Anyway i was on HQ duty too so didn't really affected me much.. only that i was abit reluctant to return to camp after such long break...

Oh yah here is some more pics that i have promised from the previous outing...


Here are some scenes from the "prize presentation" for the day... haha... okok more like farewell gift presentation lah... in the middle, is a gift (poster) design by our event organizer, Adeline, with out well-wishes for Jasmine. Since she is going to America during the winter season... we poped in a scarf to keep her warm in her coldest nights... heez...

Well, indeed that even will bring alot of memories when i look at the pictures... but i was very touched to recieve a handmade card from Karen... for everyone... each with their own pictures and stuff.. Can tell its took alot of effort and time... Thank Karen...!!!

Great job guys... heez.. for this outing and stuff... haha...

Well, guess thats all for this monday afternoon, got a long week ahead... Finished doing the housework, now visiting my mum in the hospital... suspected stone in her kidney or something like that... haiz... feel like such a failure... all this time my mum is not feeling well, i am still stuck in camp... Well ciaoz pple, may u have a pleasent week ahead then... Ciaoz

Argh!!! Nightmare after a sweet dream!!!

"Hey boy, you seem to have put on weight again arh!" those are the words my dad said to me yesterday while watching TV... NO!!! think all the outing and feast have finally "revenge" and destorying all the effort i have been putting in the past month... time to counter!!!

Anyway talking about outing, just had one with my section on wed, hehe been a long time since we had one, its was kind of a Welcome back party for Andy, who just came back from Shanghai for his attachment. As well as a farewell party for Jasmine, who is leaving for America for her attachment... haha... this is what you call killing 2 birds with one stones...

Was working that morning, preparing for COG this coming Sunday, and had off that afternoon so met up with the gers (Sherine, Adeline, Waileng and Fong Cheng) as they had their lunch before heading down to town for SHOPPING!!! (girl's next best fren after diamonds.. heez)

Here is on the way to town... heez... the 4 lovely ladies i was with (middle pic from L to R: Wai leng, Fong Cheng adeline and Sherine) heez.. they had some kinda pact to all be in skirts... lolx... There (by the left) is me trying to be funny with the pole in in the train... haha suitable for cover of menshealth??? wait long long lah i guess... When we got there... we went shopping and look around... and Adeline finally got her levis... her first ever... haha everyone deserves a levis... right *winkz...

Anyway after that, there is more shopping and slowly we swept across to Funan IT mall.. haha there is where i got myself a pair of running shoes!!! heez so happy... Ladies and Gentlemen... introducing... Asics GT-2100, its designed with GEL Cushioning System designed to help protect the foot from harmful forces and absorb impact. Its comes with Duosole properties and Speva midsole cushion to aid runners in all kinds of track conditions... 3M technology also provide the reflective materials on the shoe to make the shoe visiable to vehicles when running at night... A highly recommended shoe by Sports Medicine Australia... Took it for a test run yesterday and indeed its a very good pair of shoes...


Heez guess its enough on the shoes already... back to the outing... after shopping... when everyone is tired and hungry... we proceeded to our meeting spot, a diner in excelsior hotel (if i remember properly). My first time having korean food... heez... great experience...

Pictures says a thousand words.... heez.. so i guess i am not saying much about dinner... see for yourself i guess... there is only one word to describe... and that is FUN... heez....

After that we went of to esplande for a drink, unfortunately Sherine have to leave first... but could be a blessing in disguse too.... coz i guess she wouldn't like the ambience in DXO neither... heez.. heres more photos...

Here are some pictures that we have taken before sherine left... heez... there is more but i guess i am not going to cramp all into one blog... shall continues maybe along with my next blog... so do stay tune yah... heez... Dragonboat tml... cannot wait... have a great weekend lah... take care...

HAPPY DEEPAVALI!!!

First and formost, would like to say a very happy deepavali to all my indian friends out there... have a wonderful day!!!

Well today its been pretty much like a normal day for me, but for the first time in a long time, i woke up in the afternoon... haha its been a long time since i "pigged" around le... Past few days have been pretty smooth sailing i would say, and being the "public holiday" week (considering having 2 PH in one week!!!) i get to enjoy the much awaited rest that i have been craving for... and also give me more time to follow up on my workout regime... heez...

Dragonboat race is three weeks from now, not very near yet not very far from now... its my second major race with the team... considering that i have be MIA for so long in between... i really hope i can get something out of it... the last time i almost clinched a sliver... but i am hungry for GOLD this time round... the result for my time trails is out.. apparently i did not bad... average timing for both sides... haha normally pple does their trails for only their stronger side... but i kinda got mixed up and did both instead... Guess that is the short term goal i am working towards at the moment... before December hits and we once again get into the "busy" mode with OCS comissioning on hand...

Last night, caught up with a couple of good frens, herbert and dennes, who happened to be release from tekong, (herbert - doing BMT, dennes - recourse) to talk, watch movie and stuff... Saw Lisa too in town.. haha Singapore is indeed so small... everytime i am in town i am bound to meet frens.. haha (okok not always, but most of the time) Watch Zorro, its nice, and Catherine Zeta Jones is so pretty!!! OMG... her eyes is so mesmerizing... After movie, we had out for supper, for me i only watched as my frens have supper, strict diet... heez... Oh yah, for all the Newton Circles Fan out there, heartbreaking news, newton circles is closed for renovation... haha, consolation new is they have set up a temp eating place beside the old newton circles, so u still can enjoy good food after clubbing and stuff k... heez its pretty hard to miss honestly...

Alright then... short and sweet today... nothing much... tml will have a section outing... heez... looking forward to it... till tml its ryan here.... OUT!~!~!

Tiring day *phew...

Argh shoulders aching, head heavy, stiff neck... feeling like an 80 year old man... think i am going to pop one panadol extra before sleeping tonight...

Yesterday night was superb man... had a hell of a time, came online the moment i got home from camp, and Peishan msg me for a drinking session, thinking i haven't drink for like ages, and also not met up with them for ages, i agreed. When to pick up something from my frens first before meeting up with Angelina(aka angie) and Lisa in town... heez... shopped around for awhile before heading to Holland V.

Some pictures to make things seems less dull...
Here is the five lovely ladies that i have spend the evening with... haha, when we walked into the pub everyone was like staring at me like i am some playboy or something... give me the "what the hell" look... heez... i am just fortunate i guess... (From L to R: Lisa, Angie, Cynthia, Pei Shan and Alicia)

All this time we are chatting and drinking... and i have to say beers are reasonable there man... happy hour, 2 for one price.. and good beer man... erdingers, hoegardens, ludwig, and many many more...


And at the end of the day, when everyone is pretty "sober", we played TRUTH or DARE... and when everyone decides that they cannot handle the TRUTH, everyone started to choose DARE, that is when all the stupid stuff happens... haha



Here are some of the highlights DARE we have to perform. I was force to act all horny on the poster girl, guess that look horny enough.. haha. But the ultimate winner to the DARE game would be peishan!!! haha she had to kiss Lisa, and also pluck a display off the wall and take a pic with it... heez... so funny...

Some more pics we took...

Finally left the pub at about 1am, we were the last to leave... peishan got her hubby to fetch her while the rest of us hoped into a cab and got home... on the way home, the beer starts to have a riot with my stomach, guess i drank too fast for the last few pints (was part of my dare, finished 1 1/2 pint in less then a min) and with with bummy ride i on the cab... i couldn't take it once i when we got to lisa's place... haha i PUKED... In my history of drinking, it was my first time... Puked in between 2 cars at the carpark... After that ordeal, I was sent safely back home by angie (thx alot) haha... I would said its one of the more happening nights i had in ages man... enjoyed every bit of it.... thx alot

Alright body giving way le... tink i will go rest liao... nitey to all

Another week and close to the end of the month!!!

Its been a fast week, seems like i have just completed timetrial for my dragonboat training, before i know it, there is practise tml!! yipee!!! Abit about the week...

Its been a pretty smooth sailing week, nothing extraordinary happened except the usual stuff, the week kick started with and ORD function, a day every bandsmen like me are looking forward to as it marks the day u are finally going to reunite with your PINK IC (i missed mine so much... heez..) Well, its was a function for some of the mates that have been through quite abit of parade with me through this year of my service, i am sure going to miss them pretty much i guess, all that crapping around, hot gossips and occasional backstabbing session... whoopsz... heez

Mid week, being the off peak period, took halfday to go jalan jalan in town, and caught "Flight Plans" really nice movie, really worth watching, love the camera angles the director used to capture the plane. Anyway, hate window shopping, why, because it always adds things to my wishlist/to buy list... haha here are some of the things i have spotted and is really interested to get just from Hereen...

(1) Levis Jacket (kinda formal, but can be used otherwise too...)
(2) Adidas Shoes w goodyear soles Brown (saw it in Frankfurt but was too expensive to get, so tot i get it locally, finally its out, but having second tot due to some "expert" opinion i got)
(3) Nike Sling Bag / Puma Sling Bag
(4) NewUrbanMale T-shirt (with cool slogan)
(5) Armani Specs [plastic frame] (most likely after army when i am back to my books)/ Levis Specs

Heez... well after that we didn't have time for other places and had dinner, so guess thats all for one place i guess.. heez... maybe can be added to my birthday wishlist i guess.. hee... That day was a Subway day for me man... had it for both lunch and dinner... Lov'in it...

Yesterday, was bored after camp, so when gyming with the guys from camp, then after, went for band prac (NYP) to see how everyone is doing, heez.. so glad to be sightreading pieces... after that, its was already drizzling when we (Me, andy and fong cheng) stepped out of skool, but its started to rain ELEPHANTS AND RHINOS (literally) and we were stucked at the busstop. Took a bus to AMK, before making a dash across to take a bus back to camp... Wasn't prepare to get my shoes wet... so i actually took off my shoes from AMK all the way back to camp... The RP was like shocked when he saw me barefooted and all. Looking like a fishmonger (with my jeans all rolled up and all) i braved the rain and lighting, and dashed back to bunk.... was soaking wet from top to bottom...

Luckly for me, i have very good bunkmates like Ba Chor and Tun Hao, who prepared a pail (belongs to ba chor) of warm water for me to shower.. thx guys... Had to air my clothes under then fan as it was indeed very wet... But nevertheless, it was a perfect "sleeping condition"

Kinda summarised my week ba, today have nothing much to talk about... but might be meeting up with some frens for some booze... haha unhealthy for my diet man... but once in awhile it ok i guess =P cannot remember when was the last time i had already... Tml is dragon boat time trails for the gers... hopefully everything turns up well... looking forward to it... meanwhile have a great weekend everyone... cheers..

There's a Dragon in your soul. You are very wise
and like to give people advice. You mostly feel
like you are misunderstood and don't like a lot
of people around you. 2 or 3 friends are
enough. You can be very emotional but because
of your intelligence you have the power to go
on and find a solution. You are wise, but
nobody can solve all problems alone, so don't
turn away from everybody and ask for help
sometimes too. That way, problems will be much
easier to solve.

Yet another week have passed...

Haha, its yet another weekend, this week i would say its not as boring compared to the last... heez, looking forward to a better week ahead... heez...

Anyway, nothing much is happening in camp, so i guess i will not want to blog about all those regimental sh*t and bore the hell out of you guys.. heez... Shall talk about my recent trip to town then. Wednesday was a halfday and since i didn't have anything to do and didn't want to rot in camp, so decided to walk around in town. Its been like months since i last been to town so it was time to update myself on the trends and stuff...

Met with Jin Cheng, Tuan Hao and Kenneth (my band mates) to do some casuel browsing, started of at paragon. Think the gang got a culture shock from my taste of shops as we browse AX and Burberry.. haa but after awhile they kinda got used to it... After browsing the shops in Paragon, next was Taka then Wisma, Along the way, there was lots of chats and laughters... At wisma, we visited Zara, where we got a t-shirt for joel wee as his birthday present (apparently its today) and then we met Weiye (and ORD personnel) working at Guess in taka, waiting for entry to uni... stayed on to chit chat for awhile before proceeding to levis. Saw a really nice jacket there, was so tempted to buy ($179) but there wasn't the size that i want, and the salesperson was so kind to help me check and there was a piece (last) at Raffles... but decide not to reserve it in the end... kinda regretted it kinda think of it... well its up to fate now lah, coz its a seasonal thing and there isn't going to be a restock on that jacket... heez...

After the walk, we settled down back at far east where we had Subway for dinner, have been craving for that a long long time... Before that, bumped into you hui, my SWO mate, he is doing well and got many news from him (about the band and some of the members)... Heez, so glad to meet and old fren and him still remembering you after such a long time... haha... well back to dinner, after that, we had a long bus trip back to yishun to get some cushions that Jin Cheng wanted, unfortunately, the bus ride was so long that by the time we got there, all the shops have already closed.. haha so we return to camp and that is the end of my town trip after a very long time... Fun i have to say, and also tiring...

I so want to watch a movie man!!! just realised the last movie i watch was "one last chance" the jack neo's production, i wan to watch Deuce Bigallow, 40 year old virgin, Goal and one more that is coming out Transporter 2, i missed Charlie and and chocolate factory and Corpse Bride... i think is about time i go on a movie marathon again... haha anyone interested to be my movie kaki??? haha

Tml is yet another dragonboating session, its the time trail session, haha donno if i can cope... but well will try my best... Was so looking forward to the race, but due to some unforsee circumstances, i guess i can only be the reserve for the race... well hopefully i can still earn something out from it.. above all its still down to having fun and knowing more people i guess... Alright i guess thats all ba... Enjoy the weekends and ciaoz...

Rainy Sunday!~!~1

As the year comes closer to the end, so come the monsoon season... its been raining cats and dogs since this sunday morning.... only now its seems to subside but there is a still a slight drizzle... Haha, was actually thinking of going town for a walk, but this rain have "washed" away all my interest and drive... heez...

Well yesterday i had back my first session of dragonboating after a very LONG LONG time, heez.. was kinda worried at first on how people will react... and will they still remember me... heez... but things went pretty smooth i have to say... juz have to be friendly, that is my motto, there was quite a number of new faces... but also some familiar ones... Like wayne, Reeve, Lynton... and many others which i know by face and cannot really remember their name... Lynton, the team captain, was kinda shocked to see me back... haha, was saying he haven't seen me for so long and suddenly i am coming back... have always wanted to go back, its juz that weekends have always seems to be occupied by parades and stuff so it seems impossible to be go back then... now its the "off peak" period, i can finally find time to go back...

recently found their webby, what make me touched was the pic on the front page... here it is...

This is a picture taken a long time ago... when i was actively involved in the team... I am the one in the extreme left on the boat... heez... so glad they have never forgotten me... and i have never really forgotten them too... this photo have definately bring back many wonderful memories of going to kallang every weekend, soaking up the sun and getting splash by the river water during our training... it was really really fun...

Anyway, there is going to be a race coming up... hopefully i can make it into the team by then... for now... its training training and more training for me... hope to get into the first team, and at least get a medal for myself... the last race, well was a "medaless sliver medelist" but was contented that we won the germans... this time have to strive... heez...

Okok enough about dragonboating, about today, its basically a rest day from the week.. and preparing for a new week ahead... feeling abit of stiffness around the neck, dragonboat? sleeping posture? i am not sure myself... but yoko yoko should work some wonders... And nothing beats spending some quality time with my mum... went with her to the market just now to get some ingredient for dinner later, haha my recent diet have given my mum abit of headache, as i have cut myself off form several food... No pain no gain....

Alright then i guess thats for my weekend... nothing too exciting... but well at least not as plain as the previous ones, and hopefully more colours will be added to the coming ones... Ciao take care and enjoy the rest of the weekends then...

Its yet another weekend....

Hey there peepz... finally another week is over... heez.. work wasn't all the fun as i was on duty so i had to stay in the office the ENTIRE WEEK!!! torturing man... heez... but nevertheless did try to do some of my things during my "Free" time lah (which is alot =P)

Anyway... other then rotting in the office all day, i was aski to do plenty of thing, i was a messenger, clerk, receptionist, u name it i done it man.. All because i am the new PA (personel assistant) of our ABSM (Assistant Band Sergent Major)... heavy workload to keep me busy for a few hours per day... heez...

Apart from that its been a pretty quiet and normal week at work lah... and the weekends, tink i will be going back to boating (as in dragonboating), its been awhile since i done it so kinda looking forward to it... but before that i will have to get something done in the first place... heez... FINALLY a planned weekend... no need to stay at home and rot... lolx...

okok hungry man... haven't had dinner think i would go out to find something to eat... will try to blog about my weekend soon lah.. heez.. Cheers...

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....
