yeah last minute blog time! hahaha.. well today was madness.. I was running around almost a good half of singapore.. and I'm very tired! i think the beginning of the week until now so far has not been good... thankfully and hopefully I can rest when I'm in Aus..!!! here's how my tour began..
I stayed home to rest last night! which is a good thing.. finally got to be away from camp.. then went to meet Allan at beach rd.. wanted to get some army stuff for aus.. but when we got there, it was all closed!! apparantly army market don't operate in the mornings!! Practically the whole market was closed loh.. not one stall was open!! and this was at 10am! ok so we decided to try Golden Mile Tower, also no luck!!
Next.. we headed to Orange Grove Rd to IDP, which handles all the Australian Uni applications and stuff, cos Allan needed to check out his uni stuff, so I just accompanied him. Then we went to Far East for lunch... had chicken rice.. that was good! hahaha.. yep then had a short chat with Allan's sister at her shop..
advertisement... Go check out her shop! It's called
Mudan... go check out her website yeah?! sells pretty neat stuff!!
ok after that went back camp... on the way had a quick haircut at this place in AMK called QuickCuts... u know the $10 for 10mins thingy? yeah tried that... it was pretty good.. didn't really like the way he cut my hair.. but Allan says its good.. and he did it 10mins on the dot! timed it secretly.. hahah!! but i think for $10 i'd rather go to my camp barber.. and he charges only $5...
ok then went back to camp.. I was running around in camp like another mad dog... had to confirm to get compasses... then must calibrate.. then must go print out training safety regulations, safety forms, etc etc etc to bring up to Australia... then got Gabriel (my spec) to drive us out to Nee Soon camp opposite to get the army supplies.. (thanks Gab!) before coming back to camp again.. after all that was done, I was already super tired!!! but finally i managed to go home.. with a very big bag... and pop came a empty merc cab for me to take!! Praise God for that!!
then I just came back from having some supper with some of the ppl from VFC... thanks for the company and I'll try to find something for you guys!! hehehe.. just some flight details for all of you... I'm leaving this Friday on SQ8931 at 9pm.. and I'm coming back on 9th Nov on flight SQ8934 at 3:45am!!!! so don't bother to come and send me off or anything.. besides its army flight.. don't bother.. hahah!! well time to rest... got to go Bedok Camp (again!) tom morning!! sianz... oh well... gdnite world!!
