   Just when I thought I had gotten used to life in One Guards, the schedule became very slack! haha.. It has been a really slack week for me. Reason being most of ppl from other platoons are all out on course. the company strength has dropped to about 2.5 platoon size. Full strength would be 5 platoons. And next week Scout platoon would go on course too!! They've been wearing FBO for a 2 km route march before every single meal.. must be really sickening. :P lucky me!! =)

   When so many important appointment holders like the company 2IC, OC, Scout PC, ATGM PC, Moltar PC, Pioneer PC are all out on course and our very own BSO just back from course, it seems we couldn't get a safety officer or safety rover to supervise the major events of a regular week.. haha.. thus, no SOC and IPPT test for the past week. Lotsa afternoon naps too!! haha... on a particular day, as i could remember, Eeping managed to sleep approximately 4 hours of the day away.. haha.. me? i didn't realli sleep much. i was busy reading "A Time To Kill". it's a veri nice book. i've never read so fast before. my progress was stunning myself!! i finished reading half the book in the past week in camp when i took a much longer time to read the first part of the book. heh...

   Yes!!i've completed painting my cupboard. it's black n white now!! newcastle colors rulez once again!! the new coat of paint on my dull cupboard certainly help me in bringing up my spirits.. yay!! and the satisfaction sure weighs in too course i did it all by myself. heh.. imagine the joy n excitement of a child who've just filled a blank page of his coloring book.. i wish i could somehow smuggle my digital camera in to snap some pix. JunYi's pink cupboard with flowers would be documented i'm sure!! yurks!! so girly for a man like him.. urgh.. utter disgrace...

   Saturday was peaceful with apple. had lunch out at a nearby coffeeshop. their western meal sux big time! dun bank on me buying from them again. then we did simple things at home. i made coffee. watched a vcd. surfed net together and chit-chatted. she played nintendo by herself too! haha... and yeah, i missed drinking coffee in camp coz the cookhouse doesn't make coffee in the morning for us. i made 2 cups for each of us. though it was a simple day, i thoroughly enjoyed my time with her.. sent her home around 6pm and made my way to uncle john's place.

   sunday morning started for me early. real early. i awoke at 0630h to shut my alarm on my handphone off. then i lazily went back to sleep. i was awoken abruptly by a call from kp. it was 0700h. i told him i was awake but i realized i couldn't possibly meet him on time at 0715h. awkwardly as i tried to think of something to say to delay the meeting time, i was happy to hear from him that he thinks we should meet around 0725h. hurriedly i brushed up and browsed through the newpaper. i didn't touched the pc ok? haha...i had to restrict myself a lil' though. n i din touch the sunday times either. i went out knowing i'll still be late for the 0725h meeting. Ooops... that's a trademark of mine. always late. i'm trying i'm trying ok?

   half packing my bagpack of a change of clothes, my discman, my new book "Hide And Seek", and sandals while walking to the bus stop proved too difficult and i surrendered by stopping a stairway away from the bus stop to re-organize my stuff. it had to happen!! it just had to happen!! Bus 159 came n left. i couldn't do anything but watched helplessly and thinking of the "if only"s .... Wrong decision again...

   Amazingly i managed to be so engrossed in my new book at the bus stop n on the next bus that came along that i missed my stop!!! it juz couldn't be my day.... even more amazingly i reached amk mrt station before kp. haha... feathers of the same flock together... kekkekekeke...

   after soccer at YewTee, we met darren's gf.. got a free ride from them to woodlands mrt. this is the first time i've seen dn's gf in face. she's decent, nice and friendly. lucky dude... heh... well, dn's constant telling us that she's quite small size n thin proved true.. haha.. oh yeah, n darren's driving need some brushing up n a tad more confidence. he's a snail on the expressway. constantly driving at 60-70 range speed. haha.. we had a good laugh at him.. but who knows? i could fare worse eh? haha... i ain't even got a license. :P

   kp n i alighted at causeway point. we shopped around n i had my lunch at BK. kp is considering getting GameBoy Advance SP too... that after Eeping got his on friday night during our nights off time. there i told u so... one guards is so slack that Eeping has to resort to buying Gameboy to play during our huge amount of time slacking in bunk... haha... 185 for the set n 70 for the game. total 255. nope not for me. i still have the feeling that gameboy is for kids... haha.. i'll rather get another book.

   yeah, that's all i'm gonna write. i missed playing cm. i'll try to play cm now... i heard this coming week is realli an even slacker week!! haha.. more joy... 3-4 nights off i heard.. haha.. hope it's true... now now... i wanna make a new cuppa coffee before starting on cm... heh.. good byee pals..
