POP Parade was the highlight of the week. finally i got my black beret. with this it marks the end of Trades Course and the start of a new phase- Infantry Training. before we proceed on to Armour Training. with this, also means that i can now book in and out in civi, get later book in timings and earlier book out timing. haha.

last week was outfield again. from mon to wed. actually i think from now on my weeks would be like this. going outfield for half the week then after that coming back to camp to recuperate. anyways this week would be a short week as we should be bookin out this wednesday nite if everything goes according to plan. then i shall cross my finger that this week my company wld not be doing any guard duty. otherwise it would be super sians as i think i sure kena wan. coz i have 3 extras to serve due to some stupid reason. if everything goes along nicely, it would be a super long weekend for us.

would be outfield again tomorrow. sianzation. havin some battle course for the 3 days. hope everything is alrite and that my saw is stil down so i can use my SAR :))

after my parade yesterday, went ta watch Pirates with ter, sara, sk and khai. caught the midnite show. and ya. the show was kinda draggy. but it was alrite. i muz say. shld watch since it is suppose to be the last of the installment. now wld be waiting for the other nice movies to open so i can go watch. next week Shrek 3. haha

bookin in later in the nite. tink i am gg to head to bed straight. coz i am quite tired. din slp more than 9 hrs in total over the past week due to "admin" purposes. sucks. but ya. have to suck it in and press on.

wat did i do last week? went outfield lo for 3 days for spa retreat where i had mud bath, enjoy nature and slpt with mosquitoes. gg to do it again tmr. sianssss.... zzzzz.... good thing it's onli 3 days 2 nites. i think i wld die if it's longer. haha. to simply put it i love the outfield as long as it doesnt rain :)) wells, that was more or less wat i did for the last week. nth much.

Friday.

Book Out Day!!! we book out darn early last friday and i quickly rushed home as i was suppose to meet poh ru for dinner at Lot 1 before proceeding down to Holland Village for some drinks at Harry's where there is a live band. meet poh ru for dinner and we went to eat at Ajisen Ramen coz she got a cravin for Tom Yam Ramen. lol. sat there till it closed then send her home. after that i took a bus down to Holland Village to meet up with elly, sk where we went to Harry's for our weekly live band performance. :P yeah, and at someone's request, went to help her dian ge. lol. ooh. and phoebe joined us later. apparently that nite, MI had their Sports Day too. heard it was pretty good. too bad i left the sch alr.

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!!

Thursday

Day 1 of my block leave. didnt do much today but rather spend the whole day with some of my plt mates, Andrew, Zheng Ting, Yiheng, Reagan. started off the day by going to this restuarant in Chinatown to yumcha. we basically whacked a lot of dim sums. haha. and we jus were too full in the end to move. after that we headed down to vivo for movie and walkaround. caught the movie 28weeks later, and i muz say that unless u enjoy the gore and violence dun watch the movie. :)) haha. and after a long time i finally had ben & jerry's!!!! heex. michs was jealous that i keep eating them as i keep tellin her about how nice it was and even send her a pic to prove my point. lol

ooh. bought a pair of sneakers!!! happy. lol. it was to replace my spoilt pair. well. it felt good shopping. we walked the entire vivo quite a few times and everytime tat we walked, the ppl lining up for doughnuts at that doughnut shop doesnt seem to go down. muz really go try it 1 day. after around evening time, we all jus headed home after a long hard day of shopping, eating and playing.

Friday

Day 2 of block leave. today spend it with my MI classmates. headed off to town to do some shopping by myself first and bought some clothes. elly joined me around evening or rather later and we headed off to Sakae @ wheelock for dinner. yeah. and we were totally famished. then sk happen to be there already then so he joined the both of us for dinner. there was a long line of ppl waiting at to get in there and we lined up for quite some time before we could get a seat inside. we were there till it closed before we joined the rest at Holland Village for some drinks

took a cab down to holland village. and the rest of them were already there. wells, not all of them were able to join us as sara was bookin out on sat onli and khai was confine, ter had fieldcamp, pohru had to work. so ya. the drawbacks of serving our nation. :P we headed off to this bar called Harry's Bar for some drinks as they had a live band there. well, pubbin really beats clubbing. that's wat i think la. at least i dun get all so smoky after i come out. we sat down there till it closed around 1am then headed off to Eski Bar jus down the street for yet some more drinks.

wells, the nite is young so y waste it? haha. over at eski, got a challenge to stay in that cold room for 5mins so i jus took up the challange and stayed in there. wth. it was really cold lo. was freezing when i came out. haha. got my free drink and i ordered Lychee Martini!! love that drink ever since i drank it at The Balcony. but then, the mixture over at Eski was too thick. wells, elly had 1 too. and she was complaining the same thing too. lol. we sat till Eski close then wanted to chill out some more so we found some place to sit and eat. but by then, chui yee and dom had to leave as they had something on individually later in the day.

the time now was 2am.

we went to Crystal Jade to eat, but the food there was nearly finished. so we decide to take a cab to geylang to eat. but as the taxi passed by town, we saw this hawker centre still open so we headed off down there to eat. yum yum! elly and i shared kangkong, cockles and la-la together. bleahs. and after that i was seriously too full to move or rather i cant move at all. lol. then we walked around an otherwise deserted town for a while, sat and talk kok then headed off home.

the time then was 5am. :))

Saturday & Sunday

didnt do much as i decide to stay home and rest and save $$$. spent alot over the past 2 days. grrrr, need to start saving already.

hell, i am even bookin in soon and with this book in it marks the start of my infantry section training, which means lots of outfield. hate it but wat to do, i jus have to do it. :(( sucks but ya. no point complaining. hope this phase would go over soon and after that it is preperation for National Day which means even more weekends burn.

It's MY Day!!!

yeah. and it's purely coincidental that i am havin block leave during this period. so that means i can celebrate the end of trade's course and my birthday together. haha got 2 days of block leave before i start on my infantry phase training. and yeah. hate being outfield.....

haha... wat an interesting birthday i had today. got a nice "present" from my platoon mates. a song from them too. and birthday wishes from unexpected ppl. hmmm. am touched. :)) esp michy. she started my day and she ended my day for me.

oooh. and yes. going to enjoy myself throughly these block leave. haha. starting tmr, when i go yumcha with my plt mates early in the morning, followed by a movie.

brand new year, brand new start.

went out with dom today. and we caught 200 pounds beauty. quite an interesting and nice show to catch. dun mind recommending you to catch it if u have the time :)) after that we headed for shopping and we practically walked the whole of orchard. jus window shoppin. haha. and i am proud to announce that my list of things that i wanna get is complete. wheeeeeee. wells, and town was rather quiet today. think it's due to the mid year exams. that y there is a shortage of people walking ard in town.

top on my list is W850i. wanna go get it already. next week perhaps. then the other items would slowly slowly follow.

ya. feel like be a little reflective here today. been a very awaful week for me whereby i learn several lessons......the hard way......though it did cause me certain heartbreak and a fair amount of anger (nvr been angry in a long while, irritated yes, angry no) anyways i was kinda expectin it too. don't think i was ever wrong with my analyst. but i guess, the flame jus died out. hmmm. but i am really glad with the people ard me tat jus gave me support....my plt mates....my frenz.....

once again for the upteem time this week, i am thrown with the question as to wat type of gers i like. well, personally i prefer gals that can hold a conversation with me aka talking cock, any types and every types. dont ever talk serious stuffs with me. i can never hold such a conversation for long before getting bored about it. haha. i prefer conversations tat can revolved around everything. having a gf that can talk and put a grin on my face and a smile in my heart is much better than a touchy feely one. and there are only a few that can really fill this bill. of coz i am not going to name them. but ya. there is 1 particularlly that stands out from the rest. haha. but it's kinda late and there is still much that i wanna write but am too lazy. shall keep it for next week when i have my block leave.

anyways, big day next week and coincidentally it coincides with my leave. so ya. of coz i am happy. guess friday would be going out with the guys and elly. PUBBING not CLUBBIN mind you. haha somewhere in Holland V with live band for company. whoopieeee.

SpiderMan 3 opens today and yes, i have jus caught it. rather nice i must say. though it's quite touching and more like a love story between Mary Jane and Peter Parker.

book out yesterday night and was suppose to go to look for Poh Ru at her hse. but due to some stupid reason cooked up by my simply lovely company-Glory. we ended up bookin out super late again and we are expected to book back in again tonight. no comments abt them jus that i think that this is f*** up. yeah. and their actions normally leave us exasperated and frustrated. jus like wat we were told when we first came. "Wrong Company. Wrong Platoon" everything about them is wrong. even NCC seem more efficent then them. i think ncc clts and specs can do a better job than my coy's. yeah. more i talk about it more i would get irritated. expectin a super late book out again this friday due to some "reasons" and an super book in on sat to "prepare" for live shooting, though we jus clean the guns yesterday.

well, matter of time before realisation sets in and it really hit me hard on the head. haha. i dont feel sad which i amazing. rather i feel anger towards it.

hope this friday not too late book out. going to try out botak jones with poh ru? o.O hopefully. bleahs.

big day comin up next week :)) and i would be on navigation exercise. how nice.
