Class dinner

Went for the class dinner to send off the Feb guys. Had it at Bugis. After that a few of the guys went over to Clarke Quay to drink, but epic fail.
Lessons learnt:

• Sultan Fish is exclusive
• Choosing food with the guys is damn troublesome, more nonsense than practical comments
• Eating fish eye is still disgusting
• We must pick our teeth before eating
• Beer is disgusting
• Boat Quay is cool
• Shisha is quite cool

Work

Finally found a job. It is tough to get a job when you have only 2 weeks left on Earth.
I don't really like to work. I can't sleep in. I have a fixed routine in my life ( wake up, eat, work, sleep, repeat). I can't go and tan my body. When I still had ample time, it was raining daily from morning till night. Now when I need to work, the sun is effing bright. But but, I shall not complain too much because I need the money for a lot of things. Oh and I hate my baggy G2000 work pants. And I also don't like combing my hair. I am ending my work soon. After that, I shall go in army as a happy man, can hardly wait. (Y)

Chalet

It has been quite long since I've blogged because I am tired from work and also because of laziness. Due to popular demands, here goes an update.
Went for 13/09 chalet some time back.
Day 1: Late for 3 hours. Went for dinner at Just Acia. Went back stoned and tried very hard to sleep, epic fail. Finally slept around 5+.
Day 2: Went to Wild Wild Wet with the guys. All of us almost drowned at the tsunami pool, each at different point in time. This is because someone suggested going to the end of the pool without floats. Went back for BBQ. Played the "I have never" game and drank a little. Walked about Pasir Ris park, went back to share ghost stories and finally went to sleep.
Day 3: Packed up. Went to shop around with the rest for office wear. I left earlier to cut my stylish hair, but needed to wait 30 min. Kind of glad I did not cut, I like my hair now because it is damn nice.
Finally went home to rest and prepare for work the next day...which leads us to the next post.

American Pie

I have to say this, American Pie movies are the best movies ever made. Plus they have super nice soundtracks. So bored at home, glad to have these shows entertaining me.

Job

Managed to get a job. Although I don't really feel like working, I need the cash to settle some stuffs ( think ah-long ). It will be quite long before I receive my first NS pay.
So went for training today after sleeping for barely 4 hours, surprisingly the trainer was darn funny. So I kept laughing throughout and did not sleep like usual.
Next week I will be thrown into a new environment, shall rest more this week.

Danzation

Went to catch Danzation. I was thinking to myself, it better be good because I paid a heavy price for it. Oh yeah, it turned out to be quite entertaining, did not disappoint me at all. I would say it is the best performance I have ever watched. Or maybe it is because the past performances that I have watched were just plain bad. If you are wondering, Danzation is a dance performance organised by Ngee Ann poly with performances by many external dance crews, mainly hip hop dance. It takes place every two years so I am quite lucky to have caught it.

Side-tracking, my tumblr is not totally dead. I thought that it would be a better idea to just have a place specifically for pictures and one for my thoughts and feelings. Not many strangers would appreciate reading about what I write on tumblr. So do check it out.

A new start

I'm glad everything has settled down. Sorry for letting you down once again. I will try my best to make it not happen again as I really do not want to lose your trust.
I am still looking forward to NS though. I hope to have fulfiling life inside and I will come out a stronger man with greater capabilities. I probably also need to find something else to occupy my mind.
Let us meet again if fate permits.

Ns

At first, I was dreading Ns, but now I think I will be better off being inside Ns. At least it is a world which I can predict to a certain extent. And I won't have any stress due to stuffs.

Fate

I am being very honest here.
I think that fate is a bitch and I am her latest favourite target to play with.

Lessons from this holiday Pt 1

This holiday, I have learnt many valuable lessons. So here goes,

1. Number one on the hit list, "Enlistment" is a taboo word for employers. Okay maybe only in my case, because I only have freaking a month left on Earth.
2. Always set aside enough money for your holiday, especially if there is a special event like prom, effing expensive.
3. There will always be jobs for you even if you can only work for a day. I know I can go apply, but I have several requirements for a job that suits me.
4.  Long holiday is boring without the two things that men often worry about.
5. Ns is a major disruption to your life.
6. It is super tough to grow long hair which looks nice.**

Reflection

Another lonely chilly night in my room, perfect mood to reflect.
Okay I have slightly exaggerated it, but I am in a mood to reflect.
For some unknown reason, this post by my friend kept surfacing in my mind. She roughly said that humans are too greedy. When we get the things we want, we start to expect more of them. I guess I am guilty of this too. I can claim to want only this, but deep inside my heart I want more. So a new resolution to be less greedy?
On a separate issue that just randomly popped into my mind, I am sorry to let anyone down, knowingly or unknowingly. From many notes in the past, I realized that some people envy me and wish to be like me. The truth is I am not perfect. I am only a human with my own dislikes, my own fears and insecurities.

Resolution

I have finally come up with a set of new year resolution.
The resolutions are, not in order of priority (* indicates higher importance)

• Get into an army vocation that pays me near a thousand dollars* ( I could really use the cash )
• Be a stronger person***
• Learn how to play the guitar**
• Try to keep in contact with friends*
• Keep a nice hair that is suitable for army yet looks cool***
• Study hard (should I flunk my examinations)*
• Get tanned***
• Get my six-pack***
• Look hotter and more mature (oh and of course be more mature)***
• Not losing sight of my dream****
• Make good friends in the army*

That is roughly about it. By December, I will come back to review this resolution.

Eve of new year

On the eve of new year, I went out to my friend's house for a steamboat dinner with part of my class. Played guitar hero and also with her dog. I think I can be a dog trainer as a part-time job, my hidden talent. In the meantime I also fretted over where to go later on. Quite funny.
After putting on the contacts which were killing my eyes at that time, I went off early.
I am glad that we spent the last day of the year together. Quite enjoyable just sitting there and talk. And the Indian dude was super funny. Will not be our last time doing this.
I have yet to thought of my new year resolution, but I have a rough idea of them. You should also write one too, would be quite fun to see.

Ami's Birthday

On Wednesday, went out to celebrate Ami's 19th birthday. Was supposed to go barrage, but hunk had different plans so we went ahead with it. The nice thing about going out with them is that they know I will definitely be late and so they will also be late. So hunk waited an hour for me, and we both waited two hours for our Maknae. Went to watch Fockers, had quite a bit of fun disturbing our Maknae there. Then went for dinner at Marina Square, where we took very long to decide on a place to eat due to Maknae's special request. Gave him a tool to battle his demon, hope it will be used wisely. Then we cam-whore with Maknae's lousy camera, disappointing. End of story.
