Update on Recruitment Drive

Year 1 CCA Orientation for Uni. Groups
is just..

6 days away!!!!

and though we arent really well prepared,
i think we are SLIGHTLY
more prepared thn how we were for ROD.

one LAST MINUTE change
which wudnt have been last minute:

some sec 2 cadets will join sec 1 cadets in the Mock Attack.
im not against it.
it actually made the whole thing better.

i just pity them.
they practiced so hard for Footdrill,
just to land up in this situation.

there are a just a few things im worried about Display.
but i wont reveal those.


Future Year 1s! NCC is THE Uniformed Group CCA to be a part of! Being a GOLD Unit since 1993 and Best Unit 7 times, we are more than capable in grooming you into fine leaders. You will also gain friends who are true and sincere, and priceless memories of countless activtivies!


The One in his winning ways

yeah!!
dat makes it four wins in a row!
after the win against Rahim.

CHECKERS

ze "Internet Checkers" found on the start button under GAMES.
They give you a random opponent from anywhere in the world.
U cant really chat, but they find u a player real fast.
and i just won my FOURTH opponent.
in a time span of 3 days.

the last one REALLY gave me a hard time.

im glad i found this seemingly new interest.
cuz i havnt really been using my brain these 2 months.
this wud be good warm up for upcoming
SCHOOL.

checkers


its all about reading the game

The One on Fire

I was on fire.
Nope.
Not because of soccer, basketball, or some game.
or anything else u were thinking.

Logically speaking, i was on fire.
As in i was BUURning.
I do NOT know how the heck it happened.
But my hair caught fire.

I was playing checkers against Rahim.
Seems like a very safe activity rite?
Not if the ppl around u were playing with lighters
and leaving the gas on for some time.

I was packing up the checkers set.
Rahim lit a lighter near to me.
And wadye know.
My hair caught fire.

So i did wad ALL of you wud have done.
PANIC
U telling me u can relax when ur hair was burning away?
The only resort was to slap and beat my own head
with my bare hands.
Fortunately, yes. It Worked!

Its scary.
Its not like the fire was burning very slowly.
The second he lit the fire, was the moment my hair started
to burn.
And i cud feel it spreading real fast.

As if i bathed in gasoline this morning.

The only logical explanation:

The gas they left on from the lighter
somehow was circling around my hair.
So when a fire was lit,
it all ignited.
Well dats the closest guess.

I wudnt say it was funny.
Not saying it was really tragic too.
But people..


my hair caught fire..

The One Whole Day Raining

All rain all day.
Dats Boxing Day for you.

Initially planned for it to be a soccer day.
It just had to be cancelled.

I'll leave you with another cut scene from Love Actually

The British Prime Minister

Love ACTUALLY!!

Xmas
And i woke up rather late,
reason being,
I stayed up to watch Love Actually on TV last night.
I recall wanting to watch it in theaters a few years back.
But my friends and I watched Brother Bear instead.
Anyway i wudnt have understood the movie
if i had watched it back then.
Ytday was the perfect time to watch it.

Its like 6 -7 love stories mashed up into one comedic movie!
Loved it of course.
There was especially this scene.
Fortunately enough, there is YouTube



She was 11.
ELEVEN!
YES! FREAKIN ELEVEN!
And the boy there, was 13.
Meaning they are 16 and 14 respectively now.

Well after that performance, it led to this.



there the story of another guy in between.
Haha.

Happy Xmas to all of you!

The One went to a wedding

Aight, twez mua cuz weddin jez now.
Not a cousin im close to.
But my parents always told me he and his siblings took care of me
everyday when i was a baby.

For dat, im grateful and for the first time
i willingly, attended a wedding.

It was like the whole big family united there.
In the past,
extended families,
gramps, parents, uncles, aunts, children,
they all lived together in the same village. Kampongs.

So just now was like Kampong Tanjong Hirau united.
After being separated into HDB flats.
Much noise and hype was created.

Anyway its Christmas Eve.
Even though i dont really celebrate it, i enjoy it!
Aight, im keen to catch Love ACTUALLY now.

I'll leave u with this lovely Christmas Song
by Michael Buble.
Please, take your time to listen to the song.

The One with 3 borrowed DVDs

Didnt borrow them today.
I think it was 3 days ago?
3 DVDs.
2 movies.

In response to Jiayi's constant blogging about how good Step Up is,
well, i borrowed it.
And now im not only crazy about the movie,
i'm crazy about the soundtrack.
I tried to keep up with the dance moves.
Couldnt make it.

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
One of the best movies ive watched this year.
People. Go rent or buy the DVD/VCD.
Ok, it may have a predictable storyline.
But the dance routines are savvy.
Also a movie fer all of mah Hip Hop peepz out there.
And the sparks dat fly between the 2 main characters make the
movie very romantic.

NOTE: The 2 are currently dating.


The other DVD that i borrowed is the X-MEN Trilogy.
Yep. A 3 in 1.
X Men, X Men United and X Men: The Last Stand.
Of course i only bothered to watch the third
cuz its the best out of the 3.

Also because of Ellen Page!
Kitty Pride i mean, aka Shadowcat.

Yep, i remember giving great comments on the movie the first time i watched it.
Still good the second time.
Just wished they put more screentime on Colossus.
He's the big guy who can cover himself with some sort of metal.

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
cool huh.

Of course, i mentioned i borrowed 3 DVDs.
The last one is more of a set.
Season One of PRISON BREAK!
Woo!
Now i dun have to wait for Channel 5.
Season 2 began in America, back in August.
Ppl who follow the series,
trust me, it gets better and better.

Like wad Lincoln Burrows always say,

U GOTTA HAVE SOME FAITH

i bballed with the Mun Wah, Chi Jie, Iggy, Jyi and Chin Dee just mow.
first time u know.
that i come out on a non schooling day and actually play bball
at a public court.

Im starting to get the hang of shooting 2 pointers.
And lay ups are not a problem if i evade going against taller ppl.
I should be ok, playing
ball with u guys during PE.
that is, if our teacher lets us play bball every lesson.
even so, we'll find time after school wont we?

HOWEVER.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, CHILDREN OF ALL AGES.

In no situation is A-z gonna put aside FOOTBALL
and play BASKETBALL instead.

The tired One

Rarr..
So tired..
Full day training 9am to 4.30pm.

Its true wad they say.
As a cadet recieveing orders, you always feel like ur being pushed around. and you dont like it.
You cant wait to become an NCO.

But when u are and NCO.
So many fears start to grow in you.
What if i dont give the cadet enough welfare?
What if i give too much and they climb over my head?
What do i do then?
Will this activity work? Will it be fun?
What do i do now/next?

There is so much preparation to be done.
And things dont always go your way.

In other words,
you wont really like it as an NCO too.
Its really a harder life.

But on top of it all, if you look at the positive side,
you learn new things almost everytime u do a mistake.
You will improvise on what you did,
or even come up with something new.

You know people better,
and people know you.

Im actually happy with the current situation.
They have learnt certain new things
and have improved alot.
But i still keep on seeing less than 15 coming for training.


Just wonder when that will change..

The One who ordered Pizza

Happy Birthday to my MOM!!!
yesterday

To tell you the truth i really dont know wads her age.
its gotta be 59 i think..

Well, we dont really celebrate birthdays.
Just ordered pizza for dinner
and breakfast today.

And what a dumb feeling to wake up with
when you know theres a full day training ahead.
And that Man Utd lost to a struggling West Ham.
1 - 0

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
Omg. is Alan Curbishley that good?
Its gotta be luck, im telling ya.


And the freaking Blues (Chelsea) got lucky too.
They cud have drawn with Everton.
But Drogba just had to score in the 87th minute.

But fret not, Man U is still 2 points ahead.
And theres still half a season to go.
The battle is far from

The One with Memories Of Nobody



This is a major big event in Japan.
Today, December 16th, is the release (BANKAI!) of Bleach Movie,
Memories Of Nobody.

For those who nvr watched Bleach b4, or are just not anime-friendly,
this trailer here might give u an idea of wad it is.
It contains scenes from the movie.

For all Bleach fans, lets pray that it releases
in Singapore pretty pretty soon.
Or maybe at least a subbed DVD.

The One making appearance on Channel 8?

Yes!
The fan is nt working again!
And fortunately theres an extra fan!

Wez walkin home from skool,
very near my block, at the foothills of Mt Faber,
a group of ppl surrounded a few other ppl
who really looked as if they were fighting.

Yes, they were.
They were shooting.

No. Not shooting bullets.
But shooting for a series/film.
I think its the same crew as the one shooting in GESS too.
Cuz earlier in school i saw the crew setting off to sumwhere.
And perhaps its common sense for them to go sumwhere near?
so i ASSUME its the same crew.

So. It crossed my mind.

Should I be an extra and walk past (behind) the actors filming?
Hehehe
Nah.. Wad diff will it make in my life.

Anyway i'm happy with my 0.5 second appearance in

The One, the Ah Beng and some kids

I forgot to mention.
I was sitting down waiting.
There was an Ah Beng
with some malay kids.
Small but going to be sec 1.
Just like how i was.

Kids: Eh play fire ah! play fire ah!
Another kid: Eh we burn plastic bag ah!
Kids: Ah ok ok. there got plastic bag
Ah Beng: Oi. Dont burn plastic leh. Plastic got the chemical burn then kan ni na chi bai. The smell worst thn my this one *refers to ciggeratte.


The One who played Sweeper

Ok. I didnt jog.
I walked to Hill Lock to see whether there were anybody kicking around there.

I saw one or 2.
I sat down.
Alot more came.

And wadye know.
I found a new group of ppl to play soccer with.
Alot of familiar faces actually.

And so my first game.
I went straight to attack.
wtf.
I missed in front of goal 5 times.

Ppl were like saying, "Ah. He's no big deal"
i could see it in their faces.
damnit.
u know how dat feels?

to come and play with a fresh new group of ppl
to miss 5 times the first time they see you play
and to know dat they were looking down on you

fine.
i play Sweeper.

then they began to wonder, "Who is this guy?"
exaggeration.
basically, i played better controlling things from behind.
Last man, as many ppl know it.
The ball comes anywhere near the goalpost,
dats where i'll go.
Get the ball, and start a counter attack.
Of course with my superb vision,
most of my counter attacks resulted in goals.
I made many assists.

Sweepers dont really do that.
They just get the ball and whack the ball up.
They play safe.

But being something else is fun isnt it.
So i played something like a point guard in basketball.
A playmaker from behind.
And dat was when my game started to improve.

Ok then. I'll try and play more of the


SWEEPER



The One from Hillary 4 - 8 Dec 2006.

My greatest regret in this OBS course
is not to borrow a freaking camera and bring it along to take pics.
Now, im gonna post this boring post which has no pics.

Oh well, i wont make this so long.
U guys dont have to see completely wad ppl do in OBS anyway.
U can only know wad OBS is about once u have experienced it.

So it was 5 days in which we went "back to basics"
Yeah. The life without the comfort we have at home.
And obviously, the point was to widen ur comfort zone,
to be able to work with anyone, in any situation.

To embark on an Outward Bound journey.

The 100+ of us were separated into watches(groups)
Me and Guo Sheng were feeling sian and all cuz he was in Armstrong
and i was in Hillary.

But we both soon adapted to our new surroundings and friends.
And of course, we had a great deal of fun.
We were quite lucky too.

Armstrong and Hillary did ALL their activities
at the same time, all the time.

On the 4th day, we were officially called Buddy Watches,
embarking on the Sea Expedition together, as
a self proclaimed Armillary/Hillstrong etc.

These 2 watches combined = fun,love,peace and joy man!
So not only did i have friends from Hillary, but Armstrong too.

Btw, Sea Expedition was a kayaling expedition whereby
we rode double kayaks and paddled a cross-island (Ubin)
We woke up as early as 5.30am to get ready and all.
We set off at around 7.30 i suppose.
According to the planning, we were expected to reach our destination at 2pm.

We reached at 12.30pm
Because Armstrong and Hillary just click!
All the jokes we had during the expedition cancelled out the pain
and strain on our arms.
Not to mention sea-ex was a day after land-ex in which we trekked
through perhaps, half of Pulau Ubin.

Hillary was probably the smallest watch at the end of the course.
16 of us in the start.
Suhailah left due to her not feeling well.
Thn on the last night, Sabi, Wilson Lim, Wilson Soh, Sam and Chang Yi (sorry if wrong spelling) left cuz their skool had
an expedition in Australia a day later.
Good Luck on that guys!

Suhailah brought forward an important note before she left.
To have a strong mentality throughout the camp.
No doubt, i perservered through it cuz of ur words. Thnx!

Chang Yi. You are one of those who worked hardest. Not to mention u are a nice guy too. Although Sabi says u are gay. Haha

Sabi. You truly have the Nepalese Gurkha blood in you. I was touched by your ability to endure the whole land-ex, carrying a full back pack, 2 tents, and 2 camping sticks of filled bottles.
You were most helpful, and as a medic, you always looked out for others.

Wilson Lim. A funny character who loves to play jokes and pranks on others and to lighten us up when we felt frustrated. They missed you most when u guys left.

Wilson Soh. You seem so quiet all the time. But inside you is a hardworker. You helped alot with the stores and all, and i appreciate it.

Sam. Congrats, sea-ex IC for the successful sea-ex. HAHA

Zed. You rocker. Ur probably jamming now. Have fun. And are u in contact with Tina? hehehe

Sutina. Go and have a great time with ur family! Dont forget the dedication u made!

Seri. Thnx for supporting me in my battle against the mosquitoes!

Azura. Dun give up so easily! The Helium Pole just needed more time!

Winston the Monk. Waterproof Monk! Thnx for blessing us with good weather in sea-ex. And for controlling the waves. The comic relief throughout the course, for both Hillary and Armstrong. And dun so blur anymore leh!

Keith. Stop your "susu panas" la! Once funny twice lame! Haha. You also remember ur commitment to OBS hor. Dun talk cock only!

Ding Ren. Thnx for excusing me from tent pitching all the time. haha. i really suck in it.

Stanley. Thnx for all the Insect Repellent u provided me all the time. The shoe spray too. And ur commitment to OBS. To stop using Maphack in DotA!!

Louis. Mr. Cool la. Always cool with the situation. So relaxed wan you. Thnx for leading us thru land ex.

And how can i forget
our instructor.

JONATHAN!

You are so inspirational! All the stories u shared. There is not a single one that i will forget! U made us change our attitude in just 5 days. What a work!

Though i know we are not the best Watch that u have taken, i hope u had fun like how I did.

Now i have to put OBS behind and start on homework liao.
Really does make me feel like going back to Ubin.
haha.

The One who is close to OBS

In just a few hours.
Report to Amoy Quee Camp.
Sleep in for the night.
Start OBS the next day.

Yes.
Thats Right.
No Lord of The Rings for me.
Which is seriously very saddening.

Why do i have this feeling
that its gonna be a LONG and quiet
6 days.

I dont socialise with ppl in camps.
At least not dat much before.

And dat shoe i bought,
not gonna bring it :)
its too BEAUTIFUL.

well this is it
no blog posts for at least 5 days.

The One who is feeling sorry and all

damn.

Well earlier in the afternoon,
Muneer accompanied me to Queensway to get a new pair of shoes.
Obviously, i didnt have a clue on which to buy.
And my bargaining sux.

He recommended me this pair of Lotto shoes,
which was really hot on sales.
He claimed he had wanted it for a long time
and dat he would return at night, to buy it.
I bought it.

and well,

we both came back at night.

I came to exchange my size 6.5 to a size 7.

Unfortunately, they could only find a size 7.5,
and it was the last one.
Muneer just had to arrive 5 mins after me
to realize the fact that,
he wouldnt be able to buy the shoes dat he longed for.

My mind, as usual, in stressful times(even in the slightest of stress),
went blank.

I just well, waved, said sorry, and went out of the shop.
I was gonna exit Queensway until i decided to return to find him.
It wasnt dat hard.
I told him dat i could sell my current Lotto to him.
And i, on the other hand, would go on a journey to find a new pair.

Well, he rejected.
Of course he rejected.
What was i thinking.
If i were give the same offer, i would definitely choose to be
Mr. dun worry im fine
and reject the offer.
Accepting it would be make me feel so thick skinned.

If i wanted to change things,
i wud need to borrow a time machine from sumwhere else.
But dat wud be troublesome
cuz have ta report for OBS tmr.

Great
Now im going to OBS without a clear mind.


RARRR!~


The One who's got 2 days left

Yare yare.. 2 days left.

Got my trekking shoes for OBS.
not really trekking shoes.
street soccer shoes actually.
couldnt resist it.
too nice.

anyway. im going back to queensway.
cuz hell,
size 6.5 is a lil small, i just realised.
hope i can exchange w/o receipt
cuz yeah, i aint got no receipt.


and i tot tonight, i can relax and enjoy.

The One who is getting all enthu for OBS

OBS Singapore

4 - 8 December

And only today, i got the news dat my application was accepted.
Thank you OBS.
At least 20 bucks for medical checkup
didnt go to waste.

My application status was left dangling
cuz me and Guo Sheng handed in the forms a few days late.

so today, 6 days from the camp,
we realize dat we were accepted.

this is OBS NCC.
i dont know whether there will be any differences.
but Anis (sec 3 camp trainer) mentioned there was.

the training regime begins

PT in the morning.
tomorrow i shall run a full 2.4km

actually, after i was left waiting for my application status, i lost interest in it.

so yeah, i WAS beginning to think of withdrawing.

but


A ship in harbour is safe,
but that is not what ships are built for.

The One with the new CPU

i got a new CPU on Saturday, 25th.

so why wait until Monday, 27th to post?

obvious isnt it?

theres a hell lot of things to download.
all those plug ins and codecs.
and of course started playing CS and DotA again

Mega Kill Rikimaru
Unstoppable Luna

A good computer does make a difference.

i really need to thank 2 ppl, Marcus and Seroyen.
Pre-dominantly, Seroyen.

Check this out

He surfed through the internet, to get the prices of several CPU parts on sale on Sim Lim,
listed all the options down for me to choose according to my own likings,
accompanied me to Sim Lim Square,
got ALL the parts for me, one by one,
even getting better parts for cheaper prices.
there was lots to buy.

the motherboard,
processor,
RAM,
Graphics Card,
Casing,
and maybe theres more.

He then went on to manually assemble all the parts together.
All by himself.
ok, with me and Marcus doing a lil bit of sai kang.

After the whole CPU set is actually functional,
he installed Windows XP, without having brought with him the CD Key, by retrieving the CD key in a much harder but legal way.

He customized all the settings
and there u have it.
A brand new Computer.

Pentium D,
Dual Channel,
512 MB RAM
80 GB Hard Disk Space,
and much more

$750.

Seroyen,

The One who missed...

I had been carrying this strange feeling..
..that i missed something.

and now,

after almost 24 hours,

i just realised..


..i didnt watch PRISON BREAK yesterday.


NOOOOOO!!... X999

The One who shot 3 with 4

Sorry guys!
No 1st in Singapore wadever shit.
Top 8 in Falling Targets
and SHOULD be Top 10 - 15 in Overall Score.

perhaps this is the best score in maybe 3 to 4 years for GESS.
Yeah, maybe GESS NCC has lost its touch.
But we certainly havent lost the drive.

Thing is, im not as disappointed as how Benny, Luqman and Kai Yuan are.
People who aim high, when they get low results, they suffer a great fall.
Whereas a person like me aims LOW
So that if i get LOW results, i wont be disppointed at all.
Yet
When i get GOOD results, it feels sensational to be above traget!

Well, just my way of thinking.

But im not only, NOT disppointed, i am also happy and satisfied.
I had a good Zeroing round
and with 4 bullets, i hit down 3 targets
compared to
6 bullets, 1 target of Tuesday.

Because of Tuesday's bad performance,
i knew today was the chance to see whether im really worth a marksman badge.
Yep. That 10/10 score i earned LOONG ago was not by luck.

Its just too bad we had to go against Bukit Panjang Govt High
in the first round.
They went on to be Falling Targets champions.

First hour of the day we were overjoyed.
We were about to get a walk through to Semi Finals
cuz Bukit Panjang came late.

DAMN LATE!
in fact, they should be disqualified!

but well, it is meant to be.
they came, they saw, they pawned.. ..us.

Made alot of friends anyway.
And at least we got honoured for making it into top 8


FOR FALLING TARGETS

The One with Exessive Gas in Stomach

K. Currently suffering from excessive gas in stomach.
It hurts pretty bad,
in addition to the irritation in which it makes u feel like passing motion,
but when u try to, its like constipation.

anyway. tmr is the finals for shooting.
A-z is a realistic person.
Winning 1st prize means
going against the toughest of all odds.
Its gonna be hard.
and with this pain im recieving, it'll be harder.
But i always do my best.
However if im really off target, thn my deepest apologies guys.

ONWARD!

A True Underdog Story

Setiawan, Singapore's 3rd Best Shooter, in Indonesia,
We had no reserves,
And i left home with a terrible terrible stomach ache.

Didnt seem like a good day for NCC Shooting Competition.

Seriously, we wasted alot of time.

Reached Nee Soon Camp at 8am.
Waited and waited and waited until 11.30, it was our turn to shoot.
And then 12pm ALL THE WAY to 6pm we waited to find out our results.

We actually wanted to go home.
Perhaps god was testing us?
But we waited, somehow, we were ranked 2nd overall in points.

And yet we had to wait til 7pm until the Central Finals began.

It was a team-based game.
Falling Targets.

4 shooters,
12 targets,
24 rounds,
6 rounds each.

Shoot down all targets as fast as possible with the number of bullets you have.

7pm

I tell you i cudnt see a single target.
Ok maybe i could.
But once i aimed for too long
it seemed to disappear from my vision.
Well, i had 6 rounds,
i onli hit 1 target.
Pathetic, but Luqman, Benny and Kai Yuan covered up for me.
We had onli one target left standing,
and the opponent, Yuying Sec, had 4.

But the real test is on Thursday,
as we pit against the best of East and West districts.

I, who have pulled the team's score down, shall use tomorrow
as a day to find the way of shooting and master it.

Something like dat.

Well, there u have it.
Sometimes all u need is just some pride and faith.
It was because we endured through that long wait, with GESS in mind.

Central District top scorers.


NOBODY EXPECTED IT

The One getting a new PC

Only 2 years and i have ta get a new PC.

I feel i did something wrong.

The One who missed the Transvestite

NOTE

i didnt include our encounter with the transvestites in Changi because of ONE reason.

I cycled passed him/her without noticing the boobs.

AT ALL.

And theres a reason why its called the A-z Top 5.

But to share with those who werent present,

Yeah,

we cycled past a transvestite who showed off his/her


BOOBS

The One who went to 3G Chalet

Alrite
Lets go thru it!
A-z's list of top 5 moments in 3G Chalet.


number 5
The Missing Key

Yea. 16 of us were renting bikes for night cycle.
and a few got themselves a lock and key so that we can park at Changi Village and eat supper.
5 dollars per missing key, additional 5 dollars per missing lock.
Sebastian: I lost the key.
So while i was busy playing Marvel vs Capcom
so many of them searched thru the chalet for the key.
They sailed the toilet bowls,
they dug thru the rubbish bin,
they wrestled through bed sheets.
And when all hope seems lost, the next morning, Sebas found it in his wallet.
Anti climax, but still a great moment.


number 4
"Shu Anne kena langgar by car!!"

Ok. So we were night cyling, and we were on our way back.
the 16 was separated into 2.
The front ones cycled a lil too fast.
I was in front.
So when we reached a bus stop to wait for them, we realized dat they were taking an awful long time.
So me and Chi Jie volunteered to back track and find them.
Of course, he was outclassed by my speed. jk
it was a tough ride, going against gravity.
I was confident they were at the bus stop before us.
But they werent there. Same case for the next bus stop
So i was getting a lil worried.
When i finally saw Jervis, the one in red.
Well, they were stuck there, Jiayi's bicycle chain went out of position and Shu Anne fell down.
Knowing that they were safe, i sped back to where the front group was, shouting, "Shu Anne kena langgar by car!"
Sufi, Eugene, Sebas, Yong Li and others were like, "HUH!??!?!"
Priceless.
Sorry Shu Anne!


number 3
Yong Li falling down 6 times in morning cycle.

Sometime in the morning, 5am - 6am,
a few of us wanted to cycle more.
Joshua just learnt how to cycle
and Danny missed out earlier.
So it sounded like a good idea.
It was an 8 man trip.
With Yong Li falling down at least 5 times, overcycling into the grass and going down the wrong steps.
Comic relief.


number 2
Para Para Blackout.

We went to the arcade on 2nd day afternoon.
I didnt play anything there.
Arcade is evil.
EVILLL i tell you.
So Puay Leng wanted to play the dance dance game thingy.
Enthu liao.
Ready to bring out all the moves.
GAME START!
3 seconds later
*Blackout*
GAME OVER..
Anti climax, but hilarious to thhhflemax.


numero UNO!
Horror movie!

Shud be around midnight.
A horror movie was showing on Channel 8/U.
Most of us were cramped in one chalet watching the movie.

There was an intimate kissing scene sumwhere in the middle.
Apparently, Yong Li pictured the scene the wrong way and actually tot it was scary. He gave a sudden jerk.

Mun Wah's countless failed attemps to scare ppl,
Tiffany and Jia Yan's (and mine) shrieking,
Jervis's constant looking down on every frightening scene,
This moment is my choice of best moment in 3G Chalet!

Sentosa - Pasir Ris

Last minute blogging b4 i leave for 3G chalet.

NCC outing to Sentosa was yesterday
and though it was mainly last min pplanning,
we had a hell of a good time.

it was a 12 dollar package trip.
We were thn discounted to a price of 8 dollars per ticket.
3 places

Fort Siloso
Cinemania
Carslberg Sky Tower

Fort Siloso - well, essential for NCC cadets to learn about all the wartime history in WW2. Bought this cute lil keychain from the souvenir store.

Cinemania - my first time. Probably the main attraction of the trip.
3 rides, the first one was super thrilling. 2nd one was rough. 3rd one was fast.

Sky Tower - one of the newer attractions of Sentosa. True enuff, had a GOOD view of Sentosa and the islands beyond. And a lil peak at Singapore Skyline. Haze still around though.

and yeah. after dat, some swimming at Siloso Beach. Thn Seah Im food centre for Black Pepper Chicken Rice + Bandung.

now for 3G chalet

meeting the peepz at 1.30, Tiong Mac.
hope this chalet exceeds all expectations


SAYONARA!

The One who got drenched in the Rain

this was the plan:

1) go to mosque and attend prayers
2)take 131/124 to Heights to find a missing key
3)FIND the key. (80% chance of success)
4) go to SAFRA and play 4 dollars worth of arcade
5) GO HOME


this was wad happened:

1) reached mosque
2) found out that i didnt bring EZ Link. And no coins for bus fare
3) Rained HEAVILY
4)took taxi to Heights = $2.60
5) left with 2x 20cent and 1x 1dollar coin
6) searched for the key
7) couldnt find key
8) took 124 with a busfare of 1 dollar since 40 cents wasnt enuff
9) left with 40 cents
10) reached home, soaking wet


TOTAL AMMOUNT $ WASTED = $3.60
TOTAL AMOUNT TIME WASTED = priceless


PRICELESS!

The One who came late

Yea. So i came late fer E.Maths.
Reason being oversleeping.
Well, not really.
I was doing some Bleach stuff.
My very first Animation Music Video (AMV)
on Zaraki Kenpachi.

And so i tot i wud the the latest to arrive.
When Sufi appeared 5 mins after me with semi purple hair.

Fashionably late huh.

Well, not long after i got home.
There was a fcuking loud knock on my door.
Apparently, they tot my whole family was deaf.
Either that, or they were really angry people.

Turned out to be 2 kids.
Visting for "Hari Raya"
My father opened the door, said no, and closed it.
I heard a soft,"Cannot come in nvrm. Collection onli"
That being said in Malay
and Collection meaning coming to houses for green packets.

How rude.

Even as a small kid.
I NEVER imagined myself going around,
knocking on the doors of who knows who
saying that its Hari Raya season
and indirectly saying
"Fool, i want some money"

This kid made it direct.
He SAID he was on collection.

They werent even in hari raya clothes.
Singlets and black jersey?
Sweating like who knows wad?
Asking for money?


WHAT THE HELL?

Footdrill!!

Alot of footdrill today.
Firstly took Part B's for footdrill.
They have made ALOT of improvement since a few trainings ago,
which i am pretty happy about.
What i'm not satisfied
is the fact that
we are onli training the same 15 ppl over and over again.

Come on

Who would be attracted to join NCC by watching 15 ppl march in a platoon?

For ur info 15 is considered very little.

In fact, its not even 15.

15 came for training.
Onli 10 did footdrill.

Well after training was footdrill for NCOs.
I didnt expect us to do THAT well.
After all, we havent done it for months now.
But just now
was MAGIC!

To tell you the truth it was near perfect.
Well, somebody by the name of Rahim
just had to turn to the back
when the command was really to turn to the right.
Well i wont be so arrogant
but that was the best piece of footdrill we have made since a very long time.


THE FEELING!

Inter Class Soccer

So in the end, favourites 3B were eventual champions.
And 3F took the title of underdogs, making their way to an unexpected match up in the finals.

Kudos to 3H for putting up a great performance.
3H is a really supportive class.
And 3I, tough luck, getting kicked out by 3F.
3F may have won by single lucky goal,
but luck is always part of the game.

So other than naming the Champions and runners up, shudnt they announce those players who have produced moments of magic in that field?

I will, based on my opinion.

Golden Ball(MVP)
A really hard decision to make. But it all comes down to who influnced his team to win the most. And out of 3 names, to me dat person is Arnold 3H for scoring 3 goals and assisting 2.
Others wud be Setiawan 3F and Mateen and Riyaz 3B.

Golden Boot(Top Scorer)
A title which i held for 20 minutes.
Im REALLY not sure who scored most.
All i know is Arnold 3H scored 3
Kian Leong 3H Kannan 3I scored 2
Riyaz and Mateen scored a few.

Safe Hands(Best Goalie)
Faisal 3B
Well i dont think he conceded any.
He certainly didnt have to touch the ball that much.
The 3F goalie, Zhen Yi i think, also played an awesome game.
So many saves from him.
I wud have given him the title if he had played more games.
Ling Zhen 3H shud be applauded too.

Versitility(Best Defender)
My self created title.
Well defenders rarely get the credit.
Setiawan 3F is my top favourite.
He is the reason 3F went so far.
Followed by Yen Weng 3B.
Not only did he cause problems to wingers, he scored the winning goal to the final match and won his team the championship.

Best Newcomer(??)
This is to those faces whom u rarely or never seen kicking a ball but made a great impact today/yesterday.
Zhen Yi 3F. Goalie. Like i said, so many saves.
Hairul 3I. Scored 2 goals, knocking 3G out.

thats all the titles i can think about.
gotta go TeeVee now.


ONWARD GESSIANS!

FTE Results

quite surprised with my results.
didnt expect to get 29 in class?
i tot id do much worst?
it says here, "PROMOTED TO SEC4 EXPRESS"
thank god.

had Inter-Class soccer today.
Proud to announce i was top scorer for 10 mins.
Until Eugene 3F scored 1
and Kannan 3I scored 2.
wait.
means i was top scorer for 20 mins?
well, doeant really matter cuz 3G is out already.

but i'm not so sad.
can see how strong out opponents are.
we can be considered quite unlucky.
But sometimes losing by stupid goals is just irritating?!?!
oh well, tmr will be the semi finals and finals.

3B, 3H, 3I, 3F

3F is hanging on
3B has the teamwork and skills
3H has the speed and drive.
3I has the brains?
kidding
3I are all rounded and pack a punch.

seriously i dont know who will win but for some reason
i have a feel for 3H.
dunnoe la.
i just wish i cud be there la.


GAARRR..!

1 Syawal

As usual, the big big Hari Raya prayer first thing in the morn.
No doubt, mosque was full.
Ppl shaking hands, hugging and apologizing and all after prayers.
A sight found onli on this day.

The spice crackers were finished even before any1 came.
I happen to find them addictive.

My Australian relatives came by.

MONEY COME MONEY GO!

Hari Raya??

Break Fast is at 6.52pm today.
Only a matter of minutes till the official end of fasting.
Not really satisfied by how i spent today.
2pm - 6pm sleeping.

must've been tired from Battlefield Tour.
Seriously i expected much more from it.
Going out to Geylang


TONIGHT

Last Day

5am in the morn.
Woke up at 3am to watch Real Madrid v Barcelona.
And i tot Barca were the ones bound to win 2 - 0.

Anyways, now eating for my last day of fasting.
Tmr is Hari Raya already.
Aint dat fun this year cuz straight after Hari Raya is 2 days of skool.

Well, yeah today is Battlefield Tour.
Changi Museum or something
and not to mention


JOHORE "MONSTER GUN"

Sunday, October 22, 2006

My my..
a post draught in my blog.
Well people like me arent that interested in posting exam results on blogs anyway.

But to tell you the truth,
i am keen to let you know that ALL students in 3G are going to Year 4 EXPRESS NEXT YEAR!!
so NOW we can start worrying about class jerseys and all.
however i do have a feeling nobody's gonna pay.

Anyways,
it has already been almost one month since fasting month started.
And today, (12.15 AM, Sunday)
will be the second last day of fasting for this year.
Without a doubt there is a mixed feeling in most Muslim's heart.

that exciting feeling that Hari Raya is 2 days away and on top of that, all you can eat plus green packets.
but that safe and secure feeling of being protected by god will be gone.
that holy presence will be missing again for one year.

so at the end of the day, we ask ourselves.
have we used this holy month to the maximum of our benefits.
for me, the answer is definitely no.
inevitably.
but a stronger religious feeling now resides in my heart.
and i hope it remains for a long time come.

well, ive got 2 more days.
wonder what i'll do.


BATTLEFIELD TOUR ON MONDAY

Sunday, October 15, 2006

Gd DAY Mayte!!

today is a long anticipated day for me.
my relatives from Australia have supposedly arrived in Singapore at 2 am this morning.
hope they had a safe journey

they will be living at my aunt's house
for their time here, around 1 month.
this is the second time they have come back to Singapore for Hari Raya.
I will be visiting them in a few hours time and i'm really excited.
there are so many things to chat about.
just hope they dont ask about results though.
hehe.

a little bit more on them, my nephews,
they were borned in Singapore
and then migrated to Perth, Australia, some years back.
they've been living there since then
and have returned quite a few times.

They are probably the closest relatives i have and know.
I really envy them for being able to live in Australia.

NCOs

first training as a full-pledged NCO yesterday.
According to CLTs, it ran smoothly
and it was a good first attempt.

Well, im happy about it.
but there sure are ALOT of things to work on.

Part B's (sec2) marching really disappointed me.
they did much better before.
but obviously they are still not in the mood for NCC yet.
its only the first training after a long break.
so its normal.
but there are things dat are not caused by this.
they dont seem lazy to march properly.
rather, they seem so inexperienced and blur.
as if they dont know what to do.

well, we have 2 months till sec 1 orientation.
till then, we'll have to stress on footdrill all the way.


AIM FOR PERFECTION!

Girls + Soccer = ?

Been seeing alot of girls playing soccer these days.
Specifically, at SAFRA.
Yesterday was an ALL-GIRLS team.
Today was mixed.

Its rare to see a girl dribble the ball so fast, with such skill.
It feels as if she is better than you.
Even rare to see girls going up against boys,
in a game that is so aggressive.

Seriously, as much as i LOVE soccer,
girls are meant for many other things.
You want to play a sport?
why not badminton? or swimming?
pool?
bowling?
netball?
volleyball?
basketball even?
You ppl dont look good with street soccer shoes, stopping the ball with ur CHEST, and heading the ball here and there.

I'm not being sexist.
But i'm against girls playing soccer.
But by all means those who love it, play it and have as much fun as you can.
This is only my personal opinion.

But i gotta admit,
those that were playing today were damn fine.

My friend came along,
saw the court filled with girls.
First reaction,


NEXT TEAM!

Haze and Mosquitos

the haze is back.
so are the mosquitos

and as i was tearing my way back from the mosque
i was also scratching my neck which suffered 2 massive blows (bites)
and one more on my arm.

not to mention that these are new editions onto my collection of 7.

wait...


..could it be?


mosquitos thrive in hazy weather???


maybe.


well, played soccer today.
yes even though i was fasting
"some" ppl broke fast cuz they cudnt take it
i wont mention who.

but I, Abdul Aziz am proud to announce that i survived playing
soccer under the hot hot sun, in hazy weather, barefooted
and still not break my fast illegaly.


WELL DONE!

Monday, October 09, 2006

The War has ended... for now.

such delight after the end of last paper Bio just now
but the happiness ends sumwhere near for me.
i will definitely resent the days ahead.

happy?
yes.
exams are over.
why not?

good results?
no.
spoils the mood
what if i have to take combined sciences next year?
leave my current class?
even if not, worst of all, i wud have wasted much time on pure Sciences this year.

drop a science subject?
even worse.
future do wad?
accountancy?
im tired of that.
not to mention i flopped that paper too

right now...

..i just need..

SOCCER..

I Dream : Leann Rimes vs Taufik Batisah

CONFIRM!!
Leann Rimes travel to the future,
steal the song
and sing in 2001.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tq0lyaBsHyY

kidding.
seems to be some kind of conspiracy here.
the song I Dream
was supposedly written for the finalists of Singapore Idol
and was to be honoured to the winner.

sadly
Leann Rimes sang it in 2001.
making the song unoriginal
and arising question marks towards the person who 'wrote' the song.
i read it on the papers.

they said Leann Rimes sang an almost similar version

see this video

what the hell
its exactly the same

i dunnoe wad to comment.
but


I DREAM..

INHALE...

aaahhh..
fresh air.
this is how i love Singapore.
PSI 33.
Improved alot hasnt it.

Biology paper tomorrow.
they gave us a weekend and i misused it.
Slept and LANed.
i studied nuts.

All i know is Homeostasis is the maintenence of..
k i studied nothing.
at all


FREEDOM!!

Saturday, October 07, 2006

wow. so many ppl getting married today.
went out of house.
saw a wedding car parked outside.
waiting at bus stop,
a wedding car passed by.
inside bus on the way to Paradiz,
saw another wedding car.
just now, at safra,
another wedding car.
could have been the oddest wedding car ive seen
a red Chevrolet.

2 wedding dinners at Safra's Pioneer Restaurant.
Anything held there is super grand.
Confirm high class the kind of people.

Anyway the haze isnt getting any better.
Or maybe it did a little bit.
I still feel eye irritation.
And i cud hardly see the Singapore Skyline just now.
Like i said. have to bear with it.
Asthma ppl please dun go out too much.
and dun think being inddors in air-conned places is good too.

haze air + air con air = bad bad air.

and i finally completed Crisis Zone.
Some arcade shooting game.
completed all 3 stages plus bonus stage.
2 tokens.
the last token wasted.
had to use it in order to complete bonus stage.


RANKING 6th!!

My Virgin EYES!!!

I swear the haze is irritating.
Dunnoe if you ppl have noticed it yet.
But i just noticed the intensity of the haze last night.
While Iskandar claimed to have noticed a "change in atmosphere"
a few weeks ago.
I tought he lied.

Well, it certainly didnt make walking easy.
While others can simply ignore it like nothing was there,
a few of us walking to Hill Lock (Bukit Purmei)
got some eye irritation
my friend with Asthma had to cover his mouth and nose
so walking around these days arent that healthy
but exams are ending anyway
so if u wanna kill yourself go ahead.

wait.

shudnt you do that before the exams?

well. i dunnoe
for all i know this haze is a result of major deforestaion in Indonesia.
Well, not the first time it happened.
But little by little this is gonna affect the environment quite badly.
News say it'll end in 2 days.
Just have to bare with it.

Talking about last night.
It was Chinese and Indians(Hindus)
Back to back
Chinese were out for some Lantern Festival or is it Mooncake
which i tot was days ago.
Hill Lock was filled with kids and parents having some fun under the full moon.
While Hindus were at the open field beside Radin Mas Primary for some celebrations of some sort?
All this, while Muslim Malays and Indians go to Mosque for prayers.

So i guess, really nobody was at home last night?
really was a lively night. Loved it.

As for me, i didnt really pray.
Went to play soccer with some Henderson peepz at Hill Lock
MY FIRST DOZE OF SOCCER AFTER AROUND 1 MONTH.
hey. its the fasting month. u cant see me running around in the day.
so the night is my opportunity.
my chance
my saviour

we knocked out 4 teams in a row.
which was AMAZING
with ISKANDAR as goalkeeper.
upfront was me, Jaarvis and Azhar(not my father)
I didnt know Jaarvis played that well.
And Azhar was as good as usual.
Me? BAGUUUUUUUS (good)

funny thing was this super gay strong team was playing.
I was 101% sure we were gonna lose.
We started the match.
2 mins later
We Won.
Shortest game of that night.

3 cheers to soccer.


UFOOOOOOO!!!

EL Paper 2 down

And yet another paper down today.
EL Paper 2
that sums up everything that we have to do for English for the year.

The passage was easy to understand.
And the questions werent too difficult.
But there was awfully too many 1 mark questions.
And since no half marks will be given for partially correct answers,
if u screw up in a 1 mark question,
there will be no pity marks.
and since there are so many such questions,
a person may fail due to this.

thats why my 1 mark answers were as long as those u wud see in a 3 mark answer.

Prevention is better than cure.

Even when they asked for one reason, i stated 2.
Is dat suppoased to be okay?

Well, trying hard to recall all POA solutions.
Emaths 2? Forget it.
Not gonna pass it anyway.
So tonight will be POA all the way.

Trial Balance, Balance Sheet, Cash Book, General Journals, Trading Account, Profit Loss Account, Bank Reconciliation, Bank Account, Balance Day Adjustments, Book of original entry.


ONE NIGHT




50

Finally!!
50th post of this blog!
goddamned, i'm a slow blogger.

it wez the long awaited Geography paper ytday.
Followed by a well-anticipated Chemistry paper.
well
both were long awaited.
but im glad to say Geography turned out okay
for the first time, i feel a possibility of passing after handing up a Geog assignment.
i was all smiles when Benny reminded me of reality.
its true.
FOr Geog, we always think we would pass.
but in the end
the marking schemes were different,
standards were high
and we "unexpectedly" fail the paper.
well, only thing to do is hope for the best isnt it.

im still hitting myself for the stupid mistake i made in Chem paper.

Name the reducing agent in this process

I answered Carbon Monoxide.

CORRECT ANSWER!!


..until


I cancelled it and put Calcium Oxide instead.
why?
because the next line was something like:
Carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and nitrogen are the waste products in this process..

so i figured if carbon monoxide was a waste product,
it wudnt be reducing agent wud it?

Naive thinking

though that question was worth onli one mark
i think it will be a costly one.
i scored 50% for Chem last semester.
i cant afford to lose marks like that.
again,


HOPE FOR THE BEST!

Monday, October 02, 2006

Return

For some reason, i wasnt able to access blogger for some time.
If u had followed my tagboard, i was discussing on SG Idol
but no time for that now.

ive been reading up on Chemistry for the past hour.
Still, nothing has completely entered my brain.
I dont know.
Shud i continue on Chem or use the night to study Geog.
Im really afraid of tmr's papers.

I barely passed Chem last semester.
Passing it now wud be some sort of an impossibility at my current state.
Geography. Well. Not many pass it anyway.
But if i want any chance of passing Humanities,
i wud have to score at least 40% for this paper.
Also seemingly impossible.

Anyway, did SS and Emaths1 just now
Emaths was not as hard as i tot.
But passing?
HELL NO.
Im trying to say that i wont get lower than 10 marks.

SS. I just didnt have enough time.
My last question, structured essay, was 4 lines long.
Level 1 answer i think.
That wud give me.. 2 marks?
Damn it. I focused too much on Source based qns.
ANd i dun thiink i did them correctly too.


DEAD?

Singapore Idol

well i cant really watch it
cuz i have to make it to the mosque everynight for prayers
not really complaining though

at least i get to watch 20 mins of it at SAFRA nearby.
i end my prayers at around 9pm
walk to SAFRA and reach at 9.10
so i watch it there live on the big screen for 20 mins

good enough to see who wins.

i nvr really took sides.
halfway through the spectaculars
i predicted Hady and Jon to be there.
but by watching the highlights of ytday's showdown
i wud say Hady did a better job.
both on their chosen songs and the new song.

so i predict Hady will win
though Jon really got some decent voters.

whoever wins
not as if their gonna go to World Idol anyway.
nor last for more than 2 years?
come to think of it,


WAD HAPPENED TO TAUFIK?

Sunday, September 24, 2006

Beginning Of Ramadan

so it has begun
the long awaited (??) fasting month of the Muslim calender.
its onli 12.30 pm now and my stomach is complaining
for yer info, break fast is around 7pm

and did you realize
break fast sounds like breakfast!?!?
did you!?!
IRONIC LEH!

k obviously im trying to waste time.
but actually. dats not the true way to fast.
you shudnt just sleep around doing nothing,
waiting for sunset to arrive.

the fasting month is also knowned as the holy month of the year.
all evil spirits are tied up. (dun fear the 7th month anymore; isit still on?)
sins will be washed away
even the smallest good doings, will be recognized greatly.
so basically, it is the time to act like an angel
and hopefully, after one month of doing so,
you will find your true self and continue acting like how u have been!

as for me, im gonna try me best not to skip Subuh(morning prayer)
anymore,
not to delay all 5 of my prayer times
cut down on vulgarities
help others in need
and all the good stuff u can think about.

i cant blog much now
got Chemistry to study.
and hopefully on this holy month,
god will hear my call for help
and help me in this battle against education.


ONWARD!

PAIN

My IPOD Shuffle(however u spell it)

just died.
i dont know wad the fish happened to it.
it can be charged.
it can be detected in the computer.
it suffers no tampered buttons.

IT
JUST
WONT
FREAKING
WORK

Next

MY HANDPHONE

okay, not the fanciest of all handphones
some random sony ericsson shit
and its second hand anyway
but fuck
i bought it for 130 bucks
who would give me 130 bucks?
you? the person who visits my blog?
this marks the 3rd time i lost contact with my phone
and the 2nd time i lost it

meaning there was once i left it in the taxi,
kept calling and calling it,
and recovered it.

so i got screwed.
but i wasnt just gonna let it be.
i rode 3 times, the bus that i lost the phone in.
and i reported it at the interchange.
sadly, it was raining and i brought an umbrella
even more sadly, i left the umbrella in the bus.

and..so i got screwed
freaking hellishly, that umbrella was my fathers favourite.


dats not all.


MY TELEVISION (not exactly mine)

is not working properly. both of em.
the first one suffers some kind of "mechanical hiccups"
while ur keenly watching some animals mating on some documentary,
the screen turns black while emitting some irritating sound.

the second one
SOMEHOW has to preload.

September 11

September 11th 2001

Believe - Yellowcard

Think about the love inside the strength of heart
Think about the heroes saving life in the dark
Climbing higher through the fire, time was running out
Never knowing you weren't going to be coming down alive
But you still came back for me
You were strong and you believed

Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Be strong. Believe.
Be strong. Believe.

Think about the chance I never had to say
Thank you for giving up your life that day
Never fearing, only hearing voices calling out
Let it all go, the life that you know, just to bring them down alive
And you still came back for me
You were strong and you believed

Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Be strong. Believe.


Again today, we take into our hearts and minds those who
perished on this site five years ago, and also those who came
to toil in the rubble to bring order out of chaos, to help us
make sense of our despair

Wanna hold my wife when I get home
Wanna tell the kids they'll never know how much I love to see them smile
Wanna make a change right here right now
Wanna live a life like you somehow
Wanna make your sacrifice worthwhile

Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Be strong. Believe.


Think about the love inside the strength of heart
Think about the heroes saving life in the dark
Think about the chance I never had to say
Thank you for giving up your life that day

The world will little note, nor long remember what we say
here, but it can never forget what they did here


PEACE

Phase 2

right now, packing my bag for tmr's camp
NCOs Course, better knowned as Leadership Course.
not too long, 2 days 1 night.

shud have nothing to fear in this camp.
its mainly specialization trainings
meaning, an Administrative Sergeant would learn admin stuff,
Quartermaster would learn logistics stuff,
and things like that

i dont really know wad im up against actually
i dunnoe wad an Assistant Platoon Sergeant(APS) has to train on.
Additionally, my APS post isnt confirmed yet.
which gives me this big fear of screwing up.

but i dont think i'll be IC of any big shit
and as long as i give standard,
pay attention, do things the right way,
think before i speak and do,
i shud be leaving the camp with a smile.

It has been a great and long fight for this APS appointment.
Ive been holding on to it for quite a time.
Appointment list was pinned on the board and for a moment i felt relieved.
But now, they reannounce dat the the appointments are tentative.
Just have to keep on fighting

So wad REALLY to expect?
Talks, lessons, field cooking, cheering for food,
sleeping damn late, waking up early,
sharing of toilets


AND THE LIST GOES ON

CROCS RULE

The irony of getting killed by something you once lived to protect


Stephen Robert "Steve" Irwin (22 February 1962 - 4 September 2006)
was an Australian naturalist, wildlife expert and television personality. He was best known for the programme The Crocodile Hunter, an unconventional wildlife documentary series he hosted with his wife, Terri Irwin.


"I consider myself a wild-life warrior. My mission is to save the world's endangered species." - the aforementioned


Unfortunately, on September 4th 2006, he was fatally pierced in the chest by a stingray barb while off in the Great Barrier Reef in Queensland, Australia. He was filming for an upcoming documentary series which would have featured his 8 year old daughter. Irwin was pronounced dead at noon. He was not killed by the sting itself, but by from a puncture through his heart.


Several Australian news websites went down due to high web traffic and talk-back radio experienced a high volume of callers expressing their grief, commemorating his passion and exuberance.


Australian Prime Minister, John Howard, among many other politicians, expressed his "shock and distress" at the death, saying that "Australia has lost a wonderful and colourful son.” Steve was an ambassador of Australia's pride in wildlife and most importantly, for being himself.


It is the irony
of getting killed by something you once lived to protect.


But loved ones are sure that Steve passed away with no regrets.


Steve was a great fan of Singapore Zoo, considering it a sister institution with the Australia Zoo.

NCC Reflection

Its been like 2 and a half years.
of what?
I wudnt say suffering. People before us have suffered more.
I'd say sweat and pain, overshadowed by fun, joy and laughter.
Joining NCC was definitely the right choice for me.
What is there to regret?
The push ups done?
Push ups are a good exercise.
The tekan sessions?
Those were great bonding activities.
Without them, camps wudnt have been memorable.
The boring trainings?
Wrong. They're not boring.


Soccer after training.
Illegal gatherings outside school, eating MAMEE snacks,
Joining forces to suan Mr Beh,
Joking with NCOs,
Enjoying the sun with footdrill,

Theres more than meets the eye.

One by one, we faced the many challenges.

We survived through series of Annual Camps,
Starred in Footdrill Competition,
but of course cocked up in ROD.

Im telling you.
What we're doing now is picking ourselves up.
We believe tomorrow will be a better day.
Whats the next project?
Sec 1 Orientation?
Bring it on!

And as i type. I realize that i am just one step away from being an NCO. By right, i already am.
Just have to go through Leadership Course Phase 2.
Appointments are already out and pinned on the board.
They were more or less expected results.

Passing of ROD

Anybody who watched our ROD
even an idiot
would know dat it sucked
And because of dat i feel cheated of months of practices,
moneys of money,
nights of sleepless..
..nights.


It wasnt dat bad actually
Things went according to schedule
And everything actually looked good
but the performance
except for Part B performance
was below mediocre.


Part C's performances was hugely disappointing compared to last year's.
Part A, being first timers, cocked up big time.
Part B was the very most impressive.


Other than performances,
everything else was really okay.
REALLY.


The hall looked stunning,
lightings were well controlled


ITS JUST TOO BAD
its inevitable to judge ROD by the performances
and they sucked!
We had problems getting the wireless mics.
And to make things worst, one of the Part As, dropped the mic in his performance,
which was the first
It broke, leaving us with 2 wireless mics
which we just dumped on some random box backstage.


The performances couldnt be heard
and the songs played werent too clear too
WHY?
because we were playing the sound from a laptop and just amplifying it with a mic.
WHY?
The sound system was down.
WHY?
Cos we suck? And our ROD just isnt meant to be?

Maybe not.

At least im proud of my NCC Video which played on the big screen for 5 mins.
For the first and last time in the whole function,
people had 5 mins of laughter and amusement.
It was the onli highlight that received a decent applause.

Victor was downright retarted.
Being an MC [ (emcee) wadever it is]
He just had to go for OBS the week before
and during ROD itself, he left halfway for guitar class.
leaving him with 2 hours to come up with speeches.
Check this out


*backstage*

Aziz: U have finale speech?
Victor: U wan me to do a finale speech?
Aziz: Duh.!! *omg*
Victor: Okay... *goes on stage*

Victor: That marks the end of our ROD performance. Now u may procede to the canteen to MAKAN! EH NO! This year we're doing it at the hall!


lol


Fortunately, food was nice.
Some kind of seafood fried rice.
Lemon chicken
Aziz = Chicken for life
So Aziz loved the food.
Fruit punch.
Good good.


So after that we did saikang, cleaning up the whole hall.
Took a lesser than expected time to complete.
Dismissed at 9pm, reflecting,


DEFINITELY NOT THE BEST ROD
