21 Dec 2008

Was supposed to meet up with the rest in the morning to buy stuff for our chalet de BBQ. But made up my mind to give it a miss just because i'm pissed off with the msg that was relayed down. Instead decided to go straight to Kallang to meet the rest for the soccer match instead.

The rest of them were still at Pasir Ris waiting for bus when i reach Kallang. Kinda expected that though. Went to ask if i could buy tickets for the rest too. Surprisingly, the person allowed me to buy 15 Student Tickets. (Which i later regretted helping them buy first)

So here it is.. AFF Suzuki Cup Semi Finals between Singapore and Vietnam. =) This is my first time watching a live soccer match of such scale i think.

Singapore lost the game. It was really very sad that Singapore lost man, considering that they play pretty well that day. But a simple counter attack by Vietnam ends the campaign for Singapore. I was still thinking of going for the Finals should Singapore win the match man.

Anyway, Vietnam went on to win the Suzuki Cup. I think the awards given out was crappy man. Vietnam's goal keeper got the MVP award. WTH. Thailand was awarded the Fair play award. Fair play? Like real.

Ok.. enough of the match.

Went back to chalet and went on with night cycling.

I don't know exactly how far we managed to cycle that night. But i just know.. the route is very very long. We cycled from 12.30 till 4 plus near 5 before having breakfast at mac and cycled back to chalet again from 6 (if i'm not wrong) till 9 plus.

Though the whole cycling was tiring, and we met up some problems with some of the bikes, but i must say.. I really enjoyed the ride to the Mac for breakfast. Really. And yes.. its only the trip to Mac and not the return trip.

The trip to Mac was just something which i will rmb forever. Really. I told Eugene that its the only event in these 2 years that was sucessful. Of cos the first class outing to Sentosa was fun too. But at least, for that night, i know that there's at least something that can unite the girls and guys from our class. There's something that both can do together and both would enjoy and both would not quarrel. =)

Its a real pity that noone brought their camera for night cycling.

The return trip was horrible. I shall not elaborate more. All i wanna say is that, I saw through some people de personalities.

22 Dec 2008

2nd day of chalet. Had BBQ at night. I appreciate those who took the initiative to start up the fire (esp WK) and the girls who helped out with the food stuff. For the rest who did not help out much and kept complaining/asking if there's any food to eat, i don really know what to say, but i just wonder why such people exist.

Caught a little of the nonya show before playing truth or dare with the whole class. Was fun too. =)

And of cos.. there were forfeit to the game too.. lolx

After which we played the game which QY introduced. Its some stupid game, but its fun, even though my right leg was red after that.

23 Dec 2008
Din manage to sleep that night. Went out to a near-by coffee shop with Eugene, WW, YT and mel to watch the soccer match between Chelsea and Everton. Only managed to watch the first half, cos we'll too tired.. or sleepy rather. lolx.

Was extremely pissed off in the morning. I've never been so pissed off in front of the class before. I guess everything that happens during the last few days just pile up. Started with night cycling, then that person's attitude during BBQ and morning time and the conversation they had with WK just makes me fed up.

26 Dec 2008

After a whole night of cycling during chalet, i realised my left leg, which was injured initially was full of blue blacks! lolx. My mum says its because of the cycling.

Looks like a rotten leg to me.. lolx.

Anyway, went back to the sin seh again. This time round another person draw blood out. Yes, AGAIN!! And he draw blood out from 3 different parts of my leg!! The blood flowed this time round. Thanks to the vege that my mum has been forcing me to eat. The blood is kinda disgusting actually. Din managed to take any pics though.

27 Dec 2008

Rotting a home today. Was merely playing PSP the whole day. lolx.

Went out for dinner today. Celebrated my grandma's 67th birthday.

29 Dec 2008

The class had dinner. Was meant as a farewell dinner for the guys who are going to NS soon. I decided not to go. I guess i'm tired of the guys in my class. Ok, i know its a sweeping statement. There's some which i hope to avoid and there's some who can truely be real buddies with.

When Mer house to play ping pong. The guys were there playing street soccer with S21. I avoided them. Din even went to say hello. Went straight to play ping pong with YT and JX.

30 Dec 2008

4/6 class gathering at YD house. It was great getting to meet up with the rest. There were those who i have not met for 2 full years. lolx.

Though the cliques still exist and though i did not manage to talk to every single one, but i think having a gathering is still better than none. At least i get to meet up with those who are significant to me.

Initially wanted to meet up earlier at 12 noon for lunch at cwp before going over to YD house at 2pm to help out. Haha. Luckily both WL and ZH can't make it for lunch! Cos i only manage to wake up at 12.45pm. lolx. Went to Admiralty MRT station to meet WL before going over to YD house. Din manage to help him out though. =p

Slack awhile at his home before going to play street soccer. I din play. Din wanna injure my leg again. Just see them play, though i'm tempted to join.

Looking forward to the next gathering.. If theres any..

The "rivals": Man U me, Arsenal WL, England YD. A pity that ZH wasn't wearing any jersey. PS: He's the one wearing the cap in the 2nd pic above.

31 Dec 2008

Badminton and ping pong at RP today with YT and her friends, Asta and friend, JX ,HT,NG and WC.

I guess i'm gonna miss these badmin and ping pong sessions.

Din go for any countdown party this year. Partly because there's noone to go with, partly because i'm not in the mood too. But this year's countdown is definitely a better one for me then the past 2 years, for the past 2 countdown sucks. (if you know what i mean)

Thats all for the updates. Merely 5 days left before i go "overseas". I'm optimistic aren't I?

I have to spend these last few days wisely.. i must.

2 Jan: Badmin and ping pong at rp again

3 Jan: Go shopping with ZH for NS Stuff.

4Jan: Guess i'm going for the "many course" and intensive dinner with my parents. Though i don like Sunday dinners, i guess its the only way i could spend more time with them.

5Jan: Perhaps going for Sakura with my sis and mum. Was thinking of going back RS to take my NYAA cert. Outing with the "rivals" too?

6Jan: Currently empty. Hope to have dinner with my family. =)

7Jan: Sayonara~

Like what Eugene said... Its all planned out after that... =)

New Year 2009!

Happy New Year!! Ok, i know its kinda retard to post such new year greetings at these hour but i'm just lazy plus no time to do such thing last night (or rather this morning.) =)

Anyway... To all those who I love/care, and to all those who care for/love me...

" I hope that you guys will have a wonderful 2009, a year that will hopefully be much more better than 2008. May all your wishes/hopes/dreams come true this year. Stay cool, stay hip, stay happy, stay health and stay (whatever good words that can fit you) ! "

To a special group of people who have showed me extra concern and extra care during some difficult times..

" 2008 have not been a good year for me. But I thank you people for being there for me, showing me that extra bit of concern, that extra bit of care. All that you all have done, is significant to me. In the coming year ahead (and beyond) i hope we'll stay close as we are and that if you people need any help, I'll be there for you all! =)"

New Year new hopes... I don really know what i really want in 2009. But i know if I'm really gonna think about it and to list it, it'll be alot.

So here i go... I'll just write down things that comes to my mind now.
1) Have an enjoyable BMT in tekong, and hopefully, make it to OCS. "I'll try make it to OCS for "you" k? Even though you din "request" for it. =) [the "you" here isn't someone you are thinking of]
2) Have a clear direction of where to go after army. Especially for things like what course to take, what university to go and stuf like that.
3) Hopefully.. I'll be able to get a scholarship. I really really hope this wish will come true. Simply because i don wanna be a financial burden to my parents and secondly i want a UNIQUE university experience.
4) More time to meet up with my friends. And to be close to friends who were once close to me.
5) I need my confidence back!
6) I hope to be a more knowledgeable, more mature, more sensible me by the end of 2009!
7) OH! Almost forget... I want straight "A"s for my A levels. =) With the exception of PW. =)

Ok bahz... 7 should be more than enough.. =)
