Here i am, blogging on a saturday night..sadly, a "no life" feeling up-arising.I wouldn't say today was spent meaninglessly..at least i had a lousy driving lesson which i spent struggling with the clutch..and then swimming with shawn which was slightly better, but a bit more lonely without Spencer..who's flying of for Aus tonight..bon voyage spency boy~
Parents as usual out busy with Rc event downstairs..
hmm..what should i say? Life has been pretty busy nowadays with quite a number of commitements in the Bn...but thankfully i can enjoy the freedom my weekends still :) just can't wait for Army open house to end so that i can rest...after that Wallaby..and then ORD!!
mixed feelings about ORDing..while i'll be free from the regimentation of the army, It'll be another step toward adulthood..haha..im sure most of us will lament how time seem to fly nowadays..gonna be 20 soon...21 will fly past too im sure...more responsibilities, more work, more regrets.

Heres little derrick khoo.lolz..lets see,he's about...1 month old..
Babies are really damn adorable,especially if its a next of kin..looking at the baby just made me feel damn old..like its time to take life more seriously, to undertaking the responsibilities of an adult, to stop procrastinating and wasting my life away.
"Life is a series of pulls back and forth,you want to do one thing, but you are bound to do something else,somethings hurts you, yet you know it shouldnt. You take certain things for granted, even when you should never take anything for granted. A tension of opposites, like a pull on a rubber band. And most of us live somewhere in the middle. Life is a wrestling match. Which side wins? Love wins, love always wins. The way you get meaning into your life is to devote yourself to loving others, devoting yourself to your community around you, and devote yourself into creating something that gives you purpose and meaning. Thats life."an excerpt from Tuesdays with Morrie. This really inspired me..hope it has the same effect for you guys too! :D

Listening to this song sung by Tank now, "zhuan1 shu3 tian1 shi3".A nice and soothing song.Amazing how music has been integrated so much into our daily lifes.Don't think i can survive without it..hahaz..Booking in again in 3.5hours times....thankfully i have the luxury of a car lift from Joseph's dad,don't think i can stand another 45 minutes ride just to catch another cab into camp..hahaz.Will be busy next week attending a combat casualty course,which means i will have to learn how to inject a syringe into a patient and put him on a drip....interesting but still,i feel some apprehensiveness.Then the following week,Atp and ROC!hopefully everything will run smoothly and i will learn much from this trip.
Another turning point has just etched itself into my life,and i guess i still need time to get used to it.I think i will do fine,don't worry guys,Thanks for yr support ya. (:

HELLO!
yes its me again.Updating again after so much..hmm 10 of March, what a day...so many events happening today..Elaine's birthday(HAPPY BIRTHDAY ELAINE!!),OCS commisioning(CONGRATS TO YG),IT fair,NUS NTU open house and the Once in a blue moon IC2 Specs gathering!!thanks to Joseph,that bhb guy who tagged that organised it. needless to say, i chose to spent time with my fellow IC2 specs,forsaking all the other events and im glad i did :) Had a great time meeting up with all of them,and zavier and Warrant John made a special appearance,the latter whom bought us about 12 cans of tiger the moment he arrived..lolz.
sometimes, i wonder why most regulars like smoking and drinking, maybe becoz of the regimentation of the system that made them feel depressed with no avenue to release their oppressions?its only been a short 11 months for me,but i already feel jaded.guess army life is not really for me..hahaz.
well,tired to blog further,think i'll start blogging more often from now on.maybe.

Its been long since i've penned down a coherent sentence,much less a proper essay...felt the creative juices flowing(which hasn't happened for a long long time)..thus this entry.
well,i've just passed out from sispec..got my corporal rank after an overnight 28km route march..wasn't as easy as it seemed..i realised that i've been smiling alot less ever since i graduated from JC...maybe its the regimentation of national service,maybe its the realisation of the fact that i am grown up now..i have a duty and responsibility to take care of my loved ones..I feel both apprehension,fear and anticipation..rather ironical..but that's my character i guess..everchanging and fickle.Drives Ms lee mad most times..haha..now and then i try to enjoy,relax, simply basking in the fun of the moment..time in which i can listen to my songs lying on the bed,having a good night's rest and a good book..most recently Tuesdays with Morrie..the book taught me alot about life,how to love people around you.I took notes even..truly an enjoyment to read.But then reality isn't always as smooth-sailing..in fact i am still trying hard to learn,to be a better person.My posting orders were to signals,a seemingly slack vocation with less physical training..a sigh of relief i guess..but also gone is the pride of being a specialist that really walk the ground,motivating his men,doing all the shit we did together in bslc.tears flowed when we bidded farewell to each other yesterday,its a wonder how tough training bonds people together..i remember Hendric's saying "what doesn't kill you will only make you stronger" how true it is.
speaking of Hendric reminds me of Odac in Aj, i hope everyone is doing fine now...been through alot of shit with them too,both physical and mentally..haha..thanks to a great man who had his own principles and led by example,Mr Lim.Basically everyone went on different paths upon graduation.Some went overseas for their education,some proceed to serve the nation,some continue their local studies.hmm..lets see what i can come out for them..great bunch of people..
Hendric-The very first epitome of a great leader i've seen,someone who really ensures and cares for others..a guy which i respect.
Elaine-A motherly figure who is willing to sacrifice herself for the good of others,a very sentimental person..always concerned,always there to lend a hand...
Shinghuay-my buddy! likes to let her mind wander..but another kind and generous soul..always sensitive to feelings of others and helpful..a great person who constantly puts others above herself..a tough person who can overcome all obstacles.
Anisah-a quiet person..but to me she was the brains of Odac during our batch..always the one with well thought-out ideas and solutions..Odac wouldn't be the same without her.
Wingsing-a selfless person who really sticks to his principles..a fiery person with great passion for things he is passionate about...a generous soul with loads to offer to people around him
Shiqi-the fastest female sprinter in odac,always giving,a sentimental person who is not shy to show her true self,likes to offer others food...a person which made our batch more colourful..haha..
Jason-The master thinker of Odac,always articulate and clear-minded,someone who's advice i always trust.Always a great friend to have,but has evident gemini characteristics..haha,but a great man
Spencer-the quiet all-rounder,always the one to look out for details, an extremely careful person, damn smart and the lady's man in Odac.A guy that really runs like the wind,the tireless fella that learns really fast.
Ying Guang-An old time friend since days in Vs,the backbone of Odac if i would believe,an extremely strong pillar of support,someone who's always outstanding.Strong both physically and mentally,a guy whos true to himself and others.
Joseph-the smooth talker, a very steady person who knows what he wants from life,someone who always lightens up the atmosphere with his mere presence.Also a very smart guy with great fitness..another person who made life in Odac much more exciting.
Jonathan- the scholar of the batch, extremely smart and extremely pro in soccer..haha..very humble guy who never cease to lend a helping hand to those in need..a great guitar player too!
Yanlin- the dynamo behind Odac, someone who works hard and plays harder..good in almost everything she is interested in, a brash person that is extremely honest,a typical female whom i vision to be as good,if not better than her male counterparts.
Shujuan!the sunshine.With a sunny disposition, she never fails to put a smile to any person's face she meets.An extremely analytical mind lies within her seemingly bigger than normal head,which explains her uncanny talent for mathematics.happily attached to WL,my great buddy.
Shawn-the talented learner, someone who can pick up things exremely fast and extremely well,someone who nver cease to impress me since the first day we met.Also the most humble person i have met.Also a very good teacher with an extremely good temper.
Huiling- the artist in Odac, truly one endowed with great artistical skills..she is also the most hardworking person i have ever met..has the ultimate ability to separate her mind from her body,thus acheiving feats like sleeping while standing and pushing on trekking even though her body's capabilities are spent and her only way of moving is through crawling.
Well,thats about it.My 21st Batch of fellow Odac instructors.Just a brief introduction.I learnt so much from all of them.Everyone was sincere,trusting and nobody complained during times of crazy shit.Its no wonder we are the best :D
well,time to stop cause i have to go to satay club to meet up with my sispec mates now..another great bunch of people.I feel lucky to have met so many people- Odacians,my 3 great buddies,Ms Lee,Sispec mates.One day i shall write about all of them..

again it's been such a long time since i"ve blogged...well..i wouldnt have touched this blog again if not for yanlin's reminder 4 me to keep blogging so that she'll know what all we've been doing...haha..so give yanlin face man...
anyway yanlin's of for Australia for her overseas education..on PM scholarship (papamama) haha...and huiling also..to New Zealand...many ppl feel envious..but i feel that it will be a challenging trip for them this time round..all alone with so many things to adapt to...the fortunate thing is...technology!! can always catch up with frens and family online..so easy nowadays..and another lucky thing is that they are odac girls..most known for being strong :) so they should be heading for greener pastures...
just started my apprenticeship in my uncle's computer shop..working for him without drawing salary..but picking up computer skills along the way..even though it's not really a bed of roses..i felt at ease,and enriched by all e knowledge my uncle and uncle's wife imparted...very greatful :)
just realised how naive and immature i had been...these previous few months had taught me that there's more to life than what i use to think it encompasses..now is the time to spend more time and effort on learning skills and improving myself while i have the chance..maybe some things shouldn't take up such an important role in my life now...thanks to that special someone for the reminder :)
my brother is getting married soon!! 11 MArch Furama...its going to be such an exciting affair...really looking forward to it...but quite sad too..coz bro going to move out liao..then i'll be sleeping alone..but then i pity my sis more..coz i'll be enlisting soon..and she'll really be by herself man..poor girl
how i wish everything could be back to how it was,but even if my wish came true,would it be better for us?is this just a learning journey?i'll accept everything that's coming my way, and pray that the rain ends soon,and the rainbow come shining

The park bench was deserted as I sat down to read Beneath the long, straggly branches of an old willow tree. Disillusioned by life with good reason to frown, For the world was intent on dragging me down.
And if that weren't enough to ruin my day, A young boy out of breath approached me, all tired from play. He stood right before me with his head tilted down And said with great excitement, "Look what I found!"
In his hand was a flower, and what a pitiful sight, with its petals all worn - not enough rain, or too little light.
Wanting him to take his dead flower and go off to play, I faked a small smile and then shifted away.
But instead of retreating he sat next to my side And placed the flower to his nose and declared with overacted surprise, "It sure smells pretty and it's beautiful, too. "That's why I picked it; here, it's for you."
The weed before me was dying or dead. Not vibrant of colors, orange, yellow or red. But I knew I must take it, or he might never leave. So I reached for the flower, and replied, "Just what I need."
But instead of him placing the flower in my hand, He held it midair without reason or plan. It was then that I noticed for the very first time that weed-toting boy could not see: he was blind.
I heard my voice quiver, tears shone like the sun As I thanked him for picking the very best one. "You're welcome," he smiled, and then ran off to play, Unaware of the impact he'd had on my day.
I sat there and wondered how he managed to see A self-pitying woman beneath an old willow tree. How did he know of my self-indulged plight? Perhaps from his heart, he'd been blessed with true sight.
Through the eyes of a blind child, at last I could see the problem was not with the world; the problem was me. And for all of those times I myself had been blind, I vowed to see the beauty in life, and appreciate every second that's mine.
And then I held that wilted flower up to my nose and breathed in the fragrance of a beautiful rose and smiled as I watched that young boy, another weed in his hand about to change the life of an unsuspecting old man.

Each morning I wake up and say to myself,you have two choices today. You can choose to be in a good mood or you can choose to be in a bad mood.' I choose to be in a good mood. Each time something bad happens, I can choose to be a victim or I can choose to learn from it. I choose to learn from it. Every time someone comes to me complaining, I can choose to accept their complaining or I can point out the positive side of life. I choose the positive side of life.
Life is all about choices. When you cut away all the junk, every situation is a choice. You choose how you react to situations. You choose how people will affect your mood. You choose to be in a good or bad mood. The bottom line: It's your choice how you live life

extracted from shawns blog..tink its very very meaningful!
Standing for what you believe in, Regardless of the odds against you, And the pressure that tears at your resistance, ... that's Courage
Keeping a smile on your face, When inside you feel like dying, For the sake of supporting others, ... that's Strength
Stopping at nothing, And doing what's in your heart, You know is right, ... that's Determination
Doing more than is expected, To make another's life more bearable, Without utterign a single complaint, ... that's Compassion
Helping a friend in need, No matter the time or effort, To the best of your ability, ... that's Loyalty
Giving more than you have, And expecting nothing But nothing in return, ... that's Selflessness
Holding your head high, And being the best you know you can be When life seems to fall apart at your feet, Facing each difficulty with the confidence That time will bring you better tomorrow's and never giving up, ... that's Confidence
To the question of your life, You are the only Answer. To the problems of your life, You are the only Solution.

from kc's blog:
Toa Payoh has this shop that sells comic books. Or you can rent them for 80 cents and read it right there. I checked out the second level and stumbled upon what struck me as a modern-day opium den. Small, enclosed room, people sedated on comic books. Terrible.
Yet so appealing. When I approach 50 Im going to find myself a nice club/society, probably a reading group or a card-game group, and every weekend I'll plonk myself in a small cosy room, coffee on a side table, cards on the big one, quietly amusing individuals seated all around. Mmm.
My most clearly defined aim in life is to retire, with some grace and wealth and possibly some friends, to the countryside in Britain, maybe the US. A charming country manor would be nice--the cost could be split between those with me.
And every morning we would read the papers silently, sipping english tea by the french windows. And then we would have a game of cards before heading out for lunch; the manor would be in the countryside but at still a close distance to a small town. We would then head to one of the many bars in the town and have a drink or two. And we'd talk, and talk. Alternatively, a swim in a lake would be nice--I've always had that fantasy since Land Before Time. We then have Dinner. Dinner with jazz, Dinner at home beside a fireplace, anywhere would be nice. We'll then talk, or watch a show, or have a game of cards, or if a swim in the afternoon was not accomplished we could swim at night. I've always had a fantasy of swimming naked at night since..since dunno when.
Beautiful isnt it. And throughout this last stage of life, I'll be looking back, looking back at everyone, everything. Probably fly here and there to see people.
It's good to have a aim in life.
sounds good kc :)

Only love Jan Wayne
Looking for a window above
it's like a story of love
Can you hear me
came back only yesterday
we're moving further away
won't you near me
All I needed was the love you gave
All I needed for another day
And all I ever knew
Only you
padadadam
This is how we do it
Sometimes when I think of your name
And it's only a game
Then I need you
Listen to the words that you say
Getting harder to stay
When I see you
All I needed was the love you gave
All I needed for another day
And all I ever knew
Only you

never bath for 6 days, tio sand flies,leech bites and uncountable cuts and blisters..ouchhh but still the expedition was great =) learnt alot of trekking,packing and safety tips from the seniors,guides and teachers...
DAY 1/DAY2 Reached the 4 wheel drive area..field cooking was cancelled and we ate chicken rice instead...the journey to the mountain base was great..damn exciting...the big jeep nearly topple over..haha...all was fine until the trek up to base camp..initially i thought the trek would be normal..just a warmup to the trek to summit the next day...oh boy was i wrong...with the freaking 22kg bagpack i felt so heavy..lugging the 6 men tent all the way ...10 HOURS of trekking...tio 4 leech bites on the way up the mountain already..socks became muddy and bloody..damn disgusting..den lunch field cooking was cancelled again..we ate bread...really pity spencer...taking the heavy bagpack with the ice box up the hill and stuff..so small yet take such a heavy bagpack..peifu peifu....then 3 hours before we reach high camp...they were like saying "10mins more" imagine how many 10 mins more we took...grinded us down mentally at the very end...but im glad we peservered =D was the 1st grp that went to set up base camp while waiting for the 2nd grp..really peifu the 2nd grp guys...trekking in the dark and all..decided i wanna conquer the summit...so decided to try for it the next day
DAY3 ascend 2 summit.. the really long trek...13 hours!! initially the turn about time was 1.30p.m ..by then we were supposed to reach the peak..in the end only reached it at abt 3.30p.m...2 hours behind time..but i was really glad we reached the summit..even though the senery was KANASAI and there were absolutely no nice view down...then we started the descend..where the real trek started...the trek in the dark...quite scary really..alot of visual illusions in the dark..once in a while you think that u saw a human figure right in front of u...when it was actually a plant or tree...then going up and down so many ridges..very tedious and very long...my mind started thinking abt alot of things ..happy stuff...and this particular quote "when the going gets tough, thats when you musn't give up!!"..luckily they sustained me!!then we ran out of water..moltivational food...1st time i realised the importance of these seemingly basic items...just when we needed them we're so short of them...would nver ever take water for granted again..then we heard voices at high camp cheering for us...like voices from heaven..haha..that really moltivated us to press on...then finally we reached high camp ..got campbell soup waiting for us...tasted super nice...even better than those restaurant mushroom soup!! serious!!! then i ate like 3 fruits....its one of my favourite food now...in the past i don't even touch them =/
DAY4 descend down..i slidded alot down the slopes...got quite alot of mud up my pants..hahaha..but nearly strained my arm again while trying to break a fall..so heng...don't think anyone knew..haha..but the feeling when we got down to the waterfall camp was WONDERFUL......even better than when we reached the summit...so long never see water already..took the chance to clean off the mud on our bodies..shiok!!!!then we set up camp and slpt...did sentry with hendric..had a nice chat with him while cooking milo...learnt alot of stuff also..abt packing light and stuff...
DAY5 REST day...played with water under the waterfall even though it was damn cold..but still shuang..one of the best day..then we went for lunch in the small town...felt weird stepping on concrete ground again..lol..dinner was SUPERB.was in one of those highway stops....SAW A 6 STAR TOILET WITH PLANTS INSIDE..can even sleep inside....
DAY6 Did caving and white water rafting... caving was alright...e cave was one of those with a small river running thru it...quite cooling although at times we had to crouch on all fours to squeeze thru small tunnels...saw alot of historical drawings on the cave walls too..interesting!!!!
white water rafting was pretty sian...even though the rapids were quite swift we keep getting stuck onto rocks...in the end it was quite sian.......until we started dragging people onto our boat..very interesting..hehe..
DAY7 HOME SWEET HOME....reached S'pore at about 4.45a.m then we went back to school...finished washing up and debrief by 1p.m..when the college is about to close...then went for lunch at S11...drank SUPER BIG GULP..shiok...haha..then home liao..so tired...donno got ppl miss me anot =P
overall it was a terrific trip..an experience of a lifetime..especially the trekking..really pushed us to approach our limits..really impressed by all the peeps ard me..the odacians..they rawk!!

Come on
And finally the silence,
looking out, looking back across the sky,
Trying to find a meaning,
knowing that I just left it all behind
Still I smell a lingering softness
Where did she go, how did she go, I wanna know
I wanna know that she'll be coming here to me
Come on, without you I'll never feel the love inside
of me
Come On, you know that we belong
come on, come on
Thinking back before her,
I never knew the meaning of alone
Still the flag is feeling foreign,
I live the day to escape into a phone
Speaking of a world not real then
where did she go how did she go, I wanna know
I wanna know that she'll be coming here to me
Come on...
She's coming, She's coming here to me, I'm needing,
desiring to kiss her now, I'm living for her,
breathing for her, singing for her fairytale

Unwell
All day staring at the ceiling
Making friends with shadows on my wall
All night hearing voices telling me
That I should get some sleep
Because tomorrow might be good for something
Hold onFeeling like I'm headed for
a breakdown
And I don't know why
But I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell
I know right now you can't tell
But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see
A different side of me
I'm not crazy, I'm just a little impaired
I know right now you don't care
But soon enough you're gonna think of me
And how I used to be...me
I'm talking to myself in public
Dodging glances on the train
And I know, I know they've all been talking about me
I can hear them whisper
And it makes me think there must be something wrong with me
Out of all the hours thinking
Somehow I've lost my mind

First i lost $50 to the locksmith when i returned home without bringing my keys along...and my parents were overseas, so bobian have to call the locksmith and he charged me $50 ... Then the stupid Weeleong TORE away my 10 bucks...yea , not joking he actually stripped the 10 bucks into half..haha...so barbaric..stupid weeleong..hehehe Then i must pay for the odac volleyball (cheapest $20)which i kicked up the MPH roof..haha, but i think the rest of the odacians will subsidise my alot =) they so nice hahaha.. very lazy to write nowadays...very shagged..haha oh yea..my relative from China has came over to stay for a few days. turns out that he wants to watch Singapore's National Day, he's very very good in math and science...haha, then hes sleeping with me in my room...very good...tutorial no fear don't know how to do liao..haha |

yoyo im back haha...well i went through the odac investiture, basically its the jc2s handing over their jobs and stuff to j1s while they retire, we step up...yup The food was okay, music was great but during the whole process of building a relatively simple structure i saw quite a few tempers flare, quite scary in the end the structure stood up but its not really magnificent..haha The the investiture started at about 5pm .Jingxin , Hendric , Mr Lim and Miss Joy Tan made their respective speeches , Hendric and Mr Lim"s speeches had the most impact on me, made me realise how Odac had made me grow as an individual and what BRAVO stands for, and how we need PICARD to acheive it...yup haha. |
Friday, July 16, 2004
| heyee~~ my day was great!! haha..basically this really funny thing happened today..haha , after school i went to find louisa who was with her friends ruina,eileen and shiyin, They were doing pw stuff , so after chatting a bit i went to jeremy who was sitting just beside them,haha turns out he knew all of them , wah he really very sociable man..haha then suddenly we found our minutes for pw gone, the 1st meeting de minutes, search high and low also cannot find ...finally give up then i began rewriting the minutes ..haha Then for don't know what reason Ruina went away for a while, she went to get her erhu i think, then the evil louisa and shiyin began finding places to keep her bag..tsk tsk, jeremy finally kept it in the boy's toilet..hahaha In the end when Ruina came back of course the poor girl began looking high and low for her bag....then they told her Eileen took it..haha after a really long search by Ruina who was basically just asking lots and lots of qns and calling eileen and stuff..haha, finally jeremy went in the toilet and came out carrying her bag..hahaha , he walked out carrying the red bag , laughing and laughing ......... Then they started to bluff eileen through the handphone that she took ruinas bag and i was supposed to see eileen taking ruina's bag to the bookshop... -_-" very very confusing, eileen got hysterical i tink haha and she actually excused herself from Co practise and came down looking for the bag...in the end when she saw the bag intact with ruina she actually screamed..very loudly ...gosh i think thats the 1st time in my life where i actually rolled my eyes...hahaha |
Thursday, July 15, 2004

Once a woman was in labor; she was having a really tough time
dealing with the pain. The doctor came to her husband and her
and told them of a new experimental drug that allows the woman
to transfer 25% of the pain to the father. The husband feels
really bad for his wife so he decides they will try it.
The wife takes the pill and a few minutes later the husband
says, "I don't feel a thing. You women are babies. Take another
pill I can handle this." So the wife takes another pill. Same
thing happens. Her husband tells her to take another pill. Same
thing. By now she has transferred 75% of her pain to her
husband. She is feeling a little pain but her husband is still
feeling nothing. He is convinced that women are complete wuses.
He tells her, "Take another pill. This isn't hurting me at all.
Let me take all the pain away." So she does. Now they are both
feeling great.
A few hours later, the wife gives birth to a beautiful baby boy.
The next day they take their newborn son home, and there they
find the mailman dead on the doorstep.

hey..back..well this entry is about our Pahang Expedition..odac one... damn fun..damn exciting..a totally new experience for me..Great outdoors!! yeayea
1st day..we met at school..removed the decorations for college day, then did a brief bag check and stuff..then we set off the Tanjong Pagar train le..had a meal at Bk before that..had Sushi and stuff also..haha..everyone was in high spirits ..very excited ma...then we waited for the train to come..1st time im sitting on the train from Sg to Malaysia...damn suaku right..hahaha...everyone was too excited to sleep liao..played card games and stuff...then slowly i went to catch some sleep..which in actual fact is damn little only...we checked in at a hotel near the train station..its like a motel really..then i think 8 of us squeezed in the small small hotel room with 2 beds...i had to sleep on the floor...not nice at all...i woke up the earliest haha..others had about one and a half hours of sleep...i washed up..put ointment at my cream..then start doing morning calls le...M-team ma..hai... damn stress .... :X even if its only for a day...
then we had breakfast...had nasi lemak and roti prata..didn't feel very full even though i think i ate the most le :P wahaha the food was okay..then we packed our stuff and went to base camp...DAMN NICE PLACE...i expected a few tents in an open grass field...turns out that base camp was in a rocky place..the environment was beautiful...like a man made shelter like that..then no need to fear rain..haha ..we allocated the tents..then we put all our caving stuff in our day packs..MY bag...haha
Had a quite steep climb...a leech clanged onto my ankle..1st time i see a leech..haha yesyes suaku again..quite small..then i tried to yank it out but failed..luckily it let go itself..must have sucked until its full liao..haha..then i kept slipping and slipping throughout the ascend...Wingsing kept complaining...cannot blame me..its my damn shoes..no friction at all dammit haha
Then after quite a long climb we finally reached the cave...we ON our headlights..cause its very dark inside and slowly all of us entered...the ground was full of small cockroaches!!! haha they burrowed into the ground as soon as we flashed our headlights onto them...the at the top it was full of bats!!!and flies!! hahaha ..water kept dropping on us..should be bat droppings and urine...damn gross la..then basically the floor was full of bat shit ..haha don't dare to touch the ground..but bobian..cause had to get a grip in order to climb.. then i used my dirty shit filled hands to eat my LUNCH OMGOMGOMG but we all did that!! too hungry liao haha
we stopped and stoned for quite long ..waiting for our abseil down...the instuctor said its 25 storeys long...i waited and waited...then the few of us told ghost stories and played the black sheep game..bah bah ..haha had supposed "bonding" session..lol..finally i cannot take it liao..told Spencer we are going to be the next one to go down...the abseiling down was okay...not much of a freefall...just pulled and pulled on the rope to go down...kept slipping at the starting though..haha ...gained a few new blisters on my hands and knees because of that :P
then we reached the ground...turns out that the others below are ALSO stoning..shucks..but at least i gotta eat...so quite nice..then Shuting informed me that as m-team i was supposed to be the last to leave :( shucks..i totally forgot about that..felt quite guilty..hai...
then we waited until everyone reached the bottom..then we continued the caving...the most exciting part is where we had to crawl on our backs through a short but damn narrow tunnel which is about 1/4 filled with water..white shirt become brown lor!! tsk then i pity my poor white bag also..become so brown!! then later i found out that can use rain cover to keep out the mud OMGOMGOMG im so blur!! argggggg
but nevermind..we had great fun..then its another long trek back to base camp...a feast was waiting for us!!! so shiok!!! we ate damn well...then the guys went for a bath in the river..damn chilly man..the water..at most 10 degrees only..haha but it was kinda fun bathing in the chilly and kinda dirty water..but we were already so dirty it seemed relatively clean..hahaha..then the guys helped each other scrub backs..lol
then after that we went to rest le...AS IF...our tent - yingguang shawn spencer me took out all the food stuff and ATE ATE ATE and played taidi..quite shiok...thats it..end of the day...i got relieved of m-team...felt quite good...burden off my shoulders, don't think i did a good job though :(
The next day ..white water rafting...quite a fun day...but the rapids were'nt as exciting as expected..class 1 ma...but a damn funny thing happened...as we were all splashing at each other's rafts..all the different groups...when we passed by another raft..Mr Lim actually ditched the paddle and pulled Huiling out of her raft wahaha..it was damn funny watching her get pulled onto our raft..she was face down then it was like pulling a piece of meat up liddat..lol.. i was laughing so hard...her raft donno row until where liao..haha then Mr Lim made her row the raft for us!! bwahha ..then we had 2 free ppl on our raft...hahaha actually supposed to have one only..damn funny !!! but a saddening thing happened during lunch..Spencer went to the toilet then no one actually chopped his lunch for him..in the end he had to get a new plate..Mr Lim was quite angry about this..he said in the debrief that we only looked out for ourselves and were selfish..made me quite guilty..considering the fact that i knew Spencer went to the toilet..made a resolution to look out for fellow odacians from now on..Mr Lim said quite alot of things also.. about how we regarded the trip as a holiday and not a training camp...its quite true la...at least for me...i didn't really feel any discipline throughout the trip,turning up late and taking our own sweet time etc.. ..hai...tio scolded so many times..Then we went in the train sleeper..omg the bed is like my lover man...can sleep liao...i think i slept the most :P then we reached Singapore..man..what a trip..
