We went over to K H Camp last Thursday for recee. However, I still not sure exactly which area patch of ground we will be using. Anyway, went over to their office and bunks to take a look. All slacking sial! hahaa...Their life now not bad, as compared to last time. We will be back on the 27th.
Last Friday ECP run. 15 KM run. This time, I managed to run the first 6KM before I stop for a break. The 6KM is comfortable, just that my left knee joint seems to be in pain, therefore got to stop for a while. In the end, managed to finish it but then most of the time walking, and the joint is really in pain. I went home and took the painkiller pills. I hope I can recover fast to train for AHM.
Went back office after the run to finish those admin stuff. Waited for that bus 171 for 30 mins! Damn inefficient. I managed to finish the result computation, but some things still yet to confirm, got to wait till Monday to re-confirm the finalised result. Thanks Quan Hao for helping me with some of the result computation.
Did guard yesterday,and after so long, it's the 3 of us again!! Yesterday's guard was alright, especially when you did with someone you know and it's G3! Nothing much to elaborate on guard, peaceful night. After guard, reach home today at around 11am. I watched TV a while before taking a nap till 3 plus. Wasted another weekend, don't know what to do now. Boring Sunday afternoon.
In 3 days' time, I am gonna pass the baton to Quan Hao. Mixed feelings.
Booking in in few hours' time.

Boring week again. Went driving lesson very early in the morning again, then rest at home. Went for a jog just now, realise my left knee still weak. Counting down to the end of admin spec. Not sure if the worst is over or yet to come, but it's gonna end soon.
Read newspaper and mention about fake degree. What's happening to all these private university? Imagine you spend few yrs taking this degree, go out to work, and find out that it's fake? What to do? Spend another few yrs study all over again, spend large amount of money and get a real stuff? Bu then how old already?
RIP Michael Jackson. I do love some of your songs.
Month of June, a lot of people are born in this month, especially the time in AI as trainees, exactly a yr ago at this week, can still rmb how much fun we had. Hope can all meet up soon. Same goes to BMT-mate too. Hope you guys are doing well.

First time in the office blogging. Now awaiting the rest to come back office.
Last weekend try to run, realised that I can't run due to the pain at my left knee. This is due to the long dist run I had 3 weeks ago. Not sure if I need more medical attention. I wish to take part in AHM. Hopefully I can recover ASAP and train up.

Adidas Sundown Marathon!! OMG! My very first marathon till date. Have been wanting to join marathon, but lack the motivation. This year, with the accompany of MTW colleague, I finish took up this challenge.
300509 @ 2230h, meet sirong and wilson at pasir ris mrt station, and proceed to take the shuttle bus. Upon alighting, we quickly change into the running attire, and meet up the rest to proceed to the baggage area. We reach the starting point at 2345h, do warm-up and standby for the race. At 0000h, the horn sounded. Most of them started with slow pace, causing rather 'human jam' at the back. We were soon split. Upon reaching the 1KM point, I was quite happy, but still got 41 KM more.
Someone told me that running the first 20KM without is quite Okay task for most of the people, I was kind of worry as my training for this marathon is limited and inconsistant. But I maganed to clear the first 20KM.
Here are the point where I wanted to stop:
21KM, 23KM, 25KM, 30KM.
After passing 30KM, I was having the thoughts of clearing 42KM without stopping, since it's 12 KM more, but really not easy. In the end, I sense that my legs are close to cramping, therefore i stopped at 35KM, walking a while and continue. I make a second stop at 36KM, as I stop, a lady was trying to motivating me. I was rather touched at that point of time. I continue after feeling better. For the last 7 to 8 KM, I was running like quite improperly (shin start to feel tight) in order to prevent the calfs from cramping. Here comes the 40KM mark, I pass through, hoping to finish it ASAP. However, upon making a left turn, both of my legs cramp. I was feeling both of the calfs having cramps for the first time. It feel sucks to cramp at this time with just 2 more KM to go. I seated on the gound for a few minutes, waiting for the cramp to go off.
When it gets better, I quickly get up and continue. The last 2 KM seems quite long. I keep running uncomfortably. When entering the last part near the bridge, I hear those volunteers were shouting, " Finishing soon, come on!". The lady in front of me ask how long more, they reply 1KM more. Immediately, she stopped and walked. After hearing that, I really curse and swear in my heart, thinking it only left with 200m. Anyway, I carry on running till I saw the first sensor. I tried to dash as fast as I can, also making sure that I don't cramp at this important point when everyone is looking at you. In the end, I cross the finishing point.
Timing still not confirm yet. But I was really very happy at that moment, as I only aim to finish the race rather than meeting timing. I got what I want, the finisher tee shirt and the medel.
Still waiting for the website to upload the result.

Yesterday was Dragon Boat Festival. Didn't managed to get glutinous rice dumplings. Suddenly got the urge for it just now. I asked mum if she had saved some for me, she said yes and heat it up for me. Didn't expect to finish up 2 and a half of it at this hour, half more to go later on. It's the one of the wonderful time of the year. Dragon Boat Festival, not forgetting Dragon Boat race. Few years back at this time will be training like hell, but now, was merely watching others training hard. It June race again, 800m race! omg! The distance sucks but really can see who is strong base on tactics. Once again, those were the days...
Busy period again as course has started, but this time was busy with the admin work. First day was really busy, was doing till quite late.
Sundown in 25 hrs time! Not much feel now as I try not to think too much, and also not to expected too much from my 1st marathon. Just hope to finish and get the finisher tee shirt, that's all!
Happy Birthday Jane!

I don't know what I am doing nowadays. Some things need to be done and yet I am always procrastinating, and do it unwilling. It happened many times, I just don't feel like doing it. It is not related to work, it's just me, recently. I am just feeling tired. I no longer feel the sense of satisfaction, no longer have the feeling like last time. Sometimes, I do regrets for not doing the thing I always wanted to do. It's just too late.
At work, so far so good, but the worst is definitely yet to come, that's for sure. Bring it on, and I definitely overcome all these f_ck up things. I have to have more belief in myself from now onwards.
Duty on Friday is another screw up, though I haven't been doing it for 4 months, but it's not a excuse for not doing it well. Haven't been sleeping throughout the night, was just stoning at the air-con room. Receive at least 3 calls from the same person, but the content is the same. I really think that he is a nice man, being my first interaction with him.
On the way home, took bus 969 from Chong Pang, I really hope to fins a place to sit so that I can sleep throughout the journey, but...no choice, stand near the standing area, the newer buses should have this area. One of my hand was grabbing onto the triangle piece, the other one on the lower metal part. I close my eyes and rest. I shall not bother how the others looked at me, I just rest while standing. Many a time I was on the verge on falling, at least 4 times I think, but I was really too tired to bother what the lady's expression behind as she was standing very close to me. Upon reaching Tampines interchange, got the urge to consume so junk food/drink, so I went to the cheap bubble tea shop to order a drink, didn't order in the end as the 'pearls' are not ready yet. Went across to hunt for alternative, sundae strawberry! It was like since last year I had it. However, after one mouthful, my urge to complete it has decrease. I sat down, looking emo, to finish the ice-cream. I can still remember during trainee time in AI, whenever we can order delivery, I will order sundae strawberry, knowing the fact that it will left with 70% of the ice-cream(30% melt become milk shake). Perhaps cookhouse food is making everyone turn crazy for outside food. I went to Cheers to get the Pokka milk tea after that, to find out why so many people love this berverage, and I got my answer =).
Getting a bit 宅 nowadays. Last time use to think that Mr Y is like that, as he told me that he hasn't been going out during weekend for 3 months. Now come and think about it, quite miss those days when I had the same commitment on weekends, even though the rest said that it was rather lifeless. I really miss those days now.
According to my research on the definition of 宅男/宅女, here are the following:
(1) 头发散乱或是很油亮
(2) 衣着简单、不修边幅
(3) 喜好玩电玩及观赏动漫 (有时候特指十八禁或是萌系，女性则是BL作品)
(4) 讲话与人不着边际或不注重人际关系
(5) 有收集动漫商品的嗜好
(6) 有聆听动漫相关音乐的偏好
(7) 整天窝在家内不出门
(8) 常用网络环境代替现实中的交友行为
Guess that I am not so 宅 afterall!
Sundown next week, just collected the racepack, the shirt is quite tight, not sure if wearing that for running or not. First marathon in my entire life, it's another experience for me. I hope to enjoy this. For this upcoming one, I just target to complete it, but not to the extend of walking throughout. Perhaps less than 6 hrs? Long time never train, really good luck to me, please.
Tomorrow will be a very busy day for most of us at work, with the new outfit. Hopefully it doesn't look like a pyjamas party in the office.
Borrowed some books again, hope this time can finish at least one book.
Happy Birthday Michelle!
Happy Birthday Quan Hao!
Happy Birthday Alvin Choo!

Opened the office at 7am today, for their preparation for in-pro. But turn out that I was waiting for 20mins before the second person appears. Today was quite peaceful as the old man is not around. A lot were clearing off today, either 1 day or half day. If not for the in-pro, i will be clearing as well. As usual, do the usual stuff. Zhi Rui was sms-ing me just now, was quite unexpected. He asked if I am ORD-ing tmr. I said no, which lead to the thinking that my batch of poly batch will be ORD-ing this week, which includes Si Rong and Ze Feng. Both ORD-ing on the 13th. Civilian life means a new chapter begins.After 2 yrs of military life, it's time to face greater challenges. As for me, 6 more months to ORD, not sure if I am ready for this day. For now, just wanting to get out of this cycle, a whole cycle of regimental duties. However, when the ORD day really comes, will the pressure increase?

Thursday's night was left with only me again in bunk. Went for a jog, then watch TV, then lights off. Saw those officer cadets booking out at around 2345h.
Friday morning, wake up at 0650h, wash up at get ready for work. Douglas was earlier, so he drew the office key before me. The office look quite empty as other working days at 0715h. By 0735h, A called back to report sick, B arrived at 0745h. Tune on to 93.3FM, hear of the news that C was finally caught. I started the day by logining into the OA, doing what there is need to be done, followed by collect newspaper, prepare powerpoint slides, forms etc. Douglas wanted to photocopy some documents opposite us, however, lights were not on.I went to toilet, realised that the dept beside us were all not in. Went to the usual place to collect newspaper, the door is locked.
Received around 3 phone calls today and trying to finish up what's left on the format of the document.
At 1715h, passed by the stretch of corridor to reach the DO room, it was so quiet, other dept were all not present in camp.
I left the camp at 1735h.

Live firing is finally over. Got sunburn and lots of mosquito bites. Really tiring!
In-Pro day on Monday, got to settle a lot of stuff. However, some last minute have to settle before noon that day, which really keeps me busy the whole morning, working non stop till lunch. First In-Pro things done by me, not very satisfactory, shall do better next time, afterall, I got till July,
Off day is kind of monotonous, such as went for driving lessons, eat, sleep, jog, tv, internet etc.
It's the month of May. Great Singapore Sales coming at the end of the month. Looking forward to it. few more course = few more In-Pros.

Down with flu, sick again.
Went for today's NE trip at National Museum of Singapore. Not as boring as I thought, kind of enjoy it. Get to see all those old things which we don't get to see it nowadays.
Taking over as admin spec already, life sucks, but I will hang it there. First day as admin spec and it's not working smoothly.
Clearing off this week and next week. Still planning what to do during this period of time. But then still worry about work, unsure if it is done or not. Anyway, working with that old man really makes me feel pressurized. How I wish he can go for a 3 month holiday immediately.
Hear of the strong wind on Wednesday night? It really look scary. Happened to be outside at that time when I saw those trees were swaying very strongly. Those signboard were looking as though they will fly out anytime. The whole stretch of road was really dim, deserted and scary.
Took IPPT on Wednesday, just like what I expected, I didn't managed to get gold, mainly is the running timing still not good enough. It really saddens me to see the drop in fitness after so long of breaks. Nowadays training for sundown, hopefully I can at least finish this marathon, not to mention about fast speed.
The road is really long for this critical 3 months. In life, you gain something, you may also end up losing something, however, I don't know what I will gain, but I will definitely lose out more things.

3 weeks unable to come online, due to internet down at home. Finally after 3 weeks, internet is working again. It sucks without it.
Sometimes, not everything is on your way or the way you want it to be. It really saddens me when I had Chicken Pox a week ago. Seriously, if this happen a week or 2 weeks later, things will be so much better. I had miss the precious time, important moment with them.
Talking about Chicken Pox, a lot actually say they had it since young, I was wondering, when will my turn be. Even after what happened to Mark (OCT then) during BK, I thought I was consider lucky for escaping it. It struck me with Chicken Pox last week, the unexpected period of time.
Had 1 week of MC from the medical center. I extended it with 1 more week even though I hate to do it, as staying at home really boring, but no choice.
Really thanks for all wishes. Each of it really brightens my day. 10 more minutes to the end of today, hopefully this year will be a better year.

The cursed Friday the 13th sucks. This day doesn't goes smoothly for me.
- Morning wake up feel tired
- Draw arm timing late due to fuck up timing given
- Lack of manpower, I had to do the preparation alone
- Water point stores left unattended
- Didn't ask them to keep
- Hidden by someone
- Whole world was questioning me
- World world know it's my fault (Including trainees!!)
- Feeling so fuck up
- ISAC card got lock

1/3 of the course is over. No mood for this course, feeling restless. Anyway, yesterday saw an email regarding the individual timing for 121st ARR result. I took 4.57 minutes to complete. It was the one of the slowest among those NSF. After seeing it, was rather depressing. I didn't expect to have such timing. The trial was 4.49, 8 seconds difference. It really saddens me.
Finally went for swimming this morning, but didn't last long. After that, went to SIM open house with Melvin, saw some familiar faces. We completed gathering the brochures within 20minutes? I can't decide which course to apply. The open house was kind of unexpected.
Meet zf n raymond for dinner at tampines. The last time we met was dunno how many months ago. Everyone was busy, after dinner all went home. Looking forward for the next meet-up. Same goes for the ASC meet-up too!! BMT meet-up will be better!!
