yes. i'm at home. not in camp. these few days had being quite relaxing. nothing much for the officers to conduct as the platoon sergeants have take over the real guardsmen trainings (we're just green berets).
i'll really miss 1gds. the men. the specs. the ps. and our rawdy oc.
though the men aren't as educated as the bmtc boys, they are still obedient to a certain degree, and their attitude to teamwork surpassed the bmtc boys. i somehow like these mono boys. i can be a fucking vulgarian when talking to them. the specs n ps are always ready to lend a helping hand. not like those on the sunny island who will dissappear into their bunks. rawdy oc is iceman. cool as it sounds. i've yet to see him flare up. not even a slight spark.
yesterday was supposed to be a games session for the company. thanks to the rain, the soccer boy end up playing monkey. the basketball boys end up having "indoor games" (it's not a game dudes!) my 2 fellow pcs, gc and gerald the cheng, amd me, ended up playing a ball that i never touch in my 22 years: sepaktakraw. we didn't know the rules, not even have the skill. so we just tried to juggle the ball like playing chapteh. kind of got the hand of it. but still i suck at juggling with my feet. nonetheless, it's fun.
this morning just had a fast march. my first time after so many months since i last did a fast march in ocs. i remember during my very first fast march, i got a serious abrasion. in the groin and asshole. i can only think of pain. when i shower, the first few drops of water that trickle down to the wound drive a shocking stinging sensation to my whole body, turning my legs jelly and i curled into a ball uncontrollably. that's my bad experience. today, i walked 8km without stop in 72mins. no abrasion! whoa! was happy to see that almost all the men complated it. it seems like chicken feat to them. true to their name, elite guards.
went home with gerald the cheng. he was in a hurry to get home. so i took a free taxi ride from him to seng kang and transfer 965. the wait for 965 was terrible. it almost took forever for the bus to arrive.
so here i am now, in front of the screen. with sunnymonk, honey, and kenny's msn windows popping out every now n then. later going for a run with sunnymonk. i'm gonna train him like a dog for his ippt next week. just joking. how can he be a dog? he's a seal. ooh ooh ooh~ ;p
it's the battallion games day tommorrow. i'm the bdo. i'm running for the chain of command relay too. split me. hope there's no accidents and allow me to finish my last duty at 1gds with a peaceful spirit.

finished my atp range last night and managed to get back to bedok camp ard 0000 hrs. so for my list of things to clear for ord, i've clear ippt and range, think i'm just left with ffi.
army stuff aside (they're just plain boring), i reached home at 1300 today and found 2 letters on my table. one of which is the progress package from the government, i'm entitled to $700 inclusive of the nsf portion. the other letter was 'on government service'. turning it ard, i see a stamp of 'ministry of sound'... oh, i was my illusion. it's ministry of education. yes. moe! woah! it's the letter i've been waiting for. so i just tear it open like i always did to other letters. and as what i've expected it to be, i'm shortlisted for interview. other than my application as a p.e. teacher, i'm being considered to teach chinese. what a joke. though i got a1 for my o's, i still don't see myself as a chinese teacher, chanting away the 300 poems of the tang dynasty.
i think this post is quiote boring, because i'm getting late to meet damian for a run. i'm not thinking to write. got to go.
it's boring for me to write in proper english. fuck:)

Qinhao, you're a Chihuahua!
No bones about it, you're an energetic, devoted Chihuahua. For your breed, size definitely doesn't matter. After all, sometimes the best things (diamonds, car keys, Godiva truffles) come in small packages. Honest and straightforward, you're never afraid to speak up for what you believe in, especially if it's a cause near and dear to your heart. Having such a passionate personality can come with a few drawbacks, though. You can be moody at times, and people often find it hard to live up to your high standards. But once you make a friend, it's for life. Saucy and intense, your energy and unfailing loyalty make you a great companion. Woof!

______________________
Qinhao, your true color is Red!
Your color is red, the color of racy sportscars, blushing cheeks, and luscious roses. Red symbolizes passion, romance, and love. So, since you're ruled by red, you probably trust your feelings more than your brain and tend to act spontaneously. If you see something you want, you go for it without thinking twice — impulsive is your middle name. You don't wait around for people to make decisions, either; you dive right in. Quite the romantic, you pay close attention to your emotions. In fact, if your heart isn't in what you're doing, you won't be satisfied. Of course, even when you do pour all your energy into the projects you tackle, your impetuous nature means your passions can shift as frequently as the wind. That's why some reds have trouble with commitment. Our advice? Next time you're feeling fickle, think before you act, if possible. You might be surprised at the results. Overall, though, it's great to be red. No one lives life more completely than you do.

yeah, i know it's sunday today, and i'm doing duty now! and i'm going to do another 2 weekend duties! 1st april & 31 april (i'll be back in bmtc by then). though i booked in on a sunday morning, i felt satisfied that my saurday was well spent.
went to sentosa... again!? yeah baby... island life i love it! time for some serious volleyball again! along wif sunnymonk & jj, we formed a team of three. we were the 'beatables'. the regulars at sunset bay usually played with teams of 4, we had only 3 men. we played the first match wif my secondary sch friend's team (i met wenhao there). game of 3 sets, lost. then came another team of 2 guys + 1 lady = lost. the last game we had an import from the other team. so at last a 4 on 4, lost. fantastic! lost every game. but we did improve. jj was picking it up and was serious in correcting his mistakes, good job dude!
saw some professional action in a 2 on 2 game. powerful jump serves and deadly spikes! cool... and some really good team work among a group of boys, seemed like school eam players. nice one there...
now my back is 2 toned. tanned, and burnt. shedding too... like a monster shedding it's skin. decided to get geared up with shades, shorts and singlets for the games. and we need a team of 4 players, mixed gender, to enter a competition. so any female players you brothers out there can recommend? of coz i can consider my honey... he he.
time to sleep now, still have to wake up early to open up the armskotes in the morning. good night singapore. by the way did you guys spot the proper english used in this entry. i've tried though, but it's not prfect yet. practicing for my career as a teacher, though i'm not guranteed to get accepted. at least i've passed my physical proficiency test with a score of 10.
spike them fast.
spike them hard.
ready to spike!

went down to sim lim square to look for hardware for damian's new comp. this is e first time i got to see pple buy computer parts n put them together. all e while i really dunno wat's inside a cpu. wat's a processor, a motherboard, a graphic card, a ram card, power supply... a lesson indeed.
then came my 2nd dose of unhealthy intake: katong laksa. tt's not e end... we got back to yishun n bought ramly's burger at e pasar malam. there goes my 3rd dose: ramly's chicken burger & goreng pisang. dun worry, i wun get fat. it's juz in e genes... muahahaha.
went to damian's place n see yh operate on e cpu. i knew nuts bout e comp, so contributed as a lights man, holding e torchlight shining on e computer parts. another lesson there...
my sunburnt skin was making me uncomfortable... so went to damian's aircon room to koonz~ until e gang, including dharman who came later, came into e room to play ps2 grand theft auto. i woke up to watch... stoopid game. but fun sia... we got bored of e mission, then decided to go ard killing pple, mess wif e police, tried in vain to hook up girls, went diving n see turtle n fish. hilarious seeing dharman n jj play... damn lame.
and then home finally... it was like school holiday for e pass week lor... tml gotta book in liaoz~ like going back to sch fr holidays. do u feel mi...? e siansation is here... ...
-redfox & drunkard lived again-
went to sento sa wif yh... yeah... 2 of us.. onli... not gay ok... met up wif some of my ocs frenz too (j j, johnnie, auggie, kenneth) played volleyball... wif some experts... we amatures juz lost all e matches. but actually got e coordination there, juz got tt urge to spike. dunno how to spike properly still wanna spike... haiz... youngsters lah... but we can make it one ok? we (auggie, kenneth, yh & me) need more practice. gotta brush up our skills n try to take part in this yr's competition... hee.
really quite fun, long time nv had such fun at sentosa liaoz. gat to roll on e sand, dive to get balls... i mean the volleyball. shiok shiok... action packed day!!! gonna haf more of such games in future...
sun, sand, sea... spike!
at nite went took watch my sis's performance at chong pang c.c.. was like a cultural nite wif wushu perfomance n chinese dance by kids... my sis n some exponents were performing some wushu routines. long time nv see wushu actions liao... missed those days when i performed wif sp wushu club for so many places. good traditional standards.
then there was a meet up wif e area 2 ci(s) at np starbucks (rhumba frappachino is off the menu, how sad), felt so old... so many newbies. then when e newbies left, tt's when e old birds haf fun... talking cock... juz cock. again... long time nv gather like tt to talk liaoz...

juz came back fr my duty in camp... we're supposed to be on leave man. 1 off day will b claimed next week... muahahaha...
gd thing was there's no one in camp n there wun b any cases of accidents, means no report to write... phew! so actualli quite slack lah. but received bad news in the evening... oc wants officers to b back at 1600 today... was damn low lah. morning book out, late afternoon gotta go back... 1 x sian lor...
now stuck dunno wat to do...
maybe go for swim... in this hot sunny weather...
no one eat lunch wif mi...
msg damian e peh... haha...
while waiting for his reply, gotta write something lah...
went to raffles design institute wif sunnymonk (yh) n dam'e'peh on wed. yh was enquiring bout 2 courses, visual comm and multimedia design. i'm oso interested in visual comm, so sat down to listen, n dam'e'peh oso sat in to listen wif no intent to study any of these. the friendly... erm... dunno lecturer or administrator, brought us to the visual comm level to look ard. dun feel like a campus as compared to nie... i somehow like to b in nie... sports is one of those things tt interest mi... realli hope i can get e intervies at moe n get accepted. though designing is another field i wish to explore, it's a risky decision. either u make it or break it, and i'll haf to start fr diploma again. doesn't take very long to get the degree at rdi (3 yrs fr dip to deg), but e career path wun b as clear as being a teacher. feel so insecure when u dunno where u'd end up after ur ns. no matter which path is it, i'll still start all over again...
hmmm... no reply fr damian e peh... maybe he still sleeping ba... shall go for a swim after my lunch. no strenous activity for 1 hr after lunch. gotta go haf my lunch NOW dudes...

hey, twas yesterday dudez!!! though i'll haf moi party tonight. yesterday got myself my birthday gift...
went down to the it show at 1100 hrs, it's not eve opened yet, it open it's doors at 1200 hrs. so still managed to b the first few hundreds to be there, thus dun haf to squeeze my way through the booths. along wif me were evil jj n damian the peh. my objective was clear: get a fucking camera (the word fucking is used as an adjective here to emphasize the fucking clear objective). thus all brands were filter off my sight, except for cannon, panasonic, nikon, olympus, fujifilm, casio. firstly, i grabbed brochures. then filter again, those prices above 500 bucks were again out of my system. n i easily had 2 finalists. cannon n nikon. cannon was cheaper (369), but it's bulky man. so obviously i went for nikon (399). n i was oso attracted by the aestetics, i dun mean the promoters but e camera itself ok... this nikon coolpix l3 is available in blue, white n silver. white was sold to mi in the end, along wif 2 x 512mb sd cards, 1 x tripod, 1 x camera case... happy!
went to the long awaited physical proficiency test at nie. tot it wasn't a popular choice to be a pe teacher, but i was wrong! there were 100 + pple taking e test. like ns man taking ippt sia~ i feel tt i fare quite well in the test, but i sucked at the possession game. i juz got no fucking ball sense, juz tried to run ard to look busy... haha. tink i excel in the gymnastics section. not everyone could do a front roll, back roll, a balance act with 1 leg stuck out behind u, n a cartwheel. all thanks to my wushu trainings... ;) well, but i could onli noe the results in 2 weeks time, meanwhile gotta pray tt i get shortlist for e interview at moe... may my luck b wif me...
today met up wif candice, qiu mei, qinlei, xinying, n shui n jing wen for lunch @ swensen's. my meal was paid for... how touched, n got 2 x flesh imp t shirts for my b'day gift, thanks to u guys again. (though i need to get the sizes changed, but i still like'em)
this point of time, i'm looking forward to my party later. my yishun kakis will b there. n some of my ocs buddies like yixian n albert... n i do hope meng wee, my first buddy, can b there too. of course adel the retro siao will b there wif her bf n frenz. n last but not least, my dear honey, long time nv club wif u le... hehe. may it b a wonderful nite out!!!

at last, i've went through my first batch of bmt recruits, but sad to say i do not haf a platoon. though wif no platoon there is less things to worry about, but there is juz this little lack in sense of belonging. tink i'm gonna b more slack during their advance infantry training (ait) phase.
got my new shoes 2 days ago. felt really different wearing a pairs of acsics trainers. i can feel the arch support compared to my other shoes. it gives me the motivation to run longer distances. i'm gonna be a running freak if there is really less work in ait.
i'm getting excited wif the ppt i'm taking tml, n my party at dbl o on sat. hope i could get my interview for moe too.
alright, tt's all for now, gonna go back to camp lata to cover safety for the regulars' soc run...

hey, it's a friday afternoon n i'm home... weird isn't it??? coz supposed to haf hand grenade live throw today, but due to some clashes, it's being shifted to sunday, means i'm booking in tml nite... no loss no gain lah.
yesterday went to eat cafe cartel wif honey at marina square (ms), n watched final destination 3 after our dinner. cafe cartel's our favourite restuarant, cheap n nice, plus free flow bread... muahahaha. tink ms has become a 1 stop shopping paradise. it's got food, fashion, household, cinema, yada yada... it's e place to go when u haf no idea where to go man. u can chill there, juz walk ard n see young chics, go haf a retail therapy, or juz get away fr the sun to a real cool zone.
dinal destination 3's another gross show, potraying various creative ways to die tragically... like: flying off roller coaster n banging onto steel structures before landing with a loud thud, getting cooked n burnt naked in a tanning machine, having nails shot trhough ur face frome e back of ur head by a nail gun, crushed n sliced by a super tall signboard tt falls precisely onto u.
i booked in after our date, ready for today's ippt, for my $200!!!
the test started at ard 0630, i was quite kan cheong e nite before ah, pressure n pride... then here r my results: 58, 243cm, 14, 9.6s, 9.12min... those who noe will noe wat's for wat station lah... hor... n yes, i got my $200... muahahaha!
had an early lunch at simpang bedok. transport fr courtesy of ssg rama (csm)... haha. gerald (pc1), ghim chuan (pc2) n mi ordered 1 milo dinosaur each... thick thick one... shiok ah! all of us had pratas, different flavas. i had the best banana prata i ever ate... good prata place: simpang bedok.
then... here i am... killing time here... writing something for u to kill ur time too.
juz learnt to put up pics... muahahaha

hey, was planning to have an entry last sunday, coz i cant wait to break a good news to those who care to read. i finally got a letter fr nie, responding to my application for the physical proficiency test (ppt). juz when i tot they had missed out my application, the letter appeared on my table. wat a surprise.
went for night's out on tues night, alone. wat!? alone? u muz b tinking. yes, alone. pisces(s) can go out alone. in fact we like tt at times. it doesn't mean we've got some problems n wanna b alone. we juz dun mind being alone n love to be alone sometimes. am i right damian? haha...
so where did i go alone? intended to go kinokuniya to look for a book, i dunno wat book, but juz a book tt'll call for mi in tt gigantic book store. but i end up in citylink mall's mph. coz it's already 2030hrs when i reach city hall. i dun wish to end up watching the kino staff close shop when i reach there, so decided to find an alternative in city hall.
i seldom read, (except magazines) especially novels. it's the 3rd time i'm seriously looking for a literature piece. first it was tuesdays with morrie, then it was the 5 people you meet in heaven. now i'm looking for something again. i walked ard the new arrivals section, none interest me. walked to the bestsellers aisle, a few interesting titles. like: the humming bird's daughter, the historian, i cant remember the rest... u noe wat, i actually look for the size of the book rather than the title. if e size is right, i'll pick it up an read it's synopsis... yes, i judge a book by it's size dudez~
i picked up this little book after a few small size books. the cover is red. it's small. soft cover. e title reads: the curious incident of the dog in the night-time. written all in small letters, like moi entries. now i judge the book by it's cover... i read the synopsis, sounds interesting, read the praises, good, and it says international bestseller, so i bought it. tt's mi dude, i dun need a good story, juz a book i can carry ard to keep mi company. it's impt tt it looks nice~
till now haven started reading yet... hahahaha. coz got newspapers to keep mi occupied in camp. n i've got an issue of ish, a magazine on design, archi, urban living sort of stuff.
last nite was asked to a fren's mlm company... haiz, y gotta brush wif mlm again? sat there n listened for hours, nothing triggers me. i dun mind wasting the time for my fren who wans to show mi something, but it ended at 12 plus, no bus le!!! wasted my money on cab fare... sianz~
btw, i'm here writing on a thursday afternoon coz i took off. for wat i take off? for today is my anniversary wif my gf. 5 yrs. so muz say :"happy 5th anniversary honey..."
k lah, tt's all for today, still got ippt tml... aim for tt $200... bi sheng!
