Dear Diary,
haha this is the first time I got coerced into writing an entry. Well not bad, blogging is afterall an excercise most people use to excercise their poor overworked fingers to gain satisfaction that their memory had not fail them. Well, where should I start. Hmm... let me start on my current civillian-military men paradox for appetizaers..
Why the paradox as you might ask, Mr Diary... Well, I am currently in a serious identity crisis as I am a supposedly civillian holding a military identity card or a military guy going through civillian life now. In any case, it certainly gets really confusing whenever you go through your daily routine trying to act like you are just another little boy out there trying to watch a movie that is NC-16. Tried to watch brotherhood the other day and was told to show my ic first(I thought i looked old enough to be exempted from that tedious process). Anyway, i showed him my green ID card and was shown those kind of disdain look by the ticketing personnel who asked me if Brotherhood is a compulsory show that had to be watched by all SAF people. Fed-up, I watched spiderman for the second time. But it is not that I am complaining. Spiderman is a good show.
So what had I been doing during these period of a fake 'ORD'?/ Well, been walking around like an aimless zombie, running around like a dog unleashed, still trying to finish building my model abraham tank or whatever you call it, sleep around like nobody's business. Yeah. That really sums up all that I had been doing all these days. A perfectly disorganised man who never sweeps his bunk(room), never pull his bedsheets, revellie at 1000h, lights out at 0200h. Yeah that is my life
And boy do I feel young in the university.

SWING
Dear Diary,
Just came back from watching spiderman 2 in the theatre.Must say that it is an excellent piece of work from its directors. Lots of ass kicking action, coupled with all the emotional conflicts present in the still-teenage Peter Parker. Not to mention that one of my all time favourite villain is in this installment. Way cool. However, I still must lament on the fact that Parker is still too ah gua lah. The movie portrayed him as too much of a sissy already lah and the movie parker also lacks the cynism and sarcasm of the comics Parker. Sigh.. just too bad lah. You can't get the best out of everything.
It was OCS carnival and anniversary yesterday. Let's not care about the anniversary as I only really cared about the food and talking cock with my old time canoeing buddies. Just too bad that we did not garner all who is there, meaning zhirong and I don't know who else... Yah...too bad that wenyang disrupted or we could have had a hassle free gathering of some sorts yesterday at the dining hall. Anyway, back to the carnival. My wing's tug-of-war team won the championship losing only one set throughout the whole series. So proud of the team. We really trained hard and under the careful guidance of our wing sergeant major who happened to be the former chief PTI of commandos and coach of the specal ops tug-of-war team, we won. Though our grit and perseverance must never be downplayed. We were only like 6 inches from losing the whole thing in the finals. However, luck and determination was on our side ans we bit our lips and pulled the opposing team out of position. Yeah! And did I mention that we won for ourselves a bottle each?? HAHA, so happy.
Bought the trilogy soundtrack and it just brings me orgasmic pleasure just listening to the orchestra performing under the baton of maestro Howard Shore. He writes such beautiful music for the theme and emotions of the story... It is just relaxing to the trumpets in the lor of the rings theme, the oboe in the hobbits theme, the eerieness of the elven theme, the brute of the orc theme and not to mention, the gondorian theme. Kao, orgasm like siao liao
