Actually, i don’t know how i should go about it so i guess i’ll just type out whatever that comes to my mind.
2008, kinda of the first year and second last year in army. LOL!
Army was alright. BMT Tekong was alright, guess it left a good impression on me. Made many friends.
Followed by Transport Supervisor Course which was the best part of army life so far and i guess it will remain the best.
Army life there was regimental and relaxed at the same time, had our share of freedom. Being a trainee there rocks. Definitely willingly to go back there man. Also made good good friends like Dixon, Raymond, Mella, Johnnie, Ronald, Hek Ding, Qi Han, Zhan Yong.
Next, which is now and future is at Mandai Hill Camp. Let’s say that it left a good first impression on me but it didnt last for a long time. Nightmare then began. Being a transport supervisor over there isnt any easy work. Many sudden shits which i totally hate. I still remember @ Kuishin-bo, i almost died while having dinner with Hek Ding and Ronald. That time was my first even sudden piece of shit i even received. I really almost died. I swear. It sucks but i guess i’m still learning and adapting, that’s why. Must say that i think i’m learning, adapting and coping quite well with it. Thank goodness.I really hope that less shit will come. PLEASE!
Shoutouts to Hek Ding, Dixon and Ronald, for listening to me rant about army shits, it really helps alot. Let’s continue to support one and another till we ord in less than 12 months time’s! HOOORRRAAYYY!
fyi. My consecutive 3 weekends kinda of got disrupted by MHC due to details and duty. Quite sai but luckily got off to compensate.
My 2009 would be filled with stuffs from Mandai Hill Camp, lets pray that it would be good. And that i will ORD on the 11th of Dec 09 smoothly. 2009, please hurry and pass.
In 2008, i don’t think i lost any friends but i think instead i gained some good friends which is really great! =]
I think friends are really important to me. They really make a BIG part of my life. They never fail to brighten my GREEN life, add colours and fun to it. They make my weekends really happening, which i like! If it’s impromtu and happening, even better! LOL! I LOVE YOU GUYS! =]
But i must say i need to spend more time with all my friends out there.
I think i managed my time amongst my friends quite well already but i think i still neglecting some of them, which is really bad.
Shoutouts to: Agnes, Peijun and my other beloved OG11 peeps. Shahamir, Wilson Lai and fellow St Gabs band mates. Marcus Chan and Yonghui. My NY first 3 month 0632 peeps like Siew Quee, Mich, Jia Bing.
Been sooooo longggggg since i last met those mentioned figures, i think i neglected them quite a bit. But, no worries. People lets meet up and catch up regularly in 09 ok?. If you’re reading this, start planning and inform me! LOL!
I think in 2008, family ties were also brought closer. Guess that my brothers and i have all matured. No more childish fights and bicker but more of nice understandings, which is good.
In 2008, I think that i’ve mature, grown and learnt more about myself.
I’ve learnt to manage my time better, like make time for many friends. Understood that meeting up with friends doesnt exactly meant that you to do something really exciting and meeting for the whole day. Its about spending quality time together with your beloved friends. It could be a simple chilling over a short dinner, chilling over a cup of coffee @ Starbucks or anything that you deem fits. It about being together, enjoying each other’s companies and not about doing things to pass time. You get what i mean? I know you do. LOL.
I’ve leant to sleep on long bus journeys. I’ve have always love long bus rides. In the past, i love it cos i can use the opportunity to pluck in my ipod, look out of the window and enjoy the moving scenary, spend time alone. I love it, cos i can people watch too! i love to people watch! And dont you think that it’s kinda of require some fate to be able to take the same bus together? The bus is like a fate interchange, you see people come and go, passing by each others lives. But now, army has taught me to sleep on long bus rides, cos it’s often tires me out and sleeping on buses just maximises my time.
To think that i used to have the mentality of ” I-dun-understand-why-people-can-sleep-so-soundly-in-buses”. HAHA!
I’ve learnt to treasure people by my side more. Like if you really miss them, say so. Dun be shy.Dun wait till it’s too late then you say so. By the time, it’s too late. -_-”’
I’ve learnt that if you wanna be happening. Dun wait for things to happen. Make things happening. Dun be shy again. Call/text your friends first and you’re on your very first step towards a happening time. Dun sit and wait. If u sit and wait, then would probably end up just sitting. Be proactive. Wanna meet your friend? Text/call/msn them. Call them who knows they might be on and free?
But warning, not everyone is like me, so nice, sui pian and easy-going. HOHOHO!
I’ve also learnt to like watching movie. I used to think that watching movie is like a waste of time cos a bunch of friends just come together, sit inside the cinema, and watch the movie side-by-side with minimal interaction, like WTF?! What a bad socialising tool, but later this year, i grew to love watching movie at the cinemas maybe because i thought that it was a better alternative than mahjong when you’re in a large group. Cos when in a large group, you cant expect 4 to play while the rest watches or do other stuffs. Dunno what accounts for the change even thought my mentality still stands. BUT! watching dvds at home together with friends on a comfy couch/bed is still the best!
That’s all folks for 08!
Let’s move towards a more happening, great, fast 2009!
Cheerios! Take care. =]
