I survived the worst!

I pulled through six days of hell without proper food, sleep, rest and bath. SIGH! Imagine having camouflage on for 24/7, wearing the same old dirty piece of uniform throughout the day, bathing only with powder, sleeping just 2-3 hours proper a day (I only had 30 mins of sleep on the last day), eating shitty ration food everydat (I survived mainly on biscuits from day 3 onwards) and lastly worst of them all, being treated like dogs by the commanders.

In return, I got multiple insect bites, wounds, aches and heat rashes all over my body.

No one will like field camp like seriously! It totally drained me dry.

Now I have the worst of BMT out of the way, I will look forward to POP and THAILANDDDD!! in December. YAY!!

Booking back in in less than 24 hours when I only had one bookout day this week :(

Field camp! NOOOO!!!!

People should understand why NSmen always talk about army when they book out. Yes, I am one of those who rant and rave about how things are run inside and complaining about every single dislike. What do you want us to talk about when 5 out of 7 days are spent in the lifeless camp? We don't know what's going on in the outside world although there is newspaper every night but who will have the time and energy to read it after a hard day.

Anyway, Im going on my field camp from next monday to saturday. God bless me!

I predict a week of never ending sufferings and tortures unless my platoon buck up. No contact at all from the outside world and not allowed to bathe at all cept' powder bath!

Eeeewwww!

I got less than 24 hours more to enjoy.

Learning to write all over again.

I cannot even write an essay proper anymore, I struggled to produce a one page long bullshit! Army is making man stupid and yet they are trying so hard to make us use our brains by making us write meaningless reflections and mind maps of the Core Values.

I feel like home now in this new secret hideout place. New bolster and mattress! *touched*

I wanna stay here all day.

=(

And ya!

2LT Long Kang

&

3SG Oatmeal

They are the two biggest bitches around. Run for your life if you see them.
They fuck you upside down if you don't run fast enough!

Nuff said. My day will be spoilt if I continue.

Im just going to spend this 1 and a half day well with the important people. However, Im having a really bad sore throat, so bad I think its throat infection and my voice changed! I can't have my double egg yolk mooncake or speak comfortably.

Tekong air is fresher than mainland!? *HAHAHA*

I rather lead my life here than go back there.

I'm looking at the positives :|

All thanks to Kumar, I managed feel better for a while.

THANKS BBBBFF FOR THE ENCOURAGEMENT TOO!

Hope to see you around in camp.

I'm trying to look at all the positives in camp.

10:33 PM .

In about 24 hours time, I would be leaving for the dreadful island. I don't know what to feel but I know I am not feeling good. I'm feeling very uneasy right now. I'm really worried about many things in and outside camp =`(

I don't want to leave my life behind. I want to be able to continue to lead this ordinary life.

I'm starting to miss everybody and everything here now =(

FUCK!

I don't want to go tomorrow =(

Friends' UPDATE!

Friends all adapting well.
BBBBFF says he is doing fine!

What a relief.

1:34 PM .

I witnessed most of my close friends enlistment into Tekong and I'm going in on Monday myself. The anxiety and anticipition sucks to the core. Emotion flows when parents have to witness their sons give up the comfort of home for NS ife on Tekong. That's the time when everyone tries their best to hold back their tears and put on a brave front.

I can feel it too. I swear the feeling really SUCKS.

When my turn comes this Monday, I will be stepping out of the comfort zone of my family and friends. Like everyone, I am so used to having the luxury of friends and family by my side almost everyday but I will try my best to overcome the first two weeks of confinement.

I know its tough but I will try.

This was where I adopted my Hermit crabs.

It was an impromtu trip but we all made it successful! This trip was a getaway from work for the girls and the last for the boys as they prepare for NS in the upcoming few days =(

We had loads of fun on the sunny island despite the nation sounding the Tsunami warning a few days ago. Hahahaha. In fact, all of us would pretty like to experience a Tsunami! Are we crazy or what? HAHAHA! We all actually thought we should run towards the sea instead of running away should a Tsunami really occurs. LOL.

Sadly, the scary waves did not devour us but we certainly had lots of fun!

That's what I call a perfect holiday!

Next to you

Two o' clock and I wish that I was sleeping
You're in my head like a song on the radio
All I know is that I got to get next to you
Yeah I got to get next to you
Sitting here turning minutes into hours
To find the nerve just to call you on the telephone
You don't know that I got to get next to you

Maybe were friends
Maybe were more
Maybe it's just my imagination
But I see you stare just a little too long
And it makes me start to wonder
So baby call me crazy
But I think you feel it too
Maybe I, Maybe I
Just got to get next to you

I asked around and I heard that you were talking
Told my girl that you thought I was out of your league
What a fool, I got to get next to you, whoa
Yeah it's five in the morning and I can't go to sleep
'Cause I wish, yeah I wish that you knew what you mean to me
Baby let's get together and end this mystery, oh

Maybe were friends
Maybe were more
Maybe it's just my imagination
But I see you stare just a little too long
And it makes me start to wonder
So baby call me crazy
But I think you feel it too
Maybe I, Maybe I
Just got to get next to you

No more Frankel or Tampines house trips

=( I'm feeling kinda sad, I had my last tuition class with my boys today. It has been almost 3 years since I first started tutoring William and Joseph and although they can be up to no good at times, it was a pleasure teaching them. As for Ashraf, my other P1 boy, I have taught him for a year or so. He's a pretty sensible boy for his age. The little Teacher's Day gift from him is so sweet. =)

I'm sure I'll miss them, especially the Frankel boys.

The underwater world of Redang

A short getaway to Redang for BBBBFF's birthday since we all yearned to get out of Singapore for a little while. All was good except for the bumpy and nauseous 1 freakin' hour boat ride from the jetty to the Resort. If not for the chocolate we bought at NTUC earlier I would have puked on JS. Hahahaha.

DAY 1 IN REDANG

Laguna Redang

The place's like heaven with cool beach, white sand, blue sea and clear sky.

We checked our stuff in and off we went to our first snorkeling trip immediately after lunch. First destination on the card: Pulau Kecil.

Check out this hawt Korean lady in her hawt pink swimming costume. HAHAHAHA.

Dinner by the sea

The old man's 20th birthday.

DAY 2 IN REDANG

All our meals were by the sea but breakfast's the best. I just love a good breakfast to any other meal of the day. =)

2nd snorkeling spot: Redang Marine Park
This time we were smarter, we bought bread and got to see more fishes. "No bread no fish", that's what the instructor said. And the bread really attracted lots of fishes.

See! Fishes are really attracted to JS. Opps! I meant the bread in his hand.

Now you must be wondering why there are no more fishes? Cos' he attracted so much fishes that he began to get afraid and started moving vigorously to scare the fishes away! HAHAHAHAHA. It was REALLY HILARIOUS! Wait till I upload the video here. LOL :D

That piece of bread was pushed away quickly by JS ... ...

... ... cos we saw this humongous fish approaching. LOL. Actually all the fishes look BIG underwater!

That's all for the Marine Park. Next & last snorkeling spot was CK Bay.

Pictures from CK Bay.

I realised most of the pictures are taken underwater. Hahahaha. Alright la! That's all for Redang. Time actually passed very quickly althought we didn't really do much other than eat and snorkel. Hahahahaha.

Now let's all look forward to ~~Tekong~~ Bintan! YAY!!

Credits to my Olympus 1050SW camera!

Nevermind, it's going to be fine

It wasn't temptation to me at all! NOT AT ALL! I tried my best but I ended up feeling like shit. Why can't people understand from my point of view? My mum's like that, and I think everyone else is too.

I DESERVE A TIGHT SLAP

NS is a biatch!

When I havn't got my enlistment letter, I hoped it will come quickly. Now, when it finally came I complain about the time I got left. Trying my very best to adjust my mindset to make NS an enjoyable experience but it seems very tough. Trying to do as much as possible with the limited funds and time I got left. Now I understand why Pre-Enlistees get grouchy and irritated so easily.

Reds in town.

July 25th and 26th 2009. This two days will live with me for a long long time. 25th July, met Mary and Leona to catch a glimpse of The World Greatest Football Club, Liverpool FC. Atmosphere at the Singapore River was good with all the banners and singing.

The wait was long but it was all worth it.

Finally, they are here.

Johnson, Torres, Kuyt, Insua, Arbeloa, Dossena all up close.

And Pepe Reina too!

The master of Rafalution giving the thumb up. Careful, Sammy.

No doubt who received the most cheers

It wasn't enough. We ran from Clarke Quay all the way down to Boat Quay. Oh boy, it wasn't easy with this kind of crowd!

And we caught them again. This time even closer.

It's not everyday you get to see Liverpool in town. Of course we have to make the best of it, we ran through the atas Fullerton Hotel to get to the next destination. I don't know where to, but we just followed the flow.
