So, I've spent my first bookout weekend with Jacjac and Brother Zijian. We met up at Bugis and began loitering around like lost souls, having to purchase a t-shirt at Praise and having lunch at the local foodcourt. After that, we headed down to City Hall to check out movie timings for Transformers. For the next 2-3 hours, we travelled back and fro from Bugis to City Hall to check the timings but finally gave up the idea when we concluded that many of the tickets have been either sold out or the seats are way too close to the screen.
We headed to a mini restraunt near Funan IT mall for dinner and further loitered around RCCC before heading to Marina Bay for talk cock session. It was a day well spent.
Finally I was able to fold my Fuck 4 into Smart 4, I guess I'll iron the uniform's sides tomorrow morning to let it season faster.
Anyways, I am sleeping soon, seriously exhausted.

BOOK OUT!
First update since enlisted 2 weeks ago!
Army was great, overall. I can't really describe it in words. There are times when it was really tough to get by psychological setbacks but there are also times when we, as a section, a platoon, a company or even a battlion would be able to overcome challanges and obstacles that stood in our way.
Basically, for our PTP phrase, we had strength-cardio exercises daily, that include CPT 1, which is the warm up exercises plus movement drills, and CPT 2, which include pull-ups, crunches and powerjumps plus medicine ball and dumbell training. We also had speed training every once in 2 to 3 days, and also AGR which basically divides us into 4 different groups, A/B/C/D respectively. Being in Group A meant that I had to train harder, run faster and do better, and that the pressure was on us to out perform the rest.
We had our first foot drill practice on day 2 and since I was in UG before, I had a slight advantage many others. We also had area cleaning, tons and tons and tons of water parades, funny times together.
We had our 3rd road march, 3km, today before booking out. I remembered we had our first road march roughly a week ago. It was seriously draining and the aftermath of that march always ends with a dreadful headache that lasts for close to an hour.
Most of my section mates were great people, and that I've worked well with the platoon as well. Only now then I know why they say that when you are in the army, you get to work with people who are different in many ways. And man, how true is that.
Anyways, Mum, sister, Jacjac and Sheryl came see me in during enlistment day, many thanks.
OC reminded us that real HELL is coming this monday, after another 3km road march. I shall remember his 'wise' words. HAHA.
Cabbed home with Yong Quan, bunk mate (:
And gosh, look at the time, it's time for me to sleep, I guess I am just used to the army time to sleep already, good nights everyone!

DAY BEFORE ARMY
Okay, I'm updating at this stupid time is because of two reasons, one is that I can't get to sleep because of tomorrow's enlistment into the army and secondly, it's the only time when I can connect to the Internet. So I'll just summarise what I did today.
Brother Zijian came over for a badminton session and despite the lack of a proper open court which has been fully booked, we manage to have fun playing at Block 403 where there was this big green field that provided us the space to play. The thing is that there was way too much wind today and after an hour and a half of badminton, we decided to have our dinner at the coffeeshop near my area before Sotong visited us and quickly went back home for her dinner before resuming work.
After seeing her off home, we went to Westmall to return my books and for a short slacking session before heading back to Bukit Gombak to find Sotong to crap with her. And heck, it was around this time when I and Zijian were totally 'stunned' by these two cats which suddenly, out of now-where, jumped out and scare the shit out of us! You got to be there to know how it felt. Shit.
Anyways, fetch Sotong from her workplace and crapped at the Coffeeshop near the badminton court area before seeing Brother Zijian to the station.
6 more hours before enlistment, I'll be updating two or three weeks later, till then, wish me luck! (:

2 DAYS OF FUN
First thing first, before I start off with today's event, would like to apologise to Jacqueline and Zijian for my attitude I've given today. I really did woke up on the wrong side of the bed and I shouldn't have thrown my temper at you guys. Thank you guys for being so patient with me and many thanks to Jacqueline and Zijian for the slice of cake you brought for me. That's really nice for you guys.
Now, after an hour after we met, Sheryl Sunshine reached and after some disputes with her on where we are suppose to meet, we sang at Ang Mo Kio's KBOX situated near Blk 720. The room's clean and spacious, and with that began our 4 hour singing session of the day.
We left at 8pm for our dinner at the Blk 424 food centre before heading home.
Tomorrow badminton session with Brother Zijian. One last day to enjoy my life as a civilian, two years of military life coming my life. Huat ah!
Yesterday went out with Zijian and Jacqueline for another shopping trip at Vivo, after having Superdog and Kopitiam for lunch, we started window shopping around until one of us had this idea of heading to Sentosa for a 'walk'. LOL. It was so so random? Nevertheless, we had fun, tons of it.

Around 6pm in the evening we headed back to Vivo and had our dinner at this restraunt called Greenplace or something. All I can remember is that it's situated near Superdog. Their Salmon and Chicken chop tastes great, so people you should give it a try if you are heading to Vivo one day. It costs a little less than twenty dollars and does not include any GST nor Service Charge, how great is that?

RUSH HOUR AT TOWN
NO, you are not on the wrong blog, just in case you are wondering who is the person in those photos, he's my Boy's Brigade cum close Secondary Schoolmate, Mr Soh Liangying a.k.a SLY whom I've not met up for quite some time since he entered army. Anyways, met up with him and Jacjac for shopping session at Town. We caught the movie 'Terminator Salvation' at Cineleisure and window shopped shortly afterwards.
In the end, I've got some new undergarments at John Little, nothing compared to Mr. SLY whom brought socks, undergarments, that 'oh-so-neat' Lactose shoes and 2 singlets. Miss Jacjac didnt purchase anything
We then had our dinner at Plaza Singapura's KFC before heading home. It was nice hanging out with you brother. After your National Day Parade practices and everything, we meet up again alright?
Tomorrow second round shopping with Jacjac and Zijian, we are seriously going to kick some crazy butt time together. Woohoo.

Ms Pearly a.k.a Sotong; I've amended the post already, go see. LOL. Anyways, you wanna meet up before I go in army? Or see me in? (:

PRE-ARMY BBQ CEELBRATION
Okay, pictures for Alvin and I's Army Farewell BBQ taken yesterday.
The main 'participants' at the BBQ were of course, my working cum closest friends. There was Ms Pearly a.k.a Sotong, Jacqueline a.k.a Jacjac, Zijian a.k.a Mussel, Nicole a.k.a Bargirl/Yada and Alvin a.k.a LV.
After meeting up with Alvin, Zijian and eventually AND finally, our beloved Ms Pearly, we were ready to set off to WCP via cab.
Then again, we kind of got lost there, after asking around for directions from a couple of cops stationed there, we eventually got to our BBQ pit site.
Yada and Jacjac came in at a later time.
After the tent was completely set up and the girls were on their way to get more charcoal and ice for the BBQ, we, the guys started BBQ-ing, not before we chased away some China party-POOPERS whom got our pit (:

Around an hour or two into our party food 'fiesta', we were already super bloated. Then we started playing Code Number to punish the loser to eat. In the end, we decided best to have a competition for everyone to finish the food up. It was also around this time Sheryl Sunshine reached (:
Mushmallows time! (:
Mushmallows time! (:
Jacjac left soon afterwards cause of some family problem and Sheryl to find her boyfriend. But before that, their cam-whoring sessions. We started to consume our alcoholic drinks and boy, they do make people do silly stuffs. LOL.
Most adorable girls I've ever seen! LOL.
And of course, you must see the aftermath of the whole BBQ. And heck, we were so freaking tired. Worse still, there wasn't a cab, if any, in sight at all. We took the bus back to Clementi interchange and took the train home.
This is probably one of the most tiring BBQ I've ever been to. Good gosh. Anyways, movie session with Jacjac tomorrow, can't wait! (:

3 DAYS
3 days without updating, and with that, 2 days spent with Brother Zijian and a day at home, and in the late evenings, doing what I always loved most, running. The feeling of sweat twinkling down and the need of speed further propels me to run even faster everytime, it's the adrealine rush that never fails to remind me that running is the best exercise ever.
3 days back, out with Brother Zijian again the next day to return our nametags at Crowne Plaza. After that we hang out at Pasir Ris's White Sands, Superdog for lunch, brought Brother Zijian's stupid 'BEEF', yes 'BEEF', mashmallows, slacked at the library and had dinner at KFC before heading home, and heck, I was tired. So I tuned in early at 9pm for a good night sleep.
Yesterday's 6km run was good and it felt great. But I know it was far from what I had achieved a few years back when I was more actively running. Nevertheless, being able to hit the tracks 15 rounds proved that my stamina is still there. Later during this evening, I shall do my tapering by running 4km, 10 rounds.
8 more days to army.
