Edit: Its 12 plus now, barely 2 and a half hours after I first came here. Time seems to crawl by, and its taking eternity. I'm at my cousins house now, and decided to come back before I leave. I've no idea when I'll get internet access again.
It hurts.

February Song.
Where has that old friend gone
Lost in a February song
Tell him it won't be long
Til he opens his eyes, opens his eyes
Where is that simple day
Before colors broke into shades
And how did I ever fade
Into this life, into this life
And I never want to let you down
Forgive me if I slip away
When all that I've known is lost and found
I promise you I, I'll come back to you one day
Morning is waking up
And sometimes it's more than just enough
When all that you need to love
Is in front of your eyes
It's in front of your eyes
And I never want to let you down
Forgive me if I slip away
Sometimes it's hard to find the ground
Cause I keep on falling as I try to get away
From this crazy world
And I never want to let you down
Forgive me if I slip away
When all that I've known is lost and found
I promise you I, I'll come back to you one day
Where has that old friend gone
Lost in a February song
Tell him it won't be long
Til he opens his eyes
Opens his eyes

I haven't felt so carefree, so stress free and all that in a long time! It wouldn't last long though, so just trying to make full use of this moment and prepare myself for more difficult times to come soon.

Just moderated a comment left by a TK Campcraft Instructor, which kind of set me thinking about the Campcraft Competition this year. And I was reading back on my previous posts on the team and all that, about how they went through those 4 to 5 months of training just for 2 days. And to a certain extent, wonder how the unit will be when we reach the next Campcraft Competition come February 2008. And if I were there that day, would it still be the unit I remember from one a half years spent there as an Instructor. Actually, there are so many things I would like to say about the unit now. But, with cadets, and people from other units reading, I'm convinced my thoughts would be better off written someplace else.
Anyway, examinations have been over for a week now. And it's been great. Don't believe all that rubbish people say about being lost after the exams. I rather feel hopelessly lost than be reading how an object's speed may be constant when it is accelerating. Or under what conditions alcohol may be converted into an acid. And what not. Army is 3 weeks away and time just seems to be flying by.
We brought my baby cousin out to East Coast yesterday, and she was building sandcastles and burying our feet. On the way back she kept looking up, so I asked her what she was looking at. So she told me, wearing a cheeky grin on her face, that my hair was funny. Before covering her mouth and giggling. So I told her soon korkor wouldn't have anymore hair left. Guess what she said.
"EEEEEEEE! Botak!"
She'll be 4 in 2 days time, and I love her to bits! =)

Haha, enjoyed my 2 days pretty much, although I kind of miss my family who are away in Malacca. Its a little weird coming home to a house without any noise. My brother is working and by the time he and I get home, we're both too tired to talk to each other. But, my parents will be back tomorrow. I guess time really flies by when you're having a good time and enjoying yourself. Just last week I was wrecking my brains and trying to cram everything in. And now that its gone, it feels, excellent. Work was fine today, it wasn't that tiring. But I feel I do need to replenish abit of rest because I've been feeling tired for some reason. I hope the aunty calls me to work for her again next week, its nice to earn your own money and not always stretch out your hand and ask from your parents. I mean, through like 2 short days of work, I think I can better appreciate the value of every dollar. So I decided to walk to and from the kindergarten rather than take the bus through 3 stops. It saves me 90 cents! =)
There are some really cute kids there, and this lot are pretty well-behaved. One of them called me uncle lor! I must be exceptionally mature and exude wisdom far beyond my years! Wahahahaha
I'm feeling really lazy to exercise and train up. I woke up this morning to muscle aches in my back, thighs and stomach. And promptly dropped the idea of going for a morning jog in favour of pigging out in my bed for an additional hour.
Hope I can catch Celtic-Manchester United early tomorrow morning. Its really difficult for me you know. Having to wake up to watch soccer. Then play with kids. Play soccer, and go out with my baby. How stressful a life! Take care everyone.
FOUR, and counting. =)

Just back from 4 hours of work, it was my first time working. It was tiring but a good experience I suppose. We had to work at a pretty frentic pace because the kids had to complete 3 different pieces of craft work in the span of 1.5 hours over 3 days. And as I was trying to mold the clay for one child, another would be like calling and proudly announcing that he had finished his. And asking me what to do next. Being kids, they decided that they would rather have fun than bring home a nice art piece so it was frustrating at times. There was this boy who took his work and smashed it on the table, and at the moment I wanted to scream at him because the base of the clay vase actually came off. But yeah, I guess working with kids is still much more exciting than probably working as a banquet waitor, fast food restuarant personnel or what not. The pay isn't that fantastic, but it gives me something else to do rather than allow my ass to rot away at home. When the 4 hours finally ended at 2pm, I just breathed this sigh of relief. I hadn't taken a sip of water in 4 hours and all I wanted to do was plonk myself onto a sofa or chair in an aircon room and stone, or sleep. Not trying to scrub the mess off the tables left by the kids. Was it really that bad, not exactly lah. It was fun working with kids who are cute. I mean, I would be extremely proud of myself if I made a clay vase by myself when I was in Nursery (although it was actually all done by the helpers..)
I love cute children! See!
Okay, that's all for today, I'm tired and all I want to do is sleep like a pig!

Had a bad weekend, first we had some problems and the entire of yesterday I was beset by this terrible headache, from the moment I woke up at like 7 plus all the way till I dozed off at 10 at night. 3 panadol tablets and a 3 hour nap wasn't enough to cure it. To a certain extent, I still kind of feel a little bit of the symptoms that its going to be back today. My family left for Malaysia and my brother started his temporary job after his ORD. When's my turn? I'm going off to work for a short 4 hours, helping my church member who's teaching somewhere near my house. Time is really passing so quickly after the exams have ended, and in no time I will be stuck on the sunny island of Pulau Tekong. When I was in NPCC, I really dreaded the sight of Pulau Ubin, now it'll be something else.
Anyway, I don't really have any mood to blog these few days, so yah.

And, this fugly blog template of mine is really irritating me. Is ripping of blogskins stealing intellectual property? I saw one I really liked, and I'm so tempted to copy and code and edit it.

There's so many questions on my mind, so many doubts. So much I would like to say to you, but are you even there?

General Paper is over. The only topic I studied for came out. The downside being that like almost everyone I know actually did the same question, which equates to my grades being pulled down. But nevermind, I'm confident that my content is going to give me an edge! Don't know what laparoscopic surgery is right. I know! Haha, kidding only. Wish everyone whom I know all the best, be it for O or A Levels.
Anyway, I did a quick browse through my posts for the past few months, and I've really got no idea what I'm writing sometimes. Anyway, I'll do a super long one once my examinations end. Just 2 more weeks!
