i went to remove my wisdom tooth on monday. i have to remove 4 of my wisdom teeth cos 2 of them are growing almost parallel to my gum and the dentist say since i am removing 2 it's good the remove the rest too -.- felt quite nervous before the appointment cos i hated the idea of having needles poking into my gum. but surprisingly the process didnt hurt much and i didnt feel much pain throughout the whole thing. the dentist removed a 3-rooted wisdom tooth. i didnt know a tooth can have 3 roots..maybe i am mutated or something haha. anyway, the dentist didnt expect my tooth to have 3 roots so she actually broke one of the roots during the extraction -.- in the end she had to spend some time removing the root from my gum. pity i didnt have the complete tooth.
will be removing my bottom right tooth nxt week. apparently it's growing at an angle so some minor surgery will be required :s hope i dont feel much pain...

i feel like baking some stuff..like brownies cookies cheese cakes etc etc. would be great if i can make my own desserts. imagine a damn chocolatey brownie..a super cheesey oreo cheese cake. went to the library with the intention of getting some books and learn how to bake. after looking at the books i have decided not to attempt cos i dont have the necessary tools necessary ingredients etc. maybe i will try baking if some one is willing to try with me. meanwhile i shall imagine and hope =)

good luck to those taking exams...if anyone manages to read this entry. i have a feeling no one reads my blog anymore haha.

"Nowadays it's not the bigger fish that gets to eat the other fishes. It is the faster fish that gets to eat the fishes..."

random thoughts

today's my first day of civilian life. it is really DAMN SIAN. yup i stayed at home the whole day doing nothing..kind of rotting at home. i got to do something productive soon or my brain cells will start dying day by day.

every one seems to be happy with ORD...but i feel quite lost instead. i got my certificate of service last friday with my testimonial and kelvin heng was telling me he felt quite sad cos he dont know if he will be seeing all his men again. i kind of felt the same way too even though i have done lots of shit and the people there had given me lots of angst during the 1 yr. i know i certainly wont be seeing hanrong again during reservice..and i wonder if hsien yeow and the rest of my men will be back. i got my ic on friday..but it was like any other days. there werent alot of people in camp and many just left the camp after they got their ic. i wonder if i was the only one feeling sad to leave the camp...after all i have spent the majority of my NS life there. the friends there...the things done there...think i will never forget all these things. said bye to my PS but not my PC. think i will never be able to treat him as a friend..only a superior and subordinate relationship. but thanks to him i realised the importance of controlling my emotions. some memories can never be erased no matter how hard you try.
got my pink ic and an envelope containing my testimonial, my certificate of service and my service transcript. my testimonial had grammatical errors everywhere and my name all of a sudden became "xiang han" in the middle of the testimonial. kind of reflects the amount of appreciation the army has. it's all a wayang show i guess.
regret that i didnt get to take a picture of my bunk. i managed to do that for my bunk in tekong, SISPEC and ATI. and i didnt get to take a picture of my tank - 54264. i think i spend more time touching and servicing it than on myself lol.

ORD function at Maritius Mandarin was quite enjoyable. took quite alot of pictures with my friends. basically spent 60 bucks just to take pictures inside the function hall of a hotel. the food was ok and the performance was alright too. was talking to hsien yeow about the lack of girls at the function and we started talking about VJC prom nite. surprisingly till now i still dont regret the decision of not going for the prom night. i know i will certainly not enjoy the function..dont have many friends there so what's the point of spending so much just to feel out of place over there.

i cant start working yet cos i am going overseas in early december. i am basically rotting at home now and desperate attempts to meet up with friends have been unsuccessful so far. hopefully i can meet up with friends whom i have not seen for a very long time. kind of regretted neglecting them during the past 2 years. hope i still have the chance to make up....

i want to learn baking. shall try it out one of these days when i am in the mood.

the end of NS, the end of a chapter in my life. it's the start of a new chapter and i am definitely not going to ruin it again.

out of the blue

alright i have decided to blog again..but i wonder how long will i last and who will still read my blog. i dont have much to blog about cos my life has become a routine - i spend my time either in camp or at home resting. i used to work for the full 5 days but have been taking offs nowadays...trying to have a 4-day work week or less. army life has become quite boring for me...i either do servicing on my tank or i play soccer. but i think i will miss this kind of life after i ORD. every one seems to be looking forward to ORD, including me, but i think i will feel quite lost when the time comes cos i wont be used to the freedom. it's like suddenly an important part of my life is gone. i will miss those friends i have made during these 2 years. hope we can still keep in touch aft ORD.

cant think of much to do after i ORD...i will want to go overseas to relax..havent gone overseas with my parents for a long while. maybe after that i will work for half a year and study a bit too..get myself prepared for uni life. cant go on wasting precious time anymore.

i think i shall make an effort to keep in touch with my close friends. havent talked to some for a damn long time and i dont know what has happened to them... shall try to stop being anti-social.

hope i will keep on blogging...
