Another while since i last blogged...but alotta things happenin in a short wk, i shd sae...

i shd not had been part of the eff to help out D coy in the organisation of the ndp, but heck, guess the others does not like wad the csm was sayin...dun like the idea of rottin in camp wither...was asked out to help out at the ntuc HQ...rite in the city...yes, it is long since i last contact the city, and when i was at the raffles area, i found myself astounded...which sounded ridiculous...

i'm pretty not used to being oneself when roaming around when literally notin is on my mind...it was a simple walk round the raffles square to find somethin for lunch and to help pack for dear PC, but i felt an unholy chill when i walk...its was definitely uncomfortable, walkin by yrself when notin is in yr mind while u watch the crowd of businessmen and businesswomen dashin round, assif they r engaged in some urgent matters (which shd b)...

could have taken a nites off frm dere, but pc got a bus arranged, so we made do with it and got bk to camp...slpin considerin the fact dat the whole stuff dere was packed with stuffs to do...oh, i met guang wei at ntuc as well!...it was concidential dat his unit was attached to us for the whole ndp NE show stuff...we were runnin out of Army Liason Personnels (ALP) cos of the small coy strength...much more a move welcome...frm my short conv wid him, it certainly lks like guang wei had alotta stuff to handle, juggling ALP duty and unit training (WHAT? In the middle of ndp?)...

my 2nd concidental meetin was wid kai heng, rite the day after in range...but alas, things felt cold dere...it seems dat i can talk wid him better on the phone rather den face-to-face...but thing is dat he has not chnaged much at all...dat i take as a gd thing...i still bo-bo as usual (hearing the pleas of my colleges to make a shot outta me does me make me nervous enough)...all did well in the day shoot (lks like an av of 75%) but the nite shoot was the killer...all passed, but no marksman..

the 3rd encounter was (AT LAST, 1 wish fulfilled!) with the 12d gang at (surprise, surprise) irene's home...was her homecomin and she was tryin to lure all of the gang...turns out dat the tunrout rate was great, with onli zhen jie and kai heng not being able to attend...irene's home reminded me strongly of a scene i had not seen in awhile...the scene of my grandmother's home during CNY...alot of aunties and uncles gatherin around the tv, mahjong table...except dat they play mahjong, not the playin cards used in her home...no doubt, for a home newly owned 3 wks bk, it lks well furnished...

it certainly lightens my heart to c all of my pals still in gd shape...hannah got longer hair, rochester some bit thinner (although the girls commented he lost a lot...)...but otherwise, lks like nobody had changed (although roach did commented dat irene was a bit chubbier...haha, no hard feelins)...the atmosphere certainly felt like home, bk 2 yrs...roach was, as usual, the centre of attention, makin gd laugh outta the same affair dat tk 12d by storm 2 yrs ago and being the dear of the ladies...his charm certainly is, as usual, undeniable...

things r livin up again actually, with 1 bbq and another gatherin scheduled...

but H1N1 came.

dat troublesome virus struck our camp outta nowhere and in a wkend, we got 8 cases...most of us got quarantined, but the specs came bk for duties and distribution of tamiflu...ndp certainly may not b the same again...

well, nough talk, feelin fine and mighty, but nd to get bk to camp soon...got duties to fulfill!
