♥ 1:34 AM
new year was spent at camp with my buddy doing guard duty. was joking abt creating my own fire works using my rifle. nonetheless we manage to hear boom boom boom while we were having our guard rest. that was the sign that 2008 had pass and hereby enter 2009.
actually i was hoping that 2008 will cont longer because it would mean a long year for me in army for 2009. but than again it means i am closer to ORD although still very long.
had my ministry thanksgiving at chjimes at this place call hog's breath cafe saloon & grill. actually i am not the kind that like to attend such thing. would rather stay home or hang out with my friends. but each year i have grown closer to my ministry and my ministry feels like my "family".
today had day guard. usually i will wake up like probably 20 mins before fall in timing. but today i especially woke up earlier to go book detail 1 so i can end my guard duty at 5.30pm and rush down for this thanksgiving dinner.
reached at 7.30 i think. must apologise to those who were trying to chat with me. because i had a fantastic seat that face the tv and it happen to be on ESPN my eyes were kindda glued to the telly since is rare for me to watch espn sport centre news. not trying to be rude or anything. so van don say i am rude or anything. make me sad sia.
kudos to the organizers. had this game call don forget praise and worship. was chosen by my team to go and play. my version would be praise and worship forget tat kwek. my song was take it all easy song but i still flopped and let my team down. it would be a miracle if i ever remember the lyrics haha. i think gurmit singh would love me on his show. because i will nv walk away with the $500,000.
overall had a splendid time with the chorus board peeps. looking forward to spending more time with them in 2009. learning and fighting fire.
i am still thinking whether to go abroad to further my studies anot after ns or stay in singapore. i think high chance after i ORD i am going to like ask my dad to loan me some cash to get a car if i decide to stay in singapore. i will get a audi tt coupe as my first car. well is kindda selfish car but than again i am the driver.
gonna wake up early and go run, do 200 crunches and 1000 weight lifting each weekend. decide to be more discipline in order to achieve my goals for 2009. read the comic strip on the paper it said what is your resolution for the year, the reply was to achieve my resolution last year. need to exercise greater discipline to achieve those goals that i set out for 2009.
actually come to think of it...being down for guard duty on the 2nd day of chinese new year is not so bad. although i hate it but than again i thank GOd that i am not doing backup for this person in camp which will always give excuses as to why he can't do guard duty. beside i get to have 1 day off which i have decided to use it on my birthday. so i can need nt be in camp for a few days and make myself free for celebration. thank God for good buddy who is willing to swap with me if i tio guard duty that day.
also this month guard duty i got 7 points!!! how in the world did this guy plan 7 points for us. 2 weekend guard duty and 3 weekday. sigh. the only plus point to this whole guard duty thing is that all my weekday guard duties are on tuesday or thursday which means that i get to skip life run the next day and i don get to go for nights out which means i get to save money.
not that i don like life run and exercise. just that in camp some time you just want to relax and do nth. beside this week everyday i have been booking out and booking in and quite taxing on my transport since i make my way to camp myself. so i am looking forward to saving more this month instead of spending alot.
