after 2 years of fighting, trekking n all tht soldiering...it is finalli comin to an end as i completed my ORd parade yest...
i myself have attended 2 such parades before, sendin off my seniors as they step into the civilian society again.for both parades i tot it wld reali be exhilarating if i were part of it... aS we waited for the actual parade to start, sure there was lotsa anticipation esp when we c our family n friends start pouring in.
Don in No1 attire, all of us looked esp smart tht day. during the speech, the handing over, n seeing all our past comanders coming back to see us was heart warming and saddening. every sec of it made me tot of all the sufferings we use to have, all the exercise we completed n of curz atec missions tht we triumph. well mayb it wasnt so much abt being sad but really wanting to keep all those memories n experiences as close with me as possible. iTS amazing really how ppl frm diff schs,backgrd, religion who hardly knew each other can do all tht together for 2 full years...as much as we've had our fair share of fights n squabbles we also have many wonderful moments.
so the whole event ended with our parents taking photos with us n watching video clips of our traing,as we bid each other gdbye i realise there wasnt much sadness probably because we noe we still be very much connected. Eagles all belong to the same SKY!!

meeting less doesnt mean caring less
fewer words but more prayers
hardly see but know how you're doin
every chance to update i cherish

smile when you win
frown at your sin
laugh at humorous incidents
sigh at unfortunate accidents
the sun wldn't burn us out
the wind wldn't blow us out

like blood rushin out of the heart
we're in veins that go places very much different
nevertheless we're still connected
at a place very much the same.
our hearts

to all my closest friends....

bd@e g@theRinGS-boRinG OR FuN?

So today i went to another birthday gathering of my friend(ben). it was at downtown east, 2chalets,buffet,mahjong,lotsa friends.

as all of us tUrn 21, since the start of the year ive already had @ least 5-6 bdae party invitations...all close friends frm Sec sch days,camp, n JC days. no excuses if i turn em down, so ive attended quite a few. sum guys ask me wats the BIG DEAL reali? turnin 21 is juz lyk any other bdae! well, im not sure reali.In the past,parents wld also hold a party when their child turn 21,n during the celebration they wld give a 'key' necklace or sumthing like tht to their child. The key represents the key to freedom, it unlocks the 'lock' tht ur parents 'put' on u since young. iNTErestin i wld say.

most of my pals r complainin abt being broke frm all tht bdae presents,well i must admit all this partying dont come cheap. but its reali all for the fun of it. I personally enjoy all tht gathering of old sch mates,all tht chit chatting 'bout our sch teachers,old rumours n jokes.it nv fails to bring back sweet memories. but the most amazing part wld be the realising tht actually so many of ur friends r inter=link.no wonder they say Singapore is small..

2day i had a gd catchin up session with shiwei(nu er), haven seen her for so long already,still look eva so stunning of curz.nICE sharing of ur experiences, n yes im already abit gian abt joinin Sports Club!!ha,hopefully u can be my GL ya ...he...hope the best for ya,tk care pls!!mizz ya

well.bdae gatherings have its pros n cons.while im still not sure if im gonna have 1 myself this comin sept, i sure haf some tips for ya to prevent being bored or lost @ such events. 1)try not to go too early..(more ppl=more chance of meetin ppl u know)...2)mk sure ur budds r goin wif u(even if you're the minority uve got sumone to tok to).3)look gd!!(if sum1s interested in you, den prob is solved!!ha)..

gEttiNG clOSeR tO ORd

the day i surrendered my pink IC i told myself it'll end in no time, juz lyk my 2 yrs in JC.obviously tryin to console myself. In fact it turned out to be 2 long n gruelling 2 yrs, where limits were pushed n lifestyle was changed...

now tht im getting closer to becomin a civilian again, new probs surface,more worries to face,as though bein a soldier is beta. while me n my buds use to worry abt those filthy field trainin,we now worry abt uni subs, costs n stuff...today, we were given a tok abt rEService n in camp trainin. n it suddenly hit me tht im soon gona join those reservice guys tht i use to think were n mayb still is old n uncle-like. ha, no hard feelings but it reali does seem tough 4 em to be route-marchin, carryin loads equal to their weight n sufferin in camp wearin GREEN!!!hehe...

well...durin BMT, gfs were 1 of the few topic we use to tok n gossip(ha!!!!)abt in camp,durin trainin ,during guard duty,meal times n any other times when traing can get reali boring.haha...but of curz, soon after most broke up-gfs left sing to study,no time to commit,left 4 another guy,or lyk me 4 no reason...so all the sad stories start pourin in. its reali quite funny n sad of curz,one by one we were defeated(though not all,sum survived it til now!!!gd job,reali!)....sum turned to clubbin to geta noe more gals while sum juz enjoyed their new found freedom. But now, as we're gona OrD... new luv starts to sprout,sum fall in luv wif fellow clubber(rite bangla!?!),sum wif the flip of their old sec/pri/jc sch contact list, n dum frm the net...weird rite?well yes to me.how such phenomenon cld happen.fascinatin,reali!!!ha
juz lyk when we were gonna graduate frm sch, we start to cherish our classmates more...make promises to meet up frequently n all tht...the guys r sayin tht we wun haf much chance left to eat @ll meals 2gether,suffer 2gether even to share cab home ha...but 1 thing for sure we wun miss.....our balding,unreasonable, stupid CSM.haha...applause if u agree!!!ha,thanx

juz lyk Detz i dunoe why ive finally decided to start my own blog.Seriously though it nv appealed to me, though ive had spells with opendiary(it was cool then!!ha),but nonetheless here i m taking my 1st step into a blogger's world.I muz admit tht it has to be pure laziness tht made me hestitate joinin blog, n lyk any other guy-im afraid of being tied down ha.
Being pretty much a computer nerd, i muz admit tht i spent a hell lot of time changing n changin the pix,backgrd n stuff. though finalli i decided to keep it simple n juz b envious of ppls' blog tht look eva so sophisticated.ive tried all tht "copy n paste" thing but it always seem to become a mess!
wEll my previous opendiary lasted almost 2 yrs if i rem correctly..hopefulli this cld last longer(fingers crossedxxx)pls feel free ta comment n even bombard me(thts if u dare!!)ha..
