Since now i’m a botak! All i wanty for christmas is a nice trucker cap. =]

Going to book in back into Tekong soon! Bye! take care! miss me =] HAHAHA

Yeah! i booked out! Survived 6days of Tekong. Training aint very tought YET. rem it’s YET, i believe i would get tougher, quite like the progressive-ness of the training. =] Food is not bad, bunks are all right. Shan tell much about it Tired. Gonna rest. =]

Ask me about my feelings, i would gladly share.

Came back from the mini council farewell dinner @ Breeks!

In the cab, i heard the song ” Big Girls Don’t Cry” , I guess it should be ” Big Guys Don’t Cry”

HAHAHAH!

Feeling so super ambivalent right now! Hope everything will turn out fine and within control! I will do my best man!

CHEERS!

blog again when i book out about my first hand experience! see ya!

love love <3

I’ve just finished packing my stuffs for Tekong Camp! HAHAHA!

Feeling rather nervous, excited, worried, weird now! So super ambivalent! BREATHE!

Monday. Went over to Ben’s house to help him with the painting of his room. HAHAHA, it was rather tiring but fun. We demand a cheap cheap pay of 5bucks per hour. We painted the room grey and white but thought it was pretty boring so i suggested the idea of having a mural on one of the walls! WEEEE! and we painted this!

pretty right? 

I left before the mural was done because i’m meeting agnes, germs, veron and roy for dinner! So we met up at PS’s Hot Tomato for dinner. The food there is not bad with reasonable pricings. Then we left for germs new house @ Kovan Melody. Her house is very pretty with wonderful environment! Played a supposedly horrifying game, Fatal Frame. HAHA. we got so high when we got attacked by the ghost! LOL!

Tuesday. It was mahjong @ Xuewei’s place. I lost again =[. Think that my luck recently has been quite bad, in terms of mahjong luck. But it's ok! When you lose something, you gain something! Then it was steamboat at my cosy little house. At first, my class clique wanted a farewell dinner  @ our favourite Mala place, but i got the idea of having steamboat at my place, so we went ahead with the idea! Cos it's like much cheaper!

Steamboat dinner that was supposed to be with my class clique turned out to be a dinner with 10 person at my little house! LOL! i invited xuewei, ben and gary over too, after our mahjong session at xuewei's. Veron and Lester came over too! So we got 10 persons! The more the merrier! We had a fun, merry, laugher-filled time while eating. =]

Thursday! Mahjong again at Xuewei’s place! Lost =[

Later in the evening, i went down to Orchard to meet with Wei Sheng and Daniel @ Waruku. The food is nice! Slurps!  Then we went walking around town, chatting and catching up. Life's simple pleasure!~ =]

The week or rather the week of freedom was super fun-filled for me and i spend a lot of money! Meeting with different group of people everyday, makes me feel so wanted and popular! LOL! i love all my friends! We must keep in touch and rem to look for me when i book out! AHHHHHH!

But the the common topic nowadays is always about army and NS life. HAHAHA! Because i’m entering soon! HAHAHA!

AHHHHHHHHH! Another journey of my exciting life is going to unveil soon! In less than 24hours time! Feeling really excited and nervous about it! AHHHHHHHHH!

Wonders how the life would be, how my life would change, how are my new friends like, how am i going to suffer, how will i cope etc etc!

BUT, i believe i will turn out to be a stronger BINGIE! WOOTS!

i will survive! i must survive! =]

Later will be council farewell dinner for me and jerold @ marina’s breeks. Cos Mr Jerold is also entering on the same day, same time, same school as me! HOHOHO! Think i will go down to the GuanYin Temple to ask for blessings later! =]

I will give another post after i come back from dinner! The last post before i enlist! AHHHHH!

I kinda of just finished watching Hong Xin Da Jiang on the TV. Next week, i wont be able to watch TV as i want anymore =[ 5 more days to enlistment

Yesterday, i went for my first-ever M18 movie in my life! woohoos!

30 days of nights.

The movie was great. But the ending werent great at all. HAHAHA, Xue Wei's shuai-ge corroded away in the end, just like how people burn joss paper and went into the air. How sad?

I always love movies with great endings. A great ending to me is one that has a perfect resolution, with a deep meaning behind the plot aka morale of the story. Cos i think every story told should carry a message.

Anyway, while watching the movie i thought of this... Next week, at the same day same time, i will not be sitting down watching movie anymore, i would be just in my bunk preparing to sleep.

Recently, i keep having this type of thoughts due to my mother and also due to the fact that i'm going to be enlisted soon! So i keep thinking about my life in NS etc. While my mum would nag at me... ...

"Aiyoyo, now you play computer, next week, this time, you cant play computer anymore lo! you would be suffering inside!"

LOL? how nice can my mother be? hahaha
Today, i went to mindcafe @ boat quay with my first 3 months classmates. And sweet Michelle brought me donuts from donut factory as bday gift cum going-into-army gift. LOL!

So, we had lots of fun playing the exciting games from the cafe. I always love playing boardgames, i think they are so fun and exciting! Don't you think so? hees... ...

It's nice being able to meet them again, to see them and to spend time together! We still must keep in contact! =] Thanks Michelle for planning and initiating!

Been missing for a few days due to Council Chalet.

 Tuesday. It was NYJC’s prom night, i didnt attend it but went for the post prom party @ The Arena, Clarke Quay. Didnt really enjoy it, because the music were’nt really great and it was really packed, with music blasting into your ears! Drank our drinks and went out to sit sit. Like most people would say, sitting outside really beats sitting inside. We get to see people drunk acting crazily, vomitting, sprouting nonsense and trying to start a fight. Love it when the bouncers stop those crazy drunkens! HAHAHA.  Went home on the first train of day! Reached and felt asleep at about 7.

Wednesday. Slept till 1plus in the afternoon because i was really tired and was late in meeting the councillors for the chalet. And it was also raining heavily like no one’s business. I ended up reaching the chalet @ 6.30! HAHAHA! Played mahjong and dai dee throughout the night and lost 10 bucks. Wanted to sleep but there was no space available for us to sleep! So we chatted till the morning and went to see our dearest Sebastian off into the army together with the rest!

Sebastian was the first amongst the council guys to be enlisted into army! Being so near Pasir Ris interchange, we decided to be sweet, to go down as a council to see him off. Went to see him off! Wah! Damn feeling can? All the feelings started to flood in. Then i started to imagine myself in his position, visualising all the stuffs. Damn exciting! HAHAHA. soon it’s my turn =[

After sending off, we were off to breakfast and shopping for the night's BBQ.Backed at the chalet, i bathed and went for a short nap. Prepared for BBQ and it was the start of the BBQ~ Had fun BBQ-ing and eating!

After the BBQ, it was the inter-jc mahjong session with IJCians. NY versus IJ! LOL!  i just any-o-how suggested it and it actually came true! HAHA! i did not played but went down to watch and support because i'm like the organizer can?!?! WAH! Luckily, i did not play because they played very fast, faster than how we usually play. Plain watching i could feel the deep tension and stress! VERY EXCITING! In the end, we won! Yeahness! HAHAHA.

Friday. Went for breakfast and it was home sweet home. Slept like no one's bussiness until our gambling ghost aka gary song called @ 8pm.

 "Hello! Eh, sleeping just now ar?"

"Ya"

" When you enlisting ar? Next week is it?"

"Ya, then we must play next week before you enter into army!"

"Yesyes!

 HAHA! How anxious can gary song get? LOL!

And coming to think of it, i'm going enlist into armynext friday! Offically 6 more days to be enlisted! 6 more days of freedom only!  AHHH!!!

A lot of people have been asking me about my feelings. Then i would always say " nothing much, enjoy first"

Really, that's how i'm feeling now. I'm not really bothered about enlistment into army cos worrying cant do much about the fact of enlistment! If worrying can do wonders, i would surely worry my ass off! =] So, now all i can do is to enjoy and have as much fun as possible!

Despite being fearful of NS, actually now i’m really really embracing it! We have always hear of this phrase ” If you cant beat them, join them!” Now, since i cant escape NS, i will just have to accept it! Embrace it!

I’m really treating it as a chance for me to slim down a little, be healthier, learn to adopt a healthy lifestyle and stuffs! So that i can fully enjoy my days after NS, in Uni. =]

Through NS may be tough and scary but i always think that, no wonder what diffculities comes our ways, we just have to grit our teeth and bear with it, telling ourselves to press on! and soon it will be over and we would emerge stronger! =]

So, should i cut my hair before i enlist or what? Big big question on my mind.

 Breathe! Embrace!

Yesterday, I played mahjong and I lost 22bucks.

YES! exactly 22bucks… SHHHhhhh! not too loud

BUT! i was’nt sad at all, not a slightest tinge of saddness.  Usually, when i lose money, i would chant grumble/whine/scold/curse till i feel happy. Weirdly, I was happy, actually more of glad, that i lost money yesterday!

It was like this… …

Yesterday, We started playing at 11. We played a total of 4 rounds.

First round, my hands were’nt good at all. I do not have the ‘feel’ for mahjong. F.Y.I, you need the special ‘feel’ when playing mahjong. Furthermore, i had a very weird feeling throughout the game, a very bad feeling that something very bad would happen soon/today. So, i kept grumbling and grumbling.

“AHH! my tiles not nice!”

AHH! i have have this super bad feeling, so weird.”

“AHH! i feel super xin xu, the feeling is so not right, i’m gonna hyperventilate, save me.” 

“AHH! this is so scary”

 The ‘feeling’ was so bad that i kept quiet for most of the games after having grumbled enough, which was very unusual of me as i always talk a lot when mahjong-ing.

BUT! suddenly i HU-ed a man tai (5tai) zi-mo.

F.Y.I. that was close to the max amount one can win in a single game. So 9.60 entered my drawer. Ka Ching!

I was’nt happy at all, not that i’m not satisfied but the ‘feeling’ did not subside at all. While, the rest grumbled that ” WOAH! bad feeling still can win so much, you BIG winner!”. We continued and i won 4 bucks for that rounds. Not really happy actually cos the feeling was still there.

The ‘feeling’ is just like as if something really bad is going to happen to one of my closed ones. So, i felt very bad. Bad incidences always strikes when one least expects it. Does’nt it? I was so scared when my phone rang, thinking that it might be the call for that ‘bad news’

But luckily, the day ended with no ‘bad news’ at all. But, i lost 22 bucks.

NOW, i really got the meaning of a Chinese saying “Losing fortune to avert disaster”

=]happiness

HELLO!

For the past few days, it’s usually alternating between mahjong and shopping. Shopping and mahjong are both equally tiring. After shopping, my precious legs would ache while after mahjong my hands will ache! What a good excerise mahjong is! HAHAHA! i’m loving’ it =]

I really love mahjong! Even though for the past 2 times, i have been losing. LIKE 13bucks and 5 bucks! BUT i still enjoyed it a lot! I really love the tension (aka tense-ness), mahjong creates. When nearing the end of a particular round everyone would be very tensed-up, picking up their tiles, waiting for the winning tile to appear! Once it’s out, people will just naturally shout out “HU!”. AND here’s comes the instant gratification! LIKE WOOHOOS! HAHAHA. So damn exciting! It’s also very funny when we play mahjong, we would speak in weird Engrish, laugh at each other, suan each other and also some occasionl singing. =] FUN!

I was winning the first few days, but had been losing for the previous 2 times. When i was winning, i obviously have the cravings to play more, in hope of winning more. Despite losing now, i still have super cravings for mahjong! I love the feeling of waiting to HU, i love the feeling of picking up a tile that i need, i love the feeling of HU-ing! i like… That’s how addictive mahjong is! Slurps!

Yesterday, was our 29SC dinner @ Fish n Co, Glasshouse aka Farewell dinner for the NS-men to be.

See! We have such a big group @ Fish n Co! So happening right? BIGGEST GROUP THERE! group of 30plus near 40. There was this other group that tried to beat us in terms of numbers and noise! But, notice that the word here is “tried”. Obviously, we won! *beams* =]

CHEERS! shoppping later? contemplating…
