Ok, I am tired of irritating pple...

Juz got another irritating comment... you pple juz dunno when to stop yah? I'm getting tired of saying again and again and again... always having to repeat my stand and beliefs, and I believe it's a gang of gals I'm repeating it to. It's a nuisance to tell pple who juz dun listen nor understand, treating advice as garbage and inhaling farts (common to most as "PI4") as oxygen. Give me my 75mm and I'll shoot them down. I have been a really nice guy, not using any vulgar language or stuffs on the net... but you juz dun quit... haiz... I'm quite disappointed in "you"... People have limitations on certain stuffs you know? For example, IRRITATING PESTS like Anonymous who have been posting irritating comments which have turned to be an abuse of my kindness for the public to comment on my blog.
How would you feel? If someone else does this kind of stupid abuse on your own email, blog, mobile phone, etc?

Confucianism says that "Do not do to others what you would not want them to do to you" (Analects, Book xii, #2)

Would you want this to happen to you? Think about it.

Your most recent comment has each and every sentence contradicting the next.... if I were your English teacher, you would have failed liao... tsk tsk tsk... Not that I wan to suan you, but every statement you make, you stab you ass with a knife (I'm saying that you make flaws everywhere) and try to cover the loopholes! GOSH! If you wan to tell me something on the net, prepare beforehand then post lah... so much time to think and type... but now you make me think you dunno English... My impression of you is very very poor now. lol...

To all my friends:
Well guys and gals, due to the abuse on the comments section by this irritating Anonymous, I have decided to only let Bloggers post comments on my blog. I sorry to all my faithful readers and regular comment-posters, but I have to stop this person from abusing my blog. It doesn't pay to be Mr. Nice Guy always.
I know you all will understand my situation!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Oh yah, I may stop blogging for a while coz it'll be a bz time bidding for modules and preparing for the new year and semester! So perhaps I wun be regularly posting le! Do take note! =Þ
Everyone, Happy New Year!

Nervous!!!

Had dinner today wif lao po's family... one word:~ N.E.R.V.O.U.S.! lol... really nervous... but it was a good start at least... heehee...

Oh yah, also cleared alot of things in my place today... empty alot of stuffs... lol...

I'm sick of my...

Yes! I'm totally sick of my Pacnet ADSL internet connection! Keep disconnecting like drink water! OMG! so sick of it... I tried changing telephone lines, reseting the modem, this and tat.. but to no veil... haiz.. abit sick of it liao.... dunno if it's really the telephone line problem... should I call singtel or Pacnet? haiz... I really thinking of getting a wireless router... but if it's really the phone line problem, then no use also...

Wah lauz.. I wan to cancel this line... sign up wif starhub!

Buang....

Yes... I'm back from a great evening wif lao po... so now see results... yes...buang.... can kiss me 2nd upper honours goodbye and smell the smoke...
It turned out that the modules I put in most efforts in terms of revision and project work & time were the ones that I didn't score and yes the few modules I didn't expect to do well got the well deserved results which I couldn't complain. This sem juz isn't gd... results really falling, even for project based modules.... totally dunno wat is going on... my design module was the one tat I felt most depressing, esp. after putting so much time and effort in it... didn't get wat I thought I would achieve... haiz... effort and work isn't proportional to my final results.... damn... f*uck.... doubt I'm going to put this much effort in my future semesters liao... already see efforts go down the drain for 3 sems le... perhaps Bioengineering isn't my cup mycup of tea. Really regret going into this field in terms o future working prospects... haiz... wat can I do now? hang in for another 3 sems see wat will happen lor... but I'm sure that I wun go into this field of work in future... really feel "disguisted" already... lol.... but ok lah, I have always been a outcast here at Bioengineering... the lowest of the lowest! HOHOHOHOHOH....
Anywayz, Merry X'mas everyone! Enjoy yourselves before the new year arrives!!!! Take care!

Countdown?

Wahahaha... today's the 24th le! My results are finally coming out this evening at 7pm!!!! *gan cheong!* But ok lah, it's all finalized... so cannot change watever liaoz... but not checking the results at 7 coz I'll be out wif lao po, not to celebrate christmas (I not christian mah...) .

To me, X'mas is juz another public holiday (all thanks to my father's years of "guidance" and the many "things" that once happened to me). So I dun really like to celebrate the occasion. I wun do parties or wat, but spending time wif friends is still ok wif me.
But this year, I got someone special to spend this time wif. This day will be so much more special than X'mas itself, coz it's quality time spent together wif the one I love... all the more special is that she understands my weirdness and does not make me change who I am... this is someone who unselfishly loves me for who I am, and I'm really grateful and blessed that she accepts me as such a person. Lao Po's so wonderful and understanding, knowing that I dun celebrate X'mas, she doesn't make me celebrate it... thank you lao po... *mucks!* Ai Si Ni le...

But anyway, though I dun celebrate X'mas... I still wanna wish all my friends and family:

"Merry X'mas & a Happy New Year!"

Wanna add this too, juz in case Anonymous doesn't read my comments after posting only:

Dear Anonymous,
I think you ought to stop posting such comments you noe... watever you write that is intended to "say" me is not getting to me.
It's only that you're making me feel that you're desperate and lonely for love, it's making you appear very degrading to me... stop making yourself look bad infront of me, although i wun noe who u r lah... but deep down in yourself, you'll noe. Please try not to insult yourself any further than this k? =)

Take care, Merry X'mas & Happy New Year!

Regards,
Edmund

The KL trip story... (my version!)

~17th Dec Nite~
After talking to Lao Po on the phone for a while, I went to bed... Wasn't able to sleep immediately coz very long nv hear her voice and so very happy to be able to speak to her on the phone! But then she throat not good, could hear her voice abit soar... poor lao po... =( I tried to catch some rest as I have to wake up at 6am the next day... though tired, I am very happy!

~18th Dec~
Wah, woke up at 6... dunno wat time I slept... but not enuf sleep... v tired..went to meet the rest of the grand-uncle and auntie, uncles & aunties, cousins, etc, to take a coach down to KL. The journey was very very long... almost 6 hrs... can die... but lucky got stop 3 times for a meal and 2 toilet breaks...on the coach, my 2 cousins, one's girlfriend (I finally noe her name le! lol...) and I played Big-2 to past time... then later played UNO wif the younger cousins coz they woke up from their sleep le... poor us... nv sleep... but I finally concuss on the last 20 minutes of the trip.. too tired lah...
Then we checked into KL Plaza, the hotel machiam chalet like tat. 3 rooms, 2 toilets, 1 living room cum dining room and 1 kitchen! wah seh! shiok shiok! after which we settled down, my cousin and his girlfriend and me went out for lunch! my youngest cousin tag along wif us... kekeke... very cute lah him...but we got lost on our own, cannot find any decent coffeeshop around. Wandering about 20 minutes or so, walking to 3 different shopping centres and checking the directories... we met the other family members in one of the shopping centers... we all went for a super late lunch (ard 3 plus). After which, my cousin, his gf and I went shopping... I so light-bulb... haiz... but used to it liao lah, last time also like tat one mah.. lol... I wasn't gd at shopping, but I wanted to get lao po something she'll be able to use. I didn't noe her size, so clothings were hard to pick. She has to be there lah, if I getting clothing... so in the end I got her something else. Heehee... The first day was pretty much like tat... slow and quiet... all of us were tired, so we had a early nite (ard 12-1).

~19 Dec~
Diao.... 7 plus in the morning, my auntie called our hotel room. Call me to give them wake up call for breakfast. Not enuf sleep!!!! haha... but wat to do... she called a second time ard 8. Diao... tired... but I washed up and went down. Later in the morning we went down to Michelle's place. Then in the afternoon, we rested and took things slowly. The dinner was tonight, everyone was exicted about it.
I muz say, the dinner was fantastic! So much better than the Singapore one! Hahaha... Seafood cheap mah. Best of all, my table 10 people, 3 relatives vegetarian.. and the rest of the 7, only 2 males!!!! So you can imagine how much my cousin and I ate!!!! LOL... so full... and guess wat? I drank only 3 cans of beer and my grand-auntie scold me liao! Wahahaha... so funny, but well... I know she meant well...
After the dinner, we went back to the hotel... my youngest uncle took my cousin, his gf and I go KL's MS to cheong! Wahaha, I felt so old... clubbing is so out of my lifestyle liao... lol... my uncle call me to go dance but I too long nv dance liao... then my cousin call me to go sian gals! OMG! diaoz... but no lah, got my lao po enuf... no one else more important than her le... so go noe these gals for wat? lol... somemore my uncle around, how can do such things anything... ah duh.... besides I go clubbing only wan to drink one. heehee....

~20 Dec~
Went back to the hotel around 2 plus... bathed and then went to sleep. Diao, woke up already 10 am... haha... but I realised that I'll be taking my uncle's car back to SG. So we have to leave earlier. So I went wif my cousin and his gf for a last minute shopping... but I nv buy anything lah... after which we went off in my uncle's car. leaving at 3 from KL, we travelled back to SG... wah, damn long journey... shagged... though I nv drive but tired... I'm totally impressed by my uncle.... he sleep less than me, then he still drive all the way... *Ou xiang!* we reached the SG immgration ard 7 plus.. damn... traffic jam (got accident, 4-5 cars bang) stuck us there for about 45 mins- an hour... so SIAN!!!! Once we got out of there, my uncle *woosh!* Nothing beats the SG roads! lol...lesser cars and not so horrible drivers (I think)... so my uncle dropped me at Toa Payoh and off I went to meet lao po! Wonderful nite, even though I was so tired... Heehee....

On the whole, the trip was kinda boring for me. I was so light bulbed thru the whole trip. My lao po nv go wif me, so shopping was bored. Plus I seldom do shoppin mah. Buy also dunno wat to buy for other pple... But KL at this time of the year is a very good place for gals... alot of sales going on... if lao po got go, surely do alot of shopping one! lol... for guys, only if u're into the street food or cheonging.. otherwise nothing much bah? heehee.... coz I think the clothes there for guys very ah beng or ah pek! lol... plus the customer service in some shopping centers very turn off... coz dunno melayu... (this may sound a bit racist) Shit! (sorry... I juz felt tat way at that moment when the sales gal treated me... esp. since they were in the service sector... damn...)

But I really enjoyed the wedding dinner... good food, more traditional chinese style (cantonese style in fact)! And plus I tried my cantonese (very simple one..)lol... wat a joke! kekekekeke.... the trip was tiring, but fulfilling.... I got to know some (distant) relatives better along the way, and the bonding of the family was utmost important. It is good to be wif the family once in a while.... esp I dun go down often since studies had taken up my time much....
It was a good trip of food and family time.... but not so gd for shopping on my part! lol...

Back from KL!

Woah! Finally after 3 long days in KL, I'm back in Singapore! I wun be writing too much in this post, coz I'm tired and it's kinda late liao. Well, juz wanna say that I'm so happy that I managed to meet lao po after one hell of a long day's ride from KL to 2nd Link (I actually tod it was Causeway! lol).... the feeling was hard to describe lah... 1 simple word I can think of is G.R.E.A.T.! Simply great! Nothing beats meeting the one person you love and miss... =)

Well, I'll write about my KL trip and my cousin's wedding in another post later. KL's really not bad, for a gal... lol.... Other than tat, I'm going to bed le... Good Night everyone! Sweet dreams!

Oh yah, I also wanna add this:
"Ok, I want to say first that I dun mind people posting comments in my blog. But please do state who u r, and not juz leave the comment as anonymous. It juz irritates me if you leave comments that aim to "shoot" me. If you wan to make a statement, at least put your name. If this continues, I'll delete all your comments and yes, I'll restrict this comment function to only bloggers. This is to avoid any further irritations or abuse by some.
I seek the understanding of my friends in this situation."

AHH!!!!!!

Pardon me, I'm juz feeling so happy now! kekeke... *super high spirits*
Lao po juz called me from HK... it was so pleasant to hear her... oh... juz makes my heart melt.... didn't talk too long, coz long distance call... expensive lah... but I really really very happy!
Can't wait till Monday when I come back Singapore! I so wanna see her! Oh my, can I go to sleep in this excited and happy state!?!?!?!??!?! lol... nv tat! Good nite world!
*super lovesick bird, yet very happy now...*

Leaving for KL...

Today was painting my father's room... very shagged... didn't expect juz one room, 3 hrs without rest of painting could wear me out to such a extend... muz admit my fitness and stamina isn't wat it used to be.. lol...

Things aside, I'm leaving for KL tmr morning... by bus! omg... long long journey.... can't think wat I'll be doing there... most probably I'll be alone... coz my cousins who are going will most prob be wif their partners and I wun wan to be a light bulb. My uncles and aunties will probably be gambling full day tmr... the wedding dinner's on Sunday... wat can I do there? Shopping? lol... can't think of anything else to do there... so alone....
I will want to rest early tonite, but I'm so excited... but becoz of the trip... but becoz lao po sms-ed me yesterday! I'm now waiting for her call... so excited!!!! Miss her so much... today is already the 5th day le! kekeke....

Ok lah, end here... take care people... cya people!

Great time at the wedding!

Today (Thursday, 16-12-04) was a great day! Wanna say this first:

"Congratulations Meryvn and Michelle! Wishing you both the best in years to come!"

The whole day was wonderful... and the wedding dinner was terrific... it was a memorable one... I am still quite shocked when Meryvn actually shed tears during his "gratitude speech"... I thought he forgot his lines and paused for a moment.. which then he cried... very touching... very sweet.... I juz wanna wish Meryvn and Michelle all the best and may my nephews or nieces come very soon in the future! lol...

Btw, tmr's Malcom's (Meryvn's bro) birthday! Happy Birthday man!

Groom nv drunk, the brother drunk! lmao! Damn weird! lol.... Once again, Happy Birthday Malcom! May all your wishes come true!

Time really really flies... juz seems like it was yesterday when the few of us cousins were playing passing bay-long, one-leg, soccer, etc... then grew up to play Bridge, Big-2, etc... Today it was Meryvn's wedding... fast... very fast.... then next year will be my brother's own one... @_@ So fast! I suddenly feel so old! Hahahaha.... so I told Malcom to hurry up... but we were "giving" way to each other... Best of all, my aunties all come and say they waiting for the Hong Kong wedding dinner. D.I.A.O.Z....... *blush blush*

Oh yah, did I mention? Malcom's girlfriend is also in NUS! LOL... 1 semester I nv see her b4! somemore I always pass by her lecture hall one.. diao diao diao... perhaps will get to see more of her next semester since now we now each other "exists"... LOL.... Err.. but then I forgot her name... *paiseh* lol... ok lah... better go bath liao... tmr still need to paint the house! And Saturday I'll be going to KL liao... till Monday evening...

Friends, take note that take note that Saturday till Monday I wun be in Singapore... dun bother to find me... lol

*Lao Po, if you see this post ah.. I going off on Saturday morning... u can sms me or call me, but try not to spend too much money k? Take care of yourself. I miss you so much.... Juz wanna say how much I wish you were wif me today... kekeke...*

Nothing better to do?

Yo friends, those from NUS!

Lao po has left for HK...

I'm juz back from the airport... sent lao po and her parents' flight... haiz... though I'm feeling rather sad now, and a little lonely, I am quite glad that her parents didn't seem to "dun like" me... *takes a deep breath*... relieved, coz this was the 1st time I actually met both of them together, and it was the 2nd time for both of them. Definitely I was nervous and shy... but I'm glad they were so nice and friendly...
But I'm juz so sian.. though I know that sometimes lao po and I have to have time by ourselves to do individual stuffs, I juz feel lonely now... 7 days... hope it goes pass quickly...
dunno wat I'll be doing today... sianz... maybe later in the afternoon pack my room to get it ready to paint... juz dunno... let me juz be alone rite now... I dun feel like going out...

Busy day!

This morning I woke up real early.. 9 plus though I slept around 2am. Had breakfast then we washed out 3 feet tank and decided to release our long-time luo han... she's been very old and foul-mood for a while le. So better to let her go into the "wild" lah... if not happy keep also we see heartache... So away she went...
Then my brother said that we'll be buying paint to paint the house.. diaoz... ok lor.. so we went in the noon and started painting the house from 3 till 7 plus... wah... siong... but we managed to finish the living room and dining area, not completely...
Then we went out for dinner... to celebrate my birthday in advance, the whole family... my father, my brother and girlfriend, me and lao po. Keke... But Lao Po had to leave early coz she will be flying off tomr for HK... haiz... *she bu de*
But it's part and parcel of life bah, there'll be times when we have to do some things without each other.. but I really hope the nx time she's flying off, I'll be wif her. So she went home and I went back to help out wif my brother's new marine fish tank.. the 3 feet tank now is his lor... so big... haiz... *tired*
Argh! I feel so weird now... haiz... I dunno if I can sleep, but I'll try coz I'm sending lao po and her parents' flight... it's about another 10 hours or so... so fast...
I'm going off to bed... nitez world...

i carry your heart with me

i carry your heart with me
(i carry it in my heart)

i am never without it
(anywhere i go you go, my dear;
and whatever is done by only me
is your doing, my darling)

i fear no fate
(for you are my fate, my sweet)

i want no world
(for beautiful you are my world, my true)

and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)

and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart
(i carry it in my heart)

e.e. cummings

THE WAY I LOVE A WOMAN

I love a woman like a dove loves to fly
staying tender to her ,
wiping each tear if she cries
telling her i love her no matter what
giving my soul to her hoping its enough to lift her spirits
out of a rut.

the way i love a woman is true
there is not anything i wouldn't do
i tell my secrets in my heart and my mind
and kiss her and tell her i love her all the time

the way i love a women is of my souls essence
given out of me a way that she knows she is my soul's essence
the fire which is down in me
the power that can destroy me

the way i love a woman,
it honest and true
like my grandparents loved long and true
so i set my soul to one and only one
to love and cherish and bring me some little ones
that is love and it is so so true
that is the way i love a woman
and the way love is supposed to go to.

Thank you Lao Po! For such a wonderful time!

Ok, got home quite late... actually got locked out of the house by my hung-over drunk father who accidently latched the door... knocked for half an hour then my father woke up to open the door... I was so glad that nothing serious actually happened. Coz if something *touch wood* were to happen, I wouldn't be able to do anything coz the door's latched... I almost wanted to call the police.. HENG... Well, tat's pretty much why I'm not asleep yet and writing this post while waiting for my hair to dry...

Today Lao Po celebrated my 23rd birthday wif me, juz the 2 of us... Everything was P.E.R.F.E.C.T. and awesomely S.W.E.E.T., until Mr. You-know-who decided a little rain wouldn't do any harm... Yah, heavy rain... DOWNPOUR! We got drenched but things were still great! Despite the weather, both of us took it wif a smile... Really thank you lao po, for doing so much... I really really enjoyed this day, the time we spent together and of coz, I LOVE the presents you gave me... I really love them! And yes, I'm going to do something I seldom do in the past... lao po will be the only one to know it now... but close friends will notice sooner or later.. heehee...

"Lao Po, thank you for such a wonderful day... *very touched*
I'll treasure your gifts (*guilty*) to me and the love you unselfishly shower on me...
I really enjoyed myself today, being wif you really brings endless joy to my life.
I love you and I'll be counting the days, the mths, the years, n decades of moments tt we share together... life's juz so blissful with you beside me... neng2 he2 ni3 qian1 shou3 wo3 ye3 shi4 xing4 fu2 de... Aishiteru..."

Thank you guys, esp. Shaolong...

Ok, from this post onwards... everything will not be as detailed as before. Dun wish to let unwelcomed readers know about all about my personal life anymore... Sorry friends, but think I have to do this... for me and my Lao Po.

Today my friends helped me celebrate my 23rd birthday inadvance. Went down together wif Shaolong by bus, and lol... long time nv talk cock wif him on bus liao... Year 1 & 2 we did it quite often coz take bus to campus mah. Really miss the old days... We went to Tea Chapter to yum cha first before we proceeded down to Suntec for steamboat buffet. Friends who came included Teck Wee, Shaolong, Wenling, Daniel, Yangzhen and of course my one and only, Lao Po! Had alot to eat at Tea Chapter, then somemore buffet dinner steamboat style! Kekeke...

The day was simple was sweet, but the planning is always tough and tedious... I juz wanna thank my good friend-cum-buddy, Shaolong, for doing everything... from planning, organising, calling other friends, making reservations, etc... Ryu-san, Honto ni DOMO ARIGATOO GOZAIMASHITA! I really appreciated it!

This post goes to my Lao Po!

Today I attempted the impossible... for my all the while supporters of this blog... they will noe that I hav attempted many many times on the SAF IPPT test... lol... think I took about 5-6 times I believe... 1 in-camp and 4 other non-ict IPPT tests. This was the post:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Today it was raining at my place as early as 230pm... I've already booked an IPPT session at Maju Camp which starts at 5pm. I called the camp and despite the rain, they're still holding the session. So, I travelled down the 1 hr journey.

This was my 4th Non-ICT IPPT test that I'm taking... Nervous, exhausted and freaking tired, I believe today was the day I can finally get the stupid $100 from the SAF. My previous attempts were all crampled at the hands, or should I say.. the legs, of the 2.4 km run. It was weird though... During my ICT, my timing was 12:26s, a mere 6 seconds to pass... How irritating it was to miss it!!!

Hahaha... but the following tests turned out to be worse... increasing to 12:46, then dropping to 12:38, to 12:22. WAH!!! 12:22, again missed it by 2 seconds!!! Kekeke..

But today, I did my personal worst... having attacked by stitch and gastric pain... I was totally helpless at the roads of Maju Camp... Indeed, I failed once again.. having a timing of 13:16. Gosh... I juz cannot run!!!! But nevertheless, I'm not going to stop now... I still have 5 months or so to pass my IPPT, and I am going to do so! My plans will be to do personal training ASAP. Yes! That is my aim for now! Muahahha
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Wat was impossible was that even after those 5 months... I didn't do much of a training... after the exams I only ran twice and both times I didn't finish 2.4km wif 'all the way running'. So today was my attempt on IPPT again coz my window is about to close next Monday. I went down Maju camp again... And guess wat? I met my coursemate Lin Li there! Keke... he was also taking IPPT as his window is closing soon too.

Everything was going well... my four stations pass lah. I was pissed that the PTI deducted 4 situps from my 40! WAH LAUZ! But bo bian lor.. 3 pts then instead of 5... shitz... but the rest was still ok, well pull-up dropped from 12 to 8... OPPS! Kekeke... so left wif 2.4km run! Surprisingly.... I managed to finished the whole 2.4km run and pass the STUPID IPPT!!!! HOORAY!!!! But the details are more interesting!

The first round of 800m... I sprint to the 2nd place... juz behind Lin Li.. lol... we both run and run... but soon a lot of pple overtake me liaoz.. kekeke... but I finished the first lap in 3min 35s! WOAH! I've nv done tat b4! Amazing!
Then the 2nd lap was tougher... I started to slow down... my legs were getting heavier by the second... wah... so painful... but I "dong"... try to at least finish the lap... then I thought to myself... I wan to stop lah... buai tahan liaoz... But then, when I completed the 2nd lap, it was onli 7min 55s!!!! OMG! I had I had a whole 4 minutes and 20s to do the last lap! I "DONG"!!!! BIA!!!! CHIONG AH!!!! Run I went! Oh yah, I forgot to say... the soccer field there had fertilizer and omg, the smell is horrendous! But then again, cannot dun breath... lol...

But then already so shagged and painful... the 3rd lap was a total killer for me... I really wouldn't be able to fin the lap if I wasn't thinking of somebody... someone so special... wif her in my mind... I somehow managed to keep on goin! Yah, u guessed it rite! My Lao Po! Kekeke... all the way through the 3rd lap I was thinking about her... telling myself I not running for myself... but for my Lao Po too! Heehee... so I could continue somehow... Woo... interesting isn't it? It did seem like a miracle!

Then towards the finishing point, my legs were really not under my control liao... so pain and numb... seems like I input, then all the data juz run by itself... dun care anything else... so CHIONG AH!!!! U can guess! I passed! 12min 05s!!!! WAHAHAHAHHAHA! YESH YESH YESH!!!!! I cleared the stupid thing! Lol... So happy!!!!

The power of love? Can it really make the impossible become possible? I'm not exactly sure about it, but this IPPT sure make it seem true! For a guy who has been failing IPPT for 5-6 times, didn't train much before this test, eating a lot recently, etc... So how could I have actually passed???? I didn't expect to pass too! And by 15secs! Kekeke... amazing...

So I really wanna say: "Thank you, Lao Po... I couldn't have done it without you..."

Hilarious army story!

My friend forwarded this to me, damn funny! Guys should find this hilarious!

For the benefit of Woof! who was so stoked by the sentimental Army post that he left a comment that had to be truncated, and then pressed the publish button three times some more; and for Malaysian boys who wish they had the benefit of National Service, here is an Army anecdote. Look away now, girls. It probably is not funny to you, but I swear it'll bring a tear to Woof!'s eyes from laughing too much. Guaranteed.

Wonsaponatime, Attila Combat Team ('A' Coy, 46SAR) had a new NCO (now known as Specialist) who was incredibly inept at everything he did. The entire company viewed him as a danger to everyone else. Once I even had to ride my bike into a ditch to avoid being run over by the Armoured Fighting Vehicle he was commanding.

We felt a little sorry for Cpl Tan Ting Tong (I can't remember his real name), for he wasn't cut out for Armour, much less as a commander in Armour. But because he was the one most likely to get us killed, there was a concerted effort from both the officers and men to get him out of the company. Bit hard, given that you don't get dismissed from a unit because of stupidity.

And so, we hatched a diabolical scheme to make Cpl Tan Ting Tong to do something so inept, but without danger to his company mates, that would see him get transferred out.

During one field training exercise, we parked our vehicles in formation and rested for the night. Cpl Tan was still on alert in his commander's cupola, in his vehicle, One-Two-Bravo. Me and the company sergeant major asked him if he was hungry. He said yes.

We then said 'Did you know that you can order pizza through the radio comms'?

'Izzit?'

'Yes, you dunno meh? Switch to this frequency, order what you want, give your location MGR (map grid reference) and they will deliver, no matter where in the jungle you are.... and if more than one hour, you get one free garlic bread and pepsi'.

The trap was set. We went back to company HQ's vehicle, One-Niner, tuned our radio to 'Pizza Hut' frequency and waited.

Faster than expected. And in proper military radio protocol:

*crackle* * buzz* Hallo Pizza Hut, Hallo Pizza Hut, This is One Two Bravo, message, over.

Stifling laughter, our company 2IC (2nd in command), took the radio handset and replied,

'Pizza Hut, send, over'.

'One Two Bravo, err... um... want to order one Super Supreme, over'.

'Pizza Hut, say again, over'.

'One Two Bravo, one Super Supreme, over'.

'Pizza Hut, roger that, would you like a drink with that, over?'

'One Two Bravo, errrrrr.... that's a negative, over'.

'Pizza Hut, that's a roger, what is your mike golf romeo (MGR), over?'

'One Two Bravo, umm.... wait... ummm two... six... three... four... seven.. two, over'.

'Pizza Hut, confirm mike golf romeo two six three four seven two, over'.

'One Two Bravo, umm... that's a roger, over'.

'Pizza Hut to One Two Bravo, roger that, rendevous at your location in figure zero five mike, please prepare exact change'.

'One Two Bravo, ummm, ok, roger'.

'Pizza Hut, out'.


For dereliction of duty, unauthorised use of military communications and generally flouting Article 25 of the Singapore Armed Forces Code of Conduct, Cpl Tan Ting Tong was given a field demotion to spare MG gunner. Later on, he was transferred out of Attila, and even later, out of the Battalion. His replacement, Cpl Koh Lian Thye, was almost just as inept, but that's several other stories altogether.

Totally new look!

Well, saw Lao Po changed her blog layout and I too decided to do the same. Actually I had intended to change my blog to this style for some time le.... I came across someone's blog a few months back... and found the code very interesting. If you have seen my old blog, the html code had bits and pieces of code from tat blog. I was actually trying to put some of the code in mine. But I didn't actually found the time to do a proper one. But last time I stayed up till 3 plus in the morning to do it.. understanding the code and how it worked. Although the code may seem similar, I will say that I added a few things here and there... the layout may look the same, but well... wat can I say, it looks good. that's why I'm using it. I've included the source in my html code, juz to acknowledge the person's work. >.<

And yes, Lao Po say that Yellow aura become black aura liaoz.. lol... But Lao Po, rest asure that though some things may change... my love for you will never die nor change.... I love you...

It's a month together...

Its our 1 mth anniversary!
We met for lunch... well, it was kinda late (keke, I got poor time management? lol..) but still it was lunch... esp. it was wif lao po...
We got a pair of couple rings & took a photo card that says "i love u" with a brown background which lao po described as "melted chocolate spread"... kekeke... come to think of it, it does look like it! heehee... one word... S.W.E.E.T.

~*I wish for our love to be like our rings... going round and round, forever and ever..*~
