you know that 1+1 will never give a 3, but still, hope of miscalculation lives in you

Last Saturday
lazing session with kokli and jianyu at lot 1. Too late to jio more ppl, but still hope to meet up for a while. We nearly succeeded in going to sing at the last min but cheap ktvs require reservation at least 1 week in advance -.- kbox: $26++, and after their calculation, they said it's about $40. O.O Okay. partyworld ktv: $90+ for 3 ppl O.O

We're not poor, but paying so much just to sing is stupid lol. A sad short night.

Last Sunday
KAYAK with weini vivien jasmine huimin swusan qingping jianyu! Woot it was fun! Partnering with huimin totally made kayaking a breeze haha. Managed to take a look at a 2m monitor lizard, a fish that jumped onto the angmohs' kayak, and nearly bumped into the looming overhanging branch in the mangrove swamp.

I was expecting us to go to the frog island or sth, but we just kayaked in and out of the swamp and tata? Too short! But ok la, could really tell that the camp goers were really tired from only a couple of hours of sleep. I can't wait for uni already.





















Ubin cycling next time! The ferry trips to and fro pulau ubin were reminiscent of the tekong days. Ah.. No way I'm going back again LOL

-----

For more than once, surveyors said I don't look like a 20. Technically I'm still a teen, but really meh, I don't have the army look? Is that supposed to be good or what! tsk.


-----




Finally! $200! Marksman! The whole company got it actually haha. Debit $16000 in SAF account!







Complaints again..
笨泥 is a fucked up platoon sergeant. Bias piece of shit. I was infuriated at his cowardice and actions this whole week, but I decided to take a step back because I might need his help in army. Now, in the civilian world, I can't really muster my indignation and criticise him. Hating someone is indeed very tiring. I'd rather ignore, just like what I did to kaiwen.


Life is math, sleep, gym, and a lil city hunter now. Gym gym gym. I hope there will be significant results because muscles training is really torturous -.- No pain no gain. garrrrrrrr. At least now I have some confidence in my physical strength, not like in the the past when I used to shun away from it! Perhaps the more essential takeaway from gym sessions is the boost in self-confidence.

-----

I happen to come across these videos..









the part where reality kicks in.. it's just sad. But 5:37 christine is so funny LOL!
How is she supposed to know she's special to you?






That's it. Rejection, awkwardness. The ending could have been:
guy:"Amy I really like you, more than a friend."
girl: "oh.." *awkward tone
*phone rings
girl: "Hello? yea.. ok ok. Bye."
girl: "look, I kind of have something right now. I'll talk to you later ok?"

or

girl: "you are a nice guy, but I think we should remain as friends, shouldn't we?"


Anyway that's not a real situation what haha.

Saturday
Went to sing with huimin jasmine kokli jianyu! It was really a busy day for me, and I screwed myself up. I ran to the kitchen to get sth, then went back to the living room to take sth, then headed back to the kitchen again. A lot of stupid trips. Plus I didn't really have the feel to sing that day! Maybe it's because of the rush... So all the emo and high songs felt weird -.- 献丑了献丑了! But it was still rather enjoyable haha. 4hours is definitely not enough!


Thereafter we strolled to holland v, huimin's and jasmine's territory, for dinner at everything with fries! Yum yum charsiew, really worth my money trying. Pretty waitresses. DIY manager.


Then it's time to get high and tipsy! 2x erdinger + 1x 1664. The swirly feeling was incredible at screwing my thoughts lol. But I could still command control on my actions, just that happiness could be attained easier with alcohol. Huimin's godlike reflexes at snap jack was overpowering. And there was nothing we could do except to challenge her drunken state! Still owned all of us -.-


After kokli and jasmine balek kampong, the m1 gang continued to linger. That sleepless night was a lil painful for me, especially with the thought of tuition the next day. But it was like opening another gate that was in a deeper level in our hearts. A precious night to be remembered. The 3 of us were of the steady type, with more lax family restrictions and easy-going personalities. Great.

-----

I was so elated when my tutee showed me his first test results! From a U/S grader, he got 59/100! That's a Bminus1! Or basically, a C! How delightful to know that your efforts has paid off! But I had trouble expressing my contentment because he could be aiming for an A, and he's a guy, and I have never joked with him, and some other factors..

Pay week :D


I could have boarded the bus if I sprinted, but I didn't. So I calmed down, held my composure and mounted onto the saddle, poised to take the next step should chance arrive. 30mins, or what seemed like an eternity, passed. Did I make the right move? Was it better to wait when I could have grasped the fleeting moment? What if that was the last chance I had, and all that I got myself prepared for was for nothing? Just a simple incident of missing the bus, yet intriguing.


-----

I couldn't help but feel that I'm like an ikan bilis. Against the plethora of blue fin tunas, salmons, red snappers, cod fish.. do I stand a chance?


like chesedale, I taste great with anything

NO MORE FIELD CAMPS IN SINGAPORE

until reservice -.-"

Is that sth to be happy for? hmm.. Let's see what my company has left..
16km route march at night [pending]
combat team shoot
combat shoot for marksmanship [almost done :)]
aquis-preparation for overseas training, aka lots-of-cleaning-period
acct-learning how to fight enemies in ideal situation, meaning they must be dumb, ignorant and small-sized
army half marathon
guard duties
exercise wallaby


seriously, my future looks bleak..

But hey, BYE BYE mosquitoes LOL! I must say soaking my uniform in insect repellent was quite useful! My body didn't really get any bites! MY HANDS GOT A LOT THOUGH COS THEY WERE EXPOSED LOL. Screw the mosquitoes la really. My 4D3N vacation was rather ok I guess.

First 2 days were spent sleeping in the forest and partying with tuna :p
3rd day we walked in the night, took a super detour in an attempt to surprise the enemy but got killed without even fighting in the end lol. Luckily I died, because if I were to be injured, I WOULD HAVE TO BE INJECTED. WTF RIGHT. UNACCEPTABLE MAN. MEDICS HAVING THE JURISDICTION TO USE NEEDLES AND POKE SOLDIERS. cruel...
3rd night dismount and fight in the dark again, which was pretty fun because it's the first time we're fighting soldiers who could "run" lol. Last time in our trainings, soldiers were to lie on the ground and keep firing until the enemies overrun them. It's stupid la, the army likes to assume that the enemies are retards -.-













Eat until I have tuna phobia now LOL! No joke, I can no longer stand the putrid smell of canned tuna anymore cos we spammed so many cans in the forest during field camp! Urgh..


But the worst thing that happened was after the field camp. I thought there was fresh ration for lunch so I gobbled up all the remaining food for breakfast, and STARVED so badly. I got a slight fever from evening onwards. This is called 饿坏了. I told myself I will never let myself starve until like that again. Ever.


But hey, brushing teeth during field camp was immensely satisfying! My breath felt so fresh, though everyone around me had zillions of bacteria in their mouth everyday for 4 days and they didn't care much -.- Thanks to field camp too, my hair lost its integrity. My head became like a coconut leaf stuck to a coconut shell. Horrible. Can't do shit to my hair until I have it cut.

-----

Thanks to the tuition assignments that I have, I can now be sure that I don't want to be a teacher. LOL! 1 of my tutee was late for 40mins. Yes, 40mins. Imagine my blood being boiled into gaseous state. If I were to be a teacher, I would have to face 20-40 students, and how many of them are problematic ones? No idea, but at least 1. Accountant 了 lor!

-----

Met kokli jianyu clarence cheeyee huimin jasmine jane vivien swusan at cwp freshness burger. My luck in trying new things has always been bad. Yet another example: CHAI. It's milk tea, but 0.5s after one sip, you'll have a poor sour squidward expression.




Yup, it has ended. There went 8 years of fantasy. I still prefer the young potter in the magical world to the serious potter in the dark noseless voldemort world. I guess I won't be reading any of harry potter books in the near future.. But I'll definitely introduce this series to kids from the younger generation.


In retrospect, I started dipping into the HP fantasy after I watched Harry Potter and the sorcerer's stone by chance in pri school. So I have emma watson rupert grint daniel radcliffe and robbie coltrane to thank for all the childhood magic!





This reminds me of "swusan lend me your toy" incident. LOLOL. swusan actually innocently searched her bag for her batman toy hahahahahahahaha. That made me laugh for at least 2 days.

-----

Just when I've decided to start project ppn, kokli and jingxuan are deliberating whether to take protein powder or not. Ok, it's actually a supplement, akin to drinking milk but still, I don't want any of it. If I can't get muscular even when I work out then so be it, I'm born to be lean!

-------

One of the best nights out ever. Went to teoheng@NTU alumni club to sing! And the first group of students we saw had to be PRCs -.- the impression of ntu-prc just gets worse and worse.. But no offense lol, I just feel a bit less singaporean with prcs around. Singing never gets boring! The best song was 王妃 hehe.


Combat shoot! 35/40, close to marksmanship! I hope I shoot well next Tuesday! Like I always believed, I don't have good affinity with normal rifles. My rifles always cock up. Many IAs, not aligned blah blah. What a burden. I spent so much time cleaning it some more! But as usual, skeptics exist to doubt my marksmanship fundamentals instead of my rifle. I proved them wrong! My scores soared when I borrowed weapon from someone else. SEE. NOT ME OK. MY GUN.


狂想曲 was nice until I read the lyrics.. 牛顿didn't 发明地引力; he 发现-ed! *sigh.



like voldemort, I have a fail nose bridge

beautiful girls all over the world and they got nothin on you

R5. The most worrisome thing on my mind right now. Last field camp in singapore! BUT FREAKING 4D3N!! I wouldn't mind if it was a holiday trip T.T




Finally the elastics stage for braces. Wa pain pain pain. And troublesome. Argh.











combat rations, tuna, choc bread, lychees, bottled drinks




woohoo! Another album that has a lot of nice songs, like stefanie sun's! YES!









Outing with archery team! Steamboat! Didn't really eat that much cos my teeth really hurt :( I enjoyed the bun and maggie mee though LOL! But also, I'm kinda reluctant to eat steamboat buffet because.... I need to save some $, and I'm on a project ppn! protein-powder-no! Or just trying to substitute words into my "ppn" of "ppnldd". -.-

bashing into the forest


As often as possible, I'm gonna train my muscles in the gym. I want to see how muscular I can look without protein supplement. But actually what I want is just a lean and fit body physique. Better try now or regret forever in the kopitiam during my 40s while drinking beer and crossing my legs right? That is also hard because most uncles watch soccer while drinking in the kopitiam and I am one of the few people who dislike soccer.

i wonder how i'm going to brush my teeth and change my elastic bands in field camp


Then outing with donghui wanting jianyu chaochao! Very random outing but not bad I guess :) Some catching up, but this clique is also quite comfortable to be in hehe.




good movie! I like rugby shows man... Like 'remember the titans' and 1 other, which I forgot. So inspiring.









Hope is lost.


like a full stop right after a comma,. how abrupt and awkward, but apparently real and wrong

But the stars we could reach were just starfish on the beach

I don't like soccer because I think it's rough. I prefer sports with lesser contact, like basketball or captain's ball or volleyball. Ok maybe not for basketball but basketball is safer! Like jingx said, I had bad experiences from playing soccer lol. I am super afraid of people ramming the soccer ball in front of me, for I could easily lose my Fathers' Day in the future. Brute strength *pfft

Unfortunately, soccer is still the most popular sport. Minus away soccer players, minus away those not interested in sports, minus away people who are injured and sick, no one is left to play 'safe' sports with me!


Monday guard duty was scary. Was prowling and slacking with kokli and then suddenly 1 guy walked towards us. My heart skipped 2 beats! Could have easily been dismembered by that guy. How lucky are we.. Another sleepless night Z.Z

On tuesday,





durian night! 50cents durians.. Ok not so bad, maybe 2bucks. At least got the durian taste :p

















But this is the important part. Female officer! My platoon! 1 month! How is life going to be like with a female as my commander? hmm..









During the "forced leave".. sir daniel treated us to a movie!!






LOLOL! Not a movie for everyone I guess, but to me, it's hilarious though some parts are disgusting.. sexual humour, wuss behaviour, retarded. hahaha.


Zooey Deschanel , as usual always in the dreamy state











Spent a lot this month. Gotta save up but GSS is toooo enticing and still not much sales :(
So I adopted a second method to offset my materialistic desire: 1 more tutee!








Once again, desperation brings you nowhere. Never be desperate.












Life has been very boring lately. There is only so much I can do without spending too much money.. I guess informal meetings with jianyu clar kaisheng kokli do spice up my life by a lil. So hard to jio ppl out nowadays, with their individual commitments..


Perfunctory greetings, interactions, relationships. Such an apt word. People come and go like seasons, but some will stay with you. Superficial yet necessary?


Thank you readers for reading my blog. My life is so boring, my thoughts are mediocre in comparison to professional bloggers and parochial from my point of view, yet you spend at least 1 sec of your lives reading it every time. But I appreciate your efforts in trying to know more about me, thanks! :D


like a 50 year old uncle, I cross my legs and lim kopi
