the ippt last fri was cancelled again cos there was a drizzle for around 1/2 hr when we're abt to start... so i think maybe its fated that we shouldnt take the ippt so fast yet, as most of us will fail anywhere... but another 2359h book in wasted again...
yest night actually wanted to go chinatown but as one of my friend's dad passed away so go down to the wake instead... then today afternoon go jp with my mum to buy come cny clothes and cd... and btw, if u want to buy cd or vcd should look around all the cd shop first b4 buying, as the same cd can cost $3 even though the 2 shops are just beside each other... and it's the orginal mediacrop CNY songs... one cost $18.90 and the other $21.90...
after that went raffles place with my friend to look at the business again, and i think maybe i should give it a try again... see where god leads lor... after that then go chinatown to see the new year bazzar there... didnt buy anything yet as i still going around comparing prices and also usually the price will drop as the day come closer... so wait lor... haha...

a different kind of worship
this morning worship was quite diff from normal... cos the worship leader wasn't there for the service, so there's no worship leader... so another person took over and we just sing without any lyrics or musicians... and we get to choose the songs we want to sing... :p
as for the cell grp name after some voting we've decided to call it Yo! or Young Ones... cos they're all secs 1.. then made me feel younger... those ppl are 9 years younger than me... cant believe it man...
after church went to je library... now there's pasar malam at clementi, je & jw ave 1... all for CNY so is like not much stores at each location since they'll spread out... at je all the food smell are quite strong and just by walking along the walkway from mrt to jec can make your shirt stink with the food smell liao... like too cram along the walkway also...

audit over liao... but still got other things...
the securiity audit came and go without my notice, cos it happened during my dismount day... so i don't get to experience it but it's good too cos i dun think i want to see it also.. haha...
then fri book out quite late cos we all got a foot drill punishment as some ppl try to do some funny things (sorry dont think i want to elaborate here)... then the drill make us all sweaty b4 we book out cos it's at 1300h! sianz... but luckily i can go home first b4 going out at night for dinner at PS with my batch crusaders... alot of ppl there then walk around a few times b4 settling for pasta mania... :p
then today went to vivo with one of my crusaders for movie and meal... watched blood diamond and although it's not bad but i find it quite violence... and also the aircon not cold until towards the end... think they forgot to switch on... :(

ahh... going to overweight liao...
on mon dunno why suddenly ask us to measure height and weight and dunno why my height is shorter but as expected my weight gains abit... and i'm less than 1kg b4 i go to the overweight zone!!!!! :(:( cannot eat too much liao but i think it mostly came from sleeping too fast after eating... cos of the duty schedule sometimes have to do at night and no choice have to slp during the day and that causes it... if not cos my metamolism is quite high so it's easier to burn off the excess so i can still maintain it if i follow the regular lifestyle... but if i sleep after eating then i dunno what will happen... :(
i think must also exercise more la then the ippt last fri was cancelled cos of the rain but now i also confirm fail one... esp the standing board jump... running i dunno what's like now cos i didnt time for very long liao...
then after book out that day still eat seoul garden.. die die die... now dunno what's the weight... but the last few days tried to eat less and not sleep so soon after eating... but now it becomes that i'm soooooooo tired from the lack of slp :(:( ORD come faster leh!!!

SP open house 2007
b4 the met up yest, i also went back to SP to see the open house and innovex, and also to see some of my junior's projects...
time really flies man... those juniors were still year 1s when i was year 3... and now they're gruduating soon... another 3 more weeks they'll be having their final exams liao... and those born in 1990 are entering JCs or polys this year...
i managed to change by 'status' there as visitors instead of alumni there... haha, and join those sec 4s to get the goodie bag and ice cream... haha... but at the innovex like there's leser ppl than last year... think is becos it's still too early in the year and some ppl don't expect the open houe to be held so early and also fewer sec schs brought their students here... esp those exhibiton further in... seems like pratically there isn't any visitor and the rooms are fill with their own ppl instead...
from what i see i think innovex 2008 might be held at the end of the year instead of next yr cos next yr the exams starts even earlier, on 21 jan... this year it gonna start on 29 jan... so till then...

meeting up with my Aussie team mates
yesterday, i planned a meet up with my gen12 australia team mates from the 2005 trip... it's been quite long since we last met and currently one of us are back in singapore for a few weeks so i decided to take this chance to meet up together b4 she goes back there to study...
we had 6 ppl out of 12 ppl from the team came... it's qutie disappointing at first but nowadays everyone have their own things to do and i also not free everyday also ma.. so ok lor... we went to sakae sushi at citylink mall... suprisingly we got a table immediately when we reach there... cos i thought have to queue up v long since it's sat evening... but i think there's too many outlet around... that area got 4 altogether... citylink, funan, marina & suntec...
it's really good to catch up with one another, and 1 of them even have not met the other 1 for more than 1 year.. cos they always not present together during all the meet up last year... oh man... that's not having met up for the entire 2006...
hoping that we can meet up again next month as another ppl from the team come back from melbourne as she's studying there also...

it's 2007 already... yeah... and it's going to be the year of my ORD... haha... another 8 mths 9 days more... but the best thing is that i think by mid-july i can start clearing leave and i'm going back to study in end-july...
so plus i going to lead a new Sec 1s cell in my church this year with 2 other ppl, it's going to be a challenge year and also with lots of transitions since i going to uni... and i forsee i should be v busy in the 2nd half of 07 esp when i start studying...

The journey of Hong Kong
The hong kong trip… I was fun n excited in the beginning as me and my family make the way to the airport at 5.30am… then when I reach the airport, got a surprise! I met my church pastor there also as he’s going to Cambodia with 3 of my church members… so qiao… haha… then the flight was delayed cos one runway was closed so all the plane have to land and take off at the same runway, and landing planes have priority, so that’s why…
We reach hk at abt 12.30pm… after that we went back to hotel b4 going for sightseeing… the hotel was a great disappointment… it’s sooooo small that after putting in the luggage, there’s NO space to walk, and some more must shift the bed in order to open the fridge!
But that didn’t dampen our spirit la… cos I think we’ll spend most of the time outside… the tour guide bring us for a desert b4 going ladies street for shopping, after that a temple which I dun understand what’s going on, then dinner at lei yue men… then go to Victoria peak for a great view of hk city… but too bad can only stay there for 15mins.. cos I really love the view and the temperature there… abt 18 deg…
2nd day there… we went for dimsum breakfast b4 going to repulse bay, stanley market, aberdeen fishing village, jwellery factory… but like v rush so didn’t get to see much in each place… after that went for a roast goose lunch which I eat quite a lot… then we went to the train station to go Shenzhen… took abt 45mins b4 we reach the immigration, and have to stamp the passport twice… haha…
In Shenzhen, the traffic there is move on the right side one, cos is china liao ma… haha… the hotel there was a total difference from hk… there it’s so big and cozy, with a big lobby & a Christmas tree there… and I really hope I can stay there for the whole trip… we went for dinner which I can’t each much cos I too full after eating too much lunch… then went for shopping… there the things are really cheap… like only abt 1/3 of the price here…so buy a lot of things there… but too bad only got 2 hrs, have to rush like crazy… :p
3rd day… got a buffet breakfast at the hotel café…there got play Christmas carols but the CD keep on getting jam… so quite funny also… haha… then we go to windows of the world where the whole’s famous landmark are all there! Like the paris effiel towel, Nigeria falls, etc etc… there also got a snowcity and we get to go in for a while and experience temp of -10 deg… wow soooo cool…
After lunch, went for a ‘medical talk’ and my parents spend like more than $1000+ sing dollar for the medicine… hope it works well… then we went to splendid china but we only got 45mins there so have to rush like crazy again… we just took the tram and finish everything in less than 30mins and didn’t absorb anything at all except for some randomly shot photos which are unclear due to the fast moving tram… like wasting money sia… L but the cultural was great… after that pay S$8 for a dinner which seems to be the worse one for the trip… then we went back to hk…
On 4th day, in the morning f&e b4 we go Disneyland at 10am… it was suppose to be a fun-filled day after reaching there… but the weather was like so hot so a bit sian… then after a while my brother starting to feel dizzy and sick so he and my mum go back to hotel first… so left me and my dad… we just walk around and took some rides… the queue were so long so like one ride took abt 1hr… also ate lunch n dinner there, plus managed to catch the beautiful fireworks there…
But after we left Disney, things starts to turn bad not just for me, but the whole tour group… my bro was already puking vomiting n diahorrea in the hotel and I also started puking on the way back to hotel.. think is the stupid dinner at disney’s starliner cos after eating that I started to feel werid… plus a few others also starting vomiting b4 that… so 3 of us went to the hospital…
Throughout the night I keep vomiting and having diahorrea… sianz man… haven had that for v v long time liao.. then had to have it overseas.. LLL but not just me and my bro… but another 10 ppl in the group also fall sick at the same time.. so together like 12 out of 17 ppl in the group were sick on the last day.. so no mood for shopping at all but to go hospital or lie on the bed…
So everyone was like dying as we left the hotel to the airport… then we were late due to all the waiting… plus have to take so many travellators to reach the aircraft… almost died… then another bad thing… the plane couldn’t take off due to some fault, and we had to sit in the plane for almost 1 ½ hrs b4 it took off… plus the dinner provided was sucks too… although we already had no appetite the sucky dinner plus the delay made it worse… so in all the last day was a total disaster…
But thank god we’re all back safety in one piece and have recover from the illness...
We reach hk at abt 12.30pm… after that we went back to hotel b4 going for sightseeing… the hotel was a great disappointment… it’s sooooo small that after putting in the luggage, there’s NO space to walk, and some more must shift the bed in order to open the fridge!

Booking out after 1 week & Asian Food Fair...
Finally, i get to book out after staying in camp for 1 week for the exercises... although during the 7 days we did not clock as much hours per day as compare to normal duty days due to NS men helpout, we're still very tired... think is because we did not sleep normal hours for too many days ba (cos have to do duty at night ma)...
there's 1 day where i even stay on the bed for abt 12 hrs.. but still tired after that, cos got alot of distraction in the bunk as ppl go and come back from duty and of course noise will be generated... the funny thing is when i slp i set the alarm but it ring immediately... as it is the analog type so if its on it'll ring every 12 hrs..haha...
during those 7 days also got to wear helmet for duties on some days and also 1 of the day must eat combat ration... its quite tiring to wear helmet for duty as it's heavy... feel like fainting after 4 hrs... but thank god he brought me through all these and it's back to normal now... by right it shd be 'special' for tmr as there's NS men so we do not have to do so much but last min they say they are only doing till today, so tmr is back to normal routine... so it's really 'normal' duty back again from now...
then today i went for the asian food fair... nowadays like those food and IT fair are getting more and more popular... every 3 mths got one... another IT showm SITEX is coming next thurs to sun... shd be going down but dunno if will buy anything or not... going broke liao... today just bought some nougats for $30...

as next week we're having an exercise, the last sat was like just a 'practice'... the real one will like come this coming weekend, either sat or sun... so like very sianz cos have to keep on standby and cannot go out freely... then the worst thing is for this recall is not just sign and go off... will have to stay in for abt a week...

Great World CIty
went to great world city on fri, just after bookout... it's been quite long since i last went there and there're some changes there... Got new basement 2 but then the whole shopping centre looks quite dead even on fri nite... i think is becos of the location (must take bus) and after OG left, there's not much other things to do...
i went there to meet up with my former crusade DG members... we have commited to meet once a month, and the reason it's held there is becos the staff got a discovery weekend at BB HQ just beside great world... so managed to revisit the place and to catch up with the rest, esp 1 of them is going ex-wallaby next mth...

DeepaRaya holiday!
it's the starting of the festive seasons! with deepavali and hari raya just days apart... but as i was doing shift duty i was on duty from last fri to sun, thus was working thru the deepavali... then i off on mon and tue, which includes today's hari raya puasa...
yest i went back to SP crusade to meet up with some friends... quite alot of NS guys went back yest, esp those in BMT as tue is holiday so usually they won't ask the recruits to go back tekong for just 1 day, so they give them off...
we decided to go for dinner, together with the rest of the crusaders... at first we planned to go thai express at tiong bahru plaza, but it was full house liao... then our group like very big.. abt 20+ ppl... so we decided to go to harbour city restaurant which is like very little ppl inside and is the only place which can accomodate us in one piece... it's like quite a high class restaurant then to us ppl which behave like we're in clementi kopitiam like very funny... also the food is very ex.. a plate of fried rice cost $9++... then beside that my table alone got $17 worth of peaunts, tea, towel... so is like each person must pay $12...still got another table...
beside that it's quite good to rekindle those days together while i'm still student, and catch up with them... but now the trend still like not much year 1s are joining us seniors... hope more can join in the future...
and btw, selemat hari raya puasa!

a peaceful mount...
after an evenful mount last week (which i can't elaborate much as it is sensitive, cos it's SAF ma), nothing much happened this week... just that too many ppl got att C so there's not enough manpower... have to do 24 hrs duty over 2 days... usually is around 20 hrs...
nowadays the haze seems to be getting worse... the PSI is over 100 for some of the days... have to wear maze for duty if not cannot stand the smell... and somemore it's unhealthy... and i think becos of the haze more ppl are falling sick...
yest after dismount we were told to clear some of the prows... but the one which i'm working on got a big ant nest there so we could not finish the task... after that some of us went to sakura at parkway parade for a high tea buffet... it cost $16.90... is consider cheap compare to alacarte sushi as the market price is $1.90 per plate... but if compare to lunch which is $20, is consider ex cos the lunch got alot more things, beside the sushi...
