why like that?

Sigh i m just so 心胸狭窄, i dunno why everytime i will have this thinking that people are out to harm me or say my affairs. maybe i really m too defensive for the bad way. no doubt being defensive is good for a person but sometimes being too defensive will land yourself in world of no one but yourself. That sure aint good=(. i guess people who know me long enough will think likewise of me, yea but friends, i m trying to change already. maybe u all can give me a hand to help rip my chest apart..ewwwww ha=)

it's my life=)

okay.since i've been accused for not updating regularly, i'll now try my best to, or so for at least before monday comes when the mundane lifestyle begins all over again. okay let just recap some happenings in my life these few days.

101108(monday)
had my last ever book in to a saf camp. thought it'd kinda eggciting and memorable, like i'll appreciate the scenery on the train one last time, but it turned out that i slept on more than half the journey away. mp3 spoilt, that's y-_-'". when i finally reach camp,it's such a mad rush here and there to beg for signatures on my clearance form so that i can ord without 64105999 appearing on my caller id. and what's up with people playing hard to get? 'i cant sign cause the clerk haven sign' then the latter replied 'i cant sign cause my superior haven sign'. so who should sign first? haha i mean come on le be happy that ur commrades are going to ord, give a hand man. i know it's not ur turn yet but when we're gone, it also means that ur date is coming soon right?

went to the camp medical centre to do my ord FFI.waited uber long.haha but it's worth the wait la.kept my cool even it's like taking a yearlong cause creating trouble then wasn't really a wise choice. made fun of the medic who's testing our eyesight with those lighted white box with alphabets of different sizes. asked him to point to the email address of the company which made the card and that thing is like not even a quarter of the size of the smallest letter.haha

then it's finally 启谦's turn to ord, all measures were put in place to retain him. 'lemme take a naked picture or u can stay here for one more night'. being the consevative kind, he refused.sianz. okay we did not kidnap him, he's released when we thought the peak bus period's over. we meant him good k, he's carrying such a hugeee duffel bag.

the best photo we could get was this.
and this.. cheers to 1.5 years of friendship!
not forgetting KEVIN LIM too=)the man in the last picture came back at night and we(inlc edmund) chatted thru the night till abt 3am. feel rather blessed that i have such good friends whom i can relate to anytime=)


111108(tuesday)(pink for pink ic!)
finally, this long awaited legendary day came! i made history, i ord-ed, i reheld my pink ic, i Served And F off..haha since i m decently happy i dun wish to elaborate on the unhappy things prior to this divine moment=) cabbed home and had a crazy time cleaning and packing my army stuffs. mom helped me too.thanx=) got posted to 321sce, kinda happy cause at least i m with my old platoon again=) (ord=triple smiley)

121108(wednesday)
first day of civilian life saw me taking my BTT. okay, i passed cause i mugged! i was kinda scared that i will fail cause so many people knew i m taking man. gotta tell the truth if i really fail. haha =P but that doesnt mean i lie okay.i m an honest boy! okay m quite shocked that almost half the people sitting in front of me failed. maybe i m lucky my questions are easy.

there was one question that ask: u are a driver of a car occupying left lane. a long vehicle occupying right lane is turning left at a junction in front of u?
(a)speed up and chiong pass the lorry
(b)maintain speed and position
(c)slow down n stop to let the lorry go first

dunno what's gone wrong with me, i actually chose (a) mad! maybe i'm really pure rebellious man. a 3year old kid also know the ans is (c). it's BTT for heaven's sake. safety is the paramount. now i dun practice what i preach.haha! dangerous driver! ><'"

this rebellious nature has really gotten the better of me when it caused me to go dye my hair red. haha excuses la. just wanna to try out ma and show people i m no longer restricted my camp rules, i m a free man alr.hahaha. but to my dismay, the colours dun really show well, could have been a good thing so i wun look so bengish and get beaten up outside because people mistake me for their enemy-_-'"

met up with s13 guys to celebrate howan's birthday cum ord. No we did not treat them. we're now payless remember?ha. butbut the birthday boy got caught in the rain in camp and decided to ps.haha so it became a pure ord get together, tho 3 out of 5 who went had yet to be freed.-_-'"
clarke quay is like so flooded with the newly converted NSmen. well not to mention the even larger number that will infest dblo later. cheapo ns boys like us! haha. dblo free entrance for us ma!
thanx to chin,(not felicia tho) who had spent big bucks on his girl, we are fated to celebrate our ord with err Kopitiam. Samlaohorfun, okay la beeeg fat fish slices=D quite satisfied! no complains, like real.haha!
but the night did not end this way. we rushed to cafe iguana and rushed to order our magarita so that we get our order before happy hours end. haha another round of cheaponess. 40% k!haha saved us roughly 10 bucks each. although we refuse to admit it, we are kinda gay to be drinking such a gay/noob drink. esp so when the group is made up of 5 guys.haha. got abit high but nguyen still refused to divulge anything related to (ryu')li. notice ryu'=ken yea!>< anw we got high at the wrong time and started pinching butts, but dun worry no one got forced to swim in the singapore river haha=)
went to central to take photos.no we do not camwhore! haha. got dared to ask this group of girls to help us take photos! hmmm dare me? of course i dare la. graciously went over to ask n they graciously helped, no rewards for me or the girl tho, except that she accidentally pressed the gallery button and saw my CQ half naked!hahaha! but thanx anyhow nice lady!

i know i had a lobster face.
cheekopeh (starring BSA)
Xs and Os (BSA yet again)

okay thanx for reading!haha looking forword to the work on monday but i doubt my interest will last long>< bye=)

hihi

Okay i m pleasantly surprised that there are people actually asking me what'd happened to my seemingly non existent blog. haha i think i really dun have the discipline to keep blogging regularly and this is really made worse with my horrendous english. some junior of mine really like to poke fun with my grammar and spelling, so better not let the junior know of this page man.=( (yesyes 'childrens' i m sorrie k to my pri school teacher)

I shall update on my life. Yes i m reholding my pink ic now, feeling okay, not too ecstatic, having somehow a mixed feeling. i really mean it when i say a part of me really couldnt bear to let go of army life. It's really the people inside that makes me so yiyibushe. my men from platoon 2, my batch people, all my platoon sergeants, even my csm. k i know this sounds corny and cliche, but i really feel that these people have really left a deep footprint in my life. be it a positive or crappy relationship, these people have definitely taught me useful life lessons.

contrary to popular belief, i really feel that national service is not so bad after all. yes u do get extras, scoldings, punishments occasionally, but what are all these as compared to paying fines, or getting charged in the outside world. so long u obey instructions andfollow the law, and dun get into superiors' black list, u should be fine. ask for offs also easier. people ask u do this do that, just obediently nod ur head, whether u will do it or not is a business later altogether. but some people just really choose to be disobedient or that they are born to be rebellious or they simply dun care. lemme quote u an example, just an example. u are a 3sg, u got married so u stay out(while the rest stay in) shouldnt u be already feeling sort of guilty? u still have the cheek to come back and sleep in bunk whole day?and blame the whole world but urself for things not going in the correct direction. u draw 710 monthly for what? to buy melamine infested milk powder is it? some people are just like that, really ugly.

just chanced by an interesting youtube video saying y home grown singaporeans are given the 'honour' of serving their nation while our foriegn expatriate friends on the other hand are showered with scholarships and job opportunities. i m not saying that it's unfair, neither m i fit to say so because maybe they really fought hard for their places here, maybe singaporeans just refuse to take up jobs they deem low class, maybe singaporeans are plain lazy? But sometimes, it gets irritating, especially the 'scholars'. haven't we got outstanding students at home for the government to groom. why bother to outsource?imo some are really not that fabulous, just mediocre students. they come here, get free education, free lodging, free food, sometimes despise our local culture, call us unfillial brats for not welcoming them for they belong to the same race as our ancestals, and at the end of the day leave singapore to contribute elsewhere? so what does the government stand to gain? resentment from the locals who cant into better courses in uni, who has to serve the country, who cant go to uni open house and choose the course he wants because he's confined in camp for 15days straight to catch mas selemat kastari. resentment leads to hatred which leads to migration. yay! no more problem with overpopulation. well but it may not be totally fair to say all these. some are really smart, nice, capable and MAY choose to work in singapore. but the bottomline is give our locals the opportunities before presenting them to others la.

but then again this kinda thing is just like that. as occupants to a country, we'll definitely be angry when some other people from some other place try to step into our land and share the bounty we have. it's human nature. sometimes we really have ourselves to blame too. we reject jobs that are not up to our standards, we are picky in our uni courses, we are not as hardworking as our foreign friends(in soliciting maybe). so we should really brace ourselves up, be more confident and hardworking and snatch back what we deserve=)

okay another random fact, i took bus 262 to amk central from my area which is just 2 stops away and it cost $0.71?!!?!?. kaoz totally absurd man. the bus fare hike is really atrocious, not to mention the (E)ternally (R)aising (P)rice/(E)very (R)oad (P)ay. thank you ministers for that kind gesture of opening more gantries to ease traffic flow. ease the clog up in one place to clog up another. well done! sometimes i really dun understand how come we pay so much in our fare yet the SBS system is never or seldom improved. bus frequency is big problem esp for service 182. the bus usually takes a long time to come. and when it finally arrives u'd have to squeeze into a warm non-airconditonal bus with a bus full of banglas.err nope not racist, but sometimes u can get ur ass molested on the bus tho=), neither m i a gay-_-. i mean with all these foreign heroes and all the army dudes (from jurong camp, safti n pasir lebar) using the service, it wouldnt kill to add a few more buses to increase the frequency would it? afterall so much money has already been generated by that service alone.sigh dunno where did all the money go to. SMRT is also going to take out more seats from the MRT cabin too. poor ahpeks and ahmms. bo wee zei liao=(. no consideration for ageing population? have more trains la, use money not save money to reduce seats to metal bars.

okay feel much better after ranting.haha.bye
