Was 2.30pm by the time I reached the place I was supposed to go to at 2, but it didn't really matter. I was told to wait for awhile before being lead into the same room where others were also waiting for the consultation by the "docs".. While waiting they showed a dvd bout life in NS, and it didn't seem all that bad.. To me NS is much like school, except instead of textbooks there're guns? And instead of annoying teachers there're your officers or wateva they're called.. And the only homework u have is exercise?.. Anyway, the "doc" was typing away after I entered and was told to be seated. So as I sat he asked casually if I had my blood "extracted" (I dunno what word to use :P) so I said yeah, the day before yesterday. Then after he continued some typing he suddenly said that since my blood test was not out yet they can't do anything bout it so I've gotta wait till the end of June when the results are out.. So.. Had a quick lunch-dinner at their canteen.. Food there is much cheaper compared to "kopitiams" outside.. And they add more ingredients... Then after the makan I left, took bus back to Redhill MRT, and took MRT back to Yishun.. Long ride back.. Yawn~
Today's NAPFA seriously sucked for me... Shouldn't have went... Hell, ended up failing 3 stations and falling out of 2.4 cos of stomach cramp... But during this NAPFA I got to know this guy who was enlisted for NS I think and is/was from NYP's engineering or ECC... Very friendly guy. Pity he didn't pass his 2.4 but passed all others with 2 or 3 points... So "sway"... Or else he might have got a silver... Sigh.. I think our performance was adversely affected by the weather. It was so damn HOT... And it just so happened that today there were 2.5 times more participants then usual... Usually there were bout 100 participants but today there were 250. And we were in the last batch taking the test... By the time we got our results back it was nearly 12 and he left after some mutual well-wishing... Stuck in the middle of Toa Payoh wasn't fun. I seriously had no idea where to go and the lady I asked told me to cross the bridge and from there ask. After crossing it I spotted a KFC and had lunch there before heading to the mrt based on total instinct... Thank God I managed to find the MRT... So after that I took the MRT to Redhill, where the idiotic army recruitment centre had to be located; in the middle of NOWHERE. Even after taking the bus, still I had to walked some distance to the ARC itself... Which reminds me of the 1st time I went there with Mic... Haha and thanks to that day today I didn't make the same mistake of walking along the pavement that was separated from the road by intertwined bushes, which we did that day.. So we had to make one big round to cross the damn road... Ah.. Those were the days.. The med check was totally different from the one I took for poly, but I shan't bore and disgust y'all with the details, save one. Blood tests revealed I have "thalassemia", which is basically is "inherited disorder of hemoglobin production", and in complex terms it means "production of the protein portions (globin) of the hemoglobin molecule is decreased, and the globin protein itself is abnormal. The red cells thus produced are smaller ("microcytic") and more pale than normal ("hypochromic"), and are more fragile and prone to early destruction." I wonder what Ms Wong would say to this... The site is here so if by any chance you're interested, check it out. (Just choose any username and pass, it doesn't matter.)
Haven't been updating recently... Lazy I guess. Anyway I guess I'll start from Saturday?...
Exhausted. That's me. After yesterday's gym, my muscles have been aching since I woke this morning... I couldn't even straighten my left arm! Till now its still aching.. I wonder how I got through work... Well I've got Tim to thank again then.. He was my "personal trainer" yesterday at the gym and taught me how to use machines I never used before and how each machine was to be used and for which muscle it was for... Cool... Hopefully all this is sufficient enough for me to just pass the NAPFA... Oh well... Todays work was tiring and unnerving... The 2 so-called BOSSes were here... And there wasn't much to be done so we were like standing there where they could see us... But 30 mins later they left, bowing and saying some Jap words (thank you I think)... That's something. After they left work was more or less as usual... All the way till 8.30 when Sharon was keeping some cups saying there wouldn't be much customers and I was saying how she was wrong, did the customers start streaming in; just about a minute after 3 tables were filled. Until we were so blur didn't know who was with who or whether they were together in a same group or something... And after that 3 tables, there were more! Such that the last customer left only at 10 sharp, the time which we were supposed to have finished everything... And I was re-learning bar-closing then... So by the time we all were finished with the night duties it was already 10.30... WHEW... Am I tired or what... Anyway I guess I'm done here. Chris OUT!
Troy was, like what many said, GREAT!!! Absolutely one of THE best movie I've ever watched since.... LOTR? Yeah... And both movies are quite alike too!... Go watch it if you haven't. You won't regret it. (Unless of course you happen to be broke! :P) I think the real hero in this movie isn't Orlando Bloom aka Paris (yes Kym, not this time). It was Eric Bana, aka Hector. Want to know why? Watch it. Opinions may differ though. Oh yeah did I mention Orlando Bloom used the bow in this movie too? Yup, he was as good an archer as he was being Legolas in LOTR. But I'd better not spoil the movie for you so, GO CATCH IT!!
As for today, I guess I could elaborate. Started off with heading to NYP to pay the remainder of the fees, but as my dad had given me cash yesterday instead, I had to pay by NETS 1st. It was quite fast. Just pay and it was finished. Oh yeah, didn't notice this earlier but, the escalator were automated by sensors.. So when it didn't seemed to be moving at 1st, when u step onto the escalator, it'll start to move. Hmmm. After that I went to Raiders for some LAN by myself and happened to meet Yin Chun. Hahaha I never expected I see him there but I was actually talking to him before knowing it was him. LOL. Real funny. After playing so many maps, we left and I had lunch before depositing the money. And then went home.. So boring.. Oh yeah I think we're gonna watch Troy on Wednesday, according to Chin Seng there're bout 6 people at least confirmed? Cool.. Can't wait!
Basically what happened on Sunday:
SHIT. I HATE MY COM!!! I was blogging towards the ending bout Sunday when the stuuuuuuuupid internet explorer popped up "......illegal operation....." HATE THIS!!!!!!!! DAMN IT.....
Wow work today was sooo tiring... Customers were streaming in almost constantly... But I learnt bar closing from Sharon today!... Haha... She's a great teacher... But if there wasn't that many customers even at 9 I think I'd have been able to learn better. Anyways I think there isn't really that much difficulty in bar-closing.. Just quite a lot of things to do that's all. But after work I was definitely relieved... I bought back supper from Mac's and drank up the Sprite while walking home.. So thirsty...
Brought my mum to Pasta Cafe for lunch (brunch for me as I woke up late :P). At that time only Huisi and Jamie were working.. The Nikomi Hamburg Steak was fantastic.. I didn't know it would taste that good. The Margarita pizza wasn't too bad but had little ingredients. But what to expect when it costs only $7, unlike the Hawaiian or Seafood ones which cost bout $10 and $12.. Anyway, we kinda rushed our meal as we were about to be late and Hermann was waiting... So after paying we left and walked to the Eldercare where the Mothers' day celebrations was to take place. Nothing much happened there; it was mainly organised for the elerly folks. Hermann and Gideon helped my mum to change the guitar strings but Gideon cut the strings a lil too short which was regretted when my mum got home, as she found out tat e strings came loose and the new set of strings were wasted as they were too short and it would be quite difficult to string them back... *SIGH* Now she kinda regrets not saying anything when she saw him cut the strings... To make it worse, the strings were of good quality and her friend gave them to her.. I wonder how much the strings cost.. Oh well..
Weird... Very weird... I really am so messed up now I can't think straight. What's happening??? Why is it that they only record the 1st 3 parts of e IP address?? Seems the only difference in the addresses is in the last part of the address... CRAP.. *SIGH* With all the tension around especially in ******'s blog, I really can't take anymore of this hypocrisy... Arg... WHAT SHOULD I DO??
Apparently some moRon has had nothing to do and has started impersonating me. Of course I've a good idea who that lame moRon is... And of course, I ain't pissed at the least. (Hear that you impersonator?) Good try though, just not good enough. And don't worry, I ain't going to stoop to your level to even up.
Well.. Just where should I start?... Church then...
Saturday nights' blog entries usually are the most "interesting" or "exciting" amongst all the 7 days... Apparently today wasn't quite a Saturday huh?... I stayed home till 5+ then went for work... C'mon... This AIN'T Saturday man... Well... Sad truth?... Heck... I screwed up quite a few times at work today... Thank God Ivy wasn't angry much... Well... She didn't show a single trace that she was so I guess she still considers me as a newbie... *whew* Anyway I think I ought to start blogging in CORRECT English, or else I'll end up writing in singlish when school starts... Looking forward to that.. Jeffrey seems to be having quite a great time at Republic Poly... I hope Nanyang'll be just as fun?... I guess I can only wait and see... Oh yeah looking forward to tomorrow's soccer too... Hehe :P
Van Helsing rox!! cool show!! muz watch!! well too bad Tim HAD to watch it today cos i was supposed to play pool with some ex-colleagues... oh well another time perhaps?... after e movie i accompanied tim to church where he got support singing stuff... ezekiel and samuel were playin table tennis downstairs!! kao i dunno how loooong nv hold e bat liao haha... got thrashed by ezekiel, who, btw, plays every week k?... i seriously lost track... esp after joshua left our church... haiz... soon e support singing practice finish liao then went for dinner at e coffee shop near church with daniel, sheryl and shaun too... haiz too bad no more mee rebus... anw after eating and chilling there watchin some tv, we went back church where there was gonna be praise and prayer like my mom said... i tot she'd come... oh well... after e session, we went to BK have some supper... haiz broke liao... tml got work can earn another 20bucks... which i'll onli get at e end of e month... sheeeeeesh.... l8r!
woke up at 1.30pm... imagine tat... bet those still in school'll kill me if they knew huh?... whahahaha... but i stayed home e whole day till it was time for work... work seems to get better... as i learn more, i become more competent and i dun feel as helpless like in e 1st day of work... at least now i've got almost all e basics down... but i did screw up once when table 5 ordered some pasta and when e pasta was served, they claimed they didn't order it when they definitely did... blooodly hell.... i even repeated e orders earlier... but andrew wasn't tat bothered by it... which was *whew* for me... o yea i even learnt how to carry 3 plates at one go... real cool... but no more work till sat so i'll be slacking away till then... l8r...

'cept for soccer last sunday... met up with vic at yishun mrt 1st be4 meetin andy, kun loong, eng kian and pamela at amk mrt...we played in e indoor court at e nearby teck ghee CC... as we just played for fun, i can't say for sure who was e best among us, but i believe andy was one of e best, smackin e shuttlecock whenever he could... but after e 3 hours, i guess i've improved... i self-taught myself (again) to smack properly... kinda surprised tat eng kian was quite gd too... but he kept makin us laugh with his funny antics like dodging and stuff... kun loong was good too... but he could have been a lil less accurate when he smacked e bloodly cock at my face... lol... gave them all a real good laugh... well after e game i went back to yishun with vic while e others took buses as they lived in amk... at yishun i had an early dinner with vic... after tat i had to go home for a quick bath to go to work...
