Something that i have been looking forward to: that is revamping my whole room. Did some tidying up and spring cleaning today. I have never done a serious tidying up of my room before, so today i actually thrown away lots of stuffs and in the process of sieving through all my belongings, i found some items that happen to be lost years back. Beside that, there are still secondary school maths test paper in my cabinet, which when i look at it, it really brings me back to the time when i am fiddling with coordinate geometry and quadratic. Then there are those little dairies that i kept when i in primary school. When i read the content, it is just too hilarious, i cannot believe i wrote those words. LOL! There are also photos from my primary school all the way to JC time. Lastly, need to decide what to keep and what to dispose off, this is kind of like the hardest part. LOL! I can just stare into open space and think, should i keep this for about 5 mins before continuing. Well, all in all, it is quite a successful one, my room looks neater, but there is a round 2 tomorrow. There are just too much stuffs in my room,
Next, i wanna talk about something which i observed. If we review what happen in the world, there are the 911 incident that concerns with terrorism, then Sichuan quake, Environmental issue, poverty and everyday, there are natural disasters that took away lives daily. All these are big events that surround us, but dun actually affect us much. When we read the news, our reaction will likely to be emotional at first, but later on, this piece of news will just be store at the dark and cold storage compartment in the brain. Next, we will just get on with life with our line of sight limited to what we can see and do or even continue to lament about those small trivial stuff that we happens to see on the street. What i am trying to say is, why are people just too concern about themselves such as earning money, studying or indulging in any entertainment activities. Whenever i hear talks about singaporean argueing over MRT seats, tissue paper, i was thinking, can they please look out beyond the sea, there are people suffering, starving or even dying. If they got the energy to start forum like this, i will suggest they do some voluntary work.
I mean if people want to limit their world to nothing beyond 10 feet from them, it is ok, just that end of the day, they will be ridiculed as myopic, ignorant and apathetic. Which i think is a shame. What i am advocating here is, please be concern about the world, Dont do things just for yourself, try to help people that are suffering. The grades on the result slip is not all there is to it, and so is the money that people are busy accumulating.

ORD-ed.
Have not been blogging for some time, and when i pen this entry, i had ORDed. It is really kind of fast. I know is cliche, but enlistment just felt like yesterday, and those period in camp is stil fresh in my memory. LOL! Anyway, it is something like 2 days after i ORD, and what have i been doing, or am going to do.
1. Go for a morning run daily if possible. ( Actually is like afternoon run, cos i always woke up late.)
2. Fiddle with my guitar. Still exploring and learning man... There are so much things to learn!
3. Play my piano. Continue the journey that stops temporarily when i was in primary 3.
4. Of course, reading up books everyday. Now reading up on astronomy, geog, econs and current affairs stuff.
5. Sign up with few tuition agency... No reply sia... Guess must wait a bit longer.
6. Trying to apply for relief teaching.
7. Apply for voluntary work, but there is like no response also. Argh.. I think the processing will take quite some time.
That sounds like a lot of things i am going to do everyday. But seriously, it is not.... I still can get bored at home. Ya... So is either i go to the TV and try tuning to every channels i subscribed and check for interesting programmes or i just sleep. Pace is quite slow and is good. I intend to keep it this way. lol... Anyway, from what i compute, i guess my future life will be slow and good as well, unless i forgot to account for other factors that will screw up my computation.
These few days really is good. Doing what interests me, no restrictions. Listening to music, playing music, reading up texts that interests me... That is really LIFE! After been through the 2 years, i really reformed my whole life and thinking man. 2 years back, if you give me this time, i guess i will be slacking, playing comp game plus reading books as well. So what's the difference between now and 2 yrs back?
1. I dun game that much now let alone been obsessed with it. Last time i quite obsessed with chinese game and when started with those RPG, i could hardly pull myself away from it. Now, i do very occasional gaming, and even if i game, i am in control, i wun let game occupy half my day man!
2. OK. I dun exercise in the past. Always, wanted to get started, but never get started. Now, i feel working out is a good way to start a day or rejunevate oneself.
3. Then is the genre of book i read. Now i m reading a more diverse types of books. No long confined to my relativity and quantum physics. Sometimes reading up about what is happening around us(life politics or volcano bla blah), make us understand better and appreciate better. It will really be quite a joke if here we are living on this planet, and dun even know what is happening around us. People are apathetic because they think what is happening dun affect them when in actual fact, it does. I will say, it is ok not take participate or act but must at least know.
4. Oops... third point sounds too serious. Anyway, i got my new-found interest that is music. I want to try this out for a while. I dunno how far i will go, but i just wanna indulge in it for a moment. lol.. Sometimes it is really mesmerising that you can just blend into the melody..
Anyway, i going to end this post with what i have learnt over the 2 yrs. It is not easy been in infantry especially when mine is a trial plus active battalion. From the head to end, the schedule is packed, with no lull in between, and is that bad that i ORD with un-cleared off. But is really not big a deal. In wun be worst than, you having dinner with ur family at IMM and suddenly, a phone call came and tell you that you are activated and need to be in changi in 1 hour time. By the way, all my stuffs still at home. I still remember i ran in the shopping mall which is totally very "shi tai". haha... after been through so much stuffs, i accumulated damned lots of stories and funny moments. Remember i saying, when i post to BMT i in leopard coy which is very slack. That is like throwing a 6 in a dice. Then when i post to changi there, is like throwing a 1. The worst throw ever. Some people got 6 all the way... But at the end, i am glad that i ORD with a 6 in a dice-throwing. This last "6" that i gotten is probably so powerful that whatever number i got before that is deemed unimportant. The hell lots of hardship and the changes in my personal life makes me grow up a lot. What i've learnt is really beyond words can describe...
To end my 2 years. I dare say i serve my 3SIR unit with pride! Bye to my 2 yearS! Arios!
