January 27, 2009

huge backlog of entries to make now, wonderful.
finished serving my country on chinese new year. you know, i actually saw the guy that i’m supposed to replace and quite frankly he didn’t look that sick at all. i was standing in the  guardroom when he came in to apologize to the guard comd (not me, [...]

hai, turns out hrikesh (is that how it’s spelt) is really in camp sick now. apparently he has some 39 degree fever and might not be able to do guard duty tmrw so they called up the reserve. fuck, i didn’t even know it was me until they called during my reunion dinner. if i [...]

oh yay, lightstrike company’s ‘race of the century’ was yesterday.
i was quite disappointed la, most of the old specs didn’t come. in face, none of them did except for ziming. i thought we could all get together and have one last good time. oh well, can’t say i wouldn’t have done the same thing if [...]

what can i do?
January 22, 2009

i’m actually waiting for the next episode of fringe to finish downloading.
you know what i really cannot stand? it’s those people who stand behind my back while i use the computer. due to massive overcrowding, i can overlook all those people in camp who really truly have nothing better to do. what i really am [...]

so glad that i still read. but now that army’s ending i think the volume of books i read is going to drop sharply. there’s nowhere else i can think where you have so much free time and so little to do that you can just read books.
also glad that i no longer read what [...]

Japan – Day 2
January 22, 2009

and the first thing that [...]

fucking scariest moment of my life. thought my  hard disk crashed again, but luckily it was a false alarm.
my mom just dropped a bomb on me just now. she sort of let slip her expectations of me in my post-army life. this isn’t your waste your don’t-waste-your-life, or get-a-job schtick. she’s done that all before, [...]

Japan – Day 1
January 21, 2009

finally got my hands on almost all the pictures (damn you ren en) so i figured might as well put them up before i forget everything that happened over there. every time i go overseas i have a tendency of scoffing at people who go shutter crazy. the words ‘over-enthu’ will flash through my mind. [...]

first most awesome show of the year: REAPER!

to all the suckers crawling along at a snail’s pace on channel 5, haha, i’ve finished it already.
this is probably the best new show that i’ve watched in a long while. it’s light-hearted, heartwarming and definitely funny once you accept the characters for what they are. reaper has [...]
