12:30 AM HAPPY BIRTHDAY MJ (:
7.30am
HAPPY 19th ERNEST AND CHUNGYAN :D and meijun also actually. (:
THAT'S FOR NOT WANTING TO WATCH TRANSFORMERS. >:( yep good stuff and pretty faces aside, ytd was meijun's pre-birthday party (: thought up by rujun who then promptly dumped it to me and sean to uhhh go have some fun with meijun ):
yea anyway walao we got it all planned out liao la while rujun was out having their own mini-pre-pre birthday celeration after he booked out, me and sean were like thinking of stuff to do and things to get etc etc. aka doing the planning la. then like okay liao settled everything after super long. cause sean got 2 tickets free to transformers at tiong bahru GV 9pm show. so we decided to go there and watch after like dinner at PS. so yay settled liao, then out of the blue like somehow trough 6 years of telepathy rujun called just when we finished. to tell us that:
1. meijun DIE also don't wanna watch transformers 2. we should share a $55 forever friends bear for her.
like GREAT. i was like uhhh.. i'll ask sean abt the bear. thereby passing the blame to him when we decided to tell him we weren't getting the $55 bear. yay (:
and WELL. the transformer thing. sorta saved us some trouble la. cause sean got 2 free tickets. and tiong bahru the theatre quite small la, seats start at row A and end at row N. it says so on the website you all can check. now check out sean's tickets (:
apparently there's no row Q so hmm sean kept insisting there was a row Q and we were like gonna risk it and just pretend that there's a row Q so yea meijun's utter refusal solved something at the very least -.- THANKS A LOT.
anywayyyyy went down there and since i had to get the afore mentioned 1kg cake and rujun specifically wanted that damn 1kg secret recipe chocolate banana cake i went to suntec, then to marina square only to find out that the branch at marina square didn't have like the freaking whole cake la. so i had to go back to suntec to find the lousy secret recipe there to try to get the cake else i'd have to go the PS there and get the stupid cake.
stupid. haha somehow they made this $51.35 cake look damn pasar malam la. anyway stupid stupid now need to go PS to meet them meaning i had to lug the freaking 1kg cake all the way up the crowded peak hour bus all the way to freaking PS la. like omg damn evil can ppl excuse 10 days heavy load can't even carry rifle still must carry cake. -.-
anyway walao piss pissed reach there liao then uhhh still must wait for rujun and meijun cause when i just got down the bus they called to say meet at like cafe cartel there since they were like just one floor down. so like FINE. meet there lo. crossed 2 roads there, then reached there. still had to wait like 8 mins. before they FINALLY appeared. -.- like how freaking long do you need to take ONE FREAKING FLIGHT of escalators?! like duh obviously less than the time taken to cross 2 lousy traffic lights la. >:( but okay whatever 'birthday girl' so waittttt.
yea while all that was going on, sean and cheryl were going around upstairs desperately trying to find another alternative to the $55 forever friends bear. cause like duh meijun's rujun's girlfriend la not ours. no need to spend so much on her bday. afterall, we're poor nsfs. ): yea in the end we got her this exact same bear just that its a bit smaller in size :DD
anyway in the end got sheng heng ernest cheryl andrea me sean rujun meijun weiguo (: went to eat at manhatten then yea after we all ate like a lot a lot till even rujun couldn't finish his dinner we brought out the super 1kg cake. like D: AHHHHHHHH
yea traditional cake cutting ceremony accompanied by awful singing from sean (as usual) then hahah ask the waitress take photo take so long, the candles nearly burnt itself out. like 8-) how hard is it to take a photo?!
opps. okay we'll try again.
yAY oh and the cakes slanted cause she didn't want to cut her name like OKAY WHATEVER ahahaha so bimbo. D:
in the end, no matter how we stuff ourselves also cannot finish the cake. we managed to eat half of it though. quite an achievement. :D now rujun has to carry the 0.5kg cake around wheeeee :D
self proclaimed birthday girl. (:
with rujun (:
yea anw being band ppl, we couldn't decide what to do later, so after lagging around there for like half an hour, we decided to go fullerton one return andrea's stuff, then go clarke quay the minds cafe there actually, its quite the obvious choice what else do we do during late nights anyway -.-
yup reached clarke quay at like 11pm then played for like 2.5 hours. nothing much, just that today sean chia finally won taboo like YAY time to buy 4D liao. D:
mm then as usual we played till we got chased out cause they were closing. so yup out on the streets at 1.30am nothing to do, nowhere to go, we did what we always did. and stoned. (and thought up helpful suggestions) ernest suggested his house which is freaking pasir ris so no go. my house actually okay one just that nothing to do, and my parents sleep liao so uhhh can;t give them prior warning.
in the end they went home. and meijun and rujun went jiehao's house and uhh i followed too cause mr nice guy here decided that being alone in the same house, let alone same room, with rujun and meijun tgt sure feel damn paiseh one. so went there to pei jiehao loh. anw also got nothing to do at home (:
yea once again. the view from his house never fails to amaze me. his house is really like this damn tall building in the middle of nowhere. so can see like for damn far around. ahhhhhh :D
yea the view from his 33rd floor house. D:
-censored by popular demand- (actually its just 2 ppl)
yea in the end i ended up on the orange couch jiehao spread a groundsheet and slept cowboy style. contrary to what you see meijun and rujun didn't sleep here la. and they were in a more intimate position before we took this photo. jiehao has the photo, but leave them some dignity la. things aren't always as it seems (:
slept for like 2 hours plus then jiehao woke us up just in time for sunrise (: yay hahah v nice.
view from the balcony (:
oh but then mj and rujun came out to the balcony there. so we were relegated to the room there.
the view from inside his room. ):
yea then we went to walk around the place for breakfast at like uhh 8 la.
like among the white houses there ahhhh the place v nice. its like quiet and lots of old ppl not like mine la my place is like, deathly quiet and lots of dying ppl. the only time there's noise is when there're funerals. there're never weddings or what at my place. just funerals. plural.
anyway back from breakfast then mj and rujun went off while i'm staying over here later just go sengkang straight la team withdrew from summer league finals cause they all got blocks tmr. so me and daryl just go see see only lo.
-censored again yawn v mafan-
the only good thing abt army after enlisting, is that i've learnt to treasure the small things in life that we often take for granted and to always look on the bright side of life. bookouts and civilian life might be far and few, but at least outside there're great friends to make sure that your time spent outside is worth every bit the while (:

11.00am
this week life in camp has been. GREAT. monday attend c
tuesday book out for xray on back.
wednesday submit xray to MO got excuse 10 days rmj excuse 10 days heavy load.
and since its parade week some 40th SAR Anniversary actually its just to unveil the leopard tank only. (which came out in the papers D:) and i got super long status while the company goes out to practice parade and rehearse and stuff I SLACK IN BUNK :D :D :D
tadaaa! the damn cool leopard tank in front of the HQ block which happens to be where my bunk is also.
like wake up at 0530, breakfast, back to bunk, sleep, wake up, read books/monopoly/scrabble/risk/eat, sleep, lunch, back to bunk, sleep, read books/monopoly/scrabble/risk/eat, dinner and RO, back to bunk, read books/monopoly/scrabble/risk/eat, sleep at approx 2230 plus minus one hour. occasionally i'd clean up the bunk cause i felt so bad slacking while the rest were wasting their time at the parade.
oh and i cleaned the toilet too mainly cause i was forced to la ): cause i didn't kiwi my boots under the bed. and got caught during stand by area. but clean toilet, also fun la. me and the other status ppl much water, not so much cleaning. just splash splash around. :D:D:D
oh and digress a while thursday walao the apache helicopter landed in our parade square cause its part of the parade also la. wah wah wah super cool la :D:D:D aye but everyday (and night) need 2 sentries one on the right one on the left to guard the apache against sabotage so poor ppl have to do guard duty lo. BUT STILL D: DAMN COOL. okay random but :D
probably the only time i was pushed out of my comfort zone was when like we went to the parade as spectators ytd. then as usual, halfway through i fell asleep cause it was like really really boring. yea so when they all stood up to say the pledge i was the only one sitting down sleeping la like WTH HAHAHHAHHA so paiseh. my friend on the right never see me (for i dont know what reason la) then on my left was a staff seargent. dunno why also never wake me up. only halfway through some guy from behind tapped me then i was like WOAH! haha its either the ooc who's behind me, or the seargent major. let's hope its the ooc.
anyway i was like die die die. confirm stamp chop guarantee confined one. cause sleep in front of DPM and all the 2 star 3 star generals. panic panic panic. hahaha but in the end nothing happened. thankfully, but walao scared me for nothing. :D
cookhouse in the background! and the DPM (the one talking to my platoon) is surprisingly tall D:
mm and in other news. the OCTs are here alrdy! hahah on friday saw them spam the cookhouse. and got like super lot of hc ppl leh. got billy the basketballer, wenzhe, daryl (jijo) sean poh shiwei, weiguang (i think, not sure his name). and got my bmt bunkmate paul and bmt buddy louis :D:D:D
BUNKMATE PAUL.
AND BUDDY LOUIS. :D
since i had so much time to spare, talked with them over lunch hahahha aye so fun yay :D but can see la, after their torturous 3 months in ocs they've all changed. more serious and proper, not the carefree ppl i know anymore. not saying that they're not fun ppl la, but you dont wanna mess with them.
yea met kheexuan at the emart also i counted, including me they're 21 hc ppl i've met over here so far. so yay one big hwachong farmily :D because cider is the elixir of life

TELL ME THIS ISN'T A COW.
with 3 seconds left in taboo and just one freaking square away from winning its a decent looking cow okay. i didn't have to write big big C-O-W. anw sean guessed it a split second after 1 minute was up, so i guess IT SOMEWHAT RESEMBLES A COW.
anyway. haha ytd saturday book out again sian. but at least we booked out at 2pm. so got quite a bit of saturday left. (: went home, dumped my stuff, then lagged around till like 5pm. then went to meet sixjay who were at ecp cycling for dinnnnnnner at burger king. lynn chongchen jiehao zhiyi benny banana.
then yeaaa they went night safari and cause i didn't really feel like going to mandai like all the way at the north side of singapore, i went to meet the band ppl yay :D at dhoby gaut to uhh eat somemore. eheehehe :D:D:D
shengheng mj rujun sean weely cindy cheryl ernest. foodcourt-ed and then just like lagged around there talk rubbish until abt 10pm then we had to leave cause it was closing down and the auntie chased us out ):
anw the initial plan was to go minds cafe at princep street there go play board games till 3am. but then since it was totally packed and meijun felt like eating tau hueeeEEEYYYYY we went further down a bit to eat tau huey at the random back alley just like the last time :D only this time we got more civilised and sat upstairs in the aircon room instead :D
mmm then ate till the minds cafe ppl called us to tell us got space liao. like at abt 12mn like that. so yea mj cindy ernest went home. left me rujun weely sean cheryl yea and even though i was like damn sleepy can hahhaa. but still :D minds cafe games no need brain power one. just anyhow whack.
yeaaa anw more or less played the same games cause we didn't know new ones. and the guy like a bit too busy to come and teach us. so whateverrrr old games. and sean still sucks at taboo like wth. hahahah anyone that teams with him confirm 100% sure lose one.
on the left, is a giraffe on the right, is a platypus lizard. sean da vinci.

oh oh oh rujun lagi best. the word was "dessert" - rujun: just now you say that one! (camel) me:CAMEL. D: rujun:ya ya live where! me:EYGYT :D:D:D me:desert! desert! desert! i think at this point of time rujun realised he read wrongly. rujun:ADD S! ADD S! me:deserts....?
oh well. anw we played until closing time and they chased us out (again). stranded in the middle of nowehere at 3am in the morning. we uhhh went home hahha.

10.41pm
i hate saturday night bookouts there goes your weekend. the whole week, you look forward to.. ..a 24 hour civilian life.
saturday night me ernest cheryl went to draggggg sean and rujun out of their horn j1 j2 j3 outing. caining left earlier so didn't get to see her ): at first when sean asked me to crash the outing to pose as harapan, i was like, damn damn weird la. so i thought like bring in the flutes la so it'll be like flute section outing plus some random horn ppl around. but in the end aiyah. sheng heng and mj got class bbq chungyan got some musical backstage thing. so nyeahhhh i just called more band ppl along. then uhhh we went to swensens to eat. okay ernest ate. me and cheryl had ice creammmm :D:D:D yay ring-a-ding-a-lingggggggg
mmm then went to watch movie. okay transformers not out yet and then drag me to hell was like :O:O:O horror shows near midnight is like NO. HOW TO GO HOME AFTER THAT. i needa walk a damn long way home from the bus stop la. siao damn quiet and dark and lonely. will freak out one. then the ghost of my mother's boyfriends girlfriends past rujun watch liao. anyway only got front row seats left. okay la i wanna ooc, but ooc cause of a broken neck quite gruesome. scary la. so nope too (:
in the end we settled for land of the lost. and i regret it. to an extreme extent.
THIS SHOW SUCKS. please don't waste your money. its so so so fake. and the plot is like. dumb. after the show we were like totally sian diao la. zzz zzz zzz.
anw they didn't wanna stay out ytd night and i also sleepy la. tired. so we caught the last bus/mrt home. then sleep (:
basically just zhuo bo lan the whole night. but whatever. must make full use of the stupid limited time outside. so heck. just bluff myself a bit. it was a meaningful and great night out with the band ppl once again :D:D:D because cider is the elixir of life

2:34 AM O:
9.34am
hehehhe. i wasn't really late in the end. (: reached at abt 1.40pm ytd. in order of appearance: me sean ernest weely, sharine, sheng heng cindy, weiguo, meijun, cheryl, rujun
ayeeee in the end we didn't have sushi buffet for lunch. cause it was for weekdays only. so ): ): ): in the end we just went to changing appetites downstairs to uhhh eat and lag around. haha can't believe we just sat there for like 4 hours eating and playing bang. AND taking (unglam) photos of mj.
yea hahha after a while we nearly got chased out cause mj was making like super lot of noise la. so we graciously paid the bill and then we went to uhh walk around somemore. hahahah they wanted to watch drag me to hell. but thankfully it showed at 11plus only. (: night at the museum 2 a lot of ppl watch liao so also can't watch ): soooo in the end we decided to erm go eat more food haahahha. there's really nothing to do in sg la so sian one. :|
yup but being a saturday night stupid la whole of ms was totally crowded and packed la. all the buffet places either had super duper long queues, or had exhorbitant prices, or had unappetising food (aka hotpot culture) and we can't move anywhere else. cause ooc weely's on crutches. so can't move outside ms. or so he insists. only unless the girls go shopping then he's willing to walk somewhere else. and damn -.- la walao. the girls keep insisting we decide on what to do where to eat, and the moment we come up with something kwok meijun will go NOOOOO. and insist on watching hannah montana. like wtf wtf wtf i thought only like those small kids watched hannah montana la. D:
anyway a hungry man is an angry man so we finally decided (out of desperation) to go macs and grab a bite and lag there talk more rubbish until 9.30pm. THEN we go sakae have our supper buffet. :D:D:D
yea so we ended up at macs. played MORE bang. grabbed some food, allllll the way till 9.40pm then we ran up to sakae sushi to get our fix of jap food :D:D:D
no picture, so here's the like, rough seating arrangement. cindy sheng heng weely sean. conveyor belt. cheryl mj rujun me. conveyor belt. 8 ppl crammed into a 6 seating table, cause we didn't wanna split up. and omg i think we're damn zai la. within 5 mins of sitting down we finished like 22 plates of sushi. i counted okay i was quite amazed really. within 40 mins we made our money's worth. no thanks to the 10plus softshell crab handrolls ordered by sean chia. ya walao hahahha the ppl there damn insulting can. when they came to collect our used plates they came with a plastic box la wth like those tupper ware thingy 50cm x 30cm boxes you buy from the pasar malam. hahahahha i mean, yea eat a lot la, but give some face lehhhhh D:
yea and walao i think the ppl who sat closest to the conveyor belt damn kelian can. okay its just me and sean actually :D walao cause we sit closest, so we have to like order for the others and help them get their food and stuff so sean ordered like crazy, i took plates like crazy, then when the 4 girls at the other end of the table cannot finish the food (which is so so so typical walao) we have to finish for them cause sean's finger clicked the mouse cause my fingers grabbed the plate off the belt. wah really eat until can die la. think a bit more and sean'd be like rolling on the floor puking out his 6 handrolls and moaning in agony. okay la cannot beat rujun the shifu la. but at least his one is he order himself ma. walao he imba we all dying at one corner he still ordering like 6 plates of his dunno what disgusting slimy prawn/shrimp sushi hahahahah but okay la rujun helped to make our money's worth also. (:
walao its not that we wanna eat so much loh. its like cause we have to make our money's worth. like rujun said. $20.90 for supper?! yea so better eat more. and the girls down there dowanna eat don't wanna eat. then we help them make their money's worth loh. too nice alrdy la can't help it.
in the end after eating almost non-stop for almost 2 hours, we rolled out of sakae sushi. too full to do anything. forgot to take a grp photo. and ya we met ernest again right outside sakae. with his high school class. okay side issue but yea like hi ernest.
okay then rolled home at abt 12mn. yay SLEEP. walao too full la. just bathe then sleep liao. haha no energy to blog. wah super unhealthy lifestyle. later's match sure die one. roll roll roll around the field. :D because cider is the elixir of life

5:58 AM week #2
12.59pm
okay its 1pm and i'm supposed to like meet the band ppl at 1.30 @ city hall which is still achievable if i step out of my house atm. hohoho but i figured that everyone's gonna be late as usual so yay :D
second week of AI was slackkkk life is still good over at sungei gedong. morning wake up at 0530. no morning pt, breakfast at 0545. finish, come back, area cleaning. aka sleeeeep :D till 0730. then lessons till lunch at 1230. 1 hour break, so we chop chop finish lunch, then we go back and have an afternoon siesta. then more lessons till 1730. and then we have dinner and then RO and then its our free time.
yea its gonna be more or less like that for the first half of the 5 months. which isn't that bad really. the really bad part comes after that. for another 1/4 of the course. short, but possibly fatal. and then its taiwan for the remaining 1 month.
there's so much admin time. we have like 3 hours free time every night. i've finished watching all movies in my ipod. boring and too intellectual movies, the duchess and the changeling, but yea we're that bored. you see ppl sleeping at 8pm at night. there's really nothing else to do.
but still. i'm trying to get out as fast as i can. the staffs and seargents are nice. but the enciks are really. screwed up. when you have commanders telling you stuff like. if you think you can do it, but your mind tells you that you cannot do it, then you can do it. or hilarious quote-worthy stuff like please state the name and rank of the recruit. your really wonder why army is so indecisive and poorly managed.
at least when we come out there're the great people outside. ytd after bookout went with the band ppl ernest, me, sheng heng, rujun, cheryl to xin wang hongky cafe (again!) to have supper/dinner. had really really really nice porridge :D cheryl and sheng heng had rice. and ernest had papaya noodle soup. D: aye aye aye. then since cheryl had work today, and BOYFRIEND aka rujun AHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHA had to go sentosa with his army section today, we uhhh had to run to catch the last bus home. just dinner and catch up only la. but still heheheheh fun :D and sorry rujun (and mj) i couldn't resist hahahha i really LOL-ed quite badly :D:D:D
YUP ANW I GOTTA GO. I'M GONNA BE LATER THAN LATE. ITS 1.11PM. AND I'M HUNGRYYYYYYY. SUSHI BUFFET :D:D:D NOM NOM NOM :d
whatever happened to staying away from jap buffets for a damn long time. D: because cider is the elixir of life
