not Berrynice

      Booked out of camp today and had dinner at McDonald in Jurong Point... Tried out their new stuff... Tempura Chicken Burger & Berrynice Crunchy Yoghurt... but end up rather disappointed... Their burger was soso... nothing special... as i think the sauce was a little stingy... while the yoghurt was not as nice as those sold in Supermarket... maybe it just taste a little more fresh? with fruits like frozen strawberry... hmm... i would never eat Mac's Yoghurt again...

      UIP wasn't tough this week... i should say that it wasn't as bad as i had thought... Yes, some parts of me are tired or almost worn out... but its still managable... like the running made me tired but didn't kill me... i could still run even if we had running in a few consecutives day... Yesterday, i took the so-called IPPT Trial... I managed to do 6 half-f**k standard chin ups... which is an improvement over my BMT's 5... and consider that its the FIRST IPPT since last September...

      Eventually i still failed due to running... haha... Surprise? Alot people are... not familiar with the route and as usual, i ran last few in my platoon... as i nag all the way to the finishing line... haha... i think people like Kok Hong, Sean, Teck Hui or even John would hate me... haha... i didn't expect to pass as i see no point in passing this test... since its just a trial... i might as well use it to help others to train...

      On the same day, i volunteered to be the platoon IC... Surprise again? Why would i volunteered? i had to in fact... with no one volunteering while 2LT Wu was asking for a new IC... A lot of SGTs were around too... all looking angry over some matters... So i had volunteered... Of course, i wasn't that good myself... had some hiccups... but i keep trying to change... with comments from platoon mates... i will continue to improve till the next IC was chosen...

      Now resting myself... Unsure why i suddenly lose my voice when i woke up... luckily still managed to give commands... Hope i never tarnish my NPCC & BMTC-Jaguar's reputations...

great old times

      Yesterday, i went beach rd to buy some essential 8 packs' items with a group of people... Terence, LeeChang, ChangCai, KokHong, TeckHui, Cannon and met Kelvin, Niklas & Jin there... oh ya... and Siang too... After the shopping... 5 of us walked to Funan IT Mall via Bugis... A pretty long walk with the hot Sun hanging in the sky... but its ok... i love sun... haha...

      While sticking the ziploc bags... with a layer of BIG scotch tape... i noticed that i forgotten to get for JiuHsian a pack of small-size ziploc... later will go to Hougang and take a look... Let's hope i could find some there... A little lost in terms on the size of ziploc to use since i tried to use 2LT Tang's standard...

      At night, met up with my polymates... consisting Jocelyn, Jeremy, Jun Hao & Wen, Jian Long & Jenson... hey... the J-team... 6 of them... with Aris doing his duty... i was still quite unsure whether meeting them is a good idea... i do miss them and wanna catch up with them... but still... whether i would be comfortable there... since we long time never met up... my uneasiness was soon proven unnecessary.... we had a nice chat... looking at the past, the present and a little future...

      Its heart-warming to be there... and you soon felt so at home... with all those familiar smiles, joker & their jokes... haha... time flies... and we all grown up compared to first time when we were in the same class... haha... Had a great time together in Mr Bean's Cafe @ ParkLane... but their attitude & service was atrocious and unforgiveable... Unlikely to go there again...

      After the chat, Jocelyn went to her boyfriend's table... while the rest of us, in wee hours, went to play Billard & Pool @ FarEast... The twins drove their dad's car, Jenson driving his Bro's while Jeremy driving his scramble (wonder if i spell correctly)... All of them had license... even Jian Long has it... I am the only one who never get a civilian license... Hmm... maybe after my NS life...

Emerald

! You are most like An Emerald !
Caring, giving and very emotional. You're the person
people turn to with a problem. You worry about everybody,
and genuinely want to help - a little too much sometimes.
As an emerald, you tend to take a more backseat to
the other gems, but your inner beauty soon captivates those
who take the time to get to know you.
Congratulations ...
You're the selfless gem everybody needs as a friend.

March

      UIP finally began on Thursday after much delay... largely due to the awaiting of the specialists... Before they came, we were invovled in all different kinds of sai gang, 'shit job' in english... Once they were here, the UIP training truly begun...

      Tee Rong, my Jaguar platoon-mates was in the specs... haha.. was pretty happy to see him again... last met him during the Genting Trip... That was like 5-6 months ago... nice seeing him... and heard that he was 2nd Bayonet... which means 3rd in the platoon... like John, Best Trainee... They did Jaguar Platoon 2 proud... unlike me... haha... struggling...

      Some thought i was one of the better one in my current CSO platoon... but... i was struggling while the rest are relaxed there... So when it came to the selection on which Node to be in... i was pretty afraid of not getting what i want... and who i wanted to be with... worst still, i had not even gone to any of the 2 interviews...

      The physical training is tough but still managable... but just feeling tired and disappointed with the lack of discipline in my bunk... not to say some of my platoon mates... The bunk i am in now, was such a big different from J02S04... i totally miss them... yes, they slack sometimes... but they cooperate and perform their duties to, at least, meet the requirement of BMT... I have no problem being their Section IC... as for this bunk... i am still pondering what i am going to do...

      Feeling slightly better after chatting to DingZe in the MRT and with Jack around during our dinner at Jurong Point... But still more weeks to come... and the D-Day of my NS lifespan... will be arriving soon...

FOOD sensation

      JB's trip was cancelled due to 2LT Tang proposed visit to Edwin's place... but in the end... he never turned up the whole day... Then we were deciding where to go in the late evening... A suggestion poped up...

      Dinner Buffet... a medium priced place... and the answer to that suggestions? Oriental-styled Buffet @ Furama Hotel, Chinatown... Food was not bad... especially their deserts... nice... and the DURIANS!!! haha.. fattening... but temptations... its been a long time since i last ate durians... doesn't matters if it was best durians.. but it IS durians.. haha... The atmosphere was pretty conducive... had alot of food there... went in with a belly... came out with a BLOATED belly... haha.. oOops... Enjoyment, i must say, apart from the poster of the music sensation, comprising of 3 aunties-wannabe... its a disastrous poster...

      Night activity? ya... KTV again... haha... This time round... TeckHui, Weiliang, LeeChang & Edwin went to PartyWorld @ Chinatown... With TeckHui's wackiness, despite his back pain... we became very active... very high haha... But soon get tired of course... but pretty fun... Apart from LeeChang being forced to sing... Edwin's wide selection of songs... shocked us... haha.. He has a higher pitch of voice over the rest... not bad indeed...

      Went swimming in the morning where i saw a few not so normal young adults in the shower... Never get to see them swim but im sure they did enjoyed themselves... haha... The caretaker keep looking at me... don't know why... haha... After the swim, met up with LeeChang @ Lavender to get some army stuff... hmm... hell will begins tomorrow... oh no... its tonight...

enjoyable moment

      It was an enjoyable day for me... KTV @ PartyWorld, Orchard... in the afternoon... before heading down AngMoKio for House-warming...

Jack & Ashton      Sean, Dingze, JianXin, Jack, ah-Jin & Xiao Ming made up the number of people attended the KTV session... Kwang Rong last minute not joining us... In the beginning, i was rather disappointed and mood was dampened as all of us were late... It took us around 2h before everyone managed to gather... But thankfully, it wasn't that bad... Its the first time having an outing with Sean, Jin & ming... Had lots of fun... one of the most enjoyable time these days... Sean had a great voice too... This time round, even some rock songs were sang... haha... Too bad couldn't join them for dinner... wanted to stay on... but i had another activity le... i did use ah-jin's hp to snap a few shots... with Sean, Ming & Jin....

      At Hock Hua's place... a beautiful condo... either inside or outside... it gave me a relaxed feeling... Very, very nice indeed... saw alot of ex-collegues there... And took a few photos with our generation's ex-NTUC cashier... It also marks my first time taking a picture with Weiliang, Hock Hua, Vivian and SuHui... Vivian is still as wacky as before... After the house warming.... Weiliang, Xinyi, Liyan, Yuyan & i went to MOS Burger @ AMK to chat... gossip about the past... pretty short... but definitely sweet... oh ya... thanks to weiliang... my pocket did not have a hole... haha... Yuyan forced him to treat... but surprisingly, he was ok with it...

      In short... i spent my day rather happily... and took quite some photos... If i ever get the chance... i will post it here...

movin' on

      Yesterday marked the last day of MSET... and soon the luxury we had in Sembawang will be taken away... replaced by tough trainings... rigorous exercises... Its the 'from heaven to hell' feeling... being brought back to earth...

      It was rather boring without gb last night... but yet, i felt so much more comfortable... relaxed... watching American Idol 4's result show while chatting on PC... Playing Daidee... the game where JianXin keep kana dc... haha... even scolded him... Mood slightly lightens... especially deciding to go KTV today...

      We also uncovered one new talent... Lovynn, a 17 year old singer... her voice was unique especially in the song Zhui Hou Yi Ci... Recommended by Ah jin... Can be found on ChangeTheWorldNow.com...Emotionally great...

      Still got HockHua's house warming to attend tonight.. wonder who will be there...
