Life's a miracle

Felt so out of place. Felt so old, away from the usual young atmosphere loitering around. Could it be due to my age?? Everywhere was filled with screams and gorgeous gals waiting for guys to pick up. A typical ACJC indeed. Went to makan cookies and cream ice-cream... A shocking $4!! The oreo milkshake afterwards was not cheap either, considering it tastes literally like oreo blended mixed with milk... urgh... at a whooping $3!! It was crowded everywhere. With no directions to follow, we just walked wherever there's a road leading us somewhere else. As the sky begin to darken, we walked away from ACJC and took a bus to town...

Met up with some JC peeps to go to some NTU carnival to buy charity tickets to help some needy. If not for Mag, my presence would not have been felt. Hahah... As it poured heavily across Cineleisure, we ate chocolate mushmallow and bought some drinks. CK played some games and ate mee siam too. We simply don't know what else we can spend the tickets on, so we decided to leave after a while. Bought chicken cutlet from Shi Lin before bidding farewell to them, & joining Javin at Raffles Place after that. Hung out with him till nearly 12 before heading for home sweet home.

Much has been said about eye infection arising from wearing contact lenses. Bausch and Lomb solutions have been removed from shelves. Thorough investigations are undergoing right now at this moment. This is in contrast to the increasing number of people turning to contact lenses to look more perfect and elegant. I guess I'll still stick to my reliable and not-so-good-looking spectacles for now. No matter what, it's still safer.

It's raining right now as I am typing this post. Why does it always rain on weekends and not on weekdays when I am in camp? It simply spoils the weekend mood. Nevertheless, I am already counting down to my ORD, even though it is still 8 months away. Hope time flies in these 8 months. Cheers=)

M1 has surprised mi yet again yesterday with yet another knocking change to their plans. It used to be that only new subscribers can sign up for the new M1 student plan, but after my feedback a week or so back, they have decided to change the terms and conditions and allow everyone including existing subscribers to sign up!! To thank mi for my feedback, I was given 3 months free caller-id again!! You may be wondering why I am so excited about this plan. What is so special about it... Let's take a look:

• Free 150mins outgoing calls
• Free unlimited incoming calls
• Free WHOOPING 1000 sms... Best part is to ANYONE unlike other operators...
• Free 20 MMS per month for 2 months
• Free UNLIMITED outgoing calls to 3 M1 nos...
• All for just $25.20 per month

And I was further surprised when i was told I would be eligible for loyalty discount, a first in Singapore, for this free incoming plan. I would be given a rebate of $6.25 per month once my handset contract ends. Though it ceases if I purchase a handset, at least I get to enjoy rebates while having no contract, especially since I only intend to purchase handset when I ord dis coming november =) I would be given a handset voucher worth $100 as an alternative too, but doubt I'll be using it...

M1 will also be launching 3.5G by this year, far ahead of Singtel and Starhub. 3.5G has access speeds of up to 9 times faster than current 3G technology. Seems like I won't be upgrading my handset anytime soon too. Shall wait for 3.5G handsets, which will be coming by end of this year!! ^_^

I also received my bill yesterday. As usual, my usage didn't exceed. Sometimes I wonder where people hear the rumours of soaring high M1 bills from. None of my family members has experienced it, and so are the rest whom I know are using M1.

Actually this isn't the first time they have taken my feedback so seriously. About 2 years back, I feedback to them too to introduce a plan similar to Starhub's old MTV plan which provides 1000 sms and half-day free incoming. M1 took about 2 weeks to consider and eventually came up with that plan called Suntext. It was exactly the same package as Starhub's, but it was $9 cheaper. I was of course contacted to see if I am interested. I agreed to the plan immediately, and was awarded 3 months free caller-id too for my feedback. Overwhelmed and joyful was I at that time.

It's this dedication, with excellent customer service (the only operator which you don't have to hold on the phone for hours and can't reach a customer service officer) that has kept mi going on with M1. 1 life. Live it.

Hmm seems to be my 2nd post which I type in camp... Yeah today my unit practically has no one because all officers and regulars are involved in a Battalion Retreat @ Changi chalet. Companies A and B troopers are on block leave and so only a few of us the HQ personnels are left lorz. Don't even know what to do now. Lol... Shall just wait to pass i guess.

Had a really tiring time drying 14 camoe nets on monday wif jack, joachim n lta inderjit. It was till the point where I got sun-burnt and my face was piping hot and red. Lol. Drove around the camp in inderjit's Chevrolet Optra. As the weather was pretty hot, we didn't even dare lie on his seats in the car simply because it was hot too!! haha... It was a tiring yet fun experience especially with inderjit's usual super-duper funny jokes. He's going to clear leave real soon. Will miss his jokes manz.. He also wrote an email to lta jonathan to give us "offs" for doing such a great job. Woohoo~~ He's the man sia!!

Tuesday was an equally weird day. Lazed around the office before going Changi Chalet at 3pm to help unload some stores there lorz. Requested to book out from there and was approved!! While taking bus 2 to Bedok, met YuHian who coincidentally boarded the same bus. Javin couldn't join mi as he could only leave work at 7. YuHian wanted to go Parkway which is really near my house, so we shared cab upon reaching Bedok. With this, I reached home around 6.10pm nia, which is damn early lorz. haha...

Yesterday applied leave. Erm I was forced to. Anyway met up with Amanda for KLunch before we met up with Jenny and go walk walk and had a sip at Starbucks. Had a really great time chatting and fooling around. Treated Amanda to Rhumba lorz because I lost in a match with her at the Pucks game in the arcade. Grr!! Proceeded home after that lorz.

This saturday will be packed with activities sia. Noon going to ACJC carnival, then proceed to Cineleisure for NTU's carnival before meeting up with Javin at 7pm. Hope it'll be another great weekend, not for mi only but for everyone. Cheers!! ^_^

Love has always and will always be the hottest topic among young peeps... It's very obvious some go for the sake of having it -- to show to others that they have the ability to attract the opposite sex, and how well they maintain the relationship... Going to each other's house and even get to know their parents through games like mahjong. Some even got involved in intimate contacts. But is this really necessary?? Of course undeniably some are really in love with each other, however this is not always the case.

I always believe in not wasting one's time. Yeah, you may have the most handsome, doting boyfriend or the most chio, loving girlfriend around, but if you do not even love him/her for her personality and is using him/her as a flower vase, why bother?? You will still have friends to mingle with on weekends even without a stead... At most, spend some quality time with your family. Afterall, would you even be on this earth right now at this point in time if not for their care over the past 10 to 20 years??

Someone who tried to "chase" mi some time back but failed contacted mi recently. She apparently have found someone who likes her and is willing to dedicate all his time to her. Hmmz all I can say is All the best n hope that you two will have a lasting and fruitful relationship. Though we cliqued very well last time, I thought it would have been better for us to be just friends. Even for now, we'll still be friends won't we? =) All I wanna listen to now is the song Tian Kong by Jolin...

Being single doesn't mean you are not loved at all. There's still love from your family and friends. In fact, their love is more important than anyone else's. They are the ones whom you can confide your problems in, and be assured of a consolation and probably a useful solution.

It's nice to be attached, but it's not nice to be attached to a flower vase. Best wishes to all true love birds. Happy Valentine's Day ^_^

I am gonna be 20 years old soon. Adulthood lies ahead in front of me and it's time to be more mature in thoughts. The past 19 years consisted of several highs and lows. Here's a photo journey of how I have changed, from an innocent boy to an equally innocent guy now... Lol=)


Oh what an innocent boy... and is still so now... Hee
