这个世界很奇妙。

任何事发生都有它的原因与后果。

这似乎形成了一种人类所当成理所当然的思考本能--逻辑。

就因此，当我们期望太大，自然而然的，失望会越大。

但一旦没有了期望，失望就不纯在了。

但有时偏偏出现了与逻辑互相矛盾的事件。

无论如何伤脑筋都无法理解的矛盾。

奇妙的是过了一阵子，就不想了。

这可能就是人类所瞧不起的行为--放弃。

我累了。

Another week has passed. Friday was a tough day, low-loaded the vehicles to Mandai Hill Camp. Thats where i will be going daily for 3days starting Monday, where 1 SIR is located. It's going to be a really long week though. I've got live-firing this Sunday, so my weekend's burnt! Oh damn it. I hate this. But at least next Monday's an off-in-lieu for me. Time to collect my SGC and A levels Certificate from tjc. Really looking forward to going back to tjc, the place in which I enjoyed the best 2 years of my life.

Anyways yesterday went out with john and betsy most of the afternoon. (coz Vin's stuck in camp doing guard duty!) Went to watch Wanted at GV Marina Square. Pretty nice, lots of deception and violence. LOL. Quite a good plot. Lets just say it's enjoyable. =D After that the 3 of us went to play pool because we had to wait for Cui Xia to knock off before going dinner together. Ate at Fins Seafood cafe. Haha. The food was pretty good and it wasn't that pricey. Haha. After that the of us had a good stroll down Singapore River. Had a good talk with them and yea, it's moments like this that make us reflect about life. Thanks for the company guys!

Alright here are some pictures and a video..

How to break the shell of a crab.. Lesson 1 (oh too bad its tilted.. LOL)

上个星期天对我而言是的很充实的一天。早晨到了勿洛的兵营专卖店缝了我的织服。过后就到了Orchard地铁站赴约。那天约了朋友们去吃日史料理自助餐。哇， 那餐真的吃得很饱，很有满足感。过后便与朋友们看了一场电影-You Can‘t Mess with the Zohan。 这部电影真好。内容很简单又有趣，真地笑得不亦乐乎，很过瘾！最近也看了功夫熊猫，这两部电影对我而言是今年比较好看的电影吧。过后便得赶回家，因为待会儿得到外公外婆家吃晚餐。万万没想到晚餐也是自助餐！虽然食物真的很好吃，但是在饱，吃不下。真的好久没有见到叔叔阿姨了，偶尔局在一起谈话吃饭真是个很有意义的事，很享受。

我觉得在这个电脑发达的时代，人与人的沟通时间与机会逐渐减少。由于工作忙碌，没有时间坐下来谈天说事，就因且忽略了家人，朋友，亲戚。以前当我还在上学时，我完全无法了解家人之间沟通的重要性。因为每天一回家，就能见到他们，把这一切都当成是理所当然的。但自从爷爷去过世，事实变忽然摆在我前面。我所拥有的，是家人，朋友，亲戚，或者是物质上的享受都不是永远的。活着的每一天都是神民们给予我们的一种幸福。还有，只从去当兵后，没得每天回家，所以便会想家。就因此每周末都会尽量抽出时间陪家人。这种简单的活动便对我有了很大的意义与重要性了。所以我说，人长大后，思想自然的会成熟。就是这种芝麻小事，会使人恍然大悟，忽然领悟到人生的许多道理，让人从中成长吧。

还有一件事，就是我在兵营里的一个室友已离开，因为拿到了奖学金到北京大学就读经济科，真令人羡慕！虽然自己暂时没有打算到外国就读发展的念头，但偶尔听朋友们要出国时，自己不然而然的也会想想，我不到外国就读似乎是个正确的选择。朋友们都觉得我很奇怪，A水准考试中考好又如何呢？在我国的大学就读不好吗？嗨… 真令人烦恼啊！

不知道今日如何有那么多感言想表达，也不知道为何我会用华语来表达。但我很确定的是我的华文水平似乎有下滑的迹象，真令我担忧啊！嗨… 这个星期我决定不要出门逛街玩耍，宁可在家了听听音乐，看看电视，真好！最近在看“这里发现爱”这个偶像据，真好看，很感人。看到了第12级了，越看越精彩，希望能在这星期内看完。还有，我也在重听蔡健雅的“Goodbye and Hello”专辑，都是自创歌，真得十分欣赏他的才华。 还有梁静茹的“崇拜”专辑， 是我很爱的一个专辑。他的歌声又干净又洪亮，歌声在录音社里或现场都一样的稳定，真是个人才！明天大概会去购买林宥家的“神秘嘉宾 ”与萧敬藤的同名专辑。好期待！我今日好像写了太多了，希望这星期会更棒！再见了！

[EMO] Human inter-personal relationship is such a sophisticated matter. It's hard to understand how it works. Group dynamics, friendship, relationship, kinship.. can be such a hassle. Frustration and sadness.. Happiness and delight.. Inevitable perhaps? [END oF EMO]

This week has been pretty lax. Had the energy and discipline to run 4km everyday. Kinda proud of myself. OM course ended a week earlier, and i managed to pass the test! Amazing. Anyways 7 July is the start of 1SIR mobilization. Going over to Mandai Camp soon. So i guess these 2 weeks of preparation is going to be quite tiring. Oh wells, it's about time though.

Alright, I'm out of camp again, ever so punctually on friday. Ok I'm supposed to be in today but because my platoon 1 is having an exercise today. But I haven't gone through the some training that the others have gone through, so yup, here I am at home. OM course has been pretty relaxing but really dirty and messy. Learnt a lot about my vehicle. It's probably good because the course warrant officer is damn nice. I'm serious. Haha. He's impossibly nice. Totally enjoyable.

But ONE spec just have to screw my week up. Alright he's the epitome of disgust, atrocity and brainlessness. Oh mind god. Shall not comment too much lest I'm "charged" but he just ridiculous. Just a word of advice to THAT spec. Stop acting like such a big shot and threatening your men. Unit does not equate to School. If you demand for respect from us, men, then do things that are worth our respect, and not exploit power. Threats, double-standards, exclusiveness, minding everyone's business unnecessarily and in my opinion, being totally unfit, is totally NOT the way to gain respect.

Alright, enough of wasting my blog space commenting on such an idiot. I went for the Exxon Mobil interview on Monday afternoon. 2LT Poh (who is now my PC) was nice enough to grant me off-pass despite being on course. Really appreciate it. Ok, the interview was really nerve-wrecking. It's only 2 interviewers, unlike those PSC interviews that includes more than 10 interviewers. There was one Chemical Engineer and one Manager. So there's practically no way that I could bullshit through the interview, which lasted around an hour. I was blasted with questions from almost every field I could think of. Think I did fairly well for things on environment conservation, politics, engineering. However, they questioned things on leadership which was on my testimonials ad references. That was quite tough to answer and yea I could say that I screwed that up. Following that was the prepared presentation. I was glad that they found my presentation "really good" and could see the amount of effort put into it. I really appreciate it because I really burnt my weekend for it. Thought that the interview was a decent one, but thought that I could do so much better. Hope they would select me for the next round of selection. Really want this Exxon Mobil Scholarship.

Oh this week was filled with night PT sessions. Ran almost everyday. Thanks to my bunkmates for encouraging me to keep and run. Haha. Or else I would never be discipline enough to do so. Went for Nights out on Thursday. Went to watch Kungfu Panda with my bunkmates. Haha. Yes 4 guys went to the theatre filled with kids to watch Kungfu Panda. Haha. Anyways it's a damn good movie man! It was pure lame-ness and laughter. Although it sort of have a very kiddy plot(a.k.a. brainless plot), but it's very nice if you're feeling down or sad. Highly recommend this show man! Haha

Reading the papers, there have been 2 cases for NS men deaths in just 3 days. Guess thats a huge blow to NS and someone would have to take the blame. Trainings would be reduced.(to me delight! LOL)

Hope everything turns out fine.

Yesterday went to have lunch with Vin, Shan, Bernard, Qihui and Ye Wei! Yes He's finally out from SAFTI MI. Haha. Officer to be. Ok, didn't really do much, just shopped around Bugis area before settling down at Seoul Garden to have steamboat lunch! Had a really full lunch. Had to rush home after that to do up my presentation required by Exxon Mobil. At least its nice that the topics given are pretty much what I will do in a GP exam. Haha. Alright then, that should be about all for now. Next week's the start of OM course in camp, hope it's gonna be fun. Oh and I'm now CSM driver! LOL. And wish me luck for my interview and presentation with Exxon Mobil tmr!


Me with ye wei =D

Yesterday went out to have dinner with damien, dahlia, john n vin. Haha. Alright only me n damien was punctual. The rest.. haiz.. Anyways know i know that whenever they say meet at 6, it means leave you house at 6! LOL. Okz this was what we were doing after dinner.. Zi Lian at Starbucks! Damn ridiculous and retarded.. Just look below..
