hohoho! my blog is finally 1 year old! seemed like i have blogged for eons already though... feel like i have been having a bout of blogstipation for the past few weeks... nothing really interesting to blog about... haiz... guess it might have to do with my near 0 social life...

contemplating on moving my blog to livejournal... still exploring the features tt the website has...

read ju-zi's blog... she's been blogging pretty intensely after she got into SMU... keeps talking about uni life... haha... looks like uni is gonna be an exciting experience... and nothing short of being an expensive experience too...

been able to nua at home for the past few daes... enjoying my off... not really enjoying la... it's no fun when u spend yr civilian time alone... sux... :( i guess my friend's remark (to be exact, it's Mr S.H.E.) was rite... come into army and yr social life suffers... well, maybe it doesn't really apply to those clubbers... my social life now is like no life, esp with the girls... haven met any of my girl friends (dun misinterpret it intentionally...) for a long time liao... at the most, i get to go out with tty and bra... ah!!!!!!!!! i need a life!!!!!!!!! lol...

NDP'05: Mobile Column!!!

wonder if i'll get to drive my vehicle next year... but i guess 1 things is for sure... i'll be taking part in next year's birthdae bash... the mobile column should be going through some of the neighbourhoods i guess... just like previous years...

NDP'04: Reflections

a stunt tt dropped from the sky upon me... knew then tt many wkends will get burned and prob nv returned... but it was exciting, i mean y not? to be in the marching contingent... even if u r a regular, i dun think u'll get to be in the marching contingents for many times... it was a rare oppotunity... fortunately or unfortunately, we didn't get to be the GOH... i can still remember wat happened when i was in the GOH for my sec school tt time...

the drills and performances weren't tt gd then... still pretty much like an unpolished gem... but the weeks went past and drills became sharper, performances more colourful and co-ordinated...



i must say i have a liking for mass displays, having myself took part in some of them during my NCC daes on SAF dae... to see the individuals putting in their effort and the final result tt follows... it gives me a sense of happiness and an impulse to be part of the performance...

the choir in particular, grew from strength to strength and it was a joy watching them rehearse in the indoor stadium while we were taking our breaks...

the whole process of ndp was quite an enjoyable ride... got the chance to see 60 000+ singaporeans gathered together to celebrate our nation's birthdae and seeing the whole stadium taking on a coat of red... also got to get a glance of our nation's leaders, esp SM Lee himself and PM Goh...

managed to catch the show segment on our way back to camp... watched the TV mobile... the one thing tt i thought was pretty prominent was the bad lighting (in my opinion)... the contrast between the performers' costumes and the lighting was just unimpressive... :p

well, we were lucky enough to get to catch the fireworks while our bus was going down kallang rd... reminded me of the fireworks tt i saw at disneyland... except tt this was nicer... quite a lot of ppl were standing in the stadium's vicinity i noted... A LOT... from outside the indoor stadium to the kallang mrt station, there were ppl everywhere...



and so NDP'04 came to an end... and it's on to NDP'05!!!

b4 i actually start blogging about my reflections on this year's NDP and wat's up for next yr's, i just realised tt not much is left of my teenage years... haiz... to be exact, there's just slightly less than 5 months, or 21 wks, or 149 days, or 3568 hours, or 214 120 mins, or 12 847 200 sec b4 i hit the twenties...

72 pages, 26 070 words, 118 880 characters (no spaces), 145 454 characters (with spaces), 317 paragraphs, 2381 lines of blogging, 214 posts, 2036 visitors and continuing...

hmmm... last week things really got pretty bad... the sergeants gave us a tahan session disguised as a stand-by-bed... tempers started to flare as we tried to standardise the stuff in our cupboards... one chair got kicked real hard by this guy and it broke into a couple of pieces... heard tt one of the piece even flew out of the window... in the other bunk, the ic started to blow his top and kicked the table in anger, almost sparking off a fight with another bunkmate... haiz...

so 2 daes ago was the NDP preview... blah... can't think of any new to write about...
