Birthdays! 22!

And he found a new jawbone of an ass, and put forth his hand, and took it, and slew a thousand men therewith. And Samson said, With the jawbone of an ass, heaps upon heaps, with the jawbone of an ass have I slain a thousand men. With the Jawbone of an Ass --Judges 15:15,16

Cool quote huh. This quote I found actually exists in the Bible. I found it amusing and inspiring at the same time. Wierd huh. Well I have not been bloggin a lot. I think you guys can like pretend this blog never existed at the rate I post. So this could very well be my last post. I dont know. We'll see. But dont expect another post anytime soon after this. I'm sure you guys already dont. Well, anyway, I just turned 22 yesterday. 21 is when you're just turning into an adult. 22 is when its all confirmed. And like the number, I had a double celebration on that day. Had a lunch celebration with my family and GodParents. Then went to my GodParents place with my family and had another celebration there for dinner. Had the Birthday song sang twice as well. Cool huh? That, together with my moms Birthday celebrations the day before and my uncles the day before that, and well, my stomach is ready to make me a suicide bomber. From Dec 1st already, the December celebrations as i call it start. My uncles birthday is 1st, literally, then my moms straight after that, then mine, then theres a short break before my cousins birthday comes, then my bro's on the 21st, then the celebrations of Jesus Christ's birth, then another cousins Birthday on the 27th, then all the birthdays are done for that month. Of course, there's the New Years and Hari Raya celebrations thrown in and well, its like a fiesta at my place! The party doesnt really stop this time of year. Plus, dont forget, got Christmas visitin to do as well. Wah! Party till my hair drops! And I have a lot of hair people. Now thats scary! Well anyway, I'll stop here. I'll go now with some words of wisdom from Ynnib Nai-
We are all born naked and screaming and if you're
lucky that sort of thing won't stop there.

AHM

A Committee is a group of people who individually can do nothing, but as a group decide that nothing can be done.

Today I ran in the Army Half Marathon cause my unit was supposed to. Started slow at first, but when it started to rain, the motivation to run and get to shelter was immense. I actually sprinted for quite a bit. Azri ran with me. He actually ran with me. Thought he would be trying to convince me to walk, but he actually ran. I think he has become fitter due to his hockey training. We made sure safety came 1st and decided to stop at every water point to "properly" hydrate ourselves. The milo was good. So good that some people decided to take the whole carton of milo. My, did they enjoy their milo. And for our efforts? Tomorrow we get the whole day off! Woohoo! Finally I get to have a days rest. Had a busy and tiring weekend. Yesterday I went to Ben Koh's Birthday/Farewell Dinner. Went earlier to play soccer. I was quite satisfied with my performance. Made a few good passes, and even scored a goal. Need to improve my snap shots though and my 1st touch movement, but good luck with myself in training for that. No soccer ball and no idea what to do to improve those things.
As for my training, last Saturday I went to MacRitchie Reservoir to run. Ran the 5+km route. Wasn't used to it and the many slopes going up. Heard my timing was around 29min, but I wasn't really running all out so hopefully next time (if there is a next time), I'll be able to cut down that timing by quite a bit. Was trying to catch up with Adrian. Then the day after, Sunday, me, Gerard, Lionel, Alfred and Michael went to play soccer. I think I played ok but didn't score. Lionel, our star left back, tore his ligament and will be out for a few months. Man, that really sucks. Shows how dangerous soccer can be. Wednesday, I went running at the Kelong near my house. That is about 3+km. After running the MacRitchie route, I felt that the run wasn't much of a challenge. Plus no up slope to deal with. Just one flat straight route. Well, that plus the soccer I played yesterday, and the run today, sums up my training for this week. So that's all folks. And the wise Ynnib Nai has something important to say-
A bargain is something you don't need at a price you can't resist.

2006 Community Shield Winners- Liverpool

Elo! Its been a long time since I blogged huh. Well, after some time, you just get lazy to update. Like lazy for more than a month. Whats been happening since then? Well, I'll just randomly pick significant events that happened. First off, Liverpool won! Woohoo! I must say, although I'm a liverpool fan, I had my doubts. With Chelsea having a line up that boasts of European stars, I must say, it was hard at times to imagine liverpool winning. Don't get me wrong. Liverpool has beaten Chelsea at cup events before. But with new signings Ballack and Shev, it was hard to imagine any team at all right now who can beat them. Plus when I heard that Benitez had rested players like Gerard and Alonso at the start, I almost jumped off from my room window. I know the Community Shield isn't a very big trophy, but still, knowing that Liverpool had drawn first blood was just so sweet! And that alien of a Crouch actually scored the winner some more. Wow! Chelsea fans, suck my butt! Lol! Well next big event was Aisyahs' Wedding Lunch. She was my classmate from SP. Same age as me for those who want to know. Went together with other classmates Jasmine and Sandy. Just so happens that the guys from my class, Indra and Wayne, both could not make it. So I was like the only guy there. But it was still fun. The lunch was fantastic! I must say, 1st class food! Whoever made the food should open an outlet. The girls just gorged themselves silly. Don't want to scare people with details of how much Sandy ate. After that lunch, still went Swensons for more dessert. So full I didnt have dinner. Then accompanied Jasmine to Jurong library where along the way, there was a gang fight at the taxi stand. Not the 1st time I've seen a fight, but I could see Jasmine was worried. Was her 1st time seeing such things according to her. Sandy was the calmest. Walked to the taxi stand to take a taxi just seconds after the fight was supposedly 'finished'. Latest movie I've watched is 'Lady in the Water'. I tought it was a good show cause it was a totally original idea. Just that I would have preferred it if some characters were used more. I liked it but another friend of mine hated it. Actually said 'Superman' was better. I don't know ah. Anyway, a good friend finally ORD'ed. Geoffrey. Really helped us all and we shall never forget it. Farewell, and hope you enjoy this time and I wish you all the best. Started exercising again. Starting slow this month. Been going Bishan Park last week and this week Wednesday, the army is sending me over to the 'Tekong Challenge'. So far. Couldn't they have sent us somewhere nearer like Pulau Besar? Swines! Anyway, will be giving you weekly updates on my training so my next post will be some time next week. I'm a lazy guy so hope you guys could encourage me as I try to get ready for my IPPT test which will hopefully be in November. Well, thats all folks! And here are 'Words-of-Wisdom' from Ynnib Nai-
Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.

2006 World Cup Champions- Italy!

Finally! Italy are Champions of the World! They very much deserved it although they did not play so well attacking wise after the 1st half ended. But they kept to their game and after zizou's booboo, Everyone kind of had that feeling that it was going to go towards Italy's way. You should have seen Zidane. Like that dinosaur with the hard crust for a skull, he lounged forward and headed Marco Materazzi in the chest instead of the ball! It would have been funnier if he had gone on all fours and charged towards his balls! Then at least he can say he made a mistake. But it was no laughing matter for the french. They just seemed lost after that. I wish that someone would have finished the other off in regular time as I had to go to Bedok camp at 8am for lesson. So there went my sleep. Taught lesson like a zombie. Reuben who also watched the match but lives nearer to camp seemed even worse for some strange reason. Like in a trance he walked right in front of me without noticing me. I was half expecting him to suddenly see me, then jump for my neck! Well, just like that the World Cup is over, and we just have to wait for another 4 friggin years for the next one. Talk about having patience. Well, went out with Indra to watch Superman Returns yesterday. Heard a lot of people did not like it, but I tought it was ok. Don't know what everyone expected from that movie. My only problem with it is that it did not have any Super Villian. I mean c'mon! Lex Luthor is getting boring. Seen enough of him in smallville already. For those who want to watch the movie, you might not want to read on as there are spoilers. Guess what kiddies?! Apparently good ol supes had pre-marital sex! Seems like he could not control his super charged *ahem* hormones.... Lol! Haha! Got to watch it to believe it! Bryan Singer you devil you! By the way, check out this website here! Some cool illusions that I really liked! Well, I think I'll best be going now and leave you guys with some cool words of wisdom from Ynnib Nai-
Kids in the back seat cause accidents; accidents in the back seat cause kids.

The Omen 060606

Storm to Wolverine: Logan! We work as a team. Wolverine to Storm: Yeah. Good luck with that!

Just loved that line from X3. Haha... X3 was great! Lots of mutants! Lots of action! And Lots of surprises! Including a surprise ending after ALL the credits have gone by. Wah! Lucky I read up that there is a surprise ending. Was begining to doubt if there was one as the credits kept going, the audience were all leaving, and only me, Choon Kiat and 'Billy' Ong as well as some guy sitting next to us(probably overheard) were the only ones left in the cinema. As for 'The Omen', no, I havent watched it. But it's just a big coincidence that on that date, that scary devil movie is coming out, as well as 2 LTCs' from Indonesia, coming over to 3guards to observe the CCT lesson on that day. Wah! They going to observe Alpha company somemore. Talk about pressure. Their discipline still not up to my liking yet somemore. Hope they get their 'game on', on that date. Speaking of surprises and discipline, today Bravo Company was damn good. I myself was shocked. Didnt play, behaved themselves, was very 'garang', very agresive, and gave their best shouting. Maybe I was teaching the wrong company. But cannot be. They must have been on some drug. Maybe I should ask for some. Had some great times with my poly friends some time back eating dinner(Sorry about the Rice Bowl :p) and watching a very scary FA cup final at Chijmes. Liverpool likes to give their fans an exciting and LITERALY heart stopping game. Lost count how many times my heart stopped that day. Was shocked that Jas was actually interested in it. So Cool! Well, I'll finish off here. Leave you with some words of wisdom from Ynnib Nai- A day without sunshine is like, night.

FLEMP Day!

What helluva day is that? Well, I wanted the heading to be a day with all the important days that is near this date all roled into one. Get it? No? Scratching your head? Now scratching your bum? Well scratch no more! This is what I meant- Its Free meals-Labour-Election-Movie-Progress Day! They are all connected as well. Yeah! Well a few days ago, we all got our progress package. And being the very cautious and carefull (aka 'kiasu') citizens that we are, we straight away did our government proud by quickly drawing out our progress package money and squandering it! Yeah! Me, I havent splurged yet, but I used some of it to watch a movie at 'The Cathy'. 'The Cathy' is a cool place. I went to Cinema 1 which is also known as 'The Grand'. Was ushered to my seat by a cute gal which was nice and the leg room there is fantastic. Lol! It had a big ass screen with big red curtains. It was really a grand experience. But no shops are opened at that 6 storey or so complex. Just the cinema and the smell of construction glue and paint is opened. Watched 'The Wild'. Its an ok show. A really bad ass show is hostel. The most goriest movie I have ever seen. Easily 3 times worse than 'The Saw' and 'Kill Bill' combined! Indra of course enjoyed it. Its by Quentin Tarantino by the way and its R21. So kiddies, sorry but you cannot watch. Saw Janice there at the end of that movie. Nice to catch up with poly friends of course. Always a pleasure. Well, elections is comin up. My area is a walkover as usual which is great. Can't be bothered with politicians. Indra has to vote. He says he's gona vote for PAP. I wanted to know why. Thought he had an intelligent answer. Don't know why I thought that. I thought wrong of course. He's voting for them cause they gave him the progress money. WOW! "Don't bite the hand that feeds you" he said. Nice. Considering they are feeding us back our money that we gave them through taxes. Yes. Votes can be bought. If I had to vote, I think I'll just spoil my vote. The opposition needs someone strong and noticeable, with a plan to win votes and outsmart the PAP. The PAP can have my thumb up my own ass with their "We can't have freedom of speech" crap. Can't podcast and write things regarding the election on the internet. What the...? Can't we trust our own people to make good judgements on weather a report is telling lies or not and trust them to investigate reports and make a good choice? Are we that bad that, that can't be done? Well, that aside, Labour day is tommorrow. Happy Holiday people of Singapore! I realised that all my posts are done about once every 2 months except this post which is slightly earlier. So using tommorrow to rest and the progress money, my moms' office colleaque gave my family a lunch treat 'jus for the fun of it'. Wow! My mom sure knows how to make friends. And later, my Aunt wants to treat us for dinner. All these treats all in one day! Wow! Since Easter just went by, check this out- http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-5427138374898988918&q=Easter+Bunny&pl=true. Well, I think this is the longest post from me ever! So I'll stop here. Don't worry (Or maybe you should!). I'll still provide you with your dose of wise sayings from Ynnib Nai-
A President of a democracy is a man who is always ready, willing, and able to lay down your life for his country.

It's March!

You can learn more about the above pic, the coming general elections and 'the fight' between the PAP and the opposition at talkingcock.com. The one place where the news can be trusted. hehe... Anyway, back to our regular scheduled program- I just realised I have a lot of friends who are born in March. Just last Saturday, I had lots of offers to go out. 2 Bithday requests and another 2 to just go out and hang out. Then I realised that this coming Saturday I will be out celebrating my poly friends birthday alongside another poly classmate. The following week is my church friends birthday. All that plus those born in february and I'm trying to not blow my money out of the bank. You know, I'm sure humans have a mating season like animals. Cos like it gets pretty quiet for awhile, and then all of a sudden, like as if it hunting season, holy smokes, the birthday people are shooting you with birthday cards the moment the months of December and March come up. Bang! You know, last Saturday was funny cos it got me thinking, "Now, I got a lot of offers to go out. But when the time comes when I really want to go out, all of a sudden, everyone will disappear." Just like a scene from a show with a cross between The Twilight Zone and Just for Laughs. But doesn't that happen? One moment your swamped with requests to go out, then all of a sudden, u can actually hear crickets chirping and ants eating.
HAHA! That's life. Anyway, Ive been told I'm getting soft when I teach. I blame it on 3 SIR. Actually, 3 SIR men have shown me a new way to teach. It is one that is un-army like, so yeah, naturally people look back and say, "What the heelll you doing?" But aiya, it was supposed to be a relaxed day, so enuf said! I'm going to leave you with the wise and impressionable words of Ynnib Nai- Laugh Alone..... And the World thinks you're an Idiot!

Happy Chinese New Year!

To Tyler: Jesus loves you....... but everyone else thinks you're an asshole!

Wow! Everyone has been bugging me to update my blog. Is it really that popular? Cool! If it's that great, maybe I can soon get people to advertise on it and I can earn some money from that. Even cooler! Well anyway, enough of talking rubbish(Like that's going to happen). On to not-so-cool stories on my life. Well folks, after failing my IPPT by 7sec in my 2.4km run, and staying in as a result for about 7 weeks, I've finally passed and I'm free! Woohoo! Staying in actually wasn't so bad. It's just the nagging from a certain someone every 10pm at night that I couldn't stand. So as I ran my 2.4 again, he, and certain gay others were on my mind as I rushed toward the finish line during my 2.4km run. That mind game actually worked as this time I ran towards the finish line like a dog with rabbies (hope I spelt it right) and got there with 10 seconds away from achieving the silver standard. Well, now that's over, I can go back to my slack ways. Haha! But nah, tomorrow, sunday, I'll be going to East Coast to run with my poly friend Indra. Today was a quiet day. Felt lazy, so decided to stay home. I still haven't bought my sneakers. Im supposed to buy my new shoes for the English New Year. Now it's Chinese New Year and I still haven't bought it. Need someone with good taste like, I can't believe I'm going to say this, Lionel or a girl to help me choose like My cousin Rachel or Jamaliah. Well I think I'll end here. Leave you with some wise fortune cookie sayings for the Chinese New Year- Always remember you're unique, just like everyone else.

7sec = 2 Weeks

Yup! That's the new math equation I found out when I failed my IPPT 2.4km run by 7 seconds. Pathetic. Because of that, now I have to stay in SPT, or as it is now called, Army Fitness Centre(AFC), for 2 weeks of running and training. Well, the bright side is that I'm going to save a helluva lot on transportaion and meals. With Christmas coming up, that can only be good. And I can now get back into tip top shape. With my off days and duty staff duties to perform, it's not so bad. All my five static stations were of silver standard. Made some improvements as well on 2 stations. I was so scared of my static stations, that I concentrated my training on those stations only. I trained so well, that for the 1st time, when I jumped for my standing broad jump station, I got silver standard on the 1st try. For some reason, my shuttle run also improved. Got 9.8 seconds. I've never hit below 10 seconds for my shuttle run before. But the 1 station that I thought I will at least do ok in, I in the end failed it by 7 seconds. Well, this is my chance to make things right again at least. Maybe I failed because I ate too much during my birthday. :P Well, speaking of my birthday celebrations, I must say it was a hit. Surprisingly there was a band there to play on my birthday. And everything there really looked grand. Everyone who came made the celebrations even grander. I would like to thank everyone for making my 21st birthday so special. It was great! Well, that's all I have today. And Ynnib Nai is back with his ever wonderfull words of wisdom -
Nothing is fool-proof to a talented fool. =)

My 21st!!!

WOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! Its my 21st Birthday today folks and I feel on a high! My uncle's birthday was on the 1st, my mom's was on the 2nd which was yesterday, and mine? Its Today!!! Wooohoooo!!! Feels good for some strange reason. Haha! Later I'll be having me party at Trader's Hotel at 7pm at Cafebiz@The Piazza. Paying $40 per head, so please don't drop by uninvited unless you don't mind paying yourself, hehe... Those uninvited, sorry, but I could only bring along a few people and deciding who were the few was mind shattering! Like to thank my parents for organising such an expensive party. Don't know how many people you had to rob, cheat and steal from to organise this so thank you and thank you for loving me all these years. Like to thank family members and friends, especially Indra. He of all people, is the only friend wanting to continue keeping in touch with me by organising outings with me at such a regular basis, besides my church friends of course. Went out to watch 'Doom' which was quite an ok show. I give it a 7/10. That among other movies as well. It's pretty cool. Thanks bro! Well quite a few people will be there. Family, relatives, loved ones, friends, Nearly 50 people altogether. Expensive sia. By the way, did you guys know there are no malay commandoes? Found that out just recently. And that no malays are allowed to enter Hendon camp? I heard about it from a friend. Strange. If it's true, no wonder that there are people who don't trust malays. If the government doesn't trust them to be in certain 'high' positions in the army, it's no surprise that there are people in Singapore who dont trust malays. Well anyway, I see I have sidetracked. I'll end my post here. Ynnib Nai can't leave you with his usual wise sayings today as he too is out celebrating and partying today. Sorry guys. But he'll return in the next post I can assure you that, with more "how the hell did he know that" sayings. So till next time, Enjoy! =D

Just Darn Bored!

Being in the military is like a blow job- The closer you get to discharge, the better you feel!

Yup! That's the tittle of my blog. Not bored in life. Sometimes my life can be too exciting. What I meant is that I'm (Gasp!) getting bored of posting posts on my blog. Its getting boring having to regularly update my blog. Plus now I need to be more carefull about what I post. Singapore is now cracking down on bloggers that post racist or malicious remarks. I have not done so yet but I need to be more carefull from now on, on what I write in my posts. EURASIONS ARE ARSEHOLES! Shit! There! I said it. I even used bad language. Now I'm gonna be arrested. Crap! I used bad language again! Anyway... Just want to warn you people, I've watched this war movie entittled "The Great Raid", which is also based on a true story of a rescue mission during World War 2. Don't watch it! It's not great at all! In fact, it was boring! They should have warned us by giving the movie the tittle, "The Boring Raid". First time I slept in a movie theatre. Paid 9 freakin 50 to sleep in air-conditioned comfort. What the...???!!! I've watched Doom. It's ok. It's totally a guy show. All action. And I mean all action! It had a good lookin gal in the show, but there was no lovey dovey thing going on. The girl didnt even get a peck on the lips. Just all out guns-a-blazing, kill-em-all! kinda show. Got movies I want to watch, but with my financial assets literally flying out of my hand, I'm not sure if I will get to watch any movies. Already, I think I'm gonna miss 'The Legend of ZORRO'. Well, It's holidays galore this week. Wish you all that you guys totally hang loose and enjoy yourselves this week. Long post. So I'll end now. Here's the ever usefull Ynnib Nai- Everyone has a photographic memory. Some just don't have film.

Back Online!

Yahoo! No, not the website but the fact that I'm screaming for joy! My PC has been down for a long time now and now it's been reformatted and I can once again surf the deep and dagerous waters of the internet and talk crap on my blog like what I'm doing now. Haha! But for some strange and smelly reason (no, I did not fart), I cannot use the message box. You know, the one under 'Comments?'. Or anyone elses message box in my friends blogs, for that matter, excepts Adeline's. So for now, I'll jus reply using my blog. Shahida- I did not delete your blog link. Just that my blog went bonkers and everyone's link got erased. So I had to put every link back, but I could not remember your blogs address. SO there! Jasmine- I is for Ian. Bet you didn't know that =P Indra- Yo dude! Don't know if you still read my blog. But I read yours, and all I can say is that I'm here for you dude. For the moment, just nurse your leg back to health. Well, poeple have stumbled on my blog. Namely Tyler. Sorry dude. He stumbled and fell and dislocated his shoulder. Next time be carefull ok? Haha..... kidding. Well, I finally passed out as a Close Combat Instructor. Very hard to keep fit. I'm posted to teach units in the Changi area. Not that I'm complaining. Love the Changi team. But sometimes, by the time lesson finish, I rush off to Toa Payoh Stadium, it'll be very late already. Then hungry and prefer to eat rather then train. Hard to self motivate. Run by myself boring also. Well, I've ranted and bored you to death long enough. So I'll end here and do what I do on almost every post, and that is, leave you guys with the ever wise sayings of Ynnib Nai- If you have a bad cough, take a large dose of laxatives. Then you will be afraid to cough.

Graduation

Well, last week, I finally recieved my diploma in Information Communication Technology from Singapore Polytechnic. Got to see my poly mates once again like Janice, Fizah, Indra, Nqiap, Asri, etc. It was great as I got to book out from camp. Training has been physically tough. 8am to 5.30pm all out training all the way with only the lunch break to save us and give us that bit of rest. They do have 5 minute breaks now and then but that aint enough, though of course I would take it as its better than nothing. I've been posted to the east side to train the commandos, 3rd guards and an infantry unit. Its freaking far from my place. We were all promised that we will be posted to a place near our home, but in the end, the army being what it is, shocked us by spreading all my batch mates to places far from home. It will take me about one an a half hours to reach those camps from my place. Plus I must be there at 7.30am, meaning I must wake up at some unearthly hour and leave my place when everyone is just waking up. Cramp.... Anyway, I've watched the V for Vendetta trailer and its actually pretty good. Its stars Natalie Portman and is taken from DC's Vertigo Comics. It's pretty good and you can view the trailer here. Well I got to go. But as usual, I'll leave you with the good ol sayings of Ynnib Nai-

We wonder why the dogs always drink out of our toilets, but look at it from their point of view: Why do humans keep peeing into their water bowls?

Unarmed Combat Instructor

Product label On Nytol Sleep Aid: "Warning: May cause drowsiness." (One would hope.)


Yup! That's my vocation people. It's confirmed! I'm going to be an Unarmed Combat Instructor. Here's the information-
POSTING: G6-Army, REPORTING AT: Pasir Laba Camp, Blk. 130, Room #03-02, TIME: 8am. Yup! I'm going in. Now just have to 'tahan' 5 weeks of in-camp training. Should be able to pull it off. Watched Batman Begins. Didn't think Christian Bale could pull off playing Bruce Wayne and Batman, but in the end, he did! Infact, I think he's the best Batman ever! Better than Michael Keaton. He does it so well. And with Morgan Freeman, Ken Watanabe, Michael Kaine and Liam Neelson inside, it makes the show so much better. And the car looks like a tank, but when u watch the show, all of sudden, the car is one cool vehicle! The show was pretty good. I give it a 7/10. The director really did a good show by showing 'the real Batman'. Batman was actually cool in the show. The movie was made pretty dark as well. Darker than the Michael Keaton Batman. The next movie I can't wait to see is Fantastic 4. Well that's all I got to say. I leave you with the ancient and ever wise sayings of Ynnib Nai-
Never pass up an opportunity to pee.

P.O.P

Passing Out Parade. That's what it means. It means I've finally passed out from a recruit to a Private. Finally. Now I have 11 days of leave which ends on the 19th of June. So from now till then, it's, FREEEEEEDOOOOMMM!!!!!!! Woohooo!!! Well, hope I get to go to the School of Physical Training camp at Jurong to become a Close Combat Instructor. Can't believe I had to go for a National Education tour on my block leave. So actually my block leave is 12 days. Well, If I get my dream to become a Close Combat Instructor, I just have to "tahan" 5 weeks of in camp training, learning to do splits and flying kicks. The splits is going to kill me, but I jus need to "tahan" 5 weeks. After 5 weeks, I get to book out everyday at 6pm. Cool huh? More freedom than most army vocations, but the pay is low, and my rank can at most go to Corporal. But I value the freedom as the most important thing. And there'll be no S.O.C for me and I don't have to "chong sua" in the jungle or wherever. The good life. Hope to see Batman Begins. Well, that's all I got to say. Leave you with a wise proverb from Ynnib Nai- It's Not How You Pick Your Nose, But Where You Put The Booger!

European Champions!

Liverpool has won the Champions League! Champions of Europe for 2005! Wow! From 3-0 down, came back to equalise, and then Jerzy Dudek saves 3 Shevchenko shots! One from a penalty which he had to score to keep Milan in. WOw! And to top it off, 9 more days to P.O.P! Woohoo!!!! Next week will be really hectic. IPPT test, S.O.C, Passing Out Parade rehersals, games day, recruits night, etc. Last Friday I had Basic Assault Course (B.A.C). Had to backcrawl in mud and shit. Well cant wait for 7th of June! Walk on! Walk on! With hope, in your hearts. And you'll, never, walk, alone. YOU'LL NEVER WALK ALONE! Walk on!

Long Weekend!!!

Sign on a church bulletin board: You aren't too bad to come in, You aren't good enough to stay out.

Woohoo!!! Its a public holiday and that means a long weekend. Finally. Its great to have a break from army. Now I'm the platoon I.C. for this week. Even more stress! Well I'm playing soccer with my platoon tomorrow morning. Will be going for 7am mass and then head on down to yishun to play. Then going to watch 'Star Wars: Episode 3 Revenge of the Sith' in the evening. Busy day tomorrow. Well I slacked when I reached home. Fell asleep at around 4pm. Was really tired. I had AGR in the morning, which is running for 25 minutes at a certain pace. This whole week from wednesday has been nothing but running. Run, run and more running. Thursday, our company was supposed to go for some army safety exhibition. Got all dressed up in my smart 4, some got scolding for not shaving, kiwi'd my boots, got on the ferry which brought us to Changi ferry terminal, waited half an hr for the bus, 1 bus came, platoon 1 went, the rest of us waited for the other busses, the other busses never came, the company 2IC said there was a cock up at HQ with the busses, so we jus ate and drank at the ferry terminal, waited for a ferry to take us back, went back, and slacked for the whole day. Platoon 1 came back in the evening. That's the army! Cocksters. Well glad we could slack though. Well thats all I have folks. I leave you with an excerpt taken from the army- The company sergent is briefing the recruits: "For the next ten weeks the commanding officer will be your father, and I will be your mother. Incidentally we are not married, so you know what that makes you..."

Hello....???!!!

Well, wonder if anyone have realised that I've finally got a new post up. What's up in my life so far? 4 letters- A-R-M-Y. So nothing much. I book out on Saturday and book back in on Sunday. So pathetic. Not much time to do anything at all. I try to go out, but the time limit is really very small and so even if I do go out, can't do much. I try to read my email. Well saw one of my poly friends- Indra, in army. He is in Pegasus Company. He and Wayne and Nqiap all in the same Company. They are my poly classmates. He and Wayne in the same section some more. If I had passed my Nafa, I might have been in the same company and section as them. What a waste! Oh well, already made new 'so called' friends in the army already anyway. But I hope I can meet up with Indra, Wayne and Nqiap next week on Saturday as next week will be their 1st book out. Hehe.... Good for them. Well don't want to waste too much time typing so much. Have to do more surfin and watch more tv while I still can. So I'll just leave you with wise sayings from the ever wise and ever reliable Ynnib Nai- Always forgive your enemies, Nothing annoys them so much.

End of Days!

Well, I decided to post one just before I go in. Watched two more movies during the week. One movie that I watched was Hitch. Infact, I watched it twice in one day. Don't ask why, it was one of those days. Anyway, it was funny. It was one of those funnier romantic comedies that I've watched so far. I won't give a rating for this one though. I'll just say, if you've got a significant other, go and watch it with him or her. Another movie that I finally got to see (thank goodness!), was A Series of Unfortunate Events. It was a good movie. I give it a 8/10 rating. It had a morally meaningfull message. WoW! Say that again really fast! Haha!!! You tried didn't you?! Haha!!! Anywho.... Back to my post, what I wanted to say as well was to not watch it for the funny element eventhough Jim Carrey is in it, because the movie was not meant to be a comedy. It's has a Harry Potter type of setting with strange creatures lurking with strange props and out of this world places. The story is about 3 kids, who became orphans after their parents died. They have different gifts each. The boy remembers everything he reads, the girl is like Mcgyver, making inventions and things with ordinary things found lying around, and the baby, who is the cutest and funniest in the show, her gift is she's good at biting! So they are relocated to stay at strange relatives houses. Jim Carrey plays the evil relative Count Olaf who is out to get their inheritance money, no matter what it takes! So I recommend for you peeps to sprint to the nearest cinema NOW to catch it seeing as how the show is running out. Well, sadly, that's all folks. Will be SOME TIME before I post again. So till then, Ciao for now! And the wise Ynnib Nai will leave you with his teachings on life - Man who scratches backside should not bite fingernails.
