Long time again.................................

It's been a long while, 2 weeks since i updated my blog i guess. Ok, the last post was before i went to a 4 days 3 nights outfield. For that outfield, was ok with enough rest for us(the troops) each night i would say. Anyway, things was quite ok as i bought bread for the 4 days of hell in the field. We wouldn't have such luxury when doing the actual evaluation i guess, surely the rest time wouldn't be that much because it is a mock war situation and in war, we fight and kill or be killed. Ya, it is great since the outfield is over as our company had a long weekend after the outfield with us clearing 2 days of leave on the following monday and tuesday. Last week, since it is a long weekend for me. Quite glad since it is well spent. On saturday, as usual went to meet ah kiong. Sunday went to meet some of my army friends for steamboat buffet in the evening. Before that, met up with 1 of them and went to expo for the IT fair there. For the buffet, it was good with the price of $15 except it doesn't come with drinks. First time actually went to meet army friends during a weekend. Ok lah cause this bunch of my army friends were closer although not from my platoon but known them as they were my ex-platoon 6 mates. Sometimes, also a good experience to come out with them. Monday went to settle my bank matters with 1 of my army friend who also wanted to open a UOB account. After that, i went with him to suntec city to take a look at the remote contolled cars which i was encouraged to buy by my bunkmates as they were also buying to play along. Bought 2 of those at Carrefour supermarket and found it was not so good. Good price= good quality i think. After that, saw another 3 of my army friends at Suntec when i was paying for the cars. We then went to play games at the arcade and had dinner before going home that day. For tuesday since it is a book in day, the normal routine for me resume as i prepare to go back camp that night except i brought back one of the cheaper cars back camp that night. For events last week, since it is short week, for wednesday i was assigned to help the armskote settle some things for some check. Thursday, nothing much except for the cohesion dinner and BBQ night. Enjoy quite a bit and great night i would say. Friday was short day as from morning we had a NE tour to the same places as the one in last feb. Anyway, we were released at 1pm after the tour. After, 1 of my army friend and i went to suntec to walk abt but before that was stop by a prudential company agent and i bought a plan of 25 years with yearly having to paid $870. Anyway, could save me a lot of the money by then although it is going to be a long wait i guess. This week was another long weekend because of hari raya. For saturday, went out with ah kiong. Later met lijin and calvin after she finished work at 7pm at tiong bahru plaza. Went for dinner at chinatown and after that we walk around before going home at abt 9.30pm. As for yesterday, went to visit my grandma with my cousin and brother as usual. Spent the day and catch up with my grandma and cousin. Great day spent i would say as usual. Today, nothing much. In the afternoon, went to tampines for lunch and to toy-r-us to buy another remote controlled car. I thought quality would be better but i guess it is almost the same. Time running out for me again! See you guys again!!!!
