Happy Lunar New Year 2012

2012-01-24T15:57:00.002+08:00

Its the annual Lunar New Year where red colour banners and decorations can be seen almost everywhere in Singapore. Festive goodies and decorations are on sale to spice up this important occasion that is deemed important to the Chinese. It should be a period when we are excited about the crowded and lively ambience of the surrounding and of course, the ang bao money. Unfortnately, I didn't feel it this year. Perhaps I am too busy waiting for ORD or this year CNY is too early.

In anyway, yesterday visiting was one of the most boring and fruitless one. Sis Carol and Bro-in-law went overseas, aunt working and no food is served this year. Wow. The mood is not there. Its just not there.

Routine visits to 2 more places. I have a getaway. I realised that those KIDS, I mean kids below 6, is using IPHONE and IPAD proficiently. They are really expert in playing games! I was stunned by their flexibility in playing App games. Seriously, what generation is this? =X

Came back to wash up and go for Mahjong. Sigh was lucky to draw a full set of flowers and a full set of animals. Big fold waiting for cards, I didn't manage to game it. All thanks to luck that rob it away. WHAT POOR LUCK yesterday. I was slower than those desperate Kakis who just wanna GAME! But then again, who doesn't? Luckily my dad manage to recuperate and eventual win $. HENG AH!!!

Heading to aunt house soon! A boring Chu Er this year. Don't mind mounting actually! Sigh...

p.s: New year resolution- To have wealth(more), health and spend more time with family and friends. Not forgetting I am still searching for the right one =X ! Back to school this year. I hope I will be able to keep up the standard! =)

HAPPY LUNAR NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!! ENjoy this 15 days!

Happy 2012

2012-01-06T20:04:00.003+08:00

Entering 2012 with a bunch of friends that I am very comfortable interacting with. It was a peaceful countdown to 2012 in a pub filled with amicable staff and a nice ambience to chill out. It was a different feeling relative to the past years when I squeezed through thousands of people from all races. It was kinda hassle and the traffic flow was slow. Piss people off most of the time. Contrary to that, this time round was peaceful and relaxing. Not too bad.

Year 2011 was emotionally challenging for me. Not that I have a failed relationship, I have a terrible experience that I have never expected myself to face. I was quite ambitious at the beginning of 2011, thinking of completing a few tasks such achieving a driving license, giving tuition, maintaining healthy lifestyle by exercising constantly and searching the right one. Honestly, I have accomplish nothing.

Being marked by my superior is the major downfall for me this year. Never have I expected myself to be mocked, ridiculed and pin down by a person who is so a pain in the ass so to speak. Oh well, it was a nightmare for me in the month of Feb and March. I live in fear almost everyday in those months. ='(

I am thankful to have supportive friends around me to give me support. Just when I needed that, they were there to give me practical advises that are priceless to me. Thank you so much peers!!

Besides that, I calcualted that I did a total of 131 duties the whole year. Which means that I have distrupted 131 days of sleep. Oh man that's really bad! Sleep is the utmost important daily needs to me as a platform for healthy lifestyle. Tell me about it, really.

Frankly speaking, I think the only "achievement" I have got is having a set of straighter teeth. I have been going to the dentist diligently for that whole year, getting umpteen ulcers. That kind of pain is just too numb to be said.

Having been so negative, I pull theough the whole year. Bits and pieces of enjoyment and entertainment kept me going.

I celebrated my 21st Birthday last year. It was memorable and nice. Seriously a good memory that will stay with me for the rest of my life.

Oh lastly, I have spent lots of money in 2011! So many 21st birthday parties to attend. A few more this year. Tell me about it! ^^

Alright, this year, I wouldn't wanna cook up resolutions. I am afraid that it will turn out to be disappointment. All I want is a clear and focus aim to do well in NUS, to be happy, to know more people, to work to get more $ and going with the flow. That's all I yearn for mainly in 2012 =)

Again

2011-12-16T21:01:00.002+08:00

Its another post after a long halt of not posting post in blogger. Hmm am pretty missing those time blogging anything under the sun, ranging from personal experience to observations etc.

Have been leading a good 2 weeks of enjoyable camp life the last week of November and the first week of december. It is, and definitely is, the best 2 weeks in my whole duty days as an MP. It was memorable and nice.

Seeing people ORD from there, and deem as the closest batch, I feel very honoured and glad. A mini steamboat session before they go is sweet. What more a hot and juicy gossip to hear at 11pm. An epic moment indeed.

The sweetest thing that mother earth can provide me in that short duration of 2 weeks is the abundance of my favourite fruit, durian. This king of fruits is so nice with a potent bitter sweet taste that I adore very much in this fruit. I was spamming it the entire week until i had 4 major irritating ulcers!

Some personal issues like worrying about UNI(as usual) started to pinch me. Language was the major issue and also potential problems like making friends and the intensive workload. Tell me about it man!

Thats about it for now I guess. Too lazy to type. And I still love my iphone 4S, even though it was dropped on the floor 3 times and only once by myself. Thanks to careless friends! Yeah. Smack their ass!!

Xmas is around the corner. This year is one of the quietest year for xmas. I don see intensive xmas promotions going on. Probably I am ignorant this year. But I think its quite quiet. It has become a norm that people just couldnt be bother about it, apparently.

Hoping for a well-spent time with my friends this xmas. I really hope! =) Alright chaos!

Unpleasant week

2011-11-24T21:47:00.002+08:00

One of the most unpleasant week I have ever experience. Its more of mental torture and character problem. Other than the consistant mental tortune by just 1 incident, contrary to that, I am experiencing numerous ones.

Some are self driven, while some are just purely intimidating. I just can't believe that every single time I have got to go through down periods so suddenly.

Well, I have turn to a few friends to confide this taxing feeling. I was pretty much affected by it, ranging from sad, devastated, angry, disappointed, regretful, indifference etc.

I guess Stan is too ignorant in watching what he says recently, thereby affecting people around with his direct speech. I will try.

The self driven frustration is killing me on Monday. But after a talk to my close friends, I am fine now. I feel so much better and picked up now, continuing with my routine even though a known fact was perceived by me. I love this sentence " So what if that person is good at it, you still gonna do it"!!

Today seems to be a bad day for me. I am just disappointed with myself. I was an asshole, hurting people's feelings without thinking twice before saying. I am quite apologetic now.

With a huge ulcer staying underneath my tongue aggravate my temper. I am just too vex and frustrated to handle it.

I hope the rain will end soon....

Happy 21st Birthday to myself

2011-11-10T22:07:00.010+08:00

Phew, i breathe a sigh of relief. Finally its over. I mean my 21st birthday party. It took me a really long period of time to prepare man. 1 full month to prepare all these things tired me out. But its all worth it.

I was pretty reluctant to have a birthday party as I was afraid tat it might be too troublesome for me and also the irregular duty schedule. In the end, i took the plunge to book a chalet as I felt the need to have a memorable and fruitful 21st Birthday, since I didn't have any big ones for many years.

Pasir Ris Costa Sands resort was the place where I had my 21st Birthday party. It was really tiring preparing all the stuff randing from decorations, booking of chalet, catering, buying snacks etc. I put in effort in every single details, making sure I am on the right track. And I dare say, I am very very satisfied with the whole party =)

In the nutshell, on 5th Nov 2011, I was REALLY REALLY HAPPY that day. Its definiely a memorable birthday in my life and it will be in many years down the road. The decorations were FANTASTIC as most of the spots were nice enough to capture a shot. All thanks to myself and my cousin Sis Jo who were so selfless in assisting me in the deco. Thanks. I also wanna specially thank my PARENTS for the selfless act(omitted during speech), showering me with care and love till my next phase in life. I believe they will till as long as possible. Dad and Mum, thanks for moulding me into who I am today, cultivating values and character in me. I will give my very best and give the best to the both of u in future =)

My secondary school friends have been great, as always. They were very understanding that day and were supportive. I will never fail to turn to them whenever I need help on whatever problems I am facing. They never fail to give me practical and useful comments to assist me to the right track. Thank you so much! STAN will always remember you guys!

Next up, SRJCians. Even though we were seperated due to different academic standards in JC2. Even though we don't have the chance to meet often. All I wanna say is I REALLY CARE and LOVE every single one of you- Marcus, Kenny, Jack, Yoke Hung, Kenneth and Cheryl! You guys have been really nice to me, enduring my self-centered mindsets and nonsense. Thanks for treating me well and still cares about me. With that, I will remember u guys as long as I can. Your generosity towards me is felt. I just love all of you. All the best!!

Last but not the least, my friends in army. Wow this group is the largest group who attended my birthday. Without them, my party wouldn't have been more lively! The days in NS wouldn't be so meaningful, colourful and fruitful without u. Thanks for enduring my nonsense and compromising my flaws. I promise to stay in contact with u guys even after ORD! Wanna specially thank you for the effort in choosing my birthday present! Seriously, it was really thoughtful for all of u! THANKS a million guys!!

And that's how my 21st birthday was like. Best birthday ever so far.....

Its nearing

2011-10-28T21:03:00.002+08:00

Oh my god. I just realise that I have not been blogging for the past 3 weeks. It feels like 1-2 weeks only. Time really flies.

Anyway, I have been kinda busy with my 21st birthday celebration. Its like 1 more week and I will be celebrating my 21st! OMG! Time really flies!

I have reiterated twice about time passing too quickly. I felt that its like a blink and I am like 21 in a week time. I can remember very clearly about how naughty I was when I was young. How stubborn(now still) when someone tells me to do something that I don't like to do. How naive I was when I make stupid decisions.

I hope this key to adulthood is a beautiful, positive, adventurous, happy, lively and meaningful one. I hope to work towards my goals, work towards something that all along I have been dreaming. Most importantly, I hope to lead a happy life and stay healthy!

Hmm, many people have been asking what I want for this 21st. Although I have been saying friend's presence is the most important, I have some things that I actually hope to receive this 21st. Lets see..

A wallet that is made of GENUINE LEATHER! And a brand that is renowned in this market. The logo looks like a cow..Hmm u know...

Perhaps something to keep check of the time. Haha. Someone gave me this last bday. I want another colour that suits me more.! =)

KIEHLS! SOmething that can maintain my facial skin.

A good smelling liquid from body shop. Musky smell!

hmm, think thats about it. Honestly, I will accept anything graciously! Haha.

Shall stop here. Can't wait for my chalet next week! =)

2011-10-08T11:18:00.002+08:00

Had an awesome meet up with my darlings. It has been a while since we have meet up. I mean a planned meet up. Hmm, I am just wondering how often can we do this.

This week is relatively stressful to my poor brain as I have to crack my head to think of something that has all along been a fear to all my camp mates, including me of course. I left 1 more suggestion to be submitted. I was so unlucky to suggestion something that apparently wasn't good enough to be accepted. Most of them cleared their task. I felt insecure when I know mine was rejected. Went to submit 3 more on Wednesday. Hoping that I will be able to clear just one more. *cross fingers*

I was quite worried on Wednesday. Not worry about the task, not worrying about current life, not worrying about staying in etc. I was worried about myself not being able to survive uni in the next few years. My English is getting worse each day. I haven't been writing essays since 2009. Sigh. I seriously have to start soon. Doing such a simple task by doing a small-scale project can make me go heywire. What more uni stuff. Tell me about it man..

Next up, having headache about what theme should I set on my upcoming 21st birthday. Eventually, I decided not to have any themes as it would be so much easier to plan. Catering and cake selection makes it vexing for me as I am occupied with busy schedule. Probably will do it asap by next tuesday as I applied leave. Overall, still feeling not that bad as I still have time till 5 Nov.

Alright, meeting my JC friends. Wedding dinner to attend tonight. Thats for now...

Lost

2011-09-29T21:43:00.002+08:00

LOST MY WATCH.

Went to make a replacement for my watch battery. I make replacements for 2 watches. And then when i reach home, I couldn't find one of the watches that i have brought to replace battery. I just couldnt find that black watch. Others were all present.. WTF..

I HATE MYSELF for losing things.... =(

Another week

2011-09-25T21:15:00.002+08:00

Another tiring week has passed. A mixture of happy and sad happenings for this week. I am still positive about it.

ANyway, tiring duty again. Double job and wasting our energy. Again, i don't think we are tobe blamed. Haha...

Booked my 21st birthday party chalet. Its at PASIR RIS COSTA SANDS. The one that Yaya and Rups celebrated their 21st as well. I was kinda desperate to book a chalet. Hence, i booked it on Tuesday. All of the other better ones or cheaper ones were fully booked. What a luck man! Well, better than nothing. Now on my way to prepare for my 21st. Can't wait!

Some mishaps happened on Thursday. I am very shock by that comeback. Seriously.. Sigh. Just don't wish to say it here...

Alright, got togo. Combat Shoot this coming tuesday. Hope i will get Marksman.. So that i can recuperate some money that is drained into the Chalet. LOL!!!

Bye.....

Unexpected rejection

2011-09-22T22:10:00.003+08:00

I was quite prepared for it. It was a fiasco for no reason. It was an attempt not by me. I was rejected.

I tried my best to suit the taste. Perhaps I was too frank and it just did not go smoothly. Nevertheless, I don't owe anyone such a bad way to reject people.

I have put in all effort to get something I wanted, quite badly. Come to think of it, its fruitless leads. What a bad day...

I am ok with rejection, but not by the fact that you are threaten by a message that scary yet intimidating. I am not oblige to. Thanks for screwing my day, BAST***!!!!!

Busy September

2011-09-11T18:22:00.004+08:00

Its another post right now and as usual, I am going to say that I am tired, again. Its the same old feeling whenever i am at home on a dismount day using computer. Perhaps its the lazy feeling the triggers the lethargy when I am on my bed.

Ever since I am back from my family trip, things have not gone well. Having to survive through an post-holiday blues for about a week ain't easy. And thats not all. Knowing about the unfavourable duty this month dampens my morale to a new level low. Wow, well done man my unit.

This week has been tough. It seems like 2 weeks plus. Just because of their miscommunication, just because of the wrong timing in shifting of stuffs, we have to do double job. In addition, that object is screaming and yelling like there's no tmr, making our job even tougher. Wow, right now, its like every single thing its our fault.

In the week, I heard umpteen of shoutings and stuffs that are nonsensical. I remember very clearly that i was awaken by the his piercing voice a few days back, telling my leaders off without any mercy. What more, a dubious lecture to the rest on how much he cares for us etc. I am really wondering how the hell did he manage to swing his mood 180 degrees in just a split 5minutes. Well done man. I think I should fetch him a big trophy.

The duty right now is seriously like staying in hell. Right now, I can't even catch a full 1 hr rest in the day. All I do was to stay under the hot sun to sun bath, making my tan line so ugly. After which, no rest. Is either u go collect ur lunch or open gate for people, whom is so unwise to walk in and out without a reason in mind. Hey hello, is it that funny?

Yesterday, its obviously a Saturday. I thought I will make full good use of it to rest. No I was wrong. I was seriously astounded by the full morning duty. Even the standby duty personnels have to come and help us out. Its very sad to see a campmate flare up because of this. Sigh. Well, I hope i can forget about this chaotic scene.

Alright, enough said about this new 'hell-ish' new camp site. I hope it will end soon seriously! After offically moved to this site, I hope to settle down asap and then countdown to my ORD! Can't wait man!!!

Last Saturday was my cousin's 21st birthday celebration. Had fun mingling around and chat with cousins

Alright man. I shall stop. Saving up energy for my upcoming week. Luckily I have a weekend this week. Hope to enjoy myself more!! Haha. Tomorrow is Mid-Autum festival. Wish every a happy festive season!!!

2011-09-06T22:11:00.005+08:00

Day 3 in Hanoi was quite tiring too. Rushing from place to place isn't that pleasant to my lethargic body. Even though I was tired, I forced myself to cover as much attractions as possible as I know I will not come to Hanoi anytime soon. Hence, with a map in hand, we find our ways to a few attractions, namely Ho Chi Minh Masouleum, One Pillar Pagoda, Ho Chi Minh Museum, The Temple of Literature and St Joseph Cathedral. It was nice seeing these attractions as I have got lots of information online and on travel book. Have been anticipating to go. It was good to be there to get a feel of these places. Good! More pic on facebook...

Day 4 at Perfume Pagoda was an awe-inspiring day tour. We were lucky to get back the same tourguide who was with us to Halong Bay. This time round, its only my family and 2 more Americans. It was really sunny that day. The breath-taking scnery rob away the lethargic feeling from me, making me clicking the shuttle almost every second. The scenry was just too beautiful. A relaxing boat trip there made me relax mentally, away from nonsense experienced in camp. What more, lunch with the 2 Americans made me feel more confident now talking to them. They were nice ppl who are versatile in their conversation and showed no signs of racism. A pity that i didn't exchange facebook a/c or take photos with them. Anyway, the actual Perfume Pagoda site is really high up the slope. Tiring steps drained us out with perspiration all over our body. Nice rocks in the cave though. Its actually a holy ground for the buddist. Other than that, nothing much though. Yeah thats for Day 4. But one -ve thing, boat rowlers were kinda desperate for tips. Don't get con.

Day 5, the day when we say goodbye. Hmm, all i can recall was I wanna try to squueze as many activities as possible in that pathetic 6-7hours before heading back to the airport. Eventually, it was mainly shopping, relaxing by eating good food, observing lifestyle of Vietnamese etc. Splurge all the remaining Dong to whatever items i need. Haha. Felt a little reluctant to leave as it was really nice. I mean this trip. Most unbelieveable is, it cost less than SGD $500 in total. I mean everything including food and transport. Guys, Hanoi is a place u can consider visiting if ur budget is below 500. Alright, thats about it.

Summarise the entire 5 happy and relaxing days. Pictures will do the talking. Visit my fb account for more pictures =) Alright chaos ppl. Need to sleep now...

Nicest trip so far

2011-09-01T22:17:00.003+08:00

Greetings to all of u. Hmm, I guess I am just gonna post a short post. A really short post.

Hmm, it has been a week from the start of an enjoying trip to an incredible city named Hanoi. I didn't regret choosing this destination as my 2011 family overseas trip. Initially we wanted Hatyai. However, air tickets to Hanoi is kinda low. Hence we chose to go Hanoi instead of Hatyai.

I try to sum up each day by stating the mains gateaways and things to reflect on. Alright lets start with Day 1 and Day 2 for this post.

We touch down at about 2pm in Hanoi. Dad was complaining the cramp bus that fetches us to our hotel. We were all so tired and desperately in need of our hotel. Not too long after(ie 50mins bus ride), we have reached our hotel. It was good. I mean confortable and warmth feeling. No regret choosing this hotel, really. Good service provided by the receptionist. AFter a good bath, went to search for FOOD. After food, Water Puppet show at 6.30pm. It was spectacular. Never will we get to see such cute puppets acting in the water. Although I don't understand anything from it, its something that I think its worth watching as I know I may not get to see it again. And went back hotel after that to rest for day 2.

Day 2, an all anticipated day tour to Halong Bay is finally here. The journey was arduous as i took us 3.5 hours to travel on a Van bus to Halong Bay. It was really long and the bumpy road makes us even more uncomfortable and intolerable. However, the breath-taking scene there outweighs more than proportionately. I was amazed by the beauty of nature. I am speechless and at the same time elated to see such beautiful tower karst. Geography student like me see many pictures on lecture books. But this time, I see it REAL!!! It was purely relaxing and NICE! It was nice sitting on rowing boat, looking at the natural landscape of Halong Bay, which deemed as one of the most spectacular MUST-GO place in Asia. Back home at 8pm plus and we were all deadbeat. But its ALL WORTH IT!! 5star!!! (tour at only 39USD)! Where to find? Haha

Basically that sums up day 1 and 2. I need to sleep now. Update real SOON!! Night!

A little excited

2011-08-23T17:18:00.002+08:00

Wow the last entry was quite sometime ago. Just couldn't be bothered to blog as I was rather lazy to do so. Pictures were posted in facebook. Well, there is nothing much to say I guess.

It was routine in camp but new things were added to spice up our lives. My duty team were kinda enthusiastic in terms of food. Our final plan was to get a multi-purpose cooker, where frying steaming and boiling can all be made using that cooker. Basically we were 'enjoying' our lives by cooking.

I would say I am kinda lucky to be in this team, who were selfless and generous. We share food with each other. More to come man! Haha.

Anyway, I am quite excited now. Reason being I am only 2 days away from my overseas trip this year. 2011 has been quite busy for me. Mainly due to the compromising of duties. Finally have a chance to apply for it and hence take a short break from this hectic duty cycle.

Hanoi, one of the most beautiful city in Southeast Asia, is the destination that me and my brother has chosen to go for this year's family trip. Although we have been to Vietnam in 2009, its another experience that most probably memorable, if not enjoyable. Ho Chi Minh City in 2009 is kinda developing, the experience were good but not at my optimal expectation though. I hope Hanoi can give an experience that is both enjoyable and memorable =)

Comments from various states that Hanoi will most likely be better than HCM city. The lifestyle and the scenery definitely outweighs those in HCM. Hmm, we shall see man! I will SPAM photo taking there. Haha.

Alright, shall anticipate that trip for HO family in 2011! HANOI HERE I COME!!!!!! Wweeeee!!

Month of Success

2011-08-11T20:34:00.002+08:00

Hi guys. It has been a while. I mean a week or so. How's life? Colourful? Boring? Busy? Tiring? I guess there are many answers to this question. haha.

Last week has been a busy week as usual, planning and doing duty in conjunction. DIY my own costume for a "THEME" party that i would say its a fiasco in terms of callng people to dress up for the theme. Brought my stuffs there and eventually didn't wear it in the end. Its just so weird to wear as NOBODY dress up exept for one artistic friend of her friend. Yeah, I am referring to Kat's birthday.

Overall, I am ok with the setting and the food. Its just not pleasant to see her drunk in that state, walking precariously with a bottle of liquor on her hand, spouting words that doesn't make sense at all. It was a total turn off.

However, I felt something really really genuine. Her parents really LOVE HER lots! The second round in the hotel was another insightful experience I have. Oh god, I hate to see those complex situations that has got to do with adulthood. On the contrary, its life. I am reaching that stage soon. Perhaps its due to my traditional mindset that hotel stay is something unpleasant. Well, I love to experience it though. Overall, I think its ok with balance number of guys and girls. Just that the drunk birthday girl was spouting nonsense. Haha. SOmething unpleasant to hear. I gave it to her. Left at 3am. Next day, duty haha!!!

Finally 3 birthdays of my close friend have finally come to and end. I breath a sigh of relieve. No more headache on presents and stuffs like that. Well, still Happy 21st!!

Hmm, lets side track. Well, I did what i was supposed to do. Things go on well. I mean nothing major happened to me last week. However, there is something that made me astounded. I swear it has NEVER EVER cross my mind. Its something sweet but questionable. As usual, I had a very paranoid feeling about it once again, thinking negatively on that stuff.

With assistance from friends, I felt better in handling it. Without surprise, I did the default things to handle the situation. It turned out pretty well. I guess this opportunity is ONCE IN A MILLION. 'Stan, its either u get it this time, or u will never have the opporunity again anymore!'-Rups.

So I will take the plunge and do whatever I am supposed to do, or what my heart tells me to do for that matter. However, I am kinda impatient. Its like a few days and I can feel the strog desire to do it. I guess I am eager to see the end result of it. Haha.

Well, I guess its pretty much certain that the time will come soon. Just that I will have to wait and wait and wait till the sky drops. Haha. shall post it man! And I can declare that FINALLY, i have accomplish something that I really want.

Hmmm, but not the desire outcome. Maybe 90% fulfilled though.

Alright, chaos. Duty again tmr SIAN!!!

Most colourful birthday party ever

2011-07-31T20:16:00.003+08:00

Good evening good evening. What a pleasant Sunday. Slept half of the Sunday away. Woke up at 4pm today. I have ever tried sleeping till 4pm in my 20 years of life. Reason? Ton the entire night.

It was one of the most memorable 21st birthday party i have ever been. The ambience gave a happy feeling always with colours brightening up the entire chalet, embracing each and everyone's mood. At least, I am glad that the secondary friends are enthusiastic enough to wear colours. I think i am one of the brightest last night, wearing orange and cyan. haha.

Rups is my bestmate. Of course I will do my very best to buy for her something that she will use it. Also, I promise her to wear as bright as possible to suit the theme. And indeed I did. Haha.

The minus point of the party is I had too little sleep. Or rather, I didn't sleep the entire night till this morning. And I have seen something that makes me ponder in a negative way. I will have to start observing. haha. Not in a mood to blog. Enjoy the pic though=)

Love the colourful effects of the collages. I use to be a dull person but have slowly accepted colours. Now I like both bright and dull colours. It just say about the mood. I am glad that I suggested this theme to Rups as her 21st bday party theme.

Alright, gtg.. Be back soon!

Shocking news

2011-07-28T22:22:00.003+08:00

I was astounded when I hear that news. My jaws literally drop when I hear it coming from omy senior. I just didn't expect this to happen within the short period of one and a half months. Its just too sudden to accept the fact. This fact seriously made my morale low despite a happy standby day for me today.

I am pretty sure he is now at a place far far away. At least the agony and hassle has ended. Less suffering, less taxing and less stressful to his body. Why did u leave so suddenly? Sigh..

Mr Chng, a very nice and amicable worker in my camp, whom in my impression, is kind, approachable and a very hard working uncle. He never fails to come promptly at 7am in the morning and leave at about 5.15pm. Seeing him waving every single time when I open the gate to see him off, its just a pleasant sight that could possibly make the day.

Since the day I was posted here, I just find him very nice. Its just a feeling from him. Saying hi and bye with his utmost sincerity every single time enhances the relationship between us. It foster a strong bond between us that is just so pleasant.

I kept thinking of him today. The feeling of him around is still there. Its still very fresh and it kinda feel like he is still here. From what I know, he is very devoted in his job and works his best to make ends meet.

He got a terminal stage lung cancer. Its really sad to hear that. Cancer brought him away from us and his loved ones. What a pity and sad news received today.

I am sad that I can't even see him for the last time as I am on duty for the one and a half months at Nee Soon camp. If I know it, I will most likely visit his wake. Well, that's one month ago. Sigh. Can't turn back time.

This positive and cheerful uncle will always be in my mind. I hope from this I can learn something from it.

Early detection is important! Take good care of your health is the MOST important. Without health, all the effort is gone to waste. Money can't buy health. At least i mean directly.

Mr Chng, hope this ending will lead you better in the paradise world....

High expenditure

2011-07-26T21:08:00.004+08:00

Its like 9.10pm now. The day passes so quickly. Came home at 9.30am and went on checking hotels online for my holiday with family to Hanoi coming end August. Hmm it was a rush decision but i just hope that I will enjoy it as much as I can.

Well these few days are really busy. Juggling between duties and entertainment. Come to think of it last week passed kinda fast.

Met up with Rups just one day before Jasmines birthday. The main plan was to get the Birthday cake for Jas. Sat down at the forever emotional spot the our long lost soul use to settle, which is at Vivo sky garden. We took the plunge to change the spot this time round, to a place even better for a heart to heart talk. What more, its just a stone throw away.

I heart went to her. I just want her to pick herself up and look forward to the future. I think the most important thing in life is to be far sighted and practical goals to achieve. At least for her matter.

Jasmine Birthday falls on a day when I applied leave. Hmm, what a day. Its was a turn on day so to speak, meaning I am just very high. Adrenaline rush from morning till after before its settled down when I met my Darlings. Just too nice a memory.

Jasmine Birthday was celebrated at Kiseki Japanese Buffet restaurant. It was worth the money. The food variety is vast, mainly Japanese food. The unlimited supply of Salmon Sashimi and the generous spread of meat, vege etc and desserts made it a value for money place to visit. Most likely I will visit again.

Went to Helipad at The Central Clark Quay for the 2nd half of the celebration. The place is really nice to chillax. $25 to enter seems a little taxing on my pocket. Haha. However the service was pretty BAD. Literally. All the know was to settle the bill asap where they haven even serve my drinks. I wait for like 1/2hour. What more, an unexpected situation smack right in front of my face. Gurp down the cup of Cranberry Vodka in like 5minutes, making my frantic self reach another high new level. Went off at 1am as I have duty the very next day. What an expensive night!

Quebec Club 38 meet up on Sunday. It was a hot Sunday afternoon and as usual, all came late. Got my GREEN LANTERN mask for Kat's birthday. Right now i need to DIY the logo and the ring too. Haha. Should be fine =)

Buffet, steamboat buffet at Bugis after shoppig around Bugis area. To be frank, I didn't enjoy it a lot but it was fine. At least there were times where we talk. The service of the steamboat is really bad. Not anytime soon will I patronise. Food was OK though.

Ended off strolling around the hotel beside Bugis. Nice pics. Haha. I was shock to see the Green Lantern ring costs $129. LOL! SO freaking Ex!!!

Alright, shall stop here. What a post again. Nice pic, kudos to me =X Haha. On leave tmr. So shiok! Haha. ALright. Take care...

Lots to say

2011-07-24T22:47:00.002+08:00

I have umpteen thoughts that I wanna say. However, time does not permit. I guess I will have to postpone this potential rattling post the next visit.

Actually, its just a temporary rattling posts. I don't think I will brood over it that much as time will heal the wound naturally. Haha. Or rather its just some hurting feeling, not to mention its wound.

Alright, i got to stop here. BRB perhaps on Tuesday..

Adrenaline

2011-07-22T12:09:00.002+08:00

Adrenaline rush right now. I can feel that blood is flowing intensely throughout my whole body. Without alcohol, I can feel the 'high' in me. Just that its slightly intense.

I can feel the heat dissipating from my body, just like when I am in the club. That does not mean that I have drank a few cups of 'on the rock'! Neither am I down with a fever. Haha.

Hmm, interesting. Why am I feeling that at this wee hour? It has got to do with the ambiguous post that i have posted last week.

The long anticipation and hard work of my dream has paid off to another new level high. Its getting closer and closer day after day. However, there are sometimes sparks and downfall that adds up to the overall experience. I think I am handling it quite ok with there is definitely a chance of suceeding. The day will come one fine day.

Recently, I am watching 2 TV serials. Of course from Hong Kong. They are 'Truth' and 'Yes SIr Sorry Sir'. Not too bad. I have learn something from it. Be brave, do something that u have never ever think u can do it. Think out of the box always. Who knows u might get something that surprises u. Haha..

Alright, say no more Stan. I will work harder and harder. I can smell the feeling of success right now.. Just u wait..

Furious

2011-07-18T17:33:00.002+08:00

Right now, I feel like becoming a dragon and blow out a huge fire. I am really pissed off right now. I am havng headache. What more to aggravate that uncomfort with rages in my family. All of us were like dosed with FIRE CAPSULES. Everyone of us were talking, oops sorry its shouting, at the top of our voice. My bro is just a pain in the ass.

Its really simple. Nothing complex, nothing intricate, nothing complicated. Things came in too sudden and I hate to make impromptu decisions. At least allow me to have some buffer time to get myself ready. SERIOUSLY.

It goes like this. Firstly, I am already piss with myself. I hate myself for not able to think of presents to give to my close friend. WHat more 3 of them have their birthdays aligned nicely one week after next. I am like super broke now with lots of money spent on daily stuffs which are necessities. Oh my. Money has always been sensitive to me. I am trying really hard to control my spending and save up as much as I can. Now, there goes....

Next up, an impromptu decision made today. We were discussing on whether should we go on a holiday. I wanna clear some of my leave as Sep and Oct may be busy and that applying for it may be difficult. Hence, I suggested to go on August. The initial plan started a month ago on first week of June. It dragged all the way till today and they have decided to go HANOI. I thought no one suggested anything means we will give a pass this time round. What a shock when they all agreed to go. Hence, another 200-300 gone.

Iphone urge is increasingly strong these few months. I already have plans to get one when my contract ends in Nov/Dec. I want to change to Iphone 5, which rumours are spreading that in September, it will be released.

21st Birthday this year in NOV and I have yet to plan ANYTHING. 21 years old, key to most of the things. It is time to really plan something to make it a memorable birthday. Party, theme, buffet, huge birthday cake, family and friends, all should be present in 21st!

All of these, requires $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.
What more, insurance? Braces instalment? I am quite dry now. Yeah, dry..

Its really giving me paranoid when I see the $ dropping day by day. However, to think of the brighter side, money can be earned back after ORD. And there's never ending to earn. I will have opportunity in future.

What made me really hard up was the timing for the flight. I think I have caused inconvenience to my clerk and Sgt. Seriously, I feel so bad changing the date of arrivals. There many factors here and there, booking the tickets, calling to apply leave, all were done in 10 minutes, making me go heywire and i feel really sorry when the date of arrival needs to be changed, interuptting the schedule.

I have a really high expectation in camp now. After going through hell days in March to May, I know how it feels and I am making sure history does not repeat. Interupting the schedule is always a big minus point. I just hope that MM does not screw me up like last time. Sigh....

Now, I am really afraid that on Kat's birthday I will not be able to make it for the Birthday party.
The reason is the duty schedule keeps changing. I have requested for a change in the schedule already. I find myself a bit overboard to change duty again if i got duty on 7th August? Seriously! Am i?

Sigh... Please, don't let that nonsense repeat again.....

Fluctuating

2011-07-12T17:30:00.004+08:00

Right now, my heart is pounding kinda fast. I am not like dealing with a 100k deal or whatsoever transaction, nor neither am I risking on something that could that take away my life. Hmm, how shall I say.

Basically, I am nervous, anxious, excited, elated, over the moon, impatient and looking forward to something. That something has been longed by me since the past. I have been working hard for it, making sure that the best effort is put in each time. A few attempts were made and they were either not optimal or just didn't reach my expectation. Come to think of it, it kinda suck.

This time round, I tried my best to manipulate words and things around, hoping that the final stage can be reached without compromising my expectation.

Right now, that anxiety is still going on in me. Any single step that goes wrong can lead me to the wrong direction. I am praying hard that this time round, I can succeed.

However, this makes me really paranoid right now. The 6th sense tells me, there is 50-50% chance of achieving it, but something is just wrong. Sigh. I rather the answer to be reviewed asap.

30minutes later.....

And once again, I have yet to prove myself that I am capable of achieving it. However, I swear I have tried my best but its not my fault. Due to unforeseen circumstances, which apparently my 6th sense tells me, it still gives me the ambiguos feeling. Oh man, how to win that?

I feel OK right now. I am trying to remedy it.

And it goes on....

Picture post

2011-07-10T20:05:00.002+08:00

Pictures taken on 040711 at Asian Civilisation Museum with my family! More pictures available at my facebook profile. That's all for today! Till then...

Busy

2011-07-06T18:12:00.002+08:00

Right now, my mind is screwed up. It is undergoing some maintainence due to excessive draining of brain cells that has caused the inability to function properly. With many external factors that have contributed and the hectic duty schedule that aggravated it, its inevitable to feel frantic and annoyed by whatever things that come along.

Last week was frankly one of the best weeks in the month of June. I went for a nice evening jog with Rups aka bestmate. It was to maintain a healthy lifestyle even though my body is kinda screwed up by the tiring duties. I am super pessimistic on duty schedule for the month of July, considering manpower shortage. Seriously, I don't know when will i get my weekend.

KBOX with Sista Sharon was fun. It was relaxing and enjoyable. Singing nice songs and of course duets. Oh I would say we had hell lots of fun recording those songs too. And they were nice! Really!

Asian Civilisation Museum with family on Monday 4th July. It was great viewing historical stuffs that exhibits past history and happenings. Terracotta exhibition was the one that we mainly went there for. It was really awe-inspiring. What more, its free entry for NSFs and Senior Citizen. Not that bad, can give it a try. Pictures to be uploaded.

Something unpleasant happened on monday night. Had a tiff with someone. From what I could recall, I am purely not in favour of the tone she used on me on the prezzy that I am gonna get her. Perhaps I was sensitive that night. I realise its because I treasure her very much thats why I am direct and wanna give the best gift i can afford to her. I guess I was ignorant that the best thing she wants from me is my presence with the outfit. While my attention,on the other hand, was on the gift. Hence, misunderstanding sparked and with the harsh tone that I was seriously perturbed and irritated, I went super direct with my words. Sarcasm and hostility was what I adpoted then.

Come to think of it, both of us were at fault. I was rude and cruel to this long and sustainable friendship while she was a ignorant with her tone and words. Right now, I just need time to recover from this.

Anyway, things were not going well these 2 days. I mean meet-ups etc. Meet up today with a friend whom I have never met since last June as she went to Australia to study was cancelled due to some reason, which apparently I was a little piss and disappointed. I am seriously not optimistic about meeting her again due to uncompatible free time this and next week.

That all. Routine continues........

Enjoy

2011-06-28T10:56:00.005+08:00

Hey hey, am back from camp. Hmm yesterday was kinda good as I had deep sleep. I mean sleep that can make me recharge my energy lost. Quality sleep is what I need.

Felt good when I wake up at 7 plus this morning as I had quality sleep. Felt kinda refresh today. Probably screwed body clock.

Anyway, I balance my "tiring" life with lots of entertainment. In particular FOOD with friends gathering. Haha. I think I will let the photos do the talking.

MEDZS after movie with camp mates. Good price and good food. But lesser variety. Overall, 7/10.

Baking Cheese Cake at Kat's house. Better skills next time.

DIM SUM buffet at Peach Garden restaurant Thomson Plaza with BMT mates. 7.5/10! Good price. $18.40nett. Pls, have UOB cards to enjoy the low price high tea buffet.

Alright, thats about it. Lazy to blog today. Take care. Btw, I have finisg GLEE both seasons. Can't wait for Glee Season 3.

TV series

2011-06-24T21:58:00.002+08:00

Recently, I have been crazy over this series, Glee. I know I am late but its not that late right? This US tv series is super entertaining, especially for those who loves music. Their singing is above mediocre and I just like the way the show is presented.

I have never ever felt so enthusiastic towards an English TV series or drama. This is the first one I am into. Perhaps there are music that I love in this show and the actors and actresses are cool. I mean really cool. The english accent is not that strong and is really confortable for us Singaporeans to understand. I am so in love with them, really.

Watching it in my camp with my mp5 player. Relaxing and enjoying the show in an air-con setting makes duty so much better. Singing and moving along with the show is what it is called relaxing. I predict that I will finish season 2 by this weekend, hope so =)

How I met your mother is another series I wanna watch after Glee. Its so funny. Popular in USA. Haha. So many nice shows to watch.

Hmm, I am surprised by my actions. I mean my sudden desire to watch those TV series. Haha. I guess I need to as it helps in my English.

Alright, ppl go watch it. Its promising, really. I would give a 3.75 out of 5 stars. Pretty awesome!

Ok, night ppl. Back to duty tmr again.

Fail

2011-06-22T22:17:00.002+08:00

Went to Kat's house to bake, again. It was fiasco. Seriously.

She added a bit more ingredients, making it a little out of proportion, leading to a watery cheesecake.

Well, its the fun i had i guess. Pictures to be uploaded.

Night peeps..

Random

2011-06-18T21:05:00.002+08:00

Hey, am back. Tired. Why so tired? Its non other than my duty. There goes without saying..

Right now,on a Saturday night, I donno what to do after dinner with cousin. Most probably I will be sleeping early tonight. I need to repair my body. Lack of blood circulation.

In love with GLEE. Its only currently that I get to watch it. The main reason is because I bought that MP5 player and uploaded to it. Its so nice watching it to keep me awake in the midnight. It just keep me motivated. Main thing is its not so tiring doing duty now. What a good deal, cheap and worthwhile.

Alright, I guess I will finish Season 1 by tmr duty. Haha

That's all....

Movie

2011-06-16T21:51:00.004+08:00

Watched The Green Lantern this afternoon. I was pretty excited as I think it looks interesting to me via trailers and wallpapers.

Overall, I would give it a 3.5/5. Its quite a mediocre movie. The action scenes are too little and at some point of time, its too draggy. However, on a lighter note, it keeps me thinking. The concept of WILL vs FEAR is something that's quite original. The graphics are quite well done and its really clear. Not too computerise.

Haha that professor looks really ugly when his head expanded. Haha. Howl(is this how it is spelled) is COOL!

ALright, I guess that's all I wanna say. More worth it to watch on a weekday but its also fine to watch it on a weekend with that standard. I mean, why not, give THE GREEN LANTERN a watch. =)

Went to MEDSZ at Orchard Central. Quite cheap and nice. I prefer this to Marche. Haha. But less variety than Marche. Not bad, may come again.

Stop here, duty tmr. Bye

Happy June

2011-06-16T10:31:00.005+08:00

People say rainbow will appear after a storm, I agree. However in real context, its not always the case. As far as I am concern, there is a small array of rainbow appeared in this month, making my life relatively happier in the year 2011.

I would say, finally. The past 5 months have not been that smooth sailing for me as my NS life screwed up most of it. I was really in my lowest point in March this year. However, I know it will end and I endured through. And here I am this June with a better life and a happier Stanley.

It all started when I am posted to Nee Soon camp for my duty. With a conducive environment and absence of someone who potentially scolds us, I would choose to classify as a HEAVEN duty ground. Now I truly understands why the seniors were so desperate to go there for duty.

Anyway, I side track a little. So I was saying my life is better now. It all spiced up with outings and good food that just make my day. Good food can just make my mood good! Haha

A couple of meet ups with Rups, eating good food and Starbucks for relaxation. What a way to enjoy life.

Anyway, yesterday and today is my leave. Went to Tanjong Pagar to pray as Kat wanted to pray for her studies as she is going to start uni soon. And being relatively knowledgeable with praying(I mean our age group), I guided her. Lunch after that at my all-time-favourite YONG TAU HU stall. I will always eat this stall after praying. Standard remains at its best. =)

After which headed to Kat's place to BAKE. Yeah, it just sounds fun to hear that. I requested to bake Cranberry cookies. And here's the pictures gallery =)

It was a success I would say. I give it a 7.5/10. Love it =)

Went to meet my army mates for dinner. MAD JACK was quite disappointing as the portion is little and mediocre taste. I'm sorry.

TCC after that. OMG the last time I visit TCC was like 2-3 years ago. I have actually wasted a lot of money on coffee chains and TCC is one of them. Hmm, got a HAZEL FELLA though.

Nice chatting on camp issues with them. Its a rare opportunity that we can meet up as schedules keep chaging. Just love it overall.

Thanks mates =)

Alright, thats all for ow. Going for movie later with other army mates and I am sure there will be more people. Woohoo I love june!

PC show 2011

2011-06-12T21:57:00.004+08:00

Hi guys. am back for a short update. Planned to go back to PC show today to get that mp5 player that was making me in a dilemma on Friday. It was really tempting and my brother wanted me to buy it so ya. And here you go..

Its a brand from China. Hmm, many people doubt the quality and everything. I would say I am part of them but I seriously put that thought aside as I am quite "desperate" for a device like this. I need to bring to camp to entertain myself.

Just open up and figure out this thing. Haha. I like it! Its cool man! Seriously! And the best part is, its only $89. 1 year warranty. Its worth the price.

Alright, shall see how this thing works and give more comments when I use it. Night...

Nice Movie

2011-06-10T22:24:00.003+08:00

Watched X MEN FIRST CLASS this afternoon. I would say I was really tired due to tight schedule. So i sat on the comfy GV cinema, dosing off at anytime while showing the advertisements and previews. However, when the show starts, I remember very clearly that I was sober and awake.

The show was fantastic I would say. I was really focusing with my 100% attention from the start till the end. I was just so enthusiastic on every part of the movie. So far, this movie caught my attention this year.

Alright, just one small part that I wanna comment. I don understand how METAL and BREAK DIAMOND. LOL! Its CHEMISTRY man! Maybe, that's their mutation. Haha

Alrght, back to camp again tmr. Night peeps! =)

P.S: 8.5/10.Go watch it!

Boring

2011-06-05T20:10:00.002+08:00

Boring. Its just too boring these few days. Have changed my duty location to Nee Soon. And I think its cool. Seriously.

However u need great company. Not that its boring, its just really very nice to do duty. Haha. But i just need some time to get use to the night duty there.

I aim to grow fat. I mean gain mass. Shall try to exercise on my off days. Aim is to keep myself fit and healthy. I will try really.

Recently felt that I am seriously quite skinny. Skinny due to high metabolism. I have small ribs, making me look like a bamboo from far. I need to train for bigger chest and back. Enlighten me pls!

Ok, another thing is I am into right now is I wanna get a electronic gadget. I need to watch some shows as I will be bored to death if I just stare blankly. Still thinking. PC show next week, shall see how.

Alright, thanks about it. Gtg bye!

Headache

2011-06-03T21:22:00.001+08:00

Headache. That's all I can say now. New duty site is cool, but tedious for me. I need to get use to the timing and the duty schedule over there. So lack of sleep!

Nothing much these few days. Went Kbox yesterday. Ya, thats about it.

Short entry. Be right back. Duty tmr!

2011-05-31T21:57:00.002+08:00

And that's for Marcus's Birthday 2011! He turned 20 on 27th May 2011 and he celebrated his birthday at Marina Mandarin hotel. I enjoyed it, not because of the unlimited alcohol, but the interesting and unexpected reaction of a drunkard. Oops.

Well, I just wanna sum it up as I am actually not suppose to comment anything about this as requested by Marcus. Haha. I enjoy it lots, even though some stuffs turned my off.

Sorry for this slip shot post as I am really turning in. Headache the whole day! Going to a new place for duty tmr. FINALLY, I would say. I have gotten back something that is actually given to me in February. Didn't snatch it back though. It came because of something. Sigh. But I seriously am so comfortable with duty at my current place. Its just fate I guess.

Good night pals =)

Sad?

2011-05-30T21:09:00.002+08:00

Continuing from previous post.

Hmm, right now I am feeling better. The sad mood is gone as time is the best element to cure many discomfort, at least for me.

It was regarding the major incident on one of my close friend in camp. I don't know what triggers his rash behaviour. But what is done cannot be undone. Right now we will just have to wait and wait for the verdict.

But I am glad to see him smiling and laughing out loud. At least I know he is making himself happy and derail his thoughts from the incident.

Because of this, I feel better. i just hope he will get a light sentence. I am praying hard!

Anyway, epic moments on 27 May Friday night. Haha. Will blog it tmr if possible!

Tired. Night!

SAD?

2011-05-28T18:16:00.002+08:00

Sigh. That's the mood right now. Whenever I feel worried, sad, down etc whatever pessimistic feeling, all I can do is to sigh...

The kind of sadness inside me is really disturbing. Disturbing in the sense that I cannot even do anything about whatever bad things have happened. I am just paranoid by endless unpleasant experience coming day after day. It just suck big time.

Firstly, this entire week is seriously filled with uncertainties and insecurities. Meeting deadlines and giving QUALITY suggestions is a total turnoff. To be frank, and I mean seriously frank, I have used up as much brain juice as possible to come up with the idea to satisfy the criteria. Thinking hard enough avoid contradicting ideas, to avoid duplication and avoid sub-standard ideas, I have always put into account all these pointers. Sigh. In the end, nothing is approved.!

All I receive is a THREAT by them. Its kinda like pushing us to the grave! We are all drained out by this thing.

To be continue.....

Bored

2011-05-25T20:21:00.003+08:00

I am so BORED! The mundane 2 days, duty off and off day are seriously a WASTE of time. I think I should be blamed for that as I did not plan for any activity that interests me. Perhaps the BORING word can be used to describe today and not yesterday.

Yesterday was OK. Met Rups before she works. Had the usual lunch and GONG CHA. The few hours of catching up is good, as usual. Her stories on Tioman trip are captivating. Time passes really quickly but most importantly, quite well spent.

Didn't intend to run as it was like going to rain i think. I am also tired so I rather ran today. And today, I woke up at 7am to go Polyclinic to see doctor for foot 'rot'. In the end, bought the cream and F off as its like flooded with people. Haha.

Ate breakfast at the nearby hawker. Nice breakfast. Carrot cake, popiah and soy bean, typical breakfast. NICE!!

Home ROTTING using com. Haha. Wanna time 2.4 just now and u know wad, Toa Payoh Stadium was closed due to soccer. Sigh. Did some statics before home.

Now, i am tired. Tmr waking up at about 4am to get ready for IPPT . Think can only PASS the most, unless there is a sudden surge of energy. Ok, so wish me luck =)

Ok, good night peeps..... Yawn

Nice Saturday

2011-05-22T17:10:00.004+08:00

Hi there. Just another entry. Weekend entries are usually more positive I would say. Haha. Derailing away from those nonsense is so good. I wish this will pertuatuate as long as possible.

After duty on Friday, I came back home. The initial plan was to head to NUS FASS OPEN HOUSE 2011 with Denis to get more information about my course. However, I was too reluctant to go as I was really tired. If I am really interested to find out more, the sites and hotlines are available.

Went to meet my ex JC mate who is currently in Pulau Tekong for only 3 weeks. Next week is field camp for him. Accompanied him to watch a movie. Damn crowded. Pirates Of The Caribean was FULL HOUSE, literally. In the end watch PRIEST.

Just an average show but still acceptable. Watch it only on weekdays. 65/100 I would say!

Next up, walk around as he needs to get stuffs. GONG CHA next and chatted for a while before heading to CLEMENTI!

The new CLEMENTI MALL is opened yesterday with a fresh outlook. Its infrastructure is so high end relatively to the old and dilapidated buildings. Its really crowded and is so good as it satisfy every entertaining needs. Ate my favourite Chicken Cutlet, after stopping for 1 year. Haha. The taste remains as delicious as before.

Headed to SUnset Way for ice cream recommended by cousin. I tell you guys, this is really nice. The Daily Scoop. Its not so sweet and is just nice for me. Try it guys. One more is located at Holland V.

Satisfying Saturday! So nice meeting cousin for a meal and update on each others life.

Went home at 10 plus and I was really tired. So so tired. Yawn.. Duty tmr......

Sian

2011-05-19T21:37:00.002+08:00

Every day, life is so dreadful. Today is another day full of crap. Intensity is high.

Hot weather makes me frustrated with many things. Luckily there were good lunch and also nice chats in the afternoon. Something before going home spoils the entire day. Thanks to him, showing authoritative face and harsh tone, instructing to do something NOT practised in my 8 months there. Wow, thanks for faking in front of higher authority. I saw it man..

The worst is the 'assignments' that we need to complete. Sigh. What to do? I am preparing for the worst seriously! Not much hope anymore. I feel the confinement nearing......

But I am praying hard....

Bad start

2011-05-18T19:57:00.003+08:00

Currenly listening to music on youtube. As usual, I will say that I am tired once again. Haha. Went to collect my new passport. After which went to Watsons Bugis to get some stuffs for Mum. Came home and jumped onto the sofa. I was totally drained out.

Didn't sleep too well last night due to excessive mosquito bites. Was a bit tired to open the gate for fellow camp mates to come in. Talking about camp mates, there was an annonymous person who reported to camp today. Heard stuffs about him and I have very bad impresson of him.

During a talk by superior, he actually did something really annoying. I shall not mention. The worst was, he actually gave comments that were really unexpected. Stalking my facebook is one and demanding me to change some of the content in it. I was seriously speechless and felt defensive. I am really really disturbed by his actions. Seriously LOW PR skills. Its like I don't owe him anything and I DON'T EVEN KNOW YOU. Even the closest person did not tell me off like that. If you wanna "SAVE" me from trouble, at least have the courtesy to tell me nicely and not regergitate your views without using your brain. I was really angry this morning.

Felt disturb now. What to do? There bound to be people like this kind in the society, just got to endure it.

Enough said, am really tired. I need to sleep. night!

Munching away

2011-05-16T19:50:00.008+08:00

As usual, I am enjoy myself to the best of my ability. Outing and meet ups are as usual. I just enjoy it. At least it helps me to derail unhappy moments that are mostly caused by the time spent in my full-time occupation.

I balanced it with outings and meet up with friends. Eat all I can is something that I wish I could do. However, my appetite restricts me from achieving it. Haha. Alright, enough said.

SYF 2011 for Band on 3rd of May. I was glad to dismount and can make it for the performance. SRJC did ok in general. But sadly, I would say my year is better. The sound produced wasn't as good as those from my batch. But they have tried their best. A bronze award is what they have gotten in this years' SYF. Standard increased tremendously! But I know they have tried their best. I miss band though!

On Voting day, it was my cousin Sis's Birthday Planned an outing at Marina Square with cousin Samuel and family. It was a good takeway that day as I was really astounded by a waitress named Amal working the restaurant Hippopotamus at Marina Square where we dine. I've got lots to learn from her what I call truly excellent customers service. Impressive. Anyway, the foos itself is impressive with a surprisingly big portion. (Speaks for the name of the restaurant Haha). A small gift to Sis Jo from KIEHLS' before heading off. Glad she likes it! Fulfilling day indeed =) Home Sweet Home for the GE 2011 results.

Mum's Birthday on 9th May. It was a day after a tiring duty on 8th May. Celebrated her Birthday on Monday night. Simple family dinner is what we always practise and I guess that is enough to make her day. End off the day with a cake cutting session. I love you mum!

(12/05)Joined MC, Ari, Rups and Kat for a dinner session as a gathering before MC enlist. Haha. Finally they are going in. Astons at The Cathay for dinner and THOR after that. Starbucks before Home Sweet Home =)

(15/05)Met up with Yaya, Kat, Ming Ci and Yi Pei. It was a planned outing by Vicky. Sadly he was sick and unable to make it. It was still a good one as the gossips and chats kept everything lively and happy. New York New York for dinner, followed by STARBUCKS at One Fullerton. Thanks guys!

Alright, that's the end. This 2 weeks passed really quickly as I took off on standby days. Shall post more of such in future whenever I am free. Duty tmr on Vesak Day. Sigh. Can't visit the temples as I will be stuck in camp. Till then, thanks for viewing =)

GE

2011-05-16T19:31:00.003+08:00

Exciting, eager, pending, rushing are words that I can think of to describe the first 2 weeks of May. This May is deemed the most exciting and intense May in almost the past five years. Why say so? Its non other than the tension generated from GE 2011.

A brief summary of how i felt. For sure, this GE is the most interesting and exciting one in my 20 odd years of life living in Singapore. Many issues were brought up to serve as both argument and rebuttal pertaining to the livelihood of the Singaporeans. With highly literate and outspoken opposition standing before unsatisfied livelihood of Singaporeans, the challenges faced by the governing party seemed arduous. Oppostion gained power in influencing the masses, making the final results in this GE which contains the most oppostition in Singapore's history.

It doesn't really affects me though, although I have been closely updating myself on this GE2011. But all I can say is I was really glad and happy for WP to take over Aljunied GRC. The hard work and diligence to win over people's heart is seen. The adreneline rush is no doubt experience when results were released.

After a week, more news such as the stepping down of Mr George Yeo and the unfavourable Mdm Tin are common topics many are discussing. The most recent one is the stepping down of SM Goh(now Mr Goh) and MM Lee(now Mr Lee).

Yeah, too much to say, too lazy to type I prefer talking in person. Thanks to this GE that incentivised me to read more. I feel more knowledgeable, for at least a little.

Are you yawning?......

Tired

2011-05-15T10:34:00.002+08:00

It has been really tiring. Never ending duties, never ending readings, never ending commitments, never ending enjoyment etc. I am just too tired.

Right now, the only word in my mind is 'SLEEP'. I need more of it.

Will blog the happenings asap with picutures. I promise.

Good night... Oops, you mean good morning?....

May Day

2011-05-03T20:35:00.004+08:00

2 days ago, I woke up reluctantly from a 10 hour beauty sleep. That sleep meant a lot to me as it 'clears my sleep debt', at least for a little.

Waited for almost half a year for a DARLINGS meet up. I mean a full-strength meet up. I have lost count on when was the last time the 5 of us sat down to have a meal and mend the gaps. I wonder.

Its always the same old word 'busy'. I am seriously more inclined to think that its an excuse rather than real meaning of the word. Its kinda irritating to consistently hearing that he or she is occupied with lots of programmes.

I wouldn't blame entirely. I am OK with it. But consistently and protraying the nonchalant attitude towards the group is seriously intolerable. When this is brought up, unhappiness and black face was shown. Oh, so I am the devil now? Wow.

Whatever it is, I dare say I have tried a few endeavours to bridge the gaps between us. Currently am very cool with our situation as I am kinda use to it. I will just do whatever is deemed ethically right. Initiating a meet up? Once in a blue moon I guess. I will be more appreciative if others initiate it.

Had a long-awaited lunch at Vivo City Ministry Of Burger(MOB) recommended by Yaya. It was really nice. Price are relatively moderate. Most importantly, the food is promising. =)

Yeah, smile to the camera! Perhaps we haven't been meeting for quite some time and hence, I can't feel much about this meet up. All I can say is I enjoyed myself and am glad that we were as close as before, apparently.

Yeah, thats all for Sunday. GE week! Can't wait for the results. So exciting! Haha

I am tired..........

Lovely weekend

2011-05-01T21:02:00.007+08:00

The long awaited weekend is here once again. Long-awaited in my dictionary I mean. It the nature of my duty, hence weekends are always so important to me.

Oh well, I would say the plannings and the coordination with them is really worthwhile. Although it was frustrating in the process as its hard to compromise each other's timing, going out as a group eradicates the frustrations and unhappiness in me. The mere meet up with just a simple meal is sufficient to produce that kind of satisfaction needed in my current life. I am thankful.

The Saturday started off with a sleep in the morning. Came home at about 10am after a day duty. After a short 1 hour rest, I took some time to make up myself to look as good as I can using that 30minutes time. I was happy with the end results.

Met up with Kenny, Yoke Hung, Kenneth, Jack, Marcus and Varun. It has been a LONG LONG time since we have FULL STRENGTH(6 of us) going out. I was so glad that all were present. It was pity that a few couldn't make it at the very last minute though.

Had PARISS High Tea Buffet as our lunch. Cosy setting and romantic ambience was what i experienced then. The food served ranges from western to chinese and local delicacies. It does not have a wide range of food but I would say it satisfactory,only. Perhaps I have a higher expectation for paying $21.80nett.

After a satisfactory late lunch, we went to chill out. It was impromteu. We played pool! It was fun but not really that fun. Skill was rusty. It was expensive and short. Luckily we didn't play for long. A once-in-a-while should be fine.

In short, I was glad to meet them up and that short catch-up with them is enough to bridge the 'gap' between us. I really hope to meet up with them for at least once every 2 months, taking into account the fact that we are busy with ARMY! Haha. Yoke and Kenny is enlisting next week, which explains why the meet up. We want to meet up before they enlist. Hope they cope well in that island. Left them at about 6plus.

Went to Cafe Cartel Marina Square to meet FMP2 army mates. Had our dinner with the rest of the 10 people. It was my first time going out with so many guys. I would say it was heart-warming and fun. Fun shooting with Gabriel on random issues with regards to camp politics with the usage of bitchy accent.

Walked aimlessly and the next thing I know was we were at the top of Esplanade. Took some landscape night shots. Went to ONE FULLERTON for a drink.

In the nutshell, I just love the ambience at OVEREASY pub. Cosy, 1-for1, catching up, poilitics, fun, nice scenery, windy, relaxing, photos, cheeky, bitching, smiles etc are words that I can think of. A pity that some of them couldn't make it for this MASS OUTING! More to come, I really hope. Supper with cousin at Henderson Teochew Porridge after that. Home sweet home at 1.15am.

Alright, I am going to stop typing as I feel the urge to jump,literally, on my cosy bed. Haha. Need more rest as I am out the whole afternoon with my DARLINGS! Shall update on Tuesday!

But before ending this entry, I wanna express something, and that is about the General Election 2011. I was fascinated by the intense competition between the PAP's and the oppositions. To speak the truth, I am very surprise by the opposition this year.

Most gave QUALITY speeches with rational proposals on certain issues that affects the fellow Singaporeans. They are the daring ones who speak the hearts out of Singaporeans who were not in favour of the government. Ovation to their rallies so far. More to come, please.

Perhaps the current situation and economy of Singapore gives the opposition opportunity to challenge the government. Issues such as inflation are high property prices are dominant issues are arec constantly harped on. I would say its quite a serious issue to us Singaporeans.

Actually, the rising cost of living is unfavourable to us Singaporeans. No one dares to speak up. No shows the strong drive to them on the negative impact on us due to the inflation this year. The opposition now are there to speak up for us. I am glad that they have to answer to this.

On the contrary, so much for the opposition, I contradicted myself and landed myself in a state of dilemma. I am still quite in favour of PAP as without them, I wouldn't be having a contented life right now. Their rallies are as HIGH QUALITY as the oppositions. This brings the competition to another level of excitement.

This week will be so exciting. Newspapers and the media will be telecasting and producing informations on the GE 2011! I will be following closely, I promise.

Aljunied GRC, is comoeting VERY VERY intensely! My friends staying there are all in dilemma as they think both parties are equivalent and has its own strengths. Both have their points to support themselves. WP VS PAP! We shall see....

Alright, I shall end here. I am suprised that I am quite enthusiatic about the GE this year. Perhaps it concerns me presently and in the future. Haha. I guess its a good thing. Ok, thanks for viewing. I have enjoyed my weekend! Bye...

Wow

2011-04-25T20:06:00.002+08:00

Wow, thats what I can think of right now. I am just amazed by the things that happened today. I have got to judge by my own eyes on the things around me.

I have realised something. Most Mondays, especially standby, I have got to experience unpleasant stuff. Unpleasant as in literally something that doesn't go smooth. The last one was the Neson will be going to ASD.

Well, today is slightly better. This morning, I was instructed to go Nee Soon to make Camp Pass. Hence, I went here and there to translate info and look for that superior. Overall, he had to fetch us there. Its complex.

One thing that disgusted me was during my ride there. I did not know superior 2 was that scary. He kept pushing and saying names, blaming for one of my closer camp mates for not mentioning something earlier, where its not that guy's fault. I mean come on, u dont need to compromise till this extent right. I have eyes and ears to judge you. From then on, I know I need to draw a line from superior 2. Potential silent killer.

I will continue to observe this new person. The changes from day 1 till today is huge. Kinda authoritative and dual-faced. Aiyo. At least that superior is better towards me now.

Today is such an awe-inspiring day as I thave learn that politics is everywhere. You can't escape the fact that its directly in front of you.

I don't know. Neson was right. He told me not to be too close to him. Now I know why he said that. I am so going to be more cautious! Other than that, the day passed so quickly as I am pre-occupied with stuffs to do, making time passes really quickly.

When I am back, I saw 2 letter on my table. 1 from NTU and 1 from ICA. ICA informed me that my passport is ready for collection. NTU letter made me SOSOSO nervous. I remember very clearly that I was utterly disapponted to see 'Biological Science' as the course given to me by NTU. I am afraid that I might not get Economics as the course that I want

I jumped for joy. I finally see the word Economics written. I am so happy. I am not too sure why but I am just happy. However, I am in a serious dilemma now.

The fact that I accepted NUS Arts & Social Sciences made me settled down and accepted the course graciously. Moreover I can do Econs in this course. Now that I can go into that course that I initially wanted at NTU, wow I am seriously in a dilemma.

I will think. Eventually will still hold on the NUS FASS. Maybe its because NUS is so much better and its nearer and more accessible. I shall see.

Alright, shall end here. Yawn....

Random

2011-04-24T20:20:00.002+08:00

Yo, how's your day. Currently still feeling a little lethargic. Lack of sleep is always a prelude to catching a slight fever. Just popped 2 paracetamol. Hope I get better soon.

Met up with Shun Yu today. I was super pissed with him as he was SUPER LATE! He woke up at 2pm when he was supposed to meet me at 2pm. I was like WTH! Wasting my time man! Should have continue sleeping!

Went for lunch ALONE! Bought vege rice at Lucky Plaza where I used to buy my lunch suring breaktime when I was working in Isetan. Haha. Still as nice and filling as before. After lunch, walked around Taka and I saw Apple. Talked to him and went to Kinokuniya with him. Stayed with him for 15minutes before that LATE COMER comes.

He wants to shop for clothes. Although he was picky initially, he was able to buy something. Spent a good $200+ Haha. Quite tiring looking for clothes for him. Glad he has gotten something. End off with a tea session.

Alright, shall end here. Watching STAR AWARDS 2011 now. I remember booking in to Tekong last year feeling sucky. 1 year has passed. Sigh. 1 more year! Haha.

Take care Bye!

Too busy enjoying

2011-04-19T19:15:00.004+08:00

Hello, I am currently feeling a little unwell. Body aches and lethargic. My temperature is around 37.3 to 37.4. Hmm, guess I am on the verge of getting a fever.

Well, yesterday was worse. 38.1 degree celsius. I felt really cold and unwell on my way home from KBOX with Shun Yu. The KBOX at S*CAPE is freezing cold. Also, I was having a bad throat day. Sore throat for the entire day sucks. One of the worst singing session ever, I swear. I guess yesterday wasn't my day.

I think it has got to do with a series of activities since last week. It all started off with a lack of rest friday due to a duty the day before. Went to SRJC with Yoke Hung, eating 2 mouth watery burgers from FRESHNESS BURGER, making my body heaty. Next up, a party Friday at St James Power station with Yaya, Rups, Kat and Yi Pei. All girls. No guys are present. Sigh. Well, just got to go. It has been a while. Met up with Rups and Kat again on Saturday for Starbucks. Severely lack of rest!

Dance from 12am till 3am. The full 3 hours in the dance floor is enough to affect my ear drum for 3 days(its still affected now slightly). The music was bad at the start but was ok after a while. Overall am happy to go club once again. More to come.

A Sunday duty with a my team and an additional person who got extra. A dismount on Monday is so nice. Got home, bath, and use com. Went out to Town with parents for a gathering. Dad's Birthday on Thurs. Had Crystal Jade. Next, walked 313 waiting for Shun Yu for Kbox at 7.30pm. As said, bad voice day. Cough cough... Its the freezing cold room, heaty body, lack of water and sleep that caused my body to function abnormally.

Woke up feeling better after a good 8hours of uninterupted sleep. Fever subsided this morning. Went QSS with Neson as promised. Had out favourite Chicken Noodle! Well, fried shallots were literally BANNED. So sad, that the main character in the noodle. Haha. Taste remains as good as before.

Went for appointment for Braces. Grateful that Neson accompany. Haha. He trested me KOI after my appointment. Thanks Neson. I would say its nice going out with him. A pity its on the 2 of us. Quite gald to know this friend. Haha.

Anyway, on duty tmr. I have got to go now. Feeling slightly lethargic due to the extremely hot weather this afternoon, making me unwell again Got to rest early tonight.

Take care, drink more water!..

Food

2011-04-13T20:59:00.003+08:00

Above are pictures of food that I have enjoyed for the week. Haha. Chewy Junior is actually quite promising. Love it when its cold. Nice snack if you guys have a craving sweet and chewy piece of pastry.

Next, STANLEY's signature sandwich. Haha. ah, no big deal. Cheese on top of a sunny side up, adding tomatoes and lettuce, a healthier choice for everyone. Taste ok I guess. Still a long way to go to hit my dream Subway standard.

Next, ASIAN KITCHEN. Similar to DING TAI FENG. I still prefer DING TAI FENG. Its not fragrance enough. Not a good choice. Well, not that bad though.

Clubbing this Friday with them. Still thinking of what to wear.

Today is a tiring day. Tech store again. Anyway, as time passes, the tail of each new person in camp is showing. The fact of using rank to suppress us is kinda irritating and annoying. Not very pleasant.

Overall, the camp is peaceful at the moment. Alright, sweet dreams... Yawn..

Qing Ming 2011

2011-04-10T17:08:00.003+08:00

The yearly Qing Ming festival is here once again. Year after year, I will never fail to see people getting incense paper to pay respect to their ancestors. This tradition has been practised since the past till today. I am confident that it will go on forever whe mankind is still alive. As usual, my family will gather and pay respect to my ancestors. Every year, there will be pockets of quarrels here and there regarding the food, the timings and some irrelevant disputes. I am sad to say this. This year, I was really disappointed with the whole setting. Our first destination was not at Lim Chu Kang anymore as we gave it a miss for our convenient sake. But that's not the point. Its regarding the quarrelling. Luckily I was not involve at all. I was disappointed as there would not be a full strength to pay respect to the ancestors anymore. This gathering cum festival is not as happening as compared to the past. Well, just have to do my part as a grandchild to the deceased ancestors. As far as I am concerned, I will turn up. Hope lesser tiff amongst us will happen in future. Alright that's all for now. Had a indecisive Saturday yesterday. Took 1 hour to decide on what to eat with Kat. LOL! Till then....

Too Sudden

2011-04-04T19:45:00.007+08:00

I did not expect myself to blog this evening with lots of unbearable happenings that happened within 8 to 5pm today. I was in total despair while travelling home today. It was a different kind of sadness relative to the previous issue happened to me in camp. I just could not believe things could happened and turn out to be a negative externality to me, I would say.

I knew it. The first thing in the morning I had a prediction that today will be a bad day. I woke up 10minutes earlier than usual and I still miss the bus. I need to run for the bus 103 when I reach Serangoon. Well, that's a trivial matter as I reach camp on time.

Did first escorting duty. Something happened which I don't think I can type it out. I am not too sure why its like that but I don't think its my fault. Small matter. Can be fixed.

The intensity of the bad experiences increases as time passes. Look, I need to go through and fro to food to the regulars when actually it was already with them. He blamed me for not telling him that its in the back of the vehicle. I take that.

Next, shitty job for us to do ain't enjoyable. Perspire and sticky is what i get. Dirty and dusty is the place I go.

When I am back from there, I am so so devastated. My best prowling buddy is going to ASD. Just because someone quarrelled with Gabriel. And that someone, who is very hard up on it, literally make Gabriel come down to Sleetar for duty, giving his own stand. He even brainwashed the superiors about this.

Now, i am left with no one of my batch to talk to, except for Daniel. Its really sucky to see most of them going there. I am left alone doing duty here. I fear the insecurity.

Next up, a very last minute information that my IPPT is coming soon. Its so sudden that I cannot have enough time to train.

The worst of the worst, the actual GOOD FRIDAY off day became a dismount day. And I will have to do a Saturday duty. WTF!!!

I have talked to the SGT and he will settle with it tmr. I rather have 2 days Standby. Its not as though there is not enough duty personnel. I am going to fight for it, really. I don't wanna do duty on my Dad's Birthday!

Why is it like that. If Gabriel did not do that nonsense, he wouldn't be mad about this and everything remains unchanged.

No more Neson, unknown schedule for Good Friday week, unkown results for IPPT. Within 24hours, from a hopeful mood to a depressing mood. Sigh.

This picture was taken 1 month plus ago. Was super sad that day. Look at the Doraemon, it is crying for me.

That Feng Shui in that camp is getting bad. Bad luck strikes endlessly. I think I should bare in mind that there wouldn't be a period when there is peace and enjoyment, until someone leaves.

I am tired and sad. Help me.........

Improving

2011-04-03T20:45:00.004+08:00

I am kinda lethargic now. Am going to be real soon. Yesterday was a tiring day with full duties executed. No rain to save some of my energy.

Anyway, the week was good. I literally mean good. That person was surprisingly in good mood for the whole entire week. He shocked me on Monday, giving me NO problem and pat my back for showig him respect. I was in a state of shock.

Maybe I have passed mark of him hating me. Apparantly he shows this kind of attitude towards me this week. Its quite peaceful and easy to pass time. I am just quite contented with life now.

On Friday, I did not know that he can be that nice. Well, he may be superficial. At least, it was a good one. I just like it this way.

Perhaps the presence of the new guys made him treat us this way. As a senior or semi-senior, he shows relatively more care as told by those who ORD-ed.

Shall hope for more of these in time to come. Anyway went KBOX with Shun Yu and David on Thursday! Pictures below!

All right, I am going to stop here. Halved eyes made me even more tired. Thanks and be back soon!

Take A Break

2011-03-27T18:30:00.004+08:00

Hello people, how's your day? Haha. Its the same old routine for me. Duty after duty. Sadly, this weekend was burnt due to lack of manpower again as some of them have to go for some events.

My dismount day on Friday is spent on a camp, viewing the change of command for Chief of Army. Its a big event as it involves the army. I would say its not a total waste of time and I quite like the whole thing. It was unfortunate that there are some technical errors with the mic, affecting the parade. Other than that, it was really good. The food is good too.

It was a good gathering with Neson, Ben, Shun Yu and Denis. That's really the time we gather and have fun!

Anyway, regarding the routine mishap on me, I begin to look at the brighter side. At least I am trying to, with nice people around me to encourage me. In addition, new guys are here and perhaps I am less likely to be aimed. I really hope so.

Well, its inevitable. We can't change how a person perceive others. So long as one does not cross the border, its fine. If he does, then I will have to do something about it.

Today family day is spent with my Dad and Mum only. Bro has something to accomplish. Bought a lipstick for my cousin as today is her Birthday. Bought loose powder for mum as she wanted it. That's her present haha. Total $63! Mum went back to cook dinner while Dad drives.

Walked alone to Marina Square to buy a watch that I wanted. Didn't get it last week as I was trying to look for those push carts that may sell the same watch at a lower price. Sadly, most places do not sell that model. Hence, I have to go back to CACTUS at Marina Square to buy that watch!

Its so classic and it looks nice on me! Worth the money!

I love to walk or should I say window shopping alone. After all those nonsense in camp, its time to have a getaway from those unpleasant sight. I feel so good to walk around, looking at nice apparels and nice food. I can do whatever I want. I didn't know just taking a look at nice clothes, food etc can be so relaxing =)

I think I shall do it more often. Looking at girls at your own accord makes me feel that liberty still holds for me. Haha. I can walk wherever I want, buy whatever I want etc. Its just me me and me!

I just love window shopping. There's so many things to explore. Trust me! I will wanna try a food hunt next time.

Alright, shall stop here. Be back for more soon.....

Tired

2011-03-25T21:26:00.002+08:00

Just a short post before turning in. I lack sleeping time since last night and today is a busy day.

Rushed home to prepare myself for a viewing of Change Of Command in Army. The parade was good but sadly, the sound system caused that parade contingent to screw up some parts. Well, overall its ok.

At least the 5 of us were OK. I mean chatty enough to keep me entertain. Haha. Its nice overall.

Mounting tmr. What a sad weekend. Sigh. Its really sad la. What to do?

Anyway, I will become stronger from now on. I don't wish to be the one enduring and he knows nothing. I will bring my courage and guts out one fine day and go to him. He is getting my nerves and crossing the boundary now. I need to portray a strong and firm image! Just you wait. Will control of course.

Alright, my eyes are closing. Till then........

Tiring Day

2011-03-23T20:23:00.002+08:00

Today is a mentally and physically tiring day. Didn't really have the time to rest. In addition, that person is going crazy again.

Sitting at that place, staring at the China man doing things ain't good. Its so boring and worse is, that place is badly ventilated. Wearing the LBV aggravate the feeling.

Lack of manpower today is seriously bad. Have to do in total of 5 hours of that uncomfortable duty. Luckily there are some rest in between.

However, the mentally tiring part is of course the routine stuff that I post. That person is here to 'disturb' me again. Its so nonsense man. I wasn't doing anything and I was so called chased out. I was having lunch there and he said that I stink the whole room. WTF! Everyone is eating at that place.

Sometimes, facing him is not a good thing. I am not afraid to face him but I am just afraid that I spoiled his mood. I seemed to be a pain in his ass. Really. I think I am kinda fined blacklisted by him. What to do?

The most unbearable part is that, he actually told the new spec who came in on Monday that I am a person who is untrustable. Tell him to give me MORE weekends duty. Basically, he wants the new spec to HATE me like how he does. I mean what is this? Is really unfair to me. I felt really bad hearing this. Its really crossing the border. All these little things I am just going to accumulate. I will endure and if this persist, there goes and I will just go all the way.

This friday I will have to go to some event, which falls on my dismount. I am on duty this Saturday. Basically its a sign of being 'bullied'!

I really regret extracting my wisdom teeth at that period. I should have done it when new birds are here. This kind of torturing from him is worst than any other forms. Try it and you will know.

Enough is enough. But he seems to be playing happily with his authority. He doesn't have any ethics in him when he is in a foul mood. This is bad.

Everytime when I am home, I feel less pessimistic. Whenever I am in camp, the feeling is always bad. How, I need some cousellor seriously. Sigh.

I never encounter this type of problems before till the extend couselling is needed. Thanks man. Thanks for that. You will be a damn good person in life. Do more of this little things behind me and you will go far. I wish you the very best when you leave!

Busy enjoying day

2011-03-22T20:52:00.003+08:00

Sing and sing and sing. Went to KBOX @ Mt Faber with Sista Sharon. Planned to go for it as it has been a while since we visited KBOX.

Before the enjoyable KBOX session that lasted about 4 hour plus, I did many things. I was rushing throughout the whole. Reach home at 9.45am and rushed myself. By 10.15am, I was out of the house.

I was rushing to go for my Braces appointment at 10.45am. After appointment at about 11.30am, rushed to Bugis to pay respect for Godess of Mercy. I have always been a devoted Buddist and that's why I go again. Some more tmr is a Big Day for Godess of Mercy, those buddist will know.

Anyway, rush back to Vivo at about 12.30pm. Its like Seletar to Whampoa, then to Outram to Bugis, then to Vivo again. Afterwhich rush for lunch at Subway to go for KBox at 2pm. LOL!!

Talked to Sista Shar about her new Boyfriend. Haha. Happy for her as finally she can feel the happiness of being in a relationship. Congrats.

She left early at about 4plus 5. I continue singing till 6.30pm. Damn, only found out the there is this recording system at KBOX Mt Faber. Only manage to record 3 songs all sang by me. My goodness its damn damn cool! Love it lots. Swear that I am going back to record more.

Its like for me to listen to my pitches. Overall I would rate myself 7.5/10. Perhaps I was too tired to sing after few hours of singing. Most likely will record more in future. Haha!

Its so cool la. I have the songs now as u can bluetooth those recordings to your phone. Now its in my com. Yeah yeah! SO fun!

Anyway, so tired now. Need to sleep soon. Take care and will be back tmr night =)

Nice Food

2011-03-20T18:14:00.003+08:00

Apart from the unpleasant life that I am undergoing, I tried my best to pamper myself with good food. Good food never fails to make me feel good. Its something that makes me feel that there's still something that make me feel that life is not that bad. I have got to taste the good thing that mother earth has for us. Time pass faster with nice food around.

Such sweeping statements are stupid I know. But I cannot succumb to good food even though it may be slightly unhealthy. I try to make a balance as far as I am concerned.

This post consists of 2 things that I wanna recommend. First up is COLD STONE CREAMERY. This ine cream shop sells a great variety of ice cream that is freshly imported from US. Its located at Orchard Central and business started last Saturday. I tried cheesecake fantasy. I dare say, its very nice! I give a 9/10.

Actually I have tasted Cold Stone Creamery Ice Cream in Taiwan last July after my POP. It taste the same and I am still loving it. Can have it more often now =) Well, prices are a little high but its worth it I would say.

Next up, FRESHNESS BURGER at NEX. This fast food outlet is the only outlet in Singapore as for now. Its originates from Japan. Its somewhat similar to MOS BURGER. However, I feel that the burgers are nicer both visually and in taste. I have not tried those beef burger as I can't but it seems better than others. Its located at basement of NEX beside Cold Storage. Go try it, its really promising =) Best is, its not that expensive. I rather spend that amount on it than on Mac.

Alright, that's all I have. Shall post more when I go for next FOOD HUNT! Take care =)

Saturday

Met up with Rups yesterday for dinner. It was a fast one as both of us were really tired then. JUST ACIA for dinner again. I was fine with anything but eventually followed what we usually have for a meal. Haha. Its really a nice place for a meal and chatting session for us. Went for a short walk around Marina Square. Gave up buying a very very nice watch as I know I can get the exact same one at other places at a lower price. Hence went Suntec.

Sadly, it was sold out. Walked around and eventually puchased 2 tops from NEW LOOK for $23.90. Am still gonna find the watch this coming week.Will not give up as the watch looks VERY NICE on me =)

Before meeting up with Rups, met up with Jack and Marcus. Marcus is already a one month soldier. I still remember quite clearly that I met him one day before he enlist. I am quite happy for him as he slim down a bit. Hope that he will slim down more as I am sure he will look better.

That's the new him. Face sharpen a little!

Lack of sleep this few days. Shall sleep more tonight. Take care =)

OG Private Sale 2011!

2011-03-16T18:51:00.005+08:00

Its the annual OG Private Sale 2011. This year, the queue was so shocking that I almost couldn't believe it. It went round and round Orchard Point. Me and my mum waiting for at least 20 minutes before we could squeeze in to the depatmental store that is filled with people from all ages. Guess all are here to reap the discounts of 20%+(5/10/15/20%), depending on the brand. Sales items enjoy additional discounts too. Such a rare opportunity to grab whatever you need, so why wait. Haha.

I went straight to the watch department as I have the urge to get a PUMA watch that cost only $70. The colour that I like is sold out. I was quite shocked as I reached there 2 hours since its opening and the colour that I want is sold out. Well, eventually didn't get the other ones.

Went to level 4 next. This level is filled with aunties. They are waiting for the good deals. When my mum said that she wanted the mop, before I could even turn and have a look at what is it, its gone. Those Aunties are really swift at all these VALUE FOR MONEY stuffs. My mum wanted to get one too but she was too small to even squeeze through. Hence, I took my courage to squeeze through them. Managed to get one set for my family. All 100 plus sets were sold out within 2 hours. Guess it must be good price.

I was laughing non stop after getting the mop set. I saw this aunty SELF SERVICING. She told the stock of 4 herself, apparently quite heavy, and open it up at one corner. She managed to get one for herself and others were rushing to get the other 3. EPIC!

After which, scan through the entire store and finish shopping at about 4pm. Oh gosh a good 4.5 hours of shopping. At least I have gotten something that I like and some necessities at really low price!

Disappointed as I did not get a watch that I like. Wanted to get Adidas or Puma watch as they are on 20%+10% discount. Really good price. Guess the designs did not appeal to me that much. Perhaps next year.

Anyway, so tired today. I have got to thank my schedule for giving me this off day for a annual shopping spree day. So thankful. I would say its better than ISETAN private sale as the items at OG are relatively more suitable for me. Just slightly.

Alright, as for now, I am still lying low in camp. I tried to open up slightly. Still think I am hated by him. Well, guess I don't really think about it. I have got more important things to think of. So long as he does not cross my line, I would be more than happy.

Really glad that the Private Sale falls on today, my off day. Really enjoy the shopping with mum and Sis Jo. Ok, shall end here. =)

Tired

2011-03-14T20:07:00.002+08:00

Went to NUS OPEN HOUSE 2011! I am actually quite tired but for my future, i will pull through it.

In the nutshell, I am still a bit hesistant on going into FASS, although many people are yearning to get in. As usual, the main concern is language.

Went Ding Tai Feng and ColdStone creamery, new at Orchard Central. You guys should try. Its really awesome. A bit ex though haha. Well, should pamper yourself once a while with those lovely ice cream =)

Anyway, tired day today. Fatigue work in the afternoon for about 3 hours without rest. Dirty, sticky and disgusting. Yucks!

Anyway, got a hard disk drive 500GB for $65. Hitachi brand. Cheap and good.

Wednesday off day will be going to OG private Sale 2011 held annually! Wow I am going to shop till I drop!!!

What is he thinking?

2011-03-10T11:18:00.003+08:00

Clouds are clearing these days. The rate at which its clearing is optimal. I felt really contented and did whatever I am supposed to since last week. Perhaps I have a chance to get out of the unfavourable zone.

Of course, I have been expecting for the worst. Those clouds will not vanish in just a few days. It will be back anytime of the day. Its a matter of whether he wants to give me trouble or not.

Somehow or rather, I felt that he will not give trouble. Apparantly he did not. More attention was given to other problems.

However, was being his target early in the morning. He was piss with something and lectured some seniors. Apparantly I came back to return something and that I cycled on a railing which he hates people doing it. Regrettably he saw it and gave me a 30 sec to 1minute 'scolding'. I was saying sorry for 3 times before letting me off, telling me to park the bike properly. Was thankful for only 1 minute.

One of the senior even apologise to me that I am being scolded for nothing. I am so used to it already. Just a question to ponder, what is he actually thinking. I am seriously confuse.

Well, its hard to know. Bits and pieces here and there about him are enough. Just that he does not show his true self.

Anyway, my MP 2 I/C is going off. He is going to ORD tomorrow. Many, especially those seniors who ORD-ed, is against him. I don't know why but I am just not them. He is nice to me and he does his job well. Although he have done something that casued me in trouble, I do not hate him as its partially my fault and its also a trivial matter. He gave me of days when others couldn't get it. I should be thankful to him.

Its sad to see him ORD as there would not be anymore intermediate superiors that can help us with our schedule for the time being. This 6 months here is actually quite fast and a memorable one. No matter what, thank you so much for everything this 6 months. Will remember you John!

There are 3 more others who is going to ORD tmr too. Though I am not that close to them, they are nice guys who gain respect from others. Wish them all the best too =)

Alright, going off. IT fair is here again. Thinking of getting a hard disk. See ya =)

Clearing

2011-03-02T16:06:00.002+08:00

I have been waiting for this day for about 2 weeks. Its about 14 days. Or should I say more than that? I don't know. I don't wanna count.

Those darkest days of 2011 so far has been subsided currently. In the nutshell, there is this golden opportunity when everyone comes back to get a meeting or lecture by him. I seize this golden opportunity. This is how it goes about...

Actually, I was really really devastated and upset yesterday. My friend got screwed because of me. I am just another jinx who cause trouble to people seriously. Felt really bad yesterday. I went emotional again the whole afternoon. In addition, this close friend of mine discussed on my issue again, seriously making me teared a little. All I can say is, we inevitably make use of one another.

I kept blaming myself for that stupid mistake made. I stressed myself for the irrationale behaviour. I am just another useless and helpless creature in the place that is just waiting to get F*** anytime by him. I am as good as nobody, seriously.

Last night was so far the most emotional night I have ever encounter. Called my closest friend to talk about it. I was on the verge of tearing every grave emtional crisis.

Luckily, my cousin called me to advise me on what to do, which is to bring my guts and confidence up to talk to him. Ask him directly on what have I done wrong, what is it that I have made him unhappy about me.

So happen that this morning, everyone is recalled to have a meeting with him. During the talk, I have anticipated that he will aim at me. To no surprise, he did. I was quite surprise I was not angry at all. In fact, I felt really apologetic and regretful.

My eyes were really wet while he was talking. I did not know that I was that selfish and self-centred in my behaviour from his point of view. Maybe I was wrong at the very start.

After all his talk, I sincerely waited for everyone to go off and look for him personally. All I think was, I just wanna tell whatever I can from the bottom of my heart. Indeed, the conversation was pleasant. At least he knows that I admit my mistake. Whatever I experienced today, I have to bare ALL the consequences. I get it deep down.

He made me think a lot. He made me realise that doing the logical things may not work as this is SAF. I need to think for others who have cover my duties when I was not around. In the nutshell, I am already too emotional to ever say much. He knew that if he continues, I may just burst off.

However, after the mere 10minutes conversation, a BIG ROCK is flushed down the drain, meaning it has been cleared. Though not fully, I am happpy that I will no longer feel that scared coming to that place. I will not use the word phobia from now on as I feel so much better now.

I have learnt a lot. I learned that when a person is nasty towards you, it is always not the case that he/she HATES you. I need to look at a broaded perspective and not only what I think is right.

Time in future at that place is left oblivious for me. All I can say he may not aim at me as frequent. I hope so.

I am quite clear now that he is a good commander. Perhaps its the way he treats his men sometimes, quite badly. Maybe he wants the best out of us?

Anyway, I see lights in future now. Storm is over. I am waiting for rainbow or at least a fine day to arrive asap.

That's all for now.Phew!!!

Sir, I know I have did something that made you unhappy. I know my mistake and I wouldn't make it again. Really sorry sir.... ="(

In the process

2011-02-28T12:00:00.002+08:00

Sitting in front of the computer, doing something that makes me relax, blogging, is such a bliss. Feeling so much better as compared to staying at the place where pressure is experienced.

Hmm, I seriously do not know what to say. Maybe I am getting numb towards that issue. I am sick and tired of thinking of that issue, which makes me burn off lots of brain cells. I am literally tired, both physical and mental. 6 duties within a week is no joke man. Technically I am in that place everyday! Haha. Well, I should not be complaining as its 'fair' to others. Oh, and I have got my Saturday!

Yesterday, 2 issues were informed. 1 major and 1 minor. Initially was told to stay back till the issue is solved but luckily was able to go as per normal today. The minor issue may be a major issue in time to come. Sorry, can't mention anything.

Anyway, feeling a little better as time passes. Met my darlings less Kenny at NEX on Saturday for a catch up. Enjoyed even though its just that few hours!

I just have to endure and endure. Endure trains your patient, leading a better self. I will secure this in me. I promise I will try. Thanks guys.

All thanks to people around me to guide me here and there. Without them, I think I can't survive the longest and darkest week. They make me stay positive and get ready for potential unpleasant sights on me.

Love Monday dismount days as I can spend time with both of my parents! They seriously give me courage to face it. I love them, wholeheartedly!

As for me, its in suspense. Shall update again....

Unpleasant Days

2011-02-24T20:41:00.003+08:00

I am back with more unhappy things to say, unfortunately. Feeling both physically and mentally tired. I give up totally man. I just want this to stop like asap. Please.

Yesterday, I thought that its improving. I was totally wrong again. He came in the afternoon and I remember opening the gate for him. The same expression was seen everytime he comes in. Went back to rest after that shift.

I was told to do some job that was not supposed to be done by duty personnel. It should be done by those who were on standby. I did not think too much as the GC said that there is not enough manpower. So I step in to do it. I was Ok with it, really.

Felt strange when the GC came a while later. He seemed like sopt checking me, whether did I take the opportunity to slack. However, I still did not think outside the box.

The next thing I know was duty partner told me something. Never have I thought of him doing that to me. Now I know. Its him who instructed the GC to let me do it. Duty partner was nice enough to tell me to beware, he is targetting me.

Emo the rest of the day. I tried ways to cover it up but to no avail. I was quite down all the way till my first duty at 9pm, when I feel so much better talking my duty mate.

I was really appreciative of the GC and G2 to cover all things up, making it totally not obvious that its actually him who instructed me to do it.

Till now, I still could not eradicate the phobia in going back to camp. I am trying to. I did not expect that it turned out to be that painful and torturing. I need to endure, which is what i can ONLY do.

I am praying, praying hard that his mood turns better. I really hope I don't affect him for no ood reason.

Wanna thank Yoke for accompanying me to KBOX today. Need that break severely! It helped me relax a bit. He did tell me some opinion and is a good listener. Grateful for that! Thanks Yoke Hung.

Right now, I just hope for time to pass quickly. This rainy season(not literally raining) for me is kind of a bad omen. Bad bad days are experienced. I need a break. I need to cry it all out and be strong after that.

I hope I really can pull through.........

It's coming

2011-02-22T14:38:00.006+08:00

It's coming, it's coming. I can feel that the unpleasant days are just around the corner. The down period is gushing my way in no time. I will have to be mentally prepared.

I was actually quite shock to see his reaction. He was not angry at all. He was just a little agitated but did not scold me. I am actually quite thankful and grateful for that. I swear.

However, after much thoughts, this is not the case. How can he be so nice to me when I know that he did talk behind my back when I was not around. He was generous with his words too, trying to demeaning my character and attitude. I have no more pride, I have no more guts, I have no more face to face the people at the place where I have to face for another year. I felt that I have left nothing after coming back from a break that I will have to have it.

I know he will not let the matter rest. Indeed, this morning, the predicted unfair treatment is shown. Some others were not doing things properly but ended up with 2 sentences of mere scolding. While on the other hand, the "bad" guy as deem will have to scolded in front of the others. Well done man!

I know I am the next target. Going for something that can benefit my future health leads to such discrimination. What on earth is this? I have informed in advance to them and this is what I get. They cannot say much but to pin point on whatever mistakes that I make. There are definitely more to come in the near future.

Doing Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday for this week is enough to drain me out. Am doing more prowls so that I can sleep till I book out the next day and that's what I get. Perhaps I have just wake up from sleep and hence forgotten about the position to stand. That does not mean to take the chance to shoot me till I can't have a say. Sigh...

I am terribly in need of a cousellor. Or rather just a person to talk to. This kind of treatment is really horrendous. I just don't understand what is he or they are up to. What are they thinking?

This week will be a long and draggy week. This week may be one of the worst week in this year. No choice, I will just have to pull through it!

Other than that, I know myslf well. I can sare say that I have put in my best effort to do my job well. I tried to push myself and gave in at least 80% of my effort. But all I receive was a cold shoulder, bad impression, bad attitude from them. What is this?

Currently lethargic and feeling sucky. There is a phobia in me right now. I don't know how to face them. When I face them, aall I receive is scolding and nagging that spoils my day. Tell me, save me people! I am so vex!

Last MC

2011-02-18T17:08:00.003+08:00

Time flies. End of my MC. I went to take out stitches for my wisdom tooth. Dentist gave me 1 more day MC for today. Am so thankful and grateful. Really.

Going to take out all the cash in all HONG BAOs collected later on. This year, there seems like a rise in total amount received. Seems like the economy is getting better. Year 2010 sees a 14.5% growth. A double digit growth in so many years. Haha.

In addition, I have got to receive more from my mum's relative as they got married in 2010. Her friends also gave it to me. With Hong Baos collected and the increase in money in 30% of the Hong Baos relative to last year, I have got to receive more money this year! Haha.

I would wanna save all these amount and serves as a back up to fight for the upcoming inflation, most likely creeping inflation. Inflation is the greatest concern this year and all of us are definitely gonna hit by it. The first few months this year will have the most impactful month.

Couldn't upload the Hong Baos pictures but its ok. Next time then.

This few days of resting is good for me as it recharges my energy, for at least a little. Tmr will be my duty day! Most likely feeling unpleasant at the start but should be fine after a while. Haha!

Oh, my lovely ex-classmate Marcus enlisted yesterday. Have given me my support and all. Hope he is OK. Haha.

Shall update more next week. Next week will be quite hard up on me as I am doing duty on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday! Haha. Tuesday, Thurs and Saturday will be free. I need a life! Anyone? Movie or Kbox etc?

Alright, take care! =)

Recap

2011-02-14T20:24:00.002+08:00

Awww. So nice. I am so glad that I did that since June 2007. I am happy to see my changes. I enjoy myself viewing the past entries written since June 2007.

Was browsing my past entries. I really cannot remember some of those incidents that had or has happened. Some issues strucks me. It reminds me that at that instance, a particular thing happened for a reason. I couldn't figure out what was the reason but eventually did as I continue to read on.

Some post makes me smile, some post makse me wonder, some post makes me tear while some post are just written for the sake of it. All those ups and down these years made me grow. It surfaces out the bad and ugly side of me and also the good and pleasant side of me. This blog, as far as I am concern, is my precious.

If I have the time, I promise, I have keep it updated. Some things can be left in mind as memories. But its the little little things that blog reminds me in detail as to who I actually am. Thanks for sharing who I am in these past years.

My English was not that good in 2007. I see myself improving over the years. Though not significant, I am contented. I like to keep my sentenses simple as its easy to convey to others, unless I am writing an essay.Hope to improve me in time to come.

Blog helps me to pour out my unhappiness. It is my companion so far. He is my friend when my actual friend is out of reach. One more thing, I uploading most of my pictures here. My com crashed and luckily some of these photos are saved here. Hence I can retrieve it back again! Thanks!

Too much to comment. To summarise, I am so contented with this blog and also I am gald to have it then. I will maintain it as far as I am concerned.

Alright, shall end here. Wanna watch the 9pm drama later on, looks good. As far for now..

Happy Valentine's Day 2011

2011-02-14T17:59:00.005+08:00

The annual Valentine's Day is here once again. How are you going to spend your time with your love ones? Is this a special day to you or is it just another ordinary day?

Most of the couples will meet up on this very special day to spend the precious time with their precious one. Seeing them hugging, kissing, holding on to roses, holding hands etc are a common sight in Town. I have longed to be part of them since 18(maybe). Haha. However, fate did not allow me to do so till now. And when will it be?

Being single, I will spend the day with my family and friends. They have always been my Valentines. They are my pillars of support in my life. Without them, I would not be the cuurent Stanley Ho.

Being in a relationship is not as easy as it is. However, it is also not as intricate as one may think. As for myself, I will want trust and good communication between the 2, and that can at least sustain for a while, maybe. Flowers, cupcakes, all these are not essential if the relationship is strong. Everyday is Valentine's Day if both parties are happy in the relationship.

Today, I spent my time with my family. I remember very clearly that I spent my 2008 Valentines Day with Rups. Then, we were really close that people mistaken us as couples. However, we are not but bestmates. Haha.

Last year, Valentines Day falls on Lunar New Year. I got to see all my relatives on that day. Hence, its kinda like forgotten. Haha! Poor florist whose business were affected.

Anyway, just crapping some words here to serve as an entry. I am still trying to search for the right one, the one that suits me most. Who knows, this year may be good? Haha.

Anyway, to all the couples out there, enjoy your day alright. HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!

Tai Sui太岁

2011-02-13T20:00:00.003+08:00

TAI SUI!I believe some of you may have heard of the them, especially the Chinese or those Taoist. I am not a Taoist but a Buddist. However, I believe in praying TAI SUI for a smooth and good year ahead.

There are 60 generals who are highly regarded as TAI SUI. They are selected by the jade-emperor as they were the ones who helped him one way or another. They are tasked to take care of the people on earth every year, each responsible for a year.

In each year, there will be 4 animals affected, both directly and indirectly. Those born in the year of the animal that were affected will be advised to pay respect to TAI SUI for a smooth year ahead.

As to how thy calculate and why is it 60, there are numerous reasons for it, which is a hassle to be said. All I wanna say is this year, I am affected, indirectly. I chose to believe it but not believing it totally. I have prayed and so far I am still alright.

So those who were born in the year of the Rabbit, Rooster, Rat and Horse, it is adviseable to pay a respect to this year's TAI SUI FAN NING General.

For full facts if u wanna see, u can check online Haha. Mine are just too summarised and brief. Pictures of all the 60 TAI SUI can be found too, they are cool!

Alright, am posting this as I find it interesting reading on the Internet as to how they derive the 60 TAI SUI. Hereby posting for fun. Haha.

Am going for Mahjong later. Yesterday's luck was good. Won about 50! Hope to have more later! Take care!

Yaya's 21st Photo update!

2011-02-13T18:02:00.005+08:00

These are some photos taken during Yaya's 21st at Pasir Ris Coasta Sands. Sorry couldn't upload all cos its tedious and slow. More at facebook.

Overall I really had lots of fun. Being GEEK is not that difficult afterall. I think I protrayed a real GEEK image with hunch back and the spectacles. Haha.

I like my hair too. I like it when my fringe is pushed up like those vintage style. Haha. In another word, 'curry pok' hairstyle. Haha. Think I suit that.

Anyway, like most of the things that day. Enjoyed playing BlackJack till midnight. Most importantly, I am glad that Yaya enjoyed herself, cos its 21st!

Oh and she like the present that I have given her. Haha. Havainas and Nike bottle. Definitely practical!

Alright. Hope to meet my darlings asap. Miss the time when we have our meals together, talking about anything under the sun! Guys, I miss you all!

Photos update

2011-02-12T11:20:00.007+08:00

I have not been uploading pictures recently. Cos my com was reformatted due to some unforeseen circumstances. I have tried my best to resolve it though,

Anyway, here are some pictures that was taken during Chinese New Year period.

Sorry, I did not put in order. Yeah, those are some photos taken during Chinese New Year 2011! Its kinda routine year after year. Nothing special. I still enjoy it though Haha. How's my family dressing every year? Think this year is average only? But some say not bad.

Alright. Take care!

Wisdom teeth surgery

2011-02-10T22:07:00.002+08:00

Everything was usual and routine. I had 9hours of beauty sleep last night too. I should say I have ample rest at home these 2 days. I am ready for today's surgery.

Felt just a little nervous before entering the operating threatre. I was told to change to those blue uniform, which all patients have to wear.

When I was there, I saw the dentist and a few other assistants. One of which is the anaesthologist. When I breath those anaesthetic, it took me like 10 seconds and I can really feel that I am going to sleep.

The next thing I know was, the surgery was done. Anaesthetic slowly wears off. I can only feel that my mouth is kinda numb. A lot of phleagm is stuck between nostril and mouth. I cannot breathe properly.

I tried to tilt in such a way I can breathe normally. My mum came no long after that. Hmm, all I can say going throught GA is ok. At least I don't feel the pain of extracting 4+1/2 teeth out.

Came home at about 2plus with the accompliment of mum. Took some porridge and slept till 6plus. Felt slightly better now I guess.

I feel that my mouth is emptier. LOL. A little not use to it. I wanna thank SAF for paying this medical bill. I only paid $6 for the bed charge for a $400 plus surgery.

Anyway, I got to sleep now. Most likely will be painful tmr and also swollen. This 1 week I will stay at home to rest rest and rest.

PS: Finally gotten over this hassle!

Headache

2011-02-09T16:30:00.003+08:00

I am still having heading now. I slept quite a bit yesterday but still feeling the impact now. Its painful and torturing. Argh!!

Going for wisdom tooth surgery tmr. Feeling a little nervous for tmr. I wonder how would it be! i was told to on GA. There is a certain but small degree of risk which I was my main concern. I need to extract all 4 at one go. What a chore man!

This few days have been quite HAPPENING for me. Both good and bad. I am really praying hard for the good days to be coming soon!

Rest rest rest. I need more of you.

Start of the Year

2011-02-08T15:41:00.002+08:00

This few days have been kinda busy for me! Busy travelling from one place to another. Busy playing poker cards and Mahjong. Busy attending friend's 21st. Busy collecting Ang Baos etc. I am totally drained out. Day 2 of Chinese New Year, did 4 prowl without resting on intervals, making me lack of sleep. Together with all the unhealthy goodies, its not surprising that I am under the weather.

Took off day yesterday as I need some rest and also y BTT. Managed to pass the test with 49/50. Luckily I had the e-trial before taking the test. After the test, I straight away book my ftt and the PDL. Waited for about 40 minutes for it!

Went for lunch and one more visiting to my ex-colleagues. After which, home sweet home.

This few days my stomach has been quite bad! Cramp and stop repeatedly. Nothing came out eventually! Maybe its all the bad bacteria for various food sources.

And this morning, when I was preparing to go back to camp, I had a BAD one man! Seriously its torturing me! It makes me nausea too. Its something like what I had one day before MP POP day! I couldn't take it and hence I decided to report sick outside.

Going through the superiors isn't an easy task. The tone seems to sound like the diarrhoea isn't genuine. At that moment, I just dunno what to say. Cos its that coincident! Luckily I was granted the permission.

And here I am resting with 2 days MC. I am going for a wisdom tooth surgery on Thurs. I need ample rest. Am at home after seeing the doctor till now. Lack of sleep is really BAD Bad bad!

How i felt? I seem to be the devil of the week that caused so much trouble in camp. I seem to make the other men do extra duty because of my absense. Well, I don't think thats a concern cos I am really not feeling well! This is inevitable I guess.

4.5 months here, I enjoyed 2010 year end the most! Now that everything is back to square 1, life is hard on me. I have been pin-pointed numerous times for my appointment etc. I guess, being a floater is the best. Must keep it extremely low!

I feel bad for unintentionally creating problems! But I cant do much seriously! All I can say is when I am back, I dun mind 'returning' duties to those who had covered for me.

Alright, ending here! Headache now! Sigh!

Lunar New Year 2011!

2011-02-03T21:09:00.002+08:00

'Gong Hei Fad Choi!' That is how cantonese wishes Happy New Year to each and everyone. There is a sense of closeness saying in dialect than normal Chinese or English. I myself wishes those seniors in Cantonese.

Haha. This new year came too rush and too fast. I have not have ample time to clean up and get prepared for the once a year festive season. In addition, my perception on CNY changes quite a bit this year. I do not anticipate that much for it. Its just another year when I get my ANG PAOs for additional spending and also a mini catch up session with my relatives.

This year, I mean Day 1, its seems to be lesser people seen in each place. Uncle has not been feeling well. Cousin Sis did not attend my most senior relative. Her place is located at Senkang now instead of the Serangoon. Next up, mum side's relative, the mood isn't there. So few people attended. Some married, some not free. Some came and went off early. Its such a different CNY relative to the previous years. This dampen the mood even further. However, Ang Paos are still as rich as previous years!

Anyway, I enjoy it though. Just felt the changes year by year. I was asked "When are you bringing back a girlfriend?'. Oh My God I can't believe it man! Those typical questions Haha!

Alright, I couldn't upload photos to my com as the com broke down yesterday by my Bro. Now its a reformatted version and all my datas are gone! GONE! Lovely photos etc are all gone! Luckily blogs and memory cards are present! Haha! Will upload it once its working.

Duty tomorrow. I should have enough sleep I guess! Haha! Got to wash up and sleep now Bye!

Rain and Rain

2011-01-30T12:44:00.001+08:00

"Pita Peta", is it how you spell it? Oh well you know what I mean. Haha. I guess that is heard throughout the whole of Singapore since Friday.

The rain did us good yesterday with many duties being cancelled. I am slightly at the more unlucky side as the midnight duties are not cancelled. It rained exactly 1 hour after each duties that executed. What luck. The other team was so lucky. Night duties are all cancelled! Sigh. Well, its ok I guess. At least I have more than enough rest throughout the 24hours. Keep resting and resting. The word to descibe is 'SHIOK'! Shiok to sleep with this weather.

My favourite time was during the gym session, when we have non-stop stories and jokes to share. Oh, I am going to miss this when I am transferred to another camp in the same unit. Will treasure standby days with you all.

Today's off day started off with a medium intensity downpour, causing my whole bag to be wet. I mean very wet. Its like soaked in a pail of water. Damn! As usual, took the bus to NEX and we had our long-awaited CAFE CARTEL breakfast. This might be the first and last Cafe Cartel breakfast with them before I am transferred to the other camp. But I enjoyed it though.

Had a satisfied haircut near my house. At least I see some style than the previous common army guys style. Hope it matahces well with my Lunar New Year outfit.

4 more days to Lunar New Year. Damn, time really flies. I could still remember Lunar New Year in 2010 clearly. Time seems to pass faster and faster each yearor no reason. Haha.

I will be going for my Basic Theory Test on & Feb and a Wisdom tooth surgery on 10Feb. Yaya's birthday celebration will be on 5th Feb and will have to think of what to wear for the theme GEEK. Everything seems so pack. Today, I will have to do area cleaning, a thorough one and at night, will be heading to Chinatown for last minute shopping for CNY stuffs. This 2 weeks will be quite hard up. Haha. Its ok, will soon be over.

All I just wish for is a HAPPY duty team mates for next week and enjoy as much as I can for Chinese New Year 2011! Hope you guys enjoy too. See ya!

Let it go

2011-01-27T18:15:00.002+08:00

It has been a while since i flip those pages in my priceless source of materials that pulled me through the A levels. I did not dump it away last year as I carried a sense of unreluctant due to the fact that they made me get those 'A(s)' and a PASS in subjects that I am weak at!

Finally, after a year plus "rotting" in my room, finally cleared 70% of them. The remaining 30% are those that I couldn't bare to throw. I put it neatly in my cupboard and most likely dumping it if I do not have space for my stuffs in future.

Cleaned my house this afternoon as Lunar New Year is coming and realise I have lots and lots of unwanted and useless things that I can't bare to throw. Haha. However, it brings back good memories. I love it when I see those HARD WORK and annotations on my notes! =) Thank you SRJC for all your wonderful notes! =)

Well, I am kinda frustrated now. Why? Its due to my internet connection! Its giving me headache now! I wasted about 45mins following the customer service officer's instruction to solve the problem. Afterall, I just need to switch off the modem and on it back. However the problem persisted! The root cause is not solved!

Now I am swtiching it off again when the problem surface! What a luck today! =[

Existence of a nasty person

2011-01-24T13:00:00.002+08:00

I was enjoying my drama at a late Sunday morning in place where I do my duties. Not too long thereafter, I began to feel lethargic. After a tasty lunch, I sat on the sofa and took a 30 minutes rest. All I know was I will head straight to the bed at 1.30pm.

I had a weird dream. A dream that is funny and weird. Or it can also be a hint that unlucky things might happen on me. This kind of dream may hint that I may have people who may pose threat, stress or unfavourable sight on me. I woke up with a shock but continue the nice after sleep after that.

When I woke up, I had a terrible diarrhoea. To me, that was not really a big issue. After releasing, time pass as normal as before.

I slept at 2am this morning and woke up at 7.45am, waiting to come home. I have an intention in mind, which is to inform a superior on my medical appointment tomorrow. Not that I have expected, all I recieved was a scolding. A scolding that is quite hurting. I am deemed someone who has problems in my character just because I did not inform earlier. I suppose its the unclear instructions given. Why must it be always me me and me? I seemed to be a F up man, a sub-standard man and a irresponsible person! * Is there a relationship between the dream and this?*

A lecture in the morning ain't good. First thing in the morning and all I have receieved was that kind of mood-spoiling treatment! However, I was not that one who got scolded the most, it was my other guard coms. Sigh.

This week will be a long long week! The 2IC is off for an ORD training. No one is helping us. We got to reach THEM directly!

I sometimes contradict myself. I am saying that HE is better now after going through a period of training. However, he is like the same when it comes to lecturing us. We can't even have a say in something, or rather, ONE FKing single thing! All we ask for is a better and nicer tone towards us and that we may respect MORE!

Getting a good posting may need have a price to pay, which is to endure through this kind of things. Here to vent it out so that I may feel better!

Alright, I am done! Just hpe not to get F during CNY period, if not Year of the Rabbit will be BAD LUCK! Haha! Chaos!

First Tiramisu making!

2011-01-18T17:57:00.003+08:00

Hello guys, how are you today? Today is a tiring day for me I would say. Mixing, beating, folding, pouring etc, all drained out my energy! I was pretty shag after everything was done. And that's my first attempt in making Tiramisu.

I have got the recipe from Kat and I have got to experience making it with her. Its easy but test ones ability to mix and fold the Marscapone Cheese. Patients and skills are needed to make the best Tiramisu!

The aftermath of making this dessert is still Ok. Washing up is not a chore at all. The most tiring part is the folding of the eggs and cheese! Need more practise. Overall, a satisfied Stanley!

Today is quite well spent. However, after doing it all by myself, I felt that making desserts, pasties or in short, food ain't that easy. Its a skill that one needs experience and time to achieve before making the best dinings or satisfing desserts.

Since its that tedious, I promise myself to make it only when necessary! Maybe for this CNY, I wouldmake maybe 2 more for my close ones as requested by Dad. I would not wanna do it again after that. Its tiring! May wanna try something else!

Its in the fridge now. not sure whether its sucessful or not! Think should be OK! be back for the results! =)

Long await mini family gathering

2011-01-06T11:16:00.002+08:00

1st of Jan is just an ordinary day for me each year. In my impression, is either I will be working or I will be at home doing the routines. However, this 1st of Jan 2011, I chose to spend it fruitfully and meaningfully with a mini family gathering!

That few hours of gathering is enjoyable, even thought we didn't do anything much. We sat down and had our dinner and shop for just a short while and settled down at the Mac to rest. The kind of bond with them is felt by me. Although we are brought up differently and that our age gap is quite hug, we are close and I am proud of it. Our topics are really focused and is always that fun.

My favourite was that jump shots that we had. Sis Carol failed many times in attempting to get a nice jump shot of me and Samuel. We had like 3 to 4 jumps before capturing a nice one. Haha. Ended off with all of our images captured by 2 Germans! Haha

I seriously would love to have more of such gathering! The next one will be most likely be on CNY, which is soon! Haha! Just hope for the best to all of them =)

ALright, shall end this post. Going to SAFRA JURONG at 6pm tonight for 1AMB Anniversary dinner! Hope its good and ope to have an OFF DAY tmr *fingers cross*!

Happy New Year 2011!

2011-01-01T13:12:00.004+08:00

How is your party last night? Countdown at home with steamboat, at Marina Bay, VivoCity, Clark Quay or other places, which is yours? As for me, I enjoyed that little moment with 3 other BMT mates at Marina Bay.

Had dinner at NEX first before heading to Marina area to get a place. Talked for about 1.5 hours at a spot that fireworks can be seen clearly! Though is only 4 of us, its fun talking to them.

A simple countdown to 2011! Never countdown with Darlings this year unfortunately. Just feel like counting with different groups of people year by year. Haha!

Now, shall say about New Year resolution. Firstly, as usual, I hope for a smooth and happy 2011, free of severe mishaps. Next up, I wanna maintain my fitness and train hard to have a good body this year. Maybe less lazy relative to last year. Haha. Driving license is up next. Hope to achieve my driving license this year. More friends and self improvement are things that I am into this 2011!

Yeah, basically these are the few main ones. Will add on as time passes! Yeah, thats about it. Alright guys, enjoy yourself and all the best this 2011!

Last few days 2010!

2010-12-29T11:34:00.003+08:00

As the days passed and every one is busy with their stuffs, I come to realise that 2010 is coming to an end. 2010 has been a year full of unexpected experiences and of course both pleasant and bad experience for me. How about yours? Haha.

The year started off with an abrupt countdown in town with 512 friends who are stucked in town! After which, I had a drink with the other closer ones and back home only at 7am on 010110. Haha!

January 2010 was a month that I really enjoy myself. Work at my own pace as requested, sufficient income to spend, gym with Alan to maintain some fitness, ample time to meet my friends and of course, time for myself to do whatever I want. In short, its a freedom month that I wish to have as long as i could. Well, good times always pass faster than expected, vice versa.

After a nice CNY 2010, I enlisted into SAF and serve my BMT in Pulau Tekong. the 4 months of training seems like 6 months to me. The duration of activities and things to accomplish is always squeezed in a short period of time. In anothers words, too much things to do, too little time! I am very glad that I have pulled through it and POP with joy!

After which, a 2.5 months of MP training is a bliss. I would say its just nice for me, just that I frequently fight with the Z monster during lectures. Haha. I love the company and the way they train us, its just right. I would say really good life. So thankful to be posted to MP as my vocation!

Next up, a series of down experiences were experienced by me, which I do not wanna talk about. All I have got to say, 1AMB is seriously a posting that is unexpected but suits me well. The only thing that is bad is the NIGHT prowl that makes it tiring. Everything else is Ok, except some unfavourable superiors!

Yeah, basically the whole year passed just as simple as this few paragraghs with pockets of memorable experiences that will always be in my heart. New friends, new dreams and of course my dream GCE A LEVEL results are all experienced! I just simply wish for the best and a smooth future ahead!

Haha, counting down to 2011 with my BMT mates, hope it will be fun. =)

Oh, last but not the least, learnt how to make TIRAMISU from my sec sch mate KAT. I am seriously thankful for her time to teach me how to make this high-end dessert, and it turned out well! Its yummy!

Alright, shall end here. Be back next year!

Sai Gang warrior

2010-12-14T20:10:00.002+08:00

Whenever i feel like blogging, I will never fail to blog. However recently, the frequency of blogging has decreased. The urge and the desire to blog isn't as strong as compared to the past. Its a pity.

As far as I am concern, I will blog more. Alright, shall start proper. Hmm, what shall I say? Oh, on Sunday during duty, this baby monitor(sp) lizard crawled into the guard rest. 3 duty team mates took about 2 hours to catch that lizard. OMG! Its so disgusting. It vomitted an undigested frog out. Haha! It was quite active and aggressive! But it succumbed to Hong Ray, Neson and Yong Kiat's hand. Haha! They let it go the next morning! Hmm, I guess its an legendary experience for them. Seriously a big Hoo-Haa!

Last Thursday, went to send Samuel to Pulay Tekong! After 5 months since the last time I was there, I thought it had change a little. The feeling is just so different now, although most of the things are still the same. Perhaps the intensity is not that strong now. As usual, they serve Chicken Rice again for lunch. Haha! This is the 3rd time I have eaten that during my Bro's, mine and Samuel's enlistment. Haha! But its nice! Took off to send him off, not too bad la! 23rd Dec he will be back! Take care cousin!

Just felt that the current public transport fee is getting my nerves. Its too costly for NSF, especially those who stay out! Yesterday after dismount, I took a direct train to Wisma to service my phone and back home after that. It cost about 2.50 to 3 bucks. I thought there's rebate but it doesn't apply for train. Damn it.

Talking about servicing of my phone, I am utterly disappointed by the worker who served me. I understand that she is a newcomer but the way she serve the customer(me) is disappointing. Perhaps I am expecting a lot but she is not even providing the basic service to me. She seems oblivious about customer being unhappy and do whatever she is doing. Such unfriendly attitude is unacceptable man! If I have the time I will definitely write in to Sony Ericsson to gently remind them to train them properly before dealing with customers.

Eventually my phone is not faulty. The reason for not able to access to facebook using my phone is because facebook changes its layout and my W902i phone can't support, hence unable to log in. So in future, no more facebook using pone. Sad!!

Last but not the least, SAI GANG warrior today. Perspire a lot today doing technician stuff. Afternoon, did all those rope cutting, caring stuffs etc. Such a tiring day today. Luckily I was rewarded with canteen break. Book out after that at 5.30pm. Took off this friday! YEAH! But mounting on Sat =(

Yeah, thats about it! Nothing more to say Hahaha! Be back soon! =)

Slight dip

2010-12-09T18:04:00.002+08:00

Whenever life is smooth and pleasant at some point in time, some things will not let you off when the time strikes aka bad luck strikes. I was regrettably one of those who is affected this week, for at least a little.

I am so shag this week, both mentally and physically. It all started with the Night Operation last Sunday, when I cannot sleep and have to stay alert at each corners of the camp. However, I was stationed at a spot that is the best as I can sit and lean comfortably while staying alert. The bad thing is, I was told to report only at 7pm but it changed suddenly on that day, telling us to report at 3pm. I thought its some important thing to do but eventually we did some SAI-GANG(extra work) that drained most of my energy for the night. I couldn't spend my Sunday with my parents because of the earlier reporting timing. Sigh. Its tiring man.

Next, On tuesday, I felt so sucky while I was on my way to NDC for my Braces appointment. I was reprimanded by one of the superior for not letting him know where am I going. Firstly, its seriously my fault for not letting him know. Its due to ignorance I guess. Cos I thought and I assume that superior X will inform him about it in the morning roll call, well apparently it didn't. When I am back to camp, I was punished for that. I can only dismount at 10am. I was furious then but I did not say a single thing. I just wanna endure and keep enduring! That superior X is one that cannot be trusted and is one that cares about himself. I seriously duno he is so ignorant towards his men. I would say that I am 'SWAY'. Well, just have to suck it up to the max! In future, i will do everything on my own and inform him will do. I will do all the details all by myself. Went home the next day at 10am.

Hmm, i missed the bus, attacked by a huge bee and miss another bus again are those little little unpleasant things that happened ti me yesterday. Oh, my teeth is seriously killing me, its painful after the tightening, especially the molars! Hate it man!

Went to pray to hope for the best and not encountering BAD things again. I hope these SWAY things will go away asap! Met up with Yoke Hung, Kenny and Marcus. I guess they are fine. Watched Rapunzel with them. I would say its 4.5/5! Seriously its really nice for a cartoon show!

Yeah, woke up early today to send my cousin to Tekong. Tekong is still the same and this time round, I am not staying at that place but as a visitor! Its nice being a visitor! Haha! Seeing those things that they are going to go through reminds me of those days in Quebec. Haha! Overall, I miss it a little man! More of those friendship and the bonding I suppose!

Back home till now! Sigh. I am getting more indolent and lethargic each day. I am kinda stationary and not exercising much! Anyone please drag me to the gym or fun a run please, I am growing fats! haha!

Alright, mounting tmr and Sunday! Hope for a smooth duty and NO OBSTRUCTION by that 2-headed snake! Till then!

Self reflection

2010-12-04T10:27:00.002+08:00

Hello, just reach home not too long ago. Another long weekend for me. Love the feeling of not booking in on a weekend. Haha.

However, on Sunday evening, I will have to book in as on Sunday, there is something that I will have to do. Quite a major duty to compromise this Sunday. Monday will be a day for me to rest.

Hmm, week has been not a good week. Had CO Parade on Monday and its so tedious. I fought with the Zzz monster while on the lecture room and I won of course. It was a tough fight I would say, listening to things that are not quite related to the MPs. Well, I always gave the speaker respect for not sleeping. Overall, just dun feel like going too often.

Alright, met up with Rups on Wednesday for coffee session. We had a long chatting session. I asked her for her opinion o me, all bad and good points. Overall, I felt that I am such a BAD person so to speak. Bad as in lacking lots of qualities that a MAN should have. I will try to rectify it, if not I am dead!

Come yesterday, I did a 5-6 hour Sentry. Had an enjoyable chat with my Prowling partner Neson. To be frank, I am really contented to know this guy, who is cool, who is sociable and friendly. Talking to him is so relaxing. We talked about anything under the sun such as girls, fitness, fashion, characters, camp issues, past experiences and many more. Yesterday, I suddenly asked him the same question that I asked Rups, and the reply was even more negative! Hmm, all i wanna say is, i need a drastic change in myself in order to improve myself!

I didn't know i was that BAD in others point of view. But at least he gave me useful tips and its kinda easy to rectify and I will be fine. I just need some time for these changes. I really I can improve to a better STAN before ORD!

Haha. Thats about it! Going to teach Yaya Economics soon and Night gathering with my cousins =)!

Take care people!

Family Trip to Malacca

2010-11-25T11:53:00.003+08:00

Hello friends, how are you? Recently things are going smoothly for me. Those bad days were over I guess. Currently living a usual life like before. Am satisfied with it so far.

Well, my camp has been having lots of mini politics. I suppose its kinda stupid and I dun even bother to think about it. Haha.

Applied for Overseas leave for last Sat till this Tuesday! Went Malacca for a 3Days2Nights with my lovely family. 4 of us set off at 8.30am and reach there at about 3plus due to massive jam at Tuas!

Overall, I would say its not easy to tolerate the trip. In a sense each of us have our things to see and hence its difficult to stay together. My dad like to walk slowly and scrutinise things, while I like to skim through things and get shop for things that I like.

I thought it would be very enjoyable but it turned out OK only! I enjoyed it but not as much as expected. Took lots of pictures, its all in facebook.

To be frank, i think living there is really nice. However, one needs to have money so as to enjoy the cheap and worthy items sold there. Food is really cheap and hence, cost of living is not that high.

I felt really rich and lucky to be a Singaporean. The male Sales assistant looked at us with a jealous eyes and gave us the look that we are so lucky to spend readily and can have things that we want as and when we like. I can't do anything but to say thanks to him for whatever they provide us with their service!

Living there is good, carefree and relax. But not all of them is that rich to enjoy the luxury there. I call myself lucky!

SHOP SHOP SHOP! BUY BUY BUY! Thats what I would love to do travelling! Haha!

Let go of a very nice long sleeve that cost S$50!

Anyway, not a bad trip. Nice food and nice place to shop. Nice culture in Malacca too!

SHalll update again. Got to go to book BTT now! Bye!

Braces on

2010-11-11T19:57:00.002+08:00

It taste bad when a glue-like substance accidentally touches my tongue when the dentist is putting those glue onto each teeth. It kinda sour and bitter, yuck.

Felt the little metal pieces on each teeth when I was told to rinse my mouth. It feels weird but not as bad as expected. However, i felt a little discomfort when the metal wire is coiled round my teeth.

And that the braces in on! Felt excited to see myself with braces! Haha. Looks fine on me i guess. All I am concern is food intake. I need to change my eating habit. I can't eat those food that I like. I can't eat solid food anymore for at least a period of time. My lifestyle will have to change!

Being a person who hates to have changes in life, it would be a feat to adapt to life with Braces! However, I try to control this discomfort in me quite well until today, although the frantic in me is there. Haha!

I ate porridge and Yam Cake(soft) after putting on the Braces. In the evening. I seriously had a hard time finishing the dinner. Luckily, I there's mash potato for me! Its good!

Till today, I think I am still surviving well. Well, I think I lack the stamina to endure this discomfort. Its just annoying. Its not painful at all!

Anyway, the metal wire in the middle above my tongue is causing my tongue to swell! Seriously sucks man! Its because of this I am very frantic and went so angry with myself! Sigh.

Kinda down just now because of this. Well, what to do? I have chosen this path and I will have to complete it no matter what! Just have to tell myself the days will pass quickly and I will have a nice set of teeth!

I guess mine will not take too long. I can already see the difference in my front teeth. Its not so protruding anymore. Its moving back! Yeah, good start!

I am just lazy to upload my pic. Definitely will one fine day! I need time to get use to it, like how I need time to get over the fact that I am in the remote cum classified area doing duty! Haha! Hope I will endue it with encouragement from others!

Alright, shall stop here! Hope my friends taking the A levels(YOKE, KENNY AND MARCUS) are fine! Wishing them all the best! =)

My 20th

2010-11-07T11:43:00.006+08:00

As promised, I will be blogging about mt 20th Birthday this year. To be true, its kinda routine I guess. However, this routine is satisfying and I don't mind having it every year for my Birthday!

I remember very clearly in Secondary school, my friends would received Birthday bashes on their birthday, birthday surprises, celebration etc, and Stan will only follow and do most of the things the organiser told me to. Their Birthday will be happening and fun, while I remember mine as a descent celebration =) But I am thankful for that seriously!

Well, this is life I guess. I adopted a very easily satisfied attitude in everything. To me, Birthday is just another day but a special one. I would wanna spend that day with someone who is worthy, and I will be very happy.

Most of the year, my Birthday will be clashed with important exams such as O levels and A levels. Hence, my Birthday will be celebrated simply. But I am happy.

Last year, I felt so happy when Kat came with the cupcakes and a descent dinner with parents. in 2008, went KBOX after nice DIM SUM in the day, ending that day with a Birthday song and cake. Way beoynd, I remember my lovely darlings celebrated it with Steamboat, Kbox and nice meals. Seriously thankful for it!

This year, I am very very touched by my DARLINGS! Seriously, I am speechless when the surprise was seen! Most years, I would be sensitive enough to feel that a surprises are coming. This time round, I didn't feel it at all. All I have got to say is a BIG THANK YOU!

I received a CRUMPLER BAG and A LOVELY SWATCH WATCH! I didn't expect myself to receive such expensive and hard-to-accept present from DARLINGS! to be frank, I have topped up to get this huge bag, they gave me a smaller one. Went to change for practical usage! But the watch is lovely!!! =)

I am very touched seriously! Even my parents didn't give me such ex prezzie as they are thrifty! I was too touched that I couldn't express myself! THANK YOU SO MUCH RUPS, KENNY, YAYA & JAS! U will be remembered!

They celebrated 1 week before my actual day as 5th Nov is catered for my family I guess and they may not be free. Well anyway, met up with Sista Shar and Kenny on 5th Nov 2010 for my Birthday celebration. Sadly, couldn't go to Kbox as its kinda full and not worth it! Hence, we went to SWENSENS! Good deal and i like the feeling =)

THE 3 OF US(CAMPUS SUPERSTAR 1st ROUND)! Am so glad that we are still in contact! Thanks guys for everything!

Went for a movie with bro and cousin called THE SOCIAL NETWORK! Not bad kinda nice! Guys, should go catch it! Its about facebook!

Went to a TEOCHEW restaurant, a reputable one. Overall, i give 4/5! Its really nice!

Back for birthday song and cake! This is a routine which I wanna have it till as long as possible for every Birthday! Love you Parents!

Yeah thats about it! Thats my 20. Simple and meaningful I guess! Wish for a smooth and good life as usual and also a Happy family, friends etc!

Shall end here. Simply wish for everything good! Haha. Take care, gtg for lunch now. Be right back =)

Welcome to the 2 family

2010-11-05T23:12:00.002+08:00

Happy Birthday to me
Happy Birthday to me
Happy Birthday to me ~
Happy birthday to me!

I am 20 years old from today till 4th Nov 2011! Reach the 20s age group. Shall grow and improve myself more. Thanks everyone for the wish, i appreciate it a lot! Shall update soon as I am mounting tmr. Will share this lovely 20 Birthday!

Till then.

Its been a while

2010-10-26T20:15:00.004+08:00

Yo hello people. I am so sorry for no blogging for quite some time. Hmm perhaps its due to busy schedule or maybe I just couldn't be bothered. Haha. Alright shall start.

Hmm well, time spend in camp is good. I am kinda us to it already. In fact I felt extremely fortunate to be posted here, provided that 1 superior is not present to disturb us. Haha. Prefer to do duty at 3am, 5am with morning 7am sentry as i can sleep at 8pm and wake up at 3am for duty. Felt really fresh after 7 hours of sleep, hence its not so dreadful while doing duty.

Had my first cohesion last friday. Had bbq in my camp and it was nice. The feeling is good. More to come in future. Well, I have got to admit that there is a distinct gap between the new ones and the old ones. I tried my best to interact. I just hope time will bridge this gap!

Had a mini platoon 3 gathering 2 Saturday ago. It was really nice to see them again, talking about our new unit and stuff. Hmm, I am confident that we can be friends for a while man. I am really glad to have a nice bunch of platoon 3 mates.

Next up, went back to my secondary school. QSS remains the same with an additional indoor sports hall built. The people there are the same. Met up with some teachers and chatted a little. I am glad Mr Wong gave me some recognition for my A Level results. However, the focus is not on teacher actually(I know i sounded bad ) but to have my all time favourite Chicken noodle! The stall auntie still recognises me! Aww so touched!

I believe most queenswayan will miss this bowl of chicken bee hoon or noodle, especially 512 group of people. Haha. Yummy

Completed a Hong Kong drama called Beyond The Realm Of Conscience. This show is really awesome. The plot is about Power struggle in the Palace, between Queen and Her Grace and also between the helpers in the palace. The way the backstab, the way the bad mouth in a polite manner and the way the kill each other, its really awe-inspiring. Although I am late for a year as it was telecast last Oct, I think its good to catch it if you have the time. I spend like the whole leave day to watch like 7 episode and completed it the other day. Hmm, now still thinking of what show to watch. Haha

Met up with Marcus, Kenny and Yoke Hung. Seriously they remind me of last year when I slaughter all the way from As. Anyway, wish them all the best man! =)

Last but not the least, suddenly felt a strong sense of pushing factor. Hmm this sense is telling me that I must grow up. I must have the sense of maturity. I must be prepared for lots of potential mishaps that will happen soon when i go uni or even in the workforce. I need to open up myself more and not adopt the shy innate trait of mine. But I need guidance. Save me...

Met up with my usuals without Yaya and Kenny. Had a good heart to heart talk with them last week. Shared lots of things and once again, we are closer. I am thankful to have them as they have given me lots of encouragements and words to boost my confidence. Yeah, i feel so much better.

Ok, shall stop here. Went for my 1st Braces appointment. Stan is putting on Braces in no time Haha. Hope it wouldn't be very painful for me! Chaos guys take care!

Still down

2010-10-01T16:16:00.003+08:00

Hi people. It has been a while. Haven't been blogging for a week plus as I just couldn't be bothered. Come home every day with a tired heart and mind, hence am lazy to blog.

Currently listening to YES 933 罐头剧場之"青青校树"! Its a very nice story by various DJs plotted by the popular DJs of YES 933! Its this voice play that brightens up my day every day before reaching Seletar Camp. Its really very nice. Am listening in xinmsn.com as I have missed out a few episode! Try listening to it. Quite nice! =)

Recently have been getting use to the 'Kampong' area where I am doing my duties. Its a peaceful and quiet environment! To be true, its like a CHALET provided no one comes to nag at you! I begin to see more plus points posted here.

Anyway, I have gotten back my Camp Pass and 11-B. However, there is a price to pay. Last Thursday, am F***ed by my superior badly for not telling him that I have misplaced it. Sigh! Took a PM off to replace it. However, on my way, I was told to call MP command regarding the Camp Pass. I was told to pay $50 for the pass. However, 10mins later, I was told by the SIB personnel that someone returned my camp pass and 11-B to Ayer Rajah Camp Guard room. I was quite stunned by those abrupt words. However, i felt calm and appease by those words. Called superior and was told to go and get it back. The thing is the camp pass and 11-B are given to an MP I/C at the camp those I am going to, I mean my HQ. After getting it back, went to Mowbray Camp to return the Camp Pass! Saw Nic and some of my course mates! Feel so at home! Was so happy that I the 11-B is back to my wallet! Yeah!

My first duty was on last Friday. Wasn't as bad or as tired as I have expected! Had a long weekend! Hmm, since monday, we have always been on standby! Did lots of "SAI GANG" such a clearing drains etc. Had my 2nd duty yesterday and now I am having my dismount day!

Recently have been quite bad for me. Bad luck kept pestering me for about 3 weeks since the 11B incident. I had a bad diarrhoea, shocking posting, a suprior who is very uptight and is always nagging us, being stopped at the Camp gate due to no 11B and was not allowed to exit and i miss the bus that I was chasing, F by my MP in-charge and yesterday, I went to take dinner but I didn't know i had to take Muslim food and i went to take the Non-Muslim food. Had some problems with the scanning which caused some trouble. Sigh. I really want to break the BAD BAD experiences ASAP!! Oh please!!!

Life is full of Ups and Downs. Perhaps my down period is here. Just wanna learn from it as far as I can and I really hope it will end soon! Wish me luck.

Shall end here. Mounting tmr as I want my Sunday to go to Cousin Vincent's son 1 year birthday! Shall update soon alright! Wait for my good news!

When white turns orange

2010-09-21T19:53:00.002+08:00

Yo, its Tuesday today. Finally, I am able to post an entry on a WEEKDAY(other than Quebec off-in-lieu)! Feels great to post an entry on a weekday during NS life. I also dunno why.

Last Tuesday, exactly 1 week ago, is the official day when I am finally a full-fledged MP. It was really a very very touching moment when all the trainees are now equiped with the orange brasard.

However, it came at a high price to pay. We SAMULA upmteen times during the PARADE rehearsal on last Monday! In addition, i wasn't feeling well that day! That night before POP, i had diarrhoea! A really terrible one. 6 times till morning and i decided to go to the MO on POP day itself. Luckily the medicine is effective to ease the diarrhoea!

Felt so touched that I almost teared during the Parade when we sang the MP song and reciting the MP creed! That will probably be the last time saying that until before my ORD!(Pic on Facebook)

Felt contented to go back to MPTS on Wednesday with beret and prange brasard with the rest! Felt the POWER in me! But things weren't that good the next day.

On Last Thursday, went to Ayer Rajah Camp as instructed! I thought that will be my permanent posting. However, we were told that the camp was at Seletar Camp, some ulu places. We were all shocked and eager to see the camp. Hence, we took public transport to Seletar Camp! Walked for about 25mins from the entrance to the camp that I am suppose to guard. I was like WTF! After lunch, we were briefed and were given rest time at about 4 plus.

Everyone's faces were like stunned. We were all speechless and helpless! We felt like a trapped bird and have a very negative feeling about that classified area! I was really really down then. I felt like crying out loud, which David felt that same way too. SIgh!

Came home with a very very sad morale! But suck thumb is only the thing that I can say! I will have to make it as easy to pass time as possible!

Today is my 4th day in that camp and I am still undergoing training. All I have to say is it will be quite tiring. Felt really lousy today when something went wrong. Night Ops, turnouts and stuff like that is really an obstacle man! Sigh!

Have to suck thumb man. Guess i will get use to it like for quite some time. Maybe till I ORD? Hahah. Anyway, i will try to appease myself by buying nice food after dismount and or go out after standby! Haha.

And thats for now! Sure to have more man!

PS: Why am I in external posting? I Don't want it man!!!!

One entry

2010-09-12T09:34:00.002+08:00

Hello. Here to blog again. Am feeling ok right now, just a little discomfort around chest area. I think i have slight food poisoning. Ate Fried Oyster on Friday which my stomach may not be able to take it.

This week is the last full week in MPTS as a trainee. Chemical Defense lesson on Tuesday but i cannot go in as i had Childhood Asthma. But i did the exercise. Anyway, it was quite suffocating but good experience. Had our second NIGHTS OUT on Tuesday. Wednesday, the whole day is catered for drills. Was raining in the morning and hence we did it in the indoor range. Overall, i think that our drills is OK! Seriously!

IPPT on Thursday. Its a waste that i didn't get a Silver but well i maintain a PASS. Shall train for Silver the next one. Photo Taking and CO dialogue and that is the end of the week. Didn't manage to wear No. 3 for the photo taking as the No.3 uniform is not ready then.

I really dunno how to face my section mates if they know that i have lost the most important card! I just wanna POP in peace! Really! Help me!

Careless

2010-09-11T12:15:00.002+08:00

Feeling giddy right now due to lack of sleep i guess. The dominant reason is actually using up too much brain cells for the whole day yesterday. In the morning till late afternoon, I was having fun playing Mahjong. The rest of the day, i was cracking my head to reminisce what happened on Friday after boarding the taxi.

I remember quite clearly that i took that camp pass together with my 11-B and place it inside my pocket. I am wearing a pretty tight jeans and its quite impossible that it will drop out. I have a slight impression that i have it with me when i alight the lift at my block. From then, i remember taking out all my stuffs in my pockets. Mp3, my army handphone and my ear-pieces are all in my room. The camp pass and 11-B in the cardholder is no where to be found. I had a bad feeling about that when I couldn't find it.

Normally, i can recall quite quickly the places that i have been and got that missing thing in no time. I did that to find my camp pass and 11-B but to no avail. My mum searched the washing machine and its not there. I looked ups and downs and there isn't any sign of camp pass. I was really panicking and had a very bad feeling all the way until I reach Vivo city to meet my friends.

Rattle off this situation to those that i met yesterday and they all said that its at home. My feeling tells me its really at home. But why i just can't find that f important cards of mine?

I kept blaming myself for not able to find the cards after coming home from Vivo. I felt really bad and given up finding at about 12am. My mum did a big role by searching for the card at this 4-room flat but to no avail also.

Called my section commander 3SG Ng Chee Tiong to inform him about my current situation. He was really nice to me and calm me down whenever i sounded anxious. He assured me that its not a very big issue and is constantly consoling me. He did whatever he can and told me to rest early. He is seriously very nice to me and I would say, I am very very lucky to have him as my Sec com! Thank you so much SGT!

Woke up feeling giddy today until now. Most likely is due to the over usage of brain cells yesterday. Kept thinking and being paranoid about it yesterday night. However, I feel real good this morning but just need a little more time to face the fact! Going to make a police report later.

Sigh, I guess this is fated. My life is planned such a way that i will have to undergo this stress in my life! POP this Tuesday and i encounter this situation is quite a headache for me, can't POP in peace. Haha.

Alright shall stop here.

Last 2nd week

2010-09-09T19:26:00.002+08:00

Hello, this post is for last week. Haven got the time for since the last book out to write an entry. Shall write a short entry!

Last week was quite a slack week. Really. CCT was cancelled on monday on we basically did nothing the whole afternoon. Booked out on Tuesday for Dental appointment. Feels damn good to be out. Conclusion is i am doing Braces soon!

Ate nice food in the Chinatown hawker! Love those cantonese food! Went back and had course cohesion. Its quite fun overall! The rest of the days last week is practise for pistol range, IMT and the actual range itself! 25m range is fun. Pistol shooting is not that easy! The recoil is kinda huge! But at least i got 22/30. Not that bad!

Thats about all. Went out with Darlings and had a cosy bunk in with them. Went for Karaoke session. Love the cantonese songs that i am learning. I really think i can sing cantonese songs quite well! But i will have to take some time to learn before singing it. Shall learn more!

Love our morning breakfast too at Meiling Street hawker centre. The fried carrot cake is awesome! We had lots of food on the table for consumption! Love that cosy feeling!

Ya, thats all for the week. Shall update on Sunday again! Will enjoy this long weekend! =)

Moonlight Marshall

2010-08-29T11:18:00.002+08:00

Hello guys, am back to blog. Am writing a short entry as my brother wants to use the com soon. And anyway, there is nothing much to write about except for 1 major event this week, which is Moonlight Marshall!

The week started off with uploading of store items to the tonner. Its quite shag loading the amount of stores to those tonners. There are many many items to be brought to TP4. We took almost the whole day to load those stores for our Pre-Moonlight Marshall(called Thunderbolt).

Woke up at 5am on Tuesday and spend the whole day there to do missions. It was really very very shag for the first mission. The scorching sun is making my body dehydrate even though i have drank lots of water. Luckily the rest of the 2 missions were OK, as in the weather. The last mission was very shag though as we carried lots of sand bags! Slept at about 2am that day after a shag day and woke up at 6am the next day.

As usual, unload the stores and load it to another site. But it was ok. Wednesday was a rest day for us to get ready for the 2 day 1 night fieldcamp!

Woke up at 3am on Thursday and did those missions in serious way and more in depth manner! We did not sleep for the 2 days and on Friday, we were damn shag! Cos all the energy was used up already!

But thanks to the commanders that we managed to finish clearing those stores by 3pm, hence booking out at 5pm that day! Shiok!

Yeah, am gald that i have survived and finished the most important event in this course! Now, its a few more events before my POP as an MP! Can't wait!

Yeah, thats about all. Gonna enjoy the last 2 weeks in MPTS. Really glad to be in MP and not other unit! Take care and be back for more!

I love this week in MPTS

2010-08-22T10:57:00.003+08:00

Hello. Another beautiful Sunday today. Slept for 8 hours. Had a long chat with one of my Sec school friend. Had lots of laughters during the chat. Anyway, lets talk about my life in MPTS this week!

Generally, i would say this is the best week and the fastest week. Went to signal institute on Monday! Hence, the whole day passed quite quickly. Saw Teck Soon.

Tuesday is just lectures and intro to DOG WING. Route March was cancelled! All i can say is, its quite slack that day. Wednesday is just practical for Moonlight Marshall. Thursday and Friday is the commanders RETREAT days. Hence, nothing much is done in the 2 days. We were given the privilege to go for NIGHTS OUT. To me, the first NIGHTS OUT was a success. However, gossips here and there are surfaced, which is really quite funny! I love NIGHTS OUT!

Friday, we went to DB for a short tour! I really dun wanna post there to do security! That place poses a negative atmosphere! Booked out at about 5pm that day. So shiok man! This week is seriously a welfare week! However, we have a price to pay. I have done the most push-ups as a form of punishment relative to other weeks! I felt a little angry as there are some miscommunication on the timing to fall in and hence we are being punished for that. Felt a little unfairly treated. Even before booking out, we were on our 4's! SIGH!!!

Well, i don't care. Just wanna book out. Enjoyed my Saturday with MPs-to-be at RED STAR RESTAURANT! Really delicious! Went to meet cousin for shopping till night! And now, I am going for MAHJONG! Wish me luck k! =)

Thats all for now. Will be quite shag this week due to Moonlight Marshall! Cannot sleep for 2days 1 night! Awww! But i will try my best! Tata! Be back in one week time!!!

4 day work week

2010-08-15T10:46:00.002+08:00

Hi. Its Sunday once again and I just woke up not too long ago. Feeling lousy as its book in day. Sigh! This weekend is really short. Well, i think i should be satisfied with this week as it passed really quickly!

Its only 4 days in camp for this week due to National Day on Monday! I seriously enjoed my National Day doing something that I am comfortable with, which is strolling aimlesly in a shopping mall and sitting down at a cafe to write some thoughts. It has been a while since i have done this. Back home in the afternoon to watch the NDP! Love the theme song and the parade! Nice!

Yeah, the next day is my ATP. It was quite sad for my day shoot as i only got 10/16. However, through sheer determination, i have got 29/36 overall. I re-shoot one station before getting Marksman! Thanks to new directive and i have earned myself $200! Haha.

Slept like 3 hours only and we didn't do much on Wednesday! Its one lecture and one close-combat training that day and thats it! CCT made my heart in pain! Argh!!

The rest of the 2 days were simply just lectures to prepare us for Moonlight Marshall! Yeah thats!

Ok got to go now!

Fast week

2010-08-08T23:24:00.004+08:00

Hello. Sitting in front of the screen at a Sunday night feels exceptionally good. Supposed to be in my bunk sleeping but well all thanks to National Day that falls on Monday that grants me the chance. Haha. Hereby wishing Singapore a HAPPY 45th BIRTHDAY!

This week past extremely fast due to outfield exercises on Tuesday and Wednesday. Have to complete missions or tasks given to us asap so that we can go back to camp as soon as we have completed it. I would say it was quite manageable especially to those who took Geog like me.

Its more or less like finding your way out using a map with some equipments to assist in your way. Its really not that though. I am glad me and my buddy were able to navigate within those knolls and forested area using map only. Haha.

Technical handling revision on Thursday was ok. All the things that BMTC taught us were in use. Not an issue for that. Only highlight the important things to take note.

And here comes friday with ICCT and IMT. Thats all for the week. Its quite fast! Went KBOX with Nic and Heng How. Went for K LUNCH. First time. It was cheap and the food is nice. That is our first MP outing, thats why others were not called. Well, we will meet up on 14th August anyway.

Went to have PARISS high tea buffet, which cost only $21. F cheap and I have got to eat lots of nice dishes.

Yeah, wasted the whole of Sunday man. Went to cousin house. Just to watch tv till evening. Went to Toa Payoh to walk around. Luckily i have gotten something from NTUC.

Thats for now. Going to eat more tmr at Bugis after prayers. Be back soon! Real Soon!

Lalalalallalalala......
