Merry x'mas!

Ha ha. Season's greetings everyone! Enjoying my book out. Sort of. Had a mini class outing last nite, all boys, supposedly. We (no no, yk, keni, yc, me(i) ) went lau pa sat for a small dinner first, before going fullerton to see ws n his ipod nano. :p Then qq came, and the seven of us went mac for some night snack. (Apple pie rox; bet ws thinks so too). Nvm.

Anw, a wonderful x'mas everyone! Thanks to all four who send x'mas cards, n others who communicate by other possible methods (sms, telepathy, phone, blah blah blah). Hope u all enjoy urself this festive season!

Back to work. Sigh. That reminds me. Still got visions to write out. Sigh. And i can't stand watching movie on channel five. Commercial breaks're def stupid n long, esp when there're no epl matches to watch this weekend.

Combi of flu n cough now. Recovering fine. I think.

Back!

Today is my book out day, book out, book out
Today is my book out day, book out book out day.

(Sang to the tune of some song of which i forgot the title)

First two wks of ns rox. Even watched LOTR once, the third one, after the sergeant major (CSM) brought forward the foot drill to before lunch, so we've a whole afternoon off.

More interesting stuff:

We're banned from running up n down the stairs! Ha ha. Cos some joker slipped when doing so during a 1-min toilet break. That person's already fallen a few times before lor. So, maybe it's his prob. No one's complaining though...

Reallie reallie a great thank-you to prom. Went in one day late, so entered a diff company (pegasus instead of mohawk (i think) ). Quite gd for me, since those mohawk ppl once woke me up half an hour early by their marching n shouting. Wtj.

Digress a bit. Mac messenger reallie sux. Unreliable. Some prob again. Nvm.

Talking about digressing. Our OC (officer-in-command) n CSM reallie rox in doing so. Esp the CSM. Can reallie talk for so long, like one entire afternoon, while all of us're sitting down. Imagine listening to 4 continuous periods of lectures without getting up. But their talks quite interesting lah. So no complaints.

My bunk's haunted! Sian. Got this guang yin hanging on the door, some ppl seeing n feeling... excess stuff, n OC confirming it when we got him to tell ghost stories. Sigh. Went to the toilet once at twelve plus at nite alone. Din see anything though. So good. Maybe onlie a selected few'll see stuff.

Think everyone's cursing the route march yesterday, esp since it came so close to being called off, after some rain before it. But it's the most fun of the marches lor. Cos we got to sing... unofficial n more vulgar variations of boring army songs... led by our sergeants of cos.

Anw, book out rox. But book in... sian. The suffering'll start from tue. Merry Christmas!

Back from cameron. Just realised s'pore rox. No, or few, traffic jams. =D

Will do a more detailed update after two wks. Now tired.

MORE MOUNTAIN AIR!

Anw, in case I forgot again, we had TWO FREE RIDES at genting! :p The ferris wheel n the indoor roller coaster. Ha ha.

Quite sian. Why do they've to place a double week just before I go for ns? That means I'm forced to play some players that I normally wouldn't have put. Nvm.

Reallie in need of more mountain air. Think my Hb levels a little low le. Must stock up before ns. So, going cameron earlie tmr morn with my familee up to the 6th. That means, it's nearly impossible to contact me thru sms or phone during this period of time. Haven't ruled out telepathy yet, though I seriously doubt that's possible. Anw, I wish myself a happy n safe vacation! =D

"Regarding your application for deferment, I am sorry to inform you that due to administrative reasons, you would have to adhere strictly to the letter dated in October." Sad. Nvm. Prehaps today's soccer session's the last class outing before ns. Ha ha. Damn tired, esp after sat today, which's mentally demanding. Time allocation for essay sux. Will go sleep earlier...

Finally started on the autographs that're left. Sigh. Sometimes, just seem like there's not much to write. I mean, on some occasions, words just can't describe well. Crapping'll serve the purpose better.

What a trip!

Ha ha. Genting rox. (Class trip). Enjoyed everything we did there. Took more roller coaster rides in the past two days than in my first five yrs of life, n reallie liked the turns n double 360 n flying coaster. Other stuff like vertical drop n spinner also nice lor, though got quite sian by bumper cars when my car just stopped moving totally IN THE MIDDLE of the place, so ended up getting rammed left right centre. Nvm.

Think the highlight's reallie the second day, when everyone went karaoke. Losing voice sux. Shouldn't have screamed so much on the previous day. But, great fun there, as all of us picked the songs that we liked (inc songs like ABC n it's a small world), n we all sang together in unison (not in tune though, more screaming than singing sometimes, but who cares) n just rocked the whole place down (It's my life). Some songs're quite sad lor, like auld lang syne. Nvm.

Anw, some shortlists:

TOP TEN THINGS I LIKE BEST ABOUT GENTING (not in any order):

1. Ability to stay awake. Esp impt when u wanna enjoy late nite movies n several hours of bridge. Onlie downside's that ppl started dozin off at dinner if they onlie slept for like less than an hour on the ride to kl from genting...

2. Cards! Ha ha. Mass bridge sessions that last all the way to the morn n for the entire train ride. Though brain cells start dying very soon, n ppl start becoming crazy n making crappy remarks...

3. Flying coaster. Look quite scary from outside rite. But actually, quite fun n slack lor. Like all the turns when we faced the nice blue sky. Started to get used to having ur body being thrown around at weird angles to the ground, so the corkscrew ride became quite slack.

4. All the roller coaster rides. Ha ha. The rapid drops n double 360're nice, n the abrupt turns for the indoor one make them very memorable1

5. Singing! Ha ha. Enough said. Having 19 ppl singing together rox!

6. Weather! Quite coolin' lor. At least this's expected from genting, unlike 29 deg celsius from some european c'try aug last yr...

7. Bowling n table soccer (lumped these two together for the simple reason that they're found at the same place). Composure's def needed for table soccer, otherwise one side'll end up winning 5-0 without any shot on target. Bowling's fun! Reached my first 100. :p

8. Shopping! Ha ha. Quite liked the free time before dinner on the second day, when I could just wonder about n doing some window shopping. Spotted numerous others (we all got separated), n even saw kelvin li from s78! =D Actually he spotted me first, but nvm. No diff.

9. New country! Nice culture to be exposed to rite, and learning to sing songs of other languages reallie promote racial harmony n understanding.

10. Everyone who went! Cos u all made this trip great!


TOP TEN THINGS I TOTALLY SIAN WITH THE TRIP:

1. Bumper cars. Somehow the power connection got cut off in the middle. Sian.

2. Go kart. Totally boring due to lack of speed, esp when u've a lousy car that can so easily be overtaken.

3. Weather. Having such strong winds rushing at u along the slope sux. And mountain rain n mist just made things even worse. Felt... sad, about those ppl freezing at the outdoor ferris wheel.

4. Train. Din sleep well at all on the way to kl. Woke up numerous times throughout the 3 hours of sleep, prob when the train starts decelerating or accelerating. Not to say, the lack of space's horrible. Hard to fit my luggage along with my body in the same compartment, n even harder to play cards.

5. Lack of clear road directions. Jo n I went to a diff arcade as the rest of the guys lor. Wasted an hour which can be put into other gd uses. And quite interesting to see ppl going diff ways to the same destination (since yk's grp n irene's grp insist their way's rite), n end up meeting again before we arrived at that place. Displacement same, time same, so avg velocity same! :p

6. Food n service. The hotel ah. Why did they have to serve all the food at one go? They're assuming all the plates can fit onto the table. And some of the food sux. RAMLY BURGER!!! Nvm.

7. Poor pranking skills. Onlie banging on walls and prank-calling're notable. Too bad the cleaning service din operate at nite...

8. Lost voice after so much screaming. Sigh.

9. Failure to grab ws back into the rm, n ended up getting 3 kicks on the same part of the leg.

10. Time to part. Ha ha. Guess saying gd-bye after being together is the inevitable part of life. Nvm.

Wanna wish yk n glo an earlier happy bday first now. Take care at tekong k! Cya next wk! :p

Oh yeah. Talking about bdays. We bought cakes for those born in dec, n think there're some left-overs on the table... The moth should like it. :p
