yes, yes... i haven blogged for sooooooooo long... and it's all course of my stupid internet problem... had trouble coming to my create post page... cause it the page always get hijecked by this internet optimiser thingy... anyway, been busy preparing my vehicle for Logistic Readiness Inspection (LRI) and trying to clear the SOC (ah!!!)... managed to come near to my personal best timing of 10.26 by running a 10.27... but tt's not enough!!! need to get a sub-ten timing... sianz...

going for a upgrading course in the upcoming week... should be a rather relaxed one (i hope...)... so wat happened during my absence here??? hmmm... played v little gunbound... think i sorta sick of it... giving myself a break from it... been playing pokemon gold lately... haha... kinda childish game, but it's fun... wat can i do? my com is not in the pink of health and the specifications are not good enough for me to play the games tt i wanna play...

ah!!! i want to just go straight to uni... rite here rite now... 2 1/2 yrs... no i mean 2yrs 4mths... it's still such a long way to ORD... *grumble grumble* still only a 1st year soldier now... sad...

just bought a new hp cover yesterdae... black... expected... my old hp cover's screen cracked... ya... and i dunno y it cracked in the 1st place... come to think of it... i think black dun really look tt good with my hp... hack...

met my new OC some time ago... looks like those garang, no-smile-on-the-face type... and the 1st thing tt he did was to give the SOC failures a surprise RT yesterdae...

some sidenote on Ex Wallaby: man... i drove a LOT... managed to chalk up an amazing 330.6 miles or 528.96km and 27.5 engine hours... bite into tt...

discovered tt being a consumer, we really have some good deals out there... problem is u have to find out where... been to chinatown some weeks back... there's a shop selling quality stuff at 3 for $10... souvenirs, sun glasses... quite a lot of good stuff... shop name? 3 for $10... u can't possibly miss it... quite a prominent shop sign i must say... heard from my friend tt there's this shop selling original cds at prices as low as $5+... titles include the latest hits like Stephanie... y it's so cheap? cos it's imported from china... supposed to be only for sale in china...

rain rain rain... tt's wat have been happening lately... sigh... both good and bad for me... if it's rain before the start of an activity then it's good... if not, then it's bad...

was sitting a cab home from my grandma's place yesterday... this newbie cabby's the kinda talkative one... started to rattle off on how tough it was being a taxi driver and the interesting encounters with all sorts of ppl... esp funny when i heard on the part where he told us of his gay customer... kept touching him... mao2 shou3 mao2 jiao3... distracting him from driving... poor cabby... haha...

saw fei1 chang2 tou4 shi4 yan3... were talking about these girl flag day volunteers... they had to do the flagging for 3 months, about 5-7 times a wk, ~8hrs each time... tt's some tough task... kudos to them... ah... tt's not the main point of the show... it talked about the kinda treatment they got from ungracious, no manners Singaporeans... ppl who scolded them, threw their 'donations' onto the floor expecting the volunteers to pick it up, etc etc... just disgusts and irks me to hear tt such ppl exist...

indeed... smth is strangely wrong with my internet browser... somehow some stupid irritating program has changed my home page to http://213.159.117.134/index.php... the thing is my computer is stubbornly refusing to let me change the home page back to my blog page... tt's still ok with me, but the problem is tt whenever i get to http://213.159.117.134/index.php, my com simply hangs and i have to restart my com... this means tt i can't open a new internet browser, but have to find other means to open them... one of which is thru my msn messanger --> hotmail --> intended webpage... from there, having my 1st browser, i can repeat the earlier step to get more browsers or i can press CTL + N...

this is troublesome...

arh!!! finally finished copying the stuff from my notebook onto this blog... u can start reading them from oct 26... might be posting some after-thoughts/further notes at a later time...

yo mates! got back to home sweet home 3 days ago... feels gd to be back here... guess not much has changed in my absence here... other than the new straits times interface, some new gunbound features, a new fan for my room, a surprisingly not-maxed-out inbox... think tt's about all...

was looking through friendster yesterday... discovered tt lynn got into law faculty nus... cool... managed to catch up on my friend's blog posts... ah huh... yanfang's blog seem to be in trouble... keep causing my com to have runtime C++ error... haiyoh... go fix tt problem yanfang! haha... :P

fine weather, cloud cover? not sure... can't be bothered...

back from Rockhampton Fair... a modern, single storeyed complex similar to a decent shopping centre in singapore... things are as usual, expensive... just knew tt i have yet another part-time job: money exchanger... have ben providing the needy singaporean shopaholic with Aussie notes in exchange for SG$ at varying exchange rates... had given out A$161 for S$203... quite surprised at how loosely my fellow mates are spending their bucks... all trying to finish up their Aussie bucks before landing in singapore... it's late now... 2255h... was watching tv whilst blogging... guess i'll continue writing tml... it's time to get to dreamland... *yawn*...

fine weather, can't be bothered to check the cloud cover

blogging from my motel room... have been a few daes since i blogged... tml finally going back to singapore... well and good too... cos the things here are ex and having been overseas for many a times before, i completely agree with the saying tt there's no better place to be than home... a couple of things have been bothering me lately and making this trip less enjoyable than i wish it could have been...

my groin abrasion's back, but luckily enough, it has yet spread to cause more irritation and misery... spent 50 bucks yesterday at this Rockhampton village... bought a cute koala soft toy, a shirt, dozen small koala clips and a desktop clock... think my parents are gonna nag at me for buying those stuff... but hack it... staying at this motel called A1... located at 134 Gladstone Rd, South Rockhampton... a neat place to stay in... was much better than how i thought it would turn out to be... now lazing in my room, making use of the free time before we get down to Capricornia College for lunch and to Rockhampton Fair after tt...

Rockhampton town is a self-sufficient (correct use of word?) town located on the Tropic of Capricorn and self-proclaimed beef capital of australia... cinema, shopping mall (to be exact, Rockhampton Fair), McCafes, KFCs, Subway, schools (including this Central Queensland University, countless motels)... all these can be found in the town... so the town wasn't as undeveloped as i thought it might have been...
