xmas 2005

with the councillors, class of 2001...

a futile attempt in trying to be arty fartsy..

ex. orchard frenzy

finally, end of the first 14 weeks in ocs.. moving on to pro term, which is gonna be another 24 weeks of training..

met up with my platoon mates in town for a movie, followed by some lan gaming and den dinner.. had quite some fun cuz afterall, had been thru quite with this bunch of friends..

looking back, these 14 weeks hadnt come by easy.. training was moderately tough.. learnt quite a bit of stuffs and of cuz been thru moments tat i'll nv forget in life..

so, we're all gonna be split us as we move on to our various vocations.. the next time we see each other is most prolly 21 weeks later, back at the main parade square.. =)

but anyway, certain things happened earlier (nothing to do with the gathering) and it made my rusty brain work out a little..

i feel tat computer mediated forms of communication, or CMC (hps. msn, irc etc. u get the idea) for short, have its shortcomings when it comes to expressing certain human emotions and feelings..

it is especially hard for ppl who have probs expressing themseleves thru words during simple discussions.. for example, if u wish to disagree on a point and remain silent, the other end have totally no idea wat u are up to or wat are u exactly thinking abt.. unlike conventional face2face, where u have non-verbal hints or thru phone where u can actually hear the tonality of the receiver, and make an accurate estimate of to see how much the other person agrees with u...

sigh..

guess i shudnt have remained silent..

爱我别走

我到了这个时候还是一样
夜里的寂寞容易叫人悲伤
我不敢想的太多
因为我一个人
迎面而来的月光拉长身影
漫无目的地走在冷冷的街
我没有你的消息
因为我在想你

爱我别走
如果你说你不爱我
不要听见你真的说出口
再给我一点温柔
爱我别走
如果你说你不爱我
不要听见你真的说出口
再给我一点温柔

Platoon field camp cum Ex. Spade

just came back from platoon field camp cum exercise spade..

overall it was quite a fun experience. first 2 days was doing navigation exercises b4 transiting to ex. spade, which is the reowned trench digging exercise of service term in ocs..

ex spade was truly shagness man.. worst of all, i kena the machine gun team and instead of jus digging the normal trench, we had to dig a slightly bigger one jus for the big momma gun to sit in nicely.. damn.. its no easy shit man..

dug the whole nite and only managed to finish everthing by the following afternoon..

took alot of photos but cant show much cuz dun wanna get into any trouble, if u know wat i mean.. shall let the photos do the talking.. :)

the blank attachment - signifies the commencement of field training whenever its fixed on to the weapon..

found our way to a crocodile swamp during the navigation ex..
