And in a city...

My Two Cents are worth in Pounds

Hello everyone! I know the regularity of my post are now becoming lesser and lesser. Sorry if you do enjoy reading my blog cause that'll be something less you'd be able to look forward to ...haha being bhb here. Well i think probably cause know i'm beginning to stay in more and more. I mean i really don't see a point in going home to reach home so late, then wake up at the crack of dawn to report to work. Grrr.. doesn't sound logical even for me. Besides theres a Wii in the bunk, its not ours but the owner is nice enough to let us use it... how very thoughtful. I'll try to blog at least once a week so that my blog won't start growing mould like the last time i was addicted to maple. Actually its starting to grow some pretty awful Photobucket images on the top... ewww.

This post is gonna be about my thoughts for the month cause as you i'm pretty intellectual so i think pretty much about everything. Actually most of the stuff are just plan randomness but i think you should read it, cause my two cents, are worth in pounds.

D&D
Well at least we're finally starting on our rehearsals. I know practically all of us do not wan to do thing dinner and dance performace. And we've been going over the peroformance choices for at least two months, i'm glad that we've been able to settle on something that most people would be comfortable with. Though we may not be the most pysc-ed up group hoping to bag the prize, we're still working hard on it. I'm really relieved that the performers from batch 80 & 81 are able to come together and throw ideas to finally get something that's gonna be hopefully, spectacular. Thanks to biwei and sinchin for being so supportive even though i know very well you two don't want to be in this performance. Thank you very much to fhairil also for helping all of us with figuring out the music. Hopefully this will all work out and we will enjoy ourselves.... KATS!

Oh!
Omg i'm so glad that Girl's Generation finally put out their 2nd full length studio album! Yay and a usual their songs suit me just fine and i enjoy listening to their new hit OH! on repeated mode. Thanks to yilin who is a even BIGGER snsd fan than me, she told me exactly when the album will be out and i also had sinchin remind on too. Favourite songs? Day by Day which i think is an OST of Beethoven Virus, like the chillax latin vibe of that song. Talk to me is somewhat similar. And of course OH OH OH~ And i'm so glad that they put Geee & Genie in their album as well which makes its even more fantastic!

CNY Shopping
Had to do CNY shopping earlier this year cause next week i'm simply too busy with my COG! and preperations for Maris Stella concert. Yep, after the consultation from fashionista Ryhn and fashionis-blah alrik. I decided smart casual wear for the entirety of the CNY visitings. Bought 3 shirts and 2 pairs of jeans and still looking out for good deals. I decided to buy more pastel & bright coloured shades for my shirts cause i guess thats what lacking in my wardrobe. Yes some of my others frens are about having far more drastic makeovers, so i decided to have my own little one! Very happy with my steal from tommy hilfiger denim! Shirt for $83... yay!

Blackberry!
After a revelating dream that i had a month ago. I've decided that i want a blackberry badly! Yes like REAL badly can. Not an over-consumed apple iphone and not a china iphone - htc. I want a taste of the sweet berry even if its not gonna make any sense. I decided to try to get a second hand bb 8800 but its really damn hard cause it a very very old model so its gonna be hard to get it. But its still the best non camera phone of its and time up till now. I have tot of getting the curve 8250 but its a camera phone which means i might *gulp get 7 extras if i'm not carful. And usually i'm not the most alert of people.
~On a side note, i recieved an apple of another sort, but the apple was far too sweet =s ... i like though

Losing weight
I need to lose weight like badly. My body has a bad delay reaction where only a few weeks after i binge, then i gain weight. So i would have the impression that i'm still fine on the slim track then BOOM! My weighing scale reads a number that is even higher than my IQ level. So i need to start exercising now to becoming fit enough its stay slim through the chinese new year season. Imagine all those chinese new year goodies, how can anyone resist it. So its time to run run run! Jiayou Jiayou i want my 66 back!

The 200th Post would be one about one of the most important days of the year. Well maybe for me at least cause today is 17th January which is one day after MY BIRTHDAY.I dunno what izit about birthdays but i alwasy try to make someone's birthday special for them. I don feel its very much to ask for so i just do it. But yet when people do things for you on your birthday, whether it's a birthday card, presents, a nice cake, sms or even a short message on facebook.... the feeling is pure magic. So to all those people out there who did .... i would like to say

"Merci Beaucoup!"

Thank you very much to you people out there who remembered my birthday, i really appreciate it very much.

On friday, a very cute card was given, one of the many reason was that it was wrote " For a Baby Girl's 1st Birthday" ok.... but still

Thank you to James, Shaoming, Timothy & Jacob

In the late afternoon, Sinchin and I were surpised by a very nice strawberry shortcake by my very own batch 80. Even though they couldn't see it but i was already flushing red , my face felt rather hot ... so i guess thank you to batch 80! You are the best batch of bandmates any bimbo could hav ever asked for.

Thank you to Biwei, Sinchin, Johan, Anthony, Eng Loong, Zhichao, Coleman, Jared, Qin Jie, Fadli, John & Nicholas.N

Another cute card was presented by the band a batch 80 peeps which made me laugh... actually it was quite funny!

Thank You to Eng Loong, Anthony, Fadly, Johan, Zhichao, Nicholas.N & Benjamin.L

But the most funny thing i recieved that day has got to be by Skinny Band B peeps. Once i opend the poorly wrapped newspaper, i just stoned there for like 2 mins then i started to laugh.. Biwei said it wasn't tt funny but i still think it was... OMG sinchin has such immpecable taste. Well for one thing it's BRANDED alrite =p

Thank You very much! to Sinchin, Biwei, John & Fhairil, you really made my day.

And then to the rest of the random people who wished me happy birthday .

Thank You to Luke, Kelvin, Weishu, Nelson, LyeHuat, Nicholas.W, Bingjian, HongSheng, Alrik, Ryhn, Aron, Dick, KhengKia, Jason, Darren, Henry, Yaofeng, Wee Chong, ChanLun, David, Haofeng, Jonathan.L & Jonathan.B.

Saturday recieved quite a few smses from my friends some of which are thoughtfully written while some made me laugh, Still all are very heart-warming nevertheless.

Thank You to Nina, Jared, Melissa, EngLoong, Johan, XiuHao, Jiffsen, Benjamin.L, Hong Chow, Biwei, Joyce, Jeffery, Inez, Jiayun, Polly, Andrea, Darren, Sin Chin, & Jasrin .

Thank You to Zheng Cheng, Justin.T ChenYi, Johan, Andrew.L , Jeffery, Joachim, Wenxiang, Xiuhao, Shiliang, WeiJie, Jade, Ryhn, Yuhuai.C, Conrad, James, Jais, Joonmeng, DanHui, Sujing, Nelson, Andrew.T, Yimin, Alicia, Benjamin.Y, Yuhuai.S, WeiXiang, Terrance, Edwin, Haofeng, Dahlia, Justin.O, Kaihui, Benedict, Sarah, Hazmi, Ignatius, Devon, ZhouYang, Fredy & SongHua

Hope that we'll stay as the best of friends and i'm sure i will enjoy the present you guys have given me (cause i chose it my myself)

Thank YOU very very much to Ryhn, Alrik, Darren, Dick, Xiuhao & Aron

Thanks to all your wishes i really appreicate the fact that each and everyone of you are my friends. Thanks a million! You really made my day =D. Though one thing i couldn't understand was why everyone was greeting me with, " Hey Bitch" or "Ah Girl Girl" or " BIMBO!" or like " Slut!". Haha do realy have such an impression on you guys?

PS I hope i didn't miss out on anyone's names but if i do, sorry but i can't thank you enough either!

But the list goes on! Belated Wishes are defintely don to be missed cause as whoever always says .... better than never!

Thank You to Michelle, Jonathan.B, Jonathan.L, Peiling

Monday i was surprised by some of the stay-inners with a delish blackforest cake. Wah that one i totally didn't expect cause i thought they switch-ed off the lights cause they wanted to sleep. So i really thought they were just gonna sing me a birthday song. I was like " Wait for me to finish my wii game first then you all sing can?!". When i turned around i was taken aback by the two lovely candles sitting on the cake. Omg i'm so happy lor!

Thank You to Timothy, Reuben & ShaoMing for the lovely cake and also....

Thank You to Kahsiong, Luke, Nelson, Sinchin and some of the batch 81 people which i forgot their names... for that lovely rendition of the Birthday Song!

Today the seniors brought me to .... SUSHI TEI! For a birthday treat, ok i think i over ordered a little so i'm so sorry that i had taken out of your pockets and i promise i'd remember all of your birthdays! Thanks i had fun today, you guys are awesome seniors!

Thank You to Wei Lung, James, Weishu, Wilson, Timothym, LyeHuat, ShaoMing, WenXiang & Reuben!

And also to the people who attended Suite 20! Thanks alot to Yimin and Ali who spent so much effort and time to plan this nice hotel stay which i enjoyed thoroughly!

Thanks to Yilin, Nina and Haofeng for the lovely present

Thank You to David, Joel, HongChow, Yimin, Ali, Nina, Yilin, Haofeng, ZhouYang & Ali's friends for coming!

Happy 2010 Everyone! Last year was not a very good year for me so i hope this year would be a much better year! I love January cause its the time of the year where new beginnings are possible. New hopes, new dreams. Everything just seems possible and there izin't the time you won't feel like trying harder. Being a January Baby is a pretty awesome thing too. I really like being a january baby, dunno why but january babies just seem to grow being the nicest people to hang around. They are quicky and funny, sociable but not over-bearing. Not talking about myself only haha but yes i like being a january baby.

Still this post izin't about me but its to say

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINCHIN!

Haha small ass picture of us 三姐妹! ( Inevitably the birthday card in this photo does not belong to sinchin but it plays the part yea!)

Yes sin to the chin chin to the sin as the band a folks call you! Have a very happy birthday! Even though i know you don't like to make your birthday a big hoohaa, i believe everyone's birthday is very important and they should be able to feel extra special on that said day.

Thanks for being such a friend in SAF bands, as biwei always say, you are there to compensate for our over-bitchyness and over-bearing nonsense. Even though you are an entire year younger than me, it always seems that you are looking out for me more =p. So thanks alot to our 慢三拍小妹!

Once again, Happy New Year!

Happy Christmas everyone. Since the photos are not coming in i've decided to put Project Sweet Escape to a standstill. Actually loads of stuff happened during my block leave but i shall have to write it down on another day before i totally forget about it. Just came back from a overnight mahjong session @ jackson's place. Boy, what a way to celebrate a christmas night. Got a mildly drunk and won $28! Yay! I guess booze and mahjong DO mix, makes you luckier =D

Finally before the malaysia trip i just made it in time to finish all of the christmas cards. It was really at the eleventh hour lor so i hurriedly pack my stuff and left the country. With the cards quietly falling into people mailboxes, friends smsed me notes of thanks but what i would really like to say was to THANK YOU.

This year wasn't the best for me. My loved one left me, my A levels were bad. Still friends were everywhere with me along the way. Guiding me on what courses to choose and so on. So i really thank all of you tonnes and tonnes. I love you all! ( In a fren fren way =D)

Talked to a few friends and i know i haven't been the best of one yet. I know i can be quite a terrible friend cause i'm a very very IGNORANT person and sometime i just not sensitive enough at that point of time to understand what my friends are thinking. Sometimes i have no choice but to desert one fren for another under dire circumstances but i want you guys to know that you all are really really dear to my heart. Especially to my Marist Friends.

So i do other little stuff to make them happy. Sending them Christmas cards is one of them. Maybe helping out in planning a gathering? I dunno what else i should do =s.

So happy christmas to all my friends. I really enjoy company with every single one of you. I'm a very easy to please person! I love all of you =D.

So here are some choice sms i recieved yesterday : thanks thanks to everyone of them

Sinchin : Reminder: Christmas, the season of giving, a day where joy is
shared. However, rmb nt to lose ur head in the fun andgiv urself away :) Merry Christmas ( I know what he's driving at =P)

Inez : Merry christmas my favourite sexy divaaa!

Jonathan: Hey, just read the card you sent me. Its really sweet and i'm
really touched. Thanks yongdi and have a merry merry christmas too.
Cheers! ( Awww so sweet!)

Sinchin: Okok. Muacks to u too. Hav a merry night (After i promised him i
won't get drunk on christmas night)

Nigel: Hello! Wanted to use flowery language, but I decided to spread the
yultide joy the traditional way: MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Ryhn: Merry X'mas to all my coolest frens! May the liquor pour on e
alcoholics, vouchers fly to the shopaholics, discounts jump at the foodaholics
=))))))

Darren: Omg, you admitted,bitch. Yes yes, thanks for being such a wonderful friend i can ever ask for too, and the xmas cars you never fail to snd! Super nice of you ohkay. And i hope you enjoy your xmas to! MERRY XMAS! Gotta see you soon for the new year to come! :D (really really sweet!)

Biwei: Sc sms all very funny. What don lose yourself. You go sex meh. Haha ( Always the bitch at any occasion ;D)

Nina: BONGDIBOO MERRY XMAS BACK AT YOU (: LOVE YOU LONG TIME SISTER ( Sister in da hood greeting :D)

Timothy: Hello my beautiful daughter! Merry merry christmas and a blessed new year! Love mummy!

Hong Sheng: Thanks i had recieved the x'mas card. Merry x'mas. Can find

THE MADCAP ADVENTURES OF YONGDI & FRIENDS IN A PLACE THAT'S TRULY ASIA!

Hello guys! My block leave has finally arrived but it'll all seem to happen so so fast! It already wednesday which means i only have around 3 days before i have to leave for malaysia then come back for work again. Haha sighs, trying to make the fullest out of the remaining days yet i don't want to go out too much cause i wanna rest and relax on my bed yea.

Yes as the title explained, this is a post about my impromptu trip to johor~ it was really really spontaneous seriously. I only toked to timothy about it on sat and we were settled to head to johor on monday. Throw in a even more on fifi and we're ready set to go! (I only asked fif on sunday evening and he readily agreed!)

Monday work up bright and early to head to kranji to meet them and then its off we go to malaysia!

Going through the custom happy me!

And we finally reached ... not too long the most 30 mins!

Fifi me and timothy ready to chiong food and shopping!

Breakfast no.2 at those typical indian food places. Had my mee goreng and its actually not bad at all..... look at the clean plate!

We then headed to city square where i saw F.O.S! eyes started to water in joy again when we chionged in to look for good deals. In the end i bought a 30rm tee which i kinda liked. Cheap buy mah!

We then headed to Reject Shop ( yea we kept making a beeline for the thrift store cause we are poor struggling musicians)

Rumbled through reject shop and was like utterly disappointed that there wasn't any stuff that was a good bargain. And those that have some decency wasn't in my size. All super big ! Yes i'm too small for the shirts *smiles oddly to self. Timothy bought some tees from reject shop though . (que ding* Tim's buy from Reject Store #1)

Next from city square we headed to a hear-say mall, Jusco Terbau City! Couldn't pronounce the name for nuts till fifi corrected me! It was actually a mega mall in the middle of nowhere!

Dunno what kind so stupid pose is that ( not trying to ask for a fag)

Rustic malaysian view of rusty signboards

And we're finally at Jusco megamall!

Happy are we!

The mall is DAMN HUGE can! It's those kind of malls that are in KL, authentic to big brands which i enjoy to shop at. The stuff are slightly cheaper than singapore's but but its still too expensive! Bought boxer's with tim at the WH store.... mine in rad!

Saw a reject store again so me and tim to take a look while fifi went for a fag. I was telling myself that i HAVE to find something from this bargains but to my disappointment nothing in my size or style again. Tim got a ecko jacket from this reject store at a 40rm steal

(que *ding Tim's buy from Reject Store #2!)

The photo is too small but the security guard in this mall has those fugly berets with the tiny feather duster on it. Like james'

Settled lunch at the mall and after looking at many CHEAP restaurants finally settled for this sizzling stonegrill.

This restaurant had this cute jungle setting! so cute!

Hungry me awaiting my food. I ordered a steak at 24.90 rm ! C'est ne pas cher!

Tim ordered mutton and fifi ordered chicken! All comes with fries and mixed vege ( which ironically only included corn and no other vegs -_-")

Sorry was too hungry that i forgot to ask for a photo. Thats left of my steak... the fatty part is shiok! Basically its a raw steak on what they said was a volcanic slab of rock heated to 400 degrees. So you can enjoy the steak from rare..... to medium..... to well-done!..... to burnt =D

After shopping around the mall for a while .... I dragged the guys to the supermarket. Cause i love to visit the supermarket! Rows and rows of grocery makes my eyes sparkle! Anyways we went past the seafood section and there were like flies in the fishes.... damn gross

After that we went out to look for another mall. Fifi went to call his friends to ask around but the connection was bad so we didn't get any suggestions. So we decided to ask the friendly cab driver for some clue. He wanted us to go to some place called ANGSANA. Tim wanted to wing it and just go so off we went to whereever angsana was... at rm25 taxi! Argh

Here we are at Angsana... my expression basically is a summary of what i feel about the place.

What can i say..... it a VERY MALAYSIA kind of mall. Very little stalls that are of singapore style . In the end we still found a shop that sold nice nice clothes! Bout tees at 2 for 30rm! Not bad quality! C'est ne par cher!

Found ANOTHER reject store and i was ready to go chiong alrdy! Went through rows and Rows and ROWS of clothes and i still didn't find anything! D=

In the end, Timothy found his print shirt to wear for a party in this thrift store. It's actually quite fugly, can fight with james one...

(que * ding Tim's buys from Reject Store #3)

We then headed to macdonalds for tea. They already started having the prosperity meal that somes custom to Singapore's CNY.... I ordered the curly fries i like alot. Fifi had this amazing;y delicious chicken porridge! very very nice and salty! SAVOURY!

Stupid Sign.

Next we totally went to Danga Bay for a bit of salty fresh sea air

On the cab fifi sat into front and started to have this fake conversation with the cab driver on how hes from KL visiting jb and we're both from singapore visiting him which we all were friends from college in Canada. What a tall tale! As tall as jacob!

While me and timmy took stupid photos likes off..

4 and 5 i couldn't be bothered to post.

Tim trying to make out yongdi's lupcheong lips.....FUCK YOU

And we finally reached danga bay.... had this little street market at the corner

Fifi totally bought this 10rm Ray Ban sunnies

The sun began to set which drew a beautiful scenery on the seaside casting splashes of oranges and red hue to the sky

Me and fifi with the sun setting sky~

Went down to the seaside for more photos but dunno what kind of slutty pose fifi is up to

Group photo.... 3

Silly bimbo jump shot

Silly macik jump shot... fifi does this little squeal when he jumps! cute.

Silly fat jump shot.... Belly Flop...pftt

The tent behind was a circus! Like a real circus! I was so astounded i was like "OMG IT'S A FUCKING CIRCUS" and two horny minds started to giggle.

Carousel! A real double level carousel at the local amusement park!

Totally wasted 10rm on this silly rollercoaster/hauntedhouse ride... fif and i were laughing like crazy in this ride cause it's so damn stupid.

Fifi with Ray Ban sunnies... more like Ray Boon.... haha

This has got to be the nicest shot in the album.... sighs..

Tim and fifi at the yatch yard

Don't mind us, look at the pretty golden ball behind us

Doing stupid poses again

This one's even worse... trying to look as if they were in a cold country

So we walked around Danga Bay looking at the breath-taking sunset and stomachs decided to star grumbling. Wanted to look for seafood dinner and we actually saw a really huge signboard like a mile away

Decided to walk towards the signboard that remsembled like a cockroach and a giant coachroach. As we approached the signboard it was actually a prawn and a lobster.

Follow the neon signboard to the left.... a gauche... and found ourselves at a giant seafood restuarant... with a room full of live seafood, valet parking, waitress at the doorstep.

Having around 100rm to go around between us three.... we knew we couldn't afford it.

Tried to find a cab when we saw a car with a light on top and tried to flag for it shouting teksi teksi........ It was actually a police car.

We finally found our cab and went back to city square mall!

Settled for secret recepie instead cause it was much cheaper than seafood!

Me and tim ordered tomyum kung and look how GINORMOUS our prawn is... it really fucking huge!

Enjoy my two giant prawns with much delish..... yes i know i look extremely tak glam using my bare hands to eat... but wad evs.

After dinner, timothy that huge glutton decided he needed a prosperity burger meal so we went to macs to settle him that.

At around 10 we finally got tired enough to head back to home sweet singapore home!

Tired faces... i know i always flip my eyes abit of white when i sleep

Back at kranji mrt station

Full and happy with our impromtu trip... it was really loads of damn good fun!

Hello! I'm so sorry that i haven't got the time to blog this 2 week cause i've been extremely busy so here i am again to updtae my dysfunctional blog. Yes i know the skin has expired but i can't find the time to go shop for skins so just take it as an absract yea?

This past week has been very very busy! But i had so much fun whether i'm out with friends or in band. Haha maybe i one of those rare few that actually find some job satisfaction in national service.... or maybe i'm just easily contented. I think i am, because i found myself forgetting all the annoying stuff that happened along the way ..... like real easy. ~totally

Friday

Got the chance to play for the ASLC POP cause i was attached into band A. Actually i was damn excited to go cause i get to meet alot of my friend who when into sispec and are finally graduating. And also i my platoon mates who are graduating from this batch. When i reached pasir labar, immediately zoomed out to find all of sct frens. Manage to find some of them anyway. Jon, Dick, Edwin. I was so excited to meet jon cause finally after all both of us have suffered in bmtc... and den jon in aslc... (obviously he suffered like WAY more than me) we both finished out courses. Jon is like my buddy for everything in bmtc. PT, route marching, drill group whatever.

Let's just leave as that the parade was FAR more interesting than when i did the previous one with my own band.

Me with 3SGT Edwin, BMTC Commander (Lucky shit)

Moi et 3SGT Dick, 1st S.I.R GPMG Commander!

3SGT Jonathan! Medic Spec in Air Force 1st Squadron Search and Rescue (COOL TITLE)

Some of the leopard folks, Fehrul in 6th Div and Min in BMTC!

I was in the leader's square of whatever it was called where the newly graduated specs had their reception. I was looking for all my friends but only manage to find a few like gerald shngzhi and melvin . Found myself discreetly covering my LCP rank on both shoulders. All those 3SGT with the condescending looks on me!

Saturday

Went for CJC tune in. I seriously think i should help out my juniors more cause i know they are capable of playing great. Seriously all of them are so much more hardworking than when me and melissa were around. (like what? hiding in the classroom and playing stupid games)

Didn't really participate in the tune in games but i watched them and chatted with some of my peers and seniors. Some of which were also in SAF bands... wooo gossip.

No comments on the stupid face photos though. But it was shot by an SLR. so must put right?

After tune in i went for my usual french lesson before meeting my former section for dinner. Seniors section dinner which included Henry our SL, mel edwin and i. Jiaxin was there too cause shes our Da Sao. (Means shes our SL's gf)

Met at Raffles city which we had wraps beside the fountain. Chatted about NS, uni life and jiaxin a level results and as usual talk alot of nonsense which we euphos liked to do. Then we headed to ben & jerrys which i never knew exsisted until that day. Edwin decided to treat me to an icecream sundae =D =D. WHY?

He wanted to treat me cause i played for his spec grad on friday. =)

Ask you where can you find such GOOD friends! haha we chatted about our old band life, the australia trip, the syf days. Those were good times that i'll never forget cause .... when you're having genuine fun with ur fren, ....the feeling is unforgettable. ahhh GREAT TIMES! sounds like i'm damn old when i'm still a teen.

Sunday

Almost forgot. I had COG! Haha SUPPORT! Lucky me being the junior i had to brave the rain and play ~oh-bloody.Lovely. Tiring but the christmas feeling was in the air... i dunno why but its just orchard gives off the christmas mood wherever. So i actually enjoyed playing the 2 SPDF christmas songs.

Climb back labourously back up the istana when we started to play CHALLENGES! My trio part was coming and i practiced it a while ago so it will sound real nice and loud. But SIAN! My vaulve stuck and my eupho give a nuah sound.... so my trio was ruined.... I looked at staff and he had that pek chek face. I was so sad that i exclaimed loudly!! " AIYA MY VAULVE STUCK" But staff still came and knock my head.

At night went to to dinner with biwei, sc coleman, russell and joshua. Finally had some pyjm time with biwei and sc. Happy!

Monday - Wednesday!

Monday to Wednesday was entirely made up to serve the recruits pop in tekong. I literally spent my waking hours on parade. After i was done with it, i was so freakin tan and sunbrunt. But actually i like the way i look when i was tan. Dunno whether it was psycological but i just look skinnier and fitter. Kind of liked the healthy glow man.

Monday was the worse. The morning session we had 5 rehearsals... FIVE just the morning. It really killed me man. Luckily peiling gimme a good massage haha.... she's good. And i had a exchange with engseng for a backrub also. Sweet deal! But engseng wasn't as good as peiling, made me a little ticklish. Peiling alos did that press hand massage that jon used to do to me during bmtc .... made me damn relax. Luckily the afternoon session only required TWO rehearsals so in the end we did SEVEN parades dammit!

Tuesday and wednesday parades were alrite. But i had to do the parade alone without justin cause he had a little accident. Well i guess i have to get use to it cause he's gonna ORD soon. Must blow even louder than before now. BLOW WITH ALL MY MIGHT. luckily i had some positive feedback that i can actually be heard on parade now. YAY!

Between parades we just did alot of childish nonsense like naming each other after characters from the 7pm channel 8 Show.

I was the Dajie cause i am loud mouth and very easy malu myself

Biwei is Erjie cause of his jie pi (cleaniness freak)

SC was xiaomei cause he in chinese - slow 3 steps

Shaoming was our lao dou cause of his frugal-ness

Timothy was our mummy cause he got chenliping size

James was our ahma.... actually for no apparent reason

Oh and staff like totally treated us to canteen food. Between the cheers of joy and the ~Obladi Oblada, mei tou fa mei tou fa! We had loads of rotijohn and waffles.

At night went out with some of the seniors for dinner with SC. So we went for chicken rice. They like orders 2 chickens. LIKE TWO WHOLE CHICKENS with the heads tucked nicely at the front. With sc being vegetarian we only had 6 people complete such a feat. I mean i never had so much chicken in one decent meal. I didn't know my seniors ate THAT much but they did. After that we even went for an after-meal frap. What de...

Thursday!

Totally unexpected-ly fun! Biwei like totally fell sick (yea right) So left me john sc and fifi to brave the day together.

Massive fun i tell you! It was like a gazillion times for fun than our previous RnR at bukit timah hill. We had rugdby and dragged each other into the sea! Splash water like little kids and all. I found back my love for beach holidays which i frequent when i was like sec 1/2 times when my body was still relatively hot. Next holiday - Redang anyone? (Not including the HK trip tt one is a MUST!)

TOUCH Rugdby! Brass vs Wood-cussion! Guess who won

Of course Wood-cussion. But the reason why we lost wasn't the fact that i was in the brass team and i have no ball sense (which is only HALF true!).... it was cause their had like uber atheletic people can! Like lyehuat and joachim daniel weishu and like....~~james .... wenxiang~~

Got ambush into the water while attempting to play volleyball. Woo see-through!

I have to put this down. I'M SO STRONG CAN CAN PUT A GREEN COW ON MY BACK!!

When i went back to shore wanted to tan with shaoming. When to put the 3.90rm tan lotion that james bought but it had that awful carrot smell. Then james tim and jacob kept disturbing me and after a while the sun went out =( Guess someone hates me and wants me to look like a multi-tone freak

After the trip we went to vivo city for lunch. Went around vivo city to shop you know... actually there are some folks in my band which i figure could make decent shopping buddies. You know half of their taste are actually not bad .... quite similar to mine. And futher more i love watching people spend money. It makes me happy to see new stuff being bought. And shopping with paris hilton makes me have the chance to enjoy INDIRECT RETAIL THERAPHY! wee! Doesn't matter how long it takes, as long as you buy something.... ! Made everyone follow me to desigual to find prints which i didn't buy in the end. And also made lyehuat and james follow me to body shop which we intended to get lots of stuff.... moisturser, bronzer, facial wash. In the end i only got my cocoabutter lip balm.

Made songhua fetch me home so thanks alot. Had a good chat with him when he only realised who i was in cj like an hour ago when i showed him my 11b fatface. But who am i to blame. It took me an entire day to realise that the "Blake" who tagged on my blog was acutually him. I didn't know i could link to his blog by clicking on the word "Webbie".

Friday!

Had another mahjong session with alicia hc and zy! woohoo tee29! Actually won $15 in the first round cause i had like 7 duzi twice in a row! But i clear tray in second round! So lost $15 in nett

BAH! But alicia had as stay for dinner and i can confirm her Sushi can cook better than my previous maid like a gazzilion and one times. So thanks alot for the good old home cook food.

Saturday!

Yesterday was the first day i could actually find time to relax and catch my ugly betty when timothy kept trying to be a spoiler. Between the piano and french lessons, i actually found time to do loads of stuff. On first trying to start writing my christmas cards. Atually was suppose to sing overnight K with the tee 29 peeps but it got cancelled. And i don wanna go rebel again.

Sunday!

Went out with MSSB folks. Hahah i haven said for a very long time cause usually the outing involves our entire clique RAY + MSSB . But today alrik and ryhn couldn't make it so it was Xiuhao, Darren, Aron, Dick and Jason. Made them go to sushi teh cause i haven got fix of rainbow roll for like wad seemed a century. Paragon n had like sales everywhere. SALES SOLDES! Makes my eyes water in joy like mad. Banana republic tee were only like $30. We saw this ralph lauren tee that says lifeguards. $69. Wanted to get for his birthday which was in may. But called him to double confirm but he didn't reply. Don't blame us alrik.

Headed down to 313 for my virgin trip. Crowded like mad, all the shops are the same. Uniqlo was HUGE but filled with aunties and uncles of all sizes. So bah left within half an hour.

We went to jason's new house after that! OMG freakin hell the house is real NEAT can! The elevator goes straight up to jason house. Heard of those before but never actually went into one.

Went for a tour in the house and it was really damn nice. Jason and his 2 other bros were all from band so we knew their family pretty well.

Jason had the room with the toilet

Justin had the room with the balcony

James had the room with nothing.

WTF
Two times marist of the year (pri & sec) gets a room with nothing. If i had it my way james would have gotten the junior master. But who am i to say, i'm not the one with the rich private elevator condo. Neither am i the one with the huge stash of pirated dvds which had all the lastest movies straight from indonesia.

So we settled for american pie 7! Haha funny shit. At the same time we also did what we always fo when we had a computer in front of us. FB stalk other people's albums then proceed to criticise all their photos. Damn bitch right.

So thats the end of my extremly long and busy week. As i said it was tiring but still it was fun. REAL fun i guess cause in the blink of an eye my fun week was gone. Oh wells i have Block Leave to look forward to! And the malaysia trip!

I 'm hoping to be more relaxed this block leave cause i have been out and about for far too long. Hopefully not too many activities lined up for me. Cause not only have i got like 40 -50 chritmas cards to post. I also need to brush up my french for the test the coming saturday. AND workout a bit cause mr.flab is making a come back. Don't wanna look like a fat tart in my photos in malaysia.

I have this warm fuzzy feeling about this week's passing. It actually feels kind of good cause i think i've been going out more, meeting people that i haven met in a long long time. The feeling of having lots of great friends surrounding you everyday is such a great sensation. Can you say orgasmic?

Monday, finally Ryhn is back in the sunny shore of singapore, we immediately called out for a little gathering at the god-forsaken liang court. Whats even better is the fact that i could leave slightly earlier so i hurriedly went to meet out with Alrik and Ryhn at PS. We went to central to have our much missed ramen. Didn't taste as good as it used to but i still happily slurped up my bowl of goodness. We then headed for abit of shopping before spontaneously decided to catch the happy hours and go get a drink. Instead we ended up in a little restaurant and had rosti and ribs for dinner. Sat there and chatted, gossiped, made a din. Haha just like old times.

Tuesday and Wednesday i spent most of my waking hours at another sunny shore called Tekong, for the auditions to round up a batch 82. Most of the time i was just chatting around with the people and looking at the people having their auditions. Oh yea and we played freakin lots of STRESS! me james and wilson. We just kept playing this stupid card game until i went semi-crazy! When we went back to bunk the following night we were still crazily playing we screamed so much until james and i had a freakin sore throat. I don't know what actually happpend but i have been kinda of klutz in tekong. I always do, that island brings out the most bimbotic in me i swear. Last time in bmtc i'm always doing the most stupid of thing haha, tts why ann alwasy say i spoil market.... not in a good way =p.

Thusday in the day i spent most of the time in bed in bunk cause it was FREAKIN HOT outside and i didn't wanna do anything that would raise my temperature to a new high. One of the seniors suggested i should shower cause i water was refreshingly warm, suana like. I was like GREAT finally a day without cold water. Guess what, the water is FREAKIN BOILING. ok not to tt extent, half boiling. My skin was getting scalded i swear. Its as if i turned the water to maximum temperature and proceeded to continuously burn my skin red. I felt so hot and bothered after what was supposed to be a "refreshing" shower. uggh.

Thursday night went out to rebel with alrik and ryhn again. That was one of the reason i wanted to get alot of rest cause i knew iw as gonna burn out in the most tak glam way ever. Still we braved into rebel and danced out guts out. I didn't enjoy of of rebel but instead found alot of fun in the electro themed zirca. Haha everyone there is mroe high leh, there is mroe space on the dance floor and i could really swing it up! Ryhn was insane at zirca, he was all over the place. Still he wanted to go rebel more cause they had more mainstream music i guess. My legs were uber sore after we called it a night! Really felt like i just ran a very long distance.

Friday woke up still very tired but went down to alicia house to play mahjong with hc and zhouyang. Haven seen alicia and zhouyang for the longest time? Almost a year already. Still i had a great time playing mahjong with them even though i lost freakin lots of money, i had fun catching up with them. We then headed down to *yawns clarke quay again to meet the rest of out T29 fist 3 months peeps. We went to the river side near zouk and opened 3 bottles of booze. Omg reminds of the the first 3 months times when we stayed over at yimin's house and totally made a fool of ourselves. But this time was like 100x worse. I was so so drunk i couln't walk straight,i couldn't tink straight, i couldn't see straight, I was so drunk i particularly remeber running across a road and falling flat on my face. We then settled back in a circle and just chatted under the stars. Not much that i can actually remeber but i got a flush of the feeling of great times we had in the first 3 months class. The weekend outings, cycling, mid week gossip club haha! Omg tt were fun times and i really hope my first three month class would meet up soon again. Everything while zhouyang was puking his guts at the background. He seriously puked alot, he puked till morn and still continue puking. How the hell is someone able to puke tt much i dunno. I had to carry him abit to the the taxi while trying not to reach out to smell my fingers every 7 seconds. Still i had to discreetly do so several times i just felt very dirty... sorry!

Saturday i went back to cj to help out my juniors for theire tune in nxt week. Didn't really help much in terms of like music. Just toked alot of nonsense with joan, steven and the new jr. Joan say i very bitchy haha..... am i? No pls not. We're so gonna have one of our crazy section outings soon. Pig-outs and crazy boliao presents galore! Decided to skip french today though zhenjie trying ton convince me to go. Still i pon lessons wasted alots of money and went hom to bed cause i was too tired to do anything else. Feel really guilty about it so yep you all can go ahead and scold me and i will just stand at the corner with my head tilted low.

Sunday! Went out with a few of my section mates, the ones that chiong with me during the bad times and celebrated with me during the good times! During field camp when i was terribly depressed they were the ones that helped me through. Well so we met... caught up on our military life cause all of us ended up in different units. Seemed like everyone actually had it quite easy. Haha except edwin, infantry spec. While the rest slowly left, jon and i went to shop ard orchard. While broke me just causually looked at nice nice clothes. Jon as usual, having the same purchasing power as east timor's entire military budget. He decided after much time to buy a pair of jeans at bread and butter. Yes bread and butter where all the those expensive cult brands. Yes shopping with him is very depressing for broke people like me. As usual we just walked around and caught up with our lives, both as interesting.

So heres abit about my warm fuzzy week. I haven met with my pyjm biwei and sinchin cause we were too busy on seperate deployments. Nevermind better like tt we can more to tok about when we meet tmr. Yes band drills ughh!
