Almost set to go I guess. 2 weeks away with the corps, should be fun minus the fact that its always done with minimum sleep, maximum physical strain, sleeping rough, and the must-have(and well deserved) alcohol overdose at the end, after training our arses off like like shit. Well, at least I get paid AND I get fit-ter. Hahaha...
P.S- Any of you guys wondering whats all this crap about? lol Its my university's officer training corp.

Jijiman out,
See yous in 2 weeks.

Rileks...

Exams over! Heavy night on friday. muahahaha....
Chilling to the max man. Lol only thing now is to spend the rest of my summer without making myself broke. What to do in july...
See me having a mojito every night since friday. Mojitos all the way!!!
My one week of freedom anyway before getting my ass deployed to 'camp hell' for 2 weeks starting next friday - summer camp. Strahan and Francis over almost every night, drinks, PS3, loadsa food, etc... all the way man.
Just seen my kit list for summer camp.. super extensive man. Had Tony Roma's all you can eat ribs buffet today. Awesome! Nuff said. Worth it lah.

Sakai...

P.S. -Gimme a SA-80 rifle and I'll gladly shoot my neighbours across the street now for making so much noise at 3.30am..
Last paper tmr... aiyo. Ini macam punya olang pun ada.

Rome 2. (continued)

Posing in our santa hats on boxing day before we fly off. Dared each other to fly to Rome from Belfast with our santa hats on. And of course, we did it...




tried to cut our costs by attempting to dump Lin Foong into the fountain... much to her objection.




These are NOT mine btw... Lin Foong's punya..perempuan punya.




For getting the group lost... credit to my map reading skills really.




Outside the Pantheon.




Worst case senario for constipation...




Inside the Vatican, the place is actualy huge! You would expect for the tiniest country in the world the other way round.




Alter straight ahead!




St. Peter's Square, while queing up to get into the vatican.




Was trying to do a 'Barack Obama' back in our hostel..failed apparently..




The Pantheon!! Definitely the coolest building on the trip no doubt!




Inside the Vatican Courtyard.




Couldn't help but noticed this humongous shiny 'guli' in the Vatican, so I had to take a picture! :P




Not much of a cam whore type, which explains a lot of retarded poses...(inside the Vatican Museum)




Vatican city from Rome.




This castle somehow reminded me of chocolate cake...mmm..
Pssst...apparently its the 'illuminati's s secret lair in the movie 'Angels and Demons' hahaha... interesting..




Pizza!! Pasta !! all the way...this bit of the trip I missed the ,most, REALLY.




Socializing session plus a few drinks with some other people from the hostel that I randomly met. (L-R, Korean American, 2 South African sisters, Italian dude, Italian chicks, Italian dude no.2 and sesated Malaysian of course.) The rest were too tired/scared to come..haha. Nothing wrong with making more friends right? ;)




Supposed to be something behind me..




Beautiful...




Italian ice cream shop...seriously awesome ice cream, best (and most ex) I've ever tasted so far. Makes ben and jerrys look like paddle pop rainbows...which of course is still nice! :D




Patrick, my 'gay buddy' for the trip as we both bought (and wore) red jumpers for the trip..




See what I mean?!

Roasting..

Its 8pm here and its still roasting in my room.. uncle Ding was right after all, when he told me that my rooms gna be the coldest room in the house during winter and the warmest during summer. Seriously feels like Malaysia, could use a fan or aircond now..

Did the mass transfer paper yesterday as well. Went okay, should be able to pass.
Didn't get any sleep last night at all and only slept at 8 this morning. Forced to get up to go play pool with the boys as promised, not one of my best days really.

Dreadful feeling earlier on, when I kinda stopped and pondered about my future, its uncertainty, whether I will be able to see my parents again etc..all this useless unproductive stuff really.
Now, feeling a lil numb. Heat's not helping either..

Rome 1 (long over due)

The Colosseum itself.. Rome's 'trademark' wei... (with Pat, Carrie, Phiek Har and yours truly)




Tossing the coin (backwards) for good fortune at the Fountain Trevi. (works so far, hehe..)




Uuu...!!! Swiss Guards!(guardians of the Vatican in their funky, colourful but cool uniforms.




Jingle bells, jingle bells...jingle all the way..




Owh what fun it is to ride on a one horse open sleigh..!!




New Year Eve's @ the Colosseum.








Bye-bye beds that we slept in for 7 days...
