STORIE =]

Lets juz say its been a bad day for me, as i went for my usual EPT every morning at the basketball court, the rest of the guys had field pack inspection, due to the coming Exercise Concorde. I returned to the mess to change up after my EPT, and was horrified to find my fieldpack gone, the entire fieldpack was "stunned", and a couple other fieldpacks were ransacked, apparently by the guys getting their fieldpacks inspected but had missing items...
I went around asking ppl if anyone took my fieldpack for inspection, but got negative responses, then came the cold hard truth... I found my no.4 uniform in the dustbin!!! The thief had apparently decided to keep my fieldpack for good and not returning it to where it was, thus throwing away the only clue to identification of my fieldpack...
After further probing, a name came up, this guy dosen have a fieldpack but his fieldpack inspection was "sui sui", so i confronted him and obviously he denied my claims, and even had the cheek to show me "his" fieldpack, which was empty... The fieldpack further confirms my suspicion, though my stuff were gone, but the sticky stuff left behind by my duck tapes at the exact position was enuf to tell me the fieldpack was mine...
Faced with no other options, i complained to a warrant officer, and he subsequently ordered a 100% locker check of all personnel... Perhaps it scared the shit outta him, juz before the locker check, he admitted to me tat he and another guy had did it, they threw away my uniform and kept the other stuff in a separate locker. The guy pleaded me not to expose their deeds, as they had already been into the SAF Shangri-la Hotel once for smoking inside the explosive areas... I didn't know why i agreed, but nonetheless i did, and pretended to search the stuffs of my frenz while i had alady known where my stuff were kept...
In the end i recovered all my stuff, heaved a sigh of relief... I don't know if i did the right thing, but i honestly cant bear to see fellow army slaves extending their ORD dates, it dosen really matter to me as long as all my stuff can be found... But if he could have admitted when i first confronted him, then things wun get so blown up, we could have settled it ourselves...
Maybe its retribution, a few weeks back i did something really bad, but i really had no other choice but to do it, and u can say i was expecting something to come back to me... It really did! Sigh... made me worried the entire day, but many thanks to my fellow platoon mates for covering my work while i sorted out my fieldpack thingy, felt so bad today for not contributing to a single piece of work...
The Earth is round, wad goes around comes around!!!

This weekend was quite stressful, i'm so mentally tired... Shan't elaborate on the actual reasons, to put it simply i juz cannot be at home, will have trouble, so i was like trying my best to go out the entire weekend...
On sat after RT i went for party world with my camp ppl, then ate at Sakae Sushi, and went to labyrinth to play pool... Wa lan, spent super alot of money la, I'm left with ard 100 bucks till the 10th March... LOL!!! (the money includes the fees of 2 driving lessons!!!)
This morning played soccer, with the old guys, long time never play liao so quite fun la... But as usual i sucked, i have lost my touch for soccer la... Sianz... Think i try to slim down first lor... Hahaz! Then this evening went to harbourfront to visit the BIG sale, electronics and computer stuffs, quite uneventful lor, cos its like so crowded and the varieties so limited, the stuffs are not tat cheap actually even though they claimed up to 90% discounts...
Tmrl and wed i'll be on duty, first time doing alternate duties, dunno how shagged i'll be... LOL!!! We'll see la, its better to complete my duties this week, cos Exercise Concorde is likely to be on next week, muz not miss the chance to claim more off days, LOL!!!

Too shagged to blog yesterday, cos i played overnight mahjong on saturday, woke up at 2pm on sunday for my driving lesson, had dinner and went back to sleep soon after...
Again i lost money in mahjong, no choice since i'm beginner, but i'm starting to get the hang of the game, shld play much better next time... As for my driving, did 3 test routes yesterday, and i muz conclude that route 1 is the easiest of the lot... And i muz comment that ubi certainly has alot of slopy grounds, muz always maintain half clutch to prevent roll-back... Also saw the infamous big big yellow box b4 a traffic light tat TYS mentioned, its a really tricky junction, gotta observe the traffic light from a long distance away, otherwise confirm kena trapped inside yellow box if the lights turn red...
There's gonna be RT every single day now, super duper sian... Which makes me think tat it might juz be about time to make the trip down to Maju Camp and start the long hard process of downgrading my PES status to get outta all this shit... LOL!!! We'll see how...

I learnt parallel parking yesterday, quite easy but the distance is very hard to gauge, cos the views are very deceiving... the front poles look nearer than they actually are, while the back poles look further than they actually are, which caused me to hit a rear pole...
Personally i feel that my low-speed control still sucks, and i have a tendency of over-steering while making right-turns, not alot la and i can steer back lor... Other than that the rest shld be test-standard liao... LOL!
After that met up with my campmates for pool, one of them is national u-21 8-ball champion... I won him in my 9-ball game, cos he scratched and left me with a easy 6-9 combination!!! But 8-ball he really damn "shen"... I played him 3 times, lost by 3 balls, 2 balls and 1 ball respectively... He played with my other weaker frenz with handicaps like left hand only, or taking off his glasses, but still thrashed them... haha...
After tat went to PS for dinner, finally tried the "grilled chicken set" DW was always talking about, its really nice, no wonder DW is so obsessed... Then watched a movie, Fun with Dick and Jane, really funny show, cannot stop laughing at all... Also met jason mason at the arcade... LOL!!!
