I will change again!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey all,
a quickie post for those interested in my uneventful life. The past few days have been excellent, not juz because I am on off and stuff but because I am with friends. Read the whole Tamuli series along with Demon Lord of Karanda. Yeah Eddings craving but hey its better than stoning around.
I finally passed my final theory test (Haha, 2 finals in 1 sentence). Considering I was rushing around the past few days, its not too bad.
See ya later!

Music: Numa Numa dance by Gary Broslma/O-Zone
Mood: Ecstatic!!!!!
Woohoo!!!!!! Never been so happy for so long. Thanks to Selene, Laura, Jonathan David, I am revitalised. Well, at least psychologically. Anyway, today was a blast.
First, the day started bad. Well, not so bad because i saw on the whiteboard that the book out timing was 1130. Which was fine, considering I was to meet Selene, Jonathan and Laura at 1330hrs. A 2 hour buffer zone which i could use to read books, settle my library books and enjoy a leisurely MRT train ride from Yew Tee to City Hall over the North-South Line.
Unfortunately, like many wars, campaigns and other military activities, something disrupted my plan and a delay of 1 hour and a half was imposed. I ended up getting into a taxi and rush to Orchard from which i took to city hall. I turned out, i was late by almost half an hour. Good thing i was wearing my sports shoes because i ran and ran. Looking back, a bystander would almost comment Pao Ba Hai Zhi (Run lah Kiddo! heh), mainly it would funny and secondly because i am pretty short and stocky like a kid. :)
The meeting place was Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf Raffles City. I met them, we went to Carl Junior's for a big meal. And big it was! The burger was like a double whopper! The fries and drink was huge. Drink were free-flow which meant free! I drank like 3 large cups which was about 3 litres?
After talking a whole lot of crap which is really nonsense to anyone eavesdropping (what is an eave and why when you drop it you can hear things you are not supposed to hear?) , we got a blueberry cheesecake for Laura as a birthday cake. Of course what we discussed was not crap or nonsense as least not to me. Small talk and innocent ribbing is part of friendship and helps to give me a reason to soldier on (heh soldier on). The cake was delicious, light, flavourful and of course expensive.
We then went to Bugis Street to shop. Due to my lack of sleep and obvious lack of shopping fitness, I was exhausted after 3 hours of shopping. I only bought 1 cap and a toy hammer for the girls to hit Jon with and not hurt him. Bugis Street was great because i saw lotsa chicks and even saw some of my men walking around.
Dinner was more sombre. A quick one at clementi with JD.
All in all, this day was well spent because it was spent with friends and not spent on military pursuits.

This week has been a sleepless week for me. So much to fret about: mainfests, logsheets, cleaning, admin, etc... The list is endless....
The battalion anniversary was fun but i felt it could have more time to play. Well, nothing is perfect

Thinking back on the fun times in school. All the times I had with Chris Chau, Ateet, 2E9. Was swimming, fooling around in army fatigues pretending to be SOF etc... I offended others but i had some much more fun. Studying hard, playing hard, praying hard, etc..... I miss the times but i guess life has ups and downs. I miss going home everyday at 2 pm and studying. Funny how the less i thought of studying, the better i got.
This could well be one of my last entries before my leap of faith into the unknown. November 25th is an important day

Its time we crash and burn!
Suddenly I feel so lost, so confused......
I dunno what the hell happened? I feel okay once I think of the upcoming events, suddenly my mood crashes and I feel sad....
I praying for a miracle to happen......

Musika: Cup OF Life by Ricky Martin
Mood: Stoned (someone threw a stone at me:) )
Do you really want it? Do you really want me to give you everything and then some. Thats the question I want to ask my superiors because despite my best efforts to work they still demand everything from me. I dun mind working so hard but I dun see how long this can go. High-key events after high-key events. I am tired. Need rest and time. Need space to develop my inner self. I love this nation but the way things are going my faith in my own nation is being shaken.
Why serve this nation? What has it done for me? Why bother with NS? The simple answer: this is my home, where i grew up, where my friends are, where my loved ones are. It is my duty as a man to protect my family if anything. NS is training for this. Many have be disillusioned by the army and its inner workings. Most cases it is juz a lack of facts thats causes this. I hope I am just uninformed about my nation's inner workings.
Yesterday, I went for the Armour WOSPEC Evening ( or Nite). Was a bundle of fun. The food was normal chinese resturant fare. The Emcee was very funny and was on the frequency his audience was on. He was very funny and captivated the audience. Drank my weight in Orange Crush and still felt thirsty. The whole thing was quite boring but at least we met our old frens and instructors.
On the way home, Enoch and I fell asleep. Enoch missed his stop and I nearly but thank God, I woke up in time.
Till the next update!

Music: Rasputin by Boney M
Mood: Moodish
Dun ask what moodish means. I feel like all kinds of moods. happy, sad, angry, excited, etc....
A quick blog entry. Presently, much has gone fine. Chris is studying for his Uni exams, Jon is working hard and the rest are enjoying their service to their nation. As for me, I am satisfied with my lot. Looking forward to December, no more Tests, outfields and only one duty! Yeah. Something to keep me going like the Duracell Bunny and the Energiser Battery guy.
The week has been good with lots of rest and less work.
Hope to hear from my friends soon

In the end, it doesnt really matter. An appropriate phrase to describe NS. Not that NS is a waste of time or anything but rather all that we did as training, all the effort we put in the keep things going does not matter when we ORD.
All of us will go our separate ways, till the next in camp training or the chance meeting on the street. Only memories and friendship remain of our time as soldiers.
Rather sad no? Sometimes we must dwell in sorrow to see happiness.
Had a good weekend. Spent my Parents Anniversary with them and more time with them this weekend than all the time in the past month combined.
The weeks are getting better and me happier. I love the way things are going. Hope Aussie Land will be as fun and happy for me!
