But at least I tried with the last minute spams.
Now I'm on par!
LOL. Fucking lame.
If not for people disturbing me on FB maybe I'll think of more things to blog and then I'll surpass it.
Or maybe there'll be a nights out on Tues after IPPT?!?!? XDXD
Then I'll be in time to blog more!!!
HA. But still. it's fucking lame.
(Guess what? it's the 300th post for the year or 2010)
Ciao guys. Book in lo!

Thinking of you.
That was what I did last night during the run.
But I was thinking of all the compromise you did for me.
Thanks.
And all the lies and deceits that you never got to know.
Sorry...
--
I wanted to write out every thing that I've kept from you that you might have or have not guessed; at least I'll then be less guilty (not like you see); but due to time constraints, next time perhaps.
- The first non-emo Realusion post -
Good start.

And I doubt I can pull 12 x Chin up as well.
Consider the last time I did pull was last week,
and it's a mere 1 set of 8 x chin up with No. 4.
Prior to that, zero count for the past one month plus.
LOL. I'll be surprised if I really do 12 on Tues.
(Though I really hope that I'd be surprised.)
[Zzz. Random random random...]

IPPT on TUES!!!
How the hell am I supposed to run 9.14!?!?!
IMPOSSIBLE is the only thing I can relate to it.
Even after deducting the 15secs that I rested before the last 300m last night, my timing's only 9.30.
16secs in 2 days seems easy in theory, but it's never the case in practice.
Even in BMT settings, it took me one week of INTENSIVE training to shave off 15secs.
Well well well, looks like it's really time to quit.
Not the game, but the habit. Bad bad bad...

Another con
that only applies to me is that I have to book in earlier than others simply because I've got more work than them, even though I'm drawing the same pay, or, as compared to the sergeants, worst still, lesser.
(But why am I so concerned about the pay?!?! (Must be the 300DOLLARS... urgh!) I'm quite happy with my current position in the office actually, having the pressure to improve myself and at the same time learn from my mistakes; and also given so many chances and opportunities to hold so much responsibilities)
Oh well, just GIVE ME THE MONEY!
HA. Totally absurd. Don't mind me, it's just pre-book-in syndrome.

Con of NS
My Mum came into my room in the midst of her mahjong game to talk to me and ask about my booking-out this week and the leave for next week.
And I heard her friends complaining about her taking too long a break.
After that I overheard her telling her friends in conto that she wanted to talk to me before I head back to camp.
One thing sucky about NS is that it only allows me to be with my family on days where they have freedom from their work. This applies to everyone I guess.
And that's often the reason why NSmen always gather together on weekends even when they see each other almost everyday: no one's at home anyway; either that, or they're busy.
Not much of a diff.
Hopefully after this two years I'll learn to spend more time with them as compensation.
For now, SUCK YOUR F***ING THUMB! Zzz

Signing on
This idea has been on my mind for quite some time after talking to my CSM regarding SAF scholarship.
But my conclusion for now is that it's not very possible.
Too much to commit and too little incentives.
Perhaps I would have if my OC's not ORD-ing so soon. LOL.

Sham creating this group reminds me a lot of all my other cliques that once had accounts on Friendster;
it always end in nothingness.
Totally random.

NS FULL-TIME indeed.
Forget it that I'm working when others are having their personal R&R in the bunk.
Forget it that I'm working when others go to bed.
Forget it that I'm working the load of 4 persons or even 6 now that the CQ and Clerk is gone.
At least give me a pay rise!!!.... $300? HAHA.

Not that I'm complaining.
I'm having nights out when others are slogging.
I'm having supper in the spec mess when others are busy.
and I'm having book out when others are confining!

Same old weekend routines.
Same thing, I book out to meet the STG for mahjong with Kangster as the DJ.
Same thing, we went Sentosa for Sun tanning session just like life before Brunei.
Same thing, we had lunch together and split up after.
Same thing, I skipped the Bball session in the morning.
Same thing, I'll be meeting Sat Gang (VJ Bball) later (or so I think)
Same thing, I'll be rounding with Rex after.
And most importantly,
Same thing, tomorrow's a book-in day,
and the same old weekday routines begin.
--
Q: When will life ever have an extreme makeover?
A: Either there's a sudden announcement that tomorrow's ORD or I suddenly strike lottery.
I want both actually.

Chaos Theory
If that one particular stupid butterfly haven't flap its wings,
it may not have triggered that gust of wind.
If that gust of wind had not been triggered,
it may not have entered my room.
If it had not entered my room,
it may not have awoken me at that particular moment that I woke up yesterday.
If it didn't wake me up at that particular moment yesterday,
I may not have left my house at the time I left.
If I had not left my house at that time,
I may not have taken that particular route out.
If I had not taken that particular route out,
I may not have met Junyang at that particular instant.
If I had not met Junyang at that particular instant,
We may not have reached Kang's camp at that particular time.
If we had not reached there at that particular time,
I may decide to not buy the 4D
If I decide to not buy the 4D,
I may have chosen to not buy that particular (disgusting) Green Tea.
If I had not brought that green tea,
I may have decided to head towards Bukit Batok first.
If I had decided to head towards Bukit Batok,
I may not have picked up Alex's call.
If I had not picked up Alex's call,
I may have decided to meet him first then collect my race pack
If I had collected my race pack after meeting him,
we may not have decided to head towards that particular spot.
If we had not decided to head towards that particular spot,
the two NEA guys may not have camped down there.
If the haven't camped there,
We may be $300 richer now.
And if I am $300 dollar richer now,
I won't have posted this post.

What if the butterfly flapped its wings with slightly less strength,
perhaps we won't have been fined.
Or just any minor changes to any of the above scenarios,
maybe everything would have been different, totally.
Now I'm thinking,
"If I haven't posted this post,
I won't have won the first, second and third prize for the night's lottery"

Worried
Last night when I stayed over at JY's I slept early and my phone was switched to silent.
When I woke up I saw one missed call from home.
I didn't think much about it.
When I reached home this morning.
My mum asked me in a rather shocking tone:
"Why didn't you pick up your phone last night (in Chinese)"
I just replied that it was switched to silent mode.
Now that I wonder about it,
it's not the first time I've not picked up my phone,
neither is it the first time I've not return home without informing.
In fact, that's always the case.
Changing a perspective,
have they been worried all these while whenever I've failed to pick up their call or even return home at night?
Or is it just because there's been too many hacking cases nowadays in Singapore that they're starting to feel insecure about our society?
Either way, they're not the main point.
I realize they really care about me.
Even now when I'm old enough to shoot down an enemy when the time calls for;
I'm still a child to them, and I always will be.
So what if I'm a Red Beret Trooper,
So what if I'm a Commando;
To them,
I'm just a child.
And I enjoy being the last one most.
I hope I'll always get to be.

U-bin-tan?!?!?!
Sorry guys!
Should have renewed my passport long ago.
Stupid block leave comes so suddenly!
But then again. Nobody has any violent objection against cancelling it. Seems like everyone has no money for it anyway.
LOL.
Bye, Bintan!
Ubin anyone?!?!
--
Can spend the 4 days more meaningfully by doing other things that we don't get to do on weekends during book out!
Plus the money saved can be invested on more exciting activities locally.
Not a bad plan actually. =]
But still, my bad!

Book Clearance!
Ok, after the shopping spree for book last weekend, I've decided to be more disciplined and stop buying anymore books for the next 3 months (A bit hard consider it's X'mas season and there's so many promotions going on........)
Anyway. Gonna start my serious reading now that scholarship windows are opened again.
16 x good books on Economics/Finance to finish within this 3 months. XD
--
Urgh. Bank's left with $200 again. When are you returning me my monry, bro!?!?!

1st non-English B
It's long over,
but I was doing my Education Portfolio that traces back all the way to my PSLE,
I realized two things:
1) I've always gotten a B grade for English, and
2) my A'levels Physics was the first non-English subject to not get distinction!!!!
NB.
Actually quite zai ah; 16 distinctions out of the 20 exam papers I've taken in my whole life. LOL. BHB.
Still got my two 1st-class honors to get! (Like a bit far-fetched. Ha)

Currency War
Yuan is now undervalued as Chinese government suppresses the currency's upward pressure to appreciate (i.e. not allowing market forces to dictate its movement and the supply-demand interaction)
China is therefore signalling to the world a Beggar-thy-neighbor agenda: "we want to export to you for our own recovery, not yours"
--
Why China want to do this and what are the impacts on America?
- "to keep Yuan artificially cheap to give Chinese exports an unfair advantage in international markets, thus holding back America's economic recovery"
Why China should appreciate Yuan?
1. For its own sake
- It'll force its companies to become more efficient and high tech since they can no longer depend on a weaker currency (relatively cheaper when convert to local currency since it's weak) to compete with overseas firm.
- Materialize China's dream of the Yuan becoming a force in global trade and finance
- Transform China's investment-and-export growth engine to one based more on domestic consumption so as to reduce the economic's reliant on global demand, state spending and debt-driven investment (and since China's domestic market is large enough to exploit and support its economic growth)
- Sharp increase in Yuan's value would undercut the nation's export machine and cost valuable jobs (therefore gradual strengthening of the currency will be a better option)
- (no harm appreciating since previous episodes have shown that Chinese exporters can survive and even thrive - because imported components and raw materials costs less)
2. For the global economy
- External pressure cause tension to arise across the pacific
- Chain/Domino effect: BTN attitude encourages others to pursue similar policies (Japan for example intervene its currency in Sept first time after 6years to depress rising Yen to help its exporters compete with those from China and elsewhere) i.e. Competitive devaluation; raise nightmares that it might derail the already shaky recover from the Great Recession
- It is hurting poorer countries: cheap Yuan stunts their export sector by keeping Chinese products competitive with lower prices as compared t those from emerging markets
Why US wants Yuan to appreciate/strengthen against the Dollar?
- In hope of balancing trade between the two countries that China now has great surplus due to cheap Yuan and as a result cheap (comparatively) China product that spurred imports to US
- Cure its internal economic ills: unemployment and export deficient ((X-M)/net trade with China negative or low) via cheaper imports (US product) for Chinese consumer and companies, stimulating badly needed jobs.
Sub-conclusion
A stronger Yuan is good for just about everyone
US' retaliation
- recently passed a bill to slap punitive duties in goods from countries that keep their currencies undervalued
But a stronger Yuan may not necessarily help America, in fact, it can hurt US as well:
- Stronger Yuan will not automatically balance trade between the two countries; between 2005 to 2008 when Yuan appreciated about 21% against Dollar, America's trade deficit with China increased. China simply produces too many basic consumer goods.
America need to save more and spend less; Chinese need to spend more and save less.
- Expensive Yuan will also not encourage jobs and factories back to US from across Pacific, they will simply shift away from China (because strong currency make many export factories in China less competitive) to relocate at other developing nations (India, Indonesia etc) where costs are significantly lower than America's
Therefore it requires major structural reforms in both countries

72km
It's lead me to more than just my red beret.
It's gotten me blisters, abrasion, muscle aches, tiredness, sun burns,
and also criticisms.
How great.
Getting fuck for doing your job.
What more, when you're shag.
And I'm not being recognized for all these shit that I'm doing.
Where's the point.
It's like what some others are saying:
it's not worthwhile.
But I guess I've been chosen,
and I have the responsibility to not disappoint my task appointer.
Maybe I should try harder to learn how to not care about what others are saying behind my back.
That'll be some life skill army equip me with.
--
Such an eventful and meaningful milestone,
lets not spoil it.
Not that bad a walk after all.
Walking with my buddies together for most of the route;
even when we were shag, we pressed on;
even when we were sleeping, we moved forward. LOL.
Saw some mediacorp artist jogging and gave us some words of encouragement.
And guess what, we actually walked pass the President! (and I didn't know until after quite a while someone else told me, lol)
Guess he knew us commandos will be there that day, that's why there's only one bodyguard with me. Ha. Crap.
Reaching back to camp was a hugh relieve,
A heavy burden off my shoulder.
Because it simply means that the Red Beret's already in my hands.
Even when I couldn't even walk properly,
I felt a strength within.
The tiredness and shagness somehow disappeared.
And especially so on the actual parade itself. =]

Much awaited.
And much coveted.
It's but a piece of cloth.
That's all so common that I see it everywhere almost everyday.
The excitement and expectation had long died off.
Anticipation no longer existed.
Even up till the very moment when it was donned,
it was calm within.
But the experience was worthwhile.
The memories priceless.
The challenges valuable.
The future tougher,
the journey further.
Panthers;
Swift and Deadly.
For Honour and Glory,
Commando.

To create impression that won’t last
For people we don’t care about.

Long gone.
I'm surprised by the speed of me accepting the fact that we're strangers.
I don't feel a thing looking at your photos.
I feel glad that life goes on as usual for you, and me.
and I'm relieved now that you're not my responsibility.
I see that you've found your internal peace,
so have I.

9th month
We've been through so much in this short nine months.
People all around are still asking if it's worth it.
We're come thus far.
Nothing's managed to stop us.
Good job.
Press on.
Enlistment, POP, Medic course, Airborne, Battalion, Brunei.
We've still got a long way to go.
