Read this from Eric's blog. the entry dates back 2 months ago.

" The day started rather amusingly when Herrick instructed us to meet up at Admiralty MRT at; of all timings, 11am. I dilly-dallied my time and arrived at 11.15 and was completely unsurprised to see Herrick and Herrick alone. At this kind of timing, only zo bo lan (nothing to do) people like us will be able to make it. Plus, Marina Bay only offers steamboat buffet services from about 5pm onwards. We ended up eating at KFC; just the two of us. At the counter:

(note: C = cashier, H = herrick, M = me)
C: Hello, may I take your order?
H: Yes, we'll have a buddy meal, Crispy chicken, and change the medium coleslaw to cheese fries and the two Cokes to Iced Milo and Ice Lemon Tea.
C: Right, so that'll be 11 dollars.
H: Okay, just a moment.
M (to H): Wah, the pricing so nice seh. 11 dollars on the dot.
H: Ya, no need for any complicated counting.C: (patiently waits)
H (to C): Okay. (Hands over eleven dollars)
C: Right, so that's one dollar change, here you go. Have a nice day!
M: (looks at H bemusedly)
H: (looks at M bemusedly)
M+H: (quickly hurries away to find a table to sit)
H: Here you go, fifty cents.
M: For?
H: Dividing the spoils of war.

We got a good deal =D "
couldn't agree less with eric. its rare to see people being close to their primary schoolmates. and we still are, and from the way its going, still will be. that's gotta rock. a quirky bunch.

let's see..
xin le is my number 1 supper mate. she's afraid of cats.
eric is the guy to look for when u just have to talk army stuff. he is much better as a person than 7 years ago.
eugene is the half-male half-female who's treated just like a female, and constantly getting advice to break up with his flat-chested gf.(no its not about her chest)
ann is the rabbit and boyfriend-smitten girl who talks about the weirdest things. like bras and fats, and..well u know. i've visited her house the most this year.
jun hao doesn't seem to know what he's doing in army. the things we have in common are our nintendo DS lite and a common secondary school.
carina has an active love life of sorts. hers is the only birthday party we went to this year.
ya ting is always late whenever we meet. but she makes up for it by her witticism.
hwang ching needs to grow wiser in many aspects. we constantly worry that she'll get cheated by guys. we also ponder upon why she's never attached before.
zuhara and i re-established contact while relief teaching in our primary school. she taught malay while i taught chinese, english, physical education and basically everything. nowadays, though we can't compare our teaching times, we often give each other support =)

haven't been seeing too much of the others to know stuff.

the occasional spending spree

saturday was another fine day too. we walked for an hour at least all over vivocity debating which restaurant to go to. only morons like us end up in burger king in the end. like so totally expected. then we went on a shopping spree(more like i did).

spent 30 bucks on a challenger 2 year membership, 60 bucks on a new wireless keyboard+mouse 25 on a FF VI soundtrack which i had sorta desired for but didn't know existed. a total retail therapy session. and got to know how each other's doing in the army. renny's got the least regimentation but has most work, hou teng is most slack and gets off days for no rhythm or reason(sorry for the bad pun) while i get a fair balance of work and slack in 2 sib. helped hou teng dig for clothes in FOX for half an hour and we walked out empty-handed. like so totally expected too. and i convinced them that the ubiquitous word 'SALE' was not meant at all. and we hope to go to sentosa sometime. with 33/05.

she's decked in red and a cutesy dress to drape over

alright friday was a happy day for i watched a movie with two primary school friends. 881 IS kinda distant for me, not being able to comprehend 90% of what was said(which was in hokkien). basically deficit of a real plot and kinda wandering. i just told my mum to go watch it when i got back. she'd definitely understand and like what's being sung. nevertheless it was a good date, with hwang ching being such a joke. she's such a bimbo(i'm sorry that she is). i'll never forget the fun times i had suaning her, i swear. now let's convert some of them into memoirs.

hc: hey i bought a mos burger and a drink; i didn't want the meal!
hc: and i have two packets of chilli to go along with my fries...WAIT where's my fries?! how come i don't have any!
me and yating: -__________-" didn't u just tell us u didn't want the meal, how would u have fries?

hc: hey i wanna go queue for some donuts for my bro!
*arrive at the end of a queue*
hc: wow they look good!
*20 sec delay*
hc: this queue is so long, let's forget it!
*walk out, and on reaching breadtalk...*
me: hey there's some of that kind of donuts selling there!
hc: oh ya ah. BUT there's no one queueing, let's not buy it.
me and yating: HUH?!?!

had a great chat online with our dear hc until early in the morning. covered lots of stuff, like the books and literature to read, music we listen to, views on religion. basically the kind of deep conversation i've been craving for some time.



but she's still a bimbo.
oh. but i only realised 881 stood for papaya when i got home. got called dumb by the bimbo.

this is definitely a better life.

life's okay so far.
in terms of work, i'll be the regimentation and discipline clerk. that is to say i'm in charge of charging people, and probably will become a bastard lol..
in terms of life there, its nights off everyday, report back by 11.30 pm. and we dun have stupid stuff like wake up at 6 for breakfast. u can just wake up at 7.40 and no one will even comment on it. after last parade, i'll just rush to get the bus which takes us back to woodlands. so i can even reach home by 6.05 technically.

my upper study is some ang moh guy, and colleagues include a hc guy, tj guy and another quiet one. its much more comfortable here because more ppl are from jc so we will tend to share more commonalities. the other clerk understudy is bryan who's from ac. in future it'll be just him and me, so we'll be covering each other's asses too. he'll probably become assistant chief clerk, course clerk,and other crap, while i'll be regimentation and discipline, and welfare clerk too. and sharing the registry between the two of us.

though im in brigade now it doesn't mean i cut off contact with 1 SIR people. i'll still go for lunch with them and go crapping and 'eavesdropping' here and there. then they'll give u this act-isolationist behaviour, but i'm sure its all for the fun, and people are happy that i'm out, i can see. during lunch i saw a familiar face, jeremy yeoh, 3505 guy. amazing. he's now a signaller, got posted in same day as me. i can tell we're gonna chat abit about anderson junior college stuff. we were already talking about the botched class gatherings and all already. and in our hq medical cell there's a guy called leonard. if anyone from admiralty primary remembers, he's the first head prefect. i think i embarrassed him a bit by revealing he was my head prefect a long time ago. haha.

oh well today was east coast park army half marathon. i went there to walk for 3 km and spent a little over an hour going back home which made me even more shagged. my bunk hygiene is so appalling. my nose was blocked and i kept rubbing my itchy eyes until 3 plus in the morning. the next morning some storeman joked that i should wear mittens. funny, yes but i felt really miserable. dun think i'd need to be so aggro in fighting for my rights as i did back in 1 SIR, cos the place is really okay and nothing's unreasonable. i like the atmosphere here, and probably the nights off best.

come-hither

charis:what's her full name?
herrick:stephanie ong hui min
charis:you can actually pronounce her initials
herrick:yeah sohm sounds damn stupid
herrick:HOW'S mine

it's wang2 wei1 xiong2 and liu2 xin1 ni2. 2+1+2+2+1+2=10/10 ???

charis thinks that my sis doesn't look like me, except for the come-hither look, which is defined as:
inviting or enticing, esp. in a sexually provocative manner; beckoning: a come-hither look.

the look which i'm told i always have. but seriously, charis looks like she's more provocative. i'm sure.

why i feel so accomplished.

Your new unit: Singapore Infantry Brigade, 2
Vocation: ASA(Trainee)

Alright! outta that 1 SIR hell!

3 simple steps to post out.
1. conceal and display attitude at the right times
2. actively engage in subversion.
3. come from a jc.

2 sib is my dad's unit, back in his time. now its mine. i don't suppose people will touch me as much cos they're under 2 sib. they should be giving me the respect soon. hmph.

and on the bookout book, its gotta be so cool. reason for bookout was listed as Public Holidays + OFF on Friday + POST OUT. time and date which i book in? i put 2 neat hyphens there. pure elation.

everyone's ord-ing in my unit, but i'm posting out, and it gives me almost as much joy.

haven't you pondered this curious phenomenon before? as a normal civilian/ student, you're so healthy and fit. when u enlist, u start to have lots of weird anomalies that erupt, as though they were waiting to emerge on the day of enlistment. and then you arrange for all those weekly medical appointments, and then you start plucking our your wisdom teeth bla bla bla.

we were at ocs preparing for an exercise when the previous dys3 came in. being from an 'allied' branch of course sgt toh talked to him and filled him in about our s2 branch personnel.

"s2 posted out, there's the new s2 over there.
i'm still around, but not for long. gonna quit soon.
dys2 disrupted for studies.
3sg ben disrupted for studies
3sg addison gonna clear his lots of leave and off, won't see him after next week
3sg muheng ord in a month, will be gone soon.
lcp cher wee's disrupted for studies and left already
that's herrick, the new int clerk who replaces cher wee, but he's posting out soon."

good day to u!

my new boss is luckily not the atrocious kind of people. in fact i think he's very nice. i feel he's very sincere. he felt bad that we skipped our dinner so gave us some money to buy dinner. but addison and muheng had different views to this.
addison thought that its really not necessary, as we're doing our job after all. he doesn't really owe us or have to feel bad.
but muheng thought that, well, its normal, to be expected. since we stay to do his work.
hmmm...i'm rather okay with everyone in branch. although its small, but apparently there were lots of politics too. but then again, i'm new, and everyone treats me okay. i'm not much of an ass. not like my upperstudy. when asked how people view him, this noun comes up so often 'fucker', spoken as if with a spit. interesting history there.

doesn't matter. i'm posting out soon. when and where i don't know. but i'm almost sure it will never be as bad as my current unit ever again. surely, its got to be one of the worst places for an nsf..
