The camp ended last week and it can be summed up in a few words:
Small, short, and extremely fun!
My OG won Best OG! Wheee... Geishas FOR THE WIN!
LOL.
My fellow OGL was the coolest guy ever lah...had a lot fun leading our OG together. ^_^
I think on the whole the small size of the camp was what made it extremely enjoyable and memorable. I got to interact with almost everyone in the camp and that was great. It's been so long since I did all these 'leadership-esque' things lah...and I'm glad I finally have the chance to 'refresh' myself.
I got to know a few of my close friends better also...but at the expense of their liver though. Why do I say that? Aiyah, because on the last night of the camp, we had a lot of alcohol at our disposal, and some of my friends really don't go well with alcohol...a lot of secrets were shared that night. But I appreciate them more now...cos' I am sure if there had been no alcohol, I would not have heard all those things I heard.
I also got to appreciate some new friends better as well. Clarence was one of these people. I felt as though I had found a new brother. I just really want to thank you for being the person you are. Always ready to share your heartfelt opinion and always ready to show your appreciation to those around you. It's so rare to find an individual who isn't afraid to reach deep down and approach a subject from the most sensitive areas. That takes courage man...and great calmness as well.
I salute you bro!
I'm watching Harry Potter tmr! Totally geared up for it...but I am a little afraid of how long it might be...hope it's full of excitement and not too draggy. Hehe

Political Association Youth Camp
Today I went down to Sentosa to do pre-camp activities for the PAYC next week!
I'm quite psyched up about the entire camp actually! The games are a good mix of lame and fun stuff, and the whole teaching values things is expected and great as well. I shall be FUN next week, cos I think that's what the campers would appreciate the most.
I shall be FUN, COMPASSION and ATTENTIVE! Yesh...those things! HEHEHE
I learnt a few things about my friends today. I totally DID NOT know that dear Mr Lim cannot tahan balloons! Squealed like a girl lor...his manly image totally ruined. *disappointed* Clarence is freaking corny, but extremely chummy and fun to talk to as well.
Grace is really running this thing well, and I am quite glad for what is in store for us all! The fact that most of it is in Sentosa just freaking rocks! ^_^ Can't wait!
More updates soon!

ICT 4th - 8th, Tanjong Gul Camp! (REVIEW)
This post is long overdue...I have soo much to say actually, but I've just been too lazy to type out my entire experience for the past week lah. I think I will break it down into a day by day format, so that it's easier for me to remember, and easier on the eyes of all of you readers out there as well. So here goes...
Disclaimer: There will be usage of military jargon in this post. I apologise for any lack of understanding that I may generate with the usage of such terminology.
Day 1
I woke up early in the morning and dressed up. It's been awhile since I put on a No. 4 uniform, and carried my full pack. The feeling was one of nostalgia. I got on the bus and there was one other guy with the exact same 'set up' as me. One full pack, one extra big bag for stuff, and one sling bag. I was quite amused and kept grinning...the poor guy probably thinks I'm crazy or something. LOL.
On the train, there were quite a number of people reporting for their ICT as well. Everyone had the same HAIRCUT (high slope all around), same BARANG-BARANG (duffel bag & full pack day!), same CLOTHES (green's the colour of the day) and the same SIAN LOOK on their faces. Quite an amusing sight.
Dr Liem picked me up from Boon Lay station so that I didn't have to take the disgusting bus all the way in. 30mins of industrial park hell you know? yeesh...thanks, but no thanks. Once I scanned my IC and 'in-processed', it was time to do the assumption parade. Fortunately for me, I was the S1 (read: manpower officer/human resource manager etc), so I was in charge of ceremonial shit, so I did not have to form up with the rest....kekekeke. Unfortunately, it actually rained on our parade! Everyone was drenched on the first morning of the ICT...sian diao. My nicest No.4 was wet lor...and I was planning to wear it for at least two days some more.
Anyway, the main activities for the day were briefings and preparation for IPPT the next day! IPPT is the most dreaded thing in this ICT (for me lah)
Day 2
Waking up early in the morning is a bitch! But no choice, have to wake up is have to wake up. Fortunately I am an officer, so got abit more freedom. Heehee...
I head down to the ELISS centre...it's this new automated centre where everything is tracked by a chip in a number tag issued to you. Quite cool actually. My Standing Broad Jump (SBJ) actually passed leh! I managed a 216cm...amazing. I guess all that squatting in the gym really did count for something. The other stations were not too bad. Chin-ups I managed 8 only, a bit lacklustre compared to my fellow officers - most of them managed 12. Shuttle run and sit-ups were still 5 points for me - 9.9secs and 43 sit-ups.
My 2.4km run was the ultimate test. Although I had cleared my SBJ already, I did not know whether my running would still be able to make it you see. They have a gantry system in Tanjong Gul, where you run through it, and there are sensors which pick up the chip in your number tag. I cleared my first round in 5mins 45secs...quite slow actually, and in the second round, I began to get the 'shit-this-is-confirm-a-13mins-plus-run' feeling. My RSM was at the gantry cheering all of us on you see...he kept shouting to all the HQ officers, "Come on Sir! Go go go!" Hahahaha...see? really came true lor my prediction. By that time, though I was dispatched first, the other HQ officers had already passed me. My S3, CO, QM, MO, S4...so you can probably guess how I was feeling.
I still rushed for the finish line anyway, and when the scoreboard registered my crossing with a beep and a lighted score, I was delighted to see 12mins 15secs on the electronic scoreboard! Amazing!!! After not doing anything with regard to IPPT for TWO YEARS, it's amazing that I could still pass! Wheee!!! ^_^ RSM was most impressed that all the Principal Staff Officers (PSOs) managed to pass their 2.4km run, and he kept praising all of us, saying, "Wah, all the PSOs in this battalion 'eh zao eh'." (This means 'can run one' in Hokkien)
I was happy the entire day, and I certainly enjoyed my night's off that day. Met up with my friends (Gerald and Alex) who lived near to Jurong Point, and we walked the entire mall, like, 20 000 times? LOL...JP is really only THAT interesting. My day ended with Alex seeing me off, and Dr Liem coming to pick me up to go back to camp together. Whew...the scariest part of ICT for me is finally over! Heehee...yay
Day 3 -5
These days were filled with a lot of 'army stuff'. This means more military jargon then I care to share, and general complaints about the inefficiency of the NS administration. But those things aside, the people who were from my higher HQ are still very nice people, and I am glad that I have a team of dedicated people willing to explain the workings of NS administration to me. ^_^
Thanks also to the friends in my unit for making life bearable as I fought a hard one week battle with fucked up systems and terribly thick-headed chief clerks. Hahaha...new friends were made during the week, and old friends updated. Aaah...my life is good. S1 supposed to be super stressful, but I am lucky to have so many friends around me supporting me. ^_^
747 Guards is going to be a GREAT NS unit! (yes, my unit number is freaking cool lah!)

I will be having my first ever in-camp training until Friday! I'm actually quite excited to meet up with all my friends from my NSF unit! Heehee...
I have IPPT on Tuesday morning, and I know I'll probably fail terribly...sigh. I can so imagine the sergeant saying this:
"Sir! Come on Sir! You can do it!"
Sooo paiseh can? Haiz...what to do? When you let yourself go, you can only expect things like that. Well, I'm looking forward to seeing all my fellow officers again! We had fun times during our NSF days, so I hope the coming week will the same.
First day will be a bitch for me...confirm a lot of jokers AWOL, report late...blah blah blah...ah well...gambatte ne for me!
Seeya all next weekend!

Musings
As I walk with trepidation into this new life, I think about the severity of my actions in my past life. It seems as though I have learnt many new things about myself, or at least they seemed to be new things. I highly suspect they are things that I've always known, and just have not thought about for a long while.
The ability to socially meld into any setting is a powerful one, and is something that should be cherished. I do, however, wish to be able to project this ability differently - into more, umm, varied facets of my life. The shining Sun sprays forth its golden light into the world, and ignites growth and power in all beings. That being said, the darkness within men's hearts are also a strong power, when our hearts and minds happily act as conduits for this vileness that resides in all of us.
Of wisdom and courage, we have some, and sadly even that is rarely exercised. Follies in judgement often lead to heartache and frustration, eventually cyclical patterns then forever taking hold. Drawing reference from my favourite Naruto - you will always be forever stuck in the genjutsu, until you die, or disrupt with your flow of chakra. It's pretty interesting how the simplest solutions are ever present around us, and yet we fail to see them with our eyes which have grown myopic and petty and stubborn over the years.
This long holiday is going to be just that - a LONG holiday. The annoyance of it all...sighz...what to do? Next week is ICT (In Camp Training) for me, and I am quite looking forward to it, and yet dreading all that I have to accomplish within the few hours of the commencement of the ICT. *fingers crossed*
On a brighter note, I've met new friends recently, and they all seem like well-mannered, technically well-adjusted individuals of our harsh society. Good good...more sane people to support and to be supported by. Whew...such is the grace of the universe, the people, and the powers that be. *ommmm*
LOL...
This post has been a random musing brought to you by XJ. May you glean whatever wisdom you may find in it (goodness knows I sure can't find any..hehe), and take home whatever pleasure you may gain from reading this post.

Worst Semester Ever!
I got crap grades...
CAP actually dropped by 0.2...
Gosh...those of you who remember my previous CAP score will now know that my plans of doing Honours are in danger. I think small class sizes really screwed me this semester, and I DO NOT (for the life of me!) have the 'sociological imagination'.
Anyway, not in the best of moods right now, and PLEASE don't ask me if I'm ok...I hate that shit. You have to be specially 'trained' to navigate that area of questioning without me thinking that you sound like the greeting card attached to the wreath they send to funerals. LOL
I guess that makes it super clear about where to put my priorities next semester i.e. no more CCA shit for me. I can build my CV in other ways. Sighz...
Off to tuition, poor uni student, with crap grades, still needs his $$$ you know?
Ciaoz!

i thank you so much for knowing me that well...
thank you so much from the bottom of my heart...
really love you for being here for me
^_^

I am glad that I managed to tell him that I loved him and that I was thankful for all his love.
He was waiting for me to come see him...only me...
Then he left...

Pimp My Motor Vehicle!
Welcome to today's episode of Pimp My Random Motor Vehicle! Today we have a special treat for everyone! What vehicle are we pimping tonight? We are pimping an SBS bus!!! Can you believe it?!
Neither can I! Here we go....
Today, we are aiming for the lounge/club/bar look and feel...wish us luck!
Luscious sofa-like seats replace the usual boring two-seaters! Faux leather in pristine white covers the entirety of the seat, promising luxurious comfort for commuters. No longer do you have to cram your backside into a narrow seat - perfect for SBS's plus-sized commuters! How considerate, don't you think?
For those who prefer to exhibit a more individualistic self, we have installed comfortable one-seaters that promise to accommodate the most prosperous of behinds. These seats will not be able to swivel around as you would usually expect, for we are aware of the safety requirements. We certainly do not want our commuters falling all over the place. ^_^
To fully complete the lounge-ish feel, we have installed a mock up of a bar, complete with our very own glossy bartender. Handsome isn't he? Remember to pop by the bar for a chat or a drink.
This has been an excellent episode of Pimp My Motor Vehicle! Remember to tune in next week for our exciting season finale! ^_^

All Over Again
Sitting there by his bed, I watched him sleep.
It was not an easy sight to bear as I held his hands and felt the coldness,
Or rather, the absence of warmth.
I thought to myself how great it would be if I could really channel heat through my hands to his.
Of course, there is no such thing.
The closest I've heard is reiki and related forms of energy channeling.
And even then there are detractors very much against the practitioners of such disciplines, though I have personally experienced the 'art' performed on myself.
Whatever the case was, I placed my hands over his and commented how cold they felt.
He merely nodded, eyes closed, somewhat unresponsive.
I no longer knows what he wants; communication is almost lost.
He places both palms together, in the fashion of praying, and moves them back and forth -
as though doing so would invoke the spirits to have mercy on him.
I just sat there, content to stare into his old face, carved full of lines by time and experience.

(The feeling of indifference is probably a defense mechanism to protect myself from the pain that is eminent. And no, I still haven't told him I love him. I need to figure out the words first. Yeah yeah, excuses excuses...)
I remember staring at the family portrait hanging in the living room.
I was only 7 or 8 then, I don't remember.
She was still around then. I remember her loud voice filling the home and making it whole all the time.
When she left, she took half the home with her, and we moved into a new place, with only half of what we once had.
Now, he may leave soon, taking the other half with him. The silence that was his will soon be gone, just the noise was hers and had left with her passing.
Then all that will be left is an empty home...and newfound independence and sadness all mixed together in one confusing package.I was only 7 or 8 then, I don't remember.

I still want to be able to channel warmth through my hands, to replace that absence of heat in the cold hands of others.
I miss you...every single day... ^_^

Some bitchy things you can say to a person with dandruff...LOL

Just finished my EL2111 paper today...it sure was fun! Picture this...
Got time:
*copying from notes*

*sense of satisfaction*
No time:
*copying from notes*
*thinks to self*: Hmm...no time liao...
*continues copying*
Don't you just love open book papers? ^_^
My next paper is next Monday! Gosh...I have so much time can? I will be printing out my notes tmr, and then I will file them and look through them. I think I will allocate some time for my EL3254 (also open book) as well. Because I have sooo much time, I am soooo tempted to just go and buy my Nightfall chapter, and start a little bit on it can? Argh...
*resists the GuildWars demon*
Been studying with Leo in CL this semester, cos we're sharing THREE modules anyway...talk about overkill man. But we're cool, even though we quarrelledthe most times this semester...hahaha...too close for comfort liao. =P
Anyway, we were having our usual bitchy day in the library yesterday, and guess what? Karmic retribution!
This is what happens when you badmouth someone for the entire morning. One third of your chicken the uncle serves is made of fat and skin! Hah...too bad for Leonard...he had to deal with all this fat...I was clever enough not to buy from the chicken rice stall in business. I had a much nicer noodle dish from the Beijing Feng Wei stall.
See? Much nicer right? Hahaha...anyway, we were so bored that stupid Leo decided to play a practical joke on me! And Tien did not even stop him! Grrrrrrrrrr..................

Anyway, we were having our usual bitchy day in the library yesterday, and guess what? Karmic retribution!
This is what happens when you badmouth someone for the entire morning. One third of your chicken the uncle serves is made of fat and skin! Hah...too bad for Leonard...he had to deal with all this fat...I was clever enough not to buy from the chicken rice stall in business. I had a much nicer noodle dish from the Beijing Feng Wei stall.
See? Much nicer right? Hahaha...anyway, we were so bored that stupid Leo decided to play a practical joke on me! And Tien did not even stop him! Grrrrrrrrrr..................
I kenna bullied lor...haiz....and this THING is supposed to be my best friend...ugh...*disgusted*=======================================================
Two more papers to go! Gambatte ne! ^_^
I am going to sleep early tonight...going to take advantage of the excellent weather!

Yummy + Random
3 for $2...good stuff! ^_^
==================================================
this was one of the most tense moments of the film...
守恒： 快点啊！
正行： 那。。。我跟慧嘉
守恒：*pretends not to hear* 啊？！
it really sucks not being able to tell your best friend the truth.
sometimes it's just being so close that makes it super difficult to say what you truly feel.
the pain of being close, the fear that the truth will destroy everything.
the notion that what you truly feel will totally rock and cause their world to crumble.
==================================================
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRO!!!!!!!!!

Bad Timing
Sitting at home waiting for a call from the hospital now...
I have to be the main liaison person, since my Mom is fucking frustrated with the staff at the hospital. Basically, we've been getting calling from the various departments of AH the entire morning, and it's truly amazing...how everything along the hospital 'process' line is so segmented that everyone is basically concerned with his or her job...
On the side of the patient/patient's family, we have to repeat out story...say...20 million times? Haha...the irony of it all lah...systems that make our lives that much 'EASIER'... RAWRS...
My Mom blew up at a trainee nurse, and trust me, you do not want to have my Mom blow up at you...you may be scarred for life...LOL. I guess I am pretty frustrated at having to deal with all this during my examination period...I just wanna sit down and study...but cannot leh...have to handle this and handle that....argh....
Just wanna rant abit...in fact, I realised that it's soo annoying that I don't even have the energy to type the situation out in full detail...
okok, I have to go now...the laundry's done...hahaha...yeah...you heard me right. LAUNDRY...since when do I do laundry right? HAHAHAHA...
Ciaoz!

English!!! ^_^
Thank you Paul for the vid, and Beth for transcribing.
Three fellows wenten into a Pubbe
and Gleefullie their hands did Rubbe
In expectacion of Revelrie
T'was the hour that was Happie
Great bottels of wine did they quaff
and had a really good laff
Til drunkedness held Full Dominion
For tis Two for the price of Onne
Yet after wine and mead and sack
men must have a massive snack
Great pasties from Cornwall
Scottish eggs, round like a Balle
Great hams, quail duck and geese
They sucked the bones and drank the grease
One fellow stood all pale and wan
For he was a vegetarian
Yet man knoweth for gluttony
stoketh the fire of lechery
Upon three young wenches round and sly
the fellows cast a wanton eye
One did approach with drunken wink
"'Ello, darling, ya fancy a drink?"
Soon they caught them on their knee
Twas like some grizzly puppetry
Such was the lewdness and debauchery
Twas like a sketch by Dick Emery
Except that Dick Emery is not yet Borne
So such comparison may not be Drawne
Then the fellows began to pale
For quail is not the friend of ale
And in their bellies much confusion
From their throats vile extrusion
Stinking foul corrupcion
Came spewing forth from drooling lips
The fetid stench did fill the pub
Twas the very arse of Beelzebub
Thrown they were from hall and trumpet
In the street no coin no strumpet
Homeward board they must quickly go
To that end the donkey stole
Their hands all with vomit greased
The donkey, well was not pleased
And threw them into a ditch of shite
They all agreed, "What a brilliant night."
