SAF Day! And I have clerk duty =\

It's SAF day today!
Supposed to have some parade in the morning but due to the rain, we had a wet-weather ceremony xD
Then we were provided breakfast.. everyone except the OCS cadets MUAHAHA.. Somehow we just can't help laughing at them =x

And... It's HALF DAY TODAY!! Wheee....
How nice, and I have duty today -.-"

Supposedly Joshua's duty, but on monday, he swapped with me.
My off on monday, his on tuesday, and somehow I had duty on monday (i forgot! =x)
So to avoid running back at 3pm for duty, I asked Joshua to swap with me.. and his is on Wednesday.
At that point I am still unaware of SAF day and the subsequent half day =o

So yeah, I sort of traded the extra 7hrs at home for a whole afternoon and evening.
What a good trade.. And yet another empirical evidence why I shouldn't enter the business world.. I'll just be killed in an instant haha xD

RIP MJ.

Michael Jackson.
1958 - 2009.

Sad news. I loved some of his songs and definitely his slick moves. I bet his "moonwalk" will go down in the history of music and dance. No doubt about it...

You know what's the weirdest thing about humans?
We all find random reasons to hate and flame someone, but when he/she dies or leaves the world, everyone mentions only the good things about him/her.
Its wierd huh, human nature..

Hate while alive, Love after death.

Duty reflections

Few things I learnt:
1) The staff lounge sofas, though they look nice and comfy to sleep on, they are not!
the arm rest part (where your head lies on when u attempt to lie on the sofa) is inclined downwards. hence throughout my sleep, i had to make a conscious effort to tilt inwards to fight against gravity. GAH.

result == 3hrs of sleep or so in total + midnight reading of Java book == sleepy;

2)Zam is damn cute/funny when he's sleepy and half awake.
When I asked him what we gonna have for breakfast.
He said: "No breakfast. If you wanted to eat, you should have went off to the cookhouse before we opened up the building at 6.30am".
And I was about to ask "But how I leave the locked up building when you have the key and you're sleeping?", but then he fell asleep again.

result == empty stomach + silent laughter;

--------------------------------------------------

Today helped out with the navy event the whole day.
And I got a new appointment!

I am now teh "PRESENTER DIRECTOR"! Phear me!!! Rawr..
My scope:
-> Click powerpoints. HAHAHA
-> Provide smooth transitions between the changing of screens from one laptop to the other
-> Play the background music before the overseas delegate arrive and stop when they sit down

Man, its one tough job indeed. I definitely deserve such a powerful and high-ranking sounding appointment like "PRESENTER DIRECTOR". Hehe.

The lonesome night of a SAS Duty Clerk

Alright. It's my first SAS Duty Clerk duty today. First time I gonna stay in since I got posted out of Delta Wing line as a Private (PTE).

Did all the routine stuff liao, now resting, so went to the Staff Lounge to use the computer while my other partner (non-OOC), the Orderly Enlistee slacked in the Duty Room with 2 other enlistees who stayed behind (one has foot infection, cant walk home. other one accompanying. so nice of him)
Password doesn't work. What the heck.
No choice, go down to first floor and use the computers at Student's Lounge.
No lights. What the heck.
I'm like currently using a computer in PITCH DARKNESS. ALONE.
Normally I would freak out. But what the heck, its my only Internet access point -.-"

So here I am, using the computer in the DARK. I can't believe it. I can barely see the silhouette of my hand when I stretch it out (and its only because of the light from the computer screen).

Bah, enough of my current situation...
I noticed something peculiar yesterday. Apparently quite a few females, including JC classmates like Vannessa, around me have dizzy spells. I was thinking it might be because of me (lol jk), until my sister got it too. Then I had to go and fetch her from the MRT station. Ran there and killed my knees (I have knee inflammation and I haven't ran for nearly 2 mths haha), assisted her to the nearest taxi stand and helped her hobble the rest of the way home to bed to rest. Tiring sia, maybe because I slack too much for too long liao >.<

Event #1:
Dragonica Party on 27th.
E2Max@TheCathay.
3pm ~ 7pm


Event #2:
(Ex) Dota clan outing
27th.
Dinner at Chomp Chomp.
Initially supposed to be last week, but got rescheduled (till an unknown date... up till now)


Event #3:
Dragonica Movie Outing
27th. 12pm.


Event #4:
Family dinner! My mum just dropped it on me after I agreed to go for the Dragonica (DGN) movie outing. But its in the afternoon so till then it was ok.. Until these 2 Facebook notices. Aaah...

Dang 27th is such a popular date.
1) DGN movie outing
2) family dinner
3) DGN party
4) (ex) dota clan outing

Aaargh.. decisions decisions =(
I could try to manage my time and rush around, but then, some timings just clash.
And damn I wish I have a "Manta Style".

Okays, gtg prowl again. Ciao.

Edit:
I'm back! After like 10min haha..
I got the new password from the 2 other people who stayed back. Whee, now I can use the computer without being in the pitch dark room alone xD

Funniest Movie Experience. Ever.

Decided to gather at WQ's house at 4.30pm after he's free, so Justin, Sin Chin and me decided to catch a movie in the afternoon around 1~2pm before going.

Bought 3 tickets of "Hannah Montana: The Movie" for 2pm at Tampines Mall GV.
But SC was late! Gah.. So Justin and me waited and waited.. When SC came, it was 2.15pm already. Hoping that the advertisements haven't ended yet, we rushed up to the 2nd floor (Theatre 6 is 2nd floor of Tamp GV).

I was leading the trio, and I ran towards the entrance, with the number 6.
There were 2 doors, left and right.
Since we came from the left, I looked at the hall layout to locate our seats so we can get seated ASAP.
And we did, we rushed down to our seats.
Thank god the advertisements were still playing.

And it continued playing...
And playing...
And playing...
And we were like "Wah siao liao, the advertisements nowadays so long sia, 33min then finally starting".

And then the movie started...
With the title "I love you, man".

HOLY SHIT. Lol...

Ah well, we just sat through and watched it anyway. It was a good and funny show.
On the way out, we checked the hall number.
Guess what? Halls 5 and 6 are next to each other.
Hall 5 was the left entrance, Hall 6 was the right entrance.
Holy shit. I thought the hall had 2 entrances, like most other cinema halls...

No wonder we were wondering why the ticket seller said "Hannah Montana" had only the center seats for the 5th row from the front when there were like 4 blank rows behind us throughout the whole advertisement and movie screening. Lol. It was so damn funny that we laughed about it all the way to WQ's house >.<

SAS

Yup. Currently posted to SAS (SAF Advanced School) temporarily, where they train CPTs and MAJs to further up their ranks. Apparently Joshua and me got posted there at a lull period where they are no batches/classes, so its pretty slack according to them... And it is.

We only helped clean up and arrange 2 rooms today, the rest of the time was sleeping and reading of books. Lunch break is no longer 20minutes long and we even went to the library xD

Guess what's the best part. It's supposedly 8am-5pm. But today we were told to book out at 4.30pm. Lol.. And the lao jiao (experienced people) there say its common. Haha.. I think we both are going to enjoy our stay in SAS until our posting out from SAFTI MI. Lol.
