The Last Day!

Definitely not saying that this is my last day it is however OUR last day under the leadership of Mr Goh Chok Tong as our Prime Minister. His resignation of his government will be coming to effect on tomorrow 12/Aug/2004. For more details about the new government with effect from 8pm 12/Aug/2004 onwards go here.

Had one of the last birthday celebration for one of my friends, Stephen, as of course a Civilian! Went to Suki Sushi @ parkway parade, that place is probably the cheapest sushi/sashimi/teppenyaki buffet around. @ $20++ because I can still use my student pass since my hair is still long. It seems to me our group is getting smaller with each one of us heading into the army, will we be the same as before, only time can tell. Come next week, 4 of us will be heading into ALL MAN's land.

6 more days to BMT and I really can't wait, yet nervous as to what the ARMY has in store for me. Went to Chinatown just now to buy shower foam, toothpaste, toothbrush, pricky heat. Bought myself shampoo and hair wax too to be place at home when my hair eventually grows back. I'm still missing a suitable bag to be called my civilian bag, that is to put all my stuffs that I be carrying into the island also known as Pulau Tekong.

Some of my relatives are worried for me, well, it's kinda nice because it really has been such a long time since I actually felt my relatives caring for me. Like any human being, I am not perfect, it was only till when my grandmother passed away 2 years ago that kickstart my repairing of relationship with my Uncle/Godfather. It means a lot to me on a family kinda way to have him talking to me again!

Initially, I planned to stay in seclusion during my NS life, I realised it is abit, no not abit, it is WAY too long. My friends who were in the army told me it will be hard, because being in an island disconnected from the world will only strengthen my urge to see people I care for, not too sure whether "the one I care for" would know that. As usual, time will only tell on what will happen.

They say if you like someone, tell them or the moment might pass you by, or rather you might regret if you never ever will be able to tell them when they are gone.

1 more day to Singapore's 3rd Prime Minister,
2 more days to Friday the 13th,
3 more days to Saturday,
4 more days to Sunday,
5 more days to Last day as civilian,
6 more days to you-know-what.

Excusez-Moi, as I continue to keep faith, s'il vous plaît.

jh out.~

Name:
Location: Singapore

Not boring not exciting, not lazy not hardworking, not handsome not ugly, not short not thin, not a bad guy not quite mommy's boy either. Regular Singaporean guy who like most guys probably get several different colours of the same shirt, t-shirt, berms, jeans once they fall in love with a particular design. Been through the era of cassette tapes of walkmans to discmans(remember the anti-shock technology) as well as MiniDisc(coming out at a bad time) which obviously lost to the emergence of mp3s and the CD to LD which saw LD losing out to VCDs. Next came the DVDs which 0wned the vcds and try to act smart by having 2 groups, HD DVD and Blu Ray. 2 words BLU.RAY. Loves to reminisce the old days when A&W rootbear float was still around and KFC was still a restaurant complete with waiters serving you Kentucky Fried Chicken. The days where bus fares were 10 cents for students and pizza hut's lunch buffets. Moves/dances to the jumpy music of Ipod Ads and likes to laugh at the Hello I'm a Mac, Hello I'm a PC advertisements!
