The week just keeps gettin' better and better... Guard duty TWICE a week, just cause' some other guys got some chalet/BBQ. Win liao lor... As for next week, I guess I can expect more to come. Good thing I bought my little fan already... I hope it works well!
Well, the old specs are leavin', things are gonna be a lot different from before... It sure feels kinda weird that many of your friends are now your superiors. Like, it just feels very off to add a title in front of their names when you call them... It's not like the old guys, when it just feels like a senior-junior relationship back in school to me... No more crap like the summoning incantations of "LCB~!", or the punctuations with "NBCB~!", and not forgetting one of the most commonly used phrases, "EH HARLOW! WHAT TIME 'REDY~?!" I can only hope that the new specs prove themselves well, and not get eaten by us in general...
To be, or not to be..? That is the question... Are you guys up for it?
On a sidenote, I feel as if economics is back to haunt me... I wanna get an acoustic guitar, a nice cheap Crumpler, a new duffel bag to replace my old and worn out one, and also a new MP3 player... I bet my if my wallet had a life, it would go on strike if it heard me saying these things... Unlimited wants, limited resources, hence SCARCITY results...
Haizzzzz~~~ Dang I really need that pay rise/back pay asap man...

FINALLY, after a long week in camp, I got to book out this morning... For some reason, the past week in camp felt really long. I guess its the deal with the new event that has come to us, the skills trainings, duties and last but not least, the most useless and what I feel is an utter complete waste of our precious time in the civvie world: RT.
Seriously, as if the guys have not had enough trainings in camp, and now they wanna make us stay back one more day just for an hour of senseless running and jumping around. Can't the higher ups have thought of something more productive? Maybe cater GYM SESSIONS in the training programmes? I'm sure that will be more helpful and more people might benefit from it.
Anyways, it has been almost a month since I signed the form to be boarded. Most people who signed it that long ago should have gotten a reply somehow or another by now, but why haven't I gotten any??? I'm starting to suspect some foulplay by some triple-kitkats... That's just plain dirty man...
Ok enough ranting, now for some livelier stuff. While I had the night's out yesterday, being the only one from my platoon who didn't went home, I hit the library in Lot 1 to check out some books on the genetics and evolution. After browsing about for about 30 minutes, I borrowed 2 books. At first I was a little afraid that I may not be able to understand the chim arguments in the books, but after reading a little bit last night and more this morning, I found them to be VERY interesting. Haha, BUDDY! Now I know why you like to borrow and read those chim chim books... Its like addictive man... Woot~! Hope I can finish reading them by 13 Nov... That'll be my first achievement after the 'A' Levels. :P
One more thing! I finally got my new specs! Woot~! Hope it works wonders now... Hehe. Oh, I have the sudden urge to go on POOL training... Dang it's been a while... One more item to add to my to-do list! ______________________________________________________

Sometimes, I wonder, how does it feel to be truly happy... What does it actually takes to be truly happy? Is it having a nice, caring and proper family? Or is it having friends who would go through thick and thin together? Or could it be having a stable and loving relationship with a person you truly love? Or maybe it's simply just being content with everything and live life to the best it is?
Seeing others sometimes make this question surface in my mind over and over again, and somehow it always evokes a certain sense of emptiness within my chest... And when I start to think about it, many 'Should have's, 'Could have's and "Would have's quickly appear after that.
Oh wells, I guess this is just another one of Life's mysteries, making Life itself so special... Let me just escape once again into the realms of my inner thoughts, my guitar and my music... Just one more time...
Just one more time...

Phew, this weekend had been a very tiring time for both my mind and stomach... Went through yet another difficult time, this time more drama than the previous times... At least that's how I felt...
Did I make the right decision this time? Will I live to embrace or regret it in the future?
I've been eating a lot these few days too, like really a lot. Maybe it's like to pay back the "food debt" that I've been having last week when I had no appetite at all. One minute I'm rejecting food that I normally will take, no questions asked, and the next I'm eating like its the only joy on Earth. Lets see now:
Saturday - breakfast = LJS texas chicken set --> (1) - lunch = char kuay tiao + carrot cake + coke --> (2) - dinner = BBQ @ ECP with the peeps from my platoon --> (3)
Sunday - lunch = dunno how many plates of sushi, tofu, etc @ suki sushi --> (4) - dinner = chicken @ popeyes --> (5)
Therefore, (1) + (2) + (3) + (4) + (5) = LOTS OF FATS & MONEY SPENT Wah sia lah, cannot sia... Emo-ness can make people fat and broke sia... Cannot cannot...
Note to self: Rather than stuffing yourself, play your guitar instead. Its healthier and more wallet-friendly.
Hmmn, speaking of guitar... I've recently been into acoustic music. After listening to songs by Taylor Swift and acoustic versions of other songs like Poker Face, Gifts & Curses, Misery Business, etc, I've been trying to imagine how would other songs sound like in acoustic... I hope I had more time, so I can go experiment on some songs in mind, like I Gotta Feeling, Viva la Vida, Before The Worst, and some others... Its like damn cool, and it really will sound nice, as proven by Boyce Avenue(some random guy who acoustified many songs into wonders, feel free to google or youtube him!). Really hope to do it soon...
Gosh its 1.30am already... Means its the start of book-in day... Haiz, 2x monday blues sia... GOSH LEMME START SCHOOL ALREADY!!!

Waking up to a cool Sunday morning, can probably be a good thing and definitely a bad thing for an NSF: 1. Good - It's nice, cool and cosy, with the cool breeze blowing gently over you while you are lying comfortably on your nice and warm bed... 2. Bad - It's Sunday, that means BOOK-IN DAY!!! Like, DUH~!
I am suddenly very confused over what area to specialize in NUS... After glancing through the modules in the the Life Sciences programme, my perfect image of me specializing in BMS has been totally shattered. >.<>
Well, I guess I've got... Lets see... 12 more months till ORD and another 8 more months till I enter uni to think about it... Haiz... Damn long siaaaaaaa~!

Phew! It has been a long long time since i last blogged... Brings back memories sia~~
Well, a lot has happened during the time i disappeared from blogger; good times, bad times, irritating times, memorable times, etc... Just hope i can get more out of life now that i'm serving NS, speaking of which makes me wanna rant sooooo much...
NS... Haiz... Hopefully the procedures finish quick... All it takes to make my day is a phone call from SGMC requesting me to go over and sign some documents... Whoa THAT'S IT sia! In your FACE man, the-man-who-totally-destroyed-all-my-respect-for-him... Hopefully buddy can get the phone call too, don't wanna move bunks without him sia...
Life is filled with irony... Take for instance, I grew up with avoiding people from the Raffles family of schools, and now my buddy a.k.a one of my BEST friend is from RJC... And maybe i was a little unfair to them, cause' through my buddy i realised that not everyone there are self-centered elitists whose noses can point towards the sky... Sad for them, cause in EVERY school, there's bound to be a handful of people that totally ruin the image of the school... Guess it really "takes two hands to clap" eh buddy?
Now, moving on... It has been like, 29 months now? It totally didn't occur to me that we will last that long... Most people don't even hit the 1 year mark, only a handful actually make it, and here we are now, almost hitting the 30 month mark already... It has been so long that I forgot how being single feels like. Lolz. Though there are a lot of things that I hope can be changed/improved between us, but in the end, its all about accepting each other for what they are, right? Wish I could really fully stay true to that sentence... Argh why is it so tough for me to do so??? Someone enlighten me please... Maybe its the reduced time spent together, or outside influence, or like what Men's Health said about the different stages in a relationship, or maybe a combination of all of the above? Its so confusing, so complicated, so tiring to think about, but its something i just can't stop thinking about... Good thing there's NS, it makes me totally drained out so i can sleep in peace. Lolz, another irony. Blehx...
Oh wells, i think that's enough ranting for today... Don't wanna turn this blog into another emo sink... "Stay happy yea?" - someone told me that... Kinda ironic, again, that the person who told me that made me damn sad once. But that's water under the bridge now, and i'll try to live to that! Cheers to life, and all its ironies... :p
