October 18, 2004

finally sit down and started to write my 1st blog after a year plus (14 months to be precise...) of stopping it... well... as some of u all have know... i had been serving NS for 14 months liao... and now suffering in changi air base as an RP (regimental policeman)... life gets boring-er and boring-er everyday and duties increases every month but the manpower remains the same... haiz... each day (24 hours) i will get 9 to 12 hours of duty... although it's not physically xiong, but i will be getting crazy 1 day if this continues... but at least there's more dismounts (offs) nowadays... it's like 2 1/2 days mount* (duties), and 1 1/2 days dismount*(off) (we call this 2-1-1 schedule)... to RPs, everday is the same, we also have to do duties on public holidays and weekends... wat to do?? life still carries on...



"Slack rite?" is wat most people say to me about my vocation... but who will understand our misery?? only RPs will..... well... enough of complains... let's talk about wat i done these 2 days...



Yesterday, 171004-->



book out around 11am, finally got 2 days off... because sunday no need to standby (stay from 8am to 5pm)... went home, have lunch, took a shower and went out to meet my camp mates for KTV session... we went Sunlight KTV at cuppage plaza, sang from 2pm to 6pm... quite enjoyable, but it will be better if there's girls :D LOL! there's 4 of us there, 1 of them must head home for dinner, so in the end we "go our separate ways"... there's not even 1 person want to accompany me for dinner... haiz... so i have to do wat i always do: go walk walk, see see ALONE on Orchard Road... strange rite?



so after saying good-byes, i headed for dinner at Cineleisure KFC... a new meal is on promotion, Tom Yam Chicken Meal... it's like putting tom yam seasoning on normal KFC crispy chicken, but at least not as bad as i thought lah... then i went to HMV in search of new albums and news on the album I have been waiting for 1 year: Sun Yan Zi's new album launching on 29th this month!! stayed at HMV until 1930hrs and left there empty-handed... went takashimaya after that to look out for promotions on spectacles (there's a lot of scratches on my specs. u see..)... but found nothing interesting...



so i went on my next objective: finding a good organizer... i went to books kinokuniya and then to Borders... cant find anything that suits my taste and budget, so ended up reading a book at Borders... The book is "Who Moved My Cheese?" by Dr. Spencer Johnson... i read the book halfway months ago, so i make it a point to finish the book before leaving... the book is about 2 mice and 2 littlepeople looking for cheese in a maze... morale of the story is to overcome your own fears and adapt to changes before it's too late... and stop blaming others for the change!! read more about it at Official Who Moved My Cheese? Website ... finished the book at 2245HRS, and headed home... watched the japanese drama "Shu4 Mu1 2 Ke4" on channel 8 and had a good laugh! then continued some variety shows on video tapes until 3am... yawn.. really tired...zzz...



Today, 181004-->



stayed home whole day... woke up at 10am to use computer... wanting to find out more about disruption from NS, but found nothing useful... btw, i got a place in Computer Engineering at NTU and decided to start the course earlier (i.e. next year) before i lost interest in studying... planning to help my mother clean up the living room in the afternoon but my mother says she wants to sleep, so didn't do it in the end... then watched the S.H.E "Together" VCD i've bought yesterday at $9.90... i asking myself, "why i wasting money again?"... but bo bian, i like S.H.E too much liao... especially Hebe!! then now i am here writing this blog.... hehe... hope u enjoy reading...
