Saturday - Dragon Tiger Gate - Saw a junior of mine -

I was so tired... that i slept from 4am, to 4pm.

Whew. It was a good sleep... even though i woke up at 10+, i immediately went back to sleep again.

Left at 6+ to head over to JP for the "Dragon Tiger Gate" show..
It was quite a good show~ Worth $9.50 ... compared to paying $8 for the Nacho Libre. Grrr. it will be remembered as the show i walked out of..

90 minutes of screening time. 50+ minutes of action. 40+ minutes of story telling.

Worth it.

After that, went for dinner, then Qs and Choy went to Rush, while Lick went home, and i stayed to meet my friend for some arcade...

I guess the only thing worth mentioning is that i saw someone wearing a Law & Management T-shirt... a female actually... somewhat belonging to the type of girl i find very attractive.
Too bad she's attached... and with someone. Or else i may just walk up and talk to her..

It does brings me memories of my poly life... I miss my poly friends quite alot.. (its a suddenly thing..) i want to meet most of them for a talk...

Sighh...

Suddenly filled with a sense of boredom and routine... i don't go anywhere during the weekends... and i do the same things over and over...

I need a new hobby or something..~

Friday - Dinner at Jp with colleagues -

Friday -

Work was normal... i managed to slack a bit too.

After work we decided to head down to JP for dinner... 6 of us went. Initially wanted to eat fast food, but at 7+ it was just too crowded... so we decided to head over to Crystal Jade instead... we saw quite a long queue, but we managed to get in, in less than 3 minutes..~

Why? My friend claims he has the VIP card... (right.) Actually it was a combination of both my friends' excuses.. 1) He's in a hurry(because he's hungry.. haha), 2) we have 6 pple.

hoo. The people outside had to wait for quite a long time before coming in... i believe some of them must be glaring at us..

KC even met his Train-mate.. a JC girl who he looks at everyday. But of course, he didn't talk to her..

Dinner was okay lar. The noodles were quite tasteless =/, but it wasn't that bad.

After that we walked around a bit... it was really quite fun having a big group of people walking around... esp since they weren't people i meet up with to go out all the time..

I then went home and kingdom hearted, since Jx was using the comp til 12 + =_=

Wednesday - Talking to - Thursday - Duty

Wednesday-

What can i say happened, other than the fact that it was very busy in the morning, and that we had a talking-to by our very own sgt.

Seems that the medical centre is becoming ... very slack. Or rather our dear medics are. Its true really. I used to be so totally devoted to my work .. i used to Care so much. But now i don't really give my all liao. maybe just 75%.. (which is still significantly more than the 20+% i feel some pple are giving), but still, some of them had a reflection time while a few of us went home earlier.

I heard later on that the reflection was just talking crap.

But i do notice a couple of people coming out to help out now. Maybe things Will be better from now on. I'm keeping my fingers crossed...

I reached home and played 4 hours straight of Kingdom hearts. Dang, i love that game.

Thursday - Duty

Its duty day, and i woke up after close to 5 hours of sleep. I swear my eye bags are coming out.

I reached very early, and well, perhaps the highlight of the day was that someone wanted to cut his wrists, and the doctor had wanted to refer him to IMH(aka woodbridge), via ambulance. Dang! I was so excited.. i've never even gone to NUH before, much less IMH(actually i HAVE been there to play a chess competition a few years back. I do like that place alot. Nice buildings, rather peaceful)

BUT, in the end, the CO or OC came over, and then counselled him. I heard that he went for a counselling course, which lasted a whole week.

Well, in the end he didn't go, and i sure hope that he's leading a better life back at his unit now.

I had to stay in the sickbay in the afternoon to tend to some sickbay patients..
Managed to grab a few winks here and there. Heard from one of my colleages that my eyebags are all over my face...

aargh! i need a facial! a facial! (haha..)

In the evening we ordered Botak jones, some western food... but who knew that when we went to the cookhouse, there was ALSO western food! Aaargh..~ i can't believe it. The last 2 times i was on duty and tried to order i couldn't... and when i finally could... i don't need it.

This is kinda like how life is right... when you want it, it doesn't come. When you don't need it, it comes...

hmm..~

I spent the evening gaming a bit, then when i wanted to jog, it was too late liao, and i'm so tired..~

Anyways i dunno what i'll be doing tomorrow night. Yawns..

Tomorrow will be a better day!

Monday (duty) - Tuesday - Long jog - fatigue -

Monday was a surprisingly relaxing day... i can't believe its my duty day!
The sad thing was that they were able to leave and catch the 5:15 bus while i was stuck on duty =/

I only had 4 hours of sleep though, cause i had some gunbound with gerlind =_=

Maybe its relaxing because i was high from not enough sleep. behz..~

Oh yea, i wanted to order Botak Jones(western) for dinner, but they don't do delivery yesterday. I have no idea why. Maybe he's sick or something... grr. Last thursday i tried to order too but i was turned down.

I don't believe i can't eat it on thursday! I shall be optimistic!

Tuesday-

Busy day. They did a mock activation... twice. And quite alot of scoldings. But its true lar, the discipline here is getting from bad to worse. Even i also nua liao, and that means alot.

Nothing much pleasant or worth remembering during work, and so they shall be forgotton.

After work i declined my friend's offer to go to the gym, but invitated another friend to jog instead. beh. I was so intent on resting too.

In the end, we took a 1 hr jog/slow run, i think total about 5km like that ba. Surprisingly i wasn't very tired when it ended. maybe cause it was REALLY a slow jog.

After the bathe and dinner, it was 9+ liao. Wrote an email for dear dad, checked a bit of bro's hw, and it was 10+!

Omg! Time just flies me by! I haven't even gamed or anything like that yet..

And soon i'll have to sleep because i am feeling quite tired...
Tomorrow will be a better day!

Rambling...

I feel that:

Its a general principle for good people to get hurt.
The lucky ones are able to meet someone who cherishes them.
The others will keep getting hurt over and over.

And even if others don't hurt them,
They'll hurt themselves...
"What if i've done this instead of not doing anything?"
"Why am i so powerless?"

Then eventually some of them get so hurt,
they turn bitter and unkind.

Is it better like that,
or is it better to just leap down and die?

For when you jump,
your life ends...

But its just the beginning,
for others who care..

Saturday - Storm, Sunday - Kingdom hearts2

I woke up at around 6:15 =_= because i had to reach Sembawang camp at 8:30 for Storm.
Sighs.

I woke up really reluctantly, and proceeded to wash up and take the train over. I tried to sleep but i couldn't, thankfully i managed to rest my eyes a bit.

Storm was ... okay i guess, but all that went in my head was a bit of bandaging, and maybe how to take care of a snake bite victim... that's all.

After storm we went to Ang Mo kio via Cab, and had lunch there, before returning home.
I slept from 4-8, and headed down to JP cause i said i'll meet Jeslyn up(she's working at Milkboy on saturdays).

Oh yea, i borrowed Bruce almighty in the afternoon, and i happened to see Noel beside me. weird coincidence eh.

When i tried to return the disc, they ejected my card =( I don't know why they did that, but it sure is rude. After trying unsuccessfuly for a few times, i decided to forget it and return it tomorrow.

Went down to Jp and met up with her. Well, i would like to say i did something constructive, but all i did was to idle there for close to an hour, while giving a few comments on what i think looks nice on her... she is quite an open and friendly girl after all.

Nothing much happened after i met Noel...

Sunday ...

Slept til 3pm. Then gamed and read til 8+. Saw jinsha on tv with some new guy singing 'bei feng chui guo de xia tian'. Beh, JJ sings it much better. Oh yea, Jinsha looks skinny on TV too. Not as pretty, but she looks small and petite...

Met up with Jooseng and Benson at 429. We chatted about old times, and also about army life =_=. Its an eventuality i guess..

I happened to see a family push a stalled car before i boarded the bus, and it feels kinda weird, cause its the first time i've seen it happening.. i thought Singaporeans all 'ai mian zi', would rather wait for the repair pple to come than to do something like that, but *shrugs*, maybe i was wrong.

Oh yea, i saw Germaine and gang going out for dinner. I didn't even recognise them until i saw a couple of them wave at me. I just guessed that its germaine and it happened to be them, going out for dinner.

Which makes me feel a bit, left out. Sigh. i guess i was never part of them in 5n1. I had nothing to talk to them about. Not cars, not driving license... nothing.

Oh well, i guess not everyone can click together.

I still have my kingdom hearts 2 though, and i'll click with anyone who talks about that with me. haha.~

Tomorrow i'll be on duty, so i hope it'll be a good day...~

Friday - Half day off - Depressed -

Thursday was duty day, thankfully nothing much happened..
Nothing more to say on this matter.

Friday afternoon i had a half day off, so after reaching JP i decided to hang out a bit. After staying for 2 hours, my friends successfully psychoed me to go over to SIM, where i got some brochures and course information on quite alot of courses...

SIM is quite a nice place, but its not as big as i thought... there's just one 6 storey building, and add 2 cafeterias to the building... its like... my Business school building in TP... but the charges for the courses are ... alot more i can say.

Having bought tickets for the Nacho Libre show by Jack black before i left for SIM, we headed back to JP via bus/train after having lunch/dinner there. It wasn't much, but at least it wasn't expensive...

I managed to catch up with cousin denise on the train.. seems life is the same Old... zhenbin going to ord soon... haha, when i mentioned marriage, she says most likely zb will get married first...

oh well.

Went to JP, shot some hoops, then watched the show.

Boy, did i make a mistake with this one.

I looked at the flick for 25 minutes, stone faced. What kinda comedy is this? Maybe i was expecting too much, but i was glad when Celine messaged me and asked me for dinner.. i gratefully accepted, and left the cinema before i could withstand even more of the cruelty they call a comedy...

Seriously, after the show, i felt very depressed. I don't know why. Its the first time i ever walked out of a show, but i can't explain my feelings... maybe like what Gerlind said, i'm just burned out, but i don't think so.

No point brooding about it. yea, after me and cel went for a drink at coffeebean, we walked around and i bought Jinsha's cd! Unfortunately, i found out that it wasn't that good the day after... but that's another entry.

I reached home quite late, but decided to play a bit of Kingdom hearts and also watch the ghost whisperer at the same time, courtesy of Kaili who reminded me. That somehow made me feel better.(i was pretty sure it was the game though), and i slept at around 12+1.

A few quotes or paragraphs i picked out from a book

On happiness -

"... there are moments of joy and laughter, the comfort of friendship, but enduring happiness? If it exists i have not discovered it"
"Perhaps it only comes when you are in love"

On fear & courage -

"There can be no courage without fear.. Remember that when your belly trembles, and your legs grow weak"

"This is how courage and fear works. Both will always be pushing, they are never still."
*While pushing your palms against another's.*
"And a man cannot choose to stop pushing. For if he backs away the fear will come after him, and push him back another step, then another."

ah.. can't seem to find any more in the book...~

A little something from the mail

21 things that may or may not mean anything to you.. but maybe they'll make you a better person if you follow it? *shrugs*

ONE. Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully.

FIVE. When you say, "I'm sorry," look the person in the eye.

Saw this in an email..

Did you know that those who appear to be very strong in heart, are real weak and most susceptible?

Did you know that those who spend their time protecting others are the ones that really need someone to protect them?

Did you know that the three most difficult things to say are:

I love you, Sorry and help me

Did you know that those who dress in red are more confident in themselves?

Did you know that those who dress in yellow are those that enjoy their beauty?

Did you know that those who dress in black, are those who want to be unnoticed and need your help and understanding?

Did you know that when you help someone, the help is returned in two folds?

Did you know that it's easier to say what you feel in writing than saying it to someone in the face? But did you know that it has more value when you say it to their face?

Did you know that if you ask for something in faith, your wishes are granted?

Did you know that you can make your dreams come true, like falling in love, becoming rich, staying healthy, if you ask for it by faith, and if you really knew, you'd be surprised by what you could do.

But don't believe everything I tell you, until you try it for yourself, if you know someone that is in need of something that I mentioned, and you know that you can help, you'll see that it will be returned in two-fold.

Wednesday - Sick - Unsympathetic - Saw a thief -

Well, today is really a day of many events...

I woke up feeling horrible, warm and cold... then probably blew away a whole month's worth of stuff from my nose.. ahh..

Then went to work, happened that the person in front of me took the last seat, so i had to stand all the way to work...

Work was routine, i had enough help today so it was alright, but i decided to report sick myself somewhere at 11+, after i got this headache and felt very cold at the same time. I took some tablets earlier but it didn't seem to help my leaking nose.. so I got a MC today for the first time, but from the unkindly looks i received from some people, you'll think i get a MC every other day or something...

Do i really have to endure this? Then it dawned on me that me being sick is my problem, not theirs... i'm not going to care what they think of me anymore.. But whoa, if this is the way the working life is out there... i shudder to think of life in the future..

Thanks to those who cared though..~

I took a cab back with naresh and yanxun, the latter alighted with me at Jurongpoint. Just
a few steps later, we saw some guy in office attire chasing a bangra worker. He kept shouting, Stop! Don't run! While he was chasing him. They were running pretty slowly too, then yanxun commented that the guy chasing was wearing leather shoes.. that's why.

Hmm, they chased til they were infront of me, then i saw the bangla walk back, managed to confuse the guy. Some middle aged guy approached him, but he pushed him away and started to run again.

How to say this? We had 2 chances to stop him, but my reflexes weren't working.. like what yx says, it could be a gang fight or something... we did follow him until JP where we saw him run off into the horizon...

Only later did we realise he stole the guy's wallet and hp...

Was this the 'once in a lifetime' opportunity that people talks about? And i just let it slip by?
I sure hope not, cause i wasn't really thinking at that time =_=

I do hope that the guy was caught, though it seems rather unlikely... even now, i'm still feeling woozy after sleeping for 5 hours. Beh. Lets hope i'm fit enough to do my duty tomorrow...

Took the train back, and saw quite alot of pple in yelllow and red shirts, i do believe they're from SAJC. Doing what i have no idea... And i happened to see Peiqi too. She looks very different from the last time i saw her, which was probably a few months ago... she looks even younger now... if there's a phrase called 'reverse aging', she would be the first example i've seen of it..~

On a sidenote..

I need to find a place to call my own, a place with no unkind words, no disapproving stares, and a place where i can be happy...

Dinner @ Jack's place - Work work work -

Sunday night i was at bukit panjang, had jack's place for dinner with my whole family, cause there's this $60 voucher we got.

The food wasn't really that great, and the bill amounted to $120 for the 5 of us, 4 adults and a kid.
Walked around after that and bought a fruit juice grinder at NTUC. I also happened to see this girl, who reminds me alot of suyi, when she was in sec sch i think.

Man, i think i'm attracted to this certain look. Like ... shoulder length hair, a certain type of specs... how to describe? this certain look lar. Dunno if she glanced at me or not, but i won't forget... for a few days at least. haha.~

I played a bit more kingdom hearts at night, til aobut 1am =_=

Regretted it when i woke up at 6:30+, and spent a rather bad morning. Sometimes, life just isn't fair when you're out there doing all the work, and you see people playing games when you're working. Sucky thing is you're being paid the same..

I guess its my appointment. I should have researched alot more before i chose it.. or before they chose me even. Oh well.. Life's like this.

I got over it in the afternoon, and we had some soccer in the evening. Ah-hah, today is the day where Keat gave Stuart a bleeding lip. remember it~

Oh yea, they've been drilling and stuff from friday, and they continued today... they're going to set up this global radio system, in which we can only tune in to power 98(the only channel that SAF supports.) Isn't this cool? it'll be like macdonalds.. ~

When i reached home, i immediately changed and got down, to prepare for a run. Saw guang hong and had a short chat with him, before running my usual routine. Then saw Shun ming on my way back... talk about a day of meeting old friends..

After that, went home, dinner, kh2 a bit, and now i'm feeling exhausted.

At least i'll be coming home a bit earlier tomorrow.. will be despatching. I'm going to try and catch some sleep..~ Adious~

The past week - Highlights

Alot have happened...

Yet it feels like nothing much has happened...
The events just pass me by, and they'll stay as memories...

Long post ahead, read at yr own peril..

Tuesday evening, as i was coming back from home, i saw an old primary school friend... seems he's ORDed, and started his very own waffle shop as he's preparing to go into a nursing degree... hmm. I can't imagine opening my very own shop at the age of 21.. must have spent quite a bit...
Anyone wants to open a shop with me as a partner anytime soon? =)

Wednesday night i met Noel up and gamed quite a bit... grr. He was more than an hour late. I seem do keep waiting for him eh? Hmm, if i added up all the time waiting for him... i think at $5 an hour, i would have made at least $50... at least..~ (Are you reading this noel? haha.)

Thursday was spent watching Pirates of The Carribean 2, Dead man's chest with Qs and Wq.
I kinda liked 1 better though.. 2 seems a bit too... they're trying too much to make it funny that it isn't that funny to me.

Heh, it is a flick by Walt Disney pictures...

Friday night i was at chevrons with weixiang and Jooseng... the service was horrible, the environment was bad too. What happened to the cute girls? What happened to prompt service?

Man, i don't think i'm going back there again.

Jooseng had to leave us early cause Weiquan's mother collapsed while visiting her husband... and jooseng had to go over and look abit.

Friday was also the day that i realised i had to do RT on saturday cause KC had his wisdom tooth extracted...

Its strange how much you have to do when you're a good guy ya? Maybe if i were more bad tempered or had something planned, i would have rejected this, but nah. I guess its just meant to be.

We had IV too. On my off day thursday, they decided to have Live, and kick soccer. Then on friday when i'm back, they had "Live" infusion... talk about luck!

Saturday afternoon... RT cover..
And i had 2 cases. 2! Both were lying down on the floor, and well, to break it up into 2 different cases; 1 of them was running til he got a headache, then he squatted down, got dizzy, and lied on the floor.

Aaron's advice: Pls take note, if you're having a headache from running or anything, please don't squat down, slowly go on into a walk, then when you're feeling a bit better, sit down. Don't squat...

I evacuated him on the rover, and brought him back to the medical centre.

Just when i thought it was over... i received a call from the PTI's office, asking me to go to the starting point, so that's what me and the driver did... and there we saw another guy lying on the ground.

Omg. This time he could speak, and i found out that he's hyperventilating... he also complained that he's having cramps from the chest down. (I later found out that it was because of his hyperventilation.)

Evacuated him back... and then thankfully... that was the last of it.

And its such a good day for running too.. sheesh..

I may be cycling later... yawns, but i've just eaten, so it may take a while. Drop me a comment or something someone.

Enjoy the coffee, instead of the cup~

A group of alumni, highly established in their careers, got together to
visit their old university professor. Conversation soon turned into
complaints about stress in work and life. Offering his guests coffee,
the professor went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of
coffee and an assortment of cups - porcelain, plastic, glass, crystal,
some plain looking, some expensive, some exquisite - telling them to
help themselves to the coffee.

When all his former students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor
said: "If you noticed, all the nice looking expensive cups were taken
up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is but normal for
you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source of your
problems and stress. What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the
cup, but you consciously went for the best cups and were eyeing each
other's cups. Now consider this: Life is the coffee, and the jobs,
money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold
and contain Life, and do not change the quality of Life. Sometimes, by
concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee God has
provided."

So, don't let the cups drive you... enjoy the coffee instead.

Monday - CPR recert

I slacked around in the morning as i was having fumigation cover...
Then at 12 i booked 3 cabs and we left at 12:30+ for Nee Soon Camp..~

First time i see 3 cabs lined up side by side... it was pretty cool.. heh.

The CPR thing wasn't much.. just that they modified it to 30 compressions to 2 breaths instead of 15:2.

We had lunch at the canteen there too, and caught up with a couple of old medic friends..~

Then left for home... i decided to take a short jog... but after that i felt so tired. phew..~

Really nothing much to report here, unless you want to count my conversations with 2 close friends... you know who you are..~

Tuesday ... i dunno what it will bring. Yawns.

Sunday, July 09, 2006

Happy Birthday Celine~

Yea, its a bit slow, but at least i typed this entry right? haha..~

Anyways, this is just to congratulate Celine on reaching the age of 20...
No longer a teenager.. (Though i always thought you were a bit more streetwise than some people i know..)

I hope you enjoy and make full use of your working life... but don't forget about me ya?
Got anything on your mind can tell me... that's what friends are for right?

and i'm not getting fatter! Its just the baby fats on my cheek!
But at least i look young right? right?

Hope you like the watch we gave you.(right, you chose it yourself, how can you not like it? haha.. see, i'm clever right? Like that you won't end up with something you don't like :D )

Friday - Duty day

Nothing that bad on duty day, just that i got stuck with 2 new medics to TMC.
I showed them the ropes, and then did my stuff.

Not to bore you with more of my work life, so...

Last parade was at 5pm, and they left at around 5:10... that's really early for once... and beh, im stuck in camp doing duty... oh wells.

At least nothing really bad happened today.. so i'm glad.

Oh yea, Junyan was issued with a warning by the TDS people after he ran out in his admin to collect food... which is weird. Why is there an issue with wearing admin kit to go outside camp?

Watched Smallville, then showered and played my psp a bit before i had a conversation with Kaili...

Wah, everytime i talk to her, it seems her relatives are getting married. Like its quite happening on her side... then she's an auntie liao.. haha.. she loves kids too, so she's looking forward to her niece's first month, when she'll be able to see her.

We talked until Ghost Whisperer started, then watched the show and stopped talking at 10:45++ when she had to hang up..

more catching up to do next time~

Slept at 1+ after talking with Edwin and Jiaxing... yawns... and here i was planning to sleep at 8+ or something...

Saturday, July 08, 2006

Saturday - Shopping Spree!

I was waken up Kelvin's hp... why is it i'm always the first person to wake up by alarms, and not by the original owners themselves? =_=

It was probably 6+7, then at 7:30 i woke up again, cause they're leaving for the NDP rehearsal. Got woken up at 8:30 by the piping system, no one said anything though. hmmph. So much for an alarm.

Took the cab home with the rest, then reached home to play an hour of my Suikoden Tactics before sleeping a bit at 11+

I woke up at 12+ with a sms regarding my big pikachu... after settling that, i slept again til 2+.
Watched a couple of animes then left for Bugis to meet Celine... who's bday happens to be on the 6th of July, some applause for Celine pls (clap clap clap).

So begins a 4+ hour long session of shopping in which i bought, 1 slingbag, 1 er normal bag, 2 watches, and also a watch for her. Not to mention 5 cds. I spent a grand total of ... about $245. Phew. That's like half my salary.

Scary thought.

I haven't met Celine for a long time, so we chatted and caught up. Hmm, i may end up studying at SIM with her next year when i ORD. At least i have a 'companion' to study with. But she's taking part time, and i'm most likely taking full time... so ... well..~ *shrugs*

At around 9+ we went home, and i took close to an hour to finish burning the cds into mp3s and renaming all of them.. i'm so happy i finally got my Fan Yi chen cd, among others..~ Now i have new songs to listen to..~

Beh, i got duty later though, so i got to wake up early =_=
Oh well... I did have a rather eventful day. I guess shopping is theurapetic... (how do you spell that anyways?)

For a better week ahead~

Tuesday - The New JP (Time Crisis 4) - 2 special people

I had a bad day at work today... all the people pushing me around... the clerks, people with strange requests, (no medic except me at the counter) type of thing again.

I seriously don't get it. We have close to 15 people, but how come i can be the only person in front, and only me?

Where's everybody else??

Weird...

Sooooo.. i decided i needed to destress, and i went to JP.

As i was topping up my card, i saw this new game.. Time Crisis 4! And i decided to play it...
Its really nice... for so long i've never had a game pump me up... And i played some Virtua tennis by the way..

Talk about 2 special people i met.

The first one is a clerk, who was waiting for a docket that i took some time to find(not to mention the various patients i have to attend to.) The guy was saying ... "ccb" (in full), and then making some sort of noise, every few seconds.

Uh huh, everyone was trying their best to ignore him, but it didn't quite succeed... I think he's doing it subconsciously, but how can i be sure? BMT must have really broken him... oh yea, he looks like a beng too.

The second one was at the TC4 machine... he was looking at the game 'advert' and then taking the gun, trying to shoot(while the adverts were on.) Then because the game has mentions of "2 o'clock, 11 O'clock", he looked at his watch while doing so, and then proceeded to shoot. At some time or another he'll grab the gun and point it at his head and shoot.

How different is this guy from the other? This one looks decently normal and dressed, prolly in his mid twenties...

Oh well, another mystery not to be solved...

Saturday - back to HKS

I woke up at 9, washed my face and stuff, and then took a cab to JP, all 3 of us.

I grabbed 2 buns from yesterday's nightsnack and ate it on the bus, and alighted to go to school..

The school hasn't changed that much physically... some stuff were added in, like this new rock wall near the scouts den, and some lockers outside the female toilet, toilet paper outside of the toilet..(why i have absolutely no idea). etc.

Truth be told, basically i just carried some poles to this place, where me and a couple of others built this giant er... shelter. Spent the whole afternoon on it actually..

Then i played a couple of the games they would be playing when they came back..(they left in the afternoon for some trekking).

The sun was shining quite brightly this afternoon, and i'm kinda sianz that i wore a black shirt.. grr. but what to do..~

I got orientated back to scouts... basically in this camp they're doing the same things i did years ago... though discipline wise and speed wise... everything is much slower and different from then..

wah i'm really so tired i dunno what to write liao.. eventually me, my friend weixiang, and Jianhui.. (the more senior ones), went out for dinner where Bro Jh gave us a zhu char treat...

Then went back to school, grabbed my bag and left... ~

Thursday and Friday (Duty)

My legs have finally recovered... the whole week i was limping around =/

Well, on thursday we had a couple of mass casualty drills, and because of that i went back quite late... most of them were staying in to take the IPPT on friday anyways.

So i left with Clement and took 257 to JP.. Sigh. Clement is the same old, he complains and talks alot ... alot ... alot... which makes me realise why sometimes they don't like me when i complain so much... i'm getting a taste of my own medicine literally~

I went to the library, returned/borrowed books, then after drinking down a cup of iced milk tea at MOS, i went up to the arcade, where i played some tennis games... It was here that i met Weixiang, and we played together..

He told me that there's a camp on sat, and invited me to go... Well, i always wanted to go back to sec school, so i told him i'll be there after my duty, which is tml.

Friday... duty day... loads of stuff happened again.
In the morning it was quite messy, cause the new pple(who has been here for 2 weeks), messed up some of the registration, and i had to take charge...

Truth be told, i did quite alot of extra work this week cause my IC is out sailing... luckily i had the new medics with me to distribute some of the work..

Something else happened today between me, gary and edward... actually between gary and edward, but i shall not say what.

Anyways i watched a couple of anime on my psp, then went to sleep at around 11.

Woke up at 5+ ... 5 times... cause of Edward's phone(?), which kept ringing. I think its an alarm bell. Strangely enough, he didn't seem to notice... i had to go over and tap him ... and i even called him on my phone.. Grrr..

Eventually after the 5th time it ended... it was on 5 minute intervals i think... hah, even the phone gave up on him =_=
