I'm finally home! Damn it feels so good.
Booked out at around 3pm this afternoon and paid my final respect to a cousin of mine who had passed away on Sunday night. Within a span of 3 months, I've lost two family members. My cousin was only 18. He didn't deserve this. Rest in peace, buddy.
Saw a chinese doctor after that for my knees. Had to draw out the clogged blood in the joint and do acupuncture to relieve the stress inside.
Dinner was up next. Chinese food at a Teochew restaurant. Food was pretty good. Better than my field camp ratio and canteen food for sure. Haha...
Met up with my bunkmates for some drinks after that. Spent the whole night drinking, fist guessing and doing stupid stuff - making a fool out of ourselves. But its ok, its all in the name of fun. After all, we'll be confined next week for our Live Range.
Sighs. I don't get to celebrate on either day or week of my Birthday. And to think its actually my 21st.
But what the heck. Its just another birthday like every other one. The numbers just keep adding up that's all. Haha...
Well, BMT is almost over with a mere 20 odd days to go. Let's hope I get a good posting and everything goes well.
I saw your MSN nick, I read your blog. You didn't reply my sms. Fine. I get what you mean. I've cleared all your smses from my phone and your numbers as well. There's no turning back now. All that's left is that bloody picture of you in my cupboard back in camp. And I promise you, that the first thing I do once I reach camp is to tear it up and throw it away.
Fuck. All that shit I drank is making me wanna puke.
Life goes on...
There really isn't a reason why I'm doing it. But then again, its pretty much like everything else in my life.

Thank you everyone, for tagging on my blog even when I'm not able to blog. It means alot to me. Thank you.
Here's a very sincere apology to Lyd and Glenda, I'm sorry for not being able to make it for lunch on Saturday and Games day on Sunday. So sorry. I'm having field camp on Monday and I needed to get my things. Not to mention my parents are out of town, so I have to send my sister for tuition on Sunday morning. So sorry...
As for my knees, they are not getting any better. The bright side is, I just have to hang in there for 20+ days and it'll be all over. I would be seeing a specialist after that. I just hope I can put up with the pain for a couple more days.
By the way, I need an opinion from you guys. I'm thinking of making a frame-less Hugo Boss specs, with Transition Lenses and it costs around $500. Do you think its worth it? Sorry I don't have a picture of it. But please do leave a tag. Is it too expensive?
Field camp begins Monday and ends Thursday. After that, 2 more weeks to go and its all over.
Life goes on...
What am I to you?

I've got some pals asking me how come I'm not in yet. I'm booking in only on Tuesday at 1200. Why? I don't know. Its my commanders' decision.
I had some lectures while I was in camp and a few interesting questions were raised. Notably these few questions.
(These are for guys, just swap the genders around if your a girl.)
#1. "Is this the woman you want as your wife?"
If YES, proceed. If No, you got to start thinking real hard.
#2. "Is this the woman you want as the mother of your child?"
If YES, hold onto that person. If NO, you got to give it a second thought.
Quite interestingly by the time the officer reached the 2nd questions, there weren't many hands left in the air.
Chinese New Year was pretty ok. Its starting to get real mundane. Perhaps I should bring along a partner next year? I'm sure its gonna be damn different if I do. Haha...
Printed some pictures this time around so I'm going to bring them in and paste them on my cupboard. That way, I won't miss you guys that much! :p
Life goes on...

Most guys will give the same answer when asked about how they feel about NS.
Sian.
Perhaps I'm an oddball or a misfit. But I feel otherwise. I've spent 2 weeks in the army now and till this point in time, I can safely say that I'm truly enjoying my stint in the army.
It could be that for a person like me who loves training and the outdoors, NS is like a dream land. But I feel, its more than just the physical aspect. Its the mental shelter that it provides. When your on a far away land with no links to the outside world, you become oblivious to everything else. As such, all that occupies your mind is literally what is within your vision and nothing else.
This combination has seemed to work for me. I get to train everyday, doing what I love. And I don't have to give a care as to what goes on outside. "Carefree" in a certain way I guess.
Like the saying goes, "Ignorance is Bliss". Then I guess therefore, "NS is bliss". Haha...
Life goes on...
Its strange how 2 people from 2 completely different worlds can come together as one...

Happy Chinese New Year guys! :)
Life goes on...
