my cousin in primary sch introduced me to this bejeweled on facebook! me being a facebook idiot is currently addicted to it.

anyways, wed had nights off and went to north point. nothing much there.
fri was the best. almost lost my legs/ father's day.

was carrying a 70 over kg metal plate with spikes on it. i was facing the spikes whereas two man support it from the side. it is supposed to fit in to a groove. it so happened. one of the supporting guys, released his hand from the handle, apparently he said he was shag. i was quite pissed, because its my life he's dealing with. once he let go, the plate plunged downwards. i hugged the spike using my body.

if he were to apologize, i'll just laugh it off and forget about it. but he claims that EVERYONE, is pushing the blame on him. but the fact is, everyone knows that it is his fault. besides that, he did 3 things that made me super pissed off.

first, he said accidentals always happen, ITS OKAY.
woo, felt so warmed up when i heard this. fine, i still remained calm and spoke to him. he then threw his helmet and rifle on the bed and asked me what do i want.
so i asked him if he was asking for a fight. he being a mummy's boy, will never fight, me wouldnt risk going DB and losing my place in SMU.

2nd part, i asked him, do u admit its your fault and stop saying everyone's pushing the blame on you. he said "WHATEVER". that brought me to a high tide, though not exploded yet. cos whatever to me means he still doesnt admit his mistakes and just trying to entertain me. i asked him to repeat, and he really said whatever. so i let him kiss the wall:)

3rd action, he went around telling people he was wronged.

if he isnt so stubborn and just admit his mistake, i wouldnt be so pissed, even though my legs were at stake. i didnt even blame him for that. i'm just super fed up with him not admiting his bloody negligence.

anyways, fri booked out. taught my bro maths for a couple of hours, before revising for tuition.
sat, gave tuition and went jogging. sun, went for mass, then teach tuition, before going to my cousin's 21st birthday party.
tomorrow going out with guan, gym before booking in.

changing to livejournal soon. this is probably the last post here!

think last sat went selena's house to drink a little vodka, cant really rmbr.
this week's super busy. had to do double tuition, his exams are coming. planned to go out with guan,bro,dog they all. but really pressed for time. was about to go out with idiot also but had to revise maths topics, cos forgot quite alot already.

next week probably going out with dot, guan and idiot. i think double tuition also. so yea. this week's kinda eventful, i believe i've learnt something new. better vision of my goal. during guard duty i had alot of time to stare into blank space and think of my future, do some calculations. so yeap

gyming yesterday was useful man. booking in later. having the thought of going taiwan with my neighbour after ORD. stay with his rich aunty. hmm.

extremely disappointed

morning went for tuition. wow. pay's high. $80 bucks per lesson. hope i'm teaching him for 2 years. got a ride on BMW to main road by the dad. nice. tomorrow's competition. no pressure though.

weight loss program slow but rather successful. hope i can maintain. reaching target soon.

i've already got plans on what to do in future, what to expect. perhaps its just too much time in camp. tomorrow gonna go library before going for comp at clarke quay. dont wanna waste my time in camp although i really hate books. not gonna buy PSP and waste my life.

some people come and go. some will stay. at least in the mind.

army marathon last sun. 10kmm easy run. 65 mins was too much time. i wonder how some people cannot meet this timing.maybe its too crowded. after that went to have lunch at popeyes with the rest. then watched G.I. JOE before i left for home while they played pool. supposed to meet guan. cant rmbr what happened next.

mon when i woke up, i received a call. cos after the run, one of the COS told me i'll get a confinement cos i didnt sign book in book out book. LOL. to prevent complications like letting my PS who doesnt really like me know about it. i asked the sergeant to quickly give it to me. if not it might just turn into a weekend guard duty. so 1120am i received the call to book in by 1230. rushed,cabbed down. actually honestly. not that bad. free lunch + dinner. i went shopping at emart, try shoe and stuff. then read a money management book. cant believe i finished it. i studied maths (to teach tuition), took afternoon nap. only thing is. NO FREEDOM from the outside world.

tues- thurs was ippt training, and ippt test. i dont know what happened to me. i had gold standards for static stations, but obviously 2.4 <9:44 was not possible. around 1 min plus improvement. thurs night supposed to book out. cos i had silver. but was forced to stay back, TO TRAIN FOR GOLD. whats best. i ran 10km to train 2.4 -.- whatever. wed night and thurs night were nights out. wed went to tamp 1 to walk while others play lan. not my kind of games. but thurs i went with sergeants to play. had prata then went back camp.

was selected to play lan represent my unit. its like CS but SAF version. mon first prelim round with commandos. initially they gave up but now they wanna play. my OC's stand is for us to lose. so we dont have to spend so much time in this. we only had 2 hour practice on fri morning. others had at least 1 full week of daily prac. if we can win. its either pure luck or pure luck.

going out later tata.

wed went navigation course. carried 10kg field pack,4kg of water,rifle and food. walked around forests. to look for a board smaller than my comp screen. tiring of course. walked 15km at least upslope down slope. stinko helmet.argh. first day trial second day test. did those walking twice. lucky my sergeant and i lead the correct way. didnt waste too much time. plus i keep spotting the boards from afar. but thats probably what i contributed most. cos, i didnt take the signal set at all. lol. heavy and i was lazy after all the navigation.

had close combat training. then booked out yesterday. went fish and co. around 12 people. couldnt take picture. my meal was free. cos i helped wee kie on his SOG and c2. which total cost up to about $90 worth. he treated me to this $30 meal. lol.

i cant really click with most of my platoon mates. first thing. those who were posted there were. FAIL IPPT, BLUR COCKS. my fitness not say the best, but silver ippt, clear minded. mr KO's gonna leave cos he down pes. now who's the rare few thats rebellious and not blur? plus some are super hum ji. got prob cannot solve quietly, must tell superior and get their attention. SUPER HUM JI they get into trouble, selfish and not willing to take risk for a friend. ARGH.

this morning went to teach tuition, but something cropped up. so went late for 30mins. hope they dont have bad impression of me. heard my impression wasnt too bad for the first lesson. felt really bad for being late this time man. bad impression plus. $1.40 bus fare became $14.40 taxi fare. lucky tuition fees i'm getting is quite good i think. HEARD its 50-70.

mon hol cos of army half marathon tomorrow. cant go for mass. shit. mon off.

i think i should give her a break. stop pestering her( if i was). i might just be irritating. anyways, i just saw the most disgusting monster on earth.

i usually dont fall sick easily. but once i fall sick means one time good one. this year fell sick twice. this week i only went back camp on tues night. booked out this morning at 630am. yesterday was ATP. damn it. i was 1 shot away from $200. and. that 1 shot was my most confident position. practice and previous INAD i can score full marks. kns. the actual one i missed that one shot. AR! wasted. my whole platoon i was the only hope left to get that $200. but. disappointment. then re-shot again for the badge only. confirm plus chop i got full. (damn it, even after the test i can get full score). but system register as 1 shot less for my detail i think. so i have to re-shoot another section for that 1 point.

didnt really have the mood to shoot anymore. whats the point of the badge without the money. so i went to re shoot the night one. again. my most confident position. from bmt until now. NEVER missed be4. except in the morning once. then kns. missed AGAIN. so didnt get money. didnt get badge. what a loser. lol. whats best is. i've got a friend thats a "cannot shoot" person. his lane error. he got 17 out of 16. the rest he barely passed. and. he got marksmanship badge. wah.like what yin wei says. the world works in different ways.

we need luck in things we do. some holy people calls it god's will. absolutely true. 1 bullet cost me $200.
went to facebook just now. i think i'm a facebook idiot. life's full of regrets too. why did i take MC on re-sit test and ippt. then now. IPPT silver easily. what the hell seriously. army seriously made me lose purpose in life. every week only thing to look forward is book out.

short but tiring week in camp. fri had driving test. break too much traffic rules. mainly "failure to ensure safety". nvm, can always try again, no hurry. yesterday went gym with stuly, then met guan for dinner. soup spoon. then went to some flea market. bought some earings. obviously not for myself. guan bought shoes.

today.church.gave rena her present which i kept at home for quite some time.

last tues was arranging pics and sorting them. happen to see how stupid and retarded i was. seriously. not sour grape, but seriously. i think at least i like the right person now. next week sat burned, might not even come for mass. too much time in camp. planned the year end concert already. even had time to think of the small details. thought for mr bong his bari stuff. of course, her.

too much time isnt always good. 近 水 楼 台 先 得 月

willing to put my big ego down but its always difficult to woo someone in army.

just some random thoughts and encounters.

was doing guard duty on thurs night. thank god its on a weekday! its quite tiring though. walk 2 hours ( around 5km), sleep 4 hours, walk again. morning came and we didnt really have to patrol/prow already. so i became the one that checks bag. so happened that one old uncle came to my station and i found some cigarettes. so i just randomly said, this is not counterfeit right. then he replied in a rather impatient tone. of course its real, if not i show u for what. ok, i was thinking who is this cocky man.who just probably works in the canteen. note: he's wearing civilian clothes.
afternoon went for lunch saw this man. wearing uniform. na ma. warrant officer. dont think i offended him.

oh yesterday saw sharron at orchard, though she didnt see me. coincidental.

saw one of the kids i taught. saw the parent twice at the same mall. couldnt rmbr who she was, although super familiar. until the second time she walked with her boy then i rmbr. woo. flashed back memories. i seriously learnt alot there. this is human nature. being judgemental is part of us. for example. everyday someone does his job well. probably for 10 years. so one day, he did something wrong. everyone will just think and look at that wrong he did, not taking into consideration the good he has done. this is normal. i'm serious!

sometimes i envy rich people like guan, kenneth. they buy things like no need much consideration. while i need to consider opportunity cost. or maybe its just me being thrifty. i'm
neither poor nor rich. perhaps just above average. guan's a lucky fat woman.

my bunk mates call me RCK(rifle cleaning kit), which actually means, random cock king. am i really too random.

got into new camp at loyang area, just behind guan's house. more xiong than bmt, everyday pt. people there are selfish and blur. no joke. some blur already, still cocky. these are usually the selfish ones, see u in need of help also die die wouldnt help. but blur's the main thing. everyone there's from jc, but they dont seem to have basic common sense plus blur is seriously written on their face. HOW DID I MANAGE TO LAND THERE. its a torture to work with blur people. i'm impatient.maybe its supposed to be a time for me practice tolerance.

had nights out and went tamp fish and co with my army friends. full of nonsense just because of a pretty Myanmar waitress .
last week booked in early, on sat night so didnt really have time to blog. this week only came out on sat night, but got 2 days off in due. went straight to guan's birthday party since its so near.

yesterday went out with my neighbour to gym, catch transformers. ate at mahattan fish market. took couple seats. then we went to orchard for dinner and far east for his clothes. realised what we just did seems to look like gay couple. lol. then guan met us up. almost bought her 300+ agnes b bag. rich people is like that.

some people just need to be more tactful in their choice of words/ tone. even when i'm angry/ quarreling, i dont really like to bring out points that kill. like those very sensitive ones. but some do.

i'm intending to lose another 10kg.

tomorrow's booking in already. after i bathe then pack stuff. gonna be a little rush cos tmr needa wake up super early. things do happen for a reason, coincidentally or not. bass outing yesterday. its different nowadays. uncle sam will get what i mean i believe. disappointed though. double impact. if u include that one, which is actually affecting me quite a bit, then it'll be triple impact. one of the impact has already been there.
