Written: Saturday, July 26, 2008


And so NS life began. First day was a drag. The day went so slow and there wasn't much things to do. Got to know the people in my platoon and how things work there. The first week was a total drag. A lot of talks and lectures about SCDF. I do my usual thing when i'm in a lecture; SLEEP. Haha. Some things never change. I never expected NS to be that slack.

The first book out on Fri afternoon, i went straight home. Then went out to meet Hadi and Yasir and their friends at McD CPF building. Watched Hellboy 2. Nice movie. Went for Mindaktif training the next day till evening, then went to play soccer with the Coral gang at Bukit Purmai. Satisfying soccer. Went to Jamiyah on Sun morn. Then went to CGH with Yanah cos i want to check my blood to see if i could up PES. Then went to Bedok int to buy some stuff for camp and ended up reaching home late. Took a cab. And it was $25 when i reach BRTC. And i couldn't pay cos the cab's nets machine got problem. Luckily a pak cik came to my rescue to help me pay. Haiz. Need to pay him back if i see him again.

The second week of BRT(Basic Rescue Training) was just as slack. Cos we're pes C, we didn't do anything tiring, like running or too many push ups. Bullshit man. The food there is not bad, so a lot of eating and almost no exercise isn't good. This week there was some lessons on rescue methods using different equipments. My platoons alright i guess. Can be said we're qute a bunch of slackers. Haha.

The second book out, went straight home again, changed, then went to school for EEO camp. Slept for 1hr plus only that night. Went for bike revision on Sat noon. Went home from school at night. Jamiyah on Sun as usual, changed engine oil then went over to my close cousin's place at Kembangan. He trimmed my hair for me, and we just did some catching up over Canadian pizza. Yummy. Haha. Was late again for book in. Took the MRT till Red Hill, then dropped there and took a cab. Haiz. Wasting my money.

The third week of BRT was fast. Some lessons, light and perspireless pt and maintanence and the week was over. This week it was declared that we can't do push ups and jumping jancks and any sport that involves running. The upper management really sucks lah. Our morning pt was just walking round the track while others did push ups, sit ups and stuff, and they had to reduce our walk to just one round. Wth. They really treat us like we're gonna injure ourselves and drop dead anytime. As if we're so fragile. Sucks man. So the whole week was almost perspireless. We only perspired because the uniform is thick. That's all. On the Tues i booked out in the morn at 5.30am to head home for 2A TP. Took a cab. It was the cab ride of a life time. The driver treated the expressway like Malaysian highway. He went 140km/hr sia. Haha. And he made one crazy swerve from the right most lane into the left exit from PIE to BKE. Racer seh the driver. And with the midnight charge, it was $35. Haiz. Waste money on cab again. Changed and straight away went to CDC. Met Bear's and Fahmy's friend there. We both passed the TP. Woohoo! Went to school after that. Collected my Diploma and ate at ITAS canteen. Bumped into some friends. Then bought bubble tea before heading back to camp. And i forgot to bring my 11b(NS identification card). Wth. And the bloody provost gave me an attitude. Wth. But i enjoyed the first half of that day. Haha.

And finally. Today. Third book out. Went out to watch The Dark Knight with Dan and Luqman, both my platoon mates. Met Yanah for a while before that, and bumped into Yasir and gang. So here i am now in front of the comp. Tmr i have a workshop under Mindaktif and also have to go CDC to update my license card. Hopefully playing soccer tmr. Been deprived of soccer for too long. Heh.

Till then. 4 more weeks of BRT. Adios.

18 June - Did Mindaktif program at Kampung Glam for Dunman Sec. I was 2nd i/c. It went quite smoothly. Lepak-ed at Bussorah Street after that before heading home. Packed my stuff and got ready to go out with my parents to KL. Just the 3 of us. Haha.

19-22 June - So i was in KL, then Perak with my parents from Thurs till Sun. Stayed in a 2 star hotel. My father was pissed that the room was small when the pic in the advert makes the room look big. Haha. Wth. Went to KLCC, Petronas Tower, Petaling Street and some others i can't remember. The sky tower was like the one i went up in Shanghai last 2 years. And Petaling Street was a disappointment. To me there's nothing there except repetitive shops. Went to Perak on Sat morn. Stayed at a distant relatives house. Woke up at 2.30am to watch Holland vs Russia due to the mosquito bites. Haha didn't need an alarm clock to wake me up to watch the match. Finally headed home on Sun noon. Reached home in the evening. Packed my bag and went to Camelot for camp briefing.

23-25 June - Did GI for Paya Lebar Methodist Girls Sec 3s at Changi campsite under Camelot. It was a good camp, although my buddy was rather inactive. My group got the best campfire performance and also best group in the camp! Woohoo! Look who's the trainer lah. Haha. Went to school to slack, then went for Trekkers camp briefing in the evening.

26-28 June - Did GI for Jurong West Pri 5s at Sarimbun under Trekkers. This was another good camp, although i have one rather damn f***ed up stubborn mofo boy. Bloody hell after so many camps this was the first time i almost lost my temper with him. Just thinking of him makes me mad. Knn. But still, my group was the best group in the camp again! Woohoo! And my buddy was a noob; first time doing a camp. I'm on form man. Haha. Felt a sense of achievement for my self for getting back to back best group prize for my group. Went home after the camp.

30 June - Went to school to slack. Helped out in the ESC AGM rehearsal.

1 July - Was supposed to play badminton with Amir and co., but woke up late. Haha. Supposed to meet them at 11am, but i reached school at 1pm. Slacked in school. Helped Kak Pa with her emcee script.

2 July - Went to Engineering Studies Club Annual General Meeting (ESC AGM). Enjoyed myself. Haha. Played with the mike with Saufi before the event officially started. Took lotsa pics after the AGM.

3 July - Went to Camp Christine at night to prepare for camp the next day. Its creepy riding at Jalan Bahar at night. Heh.

4 July - Did a 1 day camp for St. Anthony Pri 4s. It was mentally tiring handling p4 kids. But i held on. It was alright in the end. Rushed home to prepare for the next day's Mindaktif event cos i was the CI (Chief Intructor); meaning i'm in charge of the program lah. Haha.

5 July - Did Mindaktif program at Kampung Glam for Beatty Sec. First time in charge of the Amazingly Shiok! program. The kids were damn un-hyper lah. But after the opening games they were much better. Then the worst had to happen; it rained. But luckily for me, it wasn't so heavy. Had to squeeze my brain juice out with my 2nd i/c to think of solutions. In the end the teacher said the program was good. Ahah! Woohoo. But of course it was far from perfect. Resolved some problems during the debrief, then, after some pit stops and decisions, we chilled at Bugis Junction Starbucks. Yanah joined.

6 July - Went to Jamiyah, then National Lib. My mother cut my hair botak before i went to play soccer at Coral Pri as usual. Heh.

7 July - And the last day before serving the nation. Spent the whole day with Yanah. Went to have breakfast at McD East Coast. Rented a bike for 2hours after that. Then dropped by Dairy Farm to collect my Inno pay. Headed to Jurong East Swimming Complex again cos she had been wanting to go there for some time. Had dinner at the Kfc/Pizza Hut there before heading home. Had Fish Ole and and personal pan pizza. Yummy. It was an enjoyable day dear. =)

So, the last week before NS, i was really stuffing myself with whatever food i've been wanting to eat. Really ate a lot. Can see the difference in size of my tummy. Haha. Gonna pack my bag after this post. Finally the time has come. I think i'm mentally prepared. We'll see. Later today. The next phase of my life begins. Till then. Adios.


We went all the way but couldn't go up the twin tower. So sad. Heh.
