2 weeks..

I'M BACK!!! for 2 days

It's great to be home!!

But damn!! I'm sick!! Dunno how I managed to go through 2 weeks of hell in Tekong! Made some new friends in my platoon and especially my section mates. It's gonna be another 2 and a 1/2 months of blood, sweat and tears together with them... and I hope the bond grows stronger after each day of getting tekan-ed together.

Oh.. and hopefully nothing's wrong with my shin and left elbow. Sustained injuries to these areas during my 2 weeks of confinement in Tekong. I've already missed out on 6 days of training thanks to a virus and the 2 injuries. But all in all... It's great to be home. Well, 2 days is better than none! Especially when you get punished for stupid reasons and they make you do guard duties on weekends. That SUCKS!

Hope to be back safely next week for the next entry!
Aiming to be Top Shot in my section if not my platoon!


Over and out.

It's time..

Had a "farewell" party organised by Brandon Sim last friday, and we agreed to have it at my house. Bao, Meifang, Jolene, Jasmine, YiRui, Ivan & Brandon were the only ones that managed to turn up, and it was GREAT to see them again before my enlistment into NS.
Thanks N'DeViLz!

Oh.. those days..

Man.. miss those days when I could just sit back and chill with all my bros back in Perth. All those badminton "adventures"! All those parties and good times. Sigh. Damn.. I can feel the Perth happiness slowly ebbing away as the days past. Not good. Not good at all.

Getting pretty bored of watching "Lost" episodes almost everyday. Devoured season 1 and 2 in a matter of days. Not bad huh? Now I've got to be patient fer season 3 to hit the shelves... but by then.. I'd most probably be stuck in the "wonderful" world of National Service. Sounds like fun. Yeah right...

Ok.. guess I'll be on an extremely LONG hiatus. We'll see when the next post comes..
Prob 4 months later..
Sheesh..
Oh boy.. here we go!

300!

WOOHOO! I managed to sneak in to catch the movie "300"! IT WAS AWESOME!! Felt this great satisfaction with all that cutting and slicing. Based on the epic graphic novel by Frank Miller, "300" retells the ancient Battle of Thermopylae in which King Leonidas and 300 Spartans fought to the death against Xerxes and his massive Persian army. Sounds cool eh?
The movie is rated M18 over here in Singapore.. which is totally ridiculous. Besides violence, MORE violence and.. ahem.. nude scenes, there was nothing else that made it M18. Sigh.. oh well.. YOU should watch it! It's definitely on my favourite movies list and it could well be a classic. One of the coolest movies yet.. amazing!
Here are a few stills from the movie.


It is cool.






You'll enjoy this.
