Juno <3

Ever tried watching a movie that just wont load? I'm facing that exact same problem now. Totally does not help that its 12am and I only booked out at 7pm. Its been like 10 weeks, so quickly, I can hardly believe it. With only 4 and a half weeks left on the page and there's plenty to look forward to on the schedule (plenty to look forward to as in a busy schedule that will tire you out).

Oh cut the bull, I didn't come blog so I can bitch about how tiring life is- everyone can see how tiring life is, and everyone's life is tiring to them.

the EDWJ these two months have been just a little less then miraculous. Its working as though Gos Himself wrote the entries each day, and not like some dead guy wrote it years ago. Its still alive, and it it still speaks to me- practically every night.

Juno is a nice movie. No kidding- I kinda like this kind of movie. Next on the list, [PS I love you]. Todd just does not appeal to me, slashers just don't do it. Horror is still the a genre I'll shun for good. Action is decently fine_ but movies like 300 aren't really my style either. Pure comedies which are slapstick like Epic Movie are so stupid they can't be anyone's style. So I'm left with, romantic comedies and uhh well umm romantic comedies. Haha- what can I say? Thats the way I am.

Valentine's Day was spent with both my wife and mistress, the rifle and the dummy rifle. For arms drill and BAC respectively. I'm not exactly loving life in the army, but its not killing me ya know? I could totally live with it- and learn to like it. 2 years, its a stretch but heck- I'll make it somehow.

Random thoughts

Eh- looking at the picture on Dilys's blog, there's no mistaking it, her grandparent's ashes are housed in the same place as my grandma's. Just one of the many small coincidences in life. Then again, around this area, how many Christian funeral parlors are there?

I got a new phone, my current NS phone is dying (its really old, being hardy does not exempt it from sticking to a mobile phone's designed lifespan of 5 to 7 years) My new buddy is affectionately known as a W950i- check it out:


Dark purple (almost black) and orange (yum I like that combination) with a good deal of functions- its the smart phone that isn't meant to be- perfect for that poor NSF who wants to be a road warrior- the price is drastically low for what it can do simply because it lacks a camera. One might easily think, this joker is off his rocker, becoming a spendthrift overnight simply because the lunar new year is here- well I can't argue with that point of view if you want to pursue it actually. Women splurge on pretty clothes, me? I'm a sucker for gadgets. But I can't use it now, it has to charge for a number of hours, not enough before I book in so I'll only get to use her next week.

Just went to iron my no4s to prepare for booking in tomorrow. Ever wondered, why the heck do I iron something that's going to get crumpled as hell anyway- ironing the smart 4 is logical but the long 4 too? I don't know- I just had to get my hands something to do, the empty restlessness is killing me. Purposeless, senseless hands are the most dangerous, you never know what they'll find to do next.

Edit: Damn random, I feel like eating, or at least seeing what canned bread is.

> so u cant come out n spend v day with the one u like.haha
- haha
- even if i could come out, i cant spend V day with the one I like =)
> why not?
- (because she does not even know how close she is to the truth)
- (because her heart is lost to me even though she cant spend it with her love either)
-
because I haven't found her yet =)

Forgive me Father, I lied.

5 more weeks to POP, can hardly wait.

Carving Grooves

Heh. Its funny, really- life. Just like how during field camp, being there at the camp site didn't make the place seem like tekong at all. Just like how tekong does not feel like its part of Singapore at all. How can two places, exactly the same be so different. How can humans, all the same, be so divided. How can life, the same all over the planet be the same and at the same time so uneven. If only life were simpler, with our paths printed into the ground- so we'd know what to do, when and how. Then it'll be fine even if we don't understand, because at least we are certain its there.

My cousins are either in university or working. "Try out accounting" "How about economics?" "You're an arts student right?" "You have to be practical- when you grow up, you got to get a job to earn money to support yourself" Practical- dry- boring- pragmatic. I'm not even out of army yet, and I haven't even gotten my results so I don't know for sure.

I may be an idiot, but I don't think there's anything wrong with that. Far away from those who can handle the world well or can take risky gambles- my style, to the limit, beyond what other people think or believe- iron will, unbreakable resolve. A happy idiot is still a happy person, idiotic or not.

I'll fight you, with my way, on my path- Even though I now know I'll not go into OCS, there's training in rejection.

Loonar New Year

Ah gosh- I'm back. Yea, I got home pretty late yesterday. Almost a boring day, but Thank God I had plans :)

Woke up at around 11plus and slacked around at home till we left for lunch at my grandma's place at around 2pm. (Yea I know! Just how long do these adults take to prepare? sheesh) We stayed for close to 4 hours just eating and talking (they did most of the talking and eating, I? I had no idea how lunch can last 2 hours) until I had to go and meet up with Thebes Gamma. <3

Did I forget to mention I love my OG like the last 2 billion times? Pictures speak a thousand words, even though many are lost to us (contact wise) the faithful remnant are still strong as ever. Thanks Tammy for opening up her house to us, and to Shawn's father for giving me a list back- they were very nice people haha. We're crazy people :)

LoL, sleeping already?

It was quite fun, who gives a damn about the money. The new year is more about reunions and catching up, much more so then money and oranges and nonsense like that. I'm going to faint soon. bb.

What am I doing online now?

Its the lunar new year- and that means the longest break since Christmas. Its wonderful being a civilian. Each year, the meaning of every holiday seems to diminish more and more- I'm not sure either. What am I doing- I have to go get ready to leave. More later. Ciao
