09 Aug 2010 This is our show, give the audience the "WOW" experience! After 4 months of rehearsal, this marks the end of NDP 2010 story. End of burning weekends? Not yet. ATP... another weekend to burn... x_x On the brighter side, marksman = free money into pocket xD Off-in-lieu after NDP... NOT FOR ME!!!
Lots of defining moments during NDP, although... yea, it sucks to have our precious weekend to burn. No time with my family, friends, and... *ahem ahem* *secret* 2 of my friends wanted to go out with me, but definitely 1 of us will not be available. It all started from June 2010. Hopefully after NDP 2010, everything will be back to normal (probably after Sep 2010).
As for NDP... hoho, do we expect COA to talk to Adam? =D
MSC during NDP...
More pictures... well, just google it for pictures, it's everywhere! =P
It has been a busy July for me, or probably too lazy/tired to update it. Anyway, on 03 July 2010, I went to NDP 2010 CR 3 with Victor since I have a pair of tickets & not involved in the rehearsal on that day due to excuse boots status. Either way, can I still consider myself as NDP involvement? *bhb*
While waiting for Victor for his arrival from Pasir Ris, I went to walk around Esplanade area. Great changes were seen such as MBS (Marina Bay Sands).
Upon his arrival, we enter the Padang. Although it is a bad weather, we carry on watching as usual. As this is Combined Rehearsal 3, there are severals Simulators/Simulations such as Heartlands (CCK, Bishan, Woodlands, Eunos, Sengkang), MP, President, Corrinne May, etc etc.
Some of the snapshots in this post:
1 of the 4 hosts in this year NDP: Gurmit Singh
Now you see, how WET the weather is during Mobile Column at 7.08pm? (p.s.: Terrex... go!)
Of course, fireworks not to be missed!
And your Fun Tote bag... 1 of the various designs this year.
The show ended at about 8.20pm, initially wanted to go home... but went to JP instead to "try my luck" & avoid the severely congested North-South Line towards AMK/Yishun/Woodlands at City Hall. Were my eyes playing tricks on me? Spotted Jenny in the Arcade with Jerry, playing Taiko11. Apparently, I'm not spotted until 10 minutes later? -.- Dinner at Subway (turned KFC/McDonald's away to to massive crowd...), home.
That's all I wanted to write. Lastly, the photos & videos of NDP 2010 Rehearsals by NDPeeps: NDP 2010 Rehearsal (Mobile Column) @ Tuas on 13 June 2010
26 July 2010 Not even 24 hours after booking out, it's book in time. F***, not even have enough rest lor... then today, head starts to spin a bit... but heck care.
It gets worse at night... making me to sleep much earlier than expected.
27 July 2010 But it does not seem good... for safety reason, not going for training to drive vehicle. Drive vehicle while head is spinning like **&$*#$ = danger
Slept in medical centre when I'm supposed to have Drip. LOL fail... but rest/sleep makes me feel better. The only thing which is not OK: The air-con f**king cold!
28 July 2010 Something which I had noticed. Apparently, those who booked in with me = kena MC/status (except 1) Win liao!
29 July 2010 More drills... this time is to recall what I had learnt in Chapter 1! WTF? That was many months back?
Night: The worst McDonald's delivery order ever. Lesson: Never order food delivery after 9pm!
30 July 2010 I went home during Nights Out. (: Swe, at least got 1 Nights Out during my long week in camp. >.<
31 July 2010 NDP 2010 Preview! Performance? I have no idea. 8 more days (as of 01 August 2010) to NDP, also left with 1 year 1 month 1 day to ORD (as of 09 August 2010).
20 July 2010 Whee... I'm finally down again to sickness, although minor case. Guess it's time for me to get sufficient rest. (: *ahem ahem* *sneeze*
21 July 2010 It seems I'm recovering, that's good. But the cough remains... Announcement made: IPPT the next day... GG!
Nights Out: Watch a Sneak Preview movie: The Sorcerer's Apprentice Cool movie, straight forward. Wikipedia: Plot
22 July 2010 Ok, IPPT 2.4km run is simply imba. Suddenly so many people chiong. =.= Thought I fail timing sia.
Overall result... *a**, because of some stations... ... standard stations... cmi.
23 July 2010 Every Friday is NDP Preparation Day. This is the worst experience - 1 Man show. Take stores, check vehicle, etc etc etc... all by myself. =.=
Some go Lecture Some go Outfield And One go Medical Appointment
>.<
How I wish I can have multiple pairs of hands, doing all the tasks in 1 go.
24 July 2010 Feedback about NDP 2010 NE 3 run... good! ^^ I wonder what does Jun Le do with 1 NE3 ticket which I passed to him last Sunday (17 July 2010). Hmmm...
13 July 2010 Vehicle static drills by other companies, what will we be doing there? The famous "VEHICLE OVERTURN"!!! (Of course, there are other drills...)
14 July 2010 Camo... a similar stuff when we went for Driving Course. Eye power during their drill...
There was a parade in the evening. At the end of the parade, there should be some firings... but a bit fail due to some technical faults.
15 July 2010 Chat session with a sergeant, whose name being the same as 3 other Man name combination (go figure it out yourself =p): Jeremy Lee Benjamin Lua Seng Wei Jie
Even my name initial (except surname) is no longer unique.
16 July 2010 Training drills... my role is to drive Man who are at the back of vehicle. Drive safely... (:
Last but not least, epic happening at night. More than 10 people order McDelivery... ended up, it arrives with a box full of set meals. LOL!!!
17 July 2010 Sui! Today's rehearsal looks better than last week. How I wish I have friends who bypass Suntec City, looking for me... (:
That's all I wanted to write. Lastly, the photos & videos of NDP 2010 Rehearsals by NDPeeps: NDP 2010 Rehearsal (Mobile Column) @ Tuas on 13 June 2010
05-07 July 2010 Chap 5c: Week 14a/19 Chap 6: Week 2a/4
07 July 2010 Chap 5c: Week 14b/19 Chap 6: Week 2b/4
08 & 09 July 2010 Chap 5c: Week 14c/19 Chap 6: Week 2c/4
10 July 2010 Chap 5c: Week 14d/19 Chap 6: Week 2d/4
05 - 07 July 2010: Saikangs ending soon Basically, same old task again until 07 July 2010 - Last day of excuse status. Additional highlight on 07 July 2010 - NDP 2010 Heartland Reccee (WEST)
05 July 2010 - Nothing to do, watch movies in my player ^^ - I Not Stupid 1 - Bean (The Ultimate Disaster Movie) - Liang Po Po The Movie
Quite old movies liao... but better than nothing, since I wanted to kill time during free time. (:
07 July 2010: NDP 2010 Heartland Route reccee - West As a role of reserve, I have to know every single heartland route well. North route is no kick for me, but West & East routes are the problems since I do not know anything. During this session, I look out for West route. West route is much more difficult than North route. -.-" More slip roads, more 2 lane roads, more road diversion due to DTL construction!!! The best part: Loop 1 round around Orchard before heading to the West
08 & 09 July 2010 These 2 days are meant for NDP 2010 NE1 Prep & new training ground reccee. Also, Fast Marching-cum-jogging is ****. Fast march = gap widen Jog = gap close Leg ankles ****-ing pain!!!
Nights Out - Grab food to eat, then to the Arcade It sucks to play Taiko with a pair of plastic bachi provided at ZoneX. Other people involved in ZoneX - Ben Poh, Lawrence, Kok Wei, Kenneth, etc etc etc... ... Taking cab home... got 1 imba experience: We saw a car on our left with triangle plate turning right It is a 2-lane right turn, other lanes to go straight/turn left Left-most lane will go to left-most lane after turning right, same gomes to right-most lane But this vehicle use left-most to turn right to right-most... almost kena accident!!!
10 July 2010 Instead of a reserve role, I'm back to drive during this NDP 2010 again. But with immediate effect, I'll be taking the West route instead. With Jia Hong as my VC, nothing to worry about. (: The most **** part is: CMD XYZ instruct ABC to place weapon into Veh A, then settle everything when reach camp CMD RST, without giving ABC a chance to explain, keep **** ABC until CMD XYZ steps in
After all those SHITS, task cleared at 5am & book out at 6am. To add in more SHITS, I'm going out with my family later... NO NEED SLEEP LIAO!!!
Status continues for this week with more store items helpout. For the next 4 weeks (including this week), it is 2 chapters at the same time. 5c for NDP, 6 for new training phrase... This week, nothing special happenings except the stores helpout on Friday (02 July 2010). CSM realised... how come I'm always the one helping Jian Zhou?
Who's next to spot this???
Initially I wanted to stay back a little longer with Jian Zhou to keep the stores at night, but I have to settle NDP 2010 CR3 Tickets & Taiko Competition prize collection...
For the NDP side, it is confirmed that I'll be play the role as a Reserve. If somebody is absent from the rehearsal, I have to take over that particular role. But it will not take effect this week, because I'm unable to participate. So good luck to the rest of MSC!!! (: (I know it sucks to burn precious weekend...) (I know I'm a bastard... while you guys are driving along St Andrew's Road, I'm using my Eye Power at Padang...)
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.
Week 11b/19: 16 & 17 June 2010 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: NDP 2010 Rehearsal (Mobile Column) @ Tuas on 13 June 2010
The final rehearsal at Tuas. The first time we went back to camp almost 11pm (usual 12am-1am). New formation for this day's rehearsal... which means, need to know my new alignment.
Usual KFC for lunch. Usual SFI for dinner.
Hopefully it's not KFC for any meal when I meet Jenny tomorrow (14 June 2010).
Oh ya, NDP 2010 Rehearsal (Mobile Column) photos are uploaded to Facebook by NDPeeps.
09 June 2010: Snake - Property of CSM While waiting for the reccee rehearsal to start, we received permission to enter the office to rest. CSM brought in a container containing a snake... O_O Bad news from him... need to do vehicle check after coming back from midnight reccee. Sian to the max!
10 June 2010: NDP 2010 Rehearsal (Heartland [2]) Still got a lot of time to hang around after reaching the start point of reccee. Permission granted to go somewhere nearby for a better dinner - Burger King. Together with Yong Liang & Kenneth, we went to Kallang Leisure Park to have dinner. Since it is near Stadium MRT, I went to top up EZ-Link card cash value. =p
The start of reccee. In fact, I already remembered most of the routes which I will be taking during the NDP 2010 @ Heartlands. There's an area which I forgot... during the 2nd run-through of this reccee session. This time, it is happening during the wee hours. So... have you been turned out by these noises around your estates? Those night owls... taking out their cameras and snap a shot, video them down... Still shout for "ORD"... dots to the max -_____-"
10 June 2010: Noisy Fuckers Need to do vehicle check in the afternoon, sian sia. Last week's reccess for the other group... no need to do. My group need... wth! Nvm... just hope after a few hours of sleep/rest, I will feel better. But, thanks to these noisy fuckers... talking/laughing loudly like nobody's business, HOW DO YOU EXPECT ME TO HAVE A GOOD REST??? CHEE BYE!!!
Went to Kok Wei's bed and have an additional hour of peaceful sleep. =Z But... having headache after waking up. Gonna tong till I really can't make it (aka SICK). x_x
Dinner: SFI Gong Bao Chicken, Cabbage Comes along with Tuna Pizza O_O
Supper: Old Chang Kee (OCK) Curry Puff
Comes to KFC, the food is always the same. Comes to OCK, most of the time it is Curry Puff. Comes to NDP, it is just 1x good per round for every rehearsal.
For this week, can consider chui. Suddenly need to chiong... alignment chui. Need for speed? =.=
During rehearsal, Jenny called me. Free Cash Items... fully redeemed!!! No more liao. =.=
After NDP, book out... while walking out of camp with Kenneth & Yong Liang, we saw a few Taxis drove past along the main road. The moment we reach the main road, there isn't any taxi along the stretch of main road... even after about 10 minutes. Lawrence's father drove past, thanks to Lawrence, we rode on his vehicle to Khatib together with James.
And guess what? I slept at 4am, woke up at 12pm... LATE LIAO!!! Meeting my friend at 12pm to go JP... GG!!!
Week 9a/19: 30 May 2010 Week 9b/19: 02 & 03 June 2010 Week 9c/19: 04 June 2010
30 May 2010: NDP Rehearsal (Phrase 2c) - Breakdown drill After Run1 of the day, lunch was delivered. This is not a dream... it's real - KFC for lunch!!! This is not the only KFC meal of the day, dinner also!!! But late dinner screwed the taste of KFC... not nice liao.
Guess what time I book out after moving some vehicles from 1 place to another... that's 2am on 31 May 2010. Took cab home with Kenneth. By the time I reach home: 2.30am. Rest till 3am, go bath. While waiting for hair to dry, use computer until 4.15am... sleep. The time I woke up: 11.30am... can skip breakfast even though my mum insisted me to. zzz!~
Today's free biscuit, also by Khong Guan... but of another type:
02 June 2010: RT RT Lucky I don't belong to a group which requires to run as part of training. So I have to maintain my 2.4km run timing at least...
SBJ & Chin up to clear... zzz!~
03 June 2010: 5.6km Pre-10km AHM Own time own target run... shag like shit. I feel like dragging a huge rock while running. =.=
03 June 2010: Nights Out - Just dinner This could be the most sian Nights Out ever. Just go out, have dinner... walk around AMK Hub... then go back. No mood to go Arcade play, simply because I have to cut down expenses for this month (before June payday) to survive this weekend massive expenses. ASGF 2010 & Brenda's 21st birthday party to go through this coming Saturday.
04 June 2010: The most fucked up day - Light Off issue & Standby Area Most people fall in late, tio punish... ok, accept as a whole. Small number of people not on bed after Light Off... whole lot kena. Wait a minute, what's the exact defination of "Lights Off"? - On bed sleeping? - Can do whatever you want as long as lights are off?
Seriously, both are the answers. In PCs' point of view, it is sleep. How about this? Let's all get on bed, lie down... no noise... try to sleep after Lights Off? Confirm + chop nothing happen, else like this day... nbcb.
Make it worse... standby area. Who the f*** will go and clean when past few standbys did not check the following: - Window Handle? - Noticeboard which is totally not in use? - Windows at Ground Level?
Seriously, each standby areas are getting more ridiculous. What are they up to? Clean the cookhouse next time? Whole camp? GND!
The moment I reached the bus stop, the 2 bus services which bring me to my destination had just departed. Chiong to MRT, but train just departed also. Thought the wait will not be long, but after 5 minutes... so sign of next train arrival timing. At that point of time, I had yet to enter the station platform. Walked back to the bus stop... luckily the bus arrived.
1st few train frequently in the early morning is around 10 minutes per train till 6.30am??? Hmmmm...
NDP rehearsal for today in the afternoon... I think I screwed it badly. Almost hit on an object which can cause accident. Other than that, no other comments... everytime the same.
Last week, I mentioned about the f*** up SFI providing "Expired Tomato Sauce". Today's lunch... the chicken they gave, all different size. I suay suay tio the small 1. =.=" Kenny... gets the BIG 1. Win already. -.-
Snacks... who will expect Pizza Hut to deliver their BBQ Chicken Wings??? xD Khong Guan specially packed their Merlion-shaped chocolate biscuit into exclusive NDP 2010 design packet. O_O
Week 7a/19: 16 May 2010 Week 7b/19: 18 May 2010 (Book in) Week 7c/19: 19 May 2010
16 May 2010: NDP 2010 Rehearsal @ Tuas (1) Rehearsal Phrase 1 yesterday, Phrase 2 today... lack of REST/SLEEP!!! Trying to rehearsal nice nice, but comes to evening... it is screwed like shit. Main factor: Raining Alignment all like shit liao. Do ok... kena fuck. Do not ok... kena fuck. No matter what... still kena fuck.
How about this fuck up stuff by Singapore Food Industries?
EXPIRED TOMATO SAUCE!!! HOLY FUCK!!!
End of rehearsal for the day... damn sleepy like shit! Only can book out the next day, early in the morning. Still got Ice-cream buffet later.
18 May 2010 (Book in): Water wuru-sion for Yong^2 Grats for the 1st birthday boy to be "water paraded" at night. Who says we don't do it at night as well? xD Ok, take a break... the next 1 still got more than 1 week away.
By a 2LT: "You want tau-pok or strip?"
19 May 2010: NDP 2010 Rehearsal (Heartland [1]) Looking at the route I'll be taking... going to faint liao. At least I know some of the roads (near the end of route), but not the start of route. Probably next week, there will be another run-through of heartland route?
Week 6b/19: 11 - 13 May 2010 Week 6c/19: 14 May 2010 Week 6d/19: 15 May 2010
11 May 2010: Kok's wuru-sion Wave 2 - Kok Kian's birthday 21 Yes, I'm the next Kok to be wuru-ed after Kok Wei. Double Kok, Double Wuru-sion, 2 different days, 1 common wuru-sion. Recalling what Jian Zhou had mentioned about drying a pair wet shoes, I stuffed in newspapers into my pair of wet shoes. Ok, at least I'm not as wet as Kok Wei 4 days ago... Even if Chris did not tell me to siam, I most likely know what will happen next... Since already tio pour water liao, might as well... just continue to tio more. Probably this is my platoon's Standard Procedure to wuru Birthday Boy of the day? 1st birthday boy to be wuru-ed by water (Anywhere): Ben Poh (During his birthday party) 1st birthday boy to be wuru-ed by water (IN CAMP): Kok Wei
As Jonathan is booking in at night, he brought in Coffee Bean brownie cake for mini-celebration. This marks the end of Double Kok Water Wuru-sion. Subsequently, what wuru-sion they plan for the upcoming birthday boys... I have no idea.
Lastly, Happy Birthday to myself! Good luck to the next birthday boy - Yong Liang!
12 May 2010: "Up" Movie & NDP Rehearsal's Attire Check Early in the morning, my clock is not ringing at all when other bunkmates had woken up by their alarms. Sian, that means my alarm chui liao. zzzz!!!?
Initially, we thought there is NDP Rehearsal for us. After going there, we were being checked for NDP attire. Then go back bunk, except troopers to remain for NDP Rehearsal.
Ian is watching "Up". A movie, which I felt like watching last year... but never watch. Now got the chance to watch. =P
13 May 2010: "The Losers" movie & The Ugly Scene at AMK MRT Station Platform B This day is our rehearsal but 2nd group will not rehearse due to bad weather. There's Night Out on this day, to watch "The Losers" with: Jian Zhou, Lawrence, Adam, Zhi Hao, Benjamin Lua, Tiong Wee, Chao Xiang, Russell, Edwin, Kok Wei & Kenny.
Plot taken from Wikipedia: Five members of an elite United States Special Forces team are sent into the Bolivian jungle on a search and destroy mission. The elite team including Clay, Jensen, Roque, Pooch and Cougar find themselves the target of a betrayal instigated from inside by a powerful enemy known only as Max. Believed to be dead, the group makes plans to even the score when they're joined by the mysterious Aisha, a beautiful operative with rather sly moves. Together they track and follow the ruthless and heavily armed and guarded Max to foil his plans of transforming the world as we know it into a new high-tech global battleground.
Went to buy some stuff to load up our food. xD They even bought Ice-Cream tub, which to be eaten while waiting for the taxi.
BTW, while on our way to Junction8, there was a small quarrel in the MRT train at AMK station. Just because the train is so packed until have to squeeze, 1 of the passengers buay song. Squeeze a bit also buay sai meh? Somemore is Man VS Man. WTF, I thought Woman VS Man. =.= Sia lar... almost going to have a big fight in the public area wor. Passengers nearby, all eyes on them. The only way to stop this is for the train captain/officer to close the door since 1 of them is being pushed out to the station platform.
14 May 2010: Advanced Skill Area Cleaning Nothing much on this day except doing new stuff for Area Cleaning - Clean the fan & lightings. These 2 locations seriously too thick for 1 Terrex.
Book out lo! Next day early morning book in, luckily it is near my house. xD
15 May 2010: End of NDP2010 Rehearsal 1 Nothing much to train on, except the vehicle moving alignments. Book out lo!!!
Book in for NDP Rehearsal at 7am. Don't feel any hunger, thus skipped breakfast... with more time to sleep. Upon arrival, I wait for the rehearsal to start... So long, until they ordered McDonald's for breakfast. This isn't a joke... it is McDonald's. Inside a few paper bags, there are a total of about 30+ Sausage Muffins with Egg Burger. O_O
By the time the rehearsal starts, it is 11am. Die liao... initial end time supposed to be 1pm, at this state, sure extend to around 3pm+. How to go out later sia? zzzz!~
Indeed it ended at 3.30pm. FML! Outing later 100% gurantee cancelled. Screw it! Everytime plan finalised, this NDP sure come disrupt my plan. When it is not confirmed, NDP like want or don't want disrupt... eventually, not affected. When can I have a finalised plan which is not affected by anything else!?!?!?!?!?
Let me see if my upcoming schedule permits or not - 15 May 2010.
30 April 2010 It's 3.50pm, and I left my house for NDP2010 Rehearsal. The moment I reached the bus stop, I received a call regarding cancellation of NDP2010 Rehearsal. Called my CSM to confirm about this, and it is. Hang up my phone, the bus opened the door for me... I was like... diao? Heng ah... save my transport expense to Rehearsal Site.
I'm left with 03 May 2010 issue - to watch movie with Jun Le & Jenny. I asked Jun Le if he's available to watch movie after his book out. Luckily, he's available. That's case solved!!! ^^
Met him at my house downstair at 6pm. Initially, we wanted to watch Iron Man2 at GV Yishun. Surprising, the tickets are selling fast unlike Ip Man2!!! Heard from a few friends of mine that Ip Man2 very nice to watch, we bought a pair of tickets for that show using my SAFRA card. Hehe... save $2 per ticket. (:
Dinner at a coffeeshop nearby where I ordered my Chicken Cutlet Rice. Yummy!!! Went to buy a bottle of drink at Cold Storage, must cheaper than buying from GV... anyway I don't feel like drinking "gasy" drinks. Make it on time to find our seats and sit down, enjoying the whole movie. This 1hour 48minutes movie (Ip Man 2 [葉問2/叶问2] is about:
Wing Chun master Ip Man moved to Hong Kong in the 1950s together with his family after escaping from the Japanese. He decides to open martial art school to teach Wing Chun to make a living, but it was not well known in this region. Ip will only be allowed to keep his school open if he wins every match with the master. It ended up a draw with Hung.
Week 3a/19: 19-21 April 2010 Week 3b/19: 22 & 23 April 2010
19 April 2010 This day's book in is in the afternoon, off-in-lieu NDP Rehearsal1 on 17 April 2010 halfday. I.C. appointment continues for Day7 while the other platoon had done so. *stress* Watching a documentries about Infantry Fighting Vehicles...
20 April 2010 After 8 days of I.C. appointment, finally a change!!! Can relax a bit liao. There is a 2.4km timed-run... passed by 4 seconds. =X
Watched "21"... halfway though, due to lack of time.
21 April 2010 Continued watching "21", but still unable to complete it due to Nights Out.
Nights Out @ Junction8 with Jian Zhou, Lawrence, Kok Wei, etc etc... about 10 people anyway. First stop at LJS having out Dinner Part2. While some of them went to Popular Bookstore, the rest headed to Häagen-Dazs for min-ice-cream meal. For me, not eating any ice-cream, headed to Arcade. Those who just left Popular, went to Arcade as well. Jubeat... for the 1st time, own people by 300k+ score. =X 1.5x EXP song of the day: Unfortunately, I have yet to unlock it.
Lastly, we (Lawrence, Jian Zhou, Kenneth, Kok Wei, I) headed to NTUC to stock up our dried food. (: Comes to payment, the cashier screwed up. =.= Scan extra on 1 of the many items we purchased. At least, we were told to check before leaving the counter.
Now, this is the worst part when we were heading back to camp. We queued for taxi at the front of Taxi Stand since there is no queue. A lady behind us, flagged for taxi. But taxi stopped in front of us instead, for us to board. We have the right of way anyway. Who cares about her cursing and swearing the attitude of NS-men (us) in this case?
