hElloZ to aLL~~

how time flies when you're busy, its been 5 months since i last blogged (or at least successfully without being cut off halfwae while blogging). Under incessent reminders to update (only 4 in 5 months... i'm sad), i decided to take time off to blog a short entry.. So much has happened in this short short period of time... the girls have already started uni.. bleah.. so jealous... hmph. while i continue my life in army... just finished my combat engrs spec couse in eti.. yes.. i moved on from sispec to engrs fter my basic section leaders course.. woots!~ no more fire and movement crap... eeks..

kies... where i last left off army life has brought me to sispec bslc... my 10 ardious weeks there was tough but really kinda fufilling lah... will alwaes remember staff richard for his funny antics and scary mood swings... eeks... will nt forget the terrible fast marches we had nor the endurance runs in vest slacks which makes you feel like you just died and got revived when you reach the holy grail, the water point... hahaz.. entering into the rainy season, field camps weren't just what they used to be during bmt.. rain rain rain.. bleahz...

contrary to wat many people, esp girls, believe, i am not studying engr in here... its NOT like what u get in nus... lolx.. but it has been pretty interesting so far... completely dun regret coming here... =p... had lots of fun and exciting times dealing with demolition (ntu peeps would prolly noe cos one of our ranges is like bloody close to the campus), mines (besides the mine prodding, mine field laying AND lifting, digging the darn holes and finally looking for the darn mine in the dark... bleah), wire obs (the real booby traps used in our summary ex. while i was sec comm was unbelievably cool cause for once it was actually not SIMULATED), apb (SIONG but fufilling la), chemical defence and etc. etc. Sounds cool right.. hahaz go sign on now and be absorbed into te regular service.. =p finally trainee life is over... wonder whats in store for me next... hahaz... hmmm...

went to army open hse yesterday... its actually quite good i must sae... got to fire blanks.. hahaz... which i haven't done so since sispec... cos engrs like only carry guns but don't really use them... =(... well at least we have our beloved adm, aka giant claymore to be happy about... thats lots more featured in aoh, had fun watching the combat engrs corporate vid... just feels interesting to find out what "cool" stuff we show off to the public, just like us watching a tourism show of singapore...

talking about singapore... ndp this yr was great wasn't it... hahaz... cos we, engrs organise one marh... had the opportunity to bring the primary sku kids from plmgs and also foreign sku kids from singapore international school (hongkong) but i was sure at least 2/3s of them were singaporean... -.- this yrs npd was simply so different from other years... i actually understood the parade segment for the first time in my life.. hahaz and so many people i knew we involved too.. fireworks was fabulous... with the only flaw in that the stupid smoke from the fireworks were like obstructing the view of the fireworks themselves, talk about fireworks overload... hahaz... also had lot of fun during preview and the actually being tour guides to all the singaporeans and also foreigners coming to join in the crowd... and the gurkhas are like really cool with there daggers and shotguns.. hahaz.. so scary looking sia...

just registered for my basic theory, the queue is crazy... my test is like in a gazillion years... nov 14... wth... can't they just hold more students per test... bleah...

tests tests tests... my sat test also coming up soon in october... and with my bad english.. bleah.. its a worrying event for me... still yet to apply to ucas either... time is like so running out for me... zZz... so lazy to do all these "admin" stuff...

went for movie marathon yesterdae catching up on all the movies i missed... rush hour 3 was ok... not super super nice... would rather watch it on tv though... 1408, despite reading several bad reviews won me over with its wonderful scares... stephen king fans.. please go catch it.. i finally ended my movie dae with 881... amazingly after like opeing for 4 weeks like... the theater was still like full... besides it illogical, weird, or some might even say total lack of plot, the songs are nice, the jokes are funny and the teary scenes are really quite tear inducing... may and choy so cannot speak chinese... couldn't they have dubbed it better... bleah... zi lang zi phua, gum qing buai sua... so touching... hahaz... a highly recommended watch for the young and old...

okays.. my short entry turned out nt so short either... hope tt it'll satisfy my microscopic-sized fanbase out there for the time being... nt forgeting my fact of the dae... because steel expands when it gets hot, the Eiffel Tower is six inches taller in the summer than in the winter...
