Hi I am back for a rather short break before going back to an island called tekong. Sadly, I contracted the tekong cough recently, after recovering and now my voice is worse than ever. The feeling of getting home was really wonderful….although it’s rather short.
Training is toughening up and all my instructors are expecting more from my platoon. My platoon has great capable people, including me though I know it’s rather thick skin or beh hia bai of me saying that. I love leading song and giving timing though sometimes I do made certain mistakes. I had 2 SOC training this week and I manage to clear all stations except the low rope and the swinging bar aka as monkey bar. As a matter of fact I did not really kind of enjoy the lessons of SOC, but I have to force myself to love it. O gosh! But there were other interesting trainings that I certainly do enjoy like IMT, combat training and route march. There were a couple of lectures that were nice but some might be boring too.
Guess what the night before IPPT; I had a fever of up till 38.2 degree Celsius. I took 2 panadol and prayed very badly as I really want to complete my IPPT. So I prayed and I couldn’t really sleep the whole night I was practically cold. But the temperature decreased subsequently. And GUESS WHAT! God gave me the best part of my life; I passed my IPPT the next day despite being sick. Here’s the breakdown
Sit Up 50
Standing broad jump 216cm
Pull up 6 (I have stretch all the way before pulling myself up again)
Shuttle run 10.1s (I AM AMAZED; I usually got 10.8-11s)
2.4 km run around 10-11 min (I haven gotten the result yet, but I knew I am back on form)
Well as you can see, I am beginning to see god’s power in me. Last Sunday, I went to city harvest church for worship. BBTC has 1 on Sunday, but it’s for adult services. Furthermore, I did not have cell group meeting on that day, so I went to CHC instead, the worship and sermon are really fantastic. I was really amazed to see thousands and thousands of worshippers praising my lord.
Well that’s all for now see you all soon and happy Chinese new year!

Hi I am once back again after like 11 days of Confinement in a beautiful island called Pulau Tekong. Well, I am back in the main land and I contracted with what people like associate with as tekong cough. I lost my voice but yet again I was given a post of like timer and song IC in my platoon. But still the very nice voice of mine seems to crack and is temporary unavailable for usage….I am having a sore throat. I can’t really speak much or shout loudly and properly. I need to recuperate and get my voice back. SAF BMT is really a great place for free-slimming and muscle building therapy. Well all they need to do is to ask you fly from one place to another and run up the buildings (I lived at the top floor). Lots of events happening and I am progressing indeed. I manage to strip my rifle below 20s, passing my IMT, which I never passed once in NCC, (I passed my live range test). So it was kind of great, I get to lead the song and also making sure everyone walk in steps.
Training is toughening up and it’s getting more xiong. But my body shows that I am able to adapt the training…..the sergeants are stricter than before but yet again like I sadi they are fair and nice. Especially my platoon sergeant strict xiong yet he’s funny and he is really very welfare whenever we need his help and stuff. I am really fortunate to be in platoon 4 HAWK COY. Love them……
I manage to see true colours of some of my bunk mates. Some were nice, well others can be well…..okay… OH YA,My buddy is Mervin, a nice chubby big size guy (my school mate too) who can do more pull-ups than me, but sadly he’s slower than me for 2.4KM run….!!!!!!! He likes to use the word fuck….which kind of influence me to do that too…..lol…..He’s great but I think both of us seldom rely on each other. He’s good at certain stuff, well I am talented at certain areas. He came from scout and I came from NCC. So he’s better in camp craft stuff, well I am better in military stuff.
I will update u more stuff and praise the lord for he protect me and cover my ass over these few weeks. I am really grateful to him and I missed church a lot. I cannot wait to see them man,…..

Hey hi once again, i am fortunate to be back now on the mainland. I cannot really say much about BMT, as i made an Oath about not disclosing anything that is confidential or rather "confidential" in SAF. From 070106 , i am part of the team of SAF, as a.... recruit.
Ok but i do have things about myself in the army then i am sure i can disclosed, like ok i am from hawk company, a great coy i should say. I have a great PS and a section sergeant.They are kind yet fair when they shout at us. They don't merely shout, they really show the values and virtues of an instructor. I really respect a lot and i am sure i will put in my very best for all training. My section people were great, we are rather cooperative i should say.Well i guess i have to buck up a lot on drills especially arms drills(turning rusty soon) footdrills isn't much of a problem. Well much to improve on fitness. I did only like 4 pull-ups today.GOSH!!!!!The consequences of not training (I did 10 for naffa) But don't worry i will ensure myself doing 10 or more by the month of february.
I will like to thanks lord for giving me such a great coy and platoon and section. At least, he has shown the first great step as i start my journey in NS. Surely, i will to see more of his greatness and blessing. In turn i am going to love him even more.....
take me deeper.....deeper than i ever knew you before....jesus hold me close into your embrace.....
hallelujah to lord all mighty all reign....
god bless all of you take care.

Hi guys. It’s wonderful to be in 2006. Because of that it’s good to start off with a different theme n song…..
Prologue- the song is called “A song for my Queen”. It’s in mandarin, sang by a group called B.A.D. It’s a song that makes me appreciate everything I have, posses, cherish loved, yearn, even lost or hate. It’s everything, everything given by the love of my god.
A song meant for you, me and everyone out there, to all my friends thanks for being the queen of my heart. Hope you enjoy this song while you read my entry………
A brand new journey that I am about to begin starting from 7 January. I am praying for my upcoming A level Results, hoping that it will be great, and also my NS years. I really have to pray that everything will run smoothly. I had a wonderful year end in 2005, all my NCC friends and Yes 933 friends like Wei Hong and Wee Suan. I will update of you my life in BMTC, so do take care.
Actually, there are really lots off things I want to do right after A level, but there are just lots of unfinished stuffs like spending more time with family, hanging out with more friends, taking more new skills and course. How I wish that the time clock will just flow and oscillate slowly, while I am able to clear and accomplish what I have not done.
I guess it’s pertinent to have a “review” of what I have done last year
I have a hectic yet “fun” time studying for my A level. Scrapping all the tests, preparing last minutes studies for A levels and prelims. Getting to know many great friends in JC, I happen to went out with few of them yesterday, and deeply appreciate Andrew as my great pal n friends to talk to whenever I need help. I deeply appreciate all my teachers’ help despite me being such a bad guy for being too lazy.
I had a great journey in NCC, finally, I manage to accomplish all my goals aim and objectives. I have been the OIC for live ranges, preparing lots of stuff, and really found great friends from the 48th Intake. I picked up S4 OIC in specialists course, and S1 for senior specialists course, something worth remembering. Although I was not given any post as an instructor this year for any course or camp, but I really learn a lot from the 2 extraordinary posts, especially S1. I was able to exercise my administrative skills in S1, though it can never be as good as Wei Jie. I am happy and glad to be efficient enough to handle all things while Wei Jie wasn’t around. Wei Jie was fabulous and I really learnt much from him.
In addition, I managed to go for 1 course that I longed to go since sec 3; The OCS experiential camp- a great insight and feel to be an officer cadet trainee. I really hope to get in there, but I all comes down to god decision, and my hard work and effort .
