Ok, one interesting riddle for u who is reading this. Wat do u get if u put 3 big, fat guys seating nxt to each other, carrying popcorns, nachos (extra cheese), and soft drinks in a cinema? Answer: AWKWARD... I totally didnt enjoy watching the first 10min of the movie sandwiched between 2 guys rounder than me.. And its alrd hard being as round as me, if u know wat i mean.. So anyway, that guy with nachos and extra cheese is me... And the cinema was dark u know, and i kinda felt arnd for my drink in the dark, and i felt the left sleeve of a trouser leg... It was like ?!?!!!!!!! I was so paiseh la! Firstly, coz i go and touch a guy's thigh, and nxt, i touched arnd it for a while coz i was still looking for my drink.... I felt so dumb can... Luckily, after 10min of watching a movie like 3 sardines packed in a can (if there was ever such a case), the 2 guys at my left and on my right decided that it was getting too awkward and they distanced themselves, so we were all 1 seat apart... Lucky me...

Anyway, i was watching Hellboy 2... And it wasnt as bad as yingdan said it was leh... Some scenes were definitely enjoyable, and i had a few laughs here and there, especially when those 2 freaks of nature decided to sing "Can't smile without you"... But ya, the atmosphere wasnt there today la, maybe coz the cinema was small.. Coz usually when i watch movies alone, i tend to nt mind my being alone... But today it juz felt a little emptier, a little quieter than usual...

Went to Yamaha to buy gig strings to repair my dad's guitar... I hav a good mind to scold him alrd... He like totally nv take care of his guitar la, until a point that the strings that i fixed for him last time (which was ages ago) snapped coz it was too rusty.. Take note, it snapped nt bcoz he was playing it while it was rusty, but it was rusty until a point it was so brittle, and juz broke off.. So i dun see the point of repairing it, but oh well, at least its smth to do...

And its thursday! My gosh, time really flies when u take off days.. I only took them on monday and now is alrd thurs.. And i haven really went out to hav fun.. Nt that i want to, more of the fact that i need the fun, but cant find the cash for it... Might as well, the week is ending soon, and its going to be a busy quarter... I nd more help frm up there then ever b4...

YES! I got a new phone!! Ok, i know its juz a cheap random phone that has nth to boast compared to the high tech gadgets that batman is holding, but at least its like way better than the $10 phone i am holding now... (yes, the Ngage now has a trade in value of $10..) Hahaz, so happy now la! But still, i hav to wait for 7 more months b4 it can be officially used 24/7... In the mean time i still carry a $10 phone in camp...

And i hav no idea wat to do!! Somebody pls plan something fun this week? And include poor me in it... I am like having alot of free time with nothing to do... And it feels stupid... So stupid i actually had the urge to go to the library, and thats so unusual of me ok.. And it doesnt help with the fact that i am running low on cash in the middle of the month with like 2 weeks to go...

Doesnt matter la, i shall juz rot at home as long as no one calls me out, or maybe visit the library as a last resort... As long as i get closer to the 11 of Feb....

Be careful what you wish for... Isn't that a very true statement? A line from Chris Daughtry's song "Home" says it all.. 'Be careful what u wish for, coz u juz might get all'... I'm getting the dream life of almost evry NS man for 2 weeks, and i am hating evry minute of it... I know of pple out there who will enjoy my life now... I mean, whats better than working 1 day, then take the other day off? Plus all i do is drive arnd 20km for arnd 50min, and thats all for the day... For the rest of the time i am trying to keep myself entertained.. Basically, a slack life....

And i know many of u will be wondering, y dun u like a slack life? Tell u the truth, i rather be working and complaining back at my own company line, than be slacking ALL ALONE for the whole day... Darn, i feel like an idiot la... So for those who thinks slack life is gd, this is frm experience, i rather be doing wat i was supposed to do, be back at where i am supposed to be.. Althou it dun sound as nice (stay in, loads of guard duty, conduct course, etc..), but at least i dun hav to suffer the torment of silence alone... So ya, i'm bored.....

2 weeks till this ends, and from there the countdown to the last half a year...

Ok, this is to re-update on some stuff... I hav finally been attached out to some other place... Sadly (or rather happily..), its nt Tekong.. Which means I will nt be sitting on that ferry to the Forsaken Lands anytime soon... I hav been attached to Seletar!! Which means can go eat jalan kayu's famous prata when i book out! Hahaz, and i get to stay out! How gd can God get?

My job scope is basically very simple, work one day, off one day... Which equals to 24hrs of being a "dog" (coz i am juz basically getting ordered arnd evrywhere..), then i go home to take a break.. This cycle will carry on until the end of the month... Only down side abt this... After this coming sunday, i cant serve for 2 weeks.... Coz that work one day rest one day plan is counting in the sats and the suns... If u still dun get it, i wun be free nxt sat and the following sun.... So if u are reading this, can the relevant pple make the relevant arrangements? Like a stand in bassist? Somebody like Dawn might like the job? =P

Anyway, thank God for His arrangements, and wateva He's going to arrange nxt...

Marley and Me has a movie!! I must watch that movie no matter what... The book already so nice le, duno how will the movie be like.. Anyway, maybe coz i juz watched 10 promises to my dog, and its a super nice show also... Ok la, i feel dumb to hav to watch it alone and hear others cry so sadly at the back, but shld be used to it by now la... I mean, how often could u actually find someone to suit the timing of your SAF career.. Answer, someone with a similar SAF career.. =P

Life's super boring, and i juz got news that i am posted to tekong to drive... Like "Yay, i'm going back to tekong, how exciting can that be..." But lets face facts, life is full of ups and downs, and most of the time, pple only take notice abt the downs and nt the ups.. So since i already had my ups, maybe a little low time wun hurt... I may juz get to meet Johan when he goes in on Wed to hav his haircut, and i might juz bump into yuan hui, who i really haven met in like AGES.... Ya, i know i'm trying to think positively, but ultimately it still sux la, so wat to do? Suck thumb lor, be a good soldier and take it like a man...

I totally wish time would fly faster, maybe for the nxt 7 months... 7 more months b4 the big day!
