Happy New Year

Wow Wow...itz the new year.Itz arriving in 3 hours time.How time flies, a year has come to an end.

Didnt celebrate the arrival of the New Year.I never did every year.I just hate the crowd, I have never welcome crowd.Although itz pretty happening to celebrate a New Year with tons of people, great music and nice atmosphere but well itz just not my type.

I hate to squeeze with the people all over the world.Just imagine a idiot with body odour squeezing around you.Or someone who is damn oily, sweaty and with bad breath.God, im gonna die in this kinda environment.What is so bad staying at home, celebrating the New Year, sending well wishes to your friends and love ones?

Anyway, who cares.Today i met a idiot driver again.A Malaysian, i was driving along BKE.He was driving very slowly, so i signal and overtake.Soon after a overtake in change lane and come tailgating me.Well...itz okay, i speed up change lane to give way to him and again he came behind me.I was so pissed i just speed up and go.He came side by side with me, I slow down, he slow down too.Was damn pissed, i speed up and change lane from lane 1 to 3..And well he went missing.What is he thinking man??I should have just slow down and let him knock into me and pay the damages.Damn.

He is just fouling my mood on New Year eve.what the hell.Today, all my aunt and cousin are here at my place.They are gonna stay overnight.Good thing grandma just stay next door so we dont have to squeeze.We have enough bed and room to occupy everyone.Heehee..

Guys, enjoy your New Year eve.Wishing each and everyone good health and all the best in whatever you do.

Party hard but remember if you drink dont drive.The traffice police is getting hard on these especially on New Year Eve.

Cheers

Nothing much

Ehmm....nothing much happened today.Been sort of like driving around the whole day and guess what i just return home.Sleepy mind and puffy eyes

I just dont understand.Why cyclist just cant cycle on the platform??Why must they cycle on the road.Today was driving along Toa Payoh, there was this uncle cycling at the middle of the road.I have to E-brake because of him.Damn.i was pretty pissed off thou at that point of time.I was entering BKE and the road iz merge.A freaking lorry just keep driving side by side with him and expect me to give way.Damn.whats wrong with all the driver??

Next, i was driving along PIE. 2nd lane at 90km/h.A van came tailgating me and signal me to speed up.Hello, im on the 2nd line man, not the first.If you wanna overtake used your brain signal right and overtake..Dont tailgate me and think that i will give way to you.Come banging into me and i will make you pay for all the damage.

Drivers nowadays are getting impatient.Today, while driving i understand how it feels to be a driver.Even a taxi driver dont even know the right of way.I have to E-brake twice today.twice man, and i have been tailgate twice too for no reason.How can we promote safe driving when every damn driver are so selfish.

I have listed a few drivers to watch out.
1st---Taxi driver- they think they know everything just because they drive everyday.
2nd---Lorry driver-they think they vehicle is big, they can do what they want.
3rd---van driver-they think they are big shot.
4th---cyclist-they think they owe the road.
5th---branded car driver-they think their car is the best, they dont give way.others signal to change lane, this driver still purposely step on.

God.what has the world turn into??A world full of competition??what the hell...why must people only regret when accident happened??accident alwayz happened because of inconsiderate driver.I dont consider myself as a good driver but c'mon at least follow the rule and be a kind soul GIVE WAY.It only take about less then 1 mins or even less to GIVE WAY.If you think life isnt precious thatz your problem.other driver and passenger life is precious.

Guyz, having a car is for convience. you wanna speed and show off infront of other car do it somewhere else.the road in Singapore is god damn busy, and with inconsiderate driver like you guyz accident will happened.Im not gonna touch wood or whatever.IT WILL HAPPENED.

new year revolution

Itz time to set some new year revolution.

Many things have happened every year.How we planned or try to prevent it, it will still happened.Anyway, itz time to set some revolution.Something to be achieve throughout the whole of 2006.

First, we talk about work. ehmm....nothing much to expect, just that im taking men now. maybe something which i can work towards is to train them well, look after their welfare and hope none of them would do stupid things. For personal work achievement, hope that my ROA is not screwed up and my promotion will come in Nov. i cant think of anything to achieve in the next work year for my career man.never mind...

Second, Life. alot to achieve. Hope to achieve at least 3 overseas dive and complete 2 more specialty course. By june complete my wakeboarding course and by year end complete some nice cool moves. I need to save up for my car.So one of the goal is to make sure i dont spent too much money on things that i dont need. No dermit point and fine for the whole of next year too.Be a safe driver. next, hope to get my 3 star assesment done and go for 4 star sea in Malaysia. the most important thing to achieve is to stay HAPPY.

Third, hope that everyone at home is in good health and also my friends. Try to spend time with my family thou i know im going to very busy once the next mono starts in Mar..

Wow...looks like my new year revolution is just so simple.But how can i keep the spark going??it can be simple but well....sometimes itz just so diffiuclt to keep it going.When you get so stress up, fed up and tired about everything you just wanna give up.Sometimes, just hope that there is someone there who will constantly give the support and encouragment that i need.someone whom i can talk to do. =)

Guyz...have u planned what you wanna achieve next year.studies, career, family, relationship etc. spare some time to think about it before itz too late.

cheers

First day in 4 SIR

First day in 4 SIR.I reported at 0715.pretty early thou.The S1 only reached camp at about 0800hrs.Was a long way from home to Lim chu kang camp 2.

The camp was pretty old, old infrastructure.Nothing much there at all. The whole battalion is on block leave now, left over the new specialist who just graduated from the advance course and the 19 instructor posted today from SISPEC.I went there with nothing to expect, i know itz a old camp.Heard lotz of stories about the unit but still i went over with just a normal pace.No excitment or anything to look forward to.

S1 gave a brief on the unit itself.Was told that we will going to be there for only a year and we wont see the unit turn ops.So why post us there??but well..at least we change a working environment for 1 year under comissioned officer. After reporting to Bravo coy where we will be hosuing temporary.the living condition was a culture shock.In SISPEC, bunks are in better condition.Here, cupboards are spoilt, rushy and even dirty.Let alone the toilet.WOW..its like a coffeeshop toilet man.I wonder what did the last mono commanders did to the man or what the platoon sgt is doing.

After putting down our stuff, we went for a run. 3 rounds 'around' the camp withhin 14 mintues so its about 3km.The last time i ran was like months ago before the Basic course starts so guess how long have i not run??came in at about 17 minutes, 3 mintues extra from the given time.Meaning personal training must start from now before the man come in for PTP in 7 mar, have about 2.5 months to train.

Before lunch, the unit CO gave a short brief on his expectation.Nothing different from SISPEC but we have more free play.Anyway, unit should be better than school but guess what??we gotta stay in even thou from now till 7 march we have nothing much except UIP.Went for lunch at about 1300hrs and back for RSM brief.

Wow..a day full of briefing.Did a dissicuion on the training programme on UIP after the new year and submitted up to RSM.went through with him and somehow its firm up.After which, we had a 'talk cock' session with RSM.His background, expectation and how a section commander should work so on and so fore.

Ended the day with last parade at 1730.It was starting to rain so everyone is rushing as there is no shelter.Damn...when will my car come??the jounery home is just so slow.Maybe im used to driving around these few days thats why.Well...from tomorrow to next tuesday will be on leave before we go back on wednesday for the start of the 2 weeks UIP.

Overall, so far still okay, just okay only.I wont rate a pass as the standard is not up to SISPEC.In terms of cleaniness.Management so far i hvnt seen anything yet.Just that other then guard duty, COS..2nd sgt must do BOS.meaning i have to do BOS too...sigh..one more duty to cover..haha

Guys, itz not easy to be a commander.Especially a combat specialist because we are the backbone of the SAF.We must uphold our discipline and the men discipline.Like what RSM say 'We have to know our men inside out and we have to be their brother.Their commander'

4 SIR---Towards Greater Heights.

cheers

2005 happenings

Itz time, time to review what had happened throughout 2005.

First, lets start with work. went for several course these work year.Platoon sgt course, life-saving course and also the Method of instruction course. was suppose to go for the IMT fam course but was later replace as OC im too tax.what the hell.Anyway, i agree these work year im the only instructor who went for so many courses. Next, took 2 batch of Basic section leader course these work year and my company suppose to take a advance course but was later pull out as the strength of the trainee is too small, meaning miss a taiwan trip.Sigh. Nothing much really happened at work this year, not much of a problem.oh ya...im posting out to 4 SIR with effect on 27 Dec 05.a christmas present given by Mindef..So out of 10 i rate my work a 7.It can never be perfect..nothing is prefect.

Second, Lifestyle. went for a number of courses for sports.sport climbing level 1 and 2.Kayaking 1, 2 stars and 3 star personal training and also im a qualify diver. Did a number of expendition for kayaking. furtherest so far is 22km round ubin, thou itz not the furtherest but its quite a achievement.For diving, so far could only dive in Singapore, too busy with work that cant dive overseas.miss a tioman trip, was disappointed because of live firing that day. spent quite alot on my climbing,diving gear and outings with my friends.Next,went to engrave a tattoo on my right shoulder, thou the experinces is painful..well...we gotta try something new.Lastly, the most recent addition is my driving licence.Finally got my driving licence and now waiting for my very own car to arrived - Mazda 2. Everyone is doing well at home.So out of 10 i rate my life a 8.5.

Lastly, any additional stuff. something sad. one of my trainee passed away while doing run.He is just 20 these year. 2 days before he left i just saw him and had a chat with him.He is the eldest son.I feel sorry for his parents.

Anyway, not much of a problem occur during 2005. Everything somehow went quite smooth. Although at a certain point of time there is some hicups but its a minor one.We cant expect nothing to go wrong in our lifes.How much we try to prevent, things will still happened. So what we can do is just becareful. Be alert of what we are actually doing. No point blaming one another when things have happened.whats done is done there is no way we can turn back time. Even thou we can, how sure are you things wont happened again??It will still happened. so, used your brain and think before doing anything.one wrong move will ruin your plan, day, mood or even life.

I rate these year a 7.5 out of 10. what about you guys??

cheers

Hi Guys

Hi guys, how was your day man??was driving the whole day, weather is cold and the road is wet.

Met up with a friend for lunch today and went walking around United Sqaure.Havnt really been there before but well itz just a normal shopping mall. brought a new album- Fort Minor. listening to it now on my windows media.

Ehmm....i have these weird feeling today.something which i have not felt for a long time. was it because im graving for that kinda feeling again or what??well..only God knows. Although he time spent was pretty short but its the kinda feeling that you feel after that. Its really something that i have not felt for a long time. I donno if its right to feel these way or did what im not suppose to do.what do you think??thou we enjoy the time spent together i guess.

Anyway..not really gonna think much as yet. im getting absent minded lately.i cant even remember what i said yesterday man.what happened??Im suffering from headache actually today. the air con in the car was like so cold already but im still feeling hot in me.whats wrong man??Drank so much water already but still no improvement.Reach home around 1900hrs, took a quick dinner then was like lying down on my bed and doze off..woke up at 1945hrs, shower and went out to fetch my dad again.wow..driving all day long man.

well...sometimes there are just so many questions in your mind where you dont even know where to start searching for your answer.Well...as time goes by maybe i will understand better.

guys..i seriously have no idea what am i saying today.pardon me...my head is spinning.

cheers

what a day

what a day.been home the whole day doing nothing.Simply just tired.slept early last night yet woke up late.haha.Well..anyway, off day for me is just to rest thou.

Time flies, few more days and we are travelling into 2006.Have any of you make plans for the coming year??Time to start thinking about it and work towards it.

Been slacking the whole day and of course thinking of plans for the next work year.browsing through website of the Singapore Armed Forces, Singapore Police Force and also the Singapore civil defence.Understand quite abit of their job scope.well..been thinking of changing forces.Maybe want to cross over to the civil defence DART team.Thou training is tough n i have to start from the bottom but the job scope is quite a challenge as compare to the Amry.SAF trained to prepare for war where we know from now till the near future we wont have war unless they have nothing better to do to start one.Civil defence and police forces work differently.What they trained in fact appplies to our everyday lives.Making it more practical.These is what im looking for, oh yes..Army is both fun and challenging.Been able to try lots of stuff where both the other 2 services could not.But well..somehow, somewhere is different.

Anyway, im not going to think too much as yet.I have 2 more years before i reach the minimum term of enagement with the forces. Now its time to plan my next work year and improve on things that have happened this year. Not going to let history repeat again.

okay..the next few coming post will be a review of what had happened throughout 2005 and my plans for 2006.setting some goals to achieve and work towards.At the meantime, still enjoying my break.3 more days to christmas thou i still dont really understand how christmas came about.haha..well..im still going to celebrate it.

meantime, enjoy your holidays guys.Relax as much as you can before we step into the New year together.

Cheers

Last Day

Today is the last day for me in SISPEC.Pack my stuff with a half-hearted feeling.Thinking back on the days since I step into SISPEC as a trainee and now leaving as a section instructor. 2 years have denfinity fly very fast, one blink and itz gone.

Bid farewell to fellow instructors, the moment of togetherness is gone.The bonding that we built throughout our stay in Echo company.Being scolded for not doing the right things, not disciplining the trainees and slacking.Remember those days where we were training in Taiwan, the havoc we created and the fun we have training and during rest and recreation.Everything is just so different now with new instructors around.But never mind about that,whats in our heart will always remain.hooah!

Before i left, one of the instructor who is taking over me asked me not to leave and help out with the platoon.There isnt much instructor left in the company.I wanted so much to stay but well someday in your life you gotta move on.I believe he could be able to lift up the standard set so far.

So much about work.Got a good news these few days.My car loan is approved,COE drop,installment every month went cheaper.Bidding for COE was successful with just 2 bids- isnt all these good news??But something bad is that car wont be here till Feb and worse the ship have not even left Japan port yet-DAMN.when am i going to get my car??Furthermore, now my camp is so freaking far with only 1 bus service serving 3 camps there.making a total about few hundreds of people taking the transport at one time.OMG, i cant believe it.My nightmare is arriving soon.well...just have to bare with it-No choice.

Anyway, christmas is coming.Have anyone done your shopping??I dont shop for christmas as its not necessary.But i you guys wanna give me a present i dont mind. =)

Im back

Finally, im back from a 3 days 2 nights chalet.Thou we suppose to check out tomorrow morning but we decided to come home tonight as I have to work tomorrow.Anyway, had a great deal of fun while relaxing at the chalet thou we didnt step into 'wild wild wet' and 'escape theme park'..itz like i have been to 'wild wild wet' twice and 'escape' thrice.For God sake, itz damn boring. there is not much of a excitment in 'wild wild wet' compared to 'fantasy island' (if anyone remember). They are just wasting water. 'Escape'---No excitment, totally zero. Anyway, my motive there is just to relax and not patronizing the theme park.It was a nice break afterall. =)

Went for a friend's wedding lunch today.He is 23 this year.Oh man, everyone is getting married young.What are they thinking??I have yet to enjoy my life dude.Well, different people different thinking.I think differently from others too anyway. =) Congrats Asrudin. Wish you and Suliana ever lasting love.

Next on the line.Watch these programme on channel 8 just now, they were screening some charity programme.They got all these celebrities to perform some stupid stunt which will casue pain to themselves and the host will go 'Look at them, they are trying very hard.Start calling to support them'.whats in my mind at that particular minute, was to punch the host, celebrities and the organiser.Why??Because they are god damn stupid.Why do they have to go to these extend for donation.usin a low level manner to ask for donation.Fans get heartache when their idot suffer, so they will call.wtf..I find it stupid, donation is done out of own will and not by doing all this stupid programme to make one pity you and donate.I suppose alot of the donor, donate out of pity and the freaking prizes that they are awarding for donation.So lets bring back the NKF story??whats the different??everyone make a big hooah, what about this programme tonight.I just find them no brain, stupid. I dont think my parents brought me up to see me as a freaking celebrities bringing pain to myself.Boo Boo to the organizer.anyway, im not gonna let this freaking programme affect my mood.I will NEVER donate to such organizer.So much about charity.

Yes.Im going to get my car.My very own car.Paid the booking fee already.meaning from now on I have to try to cut down my expenses.anyway, i dont spend much too excpet for all the bills man.Tomorrow back to work but for halfday because i will be doing some stuff in the morning so halfday off..haha.=)

Well...have i said enough??We live once in our life.Enjoy every minute we have, we wont know when we have to leave this world!!

Just a note

Morning guyz...updating the blog early in the morning..what a joke..haha

Itz been a long break since the last Basic section leader course has ended.few more days to go and a new batch is coming in.Cant imagine i have taken 6 batch of basic and 1 batch of advance course.Meaning i have seen about 280 trainees pass out as a specialist.wow!!2 yrs of my tour in SISPEC as a instructor, went through alot and learnt alot through my peers, be it senior, junior or even my trainees.Sometimes i wonder if i trained them well to become the backbone of the Singapore Armed Forces.As a specialist, we have to uphold ourself and sort of like know everything.Questions are alwayz in my mind.

This beautiful Friday, we are going to have a family chalet.This is the time where all will get together and relax, chat and joke around. Everyone is busy throughout the year, sometimes its kinda difficult to even sit down and have meals together.Today is also a time where all cousins will get together.Except for Eugene who is stuck in camp(sigh). Lots to prepare thou and im gonna be the driver today, driving around to get stuff etc.

Received a called from Aidil this morning, he told me something rather happy and sad.How should i put it.He said that i will be posting out to 4 SIR on the 27 Dec. should i be happy??although in my heart i wanted to post out so much but well when the time comes you dont feel like going.Anyway that is the higher authority decision what can i do??new friends, new commander, new enivornment. Anyway, the camp is at Lim Chu kang, oh my god,opposite the chinese cemetry. Have to travel by bus till my car come end of next month dude.Damn.

Well...i shouldnt be bother by it.2 weeks more before i go and 3 days more before the new batch starts.I should enjoy my break and also prepared myself for the upcoming posting and challenges that im going to face.Everywhere is the same, if you are a capable specialist nothing is a obstacle.whether im going anot, i still have to work. =) so look on the brighter side man.

I will enjoy myself this few days and relax myself. Nothing to think about and worry about. Just be the usual me, joke, smile and slack..haha

Guys, at a certain time in your life you have to learn to relax and enjoy life.You wont know how beautiful life can be if you dont slow down your pace and stop worrying how you going to survive tomorrow.

Introduction

oh well...I have decided to start this blog on these fine day..

okay..To me blog is somewhere we find space to pour out our problems when you cant find someone to talk to, do reflection and share one another life.

21 yrs of my life, i have realize sth rather interesting. The term 'kiasu' used for Singaporean is indeed true. Everyone is concern about every tiny winy thing. Qualification, money, reputation and 5cs. sometimes i asked myself, what do i really want??should I also be 'kiasu' or just be myself. I found the answer, i choose to be myself. I love my carefree life now, nth to really worried about. I hate the need to rush and get stress over sth.whats the point dude..what do we gain at the end of the day??A extra piece of meat or the President will present you an award??

There is a limit to everything.Yes, I cant denied.Work hard for a better tomorrow. But how much can you gain??or should i say how much can you bring with you into your grave??Do you wanna die smiling or frowning??Die with a heart full of carefree joy or a heart full of 'kiasu stuff' that you have done??

I think differently from others. Everyone have their own life thou. We choose how we wanna run our life journey, no one can stop us. So guyz, seriously if someone is controlling your life c'mon get a life get him/her to piss off.
