HASH(0x88c94d8)
Normal- Just normal, simply yourself. You are like
a mixture of all results. Funny when your
girlfriend needs cheering up, caring when
needed, sort of rude when you're pissed, a
little bit macho when you brag about something, etc...
P.S: Dont change, your girlfriend loves you the
way you are ^-^

What kind of boyfriend are you? (for guys! with pics!^0^)

Youngest
Youngest Child...

Strengths: You're charming, laid-back,
entertaining, and funny-the life of the party,
whether you're actually AT a party or in class!
So you don't have much trouble getting noticed
buy the opposite sex. Plus, you're great at
reading people and working with others.

Weaknesses: You crave attention-so much so that you
sometimes steal the spotlight (whether you
realize it or not). Being a free spirit, you
can come off as a flaky (like when you forget
about a date to hang out with your friends) or
impatient (like when you can't sit still
through boring family parties).

You're ideal match: You might think an
overachieveing oldest or only child would be
too serious for you, but they're actually your
best bet. Pairing up with another baby of the
family could be too chaotic. With a firstborn
(or a middle born who's like one), you'll show
them a good time and they'll take care of you
so you don't party yourself into the ground!

What's Your Perfect Match?

Ups & Downs

      Happy... disappointed... sad... touched... great... poor... anxiety... stressed... These were just few words to describe how i felt all these while... many things happened... happy moments and, of course, the unwanted disappointing moments...

      After meeting old friends over Siang's BBQ, i felt so good... i always love to hang out with them... But... Disappointment soon arrived... Feng's appearance was rather unexpected... and her needs for cash is more unexpected... but still i lent her the amount (not small to me)... When i am still pondering about this matter... Jian Xin urge me to get a shirt since he is getting one and i do show interest in getting one... (those short-sleeves) Although i am rather happy and excited in getting one... which suited me quite well... our relationship with Kwang Rong had become worse... No matter how a person is... i still feel sad for making a friendship shaky...

      Last Saturday, i went out with Jiemin, Eddie, Joseph, Wee Teck, Jonathan, Guan Ming, PC 2LT Hong & Sgt Terence... i was quite happy that Eddie managed to invite Hong & Terence along... Its wasn't a big party going on... just a simple steamboat dinner at Marina Bay... We chat along and watched 'Taxi' after most of us wanted to watched the show, anyway... its a very nice show... Its been weeks since i last saw them... Miss all those good old days... spent with them... No matter how hard the training is... we simply ENDURED... IMPROVED along the way... and most of us, EXCEL... Took one photos but unfortunately, Jiemin & Terence left earlier... so they were not in the picture...

      On Mon, we had SUM EX (Summary Exercise)... FUN!!! but tiring... learnt quite alot... not very happy with my day performance... but as for night, i think i do quite well in helping other detachments... But the practical test + a little bit of theory stressed me up... As it was held on THURS & FRI... while my guard duty falls on WED night... so wasn't in my tip-top condition... and on FRI's test... which is today, i somehow mentally blocked on my Theory for SSD & mixed up some equipment test between CNRI & MUX... was very disappointed... luckily, managed to bounce back in the last segment, SSD practical....

     Hence it was rather 2 weeks of ups & down... and my SI course is coming to an end... will get posting results on MON... which i will also be having a very difficult theory test on the same day... heard many unexpected questions will pop out... Just hope for the best lor... haha...

Endless Road...

     Its rather unbelievable... On Sat, i am performing my guard duties at my campsite... As a sentry, i stood there rather alone as i never talk to the 2IC when i was guarding the camp. At one point of time, even the 2IC was resting... and i was there all alone... Its a two hour shift... So in the beginning, i was thinking about the designs for my new blog, logo etc... All the designing stuff... but as the time passed by, i stopped drawing and begin to think back about my life...

      I had always felt that there was one invisible wall preventing me to move towards my ambition, my goals... a wall that i am rather helpless with... I am not living in a life that i wanted to live in... No... i am not feeling depressed... neither was i feeling down... i was simply thinking about what was happening in the recent years... *smile* i was rather useless, isn't it? Thinking about the past, thinking about the friendship i lost... And why am i thinking about the friendship that i would never get back? or should i say, back to how it used to be...

      At times, i would still be sad and regretted in losing friendships... e.g. Feng & Weiliang... Its all because of my character, things become this state... Everything could have been good and nothing could have happened... *laugh* What's the point of telling myself all these when i know that its easier to be said than done... And soon... my shift ended... and i went to take a rest...

      What was rather surprising was that Feng attended Siang's birthday... I was actually thinking about the possibility but in the end telling myself, "why am i always think that things would happen?"... As there are many times, i hoped and wished... but was only disappointed in return... But this time round, she was... finally... there... with a good news too... she was now with a boyfriend... was rather happy for her... No matter what, we used to be close friends... and she used to be my god-daughter... *laugh...

     I still can remember, we normally never chat much during gathering... after things happened... but last night managed to chat a little.. and i was pleased that i was able to face her... Rather contented with how things are going... Somehow i could relate myself with JJ's Endless Road... A song i was addicted to since i first heard of it... The music soothed my feelings and i think its a song that described my feelings now... *laugh*

The Beaten Path

A:

You take the Beaten Path. After all, that's what it's there for right? You are content with the options already laid out for you definitely of the "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." frame of mind. You tend to be a follower rather than a leader, but that's fine because all good leaders must first be good followers. You tend to follow the crowds living life the tried and true way, often letting others make the decisions.Just don't forget you have a mind too. Never be afraid to voice your ideas or opinions, no matter how ridiculous others may think they are. This beaten path is your comfort zone, you want and deserve company on your travels trough life as you are probably a very friendly and kind individual, always putting the needs of others before your own. That's an excellent and all too rare quality.Never lose it. But being surrounded isn't always the best.

People tend to try and take charge and advantage of the fact and if you aren't careful, it'll be your life that's been taken over. Venture away from your well-traveled road and find your own away. Head down that road less-traveled and see what's there because though the path you're on may have been done before, that doesn't necessarily make it the right one for you. Step out of your comfort zone and take some risks you wouldn't normally take, make mistakes, and make some time for just you. Indulge and be a little selfish. You'll come out all the better for it.

Tiring But Interesting...

     TCS EXE, follow up with an CNRI Practical the following day... These two days was rather fulfilling for me... Not only did i enjoyed myself... even its tired... its interesting... only the waiting was the most tiring part... The hands-on was very fun... we get to touch the equipment u need to set up the TCS... in TCS EXE...

      Its very fun... my detailed/detachment worked very well... surprisingly... Especially the day time... we know what we should do and we trust each other in our job... we set up in a very short time... we even beat 2 detachment which was supposed to be the first two to finish due to the complexity of our type of detachment... We impressed our S/SGT Dean... she said she was pretty impress... no mistake... nothing... totally steady bom beep beep... haha... in the end we had lots of resting time...

      The night time was rather disappointing... We started off well and we are the first few to set up.. but due to equipment's failure... we need to redo the whole set up... becoming the last few to set up and, of course, tore down also...

      CNRI is a totally different topic altogether... yes... its still within the TCS... but its more of the linkage and system... not much of setting up antenna etc... So it was much more less tiring mending the system...

     I was made the Platoon IC today... Supposed to be on Mon, but due to some changes... i was changed to today. As the discipline and marching wasn't up to standard, i tried to give command slightly louder, firm-er and try to control the platoon. They were rather cooperative as in to some extend... Maybe still not to the standard... but improving a little... Hope that i can change them a little... I am quite surprised that i never give wrong command on my first day of work... haha... BMTC, i was pretty jialat... so i guess, i have grown up yet again... c",)

Diagnosis

Type B: 25% Moody

It is not easy that you would be out of control with your temper. Even if Something makes you mad or sad, as long as it is not too far out of your limit, you can control yourself. However, once your limit is crossed, you might explode and forget who you are. You have strong self control.

From another angle, you only allow your true self come out in front of a few selective people; which means you might get into a fight with a loved one or close friend more often because of this personality.

Updates

     So much to say... so little space to have... this three weeks, many things had happened... but notable ones? Not really... But all because of my cpu down for three weeks... i had lots of time to think of what i have been through... All these years... to many, they might say... its nothing new to Ashton... but to me.. every recap is always new...

      I shalln't ellaborate more as i will keep it till the end of 2004 then i will post it... haha.. its something pretty emotional... From a bubbly plump little boy to a rather quiet and mature young man... the evolution took a lot of process and many people along the way helped me to get to where i really am and who i really are...

      The way i behaves... the way i present myself... my style doctors... the confidence i adopt along the way... i get out of the nutshell and view this wonderful world with more expectation... but of course... whenever there is expectation... there is disappointment... so i guess... i have a fair share of disappointment as well...

      Since SI did not have exercise... i adopt weekend exercise like swimming, jogging and badminton last few weeks... its does not have much impact due to the fact that the duration of each exercise apart from badminton was not long enough... hence i will increase the workload and the time... maybe 2 rounds instead of 1 around my neighbourhood... 70++ sit ups instead of just 50 and 20 laps instead of just 5-10 laps of pool... hope it will works... or else... hmm... all the hardwork will gone into waste again... haha...

     Academic-wise... not too bad lar... VP get 40+ out of 50 (no exact score given), 2 E-Exams : IWE = 72%, ANT = 60+% (never study)... haha... practical test also get praised by instructor with 0 mistake at Vehicle segment... so happy... But i am slacking these days... so need to buck up a little... if not might not even get good results... not to say what best trainee... hmm.. time for another run... c",)
