Civilian life week : 1

My long awaited civilian life wasn't what i expect it to be.
Yes i do enjoy the freedom i now have, but having nothing to do can really bore someone to death ! And just as i thought things couldn't get any worst, i was wrong !
I'm stuck at home because everyone (including me) want to save some $$ before school starts and we have got no time to find a job as we ORD just few weeks before school.
Still need sometime to adjust to my new found freedom. haha !

Anyway have been job hunting for part time since last week. so far the most hopeful one is giraffe (restaurant/bar/lifestyle) the interview went smooth and guoce will be starting work at fish and co. which happen to be under the same organization as giraffe.
Feeling kinda excited about work but not exactly looking forward to it cause school starts on 17th Aug for me.
Mixture of feelings, one part of me wants to enjoy the freedom i have newly acquired but another part of me wants to do something more productive then just slacking away.
have to wait till work starts for me before i decide to slack or work since it's just a part time job !

Just for the record, I started learning guitar for about near a month now :) and i gotten a FG720S Yamaha to began with ! hahaha !

My new LOVE !

That's about all
Fly off to *~~~~*

Sweet Sweet Freedom !

ORD LOH ! i'm finally a free man after 2 years of National Service !

This past few days as a civilian really feel refreshing ! haha.
I will be missing office and the specific people within office. but worry not ! we shall meet over on the other side for Korean BBQ ! MUAHAHAHA right Karen ?

It was raining very heavy since i woke up this morning, felt quite lazy to get out of bed but the rustling sound of the wind kept me awake.

waiting for photos so that i can complete blogging about that day in sentosa :)

Feeling insecure could be my biggest weakness

I really love it !

The past few days had been a trip to realization for me. Human being would only understand the pain and agony of not cherishing someone when they eventually lose them, this is only natural as we tend to take things for granted.
I didn't realize that slowly i was changing, i used to be very understanding and thoughtful because i knew what i wanted for her which is for her to be happy, simple yet rewarding.
But slowly i became calculative, and started to measure love. It was such a fool of me to have forgotten what makes me, me !
to conclude, I've fully understand what i want for myself and for her. Happiness !

p.s. we are still together, no worries

BMT Gathering

It been almost 2 years since we enlisted into National Service, those memories from BMT(basic military training) are still as fresh as a daisy.
Though it was only 7 weeks of training together, the bond between us were much greater then any ordinary friendships. Throughout our training, we perspired, we ran, we marched, we sang , we encouraged each others and we shared joy or even cried together during our harder times.
Those harsh condition created a bond that was unbreakable, we depended on each other for support and motivation to carry on our tough training.

Met up with the guys yesterday, because Wei Jian will be ORD-ing before us as he's disrupting for further studies in Australia/Queensland.
It wasn't a easy task to gather everyone but I'm happy that my efforts was well rewarded.
Went to 15 minutes at Bugis/Lasalle for dinner and drink !

Clockwise from bottom left :
Si Rong, Gerard, Wei Wen, Myself, Wei jian and Guoce
Cheers ORD LOH !

Notice the colors on different sides ? haha.

The Cheeky ORD boy in the middle.

The 2/3 beatbox crazy boys ! excluding the Wei wen.

Up till this very day, Wei jian still bring up that story of our enlistment day ! how embarrassing -.- i will try my best to type this our word by word of what he said.

Wei jian : I still remember ah, that day of enlistment we were all feeling a little emotional and there was this guy standing right in front of me talking chirpily to kang jin. Damn irritating lo ! feel like whacking him, people feeling emotional because of NS still talk so chirpily !
don't know who ah !! *hint hint - looking at me -.-

OK !! it was me, i admit haha ! he still remember such a small thing !! well i was feeling just as nervous as everyone, that why i chose to talk to someone so that i at least have someone to talk to rather then getting emotional. right Wei jian XD hahahaha !! i know you are reading this.

Anyway we sat down and ordered our food and beer, the food was delightful and our conversations was just as good. The GOOD OLD DAYS !
After 3 good hours of chatting and food, we left the place and took some ORD photos for Wei Jian so he can take a look when he's in Australia. I KNOW YOU WILL MISS US ! good brother !

PHOTOS shall speak on my behalf !

LEOPARD COMPANY !

1 year/52 weeks/365 days

04 July !! Our 1st year anniversary
Our matching watches : )

it has been a year since we gotten together, time really passes by quickly.
recap for the past 365 days, We had fair shares of good times and bad times, happy moments and down periods. But nevertheless, Jul was always there for me when i needed her, her patient towards my temper, ego and demands were without boundaries (though, surely there must be a limit to her patience) I have been rather childish and unreasonable occasionally, but she will always stay calm and handle the situation whom others would just gave up. I thank her from the very depth of my heart for taking care of such a silly big boy like me. : )

Thank you Juliana ! AKA DR YEE AKA HONEY and AKA many others which i cannot name them here : )

Thanks for staying by my side : )

more of our 3 days ritual XD hahaha !

-Day 1-

Our very first 3-D movie - Ice Age 3-D

Jul's Camera pounch trying to share some limelight with our 3-D glasses

The show wasn't as bad as i thought it would be, haha ! but the 3-D doesn't make any difference except for the ticket price. Well it looks more like a 2-D animation despite the "3-D" effects.
If are thinking of watching this movie, i would suggest you watch it during the night cause you won't want to hear children talking/screaming while watching the show!!

Jul with her new hat (trying to act like a Japanese, hate to admit she does look quite like a Japanese in some photos and when she don't talk :X haha !) *don't kill me !

-day 2-

Went out with jul to get her long awaited guitar !! gosh she really tempts me into using my DSLR saving to get myself a guitar !!
it's a pity i didn't take any photos of her guitar, so i decided to steal one from her blog instead XD hahahah !

Her Yamaha APX 500 ! what a beauty !

So that pretty much sums up this post. and about the 3 day ritual thingy shall keep it a secret : )

p.s. Organizing an outing is a huge headache ! 6 different schedule and 1 single gathering.

p.p.s. Actions shall speak on my behalf ! Change for the better !
