Today went to my new camp (Jurong Camp). The 5 of us met together at Boon Lay mrt station and took the bus over. Farking dam a lot of people sia, almost could not squeeze my way into the mrt and even the queue of the bus was so long. Worst part is that now is just the school holidays... imgaine how hard it would be to go to camp once school starts and all the students will be clogging up the bus and mrt as well. Hope the situation was only this bad today and will improve.

All I could say about my new camp is really demoralising. Could be due to the fact that we were spoilt in OETI so when we came here, everything seem so different. There is no chance for you to nap at all, everyday can only book out at 6pm even on Friday. Compared to last time which was 5.30 everyday and 5pm on friday. I guess we were are too used to the slack condition in OETI so when our usual privileges were taken away, we were not used to it. Worst of all, a lot of the instructiors here reminded me of mohan, if you know him you proberly could guess what happen. Our morale was dropping throughout the whole day and a only shining becon was that the weekend is approaching...

Anyway hopefully things will improve over time and I got to go now. Meeting Yong Fa, Joe and Kian Boon to go JB tonite. =P

If you ask me to describe my mood today, I guess I cant really give you a definate answer. Having mixed feelings about all this. After 3 months of being in the same platoon, the close friends and fun I had in OETI would never have been the same without everyone. Jing Ze, whom quickly became one of my best friends having very common interests as me. Man Yiu, whose jokes I'm sure to miss and must really thank him of getting me out of tight spot from time to time. Cant never forget the traits challenge we did together =D My buddy Xiang Yong was always very nice to talk to and I must thank him for always helping me open my locker for other people who need to get stuff from me. Good friends such as Joe, Tsz San, Yi Sian, Joshua, Wee Tee, Wen Wei, Chin Sheng and Tsz Lai. However, my learning in OETI would not have been such a memoriable one if I was not in such a wonderful platoon. Hence I would like to thank everyone in BTT 23, ATW Platoon 3 for being a bunch of such nice people.

So what basically happen today was we had a debrief in the morning, clearing of lockers, destribution of certs and finally our posting to our new camp. Just as expected, most of the people whom I am very close with in OETI will being going to a different camp from me. I am posted to 3 DSMB and at least there is Wen Wei and Tsz Lai going there as well. A time have finally come to part and I am sure paths will crossed once again, so I wish everyone all the very best.

We were dismiss around 12pm, so a couple of us decided to spent this last day we had together before all going to different camp. 7 of us, Jing Ze, Joshua, Wen Wei, Chin Sheng, Wee Tee, Amos and myself went to eat a lunch buffet as Sakura. I must admit the food was really great and I really stuff myself till I was bloated. (According to Jing Ze) Anyway we all had a great time chatting and eating at the same time.

After that, Chin Sheng and Amos went home while the rest of us went to paradiz to play dota. Play a total of 3 games and really seriously had a lot of fun. It was around 7pm and was time of me to go for my ndp training, so we say goodbye to each other and I went off to Kallang.

Friendship is a strange thing....
We find ourselves telling each other the deepest details of our lives...
Things we don't even share with our families who raised us...
I call you my friend. A word so small...
Yet so large in feeling...
A Word filled with emotion.

It is true, Great things do come in small packages.
Once the package of friendship has been opened, it can never be closed...
it is a constant book always written...
waiting to be read...and enjoyed.
We may have our disagreements...
we may argue... we may concern one another...
friendship is a unique bond that lasts throught it all...

Friendships forged are a construct stronger than steel built as a foundation....
necessary for life...
and necessary for love...

Take Care All To All The Friends That I Have Met In OETI, Just Want To Say That You Guys Have Touch My Life In One Way Or Another...

Morning went all the way to ajunied to buy second hand death note comic 1-8 from a guy who sold them quite cheaply to me. Althought it is a bit on the far side but I could save quite a bit of money rather than buying them brand new.

After meeting him, went to Lot 1 and pick up death note book 9,10,11 and bleach 21 and 22. Unfortunately, bleach 20 is still out of stock. After that went to Hairi house. Mainly to get all his 85 bleach episode XD But at the same time we played Oblivion and also watch some dragon ball Z. Well the anime is not that bad but if you asked me, would haf prefer bleach and naruto to dragon ball. lolx

Than in the evening, went to lot 1 yet again to have father day dinner with my parents. After dinner went shopping on my own and ended up buying a bleach 2006 annual art book which around 16 bucks and 2 bleach figurines which cost 5 dollars each. Been spending a lot of money this weekend including on the bbq and the cc.

Than today when I went to westmall, bought bleach book 20 and the rest of the bleach figurines which set me back by another 25. And last of all, I bought a deathnote which look exactly like the one in the comic book. Which cost me yet another 10 dollars. Already withdrew $130 to pay for all my expenses and shopping needs during this short short weekend. Got to really control my spending for the rest of the month otherwise my ns pay will definately not be enough... Btw uploaded some photos of the things I bought here.... Nice? XD

The friday bbq made me wanted to go out more with the cathdrains so since Thor, ChioBu, Dythe and the rest wanted to play dota eariler before the woe. So I met up with Thor at 1 pm at town, soon after ChioBu and Dythe came. After grabbing a quick bite at Long John, we went over the CC. Did I mention the hesleys chocolate pie rocks? lolx =P

Than we started opening the comps around 2 plus and started playing dota as soon as enuff people came. After 2 rounds, switch back to ro and went pvp with thor and sara. After that session of pvp, REALLY REALLY MADE ME wanted to play back ro. Must really try to bot back my pala and make a come back in ro... hehe...

Unfortunately could not join them for woe since I got to go to the national stadium by 6.30 for ndp training. As soon as ndp is over I will join their weekly woe sessions provided ro is still alive after ndp is over. lolx

After training actually wanted to go to my platoon bbq, but after training, they were already preparing to go home. So I called Thor they all instead, but they will only going for dinner and going home after that. So no point of me joining them too. What a way to spend a weekend nite =(

Friday evening got cathdrians bbq at jesse's house. The whole thing started since 1pm and there I was sitting in camp hoping for flexi off so I could join them asap. Stupid instructors keep us back for so long but in the end really did not do anything. By the time I reach jesse's house was already 6 plus. Anyway chatted around with old friends and met the new cathdrians who join after I retired from odin. Had lots of fun chatting and catching up on old times, talking about the good old days in ro. lolx.

Food was also very good. Hazel took most of the corn, I oni managed to get a small piece for myself =X And some of the good food were so fast to go, such as the bacon and aperagus which I also had oni 1 stick XD But at least I managed to eat my fill of the rest of the food.

Also had lots of fun chatting with Jesse's sis and bro, in fact spent more time chatting with them than with Jesse herself @_@ The whole thing ended around 10++ with a grand finale of trying to get eru into the pool. Unfortunately he pull off a matrix and just when he look as though he was gonna drop in, he bonce back out... Awww...

Most of them wanted to go home after that, so a couple of us who still think it was early to end the night, went over the bukit timah plaza and played pool. Had a fun game playing against feeder Thor =P And it was 11 plus before all of us called it a day. Really had a good time and I made a promise to myself to play back ro if I could spare the time ^^

Than last week during the flexi off, went with Jing Ze and Tse San to Chinatown K-ster to sing. Quite cheap sia, $12 per person for 4 hours of singing. If next time anyone going to K-box or something, rmb to ask me along. Promise I wont spoil ur ear drums... too much =P
After that, went to meet Joshua and the others for dinner at Fish and Co. Really enjoyed the seafood platter. Actually we din not plan to meet up with Yong Fa and gang but we ran into them over there too. So ended up we had some sort of platoon outing with almost half of the platoon there. Basically we walked around town and finally played some pool before heading home. Not a bad way to spend a flexi off... hehe

Btw, met Zhuang on the way home, always nice to meet up with an old friend. He attached to one of my volleyball juniors and its good to know he is doing so well.

Throughout the week, still feeling kinda upset that I could not go back to NDP yet since I really wanted to take part in this year performance a lot.
But 2 things to be happy about...

1. I PASS MY FINAL THEORY EXAM!!! (so can finally book my test date, unfortunately, the next available date in on the 15 of Sep. 3 months later, so I book for a nice time slot on the 20th. )
2. I FINALLY MANAGED TO SOLVE THE STUPID WATER PLANT PART AND SOLVE THE ALTADOR PLOT ON NEOPETS!!! (just hope the prize is a shiny trophy or at least a limited edition avatar =P)

One last thing, our course at OETI is drawing to an end. All of us will be passing out on the 23th and will be posted to different DSMB. Sure going to miss the strong bond of friendship we had being in the same platoon and gonna miss the close friends that I have made. With luck, I will still be in the same place with most of them but I also hope I could get posted to the Jurong Base. Cant imagine what unearthly hour I would have to get up everyday if I am posted to the Changi base. Anyway, gonna treasure every little time spend with my platoon mates now =D

My world is tumbling down, everything I worked so hard for the past months is being snatched away from me... All because of this cornea infection, everything I been working towards is now gone...

My army sports meet which I been training for months and even managed to qualify for the finals for 100m,4X100m, long jump and triple jump could no longer be carry on. I have let my team-mates and superior down...

NDP which I have been training so hard for... My importance as one of the baseman of the 5 layer tower also could no longer be carried out. I have let my trainers,friends,and fellow participants down...

Now my OETI technician course which is only 2 weeks from completion is also on the line. There is so much I do not want to leave behind. Friends who have been with me in this course from the start...

Why is everything destroyed in an instant just like this...

On the lighter note, yesterday I played 200m Peanut Dash on neopets and managed to make it on the highscore table. And they have awarded the trophy for the game today. Although its just a 2nd place trophy, but this is the first trophy I won in a flash game on neopets. So really quite happy about it...

When my eye get better, I will try again for more trophies =D

Today went back to the doctor for furthur up on my eye. According to her it got worst and there is penetration today. She took 6 scraping from my eye using a needle. And trust me, you would not want your eye to be scrape with a needle. Hurts like hell. Tomorrow got to go back to GH again to follow up. If the test results prove to be bad, I got to be hospitalised. Really hope I can be back to normal soon.

However, today result show that I have a scar on my right cornea. This is permanent and I cant wear contact lenses anymore for life. Not sure if my right eye vision will be affected by this scar but all I can do is wait and pray.

Medication is also a troublesome and painful process for me. I have 2 fluid and 1 cream to apply on my eye every 1 hour. And I have to wake up at 3am in the middle of the night to apply the medication another time before I could continue sleeping...

Please, please let me recover soon and as far as possible I want my vision to be back as normal as possible... please...

Not sure how it happen to me. Anyway my doctor haf diagnos that it is due to contact lenses. My right eye has become bloody red, vision being very blurred. And according to the doctor, there is a defect on my right cornea, a small hole is present. Resulting in great pain that is really quite unbearable.

The past 2 days have been hell, spent most of my eye with my eyes closed, lying in bed for the whole day. Cant do anything at all, even watching tv is out of the question since my eye has become very sensitive to light. Really pain beyond description...

Now a lighter note, its been getting better, but still its very red and my vision is still not back to normal. Hope I can recover soon, got too many commitments to keep.

And my thing is pains me very much is that due to this, i could not take part in the sport heats finals which I have been practisting so long for. I was so confident that I could win something, in the end, months of training have been wasted just like that. Really dunno what to say...
Only hope I could recover soon...
