this is the sunday updates.. haha.. machiam like reporting news.. haha.. was realli tired. slept till 1100am. long time since i woke up around this timing. not pleased though. coz i noe the ntu talk starts 1115h. hurriedly sms jm ask him meet 1215h at amk last cabin. went to brush up then surf the net. sms jm ask him got receive my sms or not juz before i abt to go out. he still din reply. scared he still sleeping so i called him up. as i expected, he still sleeping. met at 1245h in the end. lucky i called. else i wait for nothing. took a cab down to amk mrt. coz i surfed too much again. Ooops.. at least i ain't late. tho he was early..
took the mrt down to bugis. went to hotel intercontinental singapore level 2. got some brochures, advice etc.. informed that my course ain't applicable for entry into communication studies as i had hope for. the other i liked was art, media n design. but i got no drawing fingers. needless to say about the portfolio i need to apply. so i guess i'll back out n not be "bu zhi liang li". bump into nigel at the ntu talk n oso hongwen at kinokuniya. he was also there for the talk. he is a much betta person for art, design n media.. hmmm.. so envious..
very sian n sad lor. coz i felt i shouldn't have studied EI in poly. should hv studied mass communications at NP. hmmm.. regret will get me no where. hmm.. betta use the time to think of better solutions. haha.. mdis can't compare with ntu or nus lei.. but it's still an alternative.. hopefully nus one i can make it. else realli hv to depend on mdis le.. or computer engineering or computer science le.. gotta consult lynn sometime..
not wanting to bump into a fren, who told me was going to the ntu fair too, i left pretty fast. didn't go for the communication studies talk coz i tot that since they won't realli consider me i shan't waste my time there. we went to ps to catch a movie. Meet the Fockers.. finally got to watch it. yeah. nice movie. funny n sweet. juz as good as the prequel if not betta.. haha.. oh ya, after buying the tix, i went into the arcade n played drums.. haha.. i love to hit the drums. hmmm.. maybe i should learn.. haha..
headed to amk centre for a hair cut at the barber. then bought take away. went home blog. then now about to rush off to camp le... happy to hv gotten the chance to hv a lil' chat with her again.. :) till next friday night(hopefully..) we meet again be it online or face to face.. cyaz...

Hi guys.. here are the updates for saturday.. booked out on saturday around 0630h due to the combat shoot on friday. got back camp at around 2300h. finish cleaning arms, personal items and ourselves up around 0130h.. slept around 0300h. awoke around 0500h to do some area cleaning to get ready for inspection at 0600h. oni slept around 2 hours plus. however i'm the type that might find it a lil' hard to get up but once awoken won't realli "lai chuang" one loh.. reached home around 0730h.
busy on my pc all da way.. until around 1100h alexa asked me out! went shopping. had cheapo lunch and visited the body shop sale. lotsa ppl.. mostly woman, young ladies and girls.. hmmm... wonder how all these ppl noe abt it.. alexa told me she knew abt it thru a forum. anyway bought some facial scrubs and colognes. rather cheap la.. n alexa, no need to feel guilty thinking u saboh me to spend la..
walked alot with her. from orchard to taka to far east to paragon to the OG building to orchard emerald to the OG building again then back to midpoint orchard plaza then to meridien hotel. came out with a paperbag heavier n some additional scratches on my atm card. haha.. then we head towards ps for a drink. i got snapple. now i'm left with the green tea flavour which i haven tried..
pretty tired from the walking and the apparent lack of sleep. split with her n met the guys for steamboat buffet at marina south. we "route marched" there from the mrt station coz the crowd waiting for bus was unbearable. the idea of having dinner there was tarnished by this experience. coz the service ain't very good. we had wanted a table but the guy ask us to take a table beside a rubbish bin, beside a pile of ashes from incense paper burning and under a tree where leaves were additional herb-like ingredient to our food. pretty furious some of the guys.
had some arcade games after i felt bloated n dun wanna eat le. they carried on eating a while more before linking up with me at the arcade. went home soon after. pretty tired le.. chit chat with her on msn a while but fell asleep on my bed while rolling around in the midst of the chat coz she was pretty busy with her work n i didn't wanna disturb her..
awoke around 0500h. off the tv n pc. went back to bed. zzZzzZzzZ....

i'm back to norm again. back to the cruelty in reality. on the sturdy ground with the help of my not-so-stable footing (ankle injuries la..). no matter how i will bounce back. life has got to go on. sometimes it ain't anyone's fault but i tend to push the blame to myself.
i can't deny my heart. can't refrain from being true to my blog and my frens. i juz have got to tell them the truth. it burdens me perhaps. a person used to often giving and putting in the maximum effort with deep felt sincerity. it's not me to lie and not confess. i lie sometimes. but usually they dun last more than few mins. i consider them as a joke. a lil' horse play.. so dun loathe me for my playfulness coz i'm melvyn the playful, cheeky but truthful fren of yours. i juz want a lil' fun sometimes. i've straightened my thoughts. i'm determined. i'm positive. i'm Ready To Strike!!
ok.. enough of the serious bit. hmmm.. nights off again. last night got nights off tonite again. hmmm.. some of my bunk mates are skeptical of what's to come. well,.. i take it as a way of repaying my friday night burnt coz of section live firing. wish me luck tomolo.. i dun want to reshoot n reshoot. do it once do it good. *keeps fingers crossed*

ok, an update on today. Sunday 23rd January 2005. slept 3am on Saturday. awoke 7.15am this morning. met the guys at 8.15am reached the soccer field at 8.30am. early. match supposed to start at 9am. took to the field as striker and scored a goal within 15 mins.
Put through one-on-one, i tried to loft the ball into the net. i chipped the ball over the goalie. then juz as everyone tot i had scored an audacious chip, it hit the bar. not to be denied, i ran backwards to the loose ball n volleyed the ball low into the other corner of the net. lucky? i dunno.. i'd rather score with my chip la.. it's nicer.. but i'll settle for any goal.
another 15 mins in, i sprained my right ankle again.. haiz. i hobbled out. replaced by another player. sat out the last 10 mins of the half. n watched as my team continue to score. second half started and i still out. left with around 15 mins on the clock, i entered the fray again. this time as right midfield. the score then was already 6-1. then soon after it became 7-1.
i scored my second of the day to make it 8-1. i collected another loose ball from a shot the keeper pushed out. i shot to the left of the goalie. but it was blocked by a defender on the line. i latch on to the loose ball n whacked it in. juz one short of a hatrick. haiz. i didn't manage it lah. if only i hadn't been injured i would hv got it loh.. sianz. but nvm lah. must be satisfied with what u have else u'll never be happy. =)
kp dropped dn & picked up jm at northpoint n drove us back to my place. dn have some family stuff to attend to. we played games a lil' then rested in the air con room. i felt warm in the room. can't tahan le so i went to splash my face with water. haha.. both of them was content to juz sleep thru out the afternoon. i didn't sleep one bit. haha.. i've managed to convert the .amr file to .wav le.. tat's after searching the net for another workable converter.
evening time, they awoke. dinner was the qn. yong tau foo at thong soon area was the answer. we had prata too.. coz they were looking for some finger food. haha.. nvm, tomolo surely got a running session again. so shouldn't be a problem of digesting them away..
i asked again. thou i didn't get a definite answer, i'm still glad there's no rejection. maybe i'll ask again on wed or thurs? i myself also dunno can book out on friday or not. sianz. heard that our oc is going to make us stay back till sat again. hope it ain't true.
i deleted my last entry. coz i wasn't sure whether it was the right thing to do. maybe the time ain't right yet. so should i or shouldn't i?? what is the msg behind the chinese entry? hmmm.. i hope it'll accumulate to a big amount of coz.. haha.. wishful thinking again.. kk, gotta remind myself to let nature take its course. i'm pretty happy to hv refrained from smsing overduly today. so the peace this morning should be good.. hee;) was hoping for an sms but didn't get it. little bit disappointed la but then no choice oso. maybe it ain't mine afterall... =(

Urgh... My "cake" kena found out le. i "baked a nice cake"(to my standards). i recorded it in my handphone. i couldn't convert it from .amr to .mp3.. sianz.. i got put in a lot of effort one lei.. haiz.. nvm la.. when u love, u love unconditionly.. never expect returns.. still.. let nature take its course... haiz.. hmm.... i'll learn... maybe juz maybe i still stand a chance.. *fingers crossed hoping for the best*
went out. celebrated bdae for HL. kp, dn and jonas also got go. we gave her the watch n necklace. so sway. the design of the chain n dolphin is exactly the same as what her ex gave her.. dun think she like being reminded of her ex loh.. hmmm.. then the watch also regret not choosing a betta design.
at least the cheesecake, Gold Mine, i chose was nice... everyone liked it until they had left with too much n i made most of them stuff it down. the candles they gave 24 small candles instead of 2 big n 3 small. no candle holder oso. toopid NYDC waiter.
after singing from 2-6pm at party world at hello shop, we walked to plaza singapura. shopped around then went newton circus for dinner. had stingray! whoa! long time nv eat le.. nice.. yummy! had satay too.. hee.. u drooling as u read my blog rite?? keke.. then fried rice, otah, and the chicken wings and hao jian i din touch. haha..
we route marched to novena square. we sat on the floor beside the water body..(fountain maybe??) and chit chat. we talk abt many things. i allowed them into some details of my past r'ship with my ex. i was a pretty private person. i didn't let them noe much. they ask me was she a good person? i non-hesitantly said yes.
it was juz that our personalities a bit clash oni. plus there were parental problems.. haiz. wrong girl wrong timing. we struggled thru a few years. i tried perhaps too hard then.. now it's a case of deja vu for me.. i dun want history to repeat. god u must help me. i realli realli like this person. hmmmmmm....
took a cab home with kp, hl and jonas. dn left on mrt. poor thing.. pretty tired but had a pretty good msn session. now i noe more abt my position in the race n the direction. i think she's being realli tolerable with me le.. i'm glad she's such a great person to like. haha.. my judgement ain't wrong. keke..
ok.. gonna sleep le. tomolo 0815h need to be downstairs. meeting the guys for an officiated match. 0845h playing soccer at khatib.. hmm block 4** area one.. hmm.. still dunno how to go.. maybe go bump around in kp's van.. promised not to disturb the morning peace tomolo morning. so i won't do it. must refrain again. hmm.. i wonder whether they realli appreciate it at all.. it juz shows the heart n mind still there mah..
kk.. time to brush up n pack my stuff for tomolo.. good nite my readers.. as i promised, i'll maintain true to my blog.. ;) i juz wish nature take the course i want.. haha... wishful thinking to cheer myself up again.. *piangz*

Someone teach me to stop thinking please.. first it was trying to forget someone. now it's trying not to keep thinking of someone. haiz. i'm such a flop. maybe it's coz of my bad patience.. urgh.. i feel like rolling around on my bed and forget everything.
there is this special marathon. it's a marathon where everyone starts running at a different time. thus u can't judge whether u're leading.. also u dunno the distance to run. thus u dun realli noe how to pace urself.
though u dun see anyone in front of u, u'll still never know whether you r first. and so u keep running as fast as possible. when you're exhausted, the temptation to stop is there. but thinking of the prize, u urge urself to run again. if u keep running at top speed, u'll either die of exhaustion or finish the race as winner. but then u can also fall out of the race.
perhaps some moltivation from the sidelines on my position in the race might moltivate. maybe it would only disappoint. haiz. as i'm trying hard not to stop running, i keep getting hurt by the stitches i suffer from. should i juz bypass and ignore the stitches or should i lax down? but as i lax down, i suffer from fatigue too. the longer i take to reach the end point, the longer i hv to suffer.
God ah... help me.. sincerity doesn't always makes u get what u want, you know..?? i wish to dive into dreamland and wake up seeing everything is going smoothly.. i'm a fool. i'll always be a fool who seeks happiness coz i'm scared of regretting later in my life that i've become a smarty who ain't happy.. *keeps fingers crossed*

Thursday, after a long delay from the intended 3pm book out timing, we finally managed to book out around 6.30pm. it should hv been on normal days an early book out time. but due to the fact the commanders told us that we could book out around 3pm the night before, it caused an unneccessary disappointment in us. thus downing the morale.
the night was a pretty happy one. i spent the night oni talking mainly to one person. i sorta ignored the rest who msg me. not say ignore la. juz ans them n dun elaborate lor. then dun ask qn back. n then some oso tell them i busy doing something. hmmm.. right after the chat session i went to brush up n happily laid on my bed n tucked in. thinking.. hmm... sweet... *fingers crossed*
Friday morning. awoke at 0715h automatically. a tad worried abt whether i had overslept the timing to meet the guys for kayaking. frantically grabbed the hp to see the time. heng! i nv oversleep. 10am supposed to meet at pasir ris mrt one. msged a fren what to bring where to meet etc.. i had such sweet thoughts that i simply haven set the alarm then i fell into dreamland le. no lah nv dream. i seldom dream one.. hehe..
took a cab down to Jubilee. no one there. i was early. i decided to withdraw some cash. the atm in jubilee down. so walked over to posb one. then November Echo Papa called. i told him i withdrawing money now.. told him to wait for me at Jubilee then i walk over after withdrawing. then after i withdrew the money i walked over to Jubilee only to find no one there. got a call juz as i was about to bring out my hp to call him. he say he now at posb there. he say he wanna draw too. i walked over to meet him.
met up with Oscar Kilo Hotel. we had breakfast at S11. i ordered prata. i wanted a cheese prata n 2 kosong prata. but they dun sell kosong prata anymore. hmmm.. i think they believe kosong dun earn them enough dough. pardon the pun. so i ordered one cheese prata n one egg prata. November Echo Papa & Oscar Kilo Hotel ordered Dim Sum kindda food. like Siew Mai, Dumpling, Rice Dumpling etc.. they needed help in finishing coz they ordered too much. haha..
we took a cab down to Pasir Ris Sea Sports Club. met up with more guys. damn.. that guy came. they bluff me. haiz. bo pian. i treat him invisible. took a photo there. then found out the kayak rental shop there not open. maybe it's a malay business. then hari raya so close. called for a cab down to east coast coz they were pretty determined to kayak. they ain't interested in plan B of cycling, blading or Wild Wild Wet.
rented 8 single kayaks. i got a blue one with the number 17 on it. we had fun out in the sun, sand, sea.. Oscar Kilo Hotel was fun to be with. as well as Lima Sierra Juliet Foxtrot. we allied to capsize November Echo Papa. it was all in the name of fun though n no one was realli angry.. Oscar Kilo Hotel also capsized by himself trying to save his t-shirt. haha.. he lost it by the way. it's a rsaf white t-shirt. so maybe if u happen to see one the next time u go there, it might just be his.. haha.. being the Naughty-By-Nature guys, me, Oscar Kilo Hotel & Lima Sierra Juliet Foxtrot didn't wear the life vest all da way.. haha.. it acted as my pillow.. haha..
the downside. i felt pretty sea sick and after around an hour plus, i decided to head towards shore. at least i had managed to capture some shots of me standing on my kayak with my pals all round me in kayaks out in the open sea. hee.. can't wait to get those pix from my pals. i'll post some pix when i do get them..
after bathing we went to orchard. by bus this time. cineleisure. yuki yaki. to have lunch-dinner or should i call it lunchner? or lunner? kekeke.. wadeva.. it's like seoul gardens. buffet table BBQ style. so full i eat until. haha.. but thru out the day, some part of me wished i was home on msn. hmmm... went home from ps by cab again. hmmmph.. i must stop this bad habbit of spoiling myself with cab rides all da time.. 4 rides in a day.. is there a CNY resolution?? haha..
Friday night was again msn all da way. i realli enjoyed the company. i trust my judgement and wish to follow my judgement. no matter how hard i will try. ppl say it's veri difficult to believe. i too did doubt myself initially. but i think i noe what i'm doing this time round.. i believe perhaps time can prove my sincerity. oh ya, i practiced "baking the cake". i can't get it all correct. there's always some glitch somewhere. i tried baking it plenty of times. oh ya, i told a white lie too.. shhh....
it ended prematurely again. haiz. why so hurry tonite? hmmm.. nvm.. i have to be content with the many hours of joy i already got. din get to hear what i wanted to again. nvm there will be a next time. next i worry is my going to taiwan in late march. no contact for a month or so. will all i did be erased and forgotten? as in "Quan Gong Jing Qi" ?? i hope not. =(

Year of Birth: 1982
Eastern Sign: Dog
Western Sign: Scorpio
Your upbringing was quite possibly a stern one. In fact, you may have seen your parents as "the enemy" in your younger years, viewing them as the reason for all your problems. In later years, however, you would likely come to appreciate their wisdom and experience and possibly to apologize to them as a result. In short, you may be quite close to your family after your younger years, despite any problems you had in your youth.
Astrologically speaking, you were given several gifts, including four planets in your own emotionally determined, focused sign, reinforcing your Sun sign's traits and instilling you with the stubbornness and tenacity to become a strong and powerful guardian of the rights of those unable to defend themselves. In relationships, you'll probably find the comfort and stability you crave in the arms of Cancerians or Pisceans, but other Scorpios would make equally good choices. In friendships or business relationships, look to the earth signs, especially Taureans, for strong and enduring support.
You've been gifted with the capacity to provide your dear ones with an endless reservoir of strength and energy, both of which will prove indispensable in difficult times. Your challenge is to only offer your support when it's truly deserved.
Got the Horoscope Reading From here.

Garang Bean looking realli shagged after many hours of walking around with heavy load and busy comms. Intelligence Officer Signaller of 1st Battalion Singapore Guards 11th Mono. with the slack Rebro Llewell Seow.. haha!!
Bean blubbered at [13:54]
what a tiring week i juz endured..!! went for a Battalion Tactical Route March on Monday night. due to the rainy season, many parts of the bashing was realli unwanted for.. the water. the dampness. the mosquito bites. the sandfly bites. the prickling grass, leaves & vines. the smell. can't imagine a girl's reaction to these. especially if they ain't willing.. when u hear the "Gua, Gua" sound, it's not the frogs but the sound made by the suction on the boots of the person walking in front of u when they pull out their boots after stepping into mud. Yurk!
all the dampy, yurky, sweaty and hot feeling aside, they're still the load! a signal set weights about 10-15kg, the field pack of clothes, water etc weighs around 5 kg plus plus? the total would be around 20kg. it's still unimaginable what a mere 20kg load could do to you. until the distance n duration u hv to carry it is like 8-10 km and lasts from 8pm till the next morning 1am!! i suffered an ankle having abrasion, a headache from wearing the helmet for so long and also a left shoulder pain from the load i carry.
wed morning the pre ops forces went out. i stayed in camp. i'll rather go with the rebros.. they juz go there set up shop n sleep. machiam picnic loh.. incamp, me n bingcheng got to be in the planning room and mann comms. lotsa work to be done. gotta collect Mike Golf Romeo, plot on 2 different scale maps, make entries into the INT journal etc.. sianz
wed night i carried my heavier-than-monday-night's load outfield again. reached LCK and start walking around 2230h. this time the route is worse.. 80% of the route is bashing. i have to man the signal set somemore now. got to translate info from the scouts to s2 n vice versa while walking in the dark. wanna write oso very difficult. and the duration is much longer.. it lasted until 6am which was our H-hour. then still not much of a rest. coz they attack then n i hv to follow andoni around 8+9 we reached a place we call our tact hq to be set up. as the commanders gathered n discuss certain issues etc, i slept like there was no tomolo.. simply collapse with everything on n slept. pix to be included later..
then still not over loh. mission two is hasty defence. basically i hv to man comms thruout loh.. can't realli sleep well tho there're times where i juz heck care n went to sleep. mission three started at 2am. i hv to walk again. haiz. full of walking rite.. sianz.. walked around getting comms with the 2 sniper teams till around 7-8am then s2 very good.. told us to find a spot to concuss.. haha.. we did juz that! returned back to camp around 2pm. booked out around 5.30pm.
reached home surfed net. had my Prosperity Burger Meal dinner at Macdonald's.. wanted to try the twister fries mah.. else u usually wouldn't catch me patronizing the macdonald's near my house. took a short stroll around the neighbourhood. uncharacteristically and unknowingly thought of the good times together with her. the times we skipped night classes and just being together. hmmm.. i could remember the playground where she got plenty of mosquito bites while i got less more often than not. it juz goes to confirm that she is sweeter than me. haha.
a walk down memory lane.. sadness dawned on me as i reflected the changes in me. i hadn't wanted it to turn out this way. but ain't this what everyone says? must be on the first few pages of the book 101 Excuses. i have seen. i have exerienced. now i know.. i will continue to learn....

Finished with exercise transition & SA Battle on friday night. around 2300h reach camp.. did the usual admin washing up & settling of stores then went to bed around 0200h. slept till 7am n booked out soon after. no formal standby. i love it this way.. yeah!..
oh ya.. before u even start reading this entry, u should hv noticed the big difference on my blog. firstly the theme has changed to "Casual & Cool" instead of the outdated "Regimental 'n' Disciplined". next the earthly tone of brown replaced the green. Looks like my recent craze/infatuation with the color brown caught up with me. heh.. sorry guys for not investing more time on creating a new look/layout. i spent roughly about an hour or so oni.. heh..
went out with michelle on sat afternoon till sat night. wanted to catch a glimpse of carrie chong at ps. but i arrived about half an hour after their show ended. sianz. didn't manage to get her. to think i had brought along the digicam with michelle to ps upon receiving the sms from shuwei that carrie was there.. haiz. nvm, there's always a next time.
got her a t-shirt. black bg with pink design. it seems girls realli like this combination. striking lah.. was scouting for a gift to huiling which is pretty soon. hmm.. gonna pool together with kp, jm, dn & jonas to get her a gift or two. bought myself some new briefs and a boxer in the process instead. Renoma one. heh.. first time buy this brand. try out lah see comfy or not. no pics to show tho.. heh.. strictly personal. keke.. oh ya i saw many Or-Biang ang pow briefs on sale too.. i think it's realli disgusting. urgh! i hate red anyway.. but red packet is simply a disaster..
side track a bit. i'm realli glad to noe that singapore beat indonesia 1-3 in the away leg in indonesia tonight. disappointed about the late consolation for the indonesians though. so 2nd leg hold on the 2 goal advantage and the tiger's cup is ours again! yeah!

And so i've finally dug out all my photos from my camera phone to be updated to you guys.. hmm.. got science centre visit, got ah ma house visit, got lightstrike etc,.. sometimes a picture tells a thousand words lah.. so my blog very long sia.. got so many pictures.
haiz.. feeling down now as i start on this entry coz my loong loong holiday period is finally coming to an end. haiz. i was on leave since 22 December 2004 afternoon 1530h till now lor.. so booking in tonite 2130h 02 January 2005. haiz sianz.. already got post-ORD feeling..
Saturday at around 1030h i was at cityhall mrt le.. plan togo with a fren to try the chocolate fondue at Swiss Culture.. Suntec City. however due to its opening time being 1300h which was too late for us, we decided to go Secret Recipe to try the cheesecakes first. wanted to hv cheesecakes then go another place for chocolate fondue. hmm.. in the end we didn't go for chocolate fondue coz of some reason. we split on our ways n i went shopping at Raffles City again.. rather boring la coz i shopped with michelle that day le ma..
met up with michelle around 1430h after some "zhuang kuang". then took the east train to queenstown. met up with darren took 51. but realized took wrong direction le.. then alighted and took the correct direction. arrived at queensway shopping centre and "binary" with kp. i was looking out for a pair of brown leather shoes for comfy walking and some brown tops. oso thought of getting some brighter colored tops but nv see design i like.
end result was went mcdonald's eat, chit-chat, bought myself 2 brown tops(pictures already available..), a pair of addidas street soccer boots. kp got himself some shirts n t-shirts too.. darren got himself a new pair of jeans and a mp3 player pouch. though i did push michelle to find something she might like, she seem hesitant. hmm maybe she help me save money bahz.. haha..
then night we met up again to watch soccer. me, jm n kp then later kelvo met up at 108 coffeeshop to watch soccer n at the same time catch up a little. i found out something to my dismay. kelvo start smoking le. haiz.. he claim is stress.. well.. i'm not a person who wanna seem too kpo. i did tell him not to gently though.. but i noe it ain't gonna change things it seems.
after watching soccer, jm & kp stayed overnight at my place while kelvo went home. he is also my neighbour mah. oni one block away.. we play winning eleven & fm2005 till around 4am. then sleep. very tired..
first thing wake up by my handphone alarm playing "The Killers - Somebody Told Me" is think of whether our proposed match at NYJC with ZQ they all will be cancelled coz it was raining cats n dogs n puppies.. kittens too loh.. haha.. the msg "no cat one. carry on" made me sianz. but then around 1030h, the time we were supposed to meet up downstairs to make our way to the venue, he called me up n say referee cancelled the match coz the pitch is waterlogged. much to our relief! haha..
me n jm met up for brunch around 1200h with darren, jonas, kp at my neighbourhood market. then proceeded to play games thru out the afternoon. they left around 1630h. it's after they left that i feel empty n blue again.. haiz.. this will be a familiar feeling every sunday for the next 4 months at the very least. after atec hopefully life will be better in camp.. i gotta go cut my hair now.. going amk centre then buy back some groceries. then can prepare for book in le. sianz. dad bike lost then must book in by bus ownself le.. more loneliness.. i love company. hates loneliness to the core... Boo!!

Saturday night jm n kp stayed over at my place then we watched soccer n play game until rather late ma.. Sunday morning we had field soccer with referee indented at NYJC. but due to the rain (as seen in the pic..), we were spared the misery of swopping warm & dry for cold & wet.. heh.. i reckon all of us wake up first thing is "Is the match cancelled??" kekekekekke =P
