Somewhere only we Know
KEANE
Somewhere Only We Know
I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me complete
Oh simple thing where have you gone
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
I came across a fallen tree
I felt the branches of it looking at me
Is this the place we used to love?
Is this the place that I've been dreaming of?
Oh simple thing where have you gone
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
And if you have a minute why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go
Somewhere only we know?
[break]
Oh simple thing where have you gone
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on

Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go
So why don't we go
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go

Something Magical in the Wind
Though it was a Sunday yesterday, I did quite a number of hours of duty due to shortage of manpower. And even I did grab a couple of rest time here and there, it seem insufficient enough to compensate my overwork body so much so I start to close my eye and fell asleep beside the X-ray machine @ 0000. I didn’t even wake up when some navy personnel return back to the camp for dunno what goddamn matters. My guard com took pity on me and allowed me to go back to sleep even though my duty was supposed to last till 0100. Thank You. Therefore I managed to squeeze a few more minutes of sleep, but not before sneaking a peek at Ma Xiao Ling with her mini skirt + long & beautiful legs combo because Channel 8 was showing My Date with Vampire 3. Keke
By the way, I forgot to mention I drove the R.H.I.B.S yesterday. A very wonderful experience + a great scenery to boot because the sun was setting down, yet the sky was filled with crimson red rays with dark looming clouds featuring streaks of lightning. The sea was starting to turn rough and I was the one controlling the direction of the R.H.I.B.S moving at 70-80Km/h under the supervision of my platoon mates. With the wind caressing against my face, I felt a sense of emptiness. Yet strangely, I am calm and peaceful. For a moment, I left behind all my worries and unhappiness at the shore and felt truly happy for the 1st time.
Sweet Memories...
I want to go Paradise with them again.
Why?
Man Utd Lost 2-1 to Blackburn. Chee Bye. I am so angry they lost, not because I lost any money ( I don't bet anyway) but because they always disappointed us time and time again after promising so much. Worse still, I think I will be "SUAN" endlessly by LuLu ( that Liverpool sucker) BIG TIME tomorrow back in camp. KNN! ARRGGGG!
I am that guy
MercerMachine’s “cannot help but follow” meme (trackbacks via Tomorrow.sg).
I am that premature baby who caused his mother back pain and high blood pressure during pregnancy. I am that baby who were force to come out early before her life is in danger.
I am that son who didn’t have a home to call my own until I was five. I am that son who didn’t recalled seeing my mother during this period and seek shelter at my grandma place. I am their son who only remembered seeing my father occasionally.
I am that sibling who woke up at 2330 at night, ran barefooted to the ground floor, hopped onto the taxi and saw my mother being wheeled away by the nurses for my little sister delivery.
I am that playful child who caused many moments of anguish and anxiety to my parent as well as being whacked for it. I am that guilty party who caused my sister to have a scar on her eyebrow while playing "Catching" at home.
I am that primary school kid who ran to school everyday even though it is less than 500m away because I want to play games with my friend before school start. I am that kid who got whacked just because I ran to school.
I am that student who were selected to participate in the Chinese writing essay competition even though my Chinese sux big time yet frequently scored very well for Chinese composition because of my mother’s involvement.
I am that basketball fanatic who joined the school basketball team and participated in Inter-School games during secondary 2 and 4.I am that player who were knocked out on both occasion in the 2nd rounds.
I am that son who was pressurized by my mother to study at Polytechnic instead of JC. I am that son whose mother has no confidence in her child’s ability. I am that son whom she said might be better off marrying a Vietnam bride instead.
I am the son who could never become what they wanted. I am the child who is still trying to please his parents.
I am that joker, lamer, bookworm, idiot, buddy who felt extremely blessed to be part of the 24 gang during his times in Singapore Polytechnic. I am part of the happy memories which many of us still hold them dear.
I am that boyfriend who is possessive, stubborn, angered her on many occasion and yet love her more than anyone else in the world. I am that boyfriend who attempted to master playing the piano so that he could play “Pachelbal Canon” for his girlfriend on Valentine Day.
I am that recruit who misfired during his first day of the range and yet still hit the target. I am that recruit who kena 3 confinements straight from the OC. I am that recruit who developed a phobia from then on whenever a live firing range is conducted.
I am that national servicemen who had to insist his vocation are Sea Soldier instead of RP. I am that national servicemen who had to stand for many hours starring at space waiting for something to happen, waiting for that 1% chance to strike.

Liar Liar
The two weeks cycle finally end today. I am almost running out of steam but I can’t take a break due to shortage of manpower. All of us are still going to mount duty for the next 2 weeks with no rest day in sight. Therefore, I would like to ask my fellow platoon mates to do me a favour. If I am not doing my stuffs well because of my diminishing energy level, do holler or kick my ass to wake me up. So in a meantime, let’s hang on and place our thin hope together everything will be better after the next 2 weeks.
But at the meantime, I’m glad at least we knew how to make merry amid difficult period. We brought all our barang barang and foodstuffs and made our own dinner (spaghetti, hotdogs, nuggets) and night snack. (Glutinous rice balls) We played matches after matches of Winning Eleven because it was a weekend Saturday duty. Jokes were cracked and embarrassments were saved with every idiotic action Mr. Tok Cock made. It was nevertheless something better than nothing to compensate the loss of our standby.
When I was still studying in secondary school, the first item I would normally turn to after I got the now defunct newspaper “Streats” is the Horoscope Page. I was actually quite addicted and believed to a certain degree the authentically of the reading. And so when it says I would generally do well for my exams, I was quite pleased and stepped into the examination hall with the added boost of confidence riding up my chest. But it was a totally different story when I got back my examination paper. From then on, I woke up to my folly and treat horoscope reading as only another source of entertainment.
September 19-25: There’s something heroic and stubbornly romantic about you – always has been. You refuse to give up on a dream, passion or ideal, despite incredible odds. Sometimes this puts you up against the rest of the world; but other times, you’re able to experience the holy grail of love. Don’t give up on your dreamy hopes for love and happiness this week. Keep communication open and don’t hesitate to discuss your hopes and wishes with the one you adore.
I think there is a “Feel Good” feeling after reading the above. Perhaps it is how they phrase the words that make you go "GaGa" but the bottom line is; it is still a bunch of craps.
Somehow I got this weird idea that came into my mind which I hope can be fulfill before I ORD. What is it like to see a reaction of the base personnel who refuse to either follow our instructions or act Guai Lan in front of us if I were to tell him I am carrying 30 rounds of ammunition with me. I bet it is going to be very comical but of course I am not going to try it because the consequence is going to be disastrous. After all, this is Singapore lei, not Somalia or Iraq.
Manchester United were lucky to draw 0-0 with Liverpool. Considering it as away game and with so many injuries, it is still a average result. However, the biggest winner is still Chelsea. Someone please beat them the next match!
The Duracell Bunny Run!
The Duracell Bunny Run!Yesterday I got very angry at night because I got fcuk not because I made any mistake but because the DSO was in bad mood and I just happen to be in his line of fire. I got very angry because he made use of his rank to make us look like clowns. He activated the alarm at 0030am and ordered us to run to the stadium grass patch area. Anyway, I got so angry that I took out my notebook and wrote all the stuffs he did wrong during his duty as a DSO. I have intended to report the incident to higher level of command the very next day (which is today). However, my hatred for him dissolved when I woke up 0630am in the morning and get prepared for morning peak duty. In the end, I decided to sux it up like a man, just like what the rest of my platoon mates did because we are not pussy but not without grumbling what an fcuk-up person he is.
If you like bikini babes, you are more likely to hang out at the beach more often. If you hot babes, you are more likely to go clubbing more often. If you like studious babes, you are more likely to hang out at Macdonald more often. If I like sporty babes, I am more likely to make an effort down the stadium to train up/maintain my 2.4 Km timing as well as earning an opportunity to witness sporty babe’s in her red color polo-T with her flowing long hair caressing against the wind as she glided across the track effortlessly putting many of us Men to shame. I think I will go to the stadium more often to improve my stamina. What about you Yuehong? Would you like to come along? Haha
With the current news that Gabriel Heinze has been ruled out for most of the season with a cruciate knee ligament injury, the next match between Manchester United and Liverpool seems to be a difficult one. Let’s hope John O Shea can do the job well. Ferguson goes sell Phil Neville. Look what happen now? Not enough cover! Dammit

One for Myself, One for You
If you have noticed why I am always so fierce recently, why I tend to smile less often, why I am so fired up, why I am looking for a punching bag, why am I doing this, why I wrote so many “grumbling” posts in my blog…I let you know why!
Somethings are omitted due to security issues of course!
Current Situation:
Training for platoon is set from **** before mounting duty at ****
Current concern:
For the mounting platoon
1) Concerns on whether time will be wasted on waiting to mount duty after training are over.
2) Concerns on whether we will be tired to continue doing duty after training.
4) Concerns on whether what activities is plan for lessons after we complete 1 training cycle. Are we going to go through the same stuff again after finishing the cycle or is there something else plan for us.
5) For platoon mounting on Sunday, the number of hours spends on doing duties can last up to **** What can be done to compensate us for the excess **** hours of duty when we have to book in at *** for the next duty day?
6) The projected timing for training is from ****. Since the training is supposed to be a “refresher” course, it also means we already know our stuffs before attending the lessons. Is there really a necessary to have **** hours of lessons before we mount duty?
For the dismounting platoon
1) Those that are doing graveyard shift from **** and**** are unlikely to have any rest after the morning peak. In fact, all of us are pretty exhausted after completing the morning peak duties. The only guys getting at least **** hours of uninterrupted sleep are the ones doing duty from **** but they are doing more “difficult” duty post in the morning for that benefit.
Current Situation:
NSmen strength failed to reach the projected targeted number repeatly.
Current concern:
1) Workload increased on each individual as we help to cover NSmen duty as well as performing ours at the same time.
2) **** The men are unhappy about how they are manipulated to cover for others inability to carry out their respective task well. Each time any problems surface, our head is always on the chopping board first before anybody else.
3) We hope we will be consulted in future for any decision made before it is implemented. After all we are the ones on the ground doing the work and we are able to foresee any problems and make constructive suggestions better than anyone else.
4) We hope to see more welfare and benefits available in return for our excess effort put in to cover for the **** instead of being squeezed dried just because we are always “expandable”. Please, we are humans, not robots and we do need a rest too.
And please Fellow Comrades, for the sake of ourselves, don't give up the struggle without putting in a good fight.
Don't Give Up. Fight On
Training to be soldier
Fight for our land
Once in a life
2 years of hard time
Have you ever wonder
Why must we serve
Because we love our land
And we want it to be free...to be free
Stand Up!
Be on your guard
Children having fun
While we are holding gun
Have you ever wonder
Why must we serve
Because we love our land
And we Lan Lan have to serve..have to serve
I love my land but I don't love Tuas Naval Base anymore.
Fight not for the sake of others but for ourselves.
Come Kill Us...Please
The weathers nowadays are killing us. In particular yesterday afternoon, the heat was so intense till I went and hid in one particular corner where the sunshine doesn’t strike. Kudos to Mr. Fighting Fish for standing inside the tents from 1300-1430 and 1600-1730! I was laughing my heart out when he described the heat wave as rising from the ground to the top of the tent and bounced down towards the ground again. The immediate thought that came into my mind was a microwave oven.
For the past 2 days, ITE students came to visit our base and of course the ships for the Naval Recruitment Program. Nowadays, students are so damned rich that we starred in wonder as we collected their surrendered camera handphones. We figured out that 1 bag full of the camera handphones + other accessories could fetch a price of $1000 alone and we have 5-6 bags in our possession. It makes me wonder why the government is still giving out so many aids to fellow Singaporeans in the first place.
Following a conversation with SY on why she didn’t introduced us any babe after 1 years at NTU, she replied she is powerless to do anything because it is flooded with all the PRCs. Dammit, I want to change course! Perhaps Science (Education) would be a better choice... Haha
Somehow I am starting to believe a female presence around might really help calm my temper down and keep my headstrong character in check. But alas, where are you Masami Nagasawa?
Crying Out Love, In the Center of the World - Masami Nagasawa
The Manchester Derby: Go Blast them Rooney!So what if you got Andy Cole and Stuart Pearce? We have Rooney and Ferguson Too!
Not your fault, not my fault, then whose fault ?
England lost 1-0 to
Northern Ireland because they didn’t play like a team. They lost because
Beckham tried to be a hero and do a
Zinedine Zidane when obviously he do not have the ability to do so and fell flat on his face. Stick to when you are best at the right midfield role dude!
It kinda of funny how fast situation change to contradict what you told us 2 days ago. We kept quiet because you said ultimately we might be slapping our mouth with our hands. Now it looks like your mouth is being slap by your own hands instead. I have absolutely nothing against you except I don’t like to bear the burden too often for others when they didn’t do their stuffs.
This morning, someone questioned my authority why I go and check his hand phone while the car in front of him pass through my post, I lost my temper and fcuk him upside down. I am not unreasonable type of person except he pisses me off very badly when I know exactly what I am doing.
I am a very bitter person when I’m pissed off while doing my duty.
I have been following this blog for quite some time and every time he post something up, it leave me very amused with his unique way of portraying the activities he been through or his views on recent news. Check this out @ http://rockson.blogspot.com/
I think this song will stay in my ipod shuffle for a very long time.
了解
等于结束的爱情 我和你 从两个窗口看出去
往事远远地 演着一场无声的电影 没人注意
躲着回忆的生体 带领我 和你的名字向前进
作废的曾经 留在离开你那天 挥不去
因为太了解 所以很伤心 没有你只好听着风的呼吸
却有种叫做时间的东西 说没问题 最后我们会痊愈
因为太了解 我无法坚定 这一次会要掉眼泪的决定
有些遗憾只能一个人听 很对不起 我还是珍惜 所有的事情
Wait; Wait and More Waiting
I don’t know what has happened recently but I seemed to be disillusion about everything I am currently doing. This in turn affects my temper which I noticed has been getting more volatile of late. At times when I am doing duty standing at the gate, I wait for the time to pass by; I wait for the next person to replace me; I wait for the next day to arrive so I can dismount; I wait till I’m sick and tired of waiting and ask myself why am I doing this.
Why am I waiting for the 1% chance of terrorists attacking while 99% of the time nothing will happen?
The more I think of it, the angrier I became. And therefore I always channel this anger into motivation to push myself hard during physical training. In a way, it allows me to vent my frustration instead of storing it up and consume my entire body.
And while doing duty is not enough, we had a whole list of endless prickly situations starring at us everyday. Just when can we finally thrash out the solutions for the same old problems ever since the age of time?
I need a source of motivation to carry on doing the stuffs I am doing which include keeping vigilance at all times and be prepared to fcuk all those people who attempt to do anything funny to our base upside down left and right.
Hear me rant, hear me grumble but come tomorrow the cycle is going to repeat again. There is no escape. 11 more months of monotonous cycle and I’m out of that place.
Happy Waiting…Everyone.
Funeral March
I had just watch finish a show on Channel U titled "
Funeral March" starring
Eason Chan and
Charlene Choi. Charlene still look as serene as ever even though she did not put on any make up during certain segment of the show. But I am not feeling happy even as I saw one of my favourite artist on the screen because the plot is quite tragic and it in turn cause my mood to turn out gloomy as well. Therefore even as I actually had something in my mind to blog about, I decided to post it another day instead.
If you lose your companion one day, what would you do? Would your life come to a standstill or would you try your very best to move on and slowly yet eventually forget his/her former existence?
I think I should not be watching the show in the first place. Too much tragic love story has cause me to get emotional. Dammit...
I am a Sua Ku
Yesterday, I went to Suntec Convention Hall to view the COMEX exhibition with KB, Darren and Jy. It was quite an eye opening event, not because the exhibition is very fantastic (I will elaborate on that later) but it was because of the mountains of people which are also making their way there. To be very frank, I can’t even remember when was the last time I’ve been to Citylink and was surprised at some of the changes made. For example, the coffee house (I can’t remember the name) with the big red comfortable sofa chairs have make way for TCC.CYMA is currently occupying the former Ig Heaven. French Connection UK is not there anymore and it has been replaced with Surfer Babe (am I right?) I don’t know how long the changes have been made and it makes me feel like the most Sua Ku person in Singapore in fact. I felt very uncomfortable and dizzy with the volumes of crowd weaving past me as traffic came to a standstill at the bridge linking Citylink to Suntec. It was actually JAMMED Pack with people and I wondered whether the bridge could support the weight of all the people on it or if not it could just collapse. Weird thinking of mine huh…Haha
The COMEX exhibition displays the same old stuffs. Cameras, Monitors, Printers and etc etc. The only devices that caught mine attention were the amount of devices available for wireless connectivity. I was lost with all the term they were describing and I feel so ashamed because after all I dealt with these stuffs before. I will be reading more of Wireless Connectivity on the website for the next few days. Did I forget to mention there were also quite a number of good looking female promoters?
Ate Carl Jr. for dinner and the damn burger was so big that I have a hard time stuffing it into my mouth. Jy, Darren and KB struggled to finish up the mountains of fries after I called it quits following an attempt to finish my share. We went past 1 of the travel shop in Marina Sq. and check out the airfare tickets to Bangkok, Hong Kong and Taiwan. Discussion were made on the spot, a little bit of banter here and there and came out with an agreement we will visit at least 2 of the 3 cities come next May.
Special Thanks to Bobby for making an effort to come down after his chalet to join us for Eric birthday supper treat. Special Thanks for Marcus for reserving his precious time for the gathering instead of spending it on his girlfriend even though it is already very limited. (It was me who psycho him till he succumb to mine pressure…Hahaha) Special thanks to Darren who did not lost frequency and complain a single word even though he had a 10km run the next day and we still hung out so late into the night. Special thanks to myself too who strangely co-ordinate the timing and thanks others even though it is not my birthday supper treat in the first place.
Come next week, it shall be Celin turn to celebrate her 22ndbirthday. Looking forward to it to see if she has any pretty single and available female friends to introduce during their birthday BBQ. Hahaha!
Pain...Pain..
I was very tired yesterday and therefore I ignored every other thing and turned myself in at 2030. I woke up suddenly at 0030 and felt so worried because I thought I had woke up late for my
midnight duty until I told myself…hold on a minute I am now at home, lying on my own bed and there is no duty at all. At 0630, I woke up again and felt so worried because I thought I will be late reporting to camp at 0800 until I told myself…hold on a minute I have no duty for this weekend. I took 1 hour to fall back to sleep again after that. Dammit. I am so devoted to my job. Any rewards for me such as early ORD release?
I got an ulcer on my tongue and lip because of my greediness and now it is causing me a lot of pain of the past 3 days. My pronunciation and communication has suffered as a result which caused people to ask why I am talking so strangely. I guessed I went mad and hungry that day and wolfed down 7 packets of Apollo chocolate wafer biscuits one straight down my mouth. I can blame no one but myself…sob sob
For those who have watched the Project Superstar on Thursday, I guessed you will agreed with me entirely Kelly was the better singer, better performer, better entertainer. Credits to Kelvin for his courage and ability to belt up one heartwarming song after another but is he going to continue down this path after he cut his album? Whatever the case, Kelly got signed on by Universal Music (Global) while Kelvin got signed on by Play Music (Local) if you noticed…thus I guess the title don’t really matter anymore. When the result was announced, cries of congratulation and whistle did not fill up the room. (I was doing duty and watched the show with my fellow campmates in the recreation room that day) Instead, all the vulgarities that you can imagine were belted out by all of us. (What can you do about Army guys anyway?) It was truely a comical sight.
Renjie officially ORD on 020905. Although I have only known him for 4 months, he has been a great guy to hang around with. He is very comical, very down to earth, a little bit like Sa Qiang (Tony Leung sidekick acted by Chapman To in the Infernal Affairs) I am so happy for him to ORD and he in turn wrote me a testimonial in my Friendster.
so long dear friend..
"hey dude,i guess i owe u a testimonial...this skinny n funny dude is one of my platoon mates..he came after his ssc,in fact he was the first guy from ssc5 i talk to..he was the guy who went to ops tailor with me.In the end,this guy end up in platoon 1..he's one hell of a funny,easy-going n friendly guy..he always put in 101% in the things he does..it's defintely my pleasure knowing u in NS.Thou u are a veri nice person,but u are an arse because u still refused to show mi ur one true love foto..i still dun have the time to dig out who exactly she is..lolx..somedae i will !!Trust Mi!! all the best Alex!! ur time will come ...ORD Loh!"
Thank You for your testimonial. I must say deep from my heart it’s my pleasure to continue being an arse. Haha
Strangely, he didn’t go slapping others across the face when he got back his pink IC. He explained just as he comes to TDS without any fanfare, he will do the same and leaves TDS the same way. Suddenly I felt he matured a lot since the last time I saw him. In turn I promised to myself when my day comes, I will also walk down the same ridden path as he took and leave TDS quietly and peacefully.
Upon reading Cynthia post for Thursday 1st September 2005, she struck me upside down left and right with her thoughts on “Detachment”. I was pretty impressed with the post though I felt the more appropriate book should be “5 Persons You Meet In Heaven” instead of “Tuesday with Morrie” to further reinforce your point. Unfortunately she brought me back to earth with her quizzy thing. But never mind not to worry, 2 step forward 1 step backward is still an improvement. All the way Cynthia!
