So near yet so far!

YAY! NUS has accepted me :) so the problem now is to decide if I should accept NUS or NTU.. But it'll be NUS :) better life there I think. so yup, gonna accept tonight :) and another problem that had me going for the past 2 weeks was the problem of signing on as a navy officer.. There is much to weigh but I've finally decided I'll not go for it even after so many rounds of interviews and whatever.. Even had long talks with FS Min Shan in Tekong hahahahha! I don't think I'll be able to appreciate waking up at fixed times and stick to fixed ways of doing things repeatedly.. So I guess, that's probably why I'm not signing on even thou the pay's good and stuff.. O well :)

This week's booking out has been fabulous! We got to book out on thursday night for some reason and I loving it ;D Yesterday had a great dinner night Mel and Shali.. Finally some catching up time! and Today was a day out at Sentosa with my mates from Quebac.. Nice.. I would have taken photos and whatever but o well.. I'm fugly since there was another haircut and my house is still in a MESS.. But the works are almost done from what I see.. Just the finishing touches here and there.. cool! can't wait :) POP is about 2 weeks away, 10th June to be exact.. How great.. With that BMT is gonna come to an end, it's been a blast!


LIGHTS OFF 2-2-3-0!

HAPPY BIRTHDAYS

HAPPY EARLY BIRTHDAY TO CHANSEY :) had a blast yesterday with the B2 clique.. Tianshui, Calvin, MengHong,Kim and Chansey to be exact.. First up was an afternoon hanging around town with the Reactiv peeps.. but that didn't really lasted very long and it wasn't exactly a productive hang.. ahahah.. so moving on, went around town with chansey and kim before heading to town for dinner at Sushi Tei :) love it.. The rest of the night was spent chilling and eating at Timbre :) love that place.. and some f(ed)-up lizard jumped from under the table to my leg.. disgusting shit.. took loads of photos but they're not with me now.. so i'll load them up the next book out ;) booking in today again.. damn.. and HAPPY EARLY BIRTHDAY TO ERWIN as well :D

Dilemma



Congrats to Kris Allen!
Even thou I'm in camp I still got news that Kris won! woo hoo! I thought he's better then Adam actually.. SO anyway, this week has been rather interesting in camp.. BMT is almost ending and it's been a blast ;) just got back from a KUSHIN-BO night out with some platoon mates.. kudos to Haoxun, Bronson, Jon, Justinn :D I've got no photos to post up because my house is still in a mess from the construction and I have no idea where my cam is plus I'm bald for now and fugly so no photos are allowed.. hahahahah.. BTW, my house is gonna be done soon! can't wait :D

AND!

I got my acceptance to NTU!! WOO HOO!! I finally got some form of acceptance to some uni, to NTU's sociology to be specific.. So my dilemma now is that I have to accept the offer by 1st June BUT I only had my NUS FASS interview TODAY.. so damn it.. I'm really stuck.. Can I accept the offer and later drop it if NUS does accept me? damn it, I hate such choices.. and NUS's interview today was rather weird.. my 1st question was: So why NUS over NTU? DAMN! Anyone to enlighten me?

time flies - good thing

How time flies, already half way of my BMT :) love it! this book out has been great, the whole week has been pretty kind, not too much pain.. hahahaha.. today saw myself hanging out with my platoon mates.. first up was STAR TREK! not a bad movie.. I'll give it
the story line was rather d'oh, but the action was kinda great and it's overall appealing i guess.. Dinner was at Lido and the rest of the night was spent at Timbre.. And today's band was damn awesome, they're called goodfellas or something like that.. cool.. great night, great mates.. and I think I drank a wee bit too much, time to lights off.. hahahah :D tomorrow book in 7pm,.. how 'awesome' :S

hard week..

Yo all, I'm out ;) and I survived my first field camp from NS.. Great! It's been HELL, but it's been great knowing that I survived.. so ya hahahaha! WOO HOO! Imagine not bathing or even washing your hands for 6 days.. not shitting, and not eating properly.. sleeping in the wilderness.. It reminds me so much of Survivor.. hahahah.. I'm beginning to like NS in terms of meeting my friends there now.. It's like enrolling into a new school with new friends and stuff.. so ya.. Amazingness.. Anyway got a rescheduled NTU interview this tuesday so I'm really cite bout that because it also means I get to book out! mwah hahah! Today has been a Minds Cafe day out with the ex B2 peeps.. it was surprisingly fun, with nice Peach-Apricot drink.. Yummy!
This was last week's poster buy, thanks to Caryn for the pic! :D it's going up the wall when my new room's ready :) can't wait..
Tomorrow's mothers' day so HAPPY MUMMY DAY!!

Free bird..

Finally, I'm a free bird.. and yesterday was a hang out day with chansey,kim and calvin.. Had a fun day of eating and also a sushi feast.. hahahaha.. I'm cutting the details because i can't seem to upload anymore photos besides this one.. damn it..

Thanks guys :)

Caught Wolverine today with Caryn but it's such a freaking dissapointment.. I was so expecting much more.. But i'm still staying a loyal fan of Marvel.. I'm giving this movie 3/5 simply because it's X-MEN.. I also bought a Wolvering poster for my new room :) so excited, my house has started renovation works since my enlistment.. My room is in a pathetic state right now, just like I am.. So ya.. I have to sleep in the living hall and I'm tired all the time.. hahaha.. Gonna be having a NTU interview next week but it freaking clashes with field camp, I'm wondering what to do?!? o well.. Time for bed.. seriously..

Back to life, back to REALITY

Finally, I'm back to the real world.. Life's tough in the army, but o well, as they say suck thumb hahah.. The good part about this is that i get to make new friends and got to experience things that not many others will get to, afterall everyone leads a different life.. Some parts of BMT are actually fun.. The bad part, stupid sergeants and even worse commanders that think that they're some big shots.. They're not even good examples to recruits and they expect so much.. tsk tsk.. o whatever, SUCK THUMB! hahahha.. I'm in Quebac (apparently it's a white snowy owl) company so if anyone knows anyone else in there let me know :)

Blasts nights

Had dinner with my B2 clique yesterday night at PS.. But didn't take any photos so there's nothing much to talk about.. hahaha.. The usual peeps were there, Raynard,Tianshui,MengHong,Kim,Chansey and Calvin.. Had a fun night and my phone almose got ruined but thank god, it's fine now :)

Tonight, I was at the Clake Quey area, mainly Liang Court and Central.. So dinner was at this place:

It's a restaurant that serves Italian and Japanese food kinda place.. Nice :) What was the best was probably the freeflow of Calpis (or Calpico to some people) drink! It's some Japanese Yougurt Drink that we really love.. It tastes like Yakult, and who doesn't likeYukult?

From Escargot, to Gratin and Pasta, it was a fulfilling dinner :) Topped of with Calpis of course.. hahaha :D

Suspects of the night are clear: Rachel,Tianshui,HuiMin :)
and the shots kept coming.. the photo shots i mean..

Clake Quey is actually a very nice place to hang out and go lose.. Gotta head there more often.. haha!



Even toilet time of a comrade can mean some fun for the rest :) hahahahaah!



It's been a blast the past few nights, wanna thank everyone! Danke ;D
3 more days to my dreaded enlistment.. oooooooooooooo...

Chomping it down!

FChomp Chomp was the place to be last night :) and while waiting for our dear Lydd and KH to appear, we took some self timer snaps.. Doesn't QY look like an OL --> Old Office lady? hahahaha!

Then came the real deal, CHOMP CHOMP!
I have never been to that place before and it rocks! The food was good and the atmosphere was great :) great friends with great food makes it a great night ;)

Desert Bowl was next, all thanks to Lydd, we were introduced to this place which I happen to find cool! And the photos kept coming :)
Reading magazines like NAN YOU hahaha.. Funny name..

And the highlight: the heavenly deserts they serve.. It was awesome! Especially the Durian Puree.. It's so good you'll feel that you've left earth for a moment.. Seriously.. Go try it people! It's just around the corner from Chomp Chomp, somewhere in Serangoon.. So ya.. Haha, have fun :)

Guess where else we went..
hahaha, just miniature stuff.. Cool thou..
Thanks guys!! :D ZX,QY,KH & LYDD
My cam is a little spoilt and old, hence the blurry and funny looking pictures.. Sorry bout that :X
Today happens to be Good Friday as well as 清明.. so I went ,for the very first time, to my great grandmothers' tomb to 扫墓.. Learnt some stuff about my heritage actually..I found out she actually passed away while mum was pregnant with me.. and that my name (chinese name I think) was already fixed way before I was delivered.. Interesting.. My ancestors were from China (some part that conversed in hokkien or something like that), I think it was 3 generations before me that settled in Singapore, so that makes me pretty much 'new immigrant' in a way.. hahaha.. Great! Always good to find out about your background..

Experiment

I'm so super tired so I can't really blog about my fun night out.. But as promised this is my experiment on Squid Ink Pasta.. First impressions, it was tasteless --> the aftermath was horrible.. I had the taste in mouth for the next 5 hours or something.. Could even taste it during training.. It's colour was unappetising as well.. so ya.. hahahah.. It's an experimental failure.. but o well.. Will update on my fun night out after I get some beauty sleep :)

Last day of work

Had my last day of work yesterday and had some shopping during the day with Caryn! Meeting one last time before my enlistment..

Just looking at the food and we all know that we went to Shokudo!!! (yes yes once again) hahahah:D I had to had to have my mochi balls before I enter..

we ordered some Nabe porridge thingy and it was infested with spring onions.. gross.. But the porridge thingy is not nice.. seriously.. we didn't even ate 1/10 of it..

A little kinder joy was fun :)



And this Milk Tea rocks! It seperates the bubble tea kind from the real deal..

Shopping was next and I got a new pair of shorts :) my freaking belt broke while I was in the changing room.. retarded.. And a new pair of Adidas Sneakers.. hahahahha.. I've so many shoes already but I keep getting new pairs.. Gonna decide on throwing one out today ;)

It was our fun day out in Orchard getting our hair stuck on some sticky board.. HAHAHA :D

And taking photos with Wolverine! WOO HOO!
Then there was my last day at work :) I'm gonna miss working there, besides the fact that I've to rush down all the time and be consistently late for work, the people there are actually very understanding and nice.. They're a fun bunch, even the aunties.. Great experience :)
And the young ones, which I can better relate to at work:
Choos :) Gotta be cooking squid ink pasta now.. Will blog about this experiment tonight..
