Baileys!

Proudly present e twin towers!

Lol, I finally got my 2nd bottle from shi yan, complimentary from him! Thanks man! Had dinner at Crystal jade just now with shiyan, siqi & nicholas, as usual, full of crap talks with some serious stuffs. Think its kinda confirm that I will be going Melbourne in June next year, most probably booking my air tickets next month, anyone wants to join? Haha, it will be fun..

Sian, my past few sales are quite bad, didnt manage to hit e first tier, looks like e fate of my branch in Queensway has been decided. The high rental cost plus e dwindling sales doesnt seem to justify our stay there & e fucking landlord just wouldnt budge a single bit on e rental amount, hai.. Next projected branch location -> Choa chu kang, must be a relieve to some people :) Anyway, I have quite a no. of ipods on sale, most of them used ones.

Used ones

• Ipod nano(2GB)-$130
• Ipod nano(4GB)-$180
• Ipod nano(8GB)-$300
• Ipod video(30GB)-$260
• Ipod video(60GB)-$380

All of them comes with one data cable & one earpiece, let me know if you are interested :)

Kuishin-bo!

Yeah, went to Kuishin-bo (I thought it was spelt kushinbow) with xiaoyi, pradeep & his girlfriend last night. Lol, we were supposed to meet at 730, but everyone was late; I reached at 8pm, xiaoyi 815pm & pradeep 830pm. So we had e dinner buffet & it was a hugh spread, got spider crabs! Mochi! Tempuras! Soft shell crabs & unagi! My favourite!! I think I ate at least 5 pcs of it, hee... Both of e 2 idiots were new to this restaurant, in fact, pradeep only had his first prawn last year when he was in BMT.

Hence, I had to orientate them about e food; pradeep was e worst, he didnt even know it was a squid( I cooked up a name "fu-shin") when I passed one to him & he really thought it was called "fu-shin", omg... Luckily his girlfriend know about it, oh ya, she's a japanese! Can you imagine an indian having a japanese girlfriend? Ya, most of us will be saying 'wtf', especially beng? Lol.. Actually, it was only my 2nd visit to e restaurant. The first time I went was like 5 years ago with terrence? Wa, thats damn long ago. Hai, I wanted to bring joyce here that time, but I always forget about it, Zzzz.. Anyway, after dinner, brought xiaoyi to Paulaner had a drink. My stomach was very full, nearly couldnt finish e 0.5 litre dark munich. Thats it for yesterday.

Sian, got to prepare for recall tommorow, hope that its not this weekend.

Past few days..

Staying in tonight! In e comfort of my office, air-condition, with internet access, what more can you ask from army? I rather be at home lo, Zzzzz. Just that got too much work to do, thats why I'm staying in. Anyway, went for a 2 day 1 night outfield at Lim chu kang on tuesday. Well, it was a good experience to see a battalion going into operational mode & how they fight a battle. Hehe, I had my fair share of fun too; walking in e jungle without any light source(I didnt bring my specs too -.-), sliding down slopes, fell on my back a few times(need to thank my mum that I have a good landing cushion;my butt) & seeing sunrise on top of a hill. I was damn shag even before e exercise cut, I had walked with e battalion from 12 midnight till 11am e next day, cos I had to follow my S2 who is one of e umpires. I went MOS straight after I reached home, lol.. Hmm, it was good in e beginning, saw huien, got to apologise to her. Then met up with joel & sining. As for e latter part, I didnt really enjoy; kept being visited by 'aliens'. Damn marcus, he was e main culprit la! Should have went Zouk instead. Arrr.. Seems like being only e 'single' one in makes me an odd one out. I had flashback of e fateful night that I met you, words were starting to form at e back of my mind & I was already reaching out for my phone.

But I held back..

Burnout..

Just had my haircut, e usual style, still have to keep it this way till march next year. I had a great afternoon; sleeping away, haha.. It is quite rare to see me sleeping at home on Sunday; all thanks to e person who planned my HQ guard duty list. Supposed to be doing my duty now, somehow, it was cancelled & no one informed me about it. So, I rushed down in e morning (overslept, reached home at 4am from Zouk) in a cab, reported straight to e guardhouse. Somehow, something was amiss, I was e only one from HQ drawing arms, but I brushed it aside, lol.. Slept in e guardroom till 12pm, then I realised, no one asked me to go for duty. Great, I finally realised something was amiss, a check with e clerk confirm e mistake. Arrr, wasted my whole morning in camp, Zzzz.

Yesterday was fun; burnt my pockets too. Afternoon, went down to Vivocity to shop for a present & some new clothes. It was arranged to meet up at 130pm, but beng reached there at 230pm, typical of him :) Got a new pair of jeans at G2000 & a shirt from River Island (I kept referring it as river island) , then we went over to Zara. Then, I got a purple top & a tin of cinnamon mango chocolate (Quite nice, consider e fact that I dont like chocolates. Can get it from chocolate factory) for sharon's birthday present. Ya, Beng's female friend met up with him, she was also shopping for gifts, for her boyfriend's birthday. Isnt is sweet? But thats one of e reasons why I'm not celebrating this year. Anyway, she seem quite compatible for beng, thing is that, she's already attached for 4 years. Dont worry, you can do it! No, I'm not encouraging him to be e 3rd party, there are always greener pastures elsewhere.

Night was great, met up with sharon, qinyi & jieqi for dinner; it was like desserts only. It was like a pre celebration for sharon & she looked great, hehe..Everyone had ice cream too! It was girls' talk most of e time, even my rings & watch were not spared from their comments, its still nicer to wear on 2 separate fingers. Then we headed down to Zouk! But qinyi left when we reached there, cos suntan more important lo.. Hehe, I teamed up with jieqi in advance to make sharon drink. I drank e most in e end, kept losing scissor paper stone to jieqi, wtf.. Joel joined us shortly, cos I told him "I got 2 female friends with me", kidding la. He broke me a bad news; just broken up with his girlfriend & is now with... Siqi's sister. My apologies to huien, that time shouldnt have introduce them when I bumped into sining at MOS, didnt expect things to turn out like this, really sorry, hai.. Siqi joined us in e later part, after e impromptu company's meeting at Pasir ris which I didnt go.

Cos I told them one week in advance that I wouldnt be free in e weekends. Zouk was playing trance by DJ Andy Moor. Much to my amazement, sharon told me she like it! & she was clearly enjoying it. Haha, welcome to e state of trance! To think that several months ago, trance made her felt dizzy when she was listening to one that I sent her :0 Danced all e way till 4am! Damn tiring, but it was fun!

Easy?

THE KEY TO SUCCEEDING IN MARRIAGE IS NOT FINDING THE RIGHT PERSON; IT'S LEARNING TO LOVE THE PERSON YOU FOUND.

Well, it is always easy to say.

Problem solved!

Wee.. I managed to get e SATA hard disk detected! What is needed is just a Floppy disk loaded with e relevant SATA drivers & boot it up when they asked for SCSI & RAID drivers. Swee la, I can use e Fujitsu 6311 liao, going to sell away my T43 soon!
Finally met up with Terrence yesterday night, cos e last time we went out was like 8mths ago? Somemore it was his birthday then, lol.. Went to eat dinner at Sushi Tei, ate one very nice dish, but I forgot e name, hehe. It goes like "mango prawn roll"? Lol, cant remember. Then we chilled out at Wala-wala, had Hoegarden. Poor chap, his Mazda 3 just got stolen recently, apparently it was done by one of his staff. So, he got another, a new Hyundai Advanti. Seems like his company is picking up & doing quite well, but he's been facing alot of problems with one of e shareholders, human r/s, thats e hardest to solve. Hopefully, there wouldnt be much things to do this week & I will be shuttling in/out of various camps for my exercises.
Sian, I feel like going for a holiday!

Act of god

Arr!!!.. I lost some important data!!

Feeling Poor..

Great, I have been making "donations" this week.
Total amount: $174; fucking shit.

Monday: My AHM donation card was stolen with my $12 inside; I donated it myself. Stupid thing was that, it was stored inside a locked metal cabinet. Curse those hands who took it..

Tuesday: Went down to cmpb pay $50 for my 11b which was stolen with my wallet 2mths ago. Why I have to pay? Cos e investigating officer said it was due to my negligence _!_

Thursday: New AHM donation card. I donated my $12 AGAIN. ($12 is e minimum to raise, cant explain further more)

Saturday: a used Nokia N73 was supposed to be sold at $370, I wrote $270 on e receipt. I paid e difference, song! That guy must be damn happy. I shouldnt have work lo, as I always make it a point not to work on saturday, guess it proven itself.

Arghhh... I missed e Hokkaido fare, I want to eat scallops! Ran my 1st 12km run in ECP on friday & e view there is great; lots of motivation around you. Especially when you feel shag, just take a good look at e surroundings, it might spurn you on? Hehe.. Shit, I dont remember what I did on friday night. Saturday, crap day, especially e $100 loss. At night, kena tua by siqi, at first say going to drink, so I didnt bath. Then half an hr later, say going to Zouk, so I went to bath lo. After changing into my fresh clothes, he changed his mind again, eventually we settled at Paulaner. Bad choice, before then I was.. Wrong, e past few days I have been thinking about her.
So, I made e wrong move again. Ya pig, thanks for confusing me with those sms, Zzzzz...
Lately, I've been... I also dont know how to put it in words.
Nevermind, I'm looking forward to meet 2 new babes, if not just one; One baileys caramel & one absolute 100 :)

Thoughts, stupid ones though

Its still there.
I passed by it yesterday.
& e tape started to roll again.

"My friend is waiting there for u, faster come over!"
I was walking towards it, half expected that was something fishy about it.
On reaching, I had a very nice surprise, a sweet one too. Come to think of it, it is really one of e best moment in my life. Though it was a simple durian strudel, I just cant stop smiling & laughing whenever I think of it. Too fast, 3.5 years just passed by me, great.

Was having dinner with shih yesterday, she was craving for e beehoon from e famous stall in commonwealth. Well, I wasnt hungry, but nothing much to do, so went with her. Lol, I couldnt resist e temptation, end up eating a big plate of beehoon with cabbage & 2 chicken wings. My 8km run in e morning literally wasted on it, Zzzz. We were walking to e bus stop, when I noticed that e pavilions were still there, I thought they were tore down when e area was undergoing ungrade. Yup, they were e ones who stirred up e records in my mind. It isnt an excuse, cos I dont really think much of those things nowadays. In fact, most of e time I'm preoccupied with my work & most importantly, FUN.. I was waiting for a bus in e evening, saw an old couple, most probably in their fifties? It was kinda sweet, he was cycling & his wife was on e back seat clinging on to him & holding a basket of roses. It made me wondered, since everyone has a choice to their decisions, then why is it that most of e time, we end up with e wrong choices? & e funny thing is, most of e time we choose to stick with it? Lol, so it isnt a matter of whether it is right or wrong? But whether you can accept it or not? I agree with that, to a certain extend. Cos my wrongdoing wasnt an acceptable one, arrrr...

I just wana lie on e beach, plug in e earphones, ipod in my hand & watch e night sky..alone..

Fuck..I already wrote e post le, somehow, e system fucked it up. ZZZZZzzz, I go sleep liao!

Jailed..

Great..I'm going to be stuck in camp for one month, but I cant write e details here :) Listen to e song "who will find me", especially e ending part..

Was at Paulaner yesterday, met up with marcus & james for drinks. End up drinking 3 x 0.5l of dark munich, lol.. Somehow, I miss her presence when I was over there, I just dont feel right about it, haha, whatever.. Back home, some idiot was still online doing assignment, guess you skipped school today huh? Lol, msn nudging wouldnt wake a person up, but i appreciate it :p

I'm still trying to reduce uncertainties..

ISC outing!

Dont you feel good when you are greeted with a nice sunrise e moment you stepped out of e house?










Finally, I have become an intelligence specialist! Haha, nothing special, just that I going to get my sergeant rank real soon. Time really flies & my course has come to an end! Really enjoyed myself with this bunch of jokers for e past 1 month, will miss the morning breakfast with them & especially their cold lame jokes! Even for this picture, they purposely did e handsign (not my handsign) because of e wallpaper in my mobile phone.
Had a whole day outing with them yesterday. Afternoon was spent 'Dotaing' with them, fun, cos our common aim was to kill one of e players who always boast about how good he is, whom I owned in e end... Haha, lots of shouting too! Songbo was e most commonly used one; started by me :) Dinner was at Suntec's Soup restaurant, its my 1st visit there & I thought they only sell soup, wahahaha.. Eventually, we ordered a 8 person set meal & e food is good! Especially e Samsui ginger chicken, hope I got e dish name correct :p ---> a definite must try. As we were proceeding to e taxi stand after e dinner, I saw jolyn, but couldnt confirm whether it was her. So I made a call, but there was no answer. Lol, she called back after I hung up & we sort of decided to meet up. By then, I was like 200m away? So started to run back to e place I first saw her, luckily she was walking towards my direction too. Come to think of it, its been like 3-4 years since I last saw her, still e same as ever, except that she is much more thinner now. Nothing much to say, its always e same old questions; as in e ones I asked when I meet those whom I seldom keep in touch.
ZOUK!!! First time, e air was so fresh! Not a single whiff of smoke! Haha..I think all e non-smokers are glad to hear that? 2 of my coursemates were new to Zouk, one never clubbed before, e other cute lo, got go clubbing before, but never to MOS & Zouk, Zzzz. Nonetheless, I was once again e OL (not Office lady); orientation leader & I brought them to Phuture; our table was at Zouk. Lol, initially I wanted to wack them with Long island tea, but there was an ongoing promotion for Macallan whisky, so got that instead. Haha, it was hilarious to see them kept being forfeited, totally lost for words & e stun look on their face. Then it was red wine, grins~ By then, another 3 joined us from Zouk, I asked them to buy Long island tea! Haha.. They didnt know e effects ma, because....5 out of 5 never drank it before! Imagine their expressions, drinking a half glass of Long island tea,arrr.. Grins~ again! Dancing time, brought them to e dance floor. Okie la, they were quite decent though they were high liao, but all of them were on e lookout for chiobu. Soon, e rest(e reservist group) joined us, but after 15mins we left for Zouk, cos e old boys said Phuture too crowded & e music not to their liking. Lol, dont know when I will become like them too. Rest of e night was at Zouk & they were playing trance! Sweet.. & I down 5 shots of 'illusion' - pineapple juice with vodka, if I'm not wrong. Tiring night, I nearly fell asleep when I was leaning against e wall, that was around 230am liao. In e end, left 7 of us & in e typical guys way of doing things, we squeezed inside one car, went over River valley to have supper!

Great night!

Moody now..

Arr..my left eye is damn swollen now, fuck, dont even know how I got it. I only noticed it when it started to itch. Great, my course will be coming to an end later, most probably be dismiss before noon, then will be laning, followed by dinner, lastly Zouk with my coursemates. ZZzzz, no mood to carry on writing, I only can partially open my left eye now, bek cek ar!

Communication

Wee..I'm at home, just came back from e clinic, was having 'diarrhea' , haha.. Damn, my throat havent recovered fully yet, still got lots of phelgm, but still better than last week, when blood was contained in e phelgm. Went Ikea on sunday to get my martini glasses, it was a quickie thing, grabbed & go, cos I was working, hee. Then I remembered shiyan wanted to buy it too & he seem quite 'BUSY' now? So got a different set for him.
Monday, took my final papers for my current course. Before that, was a dedication parade for SAF day which happens to be on e 1st of July, because of this shit, I had to wake up at 530am, Zzzz. As usual, I was very sleepy & I fell asleep standing when e colonel was giving e SAF day speech. Must be due to my 'driving' schedule, I managed to do that in a standing position & was awaken by e next command after e speech, lol.. After e parade, we were hurried to a hall to take e papers, but e lights in e middle row werent working. After a delay of 30mins, we were told to carry on without a change of room, wtf.. Halfway thru I fell asleep again! -.- Luckily, my staff sergeant was around & he woke me up, haha..I managed to finished it on time!
Anyway, I saw this article in one of e magazine on good communication, check it out.

The Four A's of Good Communication

1. ATTENTION. To get the receiver's respect, show emphathy, & aim to overcome all distractions like disturbing mannerisms, unusual dress, & personal or emotional problems.(Hmm, seems like I have this problem, rofl..)
2. APPRECIATION. It is crucial e communicator ensures a positive reception of e message. Encouraging free-flow input from e receiver is a good way to do so. (Yeah, free flow liquer)
3. ASSMILATION. Appreciaition alone is not enough. A person may understand a message but not accept it fully. Communication is only complete if e recipent assimilates e information, absorbs it, & uses it.
4. ACTION. This final step is what drives theory into reality. Very often, a good idea is met with superficial acceptance & is not translated into action. The two-sided nature of communication comes into play here, as e originator of e message gives further follow-up, support & encouragement.

Hehe, this entry should have been posted earlier but I was too tired for e past 3 days, e moment I hit e pillows, I sure fall asleep within a minute; or even faster? Well, I hope this segment will help some out there who got communication problems like me. I go eat maggie mee liao~!

So early again..

I made it! 3 consecutive saturday nights back home before 11pm! Neh, I will rather be outside now; be it a talk cock session or movies! But am very tired too, lol...The past 3 days I have been sleeping really really early; 3am-4am. Thursday & friday were e worst in camp, once e first lesson starts, 1st 5mins I will be fighting Zzz monster, e next 5mins, driving--> when people doze off, they tend to sway; mine is from left to right, right to left, get it? Besides learning how to drive, I also learnt how to stay awake. How? Because of e 1st lame joke session that I started, everyone started to say lame jokes every now & then. Most of them are downright funny, after hearing it, sure cant sleep one, cos I kept laughing...
Yesterday night, went Zouk with siqi, another one full of crap, must be due to his work. Zzz, kept on telling me ' wear this shirt got feeling leh' FYI, that is my shirt, still say my shirt all bengish... In Phuture, bumped into a few of our secondary schoolmates, didnt see all of them for a long time liao, some become more chio, some look older, while some still look chui as ever. It was damn hot, so around 1pm, both of us went out to have some fresh air. Lol, saw alot of 'wa' girls(chui one) & only one 'wow' girl( e type whom makes you tink you are e most fortunate guy in e whole world; if u have her :) Somehow, it wasnt a happy night of clubbing, cos I made a friend of mine cried; indirectly. Well, at least she knew e truth, but still, it isnt worth it to cry over that? Hai, I have no idea why some people just have to hide from their partners that they are clubbing, no basic mutual respect for each other? I know la, everyone wants to have a night of fun, but no harm telling right? Unless you have some ulterior moves -.- It hurts alot when e truth is out. Hope things arent that bad for you..
Went to watch Transformer just now & shiyan brought his aussie 'girlfriend' along. Haha, it will be good if he has a gf, will just complain directly to her, opps.. The show super nice, I rate it 5 stars! Reminds me of e cartoon series, I used to follow it religously :) Dinner was katong laksa, otak & rojak! No joke, its my 1st time eating katong laksa in Katong, lol. Then I was abandoned at my block downstairs, cos shiyan having a date with e aussie girl, awww...( I can imagine e sly smile on his face now), evil. My throat still hurts, cough out phlgem with blood in e morning, too heaty liao. Thanks to e advice from an idiot who scolded me when I drank red date tea, I got leng yong instead, supposed to bring down e heatiness in e body. I want to eat icecream too! e oatmeal one from B & J! Think I should go & sleep liao, have been fighting e Zzz nonster when I started this entry...
