cars...

hah! i'm back again... and i'm just doing a simple comparision of cars

mitsubishi lancer 1.6(M) - 46k
toyota vios 1.5 (M) - 51.5k
honda city 1.5 (M) - 56k
subaru impreza 1.6 (M) - 52.4k

excluding all those cheap china brands, these are the next best already. oh and mazda apparently isn't too forthcoming with their prices on their official website, and i'm just too tired now to look elsewhere for prices. oh well the media team has left the office, so now i can have a sound sleep till 5.45. goodnight world... again...

we're all waiting for something... something to come our way

a little checklist...

suddenly just felt like writing down some things i want to do after army. and yes i'm still in camp...

@ pick up playing the piano again. got alot more scores at home waiting to be played. want to find final fantasy song too
@ repair/maintain my bike and go cycling. don't think i'll buy a new one cos it'll cost way too much
@ learn to rollerblade!!!
@ go snorkeling
@ and of course to fund all this, find some tuition so that i at least will have some form of income. not used to getting pocket money from the folks anymore

and there's one thing i really don't want to do after i ORD, and that is enter uni early under the programme they got for NS guys. because that would mean i'll have very little time to do the things mentioned above =( but i wonder if they would understand...

the price of AHM 2007

in the eyes of a regular in my unit, this might be daunting and stressful, but at least they've done this before. for those not in the organising unit, they might just seem sian coz they've gotta run 10/21km. but for people like me (i.e. an NSF in the organising unit), it really is a whole new experience.

well basically my PS is in charge of ALL, and yes i mean ALL, the water and 100 plus that goes into AHM this year. so obviously we got roped in to help him collect and redistribute it all. all 97520kg of it. yes, that's ALMOST 100,000kg of fluid. for the 65000 participants in the run. i even managed to meet up with derek and joshua who came to collect the damn water. never felt so sick of ice mountain water in my life hahaha tonight i'm on COS duty, and managed to sneak online to post this, but after my duty ends tomorrow morning i'll be helping to pack lunch for the 2000 people who are cleaning up after all you runners. so the moral of the story is... i know you might be shagged... you might be pissed... you might be irritated... but please don't throw your cups all along the road, and for goodness sake don't waste the water that me and my guys carried around until we got bruises on our arms. we'd appreciate your little efforts greatly =)

so AHM prep is in full swing now. some of my friends have been at the bay area since 7.30 this morning. other groups have been in the cookhouse since 2pm packing and delivering rations for those at the bay area, and then there's those of us left in camp holding down the fort and printing last minute documents, helping figure out where the hell everyone is, and then there are those who just came back to camp a while ago, and will have to leave at 11.30pm. ahhh the adventures of an NSF tangled up in singapore's largest public sports event. such an eye opener indeed, and definitely more interesting than just running in it.

on another note... the last week of august is approaching, and wallaby is just getting nearer. means packing is gg to start!!! i soooo want to get an MC. i'm like such a good boy... since the beginning of NS 1 year and 4 months ago, i haven't been on a single day of MC or att C. sick also drag my ass to camp. sometimes really wonder where i get all my motivation from also. i guess it'll all vanish once i'm back from australia hahaha till then... last burst of fire i guess.

wah the phone is ringing again... sianzzz... i already sense arrows flying towards me *cue darth vadar music*

*pant pant*

fuzz: weekend COS sucks man!!! hahaha

we're all waiting for something... something to come our way

party by the bay

ndp passed by without incident for me... thankfully, since i'm still on standby. still got rumours tt we'll be recalled on the 25, since must book in that day to prep for AHM on the 26. but the big problem is... I'M ON COS DUTY ON THE 25!!!!!!! if kenna recall will have to make alot of calls which is seriously just something i don't need man, especially on what should be a nice quiet saturday. just what i don't need man. but because i'm on duty on saturday i don't think i'll have to go on sunday, unless they're really that evil and make me rush down after my duty.

luckily i recorded the ndp man. coz the first time around i couldn't see derek! but on more careful scrutiny and the wonderful button called "pause", i found derek on tv!!! hahaha quite cool...

other happenings... not much lah. just part of my normal lifestyle nowadays, so not much to report. oh yeah i got a 1gb zen v plus from chip, since she doesn't want it anymore. and yes i did pay for it.

packing for wallaby will start soon. that'll be a hell of a few weeks. don't wanna imagine how much tissue i'd have to use on my runny nose, which would definitely come by thanks to the ability of SAF camps to attract dust.

chinese new year 2008... the best CNY of my life!!!

yuzheng: tt was my second time to chemical defence. seriously didn't look forward to it again hahaha

we're all waiting for something... something to come our way

august is here!!!

i'm just 6 months away from ord... that's 180 days. i can actually feel it coming!!! but there are quite a few obstacles in the way, such as ahm and wallaby. and of course as with this unit there'll always be unforeseen stuff that decides to pop up now and then. and duties are overflowing yet again, since there aren't any corporals left behind to do COS duty. ahhh wtf... army sucks. have to wake up before 5 tomorrow just to get to PLC for chemical defence for my brigade guys. GAS! GAS! GAS! and see grown man cry... and cough and spit and curse and swear. but i guess the last 4 are rather common sights. got COS duty the day before ahm... so i'm not so sure how much part i'll have to play in it. at most go there shagged hahaha

many's coming back on the 19th... it's a sunday but not sure exactly what time she'll be back though. hopefully it's not at night so that can go meet her. i'm guessing... she'll be a bigger many, since we all know that ang-moh food is really quite... well let's just say it has the unique ability to make you bigger hahaha don't worry many i'm sure it won't have such ad adverse effect on you. and as to why black guys keep coming on to you... can ask derek lah, maybe he'll have a deeper insight than all of us hahaha

sorry ah derek can't meet u this friday since i've got duty. well at least we'll definitely go sentosa after many comes back. eh shit... the wkend after many comes back got duty and ahm, so can't go with u'll le, then september i don't wanna even think about how much more shit there'll be. nvm time can be made... i hope...

now say it with me... GAS! GAS! GAS!!!
