~~~Ministry Of Sound~~~

Today is a Sunday.... haha... but slept till 1300 like that then wake up... quite tired out from clubbing at MOS last night...

Well... let's began from the start... haha...

Yesterday... went to meet up with my fellow mortar commanders... except for one (Firdaus), because he is a muslim... so he doesn't drink.. or club..
We met up... then went in MOS around 2300... paid $25 for the entrance leh...
Abit expensive... but i guess there is the "class" for the price...

The place... i would say is really quite an eye opener... very big...got alot of people.... got many rooms for the respective themes... the main hall i think is trance one... then all the light shinning around like those futuristic feel like that...
One bad thing is that the whole palce is quite smoky... alot of people smoking... hmmm... though the Singapore Government already banned smoking in all air-con places?

Anyway... had quite abit of fun.... haha... first time going clubbing this year... 2nd time in my life...
The first time i still remember is just go there and sit only... because too shy or should i say embarassed to go dance around... just sat there and drink...
This time.. actually plan to do the same thing... but the thing is... with all army guys around... it's hard to want to keep to your own style... comfirm kena peer pressured to go in and join in the dance one...or do any crazy stuffs...

We went to meet up with the birthday girl (my fellow spec's cousin) for awhile... then since her table already got her own friends... we went on to explore the place ourselves.... quite alot of us area actually newbies in clubbing... haha...
Abit no link... since our original motive of going there is for her birthday.. but well... since no space... don't mian qiang... go chill around ourselves...

After walking rounds around the whole place... checking out the whole place... we finally went to the R&B room to chill...ordered our drinks... then the whole group of us went into the already very squeezy cage like struture to join in the dancing... or should i say.. wriggling... so squeezy... each person would like only have 30cm X 30cm square of space like that... anyhow also will hit somebody one...
And it doesn't help that as the peak hour comes... more and more people comes in... it's like walking around also have to squeeze in and out... and if you go to the toilet... you have to re-enter the room again... by queueing up again...
Strange policies... but well... i guess they have to maintain the crowd too...

Anyway... as mentioned... we finally squeezed to the inner side of the cage... then we started dancing amongst ourselves.... wriggling actually... haha...
Initially wasn't very used to it... but i guess because everyone else is doing the same thing... plus the music will sort of like make you move to the bit... then i guess thigns start to get natural liao... then you will start moving along with the bit...
Anyway... i think no one there really cares what you are doing.. so long you don't hit them or something...

But well... dono why... some idiot behind me just want to piss me off... dono for what reason... he keep pushing towards me... then after that gave me a shove... and scolded some vulgarities... then dono what the hell...
Actually i wasn't really bothered... because i can understand that the place is like so squeezy... what's the use of trying to shove your way around... anyway i'm quite firm on my ground also... so i'm not being pushed over...
But it is really rude... and i should have gone on to confront... but my PC advised me against it... so... oh well.... big issue change small... small issue change none...

We were in there wriggling for like an hour or so... quite tired leh... haha.... sometimes i really wonder what's the use of just dancing around in a cage full of people.... like abit pointless... but i guess it can help with de-stressing or something... afterall... you are just following the music beat... you don't really think about the surroundings...
Also.. i guess there are alot of "sights and sound"... haha...

This brings me to a point...i feel it is good to be single in such circumstances... haha... because with all the touching around with everyone... even when you don't mean to... it will be very guilty filled... or something like that...
Hey... it's the fact man... you don't touch the rest... the rest will also come and touch you... it's just because of the squeezing around... and yet still continue to dance kinda of thing....

Oh yar... throughout the whole session... i can feel the "Baby Bear"(BB) is really out of place man...dance like not dance... standing around... clubbing is not for him lar...

Anyway... after about an hour.... we finally went out for a rest.. and also to dirnk abit... recharge... Then after that went back in again....
And so... began another round of senseless dancing around again...

But this time... it was much more interesting.... haha...
While we were dancing... my myammar spec (Maung)... dono why... out of a sudden.. got a girl start to put her hands around him... then they 2 started dancing... abit intimately.... really kena stunned sia... because this guy is actually from quite a strict traditional mymmar family... then suddenly so "open"... haha... hot sia...
The only thing is that... the girl not very nice-looking lar... so i also dono why they 2 dancing...
Anyway... later found out that he actually wanted to know the girl's friend... but the friend left le... then i think the girl because keep seeing him looking over.. then maybe though he interested or something... then just embrace him... haha...
Man.. this is going to be a talking point with the platoon liao... haha

For me also... very strangely... got 2 couples suddenly like keep dancing towards me... and the thing is... they are in a line.. the 2 girls in-between the 2 guys... and it came to a point where the 2 girls are like directly infront of me...and i am being force towards the back.. until my leg hit the limit liao... becuase behind me got sort of a level up.. for people who want to dance higher one...
Then it became like very strange... the 2 girls infornt of me... then i cannot move alot... very awkard....
Haha... oh well.. strange clubbing stuffs...

But well... in the end i also got squeezed out... the peopel in there like to squeexe you out one... so finally manage to get back to my circle of friends...

Anyway... we carried on until around 0400... then some fo them decide to leave le... and so left me and another 2 specs... we also left MOS... went to chill out in Macdonald while waiting for the first train... lucky the MAcdonald there is 24 hours... met my SISPEC section instructor there also...haha... he and other SISPEC instructors also went MOS... we talked abit... then they went off first...

ANd so... finally waited till the first train come... ten chiong home... and ZZzzzZZZz.... haha...

Haiz... oh well... clubbing this type of thing... i think i am really not suitable man... but i don't mind the experience... like long long go one time... i guess it's quite fun also... haha... enjoyed the experience...


And so... the rest of the day is spent at home resting... watching TV...

That's all ....

Haiz...

Haiz... as mention... think i may be starting another blog war liao.... but i guess i have to address these disturbing issues.... haiz...

First of all...maybe let me specify the intention of my blog... it is for airing out issues which i think is unsuitable or inappropriate to say out at the time of incident... such that it can be used as a sort of AAR, or at least let the party involved to know how i really felt at that time... something like that...
And so.. most of the time .. if i air it here... it means i didn't want to say it out directly... becuase it may cause un-happiness at the point of time...

But honestly.. most of the time... it is only during when i blog when i think about the incidents... and the feelings felt during then... that's why i add it in...

Anyway... about the car... haiz... mention car i always feel quite sian.... i do not exactly remember which incident LKL is talking about... nor do i want to go find out....

Maybe i just state my opinion on my way of doing things...

Firstly... i don't mind sending friends home... or to a common point... but that must depend on the situation.
If let's say the situation requires a need for me to do so, even sending them to the door-step.. i will... no problem... like for example no mroe punlic transport and stuffs... or no money for cab....
But if there is an alternative to the problem, then i think it would be very unfair to expect me to send them all the way home,for their convienice...
Com'on, i am wasting my resouces just to help other people save theirs, very unfair for me right?

Most of the time... i am defintely ok with sending all together to a common point, and it should be on the way as well... same reason as above...
But like i say... it also depends on situation...

I have concluded one thing from all the chaueffring services i have done so far... that is this type of service is one way only...
Not that i am very bothered or disturbed by it... just that i don't see why i should expend so much of myself for others... simple as that...

And seriously... i am not the type to go around asking for things like that... you want, you give.. don't want... i'm ok with it... what comes around goes around...
Even when friends borrow money... i expect them to pay up themselves... not i have to go ask for it...

As to comments on the un-happiness which resulted form sending friends right to their place... let's put it like this...
I have a personal problem.. that is i do no reject friends that easily... or directly... i tend to make thing easier... maybe sometimes give a neutral stand... or even give in to them....

And i seriously think this problem has led to abuses of myself... because i would say alot of people tend to use my this weakness against me... not only to my surrounding friends... in camp as well....
The only difference is that becuase in camp... i am a bigger shot( not to exaggerate... just abit bigger then normal specs... becuase PS what...) so i can easily push the idiot who try to make use of me away...
Thankfully... most of my specs have intergrity... they do their job... or what is told... maybe only 1 out of my 8 other specs i am not very happy with... like to push things around...
AND i seriously detest those type of people...

But to my surrounding friends... i usually try to give in... and that's why it tend to lead to situations where i am being used...but i don't say it out... and i tend to air what i feel about it in my blog...

Seriously... i think the comments on my own blog should be used as a reflection... these comments do not come just because i am un-happy... it reflects alot of things... so i think people who critize, or complain about my compalining in blog and stuffs should also do some reflection upon themselve...

I mean.. it's not wrong to talk this things out with me.. i am absolutely ok...maybe i myself also got wrong... and that's why i also do reflections upon waht others say to me...
Just that i also hope the person, or anyone involved can also reflect upon why i would say out things like that...
Remember... it takes 2 hands to clap...

Hmmm... guess that's roughly what i want to say ba...and yar... next time when i give a reason to reject... please try to understand that's because i take you as a friend.... if it is jsut some other people, or some stranger... i would reject right in the face... directly... which i think is not very nice.... so whatever the reason... accept it... it's for your own good...
And my car is seriously need to go for servicing le....

This morning went for basketball... played a short and easy session then go home liao...


Later going MOS... as invited by my fellow spec's cousin( her birthday)... so well... first time going clubbing this year... 2nd time in my life... haha...
Well...go try try lor... also for some commanders cohesion... most of the mortar commanders going... so well...
Oh yar... my spec also say her cousin is bring her NTU female friends... so well... haha... see how lor...

Go rest for the night liao....

Long Weekend...

Well... having another long weekend le... actually this blog is written on the same day as the one above... just that i spread it out...

Well.. for this day... at this time... i actually very tired out liao... because in the morning got 8km fast march to complete my CSB condition... abit funny right.. give the badge liao then do the fast march..
But well.. not choice... postponed qutie a few time le...

Then after that went Nee Soon Camp medical center for my PS course dental FFI...met up with LKL, ate lunch with home.. then went back to camp...
Washed my car there... then send my 2 other specialist friend around(Leonard and Lionel).
We went to HSA there to donate blood first, then went to SGH for our volunteer work...

Actually suppose to have free parking one... becuase i doing volunteer work what...
I got the free parking card thingy... then the car-park attendant say she will open the barrier for me...
But because the car-park systme is an ERP one.. and my cashcard is still inside.. so even though the barrier is up.. it still deduct money from me...$4 plus..
Basket... this machines really suck man... haiz..

After that... sent Lionel and a fellow volunteet to the bus stop, then go home liao...
On the way jam like siao... cannot take it man...

The follow up would be that i fell asleep on the sofa at around 0000... then woke up at 0400 plus to wash my clothes...unpack my camp stuffs... then went back to sleep....
Then went for basketball... although i was really very tired.... drove there... even though initally wanted to take bus one...

As for this week... nothing much throughout... quite slack.. but my fellow commanders did went out to orchard on Thursday night... just to sit in starbucks.. drink coffee... and chi chat...

Night's out....

Well.. tonight just came home for awhile... since in camp also nothing to do... quite bored....

Yesterday drove my fellow specs out for awhile... went PS play some arcade...GS actually... then went to Jalan Kayu for some prata... ate the ice-cream prata... not bad... jsut that i still prefer the hot normal prata... haha...
We were just too bored lar... nothing to do...

Anyway... comfirm already... 15th May going for my PS course... till 22th June like that... at PLC... went for the breifing yesterday...
Will be abit xiong... burning some weekends too...
Oh well.. back to trainee's life man.... haiz...
At least can get a rooftop.. i guess that's the consolation for it...

Going to go soon... but dono want to go abck camp or stay home... haiz... swim fish cannot decide again...
Oh.. by the way... the last time i went back to camp in the end...

Booking in really soon...

Haha... last minute post... going to book in liao.. or else will be late...
Hmm.. recently my concession pass like no longer using liao... haha...

Anyway... today had been another rest day for me... really lazing around whole day... until my 2 mortar spec( Treydon and Leonard) jio me go watch movie....
We sort of discuss alot over which movie to watch.. i wanted to watch Daisy... because Jeon Ji Hyun is in it.... haha... then they want their own movie.... blah blah... in the end cannot decide... then also the other specs don't want to watch... adn in the end.. we decide to jsut go paly arcade...

Drove to Parklane there (today Sunday.. can drive out)... played abit of WC and Ghost Squad.. then went to the X-zone at Dhouby Ghaut MRT to carry on palying Ghost Squad.. cheaper there... adn also played House of the Dead 4... quite a nice game...
Sort of resume playing Ghost Squad again.. because Treydon sort of jio me back.. he also playing.. haha...
Oh yar... got promoted to VIP card liao...

After that we went around walking abit.. then go home liao...

That's all... haha... next weekend got long weekend again... Steamboat seission anyone?

CSB..... I've got it!!!

Haha...as mentioned above.... did the March of Infantry Pride on Thursday night... walked all the way till yesterday morning... ended with a 100m foxhole supported range... i missed 2 shots out of 10... but anyway that one pass can already...

Started at the PLC CD training shed... then walk all around the live firing area...went past NTU... go through Lim Chun Kang there.... keep walking all the way back to the PLC 300m range there for our live shoot... also got a river crossing at the 19km mark there...so after that is basically wet boots walking all the way for the remaining 13km... the uniform walk until dry man....

Strangely though... this time i wasn't as tired as the 32km walk during my BSLC days.... guess i've gotten more used to it.. and also maybe the route was better this time round...
Also.. didn't get any blisters at all.. although we walked the 13km in wet boots... think my better of double socks(White and Green) and double soles is really useful...
And got one more thing to add... i didn't rest as mucha s the otehr specialists... because i was the PDS... so i slept abit here adn there only... haha...

Anyway...on the same day itself after the route march... we all got our CSB badge presentation... although abit shagged... but still.. receving the badge was something very meaningful afterall... just like the time when we receive our Corporal rank after the march itself...
First time saluted my PC when i got the badge from him.. haha... never saluted him before...

Then after that... ebcause too tired le.. slept in bunk all the way till 2000 plus... then started washing all my stuffs.. becuase got the mud water smell... wash verything.. then finally reach home at around 2200 plus.. adn jsut KO there man... on the sofa... haha... too shagged liao...

Then basically...today whole day is spent at home... resting... watching anime from youtube and TV...
My new hard drive is working fine liao... just that dono why cannot install games.... hmm... well.. will try to figure that out...

That's about all... snet a message to JK to ask want to play basketball tomorrow or not.. but he haven't replied.. think not playing liao...

Oh yar... congrats to KL man... pass on first shot... up lar... haha

160 GB.. Woa...

Today... quite fulfilling... went out till evening then come back...

In the morning, accompanied my mum to the polyclinic at Marine Parade there for her check up... got some rather unpleasant news though... her blood sugar got rise... then also got some problem with the liver.. dono got what oil or something... then the doctor recommended do some scan to comfirm....
Well... generally i don't really trust polyclinic doctors... they machiam like MOs like that... i think... but still got abit worried... i mean if there is a possibility of this.. then i think it's quite serious liao...
But let's wait till the scan then see how ba.... but i believe my mum will be fine.. shouldn't be too serious a problem...

After that... met up with HK at Sim Lim square to go shopping for a hard drive... and some of his stuffs...wanted to drive.. but decided agianst it... because there is an ERP gantry right before Sim Lim square... so it will be like abit waste money to go in a car... somemore the parking also not cheap... so decided to take a direct bus form my house here instead...
As mentioned before.. my bigger hard drive crashed liao.. so now i have to buy a new one... bought a 160GB one... was really big man... 4 times my old one... but nowadays the market also only sell this size one liao...those smaller storage space one not veyr worth it...
Was thinking of getting an external hard drive too.. to store all my photos and songs.. in case the hard disk crash again... but the price not very worth it... a 40GB portable drive cost the same as a 160GB internal hard drive... might as well get another 160GB internal hard drive, get a hard drive cover, and connect it to the computer....
So in the end.. after much consideration and peruasion... didn't buy it...
A good news is that my mortar spec friend adn HK also say it is possible to retrieve the data in the hard drive even though it crashed... because it only cannot boot up.. but still get retrieve the information inside... so i guess there isn't a real need for an external one...
The most get a DVD burner... and burn all the stuffs into a DVD-RW.

HK got a LCD monitor for his dad... then since he taking cab home... and it was raining quite heavily... i su bian take a ride to his house there... then took a bus home...

On the way home... went to Bedok library there to borrow a book on PCs... guess i do really need to study up on computers liao... like got alot of things i dono... so i guess it's best to learn some knowledge about it... at least next time i can customise my own computer... that would be very cool man... haha....
Now everything have to depend on my brother to hepl me fix... not very nice man...
Hmm.... looking forward to the day when i can customise a computer and call it mine.... haha...

Basically... that's about all le... now still deciding want to go back today or tomorrow.... haha....
That's the thing about given choices.... swim fish cannot decide.... haha...

A shorten long weekend....

Well... got another long weekend again this week... becuase got a company off on Monday.... haha.. but the thing is it was shorten... because i got COS duty on Friday....
But well.. it was sort of a volunteered COS duty... becuase my friend who kena it helped me with mine last Friday.... i was involved in the 5 S.I.R. live firing... so no choice.. he took over mine... then now i take over his...
This guy is really.. no words to describe man... he actually refused to let me do initially... saying he don't mind doing it too... up lar.. no wonder silver bayonet...

But actually do on Easter also got advantage.. can claim off..plus also nothing to do one... i spent the whole day reading comic and magazines...listen to radio... plus watched "Brotherhood"... and do flag lowering and raising only.... and also sleep...
Luckily i prepared alot of things to entertain myself.... and another good thing is that because our company shift to Spear Coy there liao.. the office got air-con one... so it's even more comfortable...
Yar..basically spent the whole day lazing around... quite shiok... the best thing is not a single phone call man... haha... i dun mind doing another public holiday or Saturday man....

Then after my COS duty.. i fetched my guard duty fellow spec to Sentosa.. for our commander's cohesion, together with ATGM commanders...
Not bad... got quite burnt... got salt water to play around... wash the wounds... goof around... put sand on one another's head... sand burial...played soccer too... soak around.. relax...and also got alot of things to see....haha...
We actually saw a girl sun bathing.. without strings.... Hmmmm...

We played until 1500 HRS like that... then me and my another friend (who also drove in) fetched them all back to have a meal at the Harbour-front bus interchange hawker center.. after that fetch them to Parklane for some lan gaming... joined in for some CS.... then after that went home le...

Then today... basically relax whole day... watch TV and stuffs.... watched some "Zorro" dvd i borrowed from KL... quite boring... yar.. then went for dinner at a Thai restaurant near my house there... the food not bad... but abit expensive..
But well... long long one time....

Oh yar.... this coming Wednesday doing my CSB already... 32km route march... plus CWO at the 19th km.... so the other 13km will be walking in wet uniform and boots....
Wow.... that's so nice... imagine having to walk 32km all over again.... haiz....
But well.. at least can get something on the chest.. so that the uniform not so empty.... haha..

Guess that's about it le...Tomorrow still got 1 more day to rest... haha... so long...

Tired... abit pissed....

Firstly... just want to address an issue that i abit pissed with.... next time... any strangers... please do not put some rather un-intelligent or senseless comments on my tag... if you want... leave me a long comment... send me a email... please do not waste my space at the tag board... got any problems... sort them out with me personally...
Thanks (abit) for the cooperation....

Anyway... just booked out from camp... currently feeling qutie tired out from yesterday's NAVEX.... did all the way till around 2300 then go back... then just came online to check my blog... then see some stupid comments(which i deleted already)... it just doesn't help much... makes my blood boil....
Was qutie ok... yesterday did alot of bashing through the heavily vegetated Bukit Timah Nature Reserve... ODAC that time went there a few times... go on the road paths... this time is bash through the jungle... and it was especially hard at night... couldn't find my night check point... anyway they gave the wrong MGR... off by around 200 meteres away... and the problem is... it is very hard to bash around aimlessly to find checkpoints at night...not in BTNR at least...
And i dono go through how many spider webs liao... because basically i was leading most of the time the whole day... so all the spider web cleared by my face liao...

Hmm... guess don't feel like talking much liao... booking in back soon... because tomorrow all the specialist kena "show parade" in the morning... before breakfast at 0615... by RSM... thanks to the few idiots who were late for the briefing in the morning... and still walk like nobody's business... even when a LTC from ATEC was giving us a brief...
And the commanding officer of ATEC is one strict commando man... actually made a Sergeant and an officer stand up right infront of all the commanders for sleeping during his brief....

Anyway... yar... tomorrow got the stupid "show parade".. all the way for the next few days until RSM is happy.... haiz... sian..

Guess that's about it... go prepare for booking in liao.... till this Thursday night then...

Gone....

Well.... don;t bother checking me out for the weekend... booking in soon liao already... tomorrow got NAVEX.... one of the test for CSB.... argghh... short weekend...

Steamboat seission was quite nice.. at least this time we kept within a budget of $10 each... plus the food is sufficient and nice... not too much... haha...
Then at least this type the guys did help in cleaning up.. ok lar... haha...
Wanted to watch "Doom" together one...but in the end all too tired le... felt asleep halfway... so didn't finish the movie...

Sunday... went for soccer in the morning for awhile...they only played awhile..dono why.. like no mood like that...also wanted to get my raquet back from Alvin.. but he forgot to bring... never mind.. then the rest of the day is spent at home slacking around.... watching TV and movies.... watched "Doom"... not abd lar.. qutie action filled...

Monday... went out in the morning to meet some of my platoon specs for movie... "Ice Age 2".... haiz.... really think it's abit waste money...For those who knew me well.. they should know that i only watch horror movies in cinemas... becuase that's where you can feel the horror... haha... watch cartoon abit waste money...
Though i knew they already booked this movie.. i still went because of the gathering... but it turns out that oonly got me, another spec and a man from my platoon.. and 2 specs from ATGM... what the hell man....
But at least the movie was abit funny.. so ok lar...
After that went to meet my SISPEC platoon specs for some lan... played CS for awhile.. opposite Paradiz center there... quite cheap... $1 per hour... was in the winning team.. very shiok.. keep sniping them... but then they change to DOTA... which i don't play... so i watched them play for awhile then go home le...
Watched "Seven Swords".... 1 comment... it sucks...

Haha... oh well... at least i am halfway through the week.. very fast the weekend will come again...

That's about all...
