There's only so many things army guys can look forward to.

Off days and ORD.


So today's an off day for us for the extremly irritating 1st of July day. Too many useless rehearsals, and too little shade.

Then again, when the off days come, I'm kinda at a loss, not really sure what to to do or how to waste my day away. I'm thinking of catching "the girl who leapt through time", I'm a sucker for jap anime.


Check this out. It made my hair stand and go all emo-momo, as I recall my own days there. Yeah we weren't as tech savvy then, so no such videos to show off the fantabulous times we had in 2003, but I'm sure that's all kept locked somewhere in ourselves.
But I do have pictures!

X'mas at J's.



I'm too sentimental really, and I can't stop myself from forgetting all that has passed. I mean, I don't think I should anyway. Like, nearly everyone forgets and don't treasure the past, like how much it has given to the present.

But it's just nice to smile at the times.

Till again.

So I'm not going on a trip after all.

Till again.

Home, cos I won't be on Friday, when every one's on off and poor me has to be on HQBO duty. That's like guard duty, but much simpler and boring-er.

So tomorrow's another day on parade, but then again, it's another day down to the end of this whole fiasco. It's just so Singapore to have a "so-and-so" day to commemorate some day that isn't really all that important. Even if it is, the effort for that day is absurdly wasteful-ly over utilised.

Like useless filmings when rehearsals end up better that the actual filming timing, and rehearsals for stuff that use random people who aren't the actual people receiving the prize to waste even more time.

Efficient, real efficient.


Lunch is at 12, dinner is at 3pm. So if I do grow a lil fatter, maybe that's the only good thing that come out of this.


Anyway my driving test is coming up, like 5th of july. Got a bad feeling about it, but let's just pray that I follow the suit of nearly all my friends who passed the first time.


Till again.

Dear girl,

I may not know you now, but someday we will,
And with you my heart you'll fill.
But please remember that all I am is just a boy,
One who can't really be separated with his toys.

I may not say the nicest things always,
But I would tell the truth to you anyway.
Neither would I know the answers to all questions,
Though I know I would learn them with you in life's lessons.

At times I may just be too blunt with words which is quite misleading,
And I really hope that you can remember and be forgiving.
For all I am is only a boy who learns from falls and tries to stand tall,
But really, underneath I may be nothing at all.

We'll sit together on sidewalks and fields,
To gaze and stars and I'll wonder what you'll feel.
I'll let you lie on my shoulder if you're tired,
I'll try to listen to all your problems while keeping very quiet.

I'll try to remember your favourite food and colour,
Though I may only remember for just an hour.
I'll try to be the friend you never had,
Yet still the choice you'll never regret.

All I need from you is just company and to hold my hand,
Support, trust, and maybe even understand my passion for my band.
I hope when we do meet I would not blush,
Cos I think, or rather know that you will make my heart rush.

So with all said and that I've written,
Maybe there's a chance that with me you'll be smitten.
And once we've met, and introduced our names,
The journey's started, and our lives would never be the same.

Now here I end this poem of mine,
Hoping that you'll not think its another lousy rhyme.
Before we meet, on a day with sun or rain
I'll dream of you my dear girl,
Till again.

Been on a re-reading of my older posts spree these days, with whatever time I have with my com. Yes, again.

Well, can't help that I'm sentimental, and I like to look back on those days and just smile. Can't always be looking forward all the while can we? Sometimes I think we might just need a lil reminder of how we came to today(no, I'm not talking about the birds and the bees).


Seriously, [1st of july] day is a bitch to do rehearsals for.

Thankfully the weather was forgiving for the first rehearsal, but I'm telling you, there's too much uncertainty and wasting of time. But just like all things that are official, and "important", there's too much talk from the higher powers and too little action from them, or at least too much deliberation, which ends up with fools at the bottom like us suffering.


Blargh.

I hope the trip pulls through. Maybe more tomorrow.


Till again.

Yesterday can't seem further than tomorrow.


Really, the days are flying past, the months(and moths..story later), the years! Where have they gone?

I used to hate time. Time's just a constraint, liability, restriction, benchmark, limit, gauge, all that. Time stopped me from being young. Time reminded me that I'm old. Time is evil I swear, cos time is unforgiving. Once a mistake made, time doesn't give you the "undo" option. Time just goes on.

Time passes so fast when you're doing things you love, yet crawl like your fingernails growing when you're under torture. I think it's not relative, it's a conspiracy.

Evil evil, and yet no one seem to be able to stop it. The only consolation about time that it heals all wounds, and people forgot bad things after time has passed.


I was reading my archives, again yes, and I had to say I love myself during my JC days. The nonsense I could think of to write lenghty posts about! Now I hardly do so, cos I'm too cautious of the people who're reading this, and that I'd offend them. I wasn't like that last time. I'd say whatever I felt like, and people didn't get me that I was talking about them anyway. Haha, maybe they still wouldn't.


Maybe I'll just blame my forced nation obligation for this, cos it's like damn convenient to do so, and cos alot of couples are breaking up once the obligation started. Yeah I'm bitter, I know that.


I can't WAIT for July. Overseas, if it pulls through, and my feared driving tests. Everyone is passing first time, the stress, inevitable. I wanna pass too, and I think I'm too kiddy looking for my own good, no one, even the tester is gonna take me seriously. I'm gonna put on a suit or something.

Back to camp I go, boredom/hell resumes.


Till again.

Potter Puppet Pals in "Potions Class"

Potter Puppet Pals in "The Mysterious Ticking Noise"

Potter Puppet Pals in Wizard Angst

The Yule Ball #1 Potter Puppet Pals Musical!!!

That's me giving my speech. Too much on the script, I think.

Didn't really take alot of photos that night, partly cos somehow my cam suddenly went low-batt on me, so the majority of the pics were in Juling's cam. I didn't take alot of photos with other people too, cos I was rushing back to camp, thus missed like a gazillion photo opportunities with alot of people. But still I enjoyed the night.

I told someone once, that when I'm out of a relationship, I'd get very worried, cos I'm afraid no one else would love me for who I am. But you can't blame me for that can you? It's not a low self-esteem thing really, but when you're as scrawny and puny like I am, untalented or the likes, it gets a little worrying.

But what the hell for now.

The time of our lives.

Till again.

Sick. Again.

I'm sick, with fever and vomiting, body ache and giddy.

How many times can you fall sick in a month anyway?!?!?

It's almost stupid.

Slept for a gazillion hours, and I still feel sleepy, but I just don't wanna keep on sleeping, and yes I feel Damn bad, cos the section, especially Andy has to go down on parade.

So really sorry guys. By the way, it sucks to queue to see the bloody doctor for more than an hour, especially when you have a fever of 38degrees and it doesn't help that the air-conditioning feels like the Antarctic, even with 3 layers of clothing.

Oh yeah, by the way, had band dinner on monday night. Even though the food was only so-so, I thought it was well planned, esp the events. I hope my speech was audible despite my mumblings, and yeah, everyone looked fantastic that night.

So do send me the photos someway or another, I'm nearly always online, unless I'm giddy like now, so off to the bed now..

Till again.

Ok it's not my fault that I'm online for one whole day and there's nothing to do, no blogs to read, no movies to watch, no games to play.


So people, update your blogs damnit!

Or at least, write interesting long posts with load of pictures.

Argh. I'm that bored.

Oh yes, had the marimba perf yesternight. It was... completed. Blunders yes, but it was fun like always.


So thanks to all who came that night, i.e. Zhenghong, Chung Yew, Geraldine, Michelle and Yanqing. And I thought we were a fantastic bunch, i.e. Gerald Tan, Benny, Zhong Wei, Zhen Hua, Wee Kiat, Pauline and Babara too.

Pictures soon yes, but please don't laugh when you see me in that ridiculous oversized get-up.


Change of Guards tomorrow, the excitement's wearing off really. But we'll still make it a good show. Promise.


Till again.
