6th Student Council gathering

Thanks to Widiah for arranging this gathering, because I know if it were the guys who do it, it will become half past six kind of effort. =x

We went to Breeks’ Cafe @ Marina Sq, and we rotted there for close to 2 hours. We had a lot of catching up to do. And of cause we NSF had our topics to talk, and the girls in the end are starting to get interested and they joined into the discussion too. But then again, not much girls turn up and there is only our ex-female advisor and our asst. secretary present. Crap. Still, it’s a really good day. (except for burning one hole in my pocket, but it’s worth it. (= )

After that was lan games @ Game Haven with the guys, and that’s pretty much end of the day.

Oh ya, i remembered what my ex advisor asked me today in the restaurant and it’s damn funny:
“Eh Song De, do you go for facial occasionally?”
I was like what the heck, because she’s a random queen who changes topics as and when she likes and caught us off guard. I guess I’m being fairer then any other people that’s all, a gift from God. =)

Same people, different life

I’m an armour technician, but my other friends who are the same vocation are not as good as me. Some still slogging away in Sungei Gedong, some are finding ways to slack, some finding ways to chao keng so that they can be out of course, and of cause there are many more. This is what I meant by same people, different life.

People is a broad topic to talk about, because there are infinite types of people out there. But for life, in think there can be only 3 catergories.

1. Good life

Good life means there is almost nothing for your to worry. Life’s gonna be a smooth sail for you, and there isn’t much things for you to complain. Everything go well and smooth. But are those people leading good life happy? For the rich, they do not have a lot of things to worry about. Yes, money can’t buy everything in the universe, but without money you can’t do a lot of things. So i deducted that money is the Number 1 problem in the world.

A person who is rich don’t need to to worry how he is going to survive tomorrow, at least he has the money to buy food, drinks; and a shelter over his head. But he might be lonely because he hardly has any friends. (I’m not saying rich people don’t have friends, just an example)

Good life? But not happy either.

2. Happy Life

A happy life does not necessary to be wealthy. An average or low income family can lead a happy life too. Strong family bonds, a person doing a job that he loves a lot but not because of the pay, no lack of friends around him, you name it. Good life is not a criteria for leading a happy life.  I’m taking a coolie for an example. His work might be tough, and he is always thinking how he can support his family members. However, he has a really caring wife at home and obedient kids at home which perhaps, God gave it to him. He’s having a hard life, but he’s definitely happy with it.

3. Sad life

In reality, there’s no such things as sad life. The problem lies on the person. If he/she put on a long face everyday, keep on complaining on everything and how bad God is treating them and etc, his/her life will definitely be sad. I can’t really imagine a person who is having a really sad life, because the best way to end the torment is suicide. =x

It’s up to you whether which life you really want to lead. Good life is not a must, but a happy life something that is really hard to achieve.

Good life

It’s really a culture shock for me in airforce, totally different from Sungei Gedong. The buildings, the people, the working environment; it’s really nice and comfortable.

I somehow became a clerk cum technician, and the reason is damn funny. When I was a OJE at 12 FMD in Sungei Gedong, me and this guy A were under these 2 corporals, CPL A1 and CPL A2. The clerk at 92 FMD (Chong Pang Camp) were the same batch as CPL A1 and A2, and he need someone to take over his duty because he’s going to ORD soon. And so, this SGT A3 called CPL A1 and A2 (i suppose they were from the same batch) to ask who is more fark up between me and guy A. And of cause, I gotten the job so I guess the answer is pretty obvious. (whether it’s me or not, up to you to decide)

Seriously, I think God has really taken good care of me, and answered my prayers.

1. When I was Pes C in BMT, I had the thoughts of up PES-sing. But I had really good bunkmates which makes my BMT happy, so that thoughts quickly ran away. I nearly gotten the company’s best recruit, and because i failed on my part to pass my IPPT, I’m unable to get it.
2. When I was in OETI, my conduct was good so I had the chance to be posted at Airforce for the rest of my NSF life.
3. As a OJE in Sungei Gedong, although life is tough there, but I’m guided by 2 really zai Corporals which allow me  to learn a lot of things. Work is tiring there, but it’s happy because of them.
4. Being a technician in 92 FMD is slack enough, and I’ve became the clerk which meant it’s even more slack. There’s a chance for me to be promoted to Corporal First Class if i’m able to pass my IPPT and my performance is good. (Highest rank for NSF there is CFC

Thank God for these blessings, and i wish for more to come. =)

Toilet break~

I was blog hopping around and saw particular funny poster.

Take a good laugh at the poster so as long as you can, and go back to whatever you are busy with. Lol!

Back to OETI

First of all, congrats MK for getting the best trainee for Btt32 small arms! Godlike ~

Anyway, today return back to ARC to collect my posting orders. Apart from some really irritating issues, I had a really good catch up with my instructors and peers today. It was the first time that we stayed in the office for very long and talk cock with all the warrant officers, and we had a lot of advices from them. Hopefully these advices will be put to use so that my NSF life will be better. Lol!

I’m so looking forward to my new unit tomorrow, at least I do not need to top up my Ezlink with cash for MRT trips and the bus concession is more than enough for me. =)

It’s like finally..

My OJE period in 12 FMD at Gedong has finally come to an end, and fortunately I called the main branch today to ask about my posting. If i didn’t, I wouldn’t know that they haven forgotten us already.

Actually Gedong isn’t that bad to the extend that makes people feel want to leave badly. Mainly because it’s extremely far, just traveling alone  the nearest MRT station will take half an hour plus minus. . There is endless workload there, sometimes when you thought you have finish repairing this tank, another instruction will come in to repair another one. That’s why all the technicians will be shag like dog at the end of the day.

But amist all these endless work, I’m quite happy working and doing all the repair works because I’m with really nice peers which we can joke and crap during work and the basketball games that we had on every Fridays and sometimes on Wednesday mornings. All these things are something that we can keep with us till we ORD.

Happy times will eventually end, because it will become our good memories.
Friends will eventually leave each other, because it will make gatherings meaningful and happy.

~Bye Gedong

Asiasoft Game Fest 2009

I went down to ASFG 2009, and i find it so-so only. Other then a small booth with 16 computers opening different games, it is really too little to promote all the games offered.

After attending the fest today, it brings back memories of those days of chionging MMORPG games, and how much effort I’ve put into the games that i hardly touch now. Now I’m keen to continue playing, but I don’t know which one to play. Zamm

the 8 digits IC

We went back to Ayea Rajah Camp to collect our new uniforms, but to my dismay I can’t collect mine. Because some blur clerk key in an extra digit to my IC number, and upon scanning of my 11B the person said that although my name is in the list, but due to the wrong NRIC reflected in the database and i couldn’t collect mine. It’s ridiculously stupid.

Too bad, suck thumb.

Irritated

I seriously dislike f*** up people. If they create problems, I can close 2 eyes. But when the person create trouble that becomes my problem, I can’t close my eyes. Sometimes I’m sick of all the scolding and shouting, because it will definitely cause a psychological effect on the person. But sometimes people won’t get things into their brain without all these kpkb stuff, so occasional scolding works.

Bad news for me, i might not be going to air force. Up till now there is still no posting orders for me yet. Zamn, please don’t give me false hope, and don’t overwrite my initial posting please!

I want to be a….

A lot of things have been running through my mind recently, things like what I’m going to do for this 1 and a half more year in the army.

Studies

Some people around me get to early release from camp due to their part time studies, and of cause I wanted to do so too. But seriously speaking, I can’t even afford to pay for it. Although I didn’t see my friends all slogging on books the whole day, but i know studying and serving the army at the same time is very tiring. So yeah, studying is not practical for me.

Basketball

Other then gaming and chilling out on weekends, I seldom really touch the basketball and has lost touch of it. So much that I wanted to have a team to play, but finding one is not an easy task. Blame it on my early days I did not really participate a lot in the basketball world except for my consitituency competitions, I’ve beening shifting my focus somewhere else. But now I realise that I can really do nothing during my army days, why not start slowly and get back into the old me, and starting balling away.

B-boy

Not long after I’ve finish my bboying lessons, I’ve enlisted into the army. I guess everyone know the life of a recruit is really tough, and most of the time it’s physical trainings and more physical trainings, which mean 0 time for anything else. I kind of  lost touch already, perhaps only able to do some basic moves. If I were to start again, I think I’ll burn my weekends for lessons, and perhaps at esplanade for my practices and all.

Seriously, I don’t know what I’m going to do. I think I should do what my heart tells me….
