We're in July now. Bridging classes had started for me. As expected from my last blog, i really did not have time for much blogging. I've been out almost every weekend whereby i book in back to camp straight.

Bridging Maths is harder than i thought. Lucky for Ah QQ there to teach me and not to forget there's a few smart A Lv student campmate to teach me when i stay in. What i can do on my part is to study hard and keep the motivation coming. lol.

June was Jessamine, Jun Xiong and mine birthday. We had the celebration but i didn't have the time to blog it here. BTW happy birthday to us! hahas.

From now till August 13, i expect another month of packed schedule since i'm on a 7 weeks, 11 lesson bridging class course. In short, I'm having my examination in 1 month time! lol. Too little time, too much things to cover.

In camp, i've also started to let my understudy take over my appointment slowly. I can't teach everything to him but at least i told him the basic to survive. Anything additional is up to him to learn. There's always a saying, "Ask, and you shall be given". I'll still be in service till i start clearing my offs in August. Till then, Please fill free to clarify any doubts in work. If not, I'll say Bye bye lo!

Going back to school makes me feel like i'm a Civillian again. My ORD mood have already kicked in. Thinking back, It wasn't too long ago that i enlisted.

From sept 2007 to dec 2007, i had my BMT.
From Jan 2008 to june 2008, i had my hands tied with Mas Selamat's search.
From July 2008 to Oct 2008, i was preparing and eventually went for Overseas Exercise (EX Claymore in Thailand)
From Nov 2008 to Dec 2008, I had my Unit's Stocktaking and Lab audits.

Thereafter, i've been passing my time quite peacefully until now. No major event came up and i could focus on university open house, driving lessons and other things that i wanted to do before i ORD.

LIke i said above, I have a very hectic studying schedule ahead so i will only blog when i have time. Best wishes to Darren and his partner. You have my Blessings! And also, to Chang da and many other friends whom are starting school soon! All the best in ya studies!

Till i blog again, Adios Amigoes.

The Last time i blogged, i haven't even pass my final theory test for driving.

Fast forward 3 months and i'm already in my 14th driving lesson. I've also applied for UOL's Bachelor of Economics and Management @ SIM. Today, i just went down to school to pay up the first sememster school fees. It cost like $5564.00 and lucky my family could support me in this one.

If not, a study loan is what left for me. Okay. I saw this poster for a 5km run @ woodlands. It's called the brooks Republic Run. Regristation avaliable now and i'm thinking of participating in it. Maybe i'll sign up over the weekend @ any sportslink outlet.

Looking at the calendar, it's May now and in 1 month time, i'll be starting my bridging classes and in 3 month times, I'll be clearing my off and leaves. Finally, in Sept, I'll officially ORD from the army! Feel happy for me people! hahas.

But before that, I'll see Yong Hui, Meng siang, Jun Xiong and Chang da ORD-ing in May and June respectively. QQ ORD in August too and ORD-ing in september will be me, Terence and Kang an, and Kelvin! hahas.

I know i haven't been blogging for very long but what's coming ahead does not free up more time for me either. I'll just try to blog every now and then when i'm free.

Till i blog again, Adios Amigoes.

Didn't know that the last time i blogged was a month back! hahas. This means i'm busy!

Actually, i have been busy in planning for my studies after NS, my driving test and as usual, NS work.

For 2 fridays, i was forced to work OT while others got to book out @ 5.30pm. And on both days, i only booked out after 10pm! But still, i got my incentives for working extra. hahas. OFF days man!

There's also the CNY period which i went out intensively to all my aunt's place and friend's house as well. Had really lots of fun and i didn't expect time to pass so fast!

Before Jan 09, i did expect time to get pass quickly bcuz last year, i didn't really felt like working until march where 3 months went by and time starts to catch up with me. hahas. (yea i think i was partly lazy too)

This year, time caught up with me earlier, mid feburary and i have alot of things to do. But the good thing now is that i have my understudy for Armoury. I'll do my best in teaching him all i have and one day, i'll hand-over all my duties to him and I'm ready to ORD lo.

I will not write up my reflection on NS now but maybe i'll write one come nearer to my ORD date. hehe

NS issue aside, economy was really declining too. Had a few window shopping trips and found out that most stores are having discounts or crazy sales. I guess i was lucky to be still in the army for now. A few weeks back, my mum told me about retrenchment and she gave me some scare when she said my dad's job may not be as secure as before.

Now, hopefully we can all keep our jobs and brace through this tough economic period. Oh btw, please SPEND the GST credits that we'll be receiving, cuz by keeping them, we're actually not circulating the money around which the government had planned for us to do. hahas

I'll probably buy a shoe, spend the money on a short trip overseas. (yea, can start looking at where to go lo)

Studies issue, Nothing much to highlight for now. Application for NUS, NTU, SMU had been sent out and will wait for the news to come (around april i guess) and SIM, MDIS or KAPLAN, those University will have to wait for now.

I dun know when i will be blogging again so i wish everybody to stay happy and healthy as a resolution for CNY.

2 Jan @ Double O

Belated New year party!!

You bet We enjoyed! hahas

It's a new year and best of all, 12 days into it! lol.

Took a very long break from army in the month of december and now, i'm back to work.

Had celebrated New Year with candise and gang with her boyfriend proposing to her when we're about to cut cake! Best wishes to you candise! hehe.

Then, 2 Jan was clubbing with my camp-mates. Owe them one night outing since coming back from thailand. Memories of Thailand is still fresh in me but it's already a 4 month old event!! hahas. I went in August 08 till Septemver 08 if ya forgot. heex.

Had fun but last weekend, i failed my driving final theory test! hahas. Didn't really prepare myself well so who knows, hopefully can get over with it in the next test. As for University stuffs, I found a course from MDIS which i'm very interested in.

The Bachelor of Arts- Mass Communication is alwaes an interest of mine but currently SIM does not offers much in that area. The only External university offered the course at a heart-breaking price of 60k! Thats way too much given any other bachelor course fee is in the range of 19K to 25K. The differnence in amount could easily buy a decent car lah! hahas.

Whereas MDIS is offering a Mass communication At a fee of 21K and best of all, they have a sememster in August or October 2009. Nonetheless, i have yet to discuss the details with my parents about the financing as well as the creditials of the university which plays a part too.

However, my stand is, If i were to take a Overseas bachelor in SIM, wad difference is there if i choose MDIS. Thus, Forming up a clearer picture of what i want to study. The application period for most university starts in Feb 09 and last for 1 month.

Till i blog again. Happy New Year to all and an advance wishing of Chinese New Year! hahas.

Gonna blog 2 weeks worth of event since i didn't blogged last week. hahas. Firstly, last saturday, 13 dec, went out with sammy and darren plus the usual gang (minus QQ) lol.

We watched the movie "The day the earth stood still" and had steamboat dinner after that. It's been very long since i last saw darren and sammy. Have a good catching up with them and check how darren is doing as policeman as his career.

Got to know that everybody was getting their 13th month bonus but me (NSF) dun have! I felt so pathetic lah. Zzzz. The only bonus for NSF was $20 increment in pay for the Serviceman's insurance. HAIZ!!!! So muchh different can!!! hahas

After dinner, we thought of going to play pool @ park lane shopping center but gave it a go cuz everybody wanna go home. hahas.

Then i booked in and went back to work on Tues and wednesday before getting my leave again on Thursday. Come Thursday, went to johor with my girl, her sister and her best friend. Total 3 girls + me!

There's some changes to the malaysian custom and they've now opened the new custom they built. Credits to the malaysian that it's big but it's not really a clever idea to make the tourist walk up and down the hallway. Singapore custom is wide but we do not walk around the whole custom just to get our immigration clearence! This part is disappointing but i guess the malaysian have no choice bah and due to the big hall, the place now seems like some arrival/departure hall of some world class airport. lol.

Enough of the custom hahas. Went to johor for a shopping trip but instead it was the girls whom spent like $350 in total on their clothes. While i spent on food, movie, Comics, Anime and a shirt. hahas. Watched Yes Man and i think it was a funny movie. Had seafood for dinner in the late evening.

Come friday, i went for my medical appt @ CGH and after some physiotherapy, i find that my back problem has finally some improvement to it. The doctor say my injury should have healed but the muscles surrounding it had not recovered. Thus some workout here and there is needed.

So i'll be exercising soon i hope.. hehex. Lastly, i went bowling with the westside gang plus Min zhen and QQ. It has been awhile since we lasted played and we had fun. hahas. Dinner was at my grandma's house cuz today is celebrating of Dong Zhi (start of winter??) hahas. i dunno but the purpose is to eat tang yuan and get reunion.

So, it was a whole week of outing and shopping. Fun time dun last and my leave/ break is coming to an end. I'll have to report back to camp after christmas and damn, i have standby duties over the new year and my off can't be used. =(

Wadever it is, Lets countdown to the start of 2009! whoohooo. New Year resolution anyone?! hahas

It's a long weekend this week and i've added 2 more days of leave on top of that! hahas. Just so that i can get my long long break at last!

This week was dull. Even though i'm only in camp for 3 days, There's CO standby bed and thus life in camp was cagey. Every now and then, got csm standby, OC standby just to act that they're UP!
So, i clean the bloody fan for dunno how many times until i bet i'll shine lah. hahas

Then, Friday came and i got pissed while playing Football Manager 09 on my lappy. The reason, my laptop is very slow (512 MB ram nia!). So i thought of adding my Ram to 1 gb and so without thinking much, i asked my mum and we head down to thompson where my mum alwaes patronizes to upgrade my lappy! whoohoo.

Now my lappy looks like a new one! Opening application also wun take so long liao. Playing FM 09 is also a heaven! love that game so much. hahas.

Saturday was my mum's birthday, so my aunts and uncles arrange for steamboat dinner @ AMK. Had a very unique pot (porridge pot) as soup base! hahas. I had beef slices the whole night and after that, went on to buy a running shoe from sportslink.

The Original price was like $79.90 and i saw the promotion was $29.90 so i think it's quite a bragain although it's some china brand. lol.

Then, came home to watch Liverpool match against Blackburn. It was disappointing in the first half but second half was alot better. hahas. I shout and scream when the goals start coming. lol. It's their first goal in 3 games now. last 2 match were drawn 0-0. So it was something to celebrate! lol.

Then, i hope to meet up the rest of the gang too. It's really been awhile since we last had a gathering. Partly becuz there's very little nice movies on show now and ermmm, maybe december is the time where ppl get busy. lol. But not for me, i'm still getting alot of free time so lets plan something k?

2009 is coming soon. Gotta write out my New year wishes le. hehex. It will be a year where many things will happen, I'll ORD from the army, get back to classes and possibably, get a job if i'm studying part time. So many important decisions to make that will affect my future. Let's go to the temple and pray for good luck in the up-coming year guys! hahas.

I know i'm abit kan-jiong but it's still no harm trying mah. hahas. Just like i had gone praying with chang da before my enlistment. hahas.

Picture from Joan's birthday.

Picture from yonghui, QQ and chang da's birthday!

Have a good weekend!

Football Manager just launched a version on PSP! whoohoo. . My all time favourite game is still up and running!

The PC version is even better with their new 3D gameplay engine. IT's alot of improvement as compared to the previous 2D gameplay!

And the best of all, the PSP version takes up only 70MB on the memory card! hahas.

Christmas is really coming early lo. What a game to be released during this festive period.

My advice, try it! it's definately gonna get you hocked onto it.
