Christmas getting nearer... & Billy Bombers and friends 21st bday (241106)

going down orchard road or other shopping malls, it's full of christmas decorations lol... and it's 1 more month to that big day, where our lord and saviour Jesus Christ was born!

on fri after we book out from the PLAB's 25th anniversary sports day, we went to bugis junction billy's bomber to celebrate one of our friends birthday... it's an american style restaurant and as u all know lar, western food serving are always very large... i ordered something like chicken cutlet... it also comes with a soup, drink and ice cream... plus the chicken and fries are also very big... eat until like even more full than buffet... think is becos of the chicken ba... it's more oily than the sushi we ate at sakura...

in the evening i've another friend's 21st bday bbq at amk... i went home first then go out again... so in the end reach there quite late... cos the place also far ma... but he cut the cake quite early, like 8pm cut liao.. so when i reach there they already cut the cake, but still got cake and food la... but doesn't feel that good...

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...

recall... and recall...

last sat, our whole base had a recall exercise... it involves all the sqn in the base so everyone had to go back... for me as my shift was mounting that day so i'm already in camp... luckily they go the recall at 10am which is still not so bad as it doesn't the rest of the weekend... for that one they just go sign can go off liao..

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...

so dunno got chance to go church or not, if not i'll miss having youth service for 3 mths, as the other 2 wks i'm mounting... there's no youth service since 10 Sept and if i miss this sun one, the next one i can go is 10 Dec... althought got the youth camp from 1-4 Dec, at least better...
