hits + misses!

I don’t know what everyone was looking at
I don’t care what everyone was laughing at
I don’t know what everyone was staring at
I think, I think that it’s me

Didn’t I tell you that I could hear you running out?
Didn’t I find you when I knew you were hiding out?
Didn’t I see you when you thought you’d never stand out?
Didn’t I find you? Didn’t I find you?

still super tired after sleeping damn long yesterday and today.. damn and the next book out is so short its like zero motivation this week leh. anw got a new long sleeve shirt liao. super uncle wan leh i think everyone is gona laugh at me!

still alive and kicking (the bucket?)

woo i can officially drive a tank now! the past week ive been going outfield for driving lessons. and afterr just 3 days of lessons was the actual test already! was quite fun but the biggest tradeoff is that we have very little sleep cos of all the servicing + maintenance we gotta do before and after returning from outfield. on the last day, we even had to wash the entire vehicle till 3am before sleeping la.

met some og friends today! haha think its the only og that still ever meets up after so long! amar was there too hahaha he's a medic somemore la basket slacker.

i still dunno if i will be allowed to book out for college day leh dammit. cos of some stupid parade in camp.

and i also havent gotten a proper shirt for college day (if i get to go). and a bday present for cococo haha! and still havent watched so many movies la - pirates, f4, think im gona miss transformers too cos next week im gona get confined. only can book out on sunday around 3pm, but gotta go back at night the same day. how gay is that!

yea havent blogged bout last week! met kevin fawn and rong to watch oceans 13 and then followed fawn to airport hahaha! and saw the POWER ON power ranger guy who kept asking us to eat cos he dun wanna be responsible if we faint. and kevin went crazy over doughnuts and booger king haha! had super late dinner at fish n co till we missed last train. took many many buses until i managed to reach potong pasir, but was raining too so no choice call mum to pick me from there lor. walao everytime i bring bag just to put umbrella, it doesnt rain. then now when i nv bring bag and umbrella, rain until like that! hehehe.

dont wanna go back to camp plss i wanna go back to school i wanna be a civilian!!

tankeeee, old changkeeeeee

Old friend, I hear you
I know just how you feel
I've been in your shoes before
I've seen your worries
And I can understand everything you're going through

My friend, I've listened
Things only can improve
You have all the time in the world
So keep on fighting
And never let them say there's anything that you can't do

I watched as you sat with a cigarette in your hand
Holding a drink in the other
Trying to drown all your pain

Old friend, you'll realize
Good things are worth the wait
Enjoy the times that you have
You'll see a new day
When darkness fades again
And the sun can rise to shine

first 2 days in school of armour! at first when i reported to the new place i was pretty excited to see yu ern, ivan and weihao's name in the same section as mine! cool leh i could have had 3 friends in the same bunk as me! but soon the instructor selected me to go for some psychomotor test cos they needed ppl to crossover to tank commander course. at first im supposed to be in armour infantry course and learning the bionix vehicle. but yeah i passed the test and crossed to TCC! haha tcc sounds like coffee eh? anw the test was just sitting in this machine to test whether u can coordinate ur 2 hands to turn the turret and aim at a target in the quickest possible time lah. and tall ppl cant be tank commanders too! hahah thats one advantage for me being short.

havent really started learning anything yet. only done a 3km orientation run so far, and lots of talks by all the big shots. and settling stores which took 4 hrs! they said they expect 80% ippt gold and all soc passes for our batch dammit! and gotta run for the army half marathon too. can expect lots of PT sessions during the next 2 weeks liao. and at the last 3 weeks of course, got taiwan training also leh sian. sept to oct lidat.

booked out on fri night tho! was supposed to be as early as 5.30 wan la. but my course warrant is damn naggy and repetitve la! talk about all the basic discipline n stuff can talk until 9pm! then by the time after area cleaning n inspection everything, book out at 10pm liao.

actually was supposed to go airport to meet fawn whos just came back! but cos of the late bookout, obviously missed her flight liao. so met her and rong at serene macs. peiyu left earlier so didnt get to meet her, but sebas came later too. haha fawn bought back some australian doughnuts too! sweeet but nice too. and sebas kept cam-whoring! and he passed me the camera upside down la so i took a pic upside down and now they all think im retarded nehneh! left just in time to catch last bus home yeah. there was only 1 person in the bus some more. listened ipod and fell asleep on the bus. haha i rmb bmt they say not allowed to put on earphone when in uniform but what the heck la. hahaha scarly suay suay kenna caught and charged sia!

hmm but today was boring day la. hope something exciting happens tmr lehhhhh anything but birdshit dropping on my head la ok! hahaha

"evacuation com- com- com- complet-- com- complete." haha wore the flasher tshirt today! and benny watched pirates with fruit loops already haha i think im the only one left in singapore who havent watch dammit. alright gotta slp now. armour tmr! 1 and half yrs more to ORD.

and yesterday night at holland was cool too! was supposed to meet at 8.30. i boarded bus 145 from toapayoh at 7.30. and i thought YAY i would be early for once. but end up i was late again. 30min late. saw rong's new helmet hair hahaha i think quite cool man! and peiyu's lobster sunburnt from kaya-king. haha kaya-king and peter pan peanut butter! and kevin brought indo chips for the girls eehheh why i dont have! sebas really doesnt look like a typical ns guy leh! cool he says now can keep longer hair. and they were telling me how terrible armour is gonna be. yes ive been posted to armour after my sispec bslc. peiyu thinks the tanks turret will keep swinging around even when the tank is idle hahaha! brought my hazelnut cookies too. i think im becoming a pro! but sebas said it smelt like tofu-shit at first hahaha. must be reverse psychology eh? at least rong said it was good, but not as gd as her cupcakes? anw we had fondue and some ice cream (i only ate melon. in fact i finished the entire scoop of melon ice cream cos nobody liked it. i dunno why) at hagen dazZzZzxZxZxzzxzZxzx ok i think im overdoing it! and everyone was so concerned about gaining 5kg after eating all the chocolate and icecream i dunno why hahaha but sebas says im still flabby omg i feel so saaaaad haha kidding! peiyu claims she got muscle sia haha but after all the ice cream it will become ARMOUR of fats hehehe! kevin best la he ran 2.4km when he reached home yesterday!! hahaha midnight run! hahaha quote peiyu "NOO GOT BENGALI IN THE BUSHES!" but i used to do midnight runs quite alot last time during jc days! haha damn i miss those times. collected my school leaving cert from kevin too. haha apparently everyones comments were quite similar! after everything, i took train home with kevin. haha had a nice chat like last time when we used to go home together from malan rd! wah ur a great buddy man! i still rmb once during one of the sch holidays i had hockey trng n u had fitness and u waited till late evening for me hehe gay but i appreciate it man. hahaha makes me feel quite bad about the "orhorrrrr caleb gonna blog about u" incident hahahahahhaha! omg this is a dam long paragraph and my eyes hurt looking the mass of words on top.
