Forced to blog again. No escape this time though.

I've actually taken up rugby and am playing for my Formation in the Inter-Formation Rugby tournament. Had the first match against the Engineers last friday. Not bad.. we were thrashed 75-0 haha. Yup. But we expected like a 100+ - 0 score la so it was quite alright. Sides, the engineers took people out of service (i.e. NSman, ORD personnels) back to play for their formation. Out of a team of 15 people. They had 7 from the SAF Sports Association, SAFSA, and 2 national players. How fair. Oh well.

Anyways, didn't want to put it my all during the match since i've got the Jason Mraz concert to attend that night and also because it was a sure lose match. Hell, they scored the first try within the first minute of the game man.

Anyways, headed home, changed up real quick, met Sam and then headed off to meet Vidhya. Her favourite person in the whole world.. as according to her anyways. Both Mraz freaks. They'll just go.. OHH! have you seen the poster of Mraz along the road in town? The ones hanging off the lampost and all? I just wanna take one home!! Whooot!! Then i'll just be there minding my own business.. trying not to get freaked out with both their scary idolisation behaviour and all.. But it was embarassing! Sam was going on and on and on about Mraz so loudly i swear i could feel people staring at us. Especially when the 3 of us were at the entrance of the Esplanade via Citylink. They had this small standing poster of the Mosaic Festival which actually features afew artiste, one of which is Mraz and both of them just RAN for the poster which had his face on it which probably was like only 10 by 10 cm big. AND THEY STARTED TOUCHING HIS FACE! Or maybe just Sam. What's wrong with them!! Freaked out, i just side-stepped and walked off real quick and hid behind a pillar till they were done. What's this? Some kinda obsessive idol worshipping? Blah.

I must admit that i was probably a little jealous and all when my girl was going ga-ga over someone else. But it's probably just harmless idol worship. But still! She's like Ahh! Mraz this and that then i'll just roll my eyes. Shall just let her be luh.
So! Made our way to the concert hall.. Watched the opening act by some local band named 'The Unexpected'. And then intermission, then came in Mraz and Toka aka Stevie Wonder lookalike.
Toka was really stoned at the beginning but he opened up after that.. Made a blonde joke that wasn't actually funny but everyone including myself just burst out laughing cos he did those bimbotic impersonations and yeah.. he's real funny.. And Mraz's just witty and funny and all and it's crazy how he comes up with those songs of his. And although i'm no big Mraz fan.. i like his music, i like him as a person, cos he's really smart and witty and lovable actually (hope it didn't sound gay) and i could tell that he really misses his girl.. whoever she is. Let's just hope they work out fine eh? Cos love IS a beautiful thing.. and not having to experience it.. is probably the biggest mistake of anyones life. I know that.. cos i've got my love right behind me! Lying on the bed.. although she forces me to blog and all.. but hiyah.. just give in la.
Anyway the show was great, never a dull moment, They sang, they cracked jokes, the audience loved it.. Everything was good.. better than the kitaro concert i went to last time.. almost fell asleep at that one. He had stage presence and all.. Good, Great, Amazing, Mind-blowing, WONDERFUL show i must say. Worth all that 90 bucks. =D

Sam spend 2 hundred million dollars buying Mraz merchandise anyway.. Crazy nutcase.

Saturday. went for Ian, my besterestest friend/buddy/brother's 21st birthday. He's the first among the whole bunch of us to turn 21. High flyer la i must say.. And i'm really envious of him, so successful, so good with whatever he does. And i'm just glad to be his brother also la.
Let's see.. we hated each other's guts at first.. Not each other actually.. it was just me la.. hated his guts.. his cockiness.. haha. But i've since got to know him better thru ncc and hey, we're best mates now. Share some really secretive stuff, which is probably deemed unforgivably sinful.. Not really.. but yah.. we share secrets but i haven't been able to catch up much with him la..
My brother's going to OCS. He got his posting just one day before his birthday celebration. What a gift from the Army eh? =D See? Told you my brother was a high flyer. That's why i'm so envious of him.. If only i had to chance.. but circumstances and all.. But i'm just really happy for my brother.. to have a stable girlfriend.. good life in the army, i hope, good prospects.. and all.. haha. Hiyah.. This is gay shit la brother.. if you're reading..

HAPPY 21st man.. And again.. i hope you'll enjoy my gift eh? Hahaha.. should be interesting..

Alright, After all those waves of nags coming at me since Chinese New Years' Eve.. It has finally gotten to me.

OK. I SHALL BLOG.

Sheesh, This is really bad, i mean, it's bad enough to MAKE me blog. You guys don't know how much i hate blogging. Why? Because it's so taxing! You've gotta use soooo much of your brain. I'm in the Army! I don't USE my brain. I don't NEED to use my brain for goodness sake. Let it rest at home, in front of the computer, in front of the 'Battlefield' and 'Call of Duty'. =D Nah..

Anyway, here i am blogging again after 2 months. (Astonishing feat) Did i mention how much i dislike blogging? And how much it's take to actually make me blog?

Oh yes i did. How much will it take to make me blog. Let me see. She waves her hands in the air, body spasms, stamping & stomping her feet.. whines.. makes funny noises, whacks me.. All at the same time. She did all that on our way back from Greenridge, which is actually like 100m away from her place. She did that ALL the way from Greenridge. What a painful process. Sigh. And whenever i say there's nothing to do around here, like home and all.. she'll happily just say.. go blog! Wait hey. Go blog? It comes out easily from your mouth doesn't it. I've gotta put my fingers through a marathon whenever you say.. 'Go blog!' eh. *whacks* Yeah anyway. Just letting you guys know what kinda 'magic' actually made me blog. Get me to run man.. I'd willingly run. And she claims that i don't love her whenever i don't blog because i keep procrastinating and all. What? What kind of logic's that!? I'll blog a long one then.. for you to see.. Grr

Anyhows. I went to New Zealand for a Training Exercise, (What's up with the overseas trips anyway..) The numbers on the air tickets said SGD1000+ or something like that. Wtf!? Why spend so much money on me my Dear Singapore. Just give it to me and i'll work twice as hard in Singapore. =D Anyway, The trip was just a short one. 18 Days.. Not that short actually.
Well, we flew in early Jan and came back Just in time for Reunion Dinner. Anyway, Sam (Sam, is my girlfriend.. if you do not already know) was trying to go on about how much she's gonna miss me and all that and was already at the verge of crying.. =\ We do that all the time. The first India trip. She cried, cause we haven't been seperated for so long before. It was 17 days. Then came Thailand. She Bawled like Mad! Like seriously bawled her eyes out. And of couse i did too la, but i didn't cry as bad.. Of cos i didn't. She was putting images into my head la. How She'd be alone with no one to comfort if anything is to happen. =D Silly girl. And so Thailand was bad.. Cos it was a fcuken month long or more. So yeah. Few more days and i could apply for Thai citizenship. Anyway. With India and Thailand over, The only one left was New Zealand, So i thought, Since this is the last one, with no more in hand, it isn't gonna be as long. What the hell! Let's just make it a happy departure for me! Let's not cry and sob ever so miserably at each other and all.. And so we did. =) Ah c'mon. I'm gonna ORD IN ANOTHER MONTH OR SO.. We'd be used to this kind of things by now.. *smug*

But i felt so lost the moment i went through the departure gates la. Kept thinking of her, then called her and all already. Missed her so much! And the first day isn't even over. Such a softie.. But hell, i thought to myself. At least i'm on my way and getting it over and done with.

So! Landed in Auckland international airport probably around10am Anzac time? Stepped out into the open and was like.. What the fcuk. It's not even cold! The people that came here are fcuken exaggerating.. A*holes. Yeah.. Little did i know... Anyway.. Headed out for lunch at a Chinese restaurant.. -_- Hello, Majority of us ARE chinese, We're now.. in New Zealand.. Why aren't we having something ELSE for a change. We go to India we get Chinese food, we get to Thailand.. Chinese food and now New Zealand! ALSO chinese food. Why can't we get somethng exotic like kiwi.. (whoops) or something.. Just an example. Damn. Anyway. The journey to Auckland took 10 hours. 10 miserable hours. 10 hours of thinking.. 'how i wish i was on the plane right now heading in the opposite direction' and 'how i wish this whole thing will just fly by quickly so i can get back to my muah muah at home' (Sorry about the intimacy, not meant for you other people anyway.)

Following on, we travelled on by bus to the training camp for another whopping 7 hours. So we basically spent the entire day travelling.. Quite interesting actually. People in the bus (Most of them people i don't know of) were like.. OH LOOK! SUBWAY!! -_-" What the hell's their problem anyway.. They've got Subway in Singapore what! Crazy..
Anyway, i just spent probably 5 hours sleeping in the bus, nodding away, knocking my head against the glass window very violently whenever i doze off.. It'll be like the whole bus's silent.. then you'll hear a loud *THUMP* then i'll just sway away to the other side.. then few minutes later.. another loud Thump.. Some thought the driver ran over some poor animal. But who cares. I'm was tired.

So! Training camp was.. fcuked up apparently. Toilets were 200m away from the tentage. And from where we were, there wasn't shelter to ANYWHERE. not the cookhouse, (otherwise called the cooktentage) the brushing area, the portaloos or the showers. Showers were the furtherst. Imagine yourself wanting to shower at night. Oh, and Night ain't just night. I'ts FREEZING night. Like 5 degrees or something. RUN over to the showers 2million miles away in the dark, fcuken cold.. And worst thing is. Since there's limited warm water. If.. you're unlucky. You'll just end up bathing Cold water in 5 degrees temperature outside... Yah.. It happened to every single scrawny Singaporean there cos the fcuken heater broke down. Most of us didn't shower anyway. But i did... and regretted it.. Worse minute of my life.

Don't wanna talk much about New Zealand though. Cos it's damn draggy. Let me just summarise. Hmmm.. There were the people from the New Zealand Defence Force who came to join us.. Some of which who were casted as extras in 'The Lord of The Rings' as those Soldiers in Cool armour and all. Funny bunch. They are damn strong i tell you. Even the tiny ones. What the hell's wrong with them.
What else. Let's see.. Time difference was kinda hard to manage. Singapore and Anzac, With Anzac +5 hours faster. So Whenever i'm going to bed, My baby'll be somewhere in Orchard Road Shopping. -_-" Kanasai.
And erm. I wrote letters to her! 4 pages worth. Haha. Oh well, better than noting.
And last but not least, what New Zealand's famous for. It's Scenery. It's really beautiful. Nothing like anything that i've seen. The sky was damn clear and i could see every single star there was and fcuk, even the milky way i could see.. Then there i'll be thinking.. If only i'm with my Girl.. Then we'll just remember that moment as the most beautiful moment in our entire lifes spending time with each other under the clear sky. FWOAH! It's GREAT! I'll go there and honey-moon!

And time the time came for me to fly back to Sing-a-pore! Finally, the long awaited day. Oh yes, i forgot to mention how lousy the Airline is. I Shall not say which one but i'll just tell you how it's like. Airplanes now.. have got what. A tv screen in front of you isn't it? One inidividual one. And some, has got On demand movies. Or games, Or music. Or flight information. You know what my flight has? Nothing but a projector. Ha Ha Ha. So for 10 hours on my way to Auckland, i was quite an annoyed little Singaporean. But on the way back i just couldn't care less. I just hoped the plane'll just go MACH 5 or something. The sooner i'll get to see my BABY at the airport waiting for me!! =D

So yeah, Landed, Rushed off to find my baby, didn't even go to the Duty Free Store, just went right through the sliding doors and out to find her. But to no avail! Cos the flight was delayed due to some faulty engine, i called her from Auckland and told her to come like 45mins late. But Somehow or rather, we reached Singapore just 15 minutes late. So yah. Anyways, Saw her, Hugged her, Kissed her and made passionate love in the airport..

No i'mjust kidding.. What.. I can add a little spice into my story can't i? So we went home, unpacked and caught up with everything, New Zealand, Singapore and whatever that needs catching up with and went to bed... Yup.. Jet Lag. =D

So yay, Post NZ.

Chinese New Year was spent without my parents cos they've decided to run away from all the ang baos and go honey moon in Japan. naughty people. Haha. But at least they got to enjoy themselves eh? Anyways, I had the car all to myself. Muahaha. Nothing much la actually. Went visiting as per usual, My maternal side only actually. Cos i followed My baby with her family over to JB to visit HER relatives. Quite an experience actually. All the Kampongs and all.. Extinct in Singapore. Except for maybe 1 or 2. That was about it for Chinese New Year. =p Short one. heh

Valentines day! i bought a stalk of rose for everyone in the family, My mom, my sis, my 2 godmas, my grandmother, her mother and all. All except for my girlfriend.. cos she said she didn't like them. Haha. Nah.. But seriously. I thought of getting her a bigger bouquet of flowers but they were all so freaking hiked up. I thought i could just get those with bears in it kinda thing. But V.day came and i had no flowers. Cos i was suppose to meet Desmond on V.day morning to go do some stuffs, So i thought i could get the flowers then. But he cancelled the thing and i ended up with no flowers. Then i thought i could make a quick one down to junction 8 to get some.. but i don't know why.. i ended up at lornie road.. on the way to go pick her up. Then i'm like. OMG, i'm fcuked.. But just decided to tell her the truth anyway. It's the thought that counts! =p
But i got her a rose after that to make up for it la...

Okay, This is quite a long blog isn't it. Can i stop now? =I'll continue next weeek la...
Pleeeaaasseeee......................

Ok nevermind. i'll just post. HAHAHA
