What a long week it has been. Have been spending my entire week driving at Sungei Gedong Camp. Outfield everyday, sometimes till late at night. Anyways, it has been pretty alright. Did pretty well for all my tests so i guess i shouldn't have much prob getting my licence. Booked out late yesterday, but my parents were nice enough to fetch me home. =D Yup, fetched Ryan and Lieutenant Poh( Yes, the PC i saw at PS) home too, as they happen to live nearby. Haha. Anyways there's really nothing much to do at home these days. Bro's busy with the upcoming exams and parents are at work as usual. Sianz. But then again, I'm not too bothered by it. Perhaps I'm someone who needs a lot of personal space. This upcoming week would be an easier one i guess. The programme's not as packed as this week so i guess it's fine.
Oh yah, yesterday received message from junjie saying TJC did very well for PW! About 88% 'A' grades! Congrats dude! And congrats to my Alma-mater too. A great bounce back from last year's 7% 'A' grade. Fantastic. Congrats to adeline too. Got her A. Good start to the A's. Jia You!
Quite looking forward to going out with my good buddies later. =D

I'm back! Its been pretty good at MSU so far. Shan't dwell on the details too much due to confidentiality. My bunkmates are fine. Nothing special. But i still miss my buddies from Zulu Coy. Haha. Oh and i realise that all my buddies so far are from SAJC. In Zulu it was Kah Fai and now it's Jia Hao. Such coincidence.
Alright have been going out with 01 people for both weeks. Last week went PS and around Orchard area to have dinner and shop with them. Oh and i saw one of my MSU PCs at PS. Haha. Thank god he didn't recognise me. Then yesterday went to makan with Vincent and Shan at Vivo. After that managed to shop a while. Bought the new game Command and Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath. Haha. Wei Lip told me that it was out so i went to look it up. Damn cool game. Guess i will be stuck at it for quite some time. Haha. Alright then i bought the silicon casing for my ipod nano too. It's ORANGE! LoL. I also bought a book entitled " A Thousand Splendid Suns" by Khaled Hosseini. It's about poverty in Iraq and the discrimination that they face. It's fictional but I thought it would be interesting to understand other people's stand on such issues. But the most important thing is that I've really got to read more. I've got many interviews coming up. The earliest being NUS Biz School Interview on 21 April. Got to be more prepared in case they ask. Haha. I think I'm such a realist. Then perhaps I've got to prepare for the NUS and ExxonMobil Scholarships too. Interviews are such a hassle. Haha. But since i applied I've got to stick by them and go for them.
Alright looks like it's gonna be a long week ahead. Looking forward to bookouts. Time please travel faster?

I'm down to the last day of my block leave. I got my posting:
Going to SISPEC camp but not going SISPEC. Wahahaha. Not that i want anyways. I guess I'm also gonna be a tankee like Kah Fai and Tarun. Just that their tanks are much larger. -_-" Anyway I proved PC Yeo wrong. He asked me on the last night of BMT if i ever see a 7As driver, and here I am, a sort of driver. Haha. Ironic isn't it? Alright, hope that it will be a good job.
Anyways have been desperately meeting up with friends these couple of days. On friday went to Bryan's house together with PL4S4 people. Haha. Yea, quite fun. Had lots of food and rubbish talking. I always like the idea of putting yi hui, yi xiang and frankie as buddies in SISPEC. Hmm, the smell. (anyone in PL4 would know what i mean. Haha) Alright after that went down from Newton area to Parkway to meet 4E people. Had dinner with them. After that went to play pool, which i apparently sucked at (yet i still won coz adam and meiying kept getting the black ball in the wrong hole. Haha) Alright that about enough activities for that day.
Sat invited TMS ARC people to my house for dinner. Oh mind I had pizza again. Haha. Have been eating alot these days. Alright then we went video EZ get DVD to watch. Borrowed Zodiac to watch. Apparently its super long movie that has no ending. Haha. Watch till kel and ade neck pain sia. ahah. Oh yah supposed to go out with 01 people too, but too bad clash. Haha. Alright maybe another day bahz.
It has been a pretty eventful week of break. Haha. Looks like i won't have much of such breaks in the near future. Haha. Now to look forward to the next weekend...

Life's hasn't been all that exciting since POP. Alright, at least I've got more freedom. Have been playing lots of computer games. On friday went back tjc to meet Mrs Lim (VP). Haha. Asked her for a favour of writing me a letter of recommendation for scholarship. Mrs Aileen Lim also agreed to help me. So yea, really big thank you to them. =D Oh yah, I also need to thank Ms Sim for help me certify all my certificates. Haha. Made her sign like 90 times for both me and john. So that makes 180 times? Haha, it's around that figure. After that had lunch with john. Oh yah sorry yewei! Forget to ask you along to certify the certs! BUT then again, it's not my fault because john forgot too!
Sunday was alright. In the morning went to Ang Mo Kio to visit my maternal grandparents. Haven't seen them for ages. Had some talk and then went for lunch with my bro and parents at Thomson. Haha. Brings back old memories. I can fondly remembered when I was a kid, my parents used to bring me to Sentosa, Zoo and all those places pretty often. And for some reason, we always end up at this restaurant in Thomson. Haha. Guess my parents weren't exactly intrigued by the word "variety". Alright, the food was as good anyway, after not going there for at least 10 years. Anyways after that Dad fetched me to NUS open house. Met up with john, ye wei and vincent. Hmm, I realised that the open house hasn't changed a single bit since 2007. It was quite a waste of time actually. My only reason for going there is to find out if NUS Global Merit Scholarship would allow me to do a double degree. I guess it was more useful for john and yewei. The lady introducing Pharmacy was pretty good actually. She gave me quite a good understanding about the course. I was so tempted to change my course of study. But too bad, they didn't offer DD. So forget it bahz. After that because we were so truly bored there, we decided go find a place to chill out. Lol. So there we went, half way through the island to simei to slack. Settled down at Starbucks to have coffee and my blueberry muffin! Haha. Have been wanting to eat some sinful stuff ever since I POPed. After that all of us had to go home for dinner. LOL. I reserve most of my Sundays for family because I don't really spend much time with my family ever since I enlisted.
Looking forward to meeting my other groups of people that I haven't seen in quite a while! N my bunkmates!=D
P.S. Vincent! Faster POP lah!

BMT is finally over! I'm now a private! Haha. For some reason, i don't feel all that excited. Maybe I'm beginning to miss my buddies in ZULU Coy already. Every morning I wake up, the first people you see are bunkmates. But today, i woke up and the first person i saw is my maid instead. LOL. It just feels weird.
Anyway, I'm happy that I finally have the chance to meet up with friends and family. Haven't had the luxury to do much of so ever since i enlisted. Haha. Oh yes and there is university admission. I applied for NUS Chemical Engineering and Accountancy Double Degree and NTU Chemical Engineering and Economics Double Degree. Not too sure if I can cope but I feel that it's definitely worth the try. Also, applied for 2 scholarships that I really want. NUS Global Merit Scholarship and ExxonMobil Public Scholarship. Did up a lot of the paper work yesterday. Now just short of letters of recommendation, which Mrs Aileen Lim was nice enough to promise me. My only reason for applying for a scholarship is not to make my parents pay for my university education. This perhaps would give me some degree of financial independence too. Haha. No idea if I would get it, just trying my luck. Competition's stiff this year. Hope everything turns out nice and fine.
