Unforgettable.

Everytime I hear this song.. I feel so touched.

Music of the old generation really is music..
And i really hope the new generation of music can produce this kind of music instead of the mashed music they're repeatedly using!

"That's why darling..
It's incredible..
That someone so.. unforgettable..
Thinks that I am.. unforgettable too.."

Mood.

CIRCLE OF LIFE
- Elton John

From the day we arrive on the planet
And blinking, step into the sun
There's more to be seen than can ever be seen
More to do than can ever be done

Some say eat or be eaten
Some say live and let live
But all are agreed as they join the stampede
You should never take more than you give

(Chorus)
In the Circle of Life
It's the wheel of fortune
It's the leap of faith
It's the band of hope
Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the Circle, the Circle of Life

Some of us fall by the wayside
And some of us soar to the stars
And some of us sail through our troubles
And some have to live with the scars

There's far too much to take in here
More to find than can ever be found
But the sun rolling high
Through the sapphire sky
Keeps the great and small on the endless round

(Chorus repeats)

On the path unwinding
In the Circle, the Circle of Life.

20 months left!

POP LOH..!!

9 weeks of BMT have passed by so fast.
Getting to know my platoon mates, although I doubt we'll keep in touch due to army life anyway, was a pleasure. What was more pleasing was that alab's in the same company as I am, yifeng's in my platoon. So far so good. Without them life in the army wouldn't have been the same. Thanks for their help and company whenever I needed them the most =D

Really happy and proud to have completed the 24km march although I must say it was made relatively easier due to the absence of our store items and the time allocated for the march (we woke up at 2am to prepare for the start of the march at 5am).

BMT is just the fundamentals I understand, but these 9 weeks have been nice, despite the punishments and having some uncooperative people but that's okay now that everything's over =D

Now all I can do is rest well during this block leave and prepare myself for the next phase of army - probably as a private. Just so happy and relieved to have completed BMT =D

Special thanks to kai, nam chew who have helped me tremendously through out these 9 weeks =D Nam chew has been really helpful and a good listener. His next buddy would definitely appreciate him I believe, for his pleasant, cheerful and altruist character.

POP TIME: 1600hrs - 1700hrs
BOOKED OUT: 1730hrs
REACHED HOME: 1830hrs

BLOCK LEAVE PERIOD: 120309 - 220309
TO CHECK FOR POSTING ON: 200309 1000hrs onwards
DATE FOR REPORTING AT NEXT UNIT: 230309

But for now, it's rest time!

p.s. going orchard now to meet nic, stuart, quek and kai at orchard at 2130hrs.

Not ok.

Everything's not ok..
And I'm just missing so much of everything.
So much.. Too much.
And wasting so much time on things I dun even know why I'm doing.

Just.. Hope for a better world out there.

A Levels

I dunno how I should feel at this moment. Seeing yifeng, alab and sj getting their certs from principal was kinda envious. They're getting close to full points, but I'm only here with 80. It's not that bad, but it's not that great either. I'll just see the courses available and stuff I guess. But at this moment I dunno. I can't feel anything at all. There just seem to be more important stuff than all the shit that I went thru last year.

I havent talked to yongjie and zhang yet, about their results but I hope they're doing ok. It's just a small step in life I know, but it's still a setback nonetheless. Hope they'll carry on strength to strength. =D

p.s. Went to watch 'watchmen'. Story line's quite interesting. Waiting for new movies to come out! Especially the horror film that we saw during the ads.

: Just wanna thank all those who have made me feel better.

Feeling: A Levels' no more. Fuck the jc life. Fuck the A levels. Just lookin' forward to P.O.P.'s next week =D
