[ 281. The One With My First Book Out ]


Training to be soldiers
Fight for our land
Once in our life
Two years of our time

Have you ever wondered
Why must we serve
Because we love our land
And we want it to be free, to be free

Stand up
Be on your guard
Come on everybody
Do your part
Come on everybody
Give your soul and heart
Do it for our nation
Do it for our Singapore

Looking all around us
People everywhere
Children having fun
while we are holding guns

Have you ever wondered
Why must we serve
Because we love our land
And we want it to be free, to be free

[ 280. The One With My Last Civilian Day b4 Enlistment ]

today was a 'rush-hour' day for me... as usual had to go pray early in the morning. got nagged by my aunt who brought me there cos she couldnt contact me as i have lost my fone. i lost it after supper after vball game. talk abt the game, first time playing no4 position. fun!

after praying had to rush to lavender to buy army stuff... spent abt 35 bucks. got discount from the auntie cos i always buy red cross camp stuff there. :]

then rushed to have lunch with my friend at jack's place. wanted to treat me but we had a friendly money fight. lol. it was a memorable lunch and ate like 2 hours. if only every meal like dat, i would have been the happiest guy and a fat one! btw the brownie sucked. to my friend: i dun bare grudges ok! lol

then rushed to the karaoke centre at bishan, joined weishan, shu hui, yuhui, yingsheng to sing like mad. first time singing karaoke, feels gd... but bad to hog the mike. hope i didnt spoil their ear drums.

then tried to rush to pasir ris cos my grandmother wanted to pass me something and money. then i remembered i need to get my SIM card cos if not even with new phone, i cant make a call. so i dropped at tampines and to my horror, no m1 shop so i had to take a cab and rush down to sengkang. it was already 9.15pm. i was so scared the shop might close. then when i finally got the card, i took cab again to pasir ris. and after that i was too tired so i took cab back home again. :(

altogether abt 15 bucks on cab. but gd thing is lots of pple gave me money...

ok now the i-miss-you list...

My NatCamp cadets

vball frenz like andy, fukang, mike, warren, dennis, james and many others

[ 279. The One With South District Camp ]

woke up early juz to make it for 12pm briefing but then in the end dun haf. felt so giddy maybe didnt sleep well. but lucky got Kat's febs tablets.

then in the afternoon awaiting the cadets, law sir shared wif me and the others abt his army days and gave me valuable survival tips and stuff to bring. it was indeed time well spent.

then managed to do abseiling, first time trying to climb down 3 stories at the campsite... revised my bowline knot.

so long nvr had a gd chat wif yu ching . glad that we are still at da same frequency. poor him... feel as lost as me.

america's next top model was yoanna... final 2 shld be shandi and yoanna. mercedes eeks.

then tue morning, woke up late as expected no time to take bus so i took a cab down to east coast park. wah $16.40. haha someone has to wake up alone.

the sch i was with had no motivation to win. lack of communication. no one was leading. simple map of popular locations like dhoby ghaut, city hall, bugis also dunno how to read. walked even slower than when i was doing recce. anyhow hum-tum the answer cos they nvr go briefing for the Quest. told them to manage their money wisely, in the end, $2 for lunch, they used 80 cents for cup noodles and $1.20 for Big Gulp at 7-11. some even ate into their transport fee... *faints*

i had to eat the same wif them except i nvr bought the drink cos every1 supposed to carry a water bottle with them. juz drink plain water la.

More stuff to buy: hangers of same colour. masking tape. wet tissue. ziplock bags.

so happy got pple buy dinner for me.

and i am finally 60KG!!!

[ 278. The One With A Blast ]

today woke up had to tell my mum i going for south district camp, she was like 'wat? u no nid to rest before going to army?'

haiz. i dun like to laze ard. so this morning went for the contact session of the volunteer instructor programme...

haiz i guess i was a bit edgy abt the white pants yesterday... oops talking abt it, i forgot to return edwin's pants!

talking to the new batch of trainees abt my experiences is pretty fun i guess... they looked excited :]

and one of the trainees also called john... mmm... next time when the instructors scolded that john, haha wonder if they would laugh...

then went to SPANS for vball matches... pretty exciting. too bad they didnt give out the oscars best acting awards sia... its damn tough to try to lose a game. especially when pple love to laugh after they supposedly missed a shot.

marina steamboat super fun too... lots and lots of photo taking... then went into arcade and play too... super crappy mood. oh muz thank a group of you guys who bought the wind breaker for me... thanks a lot.. so touched... :]

i miss u today...

[ 276. The One With Fed-Up ]

weird pple part 2. shanZ and yingsheng! i think i was right about something...

i waited whole night for a sms cos i nid to get back my white pants from a cadet for tml's event! now dun haf... arghz. tml is white top white bottom. i haf no choice but to appear in jeans. serves me right for asking so late and assuming efficiency

oh ya back to weird pple, yest at orchard i saw a guy who's a drag... eww... he got at least 2m with the high-heel shoes... plain gay.

oh well. tml besides popping by volunteer instructor programme in an obviously wrong attire, i'm going for vball competition! haiz, know abt dinner @ marina wif my fellow frenz but hopefully the matches end early. wonder if i have the appetite.

does it take longer to type an sms or blog?
i chose the latter, but it seems i am stupid to choose that.
[ 275. The One With Mad World by Alex Parks ]

lol. the song is nice but more imptly, there are weird pple ard! there's this 13yo girl from jurong pri added me in msn... and she wanted me to gif her my number???

speechless
[ 274. The One With Home Alone ]

oh wells, finally home. feels kinda weird. past week been a blast. after 3 hrs of tan on fri, i finally have tann-lines. lol. somemore no sun burn. :]

Now busy trying to get tips from seniors what other stuff i shld be bringing other than the standard pack list... so far, cd player, black permanent marker, black insulation tape... mmm... what else?

juz received letters from navy and air force... pretty interested in navy but heard from those who signed on with the army in general... most haf negative comments and advised me not to sign on... i wonder the bond last for how long... getting $1900 per mth and study allowances sounds good...

went for recce for South Quest, am i getting old? cos the rest of the guys walked so fast... oh yeah cant wait for South District Camp, dunno who else i would see... busy week again :]

late . i hope its a gd thing... but i feel bad.

[ 273. The One With Feeling High ]

oh, yesterday was pretty high and hyped up because of campfire and other stuff :]

memorable

i think its been so long since i attended a campfire so felt kinda weird at first... feeling a bit sian seeing them setting up campfire... cos everytime set up campfire, so might feel a bit sian, nothing new...

yesterday before campfire, went to watch Without A Paddle with my some of my Nat Camp cadets. Supposed to be a comedy but dun think i even laugh... mmm... lucky its 6.50.

saw a lot of familiar faces at PS...

had a very gd nice sleep... finally a deep one...

morning woke up late... lol. had nice breakfast... saw my sec sch friend with another girl too... mmm...

on my way home... first a crazy man asking for $ to go home... early in the morning? i was thinking u got all the time now to walk to wherever u want in singapore lo... then there was a woman with big bottom (sorry) who sat beside me in the bus... gosh she took up more than half of the seat. i couldnt get up cos she kinda pressed on my hip bone and if i stood up i'm like a bit mean. so just kept quiet, hopefully she would alight early.

sun is good, gym sounds exciting and i have to hunt for my PS game... arghz... awaiting 6pm... a week has passed... a week later i'll be in tekong! muahaha...

[ 272. The One With Piazza & Singapore Idol ]

oh we went to this restaurant at orchard atrium... cos there got TV showing Singapore Idol... reached there super early and stood outside waited for like 45 mins... lol. then when we reached we had to ask the waiter whether they will be showing singapore idol and whether if we seat inside will we be able to hear.

ordered fish and chips and brownie with ice cream. and in the end they served the brownie first... a bit shocked la cos i thought that was supposed to be dessert. but apparently, i forgot to ask them to serve later... hee i thot it was understandable...

haiz i still prefer sly's version of the single... oh well, cant wait to see the sales of taufik's album... today's biggest winner is the telecom operating centre... 3 million votes... teenagers have to work doubly hard to earn back the money they spent on voting... btw dick lee's composition was damn hilarious! shannen and satu kosong busy distracting angie from watching sly... table was almost flipped too. fun times...

and american idol starting in jan!!! but too bad i'm in tekong le...
haha. cant wait for shannen to sell the membership at tekong. lolx. sure lots of guys want her number...

for the kick, i voted for sly only once and this shannen has to play a trick on the confirmation msg which apparently was delayed due to overwhelming incoming of messages...

thank you for voting for sly. he's going to lose! YEAH

Also, didnt expect warren to miss me... haha. after so long nvr go down for vball... i bet he gonna tag he wasnt missing me... :P

Haiz... so sad my friend had to wait for an hour for me... felt so bad... shall make it up :]

i got my new residential phone number le... more chatlines available!

today camp was kinda sian at first cos the cadets i think slack too much... but after some fine tuning... they are better... maybe too small an unit so the camp dont have much impact. but 3 NCOs planning for the camp only, i think its quite a gd camp :]
