Flying!
November 15, 2006
Since I’m not leaving house for another 30 minutes, I shall blog! You know, the place where I’m at now is very disorganised. The whole system is disorganised and my sir is telling us that we are disorganised! How can!? My area of work, or rather, my jobscope is something which requires many people to cooperate. If just one day before I fly, you tell me you need a whole new stuff, how am I suppose to create anything on one single day. Ok, managed to do some sort of thing, and now you tell me that you just need something which was pre-existed!? Seriously, don’t you think that this is a serious, complete waste of my time!?
But that aside, I found it hard to pack for such a long trip. Even though my stuff managedto squeeze nicely, but that means I need to carry a lot of plastic bags when I come home! All those gifts and stuffs which people entrusted me to buy and so on, need space de ma. I don’t see how I could stuff them all inside my bag lor.
Anyway, what happens when you think that you are coming back on chartered flight in NS? You would be thinking that you go one those SAF transport plane right? But fortunately, S AF has their good points! Chartered flight means that SA F booked the whole plane just for SAF Personnels! Cool huh! What’s even cooler is that my friends and I will be going on a separate plane from NS Personnel, though eventually they were scared that we got lost and thus arranged for a Sir to take the same flight so that he could “jagar” us.
I’m not as worried as 2 days ago when my big big sir shocked me in a sense that I might have tons to do there. But since I’ve settled the tons, as mentioned earlier, I shall embark on my journey with a light heart!
Will post more updates on this trip when I return which is 3 weeks from now!
Till then, bowling! -_- Ok la, since still got some time, shall crap more on this entry. I’m going for bowling training this December. I’m pratically free the whole of this December. And bowling cause there’s a competition in camp whereby my unit send 4 members out to compete. I’m thinking that a 120 average score could get something already le la. But it seems that the competition is quite a big event, therefore, the scoreline might be tougher to achieve. But well, at least that’s another thing to do in December! Yay!
Till then, seeya!
9 things
November 13, 2006
Some things which I think you do not know about me.
1) I’m actually very afraid of the dark! Some of you should know that I like to imagine stuff. Whether it is day dreaming or just wishful thinking, my mind is always thinking of crap la. So when it is at night, my mind tend to wander off too. That’s why I tend to avoid going to toilet late at night. Cause I’ll think that when I look into the mirror, I’ll see something.
2) I have a very short interest span. Meaning, I like to do many things. However, if just 1 criteria don’t suit me, my interest fades away. A good example would be the idea of rearing hermit crab. Because I could not put it inside my room, my interest in thinking of rearing hermit crab decreases tremendously. My current interest is in DIY stuffs! I really want to redesign my room and spend some money on making my room nicer.
3) This is the first time I’m sitting in a plane without my parents! Furthermore, this is the first time I’m transitting in the airport! From Singapore to Sydney! to Brisbane and finally to my destination Rokhamton! Sounds like a typical Australia tour for 19 days right? This is also the longest time I’m away from home! Hopefully I’ll enjoy myself and thus will not think about home! Actually if you enjoy yourself, you will not miss home. Serious!
4) I get irritated very easily. Currently, there’s people playing the drums downstairs. It is so so so so so so noisy! If it is this time last year, I’ll probably walk downstairs and tell them that I’m having A levels and please keep your volume down. If I was still in primary school, you would see me get mad very easily. Well, I guess, in a sense, I’ve matured in my thinking ba.
5) I get stressed and upset very easily. Stressed I suppose is because of the high standard I set for myself. Therefore, I want everything to be done to expectation. Because of that, I tend to be able to do one thing at a time. If I’m asked to do more than one thing at once, like what is required of me, to be able to handle 3 – don’t know how many things at a time, I tend to feel lousy that I can’t cope and thus I get stressed. I suppose now it’s better. Cause I know how things are done and stuff. Getting upset very easily is an even worse problem lor. I suppose it is because I treasure too much on how others view me. Therefore, when they feel that I’ve let them down, I get doubly upset. Cause I’ve let myself down too. However, now I’m starting to think that not everybody deserve the amount of effort I put in therefore, I suppose it could be curb.
6) I snack a lot. I really eat a lot of snacks at home. During work, If I don’t have access to snacks, I won’t eat snacks lor. However, at home, snacks are all located in one cupboard ma, therefore, while watching anime, I’ll fill my cup of water and grab some biscuits to eat while watching. And it is usually directly after meals. bad habit, but I like to snack.
7) When I’m saving money, I really save up a lot. However, when I spend, I usually spend more than what I saved. I’ve saved 280 bucks for this Aust trip. However, I changed 600 bucks SGD for 500 Aust. currency. And when this happen, I will think that when I come back, I’ll repay myself that amount as the money was my savings and stuff la. However, this seldom happen as I’ll be budgeting on what to get next. And in this case, It is probably money to redecorate my room. Furthermore, I like to keep a fixed amount of money inside my bank, just so as to save for a rainy day. And this fixed amount of money increases when my finances increases.
8 ) After reviewing my room, I realise that I only need to clear 2 items. 1 is a DIY cupboard. The other is my desk. If I could clear both items, or maybe! I could repaint them! Alright! Got new idea! =)
9) My favourite number is 9 cause I’m born on the 9th of October. My unit number is also 09-10. The last 4 digits of my handphone number is 1010, which is my father’s birthday!

November 4, 2006
Something funny happened on my way home today.
I was listening to radio while walking home. While crossing the pedestrian crossing, I heard a honk. Any passerby would turn their head to see which vehicle produced the sound. It was my parents and they signalled me to hop on. Signalled = hand out of the window, and waving the hand back and forth. I walked towards the door and entered the car. Very normal right?
However, guess what? There’s actually a girl walking behind me! She thought that the honk was meant for her! Haha. After seeing me getting into the car, then she realised her mistake. She took quick steps and finished crossing the road. I think she must have felt very pai seh lor. A pity i missed her reaction and everything. Lol. Sure very funny one.
And cause my workplace is mainly catered for people who came to work from Mainland China, and registration requires passport, I realised that many, in fact ALL of those I seen are just 19 years old! Meaning, they are actually the same age as me and are already working abroad! Beat that Singaporeans! Maybe I mountain tortoise and unaware that many of us, Singaporeans, are working overseas, but I doubt so la. Probably studying and not working. They are so independent! Argh!
And lastly, I still do not know how to get past next week! Argh! Can die lor. Think sure stress like hell. But nevermind! After next week, I’ll not be going to work for many many many days!
Yay!
