its easter sunday. the day where we celebrate the resurrection of christ. hey and ho!
i had a little too much lager just now .. im wretching badly. ho ho ho and a bottle of rum. makes me tipsy, not sober but a drunk. gimme a bottle of vodka and i'll show you how to down it BY THE BOTTLE. gimme a bottle of beer and i'll show you how i cant.
i was staying in me comfy old house today because im living on a lean hundred bucks a month. and i spent more than i third of it on good friday. clubbing makes u broke, smoking makes u bankrupt. its a grim life outside mindef because of the petty allowances you get. i guess i've complained this a million times. i get 350 and i spend 220 on transport and food just for that 8 to 5.30 job. isnt that just so sad? yes.. im free after 5.30 and i watch lots of tv. its a good life for me. i go to phuture and meet bootylicious babes. but the serious thing is that im a penniless freak and the girls like the guys with big bucks and fast cars. im a guy with big bucks and fast cars ........... in the next 10 years. Not now. im a poor army guy now.
so the past few days have been pleasant. three days of break makes you wanna forget about work and disappear in self indulgence. i hope i lose my way to work on monday morning . then i can go home and sleep and go into more self indulgence and they can sue me and kill me and charge me for awol. then i can just die in DB. just like the guy from the 3rd battalion GUARDS who tried to commit suicide but UNFORTUNATELY didnt die but broke his balls and is happily waiting to get his kidneys skewered by the jail wardens like potatoes on a barbeque pit. THE WORLD IS A GRIM PLACE TO BE IN.
but im a happy guy and im feeling a bit tipsy on a good old easter sunday morning.

ive come to realise why women work in the army.
1. The military is somewhere tt will gurantee you a good life (financially) if you work long enough for it.
2. They are all looking for colonels to marry them and then enjoy a good life (financially)
Boss was away most of the time today so it was pretty slack today. i was just reading lots of documents and re-filling my waterbottle half the time. i guess ive finally adapted to mindef life. at least i dont feel all sick, uncomfortable and tired when i reach home at the end of the day, like what i felt for the past few days. I think im quite a fast learner, cuz ive assimilated much into the branch and blended in with the others. Those long tea breaks, talking cock sessions, reading articles on the intranet, sleeping during lunch time. I even went to work out at the gym today. really good life, i might say. im gonna go swimming during lunch time next week.
its games day tomorrow. which means ive only got halfday of work. didnt manage to read or print the email, but i heard from jx tt im in touch rugby and another game. Fun
talking about fun. they spelt my name as Brian Fun. FUN! what the hell
and friday's good friday..

hi. this is a tribute to my section head- major trevor.
(sickeningly similar to those scholarship essays)
I am a motivated and empowered individual with a tenacious mind and a willing personality. As a future scholar, I will optimize my two years by contributing as much as I can to the SAF. i see myself progressing as an ASA in terms of job experience, maturity and technical expertise. Being able to work in a team builds upon my strength and engages me to step forward and voice out my opinions. I believe that this would cultivate me as a team player and strengthen my mental perspicacity and initiative. In fact, i see this as a good opportunity to learn and upgrade myself. I am absolutely excited about my new post. the informal work-discussion setting is conducive both for recruits and officers to share their ideas for the betterment of the department.
ok.. tts about some ideas about my goals for this two years. im at g-1 army at mindef HQ. im hobnobbing with the big fucks all around. screw u piffy 2LTA all around. me colonels will grind ur balls with a paper shredder.
its quite a good life over at HQ. the major and capt's all very friendly. early just morning, they transferred me and philip to G3 and we were practically surrounded by female clerks. so u get to know what the good life means. (sadly, im back at G1 with a more masculine environment) i'll get my own desk and play me favourite tunes on the comp. im covering HR stuff.. trends and data and implementations of policies.. they said i'd get to use the gym and the pool if iwant during lunch.. haa. just imagine swimming with a one-star general and accidentally back-stroking his face. tt'll be tantamount to making me wash cups for the rest of this two years.
ok.. practically everything's good except my pay is so pathetic. i'll be spending over 200+ on lunch and transport each month.. which leaves me with 150! or less!! tts like worse than school life. poor, empty pockets , thin wallet, un-withdrawable atm cards.. ughhhh
BADDDD

im going to work in about an hour. Bukit gombak is terribly far.. i cant see the point of travelling there and back everyday. maybe i can go to johor for lunch or something.. urghh .hopefully i can negotiate a deal with the Singapore Armed Forces so that they can put me over at another base. otherwise, i'll see if i can shift over to stay at pasir panjang.
ive been so busy over the past week applying for scholarship that i'd almost forgot that this was my HOLIDAY. not that ive realized it... its gone and over. 12 days just flew away like that. what a waste of good civilian time. what a pity.
anyway, i hope to meet new faces over at my new camp. not dumb colonels or stupid captains that are like twice or triple my age. probably some guys that i can talk cock with, have lunch and fool around. afterall, im like a visitor to a completely new place. A 'western' environment. im an easterner i ought to learn about life in the west..

i am in a brilliant mood. this week has been a good week. i have come to know many new friends that i once didnt bother to talk to but are now buddies of mine. this week i have gotten my results and i am excited about it. i have made my parents happy, my brother glorious, my sister motivated. i am going to pass out from bmt and enter a new phase of life. i am going to meet new people and im going to be a private. i am going to have twelve days of break and im going for a trip. life has never been better..
i wanna thank my good friend mr dear lan zz for this. kinda meaningful to me
Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth.
Worship the Lord with gladness;
come before him with joyful songs.
Know that the Lord is God.
It is he who made us, and we are his;
we are his people, the sheep of his pasture.
Enter his gates with thanksgiving
and his courts with praise;
give thanks to him and praise his name.
For the Lord is good and his love endures forever;
his faithfulness continues through all generation
i was beaming to myself. then i remembered that brownish sheet of O level cert. i remembered how shamefully i stuffed it into my bag and had it lost somehow. so i remembered the agony of having wished for something and having it materialized in my mind. then just the next moment, it's like running water through my fingers and my hopes and dreams are gone. i kept thinking why couldnt i get it right. aiyah. where was my elusive 7A1s i so wanted. to get into rj. or even just the bare minimal to make it to that premier school.
hopes are like dreams and dreams are like water and sometimes you can just paddle the water with your hands while others get to dive and swim in it. i guess i realized that expectations are just stupid psychotic things that can really affect you. So.. what the hell. just aim lower and be in that sort of 'self-denial' until you really get to reach your goal. when u hit it, u feel like a billionaire.

i am praying for myself and my friends. may we not need plenty of tissue paper later.
Answer me when i call to you
O my righteous God
Give me relief from my distress
be merciful to me and hear my prayer
How long, O men, will you turn my glory into shame
How long will you love delusions and seek false gods
Know that the Lord has set apart the godly for himself
the Lord will hear when I call to him
