Hey, sorry for not posting regularly. Been so tired everyday after coming back from army. Incase any of you been wondering, where have I been posted to, it's very complicated due the long term which I myself ain't quite sure of.
OETI (Ordnance Engineering Training Institute) as ARMT (Armour Technician) as Turret Technician.
Confused right? Haha, basically, I am a Technician for Tanks, fixing and maintaining the guns part only. Anyhow, I will try to update more in future about my work.
Anyhows, the video below is a local film that won the 2nd place award from Singapore Film Festival. Both guys and girls that either been through or never been true in the army will realise that's so very true. Those who don't understand chinese can read the subtitles. I think that the director or writer makes the film even more better by replacing girls to fit into guys shoes.
Last week, during my leave, I went to Sentosa to catch the last view of the musical fountains. Sadly they already had their last shows on the 26th of March. Never again will I see the fountain show. In replacement of the old musical fountains, Sentosa introduced 'Songs of the Sea'. I believe many of you know that, but I do hope I can find the time to go down and see that show. I have attached 2 videos and 1 silde photos of my visit in Sentosa.

Hey all, guess what? I am now officially a Private! Woohooo! I POP (Pass Out Parade) on 13th March at 3.30pm. I am so freaking happy because after 3 months of being a recuit, lowest life form has been a history to me.
Right now I am on leave from 14th till 25th, my posting will be known on the 23rd. Hopefully I will get to post to unit that have better life. And unfortunately, I got arrowed for guard duty on the 21st (Wednesday) as a reserve party. Which means those who were meant to be doing their duty happens to fall sick or taken MC, I have to stand-in for that guy. Sheesh. What to do? Got arrowed means LL have to do it.
For those of you wishes to see my POP photos, I uploaded some photos up. And also 2 video clips of the parade. Including the most 'Famous' 9 Div Infantry Roar Dance.
I happen to catch the movie '300' yesterday night. It was AWESOME! A fantastic film with a good historical background not forgetting excellent digital effects! It's a true story dated 480 B.C that Leonidas, a Spartan king defended his land against a million Persian evaders with only 300 spartans warriors. Not forgetting with the help of Athenians help which history mentioned was only 6700 Athenians help. But movie didn't show much to the exact similarities as what history had said but I guess the movie was made to show how little Leonidas have for his defence line. In the end, Leonidas's man fought bravely with great courage and skills, but due to their disadvantage, the enermies were too many and Leonidas fall into the enermy's arrows and died. I think the story was really a very inspiring one, that one thing I learned from this movie was that no matter how hard or how strong your difficulites may seems like, you have to fight or defeat it with all your might till you breathe your last....
As stated, here are the photos and videos of my POP...

Hello again, I don't really know why everytime when I get to book out, I always waited for the last minute to blog before I book in. I mean that I got so much time since thursday night till now but everytime I have to wait for the last minute to blog.
Which means tomorrow morning my company gets to go to Singapore Discovery Center. Seriously I don't know why we have to go there, could be tour or activity, but it was indeed a blessing because at least I got to book out on thursday night (A Levels on the next day) and return back on Monday (Singapore Discovery Center). =)
Indeed it was a blessing and I really appreciate it alot. Thank God! And to imagine that I have left 8 more days before I POP (Passing Out Parade) which adds more excitment to me.
My weekends were great, as I get to mingle around with YLM. Hmm, I didn't get to attend any meetings since I enlisted, and finally I got the chance to attend one of the meetings which was also another blessing from God. I really do feel that I am truely blessed and loved by God in his ways of making my Life so blessed. And I would like to say, "Thank you my Lord for taking me under your wings".
The rest of my "off days" I did spend it wisely, either with family or my girlfriend. But there's a disadvantage, whenever I get more "Off Days" from army and stayed at home, the more I feel like not going back into Army. I am serious, this kind of feeling is kind of sad to me, to leave my bed behind, to leave my comfort zone.
But right now, before I POP, I would like to ask you, my friends, to pray for me, pray that I can have strength and endurance for my 24KM Route march this coming Friday. I really really feel like it's a mental torture now, but will get to face the physical torture on that day itself. So therefore, please, pray for me...
Till then, till I book out on Saturday (10th March) if I got to book out, I will definately come back and blog about my 24km march. See you guys again real soon. =)
P.S - I have attached some nice videos of "Borat" one of my favourite TV shows that I am currently addicted to. He is from Kazakhstan with a weird accent when he speak english, please enjoy his Sexual and Pervert and Nonsense way of being a Journalist. I added his website to my link too. Enjoy!

& Joke Of The Day
A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is finishing up her shower, when the doorbell rings.
After a few seconds of arguing over which one should go and answer the doorbell, the wife gives up, quickly wraps herself up in a towel and runs downstairs.
When she opens the door, there stands Bob, the next-door neighbor. Before she says a word, Bob says, "I'll give you $800 to drop that towel you have on."
After thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel and stands naked in front of Bob. After a few seconds, Bob hands her $800 and leaves. Confused but excited about her good fortune, the woman wraps herself back up in the towel and goes back upstairs.
When she returns to the bathroom, her husband asks from the shower, "Who was that?"
"It was Bob the next-door neighbor," she replies.
"Great," the husband says, "Did he say anything about the $800 he owes me?"
Moral of the story: If you share critical information pertaining to credit and risk with your stakeholders in time, you may be in a position to prevent avoidable exposure
