29 June 2010


Cycling Adventure @ Pulau Ubin was cancelled due to wet weather. *sigh*
New meeting time 11am at Tampines MRT for lunch & window shopping.
Things do not go smooth as expected... such as 1.5 hour delay in arrival of people coming from West Area.

Hello late comers, where are you?


While waiting for the remaining people to arrive, we went to Uni Qlo as some of them need to buy some clothings.
Went to Din Tai Fung when everyone has arrived.


Buying some stuffs at Fairprice before going towards Yong Hong's house.
Leading the way to Yong Hong's house, now we have arrived.


"Golden Pillow 933"...Open up...


Introducing Ben&Ben's Ice Cream


Headed home after our short visit.
My trip home by bus is zzz... inconsiderate passengers. Bus got space, don't want board... no wonder long queue -.-"

28 June 2010
This day marks the 1st anniversary of SpiriT guild in MapleSEA (Aquila).
Meeting Peter & Victor at Toa Payoh, 7pm.
Still have time for my new Evan in Gemini, currently Level 15 in 30 minutes.

Anyway, this is just a little gathering with Victor & Peter.
Dinner at Zion Road Riverside Hawker Centre.
A place which I went before, but in the day... so there isn't much food stalls operating.
This time, it is night... a lot of food stalls are operating.
All the awesome food smells... *drools*

Up next, World Cup 2010 at 10pm (GMT +8) match between Netherlands and Slovakia.
Hooters @ Clarke Quay.
Clarke Quay... a place which I have not been here for more than 10 years.
What I see now is... it is a totally different Clarke Quay.

1st half: 3 glass & 1 mug of Vodka Orange
1 mug was actually converted from another 3 glass of Vodka Orange
At least... I cleared 1 glass of it =X


2nd half drinks for 2nd half World Cup 2010 match


Final score: 2-1
Whoever bought Total Goals of 2... can go bang wall because of Slovakia's last minute penalty kick.

26 June 2010
For this month, it is divided into 3 mass gatherings:
- Gathering I 05 June 2010: Money collection for TKDJ Offical Tee
- Gathering II 19 June 2010: Collection of TKDJ Tee
- Gathering III 27 June 2010: Taiko Competition 2010

05 June 2010 is the day I went, including ASGF 2010.
19 June 2010 is the day I'm not present due to NDP 2010 Rehearsal.
1 day before competition, I met Jenny to go Iluma in the late-afternoon due to her so-called family stuffs/gathering.
While waiting for her green light to go out, I was playing Priest (clear Revive quest) & Evan (clear some quests + level up).

Reached Iluma to spam credits on Taiko 12 as part of tomorrow's preparation.
Hardworking??? This is just part of credits being tapped on...


I even bought a medium Ice Cream since I have $1 discount.
Tried Triple Dad... full of chocolate!!!
3/4-full left... who's loving chocolate?

(BTW, it costs $8...)

While playing Jubeat, Yan Wen saw me (after she dropped me a SMS message).
14 June 2010 - Kena exposed by Jonathan and his darling
26 June 2010 - Kena exposed by Yan Wen and her dear
While they are having dinner at Iluma Subway, Jenny & I went to Bugis Junction KFC.
But it is closing soon, thus leaving very limited stock for sale.
Ended up to eat at McDonald's...
Full house inside = sit outside... well, don't mind without air-con anyway
This is my time to release heart-burning issues which occured yesterday to her.

While heading to board the train, we met Calvin who is taking the same train as us.
Supposingly to transfer at City Hall with Calvin, but I accompany Jenny instead all the way to Boon Lay.
This marks the circle travelling:
- Late-Afternoon: Khatib-Bugis (via Ang Mo Kio/City Hall)
- Late-night: Bugis-Khatib (via Jurong East/Woodlands, loop at Boon Lay)

What's gonna happen tomorrow? Stay tuned - TKDJ Mass Gathering June 2010 III (Part 2)...

Week 12c/19: 25 June 2010

25 June 2010
4 shits... in 1 day:
- Screwed weather causes screwed transport
- Cancel the Cancer... get well soon, Yong Hong
- "Fish Trade Market" in another platoon
- Screwed lift door unable to take lift to my house directly

It was raining heavily in the morning.
Lots of fallen tree at certains area of Singapore, which causes part of the roads/expressways to be closed.
Luckily I'm not affected while travelling to camp although the bus is crowded.
No wonder the wait is pretty long... -.-"

This is the most moodless day ever for the 1st half of this year.
From screwed weather to best buddy kena cancer (Stage 1) to selfish people in another platoon to whole lot kena fucked.
OI, HOW MANY MORE SHIT I HAVE TO GO THROUGH!?!?!?

Screwed weather? Nvm, there's umbrella to solve the problem.
Cancel the Cancer? Luckily it is Stage 1... so get well soon, Yong Hong! - MSC Support & HQ (Special thanks to Jian Zhou)
"Fish Trade Market" in another Platoon? Mentioned before... stop comparing/complaining about fairness... THERE'S NOTHING FAIR IN THIS WORLD!!!

Why I say so?
There's nothing I can help out to the vehicle, but surely there are other stuffs I have to do.
Since Jian Zhou had booked out and Ian is busying with other admin stuff, I'm the only one left to take over his task.
Looking at Yong Hong's message... I almost cried.
Starring at the sky and thought it through.
Why is life so unfair???
Why should the Kind suffer in this state?
Why the Evil manage to escape punishment(s)?

Booking out to have dinner with Kok Wei, Lawrence, Kenneth, Jeremy, Boon Kiat, Wei Ren & Zhi Hao.
Decide for quite a period of time, finally decided to have Subway Footlong meal at AMK (Jubilee) - 2 Footlong meals for $20.
After that, go home with chui lift where it stuck at 7th Storey for quite long.
Walk further to another part of the Block and take the lift up, followed by a stair down... saw the lift door jammed while closing. -.-"

Week 12a/19: 22 June 2010
Week 12b/19: 23 & 24 June 2010

22 June 2010
Instruction given: Book out for the next day's area reccee at Padang
Safety comes first... better look out for narrow roads.

Received update about block leave for 3 days. Argh?
Should not have applied leave earlier on (11 June 2010)... zzz... sibeh unexpected.

23 June 2010
Somehow I feel hating myself now.
The shit seems to happen again even though I had attempted to trim my toe nail.
Ingrowth toenail again??? nbcb...

Secretly went to Iluma Arcadia playing Taiko before heading to the meeting area for reccee.
Last man to arrive City Hall happens to be a guy who wants to be low-profile-but-failed-badly.

24 June 2010
Toenail cut too short?
Of course because I went for such operation 4.5 months ago for the same old shit.
Counting this time, it is the 3rd time already.

Instead of operation, I was given 2 weeks excused shoes.
Suggested to go A&E if condition worsen... but then, will it be too late?
2 weeks... possible of pulling out from NDP 2010.
To go rehearsal this week? No update yet.

On this day, due to postponed-cum-delayed Nights Out... it is changed into Book Out.
To book in the next day.

20 June 2010
My "sweet alarm clock" rang near 12pm.
Meeting Jenny at JP, 2.30pm (delayed 30 minutes).
Went to try my luck to look for USB Adapter Charger at JP Challenger since Jian Zhou bought it from there... but failed.
Walking around JP just for that item I want... can't find.
As I'm already running late, I called Jenny while I look for it at Harvey Norman & Courts... but no answer.
Random thoughts: "Should I just walk to Subway, then call her? Maybe she will pick up."
So qiao, she called me the moment I just reach Subway. -_-"
(Like that also can... lol?)

She thought I had taken my lunch...
Haha! She's wrong this time round! =P
This is our brunch... ^o^
So which set meal belongs the hungry ghost??? [The 1 with large fries & large coke]


Si Jenny... want me drink her half-drank coke... *I feel like sleeping more...*
(Taken by her using my phone)


Still can laugh...


End of our brunch...


Anyway, purpose of today is:

Now I had collected it myself from her bag...
She wanted me to go toilet change then go ZoneX play 1 round Taiko... @_@
JP... an area where I'm likely to meet tio other people...
Then really meet tio people - Kiong & his darling

Towards Iluma, where more people are seen - Mainly Tiffanie (aka Birthday Girl of the day), Brandon, Calvin...
No sign of Yuu...
Lucky Brandon got collect it for us, thanks to her as well for passing message to him.
Went to Hawker Centre for dinner... order Prawn Noodle Soup... Yum!
Went to eat more - Durian!!! 3 for $10... just nice, 3 of us ^^

Picture phail... only shot 2 durians instead of originally 3...


Brandon: Thumbs up for the durian...

Leave no trace behind except eaten durians


Me: Am I the one who eat all the durians???

BTW, have you noticed that I changed my T-Shirt??? (:
(Tio "forced" by Jenny to change at JP...)

Last but not least, the current Taiko Qualifier Top 32 for Finals on 27 June 2010 (as of 20 June 2010):

P.S.: Since when #25 > #26 (2.50mil > 2.51mil)???

And psst... about Karate Kid, Jenny mentioned about "Take out shirt, put on shirt, etc"... this is somehow, the demo without explanation... part of the movie:
Facebook: Video taken by Brandon
A little snapshot, taken from video:


21 June 2010
Short outing to Bugis & ICA for lunch & Passport Collection respectively.
Need to get my Bishop to 4th Job, thus not playing any Taiko.
(Save my ass... massive expenses expected this coming Sunday - 27 June 2010)

My Priest level up to 120 today at 8.40pm.
As there is ongoing 2x EXP event, I only advance it to 4th job after the event ends.
By the time I offically advanced to 4th job as a Bishop, it is around 11pm+.
Need time to travel around... =.=

Tada... it's book in day tomorrow...

Week 11c/19: 18 & 19 June 2010

16 June 2010
My bed buddy Yong Hong has been awarded 2.5 weeks Medical Leave.
Now I sleep on his bed, at least I do not have to climb on top to sleep.
Bottom = cooler; Top = warmer
Take care & get well soon, our platoon's TFG (Tall Friendly Giant) (:

17 June 2010
Went Nights Out 1 hour later (i.e. 7pm) than earlier group (out at 6pm).
Went to LAN with Kok Wei & Lawrence after buying dinner from McDonald's (MOS Burger for Lawrence).
Upsized value = free glass cup... so now I can use it in bunk =p

18 June 2010
Super low mood after knowing that we will have to "confine" for tomorrow's NDP 2010 Rehearsal.
Permission granted to order food delivery. (:
Pizza pizza pizza!!!
1 of the 2 pizzas they ordered... got beef, and I ate it without knowing
(Tactical... =x)
Yong Liang... can't eat beef, also eat without knowing
(Really tactical...)

19 June 2010
Let's talk about food.
Lunch by Pizza Hut... and it rocks to core
(What the f***? It's pizza again since I ate it yesterday although it is from different Pizza company)
Dinner by SFI... and it sucks to core

Let's talk about rehearsal.
Round 1:
Passerbys snapping photos like no tomorrow... especially those who just came out from Esplanade MRT.

Round 2:
Even more crowds!!! Watching free Pre-NDP Preview???

Overall:
Rehearsal end time for the column which I'm involved is around 8.30pm.
But need to wait for further notice to go back...
By the time I managed to book out, it is around 3pm.

After booking out:
Supper with Yong Liang & Kenneth at Li Soon Coffeeshop, somewhere convenient for us to go home after supper.
Reached home after late supper... it is around 4pm.
At that point of time, I see some of the food stall owners preparing to set up their stall for business.
And to my surprise, the supermarket NTUC is now operating 24 hours. O_O

Sleep time: 6am
Alarm by Jenny: ~11.30am (To meet her at JP, 2.30pm [delayed timing])

That's all I wanted to write. Lastly, the photos & videos of NDP 2010 Rehearsals by NDPeeps:

My so-called "Alarm Clock" woke me up at 10.30am instead of 12pm.
There goes my comfy sleep as it was raining. :(
After going through many rounds of NDP 2010 Rehearsals, my sleeping period has changed every after rehearsals: 4am - earliest 11am

Went to her house instead of meeting at Pioneer MRT as she has to take care of a map in MapleSEA.
The time was about 2.15pm.
Since I have yet to take my brunch (breakfast + lunch), I bought food at Pioneer Mall.
Well, that's 1 hour delay after leaving towards Bugis.

Started off with a pair of movie tickets purchase... luckily we got good seats although it is school holiday season.
Taiko competition Qualifier... just join for fun.

Bought a large cup of drink before entering the cinema.
Since I kept 2 packets of chocolate biscuits during NDP Rehearsals in my bag, I took it out... share with her.
(Cheap deal, huh? $3 for 1 large drink + 2 small packets of chocolate biscuits...)
Jacket? Ahhh... suck thumb, tahan the coldness without it since I passed it to her...
(Jacket too big for her = best...)
At the end of the movie... let's have our own chilling touch.
The Karate Kid - Movie Plot: Click here

Back to Arcade, while replying a friend's message... someone tapping my back.
An unknown chilled feeling hand... until I looked on my right.
Jonathan with his darling... O_O

At Iluma Subway: Longfoot Tuna (Reg Meal) to share among us before going home.
