Very long time no blog!~!~ (Part II)

Halo, i am back for more happenings for my past weeks... heez, you all didn't expect 2 event to take my entire 2 weeks or so right... Anyway after that trip, the entire week from there was WORK, WORK and more WORK !!! as we prepared for OCS commissioning parade and Change of Guard parade which took place on Saturday and Sunday respectively... weekend burned...



This are some of the things that we do during out free time during ocs rehearsals, we had to wake up and fall in at 645 and rush to SAFTI, then wait for time of the rehearsals and everything, this are taken during our free time and here are some of the nice ones... heez.... first is joel with his ever so "rocker" pose... lolx... looks to me like he wants to be the next singapore idol or someting... heez.. zhixun with a self pic, shuai ma?? Lastly kris trying to squeeze a dimple out of wen xiong's face... it was wen xiong last ocs parade before clearing leave for ORD... haha this big guy is always doing nonsensical stuff, there is always a good laugh when this guy is around... haha going to miss all the crap from this big fella...




Here is the scenes before the actual OCS parade on saturday... heez... as the OCT (Office Cadet Trainees) make last mins preparation for thier last parade as OCT, we manage to take a few pics during our tuning session... that is me with jin cheng, the speculating next ang wen xiong, as he can be as blur as ang at times and make pple laugh in a different way... fun guy heez.. pple show the devil's horns man.. a salute to the rockers... but look strange when done with a smile yah, dun u tink... heez... but its wonderful moments lah...

Now let move on to Changing of Guards, COG in short, happens once every first weekend of the month. It rotates around for the band who gets to march down orchard, and i guess that was the last time this year our band get to do the honor...



Here are some scenes before the actual parade itself... First is Paul, nasser and myself, the admin personnel of Band A, heez, i am the newly appointed, the other 2 are the OLD BIRD... still learning the skills from them, and they are already throwing everything to me already... haiz.. heez.. Next up is a pic of me with arvin and ang, their last parade before clearing leave, haiz... both talented percussionist, with them gone there is sure to be a percussion crisis... arvin is the brains behind all the drum solos for parade such as this one... salute man.. i like the last one... its a symbol we create for andy (aka ba chor, third from left) due to his recent obsession with protien shake, determine to have a bodybuilder figure by january... heez... all the best lah....



Like every COG, seniors that have already ORD will sure come down and support, this is no different... heez... In the center we have kok wee and kenneth, who apparently is the clone, or the replacement of kok wee after he have left as they both possess similar characteristic, he is know as "kok wee the second" some might even say... heez... then we have 2 talented flautist on the left, anneson and bernard, both in ntu now... heez... great frens now that they have graduated... feel weird calling them seniors actually when come to tink of it, we are of the same age... then we have alvin, farnie guy, still looking the same... heez.. the pic look like he was part of the parade too right.. coz he is in white (btw he is the one beside me, picture on the right)



Here are some pic of us live in action... heez... this picture is courtesy of firdaus, one of the ORD personel, and my camera... heez we start of at the street inbetween herren and party world ktv next to singtel, then we march all the way to the gate of the istana, then we end off at the street behind Plaza Singapura... hehez... hope this is enough info for those hu haven't seen a COG, so now u know k... must support next time yah...heez...

Alright i support that conclude my blog, its pretty long i have to say... heez.. been hard work but this wonderful memories will be very useful in the future... Shall leave u all with a last pic... not a pic for the weak hearted.. but here goes... Result of jay walking....

Conclude... the roads is fatal even when u have wings.... heez....

Very long time no Blog!~!~

Hey there it been a while since i last blog.... sorry for the absence... was really having no inspiration on blogging... heez... now i am back... okok let me juz update what i have been doing during this time of "absence"

Besides no inspiration, hectic work schedules also contributed in part of my MIA, anyway, here is a summary of what i have been up to lately ba... First up, a paid engagement at the Grand Hyatt hotel, it was for some company event thingy, our band was invited as the man (President) was there... shall share some photos as wellHere is a picture of us all dressed up and preparing to leave for the event, was actually suppose to be a picture of the 3 of us (front) but those 2 apparently joined in unnoticingly... heez..

Here is when man are at work... heez... shuai ba... heez... uniform always looks good when u are not in them... don't understand why either... heez...

Following that was a band trip up to Malaysia, was proudly organised by Central band as they felt that everyone deserved a "relaxed" day since the PEAK PERIOD (from apr to aug) of the band is over... the trip was held on a MONDAY, wasn't the best day to have it right, when u have to work the next day... but since its a FREE trip, we just went of with it lah... here are some of the places we have visited...



heez... first up we visited a fruit farm that with their main harvest being honey orange... kinda like a mix of mandarin orange and sunkist orange as the tour guide have intro (in the first pic) , 2nd pic is a pic of some of my buddies and I sneaking off to take picture and rest while the tour guide was busy introducing the other fruits avaliable in the farm to the other... the last one is a pic of me with a bunch of banana, i bluff u not... those are bananas, and yes... they are taller then me.. cannot remember whats the name of it anymore, anyway, its believe that if someone couldn't have baby, they juz have to touch this (or eat one banana from it, cannot remember) they will be able to have a baby... haha... believe or not its up to you.... but its indeed something new and i haven't seen before...

Next, we are off to and Ostrich farm, pretty big place and loads of ostriches, and definately a strong bird smell... hahaha...



here, is me with 2 ostrich eggs, lolz... there are like huge and nothing like chicken eggs man... first experience with ostrich eggs man... usually onli saw them in TV, heez.. now i know where flinstones get such big scrabble eggs.. lolx, in there middle, that is my fren, zhi xun, and yes he is about the same height as the ostrich... heez.. at most the ostrich is about 5cm taller as the ground wasn't very level... heez... but he is that tallest guy in band so its not suprise if he is taller than an ostrich too...lolx... lastly, me standing on an ostrich egg... haha worried that it might break, then fret not, coz before me, someone that weigh 108 kg just stood on it... and it could handle its weight juz well... so i am considered "light" lolz.... oh yah, know what the interesting is... the ostrich(no zhixun, hee) in the middle, actually understand malay and love taking photos, the owner just have to ask it to look at the camera in malay and it will follow... how cool its that...

Heez... then after visiting all these farms... its was just some shopping and makaning till its was about evening before calling a day... tiring yet enriching day... i wouldn't say it was not fun as i get to know my bunk and bandmates better... heez... its was fun lah... but hopefully the next one won't be one that we will have to work the next day again... *hint... heez....

Alright, there is actually a couple of more events... but i guess i will share later on... now its TV time... heez.. how no life can one gets, when ur life revolves around tv and internet... heez.... ciaoz then....
