well.. its about time that i updated rite? hehe .. its been long.. well actually nothing really to blog .. whole month of Jan boss on course.. so was like really good. Feb also came and went. 2nd day of chinese New year stuck in camp doing duty. however it was a rather nice one though. it was relaxed as not many people were around. Kinda slack but still on guard lah. Ash wed service on the first day of CNY was good. I never enjoyed going for ash wed service before. but this yr was really good. Hopefully Easter would be great as well ! last monday , had really bad stomach upset. Got two days mc . which raises my MC count to 3 this yr and 11 in total since june last yr. How do i know, cos my unit keeps track with all these minute details . kinda dumb. anyway there are more people far worst than me . so i've got nothing to worry about. Finally i can safely say i've gotten used to army life.. like after 10 months ! its been almost 9 mths since i came to nee soon camp, and i've got 17 mths more to go. haha .. long long way more ya . just pray time flies by quickly.

Well A new year has begun.. and its been like really long since I last blogged.. well.. that was partly due to laziness [mainly] partially due to being upset and also the wonderful number of church activities squeezed all into December. Not to mention Christmas and New year celebrations .. Celebrations?? Hmm.. not really.. ok so now must catch up on like things .. just a summary of each event
Church camp
While everyone left for Malacca on Monday morning, I had to go back to camp due to my lack of leave. Felt like so horrible the Sunday before and it was worst and it hit the peak on Monday morning when my dad sis bro and thilaga akka said bye to me & mom and and left for church. That Monday in camp went by relatively fast.. Mon night however was good as I was excited to be leaving the next day. Tues went by so slowly and I left the office at 400.. took cab to woodlands interchange to meet Jacintha and Albert .. Mom was there as well WE took 950 to the check point and oh my Singapore side was like so packed.. waited like really long.. but the worst was yet to come.. Due to a wonderful traffic jam, We had to wait for the next 950 for like 45 mins.. it was so so irritating.. we cleared customs at 530 .. waited for the bus till 615 ! so we went on . Johor customs surprisingly only took us 5 mins to clear.. haha.. waited for the driver to come pick us up and he drove us all the way to Malacca.. The journey was like really smooth and it was just great lah .. When I reached the hotel it was already like 1130 or something.. but I was so excited I din feel sleepy at all .. went straight to Chamana’s room . On my way up met my sister and she like screamed when she saw me. To the annoyance of Miss Vim who got shocked and also screamed. Hehe.. stayed in Chamana’s room till 200 that day.. ordered fries and were eating until Prashant came knocking and told me to leave as there was some squabble about guys entering girls rooms and vice versa outside .. so sigh .. had to leave.. The next day , Wed was fun, well actually we just suppose to have one session and the evening was suppose to be off.. however .. the speakers wanted to have a session with the worship team at night .. when I heard that .. I was like. .WHAT !!! but what to do .. just suck thumb .. so we made full use of the afternoon. Jonathan Jaba and me ate lunch in 5 mins and rushed to the shopping centre [Ocean] to walk walk. Ended up buying two t shirts, a cap and sunglasses.. Then Jonathan and me went swimming in the hotel pool. Thursday followed Sharon to cut her hair as she rebonded it the previous day. Then the whole bunch of us comprising of Uma, Sinthiya, Prasanna, Sharon, Aruldevi, Dinesh, Pravind, Jaba, Eugene and myself took cab to mahkota parade. We suppose to go there on fri ..but judging from past experiences, we never had enough time to do anything in the limited 2 hours which is given to us.. thus going a day earlier. Did a lot of shopping there.. was really fun hanging out with Jaba.. It seem like this camp I spent most of my time with Jaba and Jonathan. Pravind was more with Uma Sharon they all .. anyways.. the cab rides were so funny.. On our way to mahkota, Sinthiya myself Arul dinesh and pravind shared one cab.. 5 ppl.. and we kenna cheated by the cab driver.. we first agreed on 10 ringgit fare.. but when we got off he said since he carried five passengers, extra 2 ringgit and we happy happy give him.. kukku lah we all .. after he left me and sinthiya looked at each other and like “what did we just do” kinda expression. Going back to the hotel we din want get cheated again so we split 4 by 3 by 3 . So me Prasanna and Sharon one cab, Jaba Eugene Arul one cab and Sinthiya Uma Pravind and Dinesh another cab. The cab we took the driver couldn’t speak a word of English .. and we had to use our horrible Malay .. was so funny .. when we approached the hotel he was still speeding giving no indication of stopping ! we paniced and were going ‘ sini sini !! itu itu !!’ HAHA !! .. ya what an experience.. That night being the last night, We had no lights off so we were playing catching running around the 9th 10th and 11th floors. Was really fun and we [ Me, Jonathan, Eugene, Daniel, Pravind, Uma, Sharon, Angeline, Arul, Prasanna, Shalani Bishan and Sinthiya ]played till 530 in the morning ! .. So as u can see .. Church camp 2004 was a blast !! had so so much fun ..

1- The number of times i've eaten fast food this week
2- The number of people in my family (immediate) who have contracted Dengue Fever the past two weeks
3- The number of weeks before the Big Drama Presentation
4- The number of hours i got time off today
5- The number of cockroaches i saw running downstairs at the fruitshop
6- The number of times i have visted SGH this past two weeks
7- The number of fries i dropped on the floor
8- The total number of hours i slept in the past 2 days
9- The number of hours i intend to sleep today
10- The number of movies i've watched since August
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok ya i din blog for so long already.. i know.. its due to my family members one by one falling sick. My sis had dengue from deepavali day and was admitted to SGH last tues [161104]. Took half day on fri [191104] and brought her home. 201104 [sat] went to the zoo and had like a really good time with me cousins, my cousin, my cousin's husband, niece and aunt oh ya my brother as well.. All the animals were so fun to look at. 211104 [sun] stayed back at church to do [start on] the star search decorations. haha .. only got three weeks left and we havent really started yet.. I mean i haven't lah .. i guess due to NS and the lack of time i dun have the urge to like really stay and concentrate on whatever i have to do .. I mean for the past two years i [ and me group of frens at church] have been working our butts off to prepare for VBS and stuff .. This year however I feel neglected like as though i'm not needed. So heck care about VBS. Till now no one has told me and I dun even know what aspect of it i'm involved in. So i dun bother giving my heart and soul into it.. i'm whining here am i ? well thats how things are.. people only want u and use u when they got no one else. once they find other new people, they chuck the old ones away. All i hope is that i have a good time this yr which i doubt as no effort has been put in on my part to be all worth it on that day [ unlike previous years] Its not as though i dun want to put in any effort, its just that i'm not given the chance and i'm not supposed to .. let the newbies do everything ya.. all u old guys go sit at the corner and act happy and smile smile .. hahaha... i'm crazy lah .. really crazy .. Miss the twins !! can u guys come back to Epiphany ?? PleasE !!

I'm 19 .. oh my i am like so old ya !! haha.. still feel 17 .. so my birthday din go all that badly. The morning Stephen called to say he couldn't make it for the movie .. i was really sad.. never felt that way in my life dunno why .. ya so then i went met shalini yishun and yoges for the movie .. oh my The incredibles is so super nice.. its not that funny when compared to shrek .. but the WOW factor is really good !! its so super WOW !! its so worth paying 8.50 for .. its action packed and cute at some points .. its so much better than that excuse of a movie called shark tale .. dun ever watch that .. so after the movie.. went to church .. stayed back till like 700 doing invitations .. was doing them alone cos the rest abandoned me .. went home with mum .. and to my 'surprise' there were people waiting at home for me to celebrate my birthday .. had fun .. and it finally felt like my birthday .. everyone [ yoges , cedric, shamala, shalani, christopher, charles, varsaghi, naomi ] took a turn in lighting one candle of my cake ..was damn cool.. and the cake is so nice.. chocolate truffle.. yummy hmmm .... sunday was good too .. had fruit salad making competition at church .. my group was me pravind varsaghi annaliza and shalini yishun. was so funny.. varsaghi is crazy lah .. we were having so much of fun doing the salad and making fun of each other .. and we won ! i never expected tat .. i thought we would be last ..cos our salad tasted horrible .. horrible i tell you .. and when christopher [judge] was announcing the individual pts .. we were like last in cleanliness, creativityand taste . haha.. but our advertisement , [put together by yours truly] at the last min was so funny that we got like 27 pts for that .. [ the rest got a measly 6 or 8 pts] so thats how we won.. the advertisement was like advertising fruit salads from different countries in 'enna fruito' variety programme.. varsaghi was the commentator .. i was the guy from japan talking japanese [ pokemon, takashimaya, mitsubishi, yoshinoya, best denki, sakae] ya thats my japanese.. pravind was my interpretor.. annaliza and shalini were the dancing goons from ireland and the introduced one dish by finishing each others sentences.. ya so we won ! yay ! yesterday the food group for youth service came over to do the sandwiches and we had a feast .. watched nemo again.. and annaliza and paulyn stayed over .. tabitha called and we were talking till like 130 am.. woke up late today and played a few games with anna and paulyn , [cluedo , disney monopoly, animals things, boggle] and so on.. watched passion of christ and now online typing this rather lame entry

Birthdays .. have had 18 of them .. tomorrow would be the 19th .. at first i was really excited about it .. no w with almost 45 mins to go .. i'm dreading it .. y ?? well because my perfectly planned day is going as planned.. its sad .. i really dun want to be bored .. i dun want anjy surprises .. I HATE TheM . i would rather people just like plan to go out and inform me so that i'll have something to look forward to then be surprised .. but this yr think i'm not getting any .. well thats it.. my last teenage birthday .. well .. practically have to spend bdae at church the whole day .. I really hope that i dun have to play for second service tomorrow.. it'll be so horrible .. like cannot enjoy myself.. well the only bright spark is that i'm confirmed meeting the twins tomorrow morn to watch the incredibles.. and i'm so grateful to them for like spending time with me .. they are the only people who are not either too busy or say yes then later say no kinda people.. I'm not targeting this at anyone but its just not nice to be put in the situation where everyone says ok then at the last min say cannot .. its horrible.. well the good thing is that i can spend my birthday at church .. the mood now is rather bad at home .. sister having fever.. mom not happy with my dad. .. well sctually my mom not happy with the whole world lah.. some times i dun understand her .. i really wish she would stop complaining about everything.. i mean sometimes i pity my dad cos my mom goes on and on abt something so small and my father if he doesnt respond [which he usually does] she'll continue .. then i'll try to do something like to lighten the mood by doing some nonsense or start smiling or hugging everyone .. [ya i know wierd] but it helps .. sometimes i just wish that i could just go away from this place back to AJC .. I was really happy there.. i dunno whats happening to me now.. its as though i'm living in this illusion .. i'm pretending to be happy but inside i'm not .. living this lie and trying to convince my self that my life is perfect and all .. but its time i realised the truth .. i seriuosly dunno what i'm looking forward to anymore .. i've grown so distant from all my frens .. my army life is mental hell .. church seems to be the only thing which is keeping me going .. but that also is wearing out cos i really can't understand why certain people are behaving the way they are now .. i mean things used to be so different .. times used to be so fun .. people used to have fun together .. now they just have fun in their own cliques .. and i can't seem to fit anywhere.. my sister also has changed.. last time she used to have this thing in her .. this drive to make things fun .. drive to sort things out .. now shes so bochup .. even when she see injustice happening she just keeps quiet.. but i think the main reason why i'm feeling this way is because the twins left church.. I know they felt like they were insignificant people there .. but there being there really makes a difference to alot of people.. i really hope that they understand this .. for me after they left i feel as though i lost something so important that even after a year it still feels weird.. i really hope that they come back .. hope they realise that so many people here miss them so much .. and they them being here makes a difference.. i really hope that i will feel better tomorrow.. i dun want a gloomy birthday..

today was a good day .. Poink was in a super good mood today .. so good till he gave me half a day off due to deepavali. How cool is that .. so ended up spending the afternoon with gal .. at great world .. oh my that place is actually quite boring .. but quite isolated which makes it good lah .. dun have the worry of bumping into someone.. anyways, watched shark tale.. not a good movie though .. the trailers are so mis leading.. its ok lah... its cute but some parts were really boring and the main character oscar is super irritating at time.. this movie is no nemo .. Nemo on the other hand is super fantastic lah .. its a hundred times better then this .. the animation is ok lah .. rather good .. the wit level of the movie is low unlike shrek .. iwould probably give it 2.5 stars ..
