BP WLNY Christmas BBQ 2008

Had a full and busy day yesterday (Sat).

Woke up at 0600 hours, went to SK to pick CT and his friend, went down to FTPS. For the Zone Insp and NCOC POP 2008.

Zone Inspection and POP took up the whole morning till 1300 hours when i really had to leave. To go home, rest a while and went for my RT (IPPT test) in the afternoon.

And there's a event going on at my void deck. Noisy, till i left home early and went to camp super early, stunning the guard 2IC. I mean, RT starts at 1600 and i was there from 1430 hours.

Nothing much about the test, except that i was the first in line, and i failed, meaning, Welcome to phase 2!!

Went back home, rest a bit till everyone starts calling me, asking me where the hell i was, and asking my help to drive this and that.

Yep. The WLNY BP Christmas BBQ party. Organised by auntie E, ZX, AM and SH. Me?? i was the "arrowed" driver for this occasion. To bring all the food, drinks, charcoal, utensils down to the assigned place, and it was a super last minute arrow.

Here's the photos taken at the BBQ party.


At the BBQ pit.

Phase 2

All i can say to myself now...

Welcome to Phase 2!!!

Post camp fatigue syndrome

Am still trying to recover from

1) Post NCOC camp fatigue syndrome.

Seems like no matter how much i sleep, i am still infected by the ZZZ bug. It does not help especially when there's so much things to do at the office, and on top of everything, RT. Not to mentioned the excitment of the camp also... Haiz~~

2) Pre Zone Insp Busy Mental Disorder.

Hope it can get cured by sat.

Shoes Flew Bush

Back from an super interesting NCO Course Camp, which is packed with excitment non stop.

And i reach back home, tired, slept and woke up to an interesting news.

Iraqi journalist hurls shoes at Bush

BAGHDAD: An Iraqi journalist hurled his shoes and an insult at George W. Bush, without hitting him, as the US president was shaking hands with the Iraqi premier at his Baghdad office on Sunday.

As the two leaders met in Nuri al-Maliki's private office, a journalist sitting in the third row jumped up, shouting: "It is the farewell kiss, you dog," and threw his shoes one after the other towards Bush.

=============================================

Wow... and i had come out with a poem about it.

Into Iraq, a visiting Bush
a journalist, to give others a boost,
shouted and took off his shoes,
towards Bush, the flying shoes flew.

Into the ground the journalist was pushed,
And gave the late night comics a viewship boost
Wondering when the next pair shoes,
Towards Bush the flying shoes flew.

Thank god, Bush ducked
Otherwise journalist will get f**ked
But it's just old plain luck
that the shoes missed and it sucks.


And after that incident, the ever popular tougue twister, will be changed.

From:
"She sells sea shell at the sea shore, the shells she sell are sea shore shells."

To:
"He threw his shoes at Bush. The shoes he threw flew pass Bush."

Christmas present

Yep. I have bought a christmas present for myself!!!

Wanna know what is it??

Enjoying RT

Started to realised one thing...

I am starting to enjoy my RT for this session.

We are a brunch of incredible jokers, which make the whole RT more enjoyable than my last few sessions for a few years back. We suan the PTIs with jokes that would have cause multiple blacklists or even "deaths" if the same thing was used on the PTIs during our BMT.

It was really enjoyable to be the the crazy brunch of people.

And i don't really feel sian when going for RT.. Perhaps the only sian part is the going through the guard room process.

Hope that can continues.

Stand Chart Marathon 2008

Standard Chart marathon 2008.

Here's the photos... Enjoy!!

The last few runners of the half marathon. If i am running in the half marathon, i guess, at that time, i am still struggling at shenton way.


The first aiders plus the ambulance crew from SJAB and Lentor.


Runners of the half marathon against the city skyline...


A first aid team without any "business" yet.


Sitting on the ECP!!! how often can you do that??


Same goes for standing in the middle of the ECP!!!







And the runners, when they come, in the beginning, only comes in twos, threes... and when suddenly the whole pool of runners will come... in swarms.... almost a non-stop stream of blue "water" came rushing pass us, going uphill direction...





And the funny thing is that, the 10 kilometers run is divided into 2 starting times. The male and the female. And i do see a lot more males starting together with the females. Hmmm... so, those guys, are they there to run 10 clicks or what?? Hmmm.. food for thought.

And there's once i spotted a red hat...

Nope.. he's ain't a Commando.


A santa to be?? Where's his reindeer?? poor santa...

And during the running process, i spotted another hugh group in yellow walking in the opposite direction, as opposed to the steady blue stream of runners. It was a steady yellow stream of walkers!!!

Photos from my mobile

Alright.. here's the photos which had accumlated in my mobile...

Starting from the earliest photo...

Me and ZX at a conferance meeting at suntec.

This is what we do sometimes when we have absoluting nothing to do at ZX's void deck.

And this is what i do sometimes when i have absoluting nothing to do, and went crazy at ZX's void deck...

And this is what i do sometimes when i have absoluting nothing to do, and went crazier at ZX's void deck...

First, it was this...


Then it was this...








Pain, you know?? hahaha

Busy

Been extremely busy these few days... NCOC, Duties, RT...

Went for a back and foot massage on sunday. Back hurts after massage.

And foot massage isn't as painful as what other ppl say...

Good experience, i must say. Hopefully, can upload some photos tomorrow taken over the past few days...

Christmas mood

Christmas is around the corner.

I still does not have a christmas mood... Can i afford a christmas present for myself??

Past, Present and Future

A thought came to my mind... On the past, present and future...

On how the Singapore society has changed.

Past:
Mothers stay at home to look after kids. Father is the sole breadwinner. Grandparents enjoy life.

Present:
Both parents have to work to earn money. Kids sent to grandparents to be taken care of.

Future:
With the present rate of inflation, housing loans, car loans and raising the retirement age, withdrawal limits, Grandparents and parents need to work to earn money. Kids will be sent to be cared for my child care centers.

Moral of the story?

Childcare center will be a profitable business in the future.

Started

NCOC has started.

So does my RT.

On the same day.

It's been a long long time since i have encountered it.

And i have encountered it today... twice some more.

Yep. Twice. 2 RTA. First on my way to work, the other on my way home.

19.
