A quick post

Been dormant for about a month now, and finally I seem to have some time on my hands to enter a quick entry before I go sleep.

I have a confession to make, and that will be that I have gone back to playing Conquer Online (CO) again. But the recent update has killed a utility that I used to compress time and get around faster, so well I’m parking in town for now. Hence the time? Maybe.

Anyway, I’ve been meaning to blog, but either by the time I got to sitting down to type it out, I was either not in the mood or my mind went completely blank due to being overly tired. But I have finally managed to find the time, when I took an MC on Mon. Was intending to get one day MC to get some time out, but the doctor was willing to give me 2 days for my efforts. Who am I to complain about such a generous offer? So I got the 2 days MC. And let me tell you, suddenly it is heaven. When no one is home to bug me about doing stuff and sleeping too late, I suddenly have time to catch up on all the sleep I seem to have missed. Especially since last Wed I’d might add.

Well the month has passed pretty fast. With careful planning and considerations, I managed to get a super long weekend from camp with a mix of leave and off, starting from the Wed before my test to my birthday. Only went back to camp the following Wed, which coincidentally ended on Thurs due to the Vesak day hols. Hahaha…

On polling day(6th), went out with Wei Wen, Wendy, .com, Adam and a few others to celebrate with a movie and dinner, but well, without my debit card which has still yet to arrive, we were unable to get seats to see MI:III. So after wondering around for some time, we finally settled on a animated movie. The name has slipped my mind. .com had to go back home to vote while we watched the movie, and re joined us again for dinner, which was my treat. We went NYDC to eat and the food there was fantastic. Too bad Adam got into a fight with his gf just before we were going to meet for dinner so he didn’t join us. Hen-pecked I say… Hen-pecked guy and he’s not even married to her yet. Hahaha… After dinner Wei Wen took us to some roof top garden at a hotel I shall not mention. The view has nice, but has left me longing for the view from the top of the Westin Stanford, from the roof not the restaurant at the top. Anyone knows how to get there? Heehee…. So that is half a month gone, just like that.

If you are wondering what happened on Wed, well, I had guard duty. It normally would have not been that tiring except for the fact that there was an exercise going on that night, thus depriving me of any sleep whatsoever from Wed to Thurs. And talk that there was going to be an extra day off from all that work, were all but talk. So those of you living near the base, who were woken up on Wed night just past midnight, you now know why. So whilst the rest of the guard team took Fri MC, I hearing that Fri was family day, decided against doing so. But again, family day was not so good after all. It just meant that flying had to stop at 1630. That was all. So I took MC on Mon. Heehee… Turned out to be well worth it!

The IT Show is coming to town this weekend for those who are still unaware. And I won’t blame you too if you didn’t know. There seems to be the lack of publicity for this event. All there was was a small ad one day in the papers. Perhaps due to their past success, so they think that people would expect them this time of the year. Maybe they are right. We will see. Going to replace my present monitor with a 19” LCD and get myself that camera that I’ve been planning to get. My present monitor has been fading to black recently, and also been emitting this irritating ‘flat line’ sound, only at a higher pitch. So I have decided, its either I replace it now, with a good deal, rather than wait till it dies in the middle of some night and leave me scrambling for a monitor. I am so going broke this weekend.

Its getting late, or rather its getting ‘early’ now and I gtg sleep. Ciao~
