the eve of CNY

ytd is my book out day..
the day of my camp offical opening ceremony..
was the spectator at the grand stand..
presume tat its a rather major ceremony coz
the pple witnessing are of rather high ranks...
there's the many high ranking soldiers
from diff countries..
there's the 2 star Chief of Naval..
the minister for defence.. Teo sth de..
and the 3 star Chief of Defence...
zzz.. has the mindset tat the highest
rank in S'pore is onli 2 star..
was stunned to see the presence of the 3 star...

been doing lots of cleaning in the camp..
cabins where the GOH will pass by has to b clean and
clear of dust..
teh pavement where he shall walk has to b free from stains..
almost all of the trainees has been deployed to
clear the dead leaves and mop the corridors..
so much work for jzu the arrival of a person...

aniway got the long weekend + P.H to look forward
so i should b greatly joyous..
its seems to b such a flawless P.H

but the sth tat makes it nt so perfect
is the interference of the
guard duty which falls on the 1st day of CNY
which disrupts the
continuous of the many days of public holidays ..

ah... !!! seems tat there's nth tats always perfect..

MOS

Throughtout the week, tink i onli enjoyed last night most..

was in camp for a total of 5.5 days..
this week let mi realise tat our Mdm are realli
upset wif us..
threatened us wif all sorts of confinements..
threatening us to double tat of the confinement
recommand by the CPl and instructor..

ought to book out on Friday..
but someone PSP was kena stolen by an inconsiderate thief..
every1 cabinet was ransacked..
like most cases, stolen tool was nt found..
(which guy would put stolen tool in their own cabinet. zz)
resulted Mdm to confine us throu the Friday night...

the long awaited maiden clubbing for mi happened ytd..
the newly opened MOS.. Ministry of Sound..
entrance tix ought to b $15..
but got mine for $10 ..
compliments to a frien's tix and tw suggestion for buying tat tix..
Q started at ard 9pm....
caught the first sight of MOS interior design
close to 1030pm..
and behind us there's still a long Q..

first 20 mins or so in the club was spent scouting ard..
some of the patrons are smoking heavily..
as if smoking their life away..
and many of the women are welly dressed..

in the club
there's the whitely decorated PURE room...
whereby there's bean bags and sofa to lie on when
you are beat from the dance..
but all of the seats are reserved..

there's a room wif a retro dancefloor..
a main dance floor near the entrance..
and a room whereby its R&B
presume its call Smoove or Moove..

choose whiskey coke as my free drink
sort of tink it unique and hard to buy it at stores..
and i tink know i know why..
coz its quite a terrible drink..
one of the worse from the drinks
my friends ordered..

chose the R&B room as the main dancefloor for us..
many many pple are dancing to their hearts in the cage..
quite creative of them to use the cage to separate
the dancers and the drinkers..
(or mayb tat is the same in every club..?)

danced till ard 2 plus before
dragging my tiring legs to Mac for supper..
guess mayb tats wad expected from a 1st time
clubber.. a few hrs of dancing and has to rest..
but at least realli enjoyed my maiden clubbing..

Sonado

it means Dreamer in spanish...
a movie which juz airs in the cinema a fw days...
not much media xposure on tiz movie..
not consisting of big shot actors..
not an action pack movie..
nor iz it a humor or romance movie..

more of a dialogue movie wif many touching scences..
based on true story..
Dona Fanning.. a born natural young actress..
and i mean realli young..
first saw her act in War of the World..
Tom Cruise daughter.. alr create a stir wif her acting skills
since den...
tink its put to the task when she is the main actress
in tiz movie.. Dreamer
abt a horse.. a gal's love for her..
and a championship...

a movie which earns its merits thru word of mouth
a movie which i believe can touch your heart..
though somehw it lets mi tink of another movie..
SeaBiscuit.. another based on true story
movie of an injuried horsie
who 2 became a champion horse..

nv xpect so many horses has the will
to be a champion after a bad injuiry..
if horses has the will to climb up from where they fall..
why not us... juz believe we can do it...
remember rading tiz quote..
the world will laugh when we laugh
but they will laugh louder when we cry..
so why cry.. unless you are overjoy...

Regimental

The Naval called it the regimental guard duty
whereby evryone has to do a guard duty on
1 of the stated day...

Since everyone has to do 1..
i have no complaints..
but our platoon are required to
do the duty on the Chinese NEW week!!!!!
and i am required to do on the 1st day of Chinese New Year..
DA NaiN Chu Yi...

the naval always talk abt tradition...
its their tradition for tiz and tat..

to do duty on Chinese New Year,
its also 1 of their tradition.. and
they has derprived of my tradition of not working on
1st day of Chinese New Year..

Brand New Year

Countdw at Mt Faber...
but where's the 10,9,8,7....1
where's the shouting of Happy New Year...
coz everyone was amuzed by the sky symphony fireworks..

wads unxpected was at the same time..
from the hill-top, fireworks from the'Durian' and from HF
can b viewed.. thus everyone was shuffling from tiz pt to another
to catch the FW from both areas...

by foot up the hill
follwed by
an hr plus of wait
for tiz 15 min FW...
somehw felt tat National Day FW is more 'zhai'
mayb coz the FW seems real far from the hill-top..
but at least it marks the end of 2005 and start of 2006..

before the end of 2005..
had one of the most expensive drink..
a $4 Voda Voda Mineral water..
mayb the water is collected from the spring of the hill
which explains the price of the drink..
lolx..

meant to have a 10 pple party..
onli 7 turned up..
5 went for fireworks and evenutally onli 3
proceed to city for more fun....
(though not realli fun coz nth much to do)
some proceed hm.. some to other
more happening areas...

Many energentic pple can b spotted in Orchard..
couples, groups of pple are filling the path of Orchard..
wif $10, a drink and the dance party is open to you
in the front of Ngee Ann city..
but the bed at hm seems more attractive..
listening to the loud music from the dance party
and an entertaining dance by some Blanga..
(they realli attracts pple, even the police)
b4 proceed to the bus stop for NR..

here comes the best part of new Year
which is sure memorable for mi..
it was a wait of NR 5 and 8 mini story..

mostly a wait of 1/2 hr for the bus..
but guess wad...

it eveutally turns out to b an 2 and 1/2 hr wait!!!!!(u didn read it wrongly.. i didn wrote it wrongly..
its 2 and 1/2 hr wait)
from 230 am till 5am!!!!!!!
tink all friends has reached hm and slept soundly
by tiz time alrd..

involved and witnessed
many encounters throu tiz time...
goes to show tat within a short time
many things can happen...

1a) din spot ani friends from countdw area to orchard area..
but spotted 2 army friends respecetively
and a colleague at the bus stop
during the 2 plus hr wait..

b) they came way later dan mi yet broaded
their bus much earlier!!!!

2) in the midst of 2 and 1/2 hr...
witness at least 10 NR1 bus passed by...
witness 3 NR8 fully packed..
witness 3 NR5 fully packed...
and other weird bus numbers...

3a) as waiting time reaches 2 hrs..
u can spot from the crowd..
who are waiting for the same bus as you..
and they indeed broaded the same bus..

b) went to a 7-11 along the route to PS..
to get a drink...
walked back to continue the wait for NR
and the pple which i presumed
waiting for the same bus were still there...

4) intend to take NR5 hm
but when the wait proceeds till 4am, decide
to have Big Breakfast at West mALL 24 hrs Mac..
goes to show tat the long wait can made 1 hungry and
a tot to go hm for sleep can change
to having an early breakfast..

5) evenutally a packed but still can squeeze
few passenger NR8 came.. broaded the bus and heard
an open conversation...
the bad frquency of the bus make an ANg Mo
pretty fed up..
coz he was asking the number of SBS from bus driver...
so tat he can complain???
but the bus driver said tat he's not from SBS but TIBS...
in the end the Ang Mo also din broad the bus
coz its too pack..
and tink he didnt manage to get the number from the driver..
since he cant get on the bus..
driver suggest there's still the 'most-poppular' NR1
(the frq is reali high compare to other buses add together)
but the Ang Mo say he dun wan go to Yishun..
he wan to go to BB...
tats why he's waiting for NR8.. lolx...
forget hw the conversation ends..
somehw it appears to b an interesting conversation..

6) witness an encounter which i labelled it as
'Purple and Orange'..
(dun wish to tell more.. lol)
