today was our match against sideliners aka SIM. which we lost to quite badly last time during ivp.
aiyah actually morning wanted to wake up early do stuff one. but aiyah last night reached home late, so today slept in again heheehe. woke up at like 1030am hahhah. then nothing much liao. breakfasted, dabbled online a bit. then i had to move off liao.
yup basically today's match won 13-10. aye we couldn've won by a lot more loh. our j2s totally thrashed them flat la. but we decided to let the j1s gain experience. so we threw them all in. that's where SIM got they're 10 points la. its not that the j1s are that bad, or that they played exceptionally bad today, its just that probably they were lost and like rather confused i guess. with no one reliable to lead them. the j3s played tgt with them, but us j3s are actually really abt the same level as them la. we're not as good as we're supposed to be. our progress is stunted by NS. nothing we can do really.
on a personal note, once again i thought i played badly. i dunno haha today v kan cheong. keep rushing things, keep screwing up. played handler for all my points which kinda sucked since my throws cmi. aiyah aiyah aiyah. need to improve more. :\
have to book in today somemore. sian la so depressing. back to that shitty old camp. lucky my dad offered to gimme a lift. else i'd have to leave home at 8pm. argh i want to get out of there. whine whine whine. ns sucks ns sucks ns sucks. i want back my civilian life.
that's why tmr i'll be going to the medical centre in camp to see the medic over there. like ns men always like to say. its time for action.
010609: ooc attempt number 1. because cider is the elixir of life
7.17pm
ytd was once again, spent with the band ppl. almost the few of us somemore. sean cheryl meijun rujun sheng heng me.
met them at 2.30pm. okay supposed timing to meet la. but hwachong being hwachong, we were like obviously late la. yea sheng heng had to miss the first few minutes of the movie.
yup watched aliens vs monsters 3D okay its just overrated la. like no plot nothing, lucky it was in 3D, else there really would be nothing to watch.
yeaaa and we couldn't get like one whole row of 6 seats. so we had to split up 3 x2. yea and since sheng heng was late, and sean cheryl and i umm wanted to sit tgt. we sorta made him sit beside mj and ru. hehhhh :)
anw yea quite retarded la bumped into marcus (tikopek) lokky and some of their friends there also. and after we told them how bad it was they STILL went to watch it. D:
yup then after the movie rujun had to book in liao for his gpmg shoot today. so yea he left, and it became like a flutes + sean outing. us, being bored ppl, decided to grant sean's desperate wish and go PRAWNING. at bishan.
mmm actually quite fun la. heh. at the start like sibei sian like that cause cannot catch anything. then the joker beside us catch prawn like once every 3 minutes. yea but at least we came prepared la. we brought cards :D and lotsa lotsa food :D okay not really a lot la. cause sean said we'd catch like a lot of prawns so can bbq the prawns for dinner. so didn't get a proper dinner, just got like chips and drinks.
sean all serious and focused on catching prawns. okay actually this is his act seh pose la. actually he was sitting cross legged and kinda like in an unglam matter. but whatever ahahhaha. the other 4 of us were playing cards and eat chips hahahhah slackerrrrrs.
mmm we actually caught our first prawn like after an hour of waiting la. and its literally CATCH. using sean's bare hands. seemed more reliable and fun than using the lousy old rod they rented. we were so like pathetic that the above mentioned joker beside us helped us catch one too. (: but aiyah he got super lot to spare la. after his time was up, he had like one big bag of prawns la. like go fish market like that can.
yea but the second hour got some sort of idea la. so we caught more prawns. using the dumb rod. or maybe its just cause they like refilled the pool with prawns. mm cheryl caught one DAMN big one. sheng heng caught one. i caught one right at the end. just before they came to kope back the rods. so Y.A.Y. everyone has a prawn each to eat for dinner ytd D: i knew we should've gotten a proper meal first. :S
yay the catch of the day :D cheryl REFUSED to pose with her prawn la.
but yea credit to sean la, its really quite exciting and fun when there's something on the line. the other 97% of the time, its just sian and wait and like look out for stray prawns near the edge to catch with sean's bare hands.
okay so after that we went to continue with the plan of bbq-ing our prawns. so we got a pit, used some charcoal leftover from the last user (how much charcoal do you need for 5 prawns?!) and did some bbq-ing.
okay we just threw the prawns there and went to raid meijun's phone ehehhehe. aiyah but also nothing much la. NO RUJUN PHOTOS AWWW. ): but got this damn damn old photo taken with the band ppl at island creamery.
probably early 2007 i think. j1 that time ma v free can play play after school. and i think its quite obvious. we all changed quite a bit. haiiii those were the days la. ns sucks to the max la.
ytd we once again brought up the random question. a) 2 years of NS, b) one year of A levels. one year on, i changed my mind. i'd rather shoot myself than go through what i've gone through, and what i'll be going through.
i'll take the one year of A levels. because cider is the elixir of life

3:38 AM (:
10.38am
on to the better things in life, like the great friends waiting outside my sad army life. (:
ytd was eat with your family day. which meant early book out. okay not so early but yea. 6pm bookout (which is rare in AI okay)
mmm from that ulu shit camp took me 2 hours to get home la. okay maybe just 1 and a half hours. yea reached home at 8plus. dumped my stuff and washed up, then my mum half forced me to eat a bit. so okay la eat with your family day. so ate a bit, then i went out (:
we uhhh went to meijun's concert met sean at city hall at abt 9.15pm then uhh we went to get her stuff. since she insisted she wanted our presents. SO THOUGHTFUL OKAY. WALAO. yea sean got her a $1.10 meiji yogurt, sct got more pay, so i got her some mickey mouse sweet toy thing. can't rmb how much exactly, but confirm more than $1.10 la.
ANYWAY. we reached quite on time. like 15 mins after the concert ended. lucky we never buy tickets la. we reached just in time to go up to the concert hall find her, and give her her stuff (with our heartfelt messages written down somemore) and GUESS WHAT. she took our presents opened the plastic bag (doubling up as a wrapper larr) took one look, and went EEEEEEEEEEEE AND THEN SHE FREAKING THREW THE BAG ONTO THE FLOOR LA. SO INSULTING CAN. best part was the $1.10 meiji yogurt burst and my cute cute mickey mouse had strawberry yogurt all over it. GREATLY APPRECIATED MEIJUN. >:(
anw meijun sold like the least tickets amongst the whole band, so she was supposed to go move instruments back to anderson there. quite loser, but yay! sean and jiawei arrive to save the day :D together with sheng heng the giggling sidekick and rujun the faithful boyfriend. like true blue army men, we went in, grabbed her out, then we ran. the SAF. swift and decisive. okay that's bullshit i hate the army.
ANYWAY. we kidnapped her, out of vch, and then off we went for supper! :D met chungyang and cheryl at lau pa sat. AND THEN WE ATE. :D dinner for me meijun chungyan. cause walao i damn nice can. i book out liao go home straight then come out again, no time to eat properly la. so yea super super hungry.
yea lau pa sat-ed then we wanted to catch a midnight movie at like almost 12mn. but mm meijun couldn't so errr she went home first loh. yup so left chungyan cheryl sean the recruit rujun the sct shengheng oct and me the ooct :D
mm anyway midnight movie ytd was another fiasco la hahahha. we wanted to watch movie but couldn't decide cause sheng heng SIR, don't wanna watch alien vs monsters! like W.T.H. and rujun and shengheng and cy i think watched night at the museum 2 liao. so like true hc ppl, we just stood there and stoned and pretended to think of a solution.
yea when we finally decided it was like 12.30am liao. and since there's no bus we walked from lau pa sat to umm marina square there. walk walk walk talk rubbish. reached there only to find out that BOTH marina square and suntec were totally closed like wth happened to midnight movies?! yea basically we walked like crazy for nothing. which on hindsight, wasn't such a surprise afterall.
yup so we ended up at xin wang honky cafe. drinking teh peng (and rujun's coke) and uhhh talking more rubbish la. basically just laxing around without a specific timing to meet, a specific place to be, just hanging out, with no objective in mind. ns makes you learn to appreciate the smaller things in life. anw there wasn't any bus or mrt to take home. so yea not much choice la. cab very ex we're poor people.
oh actually there WAS a show to catch aliens vs monsters at 1.55am. at the cathay. but rujun only told us RIGHT AFTER we had ordered our drinks. so no go. 25 mins to run from suntec all the way to the cathay was quite impossible too. considering our pace from lps to suntec.
so mmm just sat around and chilled, till we got bored of sitting around then went for a walk (again) talked rubbish along the way (again) although a lot less this time cause we all sleepy liao. without a specific timing to meet, a specific place to be, just walking around, with no objective in mind. walked past the singapore flyer then we kinda realised that we really didn't know where we were walking to. and it was 4am alrdy anw. WHICH MEANT TIME FOR MACS BREAKFAST. :D:D:D so we walked back to marina square macs hehehhe.
mmm walked back, and had breakfast wheeee :D HOTCAKES WITH SAUSAGES HOHOHO. :d okay sausage as in singular. but still :D yay yum yum. okay despite the attempted sugar rush with 1.5 packets of maple syrup and the intended coffee boost, me and sean still KO at the macs there la. the last thing i knew after finishing my breakfast, was hearing rujun and sheng heng and chungyan playing vertual tennis pro on sheng heng's psp, and then i told sean who was obviously struggling to keep awake to go to sleep, and then i just died on the table. sleeeeeeepy la.
yea aye actually slept a while only la like maybe 10 mins? idk. but when we woke up it was like 5plus. so yay got public transport to take home. so we er all went home (:
aiyah basically the night was just spent eating and walking and eating and walking and eating and walking. but still (: christmas eve all over again, just that this time we're on foot we're too poor for cab liao. no more portable atm liu zhen to borrow money from.
today supposed to catch aliens vs monsters 3D somewhere sometime someplace, but everyone's still sleeping zzz. probably go out in the afternoon loh. my ooc plans take a backseat again. i'll go see a specialist next week instead. (: because cider is the elixir of life
10.27am
okay i'm back from my first week. i must say. armour infantry is depressing. no one wants to be there. everyone wants out. the camp's ulu to the max, and the sergeants treat you like chao recruits.
on the other hand, there's the good (okay BETTER. not good) stuff. the food's not too bad, the training's not as tough we learn how to drive a tank (albeit briefly) and umm. we have no 5BX. yea that's abt it.
but still. i'm going to ooc if i can. pride takes a backseat. its just senseless la all this AI thing. there're many many incentives for me to ooc. and become a clerk hopefully. and if i successfully ooc, that'd mean one less worry on my mind. which would GREATLY help really. :\
although i'm still stuck in this shit camp, admin spec (or storeman or armskote spec for that matter) means no more chiong sua. although its like super boring, but i figured out 15 months of fire movement drills are also bound to be boring.
finishing the 21 week course would mean missing interjc cause got weekend training, having 6 saturdays burnt (excluding taiwan), spending 1 month in taiwan which would be kinda fun, except that it's during sept. meaning no MAF for me, no pvsp to play for (and no $100+++ prize money), and spending my 19th birthday in a jungle all the way in taiwan. which basically sucks.
i don't know its very frustrating. i don't like to chao keng and fake my way through. like only when necessary. like on thursday when meijun called and practically whined and refused to put down the phone so i told her i'd consider going for her alumni concert the next day (which was bookout day incidentally). yea why can't the army just like. give me a less depressing vocation. save me all the trouble. save me from making these decisions. save me from doing things that i don't wanna do. like chao keng.
argh this sucks. i hate the army. esp their way of doing stuff. i can't wait to get out. >:( because cider is the elixir of life

1:54 PM the begining of the end.
8.56pm
tmr marks the begining of the end. that's the bright side. if i'm unlucky, i won't be moving anywhere else all the way till i ORD. 8th November 2010. that's abt the only good thing i guess.
this afternoon went to town to catch a movie with sean rujun cheryl star trek. maybe its cause i'm moody maybe its cause i got a super black face maybe its cause i'm not a star trek fanatic (and i have no idea what's it all abt) but i found it like umm okay loh like that loh.
yea but okay la just went out to catch a movie and that's it. cause cheryl had to go work sean had to book in rujun had to go out with mj. so i went home. ahahaha quite pointless but still. (:
mmm i dunno. suddenly on my way home. i just felt. very. very very very troubled. i don't know. its like i've been immersing myself in life, trying to just push everything, all my problems all the way to the back of my mind. don't know don't care. and today, it all came back to me. you can run. but you can't hide. oh well.
and yes. i'm a passive catholic at best. i don't go to church v often. okay make that once in a blue moon. but today, i went home, dumped my bag, and went off to church. i don't know its just that i felt like i needed to share my burdens with someone. not just talk (and whine) to someone, but really just share my problems la. like nah, here, give you half of my problems. and i guess there's only one person who can do that for me.
i guess its just that there's been too many things for me to comprehend. too many things happening at the same time, and all of them not according to plan. i've always thought i could handle anything life throws at me. but today, i.. gave up trying to move on with life alone. there's just so much shit i can handle. so i turn back to religion. just like old times.
its been such a long time since i've went to church like since my bmt days or so. more than 3 months ago. today when i went in i felt really overwhelmed. i felt like i didn't belong there. i felt like a sinner. it sounds really religious and stuff like you only hear from the priest's mouth, but its really what i felt today. overwhelmed.
yea anw enough of the religious stuff the rest i'll keep to myself. anw yea. life sucks atm. as if i haven't had enough to worry abt ALREADY. the army comes and throws me 21 weeks (and possibly the rest of my army life) of armour infantry YAY.
everywhere i go, every forum thread i read, every one i asks, they all say the same thing. good luck. yes apparently its super chiong sua. okay so we don't run beside a tank but they say its so hot and noisy inside the damn tank, ppl are happy when they run beside the tank instead of inside it.
arghhhh. and just when i told the recce ppl during the 46SAR recce interview that i had enough of chiong sua, enough of the shit that's army life. i just wanna serve and screw off.
they say there's a motto there ONCE AN ARMOUR ALWAYS AN ARMOUR. or something like that. even if you down pes, you'll still be stuck there doing shit work. means i'll be stuck at sungei gedong camp for the rest of my ns life. like wth i can't imagine going to cck for the next year and a half. take mrt to cck, still must take bus. and there's only one bus. bus 975. that goes all the way past the crocodile farms and goat farms to sungei gedong.
oh well. life sucks. on the upside, i shall quote the unquotable ken yeow. no matter how tough it is, it will always come to an end. (this was when we were mugging for As) yea although this quote stinks, it makes a lot of sense surprisingly and yea it helps a bit sometimes.
or to refine and make it more quote-worthy, this too shall pass. - quote daryl.

3:14 PM 2 years on.
10.14pm
today was a day of catching up. with sixoh, with jiehao. and it was a good day. (:
morning somehow dragged myself out of bed at like 9.30am. to go jiehao's place there for breakfast as long-promised. (like since my BMT days i think) hahah okay its not breakfast la. i woke up too late heh. more like umm brunch yup. (: had thai noodle express which was really quite good. i dunno suddenly everything seems good. must be my impending army days. zzz back to camp and more shitty food. arghhh.
anw yea yay he treated me brunch i dunno for what also haha. then umm went up to his place to look see and waste time la. haha new house ma 33rd floor somemore. walao damn imba la the view damn nice. can see like half of singapore. and tiong bahru seems a nice place. kinda sleepy, not like my area. my area's more of like DEAD. (and ulu and inconvenient and messy but let's not get started over here)
yup anw left at 1.45pm to go city hall there meet sixoh YAY. :D hahaha walao that place super packed la. like full of ppl. okay not really, but still more ppl than usual. yea but anw met them. and walao damn good to see them again. haven't seen them since the last outing like on 020109.
yeaaa went to coffee club to drink coffee and like just catch up with one another la. haven't seen each other so long liao what. (other than me kw daryl la) of course got a shitload of things to say la. yea just lag there catch up and talk rubbish. like wondering whether the waitress was angmoh or chinese. okay i know this sounds stupid. but this waitress had sort of blonde hair and she could speak chinese better than any of us. so of course, the great debate. yea in the end daryl asked la (cheehong angmoh what) but NOOOO she's a chinese. haahha maybe an albino. but VERY friendly hahaha she serve us that time also come and talk a lot of rubbish with us.
yea just lagged there for like almost 3 hours listening to phillip (who's a lot darker) and his recruit days like so nostalgic hahah. but no i don't miss them definitely. listening to marcus the si tikopek and his hilarious driving lesson stories. hit the kerb 9 times in 3 days. park car for 15 minutes. turn on the wiper instead of the left signal. get screwed by SAF-drafted instructor. hahahhahha really laugh until cry la.
'isn't this a bit unglam' said the waitress so yes we cleared the glasses and the menus and our barang barang before taking this shot. we DID order more than 1 drink la, we're not so cheapo okayyyy. phillip. marcus. daryl. me. jam. kw. ohsevenexsixoh. (:
yea anw lagged around till like 5pm. then we initially wanted to catch a movie but timings all damn screwed at marina square so we went for early dinner instead (: at yuki yaki :D:D:D venue for our sixoh jts 2 and a half years ago. just that this time, instead of the 30 odd ppl, we had just the fantastic four of us. phillip went home for dinner, marcus went to play lan with his brother.
ahhahaha and this is where kingba kang's kingba cooking skills came up. this was more like $20 spent to play with food rather than actually eating the food itself. okay la we eat what we play with la but more emphasis on playing actually hahaha. no better exemplified than lkw. who took like confirm more than 10 eggs to experiment around with. OH OH OH. jam says i can cook (relatively) well! okay when you're at the same table as lkw anyone can cook relatively well. BUT STILL. CREDIT TO ME OKAY. :D:D:D
like this blob here. it's actually supposed to be like sushi wrapped up in egg. but umm the egg just wouldn't wrap around the sushi thing, and halfway through the sushi just disintegrated anw. so. FAIL.
and this is our self-named dish, MC tmr. the name's pretty self-explanatary. okay looks are deceiving okay. this looks like hokkien mee. it actually looks edible. but please. don't try this at home. apart from the noodles and the prawn, the rest of the stuff there aren't cooked. they're just there for decorative purposes.
and we have this butterysurprise too. which is basically small amts of meehoon fried in 4 packets of butter. damn damn damn disgustingly oily.
and the exploding egg plague. like the herbal chicken soup mixed in beaten up eggs, then splashed onto the hot plate. walao damn horrible its like splishhhh then bubbles start appearing from all spots on the egg. like rapidly like some epidemic like that. disclaimer first before you all get the wrong idea. this dish is TOTALLY kw's idea okay. i did not take part in this at all.
and this is the sixoh mess. in the aftermath of the kangwee disasters. which we happily dumped into like the soup so they can't see. anw i don't really think they charge for small stuff like a bit of food wastage (:
okay la as a form of our sincerest apology, we gave them some HOT STUFF. guess who! :D
FAIL.
FAIL. FAIL.
but of course, kingba kang la. (: the man with the plan. :D:D
yea after that WAH. THE MOST INTERESTING PART OF TODAY'S SIXOH OUTING. chasing lee kang wee who was gonna meet his girlfriend. walao i think he was late of sth. cause we talk to much sai with him, so like he was RUNNING to the mrt station and we were trying to sneak up behind him without him knowing. dunno i thought he alrdy saw us cause err we made it quite obvious la we were so close behind him if we were playing frisbee he could've called a double team. so i gave up on stealth, and just RAN after him also. with my flip flops making a hell lot of noise. haha i think we pissed many ppl off but wth hahah not wearing school shirt. DAO LA ehheheh :D:D:D
piang eh he jog/run all the way from marina square to city hall then we chase all the way also. super tiring la esp after the imba meal. hahah yea but it was damn fun la. :D
yea then daryl and jam wanna go home so yea i also go home loh. actually band ppl were meeting at 9.30pm at newton circus for supper, (okay its just rujun cheryl sean and calvin) but aiyah tired liao la. and damn imba far can. so yea forget it la. tmr then go out with them (:
sixoh (: because cider is the elixir of life

4:50 PM the third last.
11.51pm
today i felt somewhat as if i were back in school. and i suddenly miss school a lot. esp super slack fridays.
fridays last year would mean. PE in the morning. followed by some slack math lesson. then an imba 3 hour or so break. where me dayong and daniel (i think) would just play central plaza frisbee. cause its like econs lecture then tutorial, so both wings would be deserted. not a soul in sight, not a sound to be heard, just the 3 of us, and the sounds of the frisbee scrapping against the floor. (and of course the frequent swearings from our beloved dayong sampan). yup just 3 hours of non-stop flicking. without a care in the world.
till like 1 or 2pm. then i'd rush up for lessons. chem lesson with mr loy at A300. running into class sweaty and stinky, he'd always give the same grimace, and the same, tired, words. 'jiawei... cannot... wear... shorts....... to... come... for.... lessonssss.... hen... nan... kan....' and then i'd run off to the toilet to change to long pants. thereby wasting another 10mins from the 1 hour tutorial. and then liberation.
training would start after another few hours. cause of the then-j1's CT session. week in, week out. always the same. my favourite day of the week. super slack friday.
today i went to school at 6.45am. just like the previous 2 years. no idea, just had this urge. besides, it'd be a looooooooong time before i get the chance to do this again. no thanks to my 21 week course. -.-
just that i didn't go to school la. i went to kap to lag around. met familiar faces on the bus, and as usual, i fell asleep halfway through. aye but as i passed by school, seeing both wings chock full of students, students rushing to copy homework, sleeping, eating, slacking, idk i just really really missed MY jc life. very different from other hc students, VERY failure, but very fun nonetheless. (:
ahhhh missed the mornings esp, alarm ringing at 5am. snoozing till 5.30am. leave house at 5.50am. take the 6.04am bus 33. take the 6.25am bus 170. reach school at 6.40am, waving to marcus at the rv bench in the canteen, face super black cause i just got woken up alighting from the bus at the hc stop. going to the bandroom early at like 6.45am meeting mel and weiyang in the band room alone. like super dian deng pao but i'd just go there to sleep (or at least pretend to sleep). and wait till like sean or ernest or meijun or the others came. then we'd talk rubbish make a hell lot of noise play cards, sing song. all the way till andrea/sean came to push us all out to warm up for national anthem. ahhhhhhhhh i miss school life. really.
fastforward to today 22nd May 2009, 2.45pm. training. once again. this time though, i'm a j3. and totally out of place. but still. YAY. (: sitting at the 6E bench, waiting for training to start, throwing a bit of frisbee at the space beside the bench. just like old times.
training today was haha okay quite fun cause idk. anyhow play la. didn't really play much either, but wth la haha its okay. i'm not supposed to be here anw. i should've been out way long time ago. but its nice la, soaking in the atmostphere of a friday afternoon training session. 2 whole days for them to catch up on hw, so yay can play without stress and worries, and just release one week's worth of steam. so fun aye (:
yea dinner was macs again. macspicy! x3 this time ): cause aiyah. 1. lent money to daryllll - mcspicy x1 2. treated liu jingyi - mcspicy x2 3. i me myself - mcspicy x3 so i'm officially, almost broke. i shall have to withdraw again soon. ugh i hate withdrawing money so quickly.
going back to school today brought back a lot of memories. very very nice memories. argh. which makes going back to camp on monday even worse. 21 weeks. chiong sua. armour infantry. why. why. WHY. WHY. WHY.
life sucks ): because cider is the elixir of life

6.16pm
walao i'm so so so sleepy la. today super zhuobo. sleep a lot HAHHAHA. make up for ytd's exertions la. -g-
today. woke up at 8plus. then went to daryl's place to err play a bit of frisbee ahaha nothing better to do la. (: just throw around a bit and feel good.
yea and oh we split the summer league money up between us liao. and no refreshser course is needed, please refer to a few posts down if really needed.
output = $300 input = $121 future input = $28 x 6 (melvin cynthia marcus shaun oli jiaming) total loss = $300 - $121 - $168
= $11 money collected back was $110 but i'd be making a loss of $22. so daryl was nice enough to split. (: and yes. never pay for the team beforehand. although i DID get the cake money back wheeee!
yea then since the frisbee ppl like went to play pool. -.- so err nvm la lazy to join them. quite ridiculous la, go down all the way to bukit timah to play pool of all things. of course barring the obvious reason that i really suck at pool (as the juniors ALRDY know) i don't wanna waste such a hot and humid day away JUST like that. so i went home to sleep instead (: okay that's cutting a long story short la.
went to parkway to collect photos and contacts and then jalan jalan a bit. then da-paoed lunch and went home yay. mmmm then dunno la we were supposed to like go andrea's house play MAHONGGGG. :D:D:D me rujun andrea chungyan. but chungyan gtg at like 5pm. so kinda useless liao. awww. ):
yea in the end i went home pasted more photos on my wall played more pokemon, and went back to sleep for like uhhhh 3 hours. ah so tired these few days (: because cider is the elixir of life

3:38 PM block leave day #2
10.38pm
block leave day #2. I WOKE UP AT 11AM YAY :D:D:D
haha then walked out to the main road to get donuts for breakfast. dunno why i just felt like it. (:
mmm then chop chop had to go down to sengkang liao cause si xmei say go down at 1.30pm to go get cake and write card for daryl (and jack but jack didn't come awww) but THEN. guess what. xinmei was late. okay no surprise here zzz. yea so in the end i was left tooning around the compass point supermarket trying to like blend in the crowd. quite loser but whatever.
ya in the end we got some shit chocolate cake. which wasn't picked by me contrary to popular belief. i would have went the lincoln way and got 2 slices of cake :D one for daryl one for jack ahhahha super cheapo la.
aye walao stupid la all you lousy juniors think that we go ns earn a lot of money like that. didn't you all hear abt the very famous 50cents/hour wage structure?! walao pay for summer league now pay for the cake also. summer league got deficit liao. and i'm prepared not to see the cake money ever again. its like. gone with the wind.
refresher course: never pay for stuff first. you'll never get the full amt back.
anw daryl said he'd be late so he asked me to take warmups at like 2pm at sengkang. but of course we spent the time doing up daryl's - and jack's birthday cards instead la (: 2 hour warmups quite gay anw. yup so we just lagged there and like doodle and vandalise both cards until daryl came and forced us all to go to the field. heh. some kind of captain i am. :D
anw yea lets get to the main part of today 170509. hcjc vs smu. we lost 11-10. which was much better than expected. yea and like raphael said. we're the only stupid team that goes to celebrate after losing. but whatever. haha once again, didn't really do much. just did some idiot-proof stuff la. like umm popping and swinging. yay with each passing match i think im becoming more comfortable with the disc. more calm less panic. (: but still yea. i'm happy with the result really. :D the team as a whole learnt quite a bit from this match i guess. okay not say learnt but more of like put into practice what we alrdy knew. so yea that's one good point. (: we've got good flow yay. the team is improving. :D:D
yup then after that today being daryl's birthday we gave him a birthday dunk like right in the middle of a mudbath la. one two three PLOP! :D and of course we sang him a birthday song TWICE. so nice right. once after the dumping, another time with the cake. yea speaking of cake, we finally ate the cake like 5 hours after buying it. by which it was like soft and soggy. so being the gluttons that we are :D we just grabbed a spoon and we DIG IN. and eat (: damn disgusting but whatever la FOOD IS FOOD I JUST EAT. :D:D:D
our imba team.
wah i think we're zai la. we played with like 13 ppl la. only 2 girls. i think they played a lot. the rest of the near 30 man team had to go mug for some test tmr. yea playing with 13 man was like tiring la. so much so we had to go 6-1, or 7-0. lucky smu were nice enough to let us play instead of insisting. yea but we played well as a team la yay good job good job :D
once again. today's game felt good (: much like last week's match against lagi shiok. even though we lost both. haha but fun la. just playing the game purely for the fun of it. no stress, no pressure. just really. for fun only. i think i'm growing to enjoy the game, once again, just like the old times. (:
yup then came dinnertime. okay that's a bit too much food in a short time but whatever. i think my appetite grew ever since i enlisted into army la. every day just eat and eat and eat. today dinner was at macs. okay supposed to be burger king but i really didn't feel like eating like some unworthy smal burger. walao i repeat once again. my money hard to earn one loh. yea so we ended up at macs. AND YAY I GOT MY MCSPICY. they finally changed the patty back to a piece of thigh. okay la quite long liao just that an army life is a damn deprived life.
THE RETURN OF MCSPICY (with thigh meat!)
yup a hungry man is an angry man. a satisfied man is a happy man. yay the mcspicy meal felt good (: so happy liao then can go home loh. the juniors were busy mugging hard for dunno-what-test anw. so go home loh. (:
tmr block leave day #3. i really can't get used to the fact that i won't be booking in tonight. or rather, i'm not in camp atm. so weird. what's happening to me?! D: because cider is the elixir of life

4:14 PM block leave day #1
1.14am
day #1 of block leave. was spent quite meaningfully la. okay that's crap la today was rubbish just slacking around :D:D
went to meet andrea rujun sean (+ cheryl and meijun later on) at kallang leisurepark at 2pm. supposedly la but rujun and sean were late. reached at like 1.45pm. bummed around there (i'm getting damn good at bumming around)
actually i think i saw someone who looked like andrea from the back like before 2pm aka meeting time. but err aiyah DAO haha don't know don't care. (: couldn't be bothered to check.
mmm then subway-ed for lunch which kinda sucked. the outlet there is seriously total lack of supplies la. their veggies don't have lettuce tomatoes and a heck lot of other stuff. basically we were left with cucumber olives pickles and onions. which kinda sucks. and then the cookies only left 2 kinds. some peanut butter thingy and raisin thing. NO DOUBLE CHOCOLATE COOKIES LIKE WTH. and drinks coke sprite barley all sold out. left with orange and lemon tea. super shortage of resups la there. but still. its $5.90 (: i'm not complaining TOO much. okay maybe i am but its justified la whatever. >:(
mm then went to andrea's house yay! went to mahjong and guitar hero yay yay! oh and i won at mahjong yay yay yay! i think its beginners luck la i really suck at it actually. just anyhow play and OH I WIN then yay collect money. $$$ okay chips whatever we didn't play money.
then guitar hero-ed which was quite fail cause i'm like a newbie la. but okay la can get the hang of it. roughly.
and THANK GOD THERE'S NO SPACE FOR A MIKE. else we'd all have died even earlier from sean's TOTALLY. AWESOME. SINGING.
yup a pity that andrea had to leave at like 5.45pm for some concert. but okay whatever. we ended up back at leisurepark. pastamania-ed. and then went to catch angel and demons! yay yay yay yay!
actually my sispec section went to mak weiyang's house to watch the man u arsenal match. i was really tempted to go la. but aiyah never go out with band ppl so long liao. and anw his house is damn far its at like sunset way there la. too lazy to go.
anw angels and demons at 9pm. oh btw the beautifully imperfect video came up again before the movie but lets not talk abt it. kinda embarrasing for ns guys. heh.
angels and demons was err kinda disappointing la really. okay nice is quite nice la. but after all the hype abt it you realise that actually the book's like much nicer. more exciting and action packed. this one's quite rushed i think. and they changed the story quite a bit. argh. D:
yup anw it ended at like 11.30pm. then rujun and meijun went home. and sean came over to my house to get earplugs cause i sort of forgot to bring for him heh. (:
and so. that's the end of today. and the start of tmr. happy birthday daryl DAMN shuai (: because cider is the elixir of life

2:51 AM D:
10.02am
ytd 090509. acsi championships. army section outing.
#1 significant event. I GOT MY PAY. i'm not sure how much, but it should be in the 4-digit range. wheeeeeeeee :D:D:D
yup then went down to dover road watch the juniors play in the acsi tourney.
walao they sent 6 teams la i think we constitute 1/3 of the teams there. anw yea i think they actually did rather well. playing at the standards of rj and sometimes ac. ended up 4th, behind acjc acsib rjc. which was really not bad. (: at least now we know we're not far behind. and oh yay they finally beat cjc 7-2 EAT THAT S**T.
losing to acjc was okayyy whatever kinda expected. acsib was sort of a surprise though didn't expect them to improve so much just within a year. (: and they play with by far the most spirit la. acjc was as usual up there la but err i dunno doesn't look as strong as last year's imba team though. rj was the big surprise this time. not sure if its cause they split their teams evenly, but i think they played well below expectations. lost to them in the 3rd place playoff 6-5 by universal point. which was great, cause we matched them most, if not all of the time, despite playing with extreme fatigue and CRAMPS HAHAHHAH.
idk after they lost the universal point the whole team just looked.. devastated really. like the world collasped on them. i really didn't know what to say to them la. i mean. this is just a shit tournament. poorly organised, poorly handled. and losing to rj by universal is not exactly lousy. as long as we try our best, there's no shame in losing. the referees here, all prcs la walao. and they know nuts abt frisbee don't know the rules don't know how to ask just heck care make stupid calls. zzz.
speaking of prcs. walao damn insulted. today i took the bus then there was this indian bus driver walao i ask him question that time he reply to me in chinese la. LIKE WTH. he was like struggling to answer in chinese i think. i'm not sure. it sounded like chinese. WALAO WALAO WALAO. DO I LOOK THAT PRC SERIOUSLY. (this is a rhetorical question -.-) I KNOW THE HAIR SUCKS BUT ITS NOT LIKE I HAVE A CHOICE LA. WALAO WALAO SI ZHONG GUO ZAI.
mm yea anw the tournament ended at 7pm. at 7pm i was supposed to meet my section at suntec kushin bo for jap buffet. but wth hahah DAO. anw i reached there at abt errr 8 ba. walao. hahahh EAT EAT EAT EAT EAT.
sashimiiiiiii and sushiiiiii :D:D:D half of the plate.
mussels softshell crabs soba and err random tempura i don't know the tags are in jap most of the times i don't know what i'm eating HAHAH I JUST EAT LA. :D
and dessert. (:
oh mannnn eat like pig like that. but still don't think i made my money worth. dunno it just FELT like i ate a lot actually i don't think i did. dunno just feel bloated suddenly. walao my hard earned money la. must make every cent count really. hahaha.
walao but after that i was so so so damn full i like really really really wanna vomit la. they went to play arcade but i just like sat outside watched the world go by and let my food digest. horrible la hahahha i feel like a glutton. even today after i wake up i still feel kinda full la. haha i'm not gonna touch jap food in a long long time.
yay but fun la. just sit there talk cock. wait fot the waitress there to ring the bell then we all RUNNNNN go get the good food. so typically singaporean la. hear the bell, then see EVERYONE run. like the next table this lady was gonna put some food in her mouth then when she heard the bell she immediately like dropped her food threw her chopsticks down jumped off her seat and ran to get the good foood. wow. singaporeans la.
anw yea after that we were too damn full to do anything else. so we errr lagged around bummed around at the arcade. then we all went home hahha. THE END.
2/3 of the section (L-R): darren the horny hongky. me. yaodong the ninja warriorrrr. chong yang the slacker pai kia. mak the officer wannabe. darryl my fellow recce ))): ian the errr.. brave (i wouldn't dare to be seen in THAT la). (stand-by-)boon.
-
today summer league against lagi shiok. walao i really don't know how the juniors are gonna play la what with ytd's exertions. D: haha but either way, we'll probably (or most likely) lose. okay that's putting it nicely. ahhh sucks and its raining quite heavily now. zzz die la waterlogged pitches again. D: because cider is the elixir of life

11:46 AM :D
6.46pm
we lost 6-11 to zero discplacement after leading 6-5 at halftime. so what?
there's no shame in losing. playing against professional teams who've played like what? at least 5 years of competitive ultimate. its probably like what. 4months max since some ppl touched the frisbee for the first time.
played as usual la. which is like kinda sucky. didn't do much, one layout. which was essentially a slide and to tell the truth, it was a turnover. eh but first. i didn't cheat. i alrdy said it was their disc liao. but they like not happy leh keep asking whether i got catch or not ask ask ask so many times, in the end i just 'okay i caught it' and they were satisfied and we moved on. aye gotta improve. hopefully i will over the weeks. hopefully.
grahhh i needa play better. jump higher, run faster, throw better. essentially, improve everything la. sighhhh why so suck. ): rant rant rant rant rant. my turn to start training liao.
moving on to better things, once again, i must say. i admire the j1s tenacity. up against the pros, idk even i feel uncertain sometimes. and i've been playing for slightly more than a year alrdy. for the j1s to go there and to stand up to those experienced players, i guess it takes courage. and for that, i'm proud of them. today when they were thrown in, they performed when it mattered. i was quite impressed with some really. (: no need to win the league or anything la. winning isn't everything. sometimes. :D
P.S those with photos PLEASE SEND ME. EMAIL ALSO CAN. because cider is the elixir of life

3:51 PM (:
10.52pm
my estimation was right yay i slept 3 hours ytd. D: how i managed to keep awake till now, i have no idea.
dragged myself out of bed at 5.45am today morning. to go to school for frisbee. most of them had bio lecture so we only had like 10 ppl so in the end we played like 5v5 match. which was hopeless la. cause really. like what daryl said, 1 man can't change a team. and being the most senior player out there i just feel really helpless when they ask me what's going on cause i know what's wrong, but i don't know how to remedy it. its just not an overnight thing. and when your juniors look to you and you don't have any answers well, feel like i let them down a bit. i guess tmr will be worse. being a captain isn't all fun and play at all. >:( why did i ever get scammed into this.
yea anw after the bio lecture ended, more ppl came and then we went over to the side field for the acsi training. mmm nothing much la basicaly just play around loh. yea then after a while of that went to crash band prac with rujun and cheryl hahaha.
aye actually nothing much there too cause they were doing like their set piece which was some i dunno awkward sounding piece. aiyah basically went there to snooze a bit and blow some really really cold aircon.
walao the band room damn ugly la i know i keep saying it, but really. what's with the sleeping bags and bedsheets draped over the walls! D: i mean, yea absorb the sound but can't they think of better ideas?! c'mon hwachong IP creativity?! so much for thinking out of the box. -.-
mm then they finally played hymn okay not the entire piece but still yay nice nice nice (: okay la the singing part. the others. i dunno. it sounds kinda restricted, like they're not playing to the max too constrained by the technical details which makes it kinda constipated. but whatever not my problem. (:
yup then went back to meet the frisbee ppl for lunch at -where else- coro. yup ate and talked till we got chased away like many times twice by the security guard, once by some random shop uncle once by the tuition centre's teacher whatever la go and die all of them. complain sai their place so ulu don't even have business la.
haha at first i wanted to upload some photos but after telling the juniors abt all the DB stories in army like how taking photos in army can send you to db for a few weeks, i decided to be smarter. maybe, just maybe, the chief of army reads my blog. then die. haha so nope. no army photos up here.
yup after telling them horror stories abt lost bayonets and boxes of rounds and sentencing them to years of db, we finally budged out of that corridor and yea i went to amk to meet cheryl and ru to go watch movie! (:
after so long, i finally caught taken. and its really not bad. very interesting, kida gripping also. yea that's why i didn't sleep during the show. (: but what really caught my attention was this advert all the way at the start of everything. which coincidentally, daryl mentioned the exact same ad on his blog today too.
i don't know why, but i was really really touched by it. i nearly cried at the end of it. haha lucky cheryl too sleepy beside me so she probably didn't notice anything. but yea it somehow made an impact on me. i don't know why either. ahhhhh emo kid. D:
yup later went for dinner at S11 cause i'm totally broke yea i had to borrow a grand total of $13 from rujun awwww. ): haha yea then went home. super duper tired. haha and tmr still debating whether or not to go for the band's syf rehearsal tmr. its at RP, like super far la. D: but its probably the last time i'll be hearing the band before they're syf. unless i ooc like tmr la. (: aye dunno la. i feel so lazy.
after that got summer league yay! :D so exciting haha. but aiyah dunno la just go there to play for experience la. against zero disc, we'll probably lose but its okay. (: its not our fault we're new. hc will rape everyone else during interjc2010. yay. (:
haha actually i've got more stuff to write but aiyah really damn damn damn tired alrdy so yea i shall end soon (:
okay make that now. HAHA. because cider is the elixir of life

6:21 PM labour day :D:D
1.23am
today was a haha day (: yay morning woke up at like 9am with 6 hours of blessed sleep. yay i love my bed. :D:D:D
yup then went down to daryl's house there to uhh throw abt and meet him (and his guailan neighbour actually) before going to sengkang for labour day hat. aka evolution.
mmm kinda lazy and annoyed by the fact that they lumped all the hc ppl into one team. its really quite insulting. so i didn't feel like playing despite having all my barang barang with me at that time.
mm watched a bit played around with daryl and the j1s a bit and yay we got keeks to coach us for the summer league like YAY WE HAVE A COACH. AT LAST. sort of la just give some tips here and there. but that's more than enough liao (:
yup then went all the way down to amk cause i didn't wanna go town mainly cause i felt that umm ihearthc shirt and shorts and slippers were a bit too shabby for town heh. yup met sean yiyi ernest cheryl then lagged around went to play a bit of arcade. and yes. sean i cannot play shooting games for nuts. i am a bobo shooter really. told you you were wasting your money.
yea then we went to pepper lunch to eat cause ernest insisted on not eating at subway for dunno what reason. so yea ate there first before going weely's place. lucky we ate w/o waiting for rujun and meijun to come. they came at like 9pm la. if we'd waited i'd be like totally dead can the whole day i ate like one energy bar and 3 err round thingys from mr bean. i don't know what its called la.
yup then after dinner we went down to weely's place since he can't move much ever since he ooc-ed with some torn ligament or whatever and got stuck with crutches. visited him and just really lagged around his house la. too bored liao, so we decided to play this supposedly scary ghost game. called hotel 626, at abt 10pm.
but with ernest around, nothing is ever scary. he totally screwed the whole thing up la. okay minus sean and rujun la who were umm hiding somewhere behind.
yup anyway at the end we were like quite -.- cause we expected a lot more cause ppl like say they cry after playing or sth like that so we were like hurrr like that only wtf wtf wtf waste time. yea and it was late like 1045pm then so had to go home la.
haha i really have no idea how i'm gonna reach school tmr at like 7.30am la. means i leave house at 6.30am. means i wake up at 5.45am. means i have abt 4 hours of sleep if i drop dead in front of my com at this very moment. yes i took 20 mins to type all the above.
oh oh oh but one good news was that weely said that gwh saw the recce list and apparently there's like 14 ppl in a recce platoon only instead of the 40 the encik told me. and its allocated to ppl who like are dumb enough to indicate interest in being tortured and raped. so YAY THERE IS HOPE AFTER ALL. I WAS SO HAPPY I MSGED DARRYL IMMEDIATELY. (the other one, my bunk mate who also had the recce interview) yay there is some faint glimmer of hope :D:D:D
ah i shall sleep soon. frisbee tmr from 7.30am to 12nn. somewhere in between i'll drop by salt to err crash band prac with some of the band ppl la. grah i wanna hear them play hymn like the whole thing la not bits and pieces of it so annoying haha. but nonetheless, haha yay fun weekend ahead! (: because cider is the elixir of life
