285 : New Lease of Unlife

Its late no doubt. With the stale air from the crappy VRV unit blowing onto my face, i looked out of my window, and i see those graduants from ASL sheee strolling out from the faraway cookhouse, loved ones alongside.

We finally had some rain (my PC said "wah tsunami" when he saw the storm) after a few days of extreme dryness. Ok not that extreme relative to the disaster that occured in melbourne. The parade went on okay, with minor hiccups.

And with all the sediah, cheers and whatever going about. I was very occupied, not with work, but with the exciting things that are being presented in my itouch. HEROES SEASON 2. 10 episodes of blissful coolness tucked into my pathetic 8gb gadget. Hours of conversion at home last weekend to the silly mp4 format.

But its worth it.

The rest of the twainees are busy sending their blaster rifles into the armoury downstairs, and there's a couple of jedis watching their holographic news report behind my terminal.

284 : 殺害！

I would like to bring some attention to this upcoming film on the 19th March 2009. Its the type of crazy comedy that blends music and the usual japanese madness to the big screen. I've watched animation adaption at a friend's place and i'm hooked. The theme is dark with erm... vulgarities being hurled around due to the "heavy death metal" nature of the band. I'm not gonna spoil anything here about the story but all i can say its definitely gonna be NC16 at least.

Haha to quote one of the songs inside : "rape. rape. rape. rape. rape. rape" with the funny nihongo accent.

レイプっ！

I'll probably catch it on Friday night on the 20th. Anyone wanna join me i can advance book the tics.

283 : Phase 3 Ends

First off, it was worst than i expected it to be. I was steering myself to be out of the shit was in by reporting sick. Reason ? Asthma. Its real, no ciaokeng here. For the 1st time ever in my life, i was put on IV drip with the ventolin and STEROIDS. I did not inquire too much why the extreme measures by the doctor, just really got freaked out when they poke the 16mm needle into my vein.

Boy, did it hurt. To bring myself lower one more level, i squealed like a small little bunny being caught by the ears, wobbled crazily and got my pants wet a little.

No wonder the specs there smirked at me when i said i wanted to be a medic. Imagine doing this to yourself and your best buddy countless times.

That aside, i was being downgraded to being unfit for the months of training to come and i got dropped out. (YAY!)

Ok, you didn't read the yay at the end of the previous paragraph, but boy, it sure was unexpected. Medical examinations and treatments are inline for me next week, with me spending most of the time now reading and writing and drawing and watching TV while the rest of the 1.5 stripes are battling imaginery enemies (yet again...).

I'm gonna capitalise on this time and get my JLPT 3 by this year. Maybe pick up driving and keyboard among other things i want to achieve in life... Sure, my pay would drop a significant amount... but you can never buy time, and YOUTH.


P.S. AND A BIG SORRY TO MY BUDDY VICENT KOU. FOR BOTH PANG SEH-ING YOU AS MY ASL死 SECTION MATE/BED BUDDY AND MISSPELLING YOUR NAME.

282 : Natural Selection

I was on my way back from the clinic, walking along the streets of busy clementi central, simply looking at people. Well, i don't mean to stare at each and everyone, just trying to guess how each and everyone was thinking at that particular point in time.

There's an awful lot of people here who just knocked off from work having their dinner. (must be thinking whether they can keep their job or not)

WORK.

There's a bunch of kids mugging in the newly opened mos burger along the road. (sine rule cosine rule, omg)

STUDY.

And when i reached macdonalds, i see a lad roughly my age in his photosynthetic suit, most probably ordering his dinner at the counter. (book in later,omg sian)

AHMI.


I guess its the same for us. Each one of us. There's the indescribable boredom when it comes to ahmi. Regimental, wayang, i can't seem to find the right word. I won't deem it as part and parcel of life, its more like a test, a part of a system that filters out the weak and glorify the strong, just like our silly school exams.


I have my newly taken infuntry kohmander's school platoon photo right in front of me now. I'm staring at it, its staring back.

I'm looking hard at those buggers, half-assed worms that some how got through the system and now end up in the same school i did. They claim we're top 30-40%. I say we're just a rat pack clowns being played with. It is very very sad when the people around you crushes your motivation and take advantage of it to make their own lives easier.

I believe the ahmi higher ups took a pragmatic and rational approach to seperate us according to our strenghts. And the point here is, there's many things thats going on wrong at ground level which will never reach the correct ears.

Or so they advices, go with the flow. They play with you, you play with them.

Alrights no more complaining of the inevitable, less than 12 hours to book in. Gotta go do more meaningful stuff with my youth.

281 : Phase 3 Begins

13 weeks of basic tehkong madness.
8 weeks of basic kohmander shiongness.
13 MORE weeks of advance kohmander shiongess.
many more weeks of tehkong sianness.

Posted to infuntry school again, now is the advance part. Going to thailand in another 2 more months. All i can say now is, i'm not too happy with it and there's plenty of shit we need to go thru to get our <<< . I think this kind of sian-ness, only those people inside will know. Every week, its just looking forward to the short weekend, and when we get back inside the walls, your morale will dip even lower than our current economic trend. Speaking of the economy, just check the ahmi just pocketed me another healthy $700. I'm gonna save the money, and get something nice when my spending account hits 5 digits. The news on TV just reported how bad it was for the fresh graduates from taiwan and china to find jobs. And damn, i just had to spend another $10 for the application for NUS. I hope, i can be more optimistic this time round. I really don'y wanna spend that extra $10 NEXT YEAR.

C'mon c'mon 13 weeks of hell... i mean "unfun"

All for this on my uniform:

280 : Should have but didn't

Busy life.


Guan yin ma bless me.

279 : 75% Be.Slack.Lazy.Creative

*Note, today's post is totally skippable.



Ahmi has taught me many things so far. The most important lesson of them all is of course, in our terms, "suck thumb". When dealing with a situation which is being your grasp, or when shit happens, simply "suck thumb" and deal with it. No use whining and pondering and making a big fuss out of it.

And there are times, you simply gotta switch off and embrace all the shit that fate is gonna pour over you like chocolate fondue. Because, at the end of the day, the sun will still shine again tomorrow (provided we don't get killed by random meteorites first).

I'd like to to share an incident in which the chocolate fondue god had paid me a visit this week. It was yet another silly feel "good" camp, the usual 4d3n stay with mother nature. For the record its my 4th time doing it, and i still don't like it, argh. This time round instead of accompanying my slender HAR2! out, i was with a fat heavy noob tube (go google COD4 to see what i mean).

Amidst all the sudden attacks of invisible enemies, i swapped my noob tube and its refill packs with a comrade for his super duper machine gun with a CD-rom drive which fires faster than time crisis 6. I was like "AWESOME DUDE!" because i get to unleash the firestorm on my made believe enemies with my new wife.

And it was during this swap, my comrade, whom got to nervous about firing the noob tube, along with the weight of his honorable duties got too distracted, dropped one of the the parts of his new wife (my old wife). Clearly my comrade didn't proved he was bothered by the fact his zabor had lost a limb or 2.... GG

CONFUSING ? YES!

We only noticed the noob tube had her parts missing when we got sent back to the concrete jungle. Not a good sign really. We panicked, and looked and searched and looked and searched, and we panicked more. It felt kinda exciting yet in a shitily manner. My comrade and i gave each of us the GG face. Good game.

Surely, when the pimp... i mean the guy in charge of the noob tube came knocking on our head asking how come his errr... assets got damaged, i reflexly blamed it on the chocolate fondue god in which he got more confused, and became more angry. GG.

That is when, i saw a holy light slowly decent upon me, a silhouette the shape of a slightly deformed oval, with jagged edges at its side. I could almost hear the church organs playing at the background which in fact was my bowel movement in respond to this revelation. And when the light cleared, i could see, a huge golden thumb, with clean cut buffed nails, glittering in the midnight sky. It was... beautiful.

LESSON : AIYA BOBIAN JUST SUCK YOUR THUMB LA. WHAT COMES, COMES.

I had a close brush with death again as my comrade took the blame for losing the limb of MY noob tube, just recieved a great deal of scolding and a good saliva shower.
