hey guys and girls
the new officers and specialists are coming into town~ this smells ORD is coming soon haha.
5 more months and counting.
I have to admit i m bloody nervous about the next life ahead. Going to uni looks really stressful from all the complaints people are making. I ve been having nightmares lately on how badly i'm doing in uni. Argh.
I ve this weird ass dream the other day... i'm dead and i ve a lot of childhood memories flooding my brain. Images that i never thought i can remember again. It's creepy isn't it? The mind seems to be able to hide a lot of things in its subconscious that we thought we have forgotten but actually the memories are all locked in some secret stash.
If only we can tap on this memory lane, we can remember a lot of shit i bet.
But i m a blur fuck, so no matter what i do, i m still a blur fuck.
Just wish my ORD date is in Nov rather than Feb. Life's such a bitch. I've learnt to adapt to the crap and stop complaining already. That's the whole point isn't it? To train good, non-whiny citizens who can look at a bigger picture. We must have grown up in some way or another.
From "Generation Kill", a HBO 7-episodes series on USMC 1st recon battalion invading Iraq. Fucking great show. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lance Corporal Harold James Trombley: I don't know why you guys are down on this shit. I'm a Christian.
Sergeant Brad 'Iceman' Colbert: Theologically speaking, Trombley, the world's been going downhill ever since man first offered entrails to the gods.
Lance Corporal Harold James Trombley: What's that mean? Entrails?
Corporal Josh Ray Person: That religion is gay.
Sergeant Brad 'Iceman' Colbert: The point, Lance Corporal: we're supposed to be a recon unit of pure warrior spirit. We're out here, 40 klicks in enemy lines, and this man of God here, he's a fuckin' POG (personnel other than grunts). In fact, he's an officer POG. That's one more layer of bureaucracy and unnecessary logistics, one more asshole we need to supply MREs (their combat ration) and baby wipes for. And worst of all, worst of all, the motherfucker doesn't even carry a weapon. When push comes to shove even Rolling Stone picks up a gun but this fuckin' shill of God, he can't cover a sector, he'll never hump ammo or Claymores. This is a fuckin' war and we're here as warriors, so on top of everything else that's expected of us do we really need to drag him along and indulge in this make-believe bullshit?
Corporal Josh Ray Person: Oh, no. Now not only do we have to worry about all the Charms you've eaten, but now Brad's just pissed off God.
Sgt Brad is cool shit. Well according to Wikipedia he has already donned the rank of a Gunnery Sgt. The other cool dude in the show, Lieutenant Nate Fick has quit the service after being promoted to a captain and is now a CEO of some company.
Lovely.

Ahhh met up with Anthony after such a long time. He seems to be having a great uni life. I liked his comment on Singaporean guys being more macho. Thank you! It made me feel that i have not wasted 2 years in army even though i barely work out haha. Yea i know i m fucking slack.
He's in Tokyo U and i m so proud of him. Apparently it's a very elitist kind of school and it's for Japanese elites to hang out. Damn cool. And he's studying architecture... damn we are going to be great friends soon in the future.
The more i read about Archi, the more i find the subject interesting. Architecture is not about stacking up materials to create a building because that will be construction. It's about the culture, design elements and the functional solution of a building to its environment and people. Cool stuff.
I need to comment on this cool guy call Toyo Ito who designed Vivocity. I guess it's really a cool place to hang out thanks to his rooftop open space cum fountain concept. People have space to do what they want, sit on grass, step in water, look @ sentosa from the opposite view and yet everything feels like it's on e ground floor. It made Vivo popular even though it's not in Orchard road. On e other hand, poor architectural solution like Orchard Central is destroying its commercial business with its "trapped" design, which was designed to contain customers in the building. However i guess the plan backfired because the floor plan confused the patrons and they just can't wait to get out of there instead of wanting to get "trapped" inside. Sad.

i have a lot of people giving me feedback that my blog is too "emo".
First of all, i want to clarify that i only posted those retarded emo moments, leaving out the happier moments in life because i m too lazy to blog. Most of the time, i only blog when i m not in a great mood.
2nd, it's my own blog... whatever.
3rd, nobody reads blogs anymore anyway, why bother what i post?
Anyway, grown ups such a hilarious show. Really love the acting put together by the actors/ actresses. It's great entertainment for 2 hours and it's really quite heartwarming towards the end.
Don't you love it when u feel touched and happy at the same time?

club till 4 am and book in @ 5 am via the ferry. 8am the PRs start streaming in to visit the island. Now i m done with work, i m going to head down for guitar lessons.

Misery happens when you decide to focus on a tree from the rest of the forest. The tree dies on you. Or maybe it has no hope of growing into something you will like it to be. Whatever the case, when we look wide enough, we are happier people.
Are we not?
Today we surveyed the marina float for the recruits' parade. In my own opinion, it's going to be one big mess. Let's see how everything goes.
To be honest, i don't really have mood for anything at all these days. Don't bother asking me why.

Heh one field camp down one more to go. Fucking tiring. The company officers are new and everything seemed very cocked up because they refused to heed the advice of the lau jiao sergeants who have been there since the dawn of time. That's the case of humans isn't it? Someone who is supposedly more superior always refusing to talk to someone below his level.
So now everyone has to endure their shit.
"Sir, through my experience, the group battle course should only be 500 to 800 m with 2 contact points and 1 danger area to clear."
And the end result is our patrolling became one whole big round around the harbouring terrain (probably more than 1+ km). When we called for artillery drill, the recruits ran 100 m only but the OC (the biggest officer fuck in the company, a.k.a officer commanding) fucked the SME specialists (us) because he thought they ran 200-300m. If you are afraid of them getting a heat exhaustion all the time then don't bother training! Plus the fact artillery shells have an area of effect of more than 200m! So OC, fuck you.
It sucked to work with a lousy and stupid client like him. He said that we treated ourselves like service providers, that we attached to his company just to train their recruits and not work together with his company commanders to form a team. Hey, we never had any problem in the past, now what are his fucking problems?
O coy field camp down. M coy next. And then next sunday need to take O company for their situational test. Sunday gone and my sister can say goodbye to me on saturday night.
I don't mind sacrificing for the country, but i need people to appreciate the effort. I'm sick of regular assholes who take NSFs for granted. IT'S NOT OUR JOB. IT'S OUR DUTY. SO DON'T EXPECT US TO BE LIKE YOU. YOU WORK HARD FOR YOUR PROMOTION. WE WORK HARD FOR EFFECTIVELY NOTHING. THERE'S NO PROMOTION OR EXTRA MONEY IF WE DO THINGS WELL. YOU SHOULD BE HAPPY WE GIVE IN OUR 100%.
They love to blame it on us when the recruits cannot reach certain levels of combat capabilities. You know what, if you are really so fucking good you won't be patrolling the ground looking at how we conduct lessons but rather try enthusiastically teach the recruits all over the area. Bet it's too tiring for you huh? Then stfu.
Most of the people have too many comments but put in too little effort to help with the training. These are the people who don't deserve a promotion. I hope u get stuck with your pathetic rank, asshole.

Take my hand, take my whole life too.For I can't help, falling in love with you.
Very sweet song. The sweeter it goes, the more bitter it feels.
Anyway, YOG opening was a huge success in my opinion. I think the art direction and everything are so well planned and rehearsed. I'm so glad they are getting real, good dancers to do the job rather than all the little primary school kids. It's a good show, with spectacular fireworks and brilliant HD screens. I felt really patriotic after the show. :)
Other than that, i have nothing much going on. Time to book in. 2 weeks of field camp coming up.
