Tuesday was a half day of due to the election polling, book out on thusday due to a friday Macritche Treetop walk event.. and den sat book in once again for my Ndp rehersal.. can jooly well imagine hw mcuh i spend on my transportation..
Friday event was said to b a 9.5km walk but eventually i sure tat its more dan tat.. the distance up there was 9.5km.. and we make our way dw for at least another 4km b4 reaching the other meeting pt.. have no idea why there's such a event.. walking all the way up and cross teh 27m high bridge.. basically saw no monkeys at such a height.. instead caught alot whille making way dw to the last meeting pt.. was quite shag after all these walking.. but still went on wif our Kbox session.. lolx.. cant imagine them able to withstand my out of tune vocals.. aniway the 6 of us quite enjoy ourselves at the partworld @ orchard..
sat was the NDP rehersal and mi beind a reserve was made to stand in for someone in the first row.. and of coz my drills was not of the standard.. basically there's nth good in being the 1st row.. the onli perk is abe to get a good view of the guard of honour firing the shot and the formation of flags.. AWESOME..
rush to friend 21st bday chalet after the rehersal.. spend some time looking for the chalet due to alighting at the wrong chalet.. zz..
caught X-men 3 wif them on sunday.. AWESOME effect.. wif many twists.. good storyline.. unlke tat of last 2 sequences of X-men.. tas ends my week.. and i quite like such a week.. like it happen more.. esp the book in and out.. wahahaha..

Double O
for the first time the NDP rehersal ended at 7pm!!!! its realli tiring to stand motionles for such a long period of time.. a least for 45 mins.. and tats doesnt include those MP and arrival of President.. wads thrills mi in the rehersal is the firing of the guard of honour.. they simply makes the atmosphere real awesome..
rush to Cathay to catch Poseidon.. sinking of a ship.. missed the 1st 10 mins and after hearing a few sentences of conversation, the big wave came and the ship sank.. "P at least i din miss the great part..
being in the navy, came to know those terms which they use.. turn to portside and starboard..
somhw the movie was like tat of the many awards winner Titantic.. xcept tat its not more towards romance but towards teamwork which help to their survival.. form the movie one can see the love of mother to her son.. the love of father to his daughter.. a realli thrilling movie..
proceed dw to double O for clubbing.. my 2nd clubbing in my 20 yrs of life.. felt tat my 1st clubbing at MOS is of a better place coz there's more dance floors and the music is nicer.. but one of the best thing abt Dobule O is tat their shot are priced at $3.. veri afforable price unlke tat in MOS which is a height of $9.5..havign juz booked out, i have my bag wif mi.. cant xpect mi to dance wif my bag and being a bit lazy to Q up to the 2nd storey to deposit my bag, i juz 'hide' my bag under one of their sofa.. worried tat someone may juz throw it away, every nw and then will keep a lokout on my bag. lol.. danced and sat till they closed up for the day and had bak kut teh b4 gg hm.. been some time since reached hm at ard 5 plus. wad a day of feet movement-- dancing and marching..

was informed tat wif the reharsel for NDP and on-job training for my vocation thrown in, my course will end at ard 1 dec... it doesnt take a great mathematic to realise tat there's still at least 6 more mths and it less dan 10 months to my ORD.. wad the use of a lon term training when they gg to use your skill for onli 9 mths..
and do they xpect mi to remember all those repairing skills when i doing my reservist..
1 more Month away from my 21st birthday!!! YEAH.. hinted to my course commander tat i wanted to ake the day off but he replied tat SAF has no rule tat u are allowed to take leave for such occassion.. do they have the heart to destroy a young boy 21st birthday by asking him to spend it in camp... lol.. aniway i gg to 'fan' 'fan' 'fan' him till i get a veri satified answer which of coz is benefical to mi...

wad a morning
since i was inloved in the NDP, was entitled to Monday night book in.. but due to the adding of programmes into our time table, has to get dw back to camp for my ippt.. slept at 3 and woke at 5.. bascially the mrt journey from jur to tanan merah was mi sitting dw leaning my head against the side panel zzz away....
hw am i in good condition to run wif onli a 2 hrs of NAP!!! so upon reaching there, told the pti tat i'm being excused by MO for running and home i headed... YEAH!!!
means tat i spend a 3 hr plus journey to there and back.. wd a waste of time..
tink the goverment or should say Mindef should remiburse our transportaton fees, esp those staying far away from camp.... i.e. pple like mi staying in jur and has to go to other side of Singapore juz to bk in..

the FA cup
have no idea why am i being a NSF is involved in the NDP.. a total burn of my half saturadys for the next month and mayb the whole of saturdays when National Day approaches..
caught FA cup final. can say tat its a ver awesome match.. awesome goals created by both teams.. be it from 40 yards long curve or 30 yards straight shot.. but best goal of the match jus has to come from West Ham Konchesky.
somehw history almost repeats itself --last season CHamp Leg.. onli tiz time is btw liverpool and West Ham .. Liverpool dw wif 2 goals and make a came back wif Gerrard once again.. throughout the whole of 90 mins they are not the ones leading the match.. somehw or the other they managed to equalised at the veri last last min... and wif Renia being the other saviour of Liverpool who managed to deny 3 shots from West Ham during th penalty showdw..
Liverpool won the cup but believe tat the great effort and tactics displayed by West Ham won the hearts of many.. u can say its a win-win situation...

MY kinDa of Life
almost a month since i lasted blog.. mayb the surprises navy offered mi xplained it.. my surprise for the month is being informed my alr low allowance is being reduced to another lowest rate.. $350 per mth.. due to my new vocation(repair speed boat machine) cant our smart government think tat wif a 'sum' of $350, its hard to survive in tiz full of temption in entertainment(movies, food) and highly cost country.. tink there's a nid to readjust my spending and everything.. and they say the navy personnel are paid well.. guess it onli applies to those regulars.. and onli for a few yrs, mind you..
another surprising fact is tat a 3m diving board takes real courage to jump.. zzz.. due to the many faults i made duing the jump.. was asked to jump 2 more times.. zzz
and my first jump took almost a min wif many 'wait, wait..', 'i nid time'.. lolx...
was shown to my actual working place ytd and as many said, its a place whereby newbi are bullied.. big fish eat small fish.. gues have to stick to such fact tat in the navy, such politics applied 2..
