Its been some time since I just blogged. Nothing much has happened. Well, last Sat I went to the Peranakan Museum with Khai. Wanted to do something different besides shopping or beaching . Moreover, its freaking cheap , 2 bucks. Well it was back to my roots and it was so exciting to see all the paraphernalia and memobelia of the donors . Anyway , I got offered a place in NTU Mechanical Engineering and got invited for a Hi -tea session @ Meritus Mandarin...Thinking if I should go , feeling so lazy..This is not my ideal course,I am still waiting for my letter from NUS..pls give me Science!!

When Will This Long Wait End?

2008-04-26T22:04:00.003+08:00

The anticipation for Uni offer is way worse than that of the actual results. Why is it taking so long? Some of my friends have already gotten theirs ie. NTU biz, accounts, fass. BTW went for my interview for NTU MAE. I sure did not expect so many interviewees.40++ . So mine was 3pm which I was late as I went to the wrong building . So overall, I felt that it went quite bad . There were 2 interviewers . The female Prof really grilled me. Not pinning too much hope onthat since I am not really interested in that course. Anyway, met my neighbour (pri skl mate ) there .What a coincidence. What I am really hoping for is NUS Science so I can read Quant Finance. Please pls fulfill my wish. Keeping fingers crossed. Please Let me see any UNI offer uin my mailbox.!!!

Back to Army life. Counting down my days till I ORD .19 mths more ah...

Cohesion Day

2008-04-07T14:24:00.005+08:00

Such a boring title but I just can't think of a title which is more apt. Anyway started the day with the ususal jog followed by a frisbe game with the rest of the regulars. It was an enjoyable game where some showcased their " competitive edge". After that ,we headed to Nihon-mura for lunch. It was a treat by the regulars to show their appreciation for the hard work we had for the past year. When it comes to food, SOTC is undoubtedly the champions. We sure can eat. LOL. Overall food was fine . With a full stomach, we made our way to Bottleneck Park for our paintball session. This was so called the highlight of the day and everyone showed no mercy at the battleground . It was all in good fun rite. Anyway CO and Mm joined in too.Nobody dared to fire at them coz it will be tatamount to 7 extra duties . I'm surre they were joking right. Good effort though. Now let the picture do the talking ( courtesy of Evan lol)

Raven 2 Dinner at Sakura

2008-03-22T17:00:00.003+08:00

Wow, it has been such a long time since I met up with Raven 2 . It was so nostalgic and really enjoyed it . Serg Leong ,Serg Faiza, Sir Luqman came too. Food was great and the company made it so special. It was so odd to address our commanders by their name so we sticked to Serg and Sirs . lol. Chit Chat alot. Quite a number of my Platoon got posted to Sispec. Auggy, Kian Long and Shafiq got OCS. Congrats to all . To those who are unsatisfied with their posting, we'll just have to move on.Serg Leong talked about some of the stuff we did during BMT all the punishments and some of the more " outstanding " platoon mates. It was hilarious. Although I did not complete my BMT , I do agree that BMT is truely the most FUN time of our lives. Cya mates do keep in contact!!

Ultra Mini Gathering

2008-03-22T16:39:00.003+08:00

tue went up with some of the duds from S13 for a mini gathering . Sad to say attendence was bad. Nevertheless, we made good use of the company.Settled for Ajisen at Plaza Sing.I swear I will never step my foot into that restaurant ever again. Firstly , service was atrocious.It was so hard to call for a waiter. Secondly , the food SUX. It was so salty that I feel thirsty the entire night.My friend said its because I ordered miso based but I tasted miso based soup and its not so salty. The cashier too was rude. Overall, 1/5.

Next went to watch Step UP II at Cathay. The female lead was spanking hot. At first I felt she was kind of tom -boyish.But hey gals do look good in sweats too. Dance was nice comparable to that of the first if not better. It was pretty funny but the overall plot was overused was not impressed apart from the dance grooves.

Overall , it deserved 3/5 pop corns.

2008-02-28T18:26:00.002+08:00

I am feeling so grumpy now. I am still stuck in office for the second consecutive time coz of my "ns" commitments. Had to stay overnight again. Freaking hell. So I have to wait till 11pm for the men to send arms but knowing this people it will sure delay to god knoes what time.We tried asking for half day leave but my superior refuse.Tough luck lol.

Mini Gathering cum Birthday surprise for our dear friend

2008-02-21T08:34:00.003+08:00

Sat was one of our many gatherings to celebrate our 6 years of friendship and also Yi Tian B'day. So we decided to give Yi Tian a surprise at Vivocity. We created an album of the photos we took throughout the years and also pasted our well wishes for her inside. Time really flies. It has been 6 years since we graduated. After we gave her her surprise and cut the cake , we made our way to Brotzeit which serves German cuisine. K overrall the food was okay. Chatting over dinner brought back the fun memories we had . It was nostalgic. It was a pity some could not come .Nevertheless, we should meet up more often to catch up with one another .

Being posted out

2008-02-16T09:04:00.003+08:00

Hey peeps, its been a long time since I last blogged. Well, I just got posted to Pasir Ris Camp as a Armskote from mon. Heard its a commando camp ..The problem is how to get there . The map attached is of little help apart from the bus services attached. Perhaps I need to research later or ask around . Ask about if its a stay in camp, they said it depends . Hope it isn't. On the bright side, I can now book out in civilian clothes already and not my No. 4.....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY YI TIAN

Me and my Shin

2008-01-14T10:57:00.000+08:00

Well 13 Jan officially marked my one month stance at Tekong but it was in fact one of the worst days of my life. K my book in timing was 0630 so i woke up and prepared myself for my book in . Time 0525 i finished bathing and for god knows what reason I fell at the entrance leading the dining room to the kitchen. So I fell and hit the side tiles and the impact was so great that the tiles came out and cut my shin. The cut was 4cm deep and my bone was exposed. I was on the verge of fainting as I was hungry and bleeding profusely. Who would have thought that the fall would create such a catastrophe. My family members were distraught they panicked and at 0645 i reached CGH did admin work,X- ray and then the operation. All in all I had 3 stitches while the rest of the laceration was closed with sterisstrips . Oh ya before that they injected anaetesia to my cut .I swear i was freaking in pain I was biting my clothes for crying out loud. The bloody nurse can still have the nerve to ask if it was pain . Isn't it rhetorical .Perhaps it was just a routine question. So I had MC from sun to tue . My wound still bleeds whenever i move a bit and its so hard to walk coz the tension can be so great. I really dunno how I am going to walk all the way to company line . Forget abount the training I missed. There is just too many and I dunno how many remedia trainings I will have . I can't march ,walking is already a chore let alone bathing .Someone help me...ahhhhhhhhh .My wound is bleeding as I am blogging .Pls pray for my quick recovery.

ADIEUS PPL

2007-12-11T20:49:00.000+08:00

Well well where do I start ? Going to enlist on the day after tom. No problemo , not nervous .Who am I kidding. Of course I am having butterflies in my stomach . This is "FITNESS and so much more", not in Mr Lewis Dictionary. Dunno when I will be able to book out. I am piecing all my thoughts together. Its all so messy. May I say something ultra random. I MISS WRITING GP ESSAYS. Ms Leow should be happy when she reads this. Those were the days. People reading must think I am insane.

K went to visit grams then proceeded to Katong wif my mum ( mummy's boy always know his way wif the ladies). YA rite lol.. Sauntered down the streets of Katong savouring my fav food. Laksa. Visited Chim Mee Chin Confectionary for my Egg Tarts and Kaya. Was too full already. I still wanted my salted chicken, tau Kua pau . Shld have gone to Guan Hoo Soon Peranakan Cuisine @ Joo Chiat. But so out of the way . Ps : although the chef is not actually BaBa, I Prefer this to that Peranakan restaurant along Katong beside the confectionary I stated earlier. . God I am proud to be Half Peranakan. Must learn all the recipes when I have the time and pass it down to future generations .Who say men can't cook. Anyway most of the famous Chefs are men. K I am not chauvisnitic. Ya there are great female chefs like my dear Nigella Lawson and others. The way to a women is thru her stomach. ya rite...I m really entertaining myself .
I will definitely miss all this food. I realized I have been gorging myself with food rececently(ate at Cafe Brio @Corpthron Waterfront forgot the spellings the hotel beside ZOUK. then Oscars @ Conrad Centennial. Basic instincts right.

Anyway went to meet up with Khai to exchange X'mas presents @ PP. after all this.

Back to my main idea of writing today. Ya I will most importantly miss all my peeps. Do sms me though I will reply very late . Sms at night for faster response. Tag on my blog too. I will also miss my fav TV shows. ie CSI, Brothers & Sisters, Nanny (I have seen this umpteen times but I still love it. ) , My Wife and Kids , Yes Dear,FRIENDS OF COURSE, MTV, Passport to Europe with Sammantha Brown . Wasted Frasier has ended. Yes I am a couch potatoe . I miss my I-pod. How can I live without music? Luckily my phone has radio. It better be working . I miss dancing . Wanna learn Salsa, Samba, n hip hop in future before I grow old. Love STEP UP, love the choragraphy. Being random again.

Anyway thks for all the well wishes ppl. and thks for sending me off Zhi Hao and Stephen in advance . You all really don't need too.Its so early. I appreciate it alot anway. Hope that my bunk mates will be ok. Will update on my army life when I book out. Know those enlisting later will be curious.

*must learn to be more patriotic lol

Its time to boogie and make merry!!!

2007-12-04T20:38:00.000+08:00

Yesterday marks the finale of our JC lives., "Prom". The theme of the eventful night was Frost De Bagio De Luna which means Frost Under the Moonlight in french . Everyone was dressed to the nine and were all gorgeous. It was hard to actually see the theme at the ballroom but my dear councilors still deserve accorlades .Good Job .Food was alright ,emcee was ok and I have to say that the games was kind of fun . The song choice could also be improved , quite poor selection according to my standards. I serviously did not expect to receive that door gift , ran our of budget lol..Nevermind , what matters was our friendship and the food. Oh well, Sherry took the prestigious honour of the Prom Queen while Si Rui took the crown. I have to say Sherry definitely deserved it. So prom ended around 11pm afterwhich we took a cab to ZOUK for our skl's post prom. It was so damn fun and DJ andrew spun the tunes of r& b . Everyone was dancing and I too had lots of fun. It ended at 3am and was so sad it ended, feeling quite nostalgic now. Although I felt quite tired and was going to lose my voice, I still wanted to continue dancing . Still in the midst of getting photos ..cheers

Songs Review

2007-12-01T08:24:00.000+08:00

1. Back to Black by Amy Winehouse : love this song to bits..love the rhytm . It has a bit of Blues..

2. Rehab by Amy.......... : love the rhytm . Kind of funny now that she is really in rehab. There were rumours that she had a tissue packet stored in her bee hive hair...not bad ya hair can be use for style n storage.

3. Tatoo by Jordon Sparks : First song I heard from her after AI .Not bad.

4. Taking chances by Celine Dion : love this song from the start. Finally she is moving back to her roots and moving away from musicals.

* trying to get these songs

Reflection on my JC life

2007-11-29T08:57:00.000+08:00

2 years have really gone by so fast. I remember complaining that I was posted to TPJC and was trying all ways to get out of this dump. On hindsight, it was a bittersweet moment for me. In my spent here, I forged close friendship with some people. I met some true friends who really stood by me when I needed their support. Hope than we will never go seperate ways.BFF k..

Not forgetting "that incident" ,shall not elaborate further .Its so easy to say to forgive and forget. Its way more difficult than you think .

Education wise? No comments , we'll just have to see the A's results next march...2007 marked the change in the helm by Ms Helen Choo. Thank God,!!!.The previous principal was ...............shall not say anything .My fellow TPJCians would know what Iam talking about. Fortunately she left the education system for good and not cause disater for other schools. Overall Ms Choo job for the year has been quite satisfactory . She moltivated the cohort way more than the previous and implemented many programmes that helped us to learn better. Teachers wise ?Of course the teachers here are uncomparable to those in BDS.However there are still some teachers who I enjoyed lessons with and am really happy to have them as my tutors .They are Ms Leow, Mrs Sze,Ms De Souza,Mr Adam,Mdm Neo. Hope that TPJC will make history nxt march in a good way I mean.
