Life in Tekong...

I am getting real lazy lately tt i seem to only blog once a month. I seriously wanna blog more often so tt i dun hav to squeeze evrything in 1 entry. My life undergoes a dramatic change starting from 26th January 2007, the day i stepped onto this "wonderful" island called Tekong...

Haha, but b4 i start whining abt my army life, i shall blog abt something nice. It was the SAJC Alumni Challenge on the 19th Jan at victors. I started the competition on a low note wif a 179, but i was not discouraged as thr were 5 more to go. Fortunately, i bounced back immediately wif a 246 on the 2nd game to take a huge leap to take top spot. Although i only managed to maintain score and ended the 6 games wif a 199 avr, it was gd enuff to enter the step ladder as top seed. I almost got caught by my "best fren" on the last game but luck was on my side as i lead by 7 pins if i wasnt wrong. Looking at the top 6 step ladder finalists, i was only afraid of aloy(though he has lost to 2 twice in step ladder haha), hot favourites like david, edwin, leonard failed to perform tt day, and tyco luck allow assholes like shit and peter to appear in the step ladder. 1st match was quite boring which yew liang got thru. 2nd match was worst when shit shut off the 2 challengers early in the game. Then, 3rd match was described as my match of the century by many as it was against tt some1 who tiks he is sultan of pins, but to me he is more like orangutan. We both started the game well as we were frame for frame until i gave the game away when i left a 4-6-7-10 split on the 9th frame, losing the game 210-226. It was lucky tt thr was a 2nd game when i won my 1st ever step ladder 215-179. I felt even happier when shit was the 1 tt i defeated. lol. 2 days later, i had National League Masters at occ where i finished 9th. Ok enuff of bowling, i shall go back to talking abt Tekong.

Looking back, i was confined in there for 2 weeks before my 1st book out. I would not say the 2 weeks were the toughest days of my life, but i juz had this feeling tt i nv had b4. I feel very lost as well as lonely in there and i constantly asked myself why do i hav suffer in thr. 1st few days in thr were real tough as it was a total new environment, time seem to pass so slowly and i juz hope the 2 wks end asap. Dirty water, no aircon room, doorless bathroom, filthy bed/pillow, yelling from sergeants, endless marching, physical torture were the things i hav to adjust myself to so tt i will b able to live my life thr. Being only assessible to tap water caused me to get the so called Tekong cough for the entire 2 wks as well as flu, headache and diarrhoea. It was terrible to fall ill when ur close ones were not by ur side. Moreover, when i visit the medical centre to report sick, i was so pissed wif the medics and medical officers thr as they r so unfrenly and uncaring for the patients. They gave me the feeling tt i m faking ill and i really feel like throwing them off a building. I was like hoping 9th Feb reach asap b4 i collapse in thr. I swear tokin and smsing on the fone really helped me get used to the life in thr, i try to convince myself evrything is gonna b fine and i juz hav to hang on. I kept having the feeling of tearing when i m in thr, especially when i thot of the times i spend on mainland wif my close ones. 14 days past by and i could remember marching to the jetty whr evry1 sang loudly to mark the 1st book out. No 1 could b happier den me as i will b going out to celebrate my birthday 2 days lata.

When i stepped onto mainland, it was like i entered a dreamland as i nv thought i could live the life of a civilian ever again. haha. i was on cloud nine as i headed back home b4 goin out to meet david they all. It was really glad to see them after 2 wks, nothing seem to change except for my new hairdo. We watched a movie tt day and b4 i realised we were in coca eating the next day to celebrate my birthday. It was fun tokin to each other while eating and playing dumb games at the end. After tt, we went mjing again juz like before. Time really pass super fast as i had to head back "home" on sunday night. I spent a wk in thr which pass quite smoothly for me as i tik i m getting used to life in thr. i no longer cough and i dun feel cold at night. Countdown begins for evry1 when we were in thr as we hope time could pass by quickly for us to book out again. I shall not tok abt the 1 wk in thr as it was the same old shit of training and torturing.

I came out on friday evening after a visit at Singapore Discovery Centre. I met up wif the usual gang again with the exception of david who was in batam. We got shocked tt day as we bump into some1 who shouldnt c us, haha. I couldnt really care how he feels as i dun treat my enemies well. This book out is longer as Sunday is CNY. Watching movie and mj are the only things i do when i book out haha. Had reunion dinner on Saturday and i went to bowl wif my dad after not bowling for 3 wks. My bowling really suck now and my spin is so ugly. I nid to change my drilling asap b4 i enjoy the game again. CNY day 1 was the usual whr i visit my relatives all the way till evening b4 eating steamboat and den gamble. Day 2 this yr was a bit diff as i nv did visiting. After my cousins came over to my place, i went over to gerald hse wif leonard and vic for mj session AGAIN lol. Leonard was so lucky being the only winner and he gamed a yi jiu pong pong hu game. He betta not used up his luck as he has roll off this fri and sat. We went to watch Kungfu MJ 2 at cine 9th floor b4 heading home.

Started off today watching "Just Follow Law", it was a nice movie as my idol Fann was in the show. She really acted super well in this show and many would agree wif me. Time pass like how fast tt i will hav to go back camp in like 3 more hrs. How sian is tt. Stefanie Sun will be releasing her 1st album wif EMI on the 21st March, do grab a copy at any cd stores ppl.

Good Luck to Leonard for the roll off, though i will not b thr to support u, do bowl well and make the asian schs sqd. You will make it if u believe in urself and i m sure u can do it. Keep me updated with ur scores.

Bye to evry1 and cya on Saturday afternoon.
