Jealous

From secondary school to jc to army, i always put in my heart to help out people i love, help out people i think they deserve in my life. This is because i always though its a virtue to help people, and zhu ren wei kuai le zi ben. But i realise i always end up feeling unhappy about it, because....

I cant stand people better than me. I cant stand people doing better than me. I cant stand people being better than me. Despite all of these, i still help people as much as i could everytime.

But why doesnt i get all the good things, why is it me ending up being the one feeling like shit. WHY! WHY! WHY!

"Overseas"

Finally went "overseas" with my group of best friends after so much of talk but no action! Not far this time, but at least we manage to go over to malaysia just to celebrate both yuklum and jolene birthday. We met up early in the morning to take a bus from woodlands straight into JB. The theme for the day is WHITE!

When we reach the custom, We were really amazed by the crowd. Luckily we are able to just scan our passport at the singapore custom due to the new system. IDIOT FRIENDS still say i am a drag to the group cause i didnt have the new passport, BUT i clearly remember me using the system when i went over to tioman that time. HAHA!!! Anyway, the worst part of the trip is at the malaysia custom. NO AIRCON, CROWDED, WARM, SLOW, FRUSTRATING! OMG!! I really dont understand why they cant do anything to revamp their custom, its such a turn off for people going into their country.

We on our way to city square!

When we finally reached JB after one hour of waiting, we immediately had our lunch there. Then we shop around at city square and holiday plaza after that. We were depesrately looking for the NICE DVD there while cl and jo were having their manicure.

We went to a vey nice retuarant for our dinner at the peking house. First time eating such with my dear friends. But was quite irritated when we were arguing on what to ordered, shouldnt we compromise a bit? Haha! Whatever the case, it was still quite a enjoyable dinner, however cl got a really bad gastric pain, and yuheng still say its such she is jsut unlucky! haha

Birthday girls fake blowing the cake!

Me with everyone!

ORD

It has been a very very long time since i last blog. Just couldnt find the motivation to blog, or rather i am just too lazy to think of what i have to write. But i finally found a little bit of urge to write something. There is just too much things on my mind, and i guess i will just start with the big event that just happen in my life, which is my Operational Ready Date(ORD)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

These bloody and slow 2 years of National Service had finally finished. Throught these 2 year, i learnt a lot, gained a lot, lost a lot.

I learnt how to be much more independant these two years, i learnt how important my family is to me, i learnt how to communicate with people more, i learnt how to cherish people around me more, i learnt how to be more organised, i learnt how to dive, and the list goes on.

I gain new strong friendships, i gain more confident of myself, i gain more respect, i gain new knowledges, and the list goes on.

I lost a lot of weight, i lost a lot of sweat.

To really think back, a lot of things really take place within these short 2 years. I am really pleased that my this 2 years past so smoothly without much setbacks and obstacles. I guess is because i had really good superior, colleagues and friends around me.

People always complaint how sucky army can get, but i think there is definitely a good part of army that you cant get it in the outside world. Seriously, i of course wont want to go throught this 2 years again, once in a lifetime is enough. =)

ORD is just the end of one part of my life, now is the new beginning, the more challenging one ahead of me.
