Yes, as the title suggests, it has been an amazing and ridiculously long time since I blogged. Well I’m pretty sure no one comes to my blog these days, or even way before for that matter. But I have decided to write something here just out of plain boredom.

Today is my off day but I have nothing on so I decided to stay at home and rot. My girlfriend is busy with her attachment and my friends have either booked in or are busy with their work. Just to update, I have one more year to go before I ORD!! Yes, I have been looking forward to my ORD ever since I enlisted. While the first few weeks in the SAF had been really hard for me, I have since came to terms with losing my Pink IC and I look forward to the day I get it back. I am not entitled to say anything regarding life in the SAF in case I leaked any information that is classified and ends up being sued by the soooooo regimental organization. But I would like to say that this past one year (10 months to be exact) has made me grown to be a better person (my own opinion la hehe) Although I chose the path of not being a commander in the SAF, I certainly won’t be regretting it when I ORD. That’s because I got into the Air Force and hell yeah I love the life there! That’s due to the fact that I have a bunch of course mates whom I went through thick and thin with. Although we are small, just 10 of us, but we are deadly. Plus all the unorthodox daily activities we engage in. Haha what’s life in the SAF without you guys. We might have gotten into shit countless times, but together we have gotten out of it the same number of times. We’re still alive and kicking (barely), but I’m sure we will be able to see out the remaining 1 year of our ‘vacation’.

Enough about them, I see them practically every weekday. Not being emo or what, how good it would be if we were able to turn back the clock and travel back to the days where we were missing lessons together and making fun of lecturers and stressing to complete our projects and studying for our examinations. I seriously miss my poly mates so much. They are all busy with their respective lives now. Some are in the army like myself, some are studying while the others are working. Although all of us are leading a very different life now, I’m sure each and everyone of us never fail to take some time to reminisce about the past. Anyway I hope all of you are doing great and for those who are having exams to get the best grades and for those who are working to earn more money! For those who are stucked like myself, we can only hope we are free from injuries and less outfields!

Alright I seem to talk a lot, I wonder when will be the next time I post something on this blog. Perhaps a year later when I finally ORD? Haha hopefully that day comes sooner than later. Argh just can’t wait man.

This is gonna be my last post here for the year.For the first time,I finally realise that Edwin and I will be flying off to Hefei any moment now.But FFS we haven even start to prepare and pack our luggage or whatsoever.We are jokers/slackers or any other names you can think off.We just AREN’T SERIOUS people.I swear by the time we are really there we would have forgotten to bring some things over.

I need to buy/prepare many things before I can fly.A pair of sneakers,a suit of business attire and some t-shirts.I gonna make sure I have enough to wear if not I would end up wearing the same piece of cloth for 5 months.I need to apply for an exit permit plus rescheduling my medical checkup.All these stuffs are giving me headaches,not to mention my air ticket.Somehow somewhere in my mind I just feel that I had left out something important,but I dunno what.LOL.

Enough about OIAPiece of Shit.I just wonder how different my GF will be when I finally come back from China in 5 months time.Haha 5 months may be a short while to many of you,but I swear that I am definitely going to miss her nonsense/her not-so-funny-but-lame jokes/her tickling and everything about her during my attachment.We haven’t really had a long relationship yet,just 5 and a half months old in case some of you are wondering.But I am sure we’ll make it through.=)By the way,I am missing you while I typed this!

Gonna freaking wake up earlier tml.Guess what time I woke up today?5.30pm.Fuck me,not literally though.I just dunno what the hell in my body that is keeping me from waking up earlier.My mind has been trying very hard to get me up from bed,but on the other hand my body and limbs just couldn’t agree,that’s why I stayed in bed till the sun set.By the time I finished preparing myself and ready to go shopping for my stuffs,the shops are already closing.My first meal of the day are always dinner.Unbelievable?It’s true.

Okay I am done with the official last post for the year.I am now gonna let this blog rot to death for this year before I decide to revive it anytime next year.Any readers who happen to drop by during my absence,here’s Merry Christmas,Happy Boxing Day,Happy New Year,Happy Chinese New Year (Gong Xi Fa Cai) and Happy Valentine’s to all of you!

Till then.=)

I am seriously about to bore to death doing absolutely nothing constructive for the past few weeks(only spending time with my gf and frens are considered constructive).I WANT to WORK.Give me a hotel seriously.IS waiting the only thing we can do atm??I dun care as much for this OIAP as some of my fellow peers do.Guan Ji is the classic example.He had already packed all his stuffs and raring to go but this stupid waiting game is driving him crazy already.He told me he can’t sleep at night and he only has China in his mind now.Poor fellow.On the other hand,Edwin and I have done absolutely nothing for OIAP yet.Guess we will only really bother if the in-principle arrives in school.

School started for those who needed to attend them.(HAHA I feel so relieved that I no need to attend school anymore=p)Suddenly I have so little time to meet up with my GF because of her studies.She even has to work on some days too.The holidays have been great,where I get to spend 24 hours everyday with her.But definitely no more of such luxury.NVM,i’ll try to meet her whenever she has the time to.=)Anyway she got herself a NDS and I’ve also met her MUM for the first time yesterday.Seems pretty friendly and nice.SO unlike her daughter!Okay I am just joking.

There’s seriously nothing else for me to blog about.I wouldn’t want to write down my daily routine which I am very very sure will bore you readers to death.Sleep,eat,play,sleep,eat,play.I am just like a prisoner stucked at home.Think I should just start preparing my luggage for the trip.But what if this hotel flops again?Alright then,I better think again.

P.S.:Cheer up Guan Ji and others who are waiting for the IPA(including myself),I believe the needed documents will arrive very soon.Take it easy man.=)

Erm does anyone have the answer as to when we are gonna start work?I am seriously very very sick of doing nothing but slack already.I am really afraid that once work commences,I wont be able to wake up on time and later haven start work I am already sacked le,for being late.LOL.

Sue Tan just gave Edwin and I another new hotel for the 100000000000000th time since we signed up for OIAP.It’s called Holiday Inn Hefei.No interviews required this time round and it has been 6 days since we last heard from her.Guess she’s gonna give us another option again.HAHA.I wanna fly to China asap,but on the other hand I am afraid I will badly miss the people who have been so close to me.Really having mixed feelings about OIAP.I’m sure most of us feel this way too.

Okay enough about OIAP.It’s driving us nuts.Have been spending the past few days with my GF.Gonna make sure I spend enough time with her in case I need to fly.My gf’s a joke joker.It’s not her jokes that make me laugh,it’s actually her who I am laughing at.(She doesn’t know this=p)But this means I am always happy when I am with her..hahaha..and of course I never fail to make her smile whenever shes with me toO!Time always seemed so short whenever I am with her.Plus she’s working and we have even lesser time together.I just sent her off to work just now.Now I am at home and sick of playing online games.That’s why I decide to do some blogging.LOL.

Tml is another weekend and I should be playing soccer with my secondary schoolmates.I have been telling them I might not be able to make it for anymore soccer sessions as I am going China but yet I continue to see them everyweek.They even had a farewell dinner for me last Wednesday.LOL it will be a great joke if I end up staying in Singapore.FFS,please end our agony by confirming when we can leave or whether we gotta stay.It’s pissing me off.FUCK CHINA.

Well the title says it all.Although we(the OIAP applicants that is) are priviledged to be able to sleep at 6am and wake up 2 days later or whenever you wished to,we are all damned frustrated and pissed about having to wait for that approval or whatever POS to start purchasing our air tickets and also prepare our luggage.I am all eager to start working right now but I can’t even confirm who will be my future employers..from the Shangri-la dream to the Holiday Inn saga and now Crowne Plaza’s pending decision,it’s driving me nuts..the later we start work,the later attachment ends.And we wouldn’t like it.Perhaps it wasn’t wise to choose OIAP in the first place,but the decision is already made and there is no backing out now.

Meanwhile we can only fantasize about the many things that will/can happen if we are there in China,and of course to wait and wait and wait for the permission to get our visa.Have anyone of us wondered how great it would be if the Olympics wasn’t held in China?There’s no doubting that this Olympics really took our breaths away(the opening ceremony + the Ping Pong match),but we could have already started work in China by now.

Why are we waiting?Why are we waiting?Why are we waiting?

LOL!Realised that I haven’t been blogging for more than a month.I am really sorry..=)

Can’t imagine that after a gruelling 2 and a half years,poly life is over!!No more exams for the next 3 years!!whahaha!!Next up will be the overseas attachment.Hope everything turns out well and I will come back being much more independent,sensible and of course fatter!Wonder how am I going to survive the winter though..haha..and I will definitely miss the people here..argh.=(

Anyway will be spending the remaining time in Singapore before my attachment very meaningfully for the next 3 weeks or so..there’s the much anticipated class barbecue tml..plus another one for my secondary school friend who in emigrating to Australia this coming saturday..plus spending lots of quality time with my gf of course..haha and my family and other good friends..=)

Lazy to continue le,but the thought of adapting to a completely different lifestyle in China for half a year just came across my mind..I wonder if I am ready for this challenge.ARGH!!Nvm wait till I am there then think about it.走一步算一步。船到桥头自然直。Let me enjoy freedom first.=)

Post Projects. July 20, 2008

Okay like what the title of this post suggests,the projects are finally coming to an end for us..this may mean that we will be breathing a little easier,but it also means that the exams are just around the corner,which is again bad news..=(

Okay it’s has been dunno how many light years since I last blogged.Many things happened during this period of absence,but I wouldn’t blog them all out,cause I am lazy to do so..=p

So yesterday was the BBQ with my secondary school classmates.I swear to god it was a really MEMORABLE one.The journey from MacDonald to the pit was horrendous.I walked and crawled and whatever you can think of(with both my legs)before I reached the pit.The whole journey from Mac to the pit last an hour and a half.I felt like I had walked from Boon Lay to Pasir Ris.More bad news were to follow.I barely filled my stomach with food before it started raining cats and dogs.I only managed to stuff myself asap upon reaching with 5 chicken wings and 2 hot dogs cause I knew it was going to rain.Of course with my huge appetite and all that walking which almost killed me,this amount of food was never enough to replenish the energy I lost while walking.I even had to resort to eating under an umbrella cause I was THAT hungry.The rain was so heavy until the class had to run to the shelter nearby.Our first priorty was to protect the food.Thankfully,the rain stopped after around 45 minutes before I continued eating.After eating for around another hour or so,I decided that I was full and that I had made up for the miles I had walked earlier with the sufficient amount of food intake. 

So the class went back at around 11 but I stayed cause I was spending the night at East Coast with my girlfriend.Haha it was a really memorable night for me.The cool breeze and the lovely sky was the perfect setting for such a marvellous night.Imagine spending quality time with your loved one at such a wonderful place.Haha.I shan’t elaborate cause it will make many people jealous.=)

Reached home at around 8.30am the next morning and coma-ed till 6pm.Finished up my PT stuff.Tomorrow will be having cocktail party EARLY in the morning.I bet everyone argees with me that this is a complete waste of time.Who would be having a cocktail party that early in the morning??No one but us.

Truth. June 25, 2008

Sometimes it’s just so painful to learn about a truth,and the truth is that only 2 of us(Edwin,GJ & Myself) will be able to go Holiday Inn Beijing for the OIAP.I am not trying to be emo here or something,but it really bothers me alot and I just cant stop thinking about the many possibilities at the moment.It makes me wonder that whether choosing to even sign up for this was a wise decision right from the start.

It all boils down to that phone interview,or maybe our fates have already been cruelly decided.I really dunno,and I feel really bad about this.But I still have to do my best for the interview.We still have to do our best for the interviews.That’s our last chance,and whatever the outcome might be,it cannot be changed.Just blame Shangri-la for not accepting guys.Okay I am getting a little bit overboard,but let me be,cause the 3 of us are really great friends,and we wouldn’t want to bear the sight of seeing another being left out.

Let’s all hope that things will still turn out fine at the end of the day.That’s all we can do isn’t it?HOPE.

Past life. June 20, 2008

Sometimes I wonder if I was a pig in my previous life.Back then I must be praying real hard that my next life would be a human.My prayers were heard but only in terms of my size only.I seemed to retain most of pigs other characteristics,such as eating so much,being so lazy and even sleeping for so long hours.Worst of all,I will only wake up from my sleep because I am hungry.

Okay enough about pigs,I just went running with my cousin.It’s really not easy running side by side with a commando.While he was able to breeze through the whole 6.5km route,I felt like I have just experienced a thunderstorm.But I am glad I managed to get myself to go running,because I got to start training for my upcoming NAPFA test.I really cant afford to fail.I have come to realise how important free time is to me the past few weeks.

I will finally be spending the time with my gf tml..haha it’s been many days since I had her company for a whole day.Haven’t decide what to do yet but anywhere will do as long as she;s with me!!hahahah..of course not somewhere too expensive cause I am gonna go bankrupt soon..talking about money,my mum knew that I was running out of cash and she gave me some needy cash..thanks so much!!

Had a super tiring monday yesterday..together with my group mates and jialing’s,we practically walked the entire City Hall and Dhoby Ghaut areas..no choice,had to do some competitor analysis for our PT..hopefully we do not need to do such walking again..

Ended the receeing around 4 plus..went food junction at Raffles City with Jialing and Anna to distribute work for the PT..the project can never seem to finish..after a while I left for my friend’s house..had dinner together with the rest of my 猪朋狗友 at Tiong Bahru Plaza before we headed down to City Hall(AGAIN)to play lan..it has been a while since we did such activities..haha those were the times long gone when you would always see the group of us hanging around the lan shop and playing for long long hours..now we hardly meet for such activities le..

Played till 3am in the morning before walking home..lucky I live near City Hall,if not I gonna walk for miles again.Woke up today and did my part for the PT..gonna be heading down to Mrs Emily Yap’s house for an interview tml.LOL she invited the 3 of us for lunch at her place..haha will be looking forward to seeing her..it’s been a while and she’s such a nice teacherex-teacher of ours!!

The weather these few days is sickingly SICK.The sun is so hot that it seems capable of melting humans anytime now.If we are able to go China for our OIAP,I will be the first to look forward to its weather.I am already burning while writing this post.
