Wow. It's prob been eons since i blogged right. Haha. Anyway it's almost the end of my 2 weeks "confinement" in camp, coz i had sit test over the weekend. Wah. Can't wait to get home!! Drill squad prac has been intense coz comp is next monday. Orion must win!! Hahahaha :) anyway tomorrow going discovery centre, and fri is ippt, the real one. So wish me luck hope i like somehow manage to run fast and get gold hopefully? Haha. Ok anyway need to sleep now. I miss civilian world man, and all u chorale peeps! Hope to see everyone soon! :)

Gosh it has been ages since i blogged! And omg field camp is over!! hahaha. Honestly it wasn't as bad as expected. But then again, many things tend to turn out that way once you've done it. It's only when you're doing it that you feel super sian or whatever. Anyhow, SIT test next weekend so that's another mini field camp. But it's much more important for command school because that's where they assess the leadership abilities etc. Go me. Hahahaha.

Anyway i was super lucky because on thursday night, i was informed that i had PSC interview on friday! So guess what, i missed 1 day of field camp and booked out to mainland!! It was really really God's blessings and all because i was feeling quite homesick on thursday and i was just wishing and praying that i could see my family and friends that instant, and then my commander came and told me the good news =D And what was so surprising was that when i got home, i called PSC and they told me it was a mistake and i wasn't scheduled for an interview! Imagine my surprise haha. I felt a bit bad la because i ended up booking out for no reason while my friends were still in camp. But at least i found out that i booked out on the slackest day of field camp so i didn't miss much, although i had the privilege of bathing haha. But oh well, now that we're all out, everyone is equally clean =D

Okay i need to stop now and go and do a reflection on field camp. My SIT test is over the weekend so i guess that means i won't book out till the following weekend =( This is almost like the 1st  two weeks of confinment. But you know, it's not THAT bad. After this 2 weeks, there's only 1.5 weeks left of BMT before we pass out!! =D

hi friends.

-screams- field camp this coming week haha. Well, it sounds scary. But to me, no matter what, time goes by and 6 days will eventually end and no matter how bad it gets i'll still make it through =) And i think that thought keeps me positive and will keep me going for the next 6 days! And the thought of booking out on sat night haha. Yay =) Field camp can't be THAT bad right?? =D I mean for years people have made it through, and even my own friends have made it through. Yay go us, whoever hasn't had it yet. xD

Anyway today had my 3rd driving lesson and i've finished stage 1 in 3 lessons! Haha. All the instructors say i very good and got potential -beams- so tomorrow is review of stage 1 and the next lesson (which will be eons away because of field camp and SIT test) will be stage 2. 

Yep. Went to see doctor this morning too because my cough etc got worse after the late night last monday during live range =( I seriously hope i get better and get well soon so that i won't suffer too much during field camp. 

Ok time to sleep and rest and let my body recover. Goodnight y'all and see you all soon!

Hi y'all! Haha went to visit chorale today and I AM SO JEALOUS because they are singing dieu! What a beautiful song. They better do it super nicely. And their concert is on 13th march which is just 3 days after POP (passing out parade) for me and so i'm/we're likely to be able to go for it!! Although it'll be held in school la but still. =)))) Apparently theme for this year is romantic (unlike our sacred theme last year) but it should still be nice and enjoyable. At least the theme isn't like 21st century or something lol. 

Anyway. Booking in at 8.20pm tomorrow. Ahh okay i hope i don't get RT or not next week can only come out on saturday afternoon. 

Yawn. I am super tired. Tonight i shall aim to sleep early, and sleep in till super late tomorrow morning. Wah last night i had a very bad cough and i woke up in the middle of the night at 2am and just coughed and coughed and i felt like dying lol. Argh hate being sick =( No voice to sing also! Like just now visiting chorale then very sad because couldn't sing along or what. Oh wellz. I hope i get well by field camp or not it'll be even worse. Rawr.

Ok i am going to rest now. Haha. See y'all soon! =)

Whee! Today is book out day! Can't wait to see everyone and my family and my cute little hamsters!! So gonna squeeze them! Yay! =D

Multimedia message

Joy! Tomorrow booking out at 430pm. Should reach pasir ris around 510pm can't wait. Yay. Cough still bad but whatever happy. I'm enjoying close combat training Haha it's like using body parts to defend when face to face with enemy then practising all the punches and stuff is quite fun. Kicks also. Lala. Ok time to sleep now. Yay next 3 nights in my lovely heavenly big bed!

Crap i'm sick with cough sore throat. Hopefully flu doesn't develop. Reported sick this morning so I've medicine. Tomorrow missing 6km route march so that probably means I've to stay an extra saturday to make up for it. Sigh. Pray it's not the week after CNY or not I'll have to miss going back to chorale. Bleh. Ok pray that i get well soon too Haha. Goodnight! Hate the daily lack of sleep. Sigh.

I finally read the envelope the girls gave yesterday after our platoon got punished. Was feeling quite down so reading that really really cheered me up. Thanks ladies for preparing all the farewell stuff and all. Haha. Miss everyone a lot a lot. Oh i got silver for my first ippt which is quite good Yay because there were only 2 golds and 4 silvers in my 50 men platoon! Yea. Ok i shall go sleep now. Tomorrow is full of physical stuff. Sigh. Nights friends. Love y'all.

Hi friends! Hope this gets through. I'm alive and slowly adapting to life here. And well, it ain't really THAT bad but i suppose there's more to come. Sometimes i even enjoy the training Haha. Yea. But gotta wake up at 530 and sleep at 1030 everyday. I think I'll just sleep away my first day when i book out. Ok well. Time to sleep. Hope all the ladies are enjoying themselves and deeply missing us. Oh this morning during the run i flashbacked to caroling and imagined all your happy faces singing glory manger (the pulse is very good for the speed we were running at) and that really helped to make the run go by so much faster! And remembering all the happy faces made me smile. :) love you all and miss everyone greatly. Goodnight!

Hello. Sending this from my phone. Seeing if it works. If it does means i can blog from camp! HahaHaha. Ok bye friends love you all remember to miss me like i'll miss everyone k? Yay. Go me. Go all the guys! We can do it =D

Hmmm. Finally tomorrow I'm going in. 

It's just so surreal. When my brother went into army when i was just Primary 4, it seemed like 'urgh omg army is SO far away'. I mean, there was still 2 years of P school, THEN secondary school, THEN jc. But then now it all just went by so quickly! And in less than 24 hours' time i'll be on tekong dunno doing what already. 

Well, it's just a new chapter in my life i guess. And whether i like it or not now doesn't matter, because i still have to go through it anyway. So i shall go in with an open mind and just do my best in it. And keep a positive mind because being negative about it is probably just going to make things worse. Yay. =))

And look forward to weekends. And stuff. And looking hot at the end of it. Heh.

Time for lunch! =)

SO I AM QUITE TIPSY NOW BECAUSE I JUST WENT TO SOME BAR AHAHAHA AND HAD 2 DRINKS. ALTHOUGH AFTER THE 1ST, WHICH WAS SOME SUPER STRONG DRINK I KINDA GOT GIDDY AND WHEN I STOOD UP I TOTALLY KNOCKED OVER MY 2ND GLASS SO I WASTED HALF A GLASS OF DRINK AND THAT'S LIKE $9 OH MY GOD SO DUMB AHAHA. BUT IT WAS SUPER FUN AND NOW I'M VERY HIGH.

AND I REALLY HOPE I DON'T GET A HANGOVER TOMORROW. LUCKILY I'M NOT DOING ANYTHING TOMORROW SO I CAN JUST STAY AT HOME AND SLEEP AND STUFF.

YAY.

HAPPY NEW YEAR Y'ALL. 

PS: A screaming orgasm doesn't taste very nice..

Hi friends. Happy day-after-boxing-day day! Anw omg i think our videos from WYCF are super nice. Okay. Lux and if i can help are gorgeous. At least to me. Haha.. Yay love us. And i'm quite bored and nothing to do since caroling is over =(

I'm really sorry about Christmas day and what happened. Quotes email: 

"Dear Christopher,

 

Thank you for the quotation. I’m pleased to confirm your session @ Snow City Singapore on 25th Dec. "

But apparently since we didn't actually sign a written contract so burst. I guess we'll/i'll just have to be more careful next time. 

But anyhow, i hope everyone had a Merry Christmas singing in front of a roaring dinasaur and singing random songs which failed terribly due to a soloist who couldn't deliver xD. And of course randomness at Geoffrey's house! Like silent heart attack and sweet corn (which didn't turn out that sweet after all sadly..) Hahaha.

Well so i guess this really is the end of the whole chorale journey. And i think everyone remembers clearly the ups and downs. The happy and sad. And everyone has their own personal experience. I wouldn't say mine was a joy ride the entire time. There certainly were times where it was painful and tiring and i was like 'omg chris just give up and die you're so not good at this just let someone else do it' but i'm glad that in a way i didn't just give up and die because i've really learnt a lot from everyone. And i think all of us learnt a lot from each other, and we're now so close and if you think about it, we all have a part of each other in each of us in 1 way or another.

I just hope that now that we're going our separate ways, we will all still remain close and once in a while, come back and sing together and recreate what we did in our 2 years in chorale. Because it'll just be such a waste if we don't. 

I think i've told many people this. But a friend once said 'Your batch isn't elitist. It's just elite.'

We really are special =) And so thank you everyone for everything. May chorale batch of 2008 never die!

OH. MY GOD.

The last male who used my toilet today didn't flush omg damn gross it was festering in my toilet bowl until just now oh my god. Gross.

Anyway.

Hi!! I'm back from Japan as y'all probably know and it was quite fun, though the snow wasn't as good as how it is in February when it's right in the middle of winter. (Now is still early winter) Yeah but coz we went with friends as well so had fun skiing with them also la. Well, last holiday i'll have in a while, so i'm glad that i did enjoy it much. =)

Anyway the past few days of caroling have been well, rather intense. And ahem unfortunately, many nice places that were supposed to be nice didn't turn out to be as expected =( But haha i think still quite funny la just try our best and blast and whatever. Anw changi village should be nice, from last year's experience. At least it's in doors and air con and condenser mics. Yep. Well tmr is 2nd last day of caroling! 2nd last day of us singing together for a long time =( Sigh. Gosh, only 15 more days before I go into army. It's suddenly so near. 

Aiya, ok. I shall just enjoy the rest of my holidays because there's not going to be much enjoyment in the next 2 years. So, go me. Go us. Go all the guys! And all the girls too, especially when all the guys are gone. Don't deny it won't be the same without us lovely masculine beings =)))) And it surely won't be the same without you ladies. Eurgh. 2 years of maleness ahead o.O 

Joy to the world -.-

Haha. Well alright think i'll rest soon. Despite having more time to sleep this morning, i'm somehow still unable to sleep much. Maybe i also shouldn't get too used to sleeping too much. Sigh. Ok see what my body decides to do tmr morning. haha. Ok goodnight! See y'all tomorrow =)

Thanks for the leg cramp =(

Emotion: Disappointment. 

1st thought that came to my mind: Don't you take physics? Ever heard of friction between butt and table which will cause table to topple? 

2nd thought that came to my mind: xD Neh not telling any of you heeheeheee...

Well anyway whatever. Don't know why i'm feeling disappointed.

For everyone else, I AM LEAVING FOR JAPAN TONIGHT AND COMING BACK ONLY ON 21ST OF DECEMBER IN TIME FOR THE 2ND PERFORMANCE OF ESPLANADE!!!!! PRAY THAT I HAVE MY VOICE AND MY LIMBS IN PLACE SO THAT I CAN SING! YAY. HAHAHAHA. 

=)))) Well ok see you all and good luck for marina and the 1st night of esplanade performance. 

=(

I guess that marks the end of my/our/j2s journey in Raffles Chorale. But I think we really pulled of a more than decent performance tonight =) Or last night. And lux had goose bumply moments at the end at 'natum' and i was really like wow. Maybe it was just my imagination or what but oh well. I'll keep it as that, as a happy memory. And the ending of if i can help was quite yummy too i think =)

Well anyway. 

Hrm.

Okay i've a lot of things i feel like saying and want to say. But neh. Maybe another day... 

Well i think imma blow my hair and sleep and prepare myself mentally for a croaky voice tomorrow. Sigh. I'm almost 100% sure i'm going to sound like a frog and have a range of a ******* tomorrow oh sian means i can't sing above like, i dunno. A. Or something =( And have no falsetto. Ahhhhhh. Okay -metally prepares-

Okay. 

Is prepared.

Okay go me.

Yay lubbx yoo J2s.

Okay this is an edit. Anw, just now i bought coffee from gloria jean's, and then i realised that it was so apt, because they use a brand of milk from Australia called 'pura'. =D.

-koped from website- 

As Australia's No.1 milk brand1 not only does Pura milk taste great, it's naturally full of nutrients. Pura Wellbeing has lots of health tips, delicious recipes and nutrition information to help you lead a full and balanced lifestyle.

Haha. Yeah. Reminded me of lux and how beautiful it is. Graaaavisquare.

WAHAHAHA. WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Ok NOBODY is allowed to ask me why i'm so high. Just know that it's gotta do with chorale prac today aha and things that happened at prac.

Anyway omg i was thrown back to pre-trip time. Especially when we did wade, and the WONG WONG sound was back i was almost squealing in delight like rhino in bolt and then the tiredness, and omg the nagging at the end when Mr Toh told us to sleep well and everything. Sigh. And tomorrow is seriously seriously going to be our last time as Raffles Chorale. How sad is that =( But i'm glad i had/have this to look forward to after As because i think i wouldn't know exactly what to do with my time otherwise. And this is really where i find all my joy and fun and happiness throughout my 2 years in RJ, and it really just rocks to end it all back with chorale =) (instead of like As... ew) 

OMG. WE BETTER BE SOME DAMN PRO SHIT TOMORROW OH. MY GOD. IT'S MY LAST TIME PERFORMING AS CHORALE!!!!! =((((((((((((((((((((((((( -SCREAMS- Ahhhh nooo. Oh gosh omg ok. =((( Ah this is damn sad. I'm damn sad. =( okay i will sleep soon. Rest my voice. (So that i can sing the best ever 'calida') And pwnz like some cow tomorrow. =) Yaaaay. GO US. 

=)

=))))))

Well ahaha love is just such a wonderful thing. Whether it's love for people or for animals or for things we like doing. It really really can make someone's mood go from zz ZHOOP to =DDDD. And i guess it's all the =DDD times that we all treasure and look for. Aha. Ok so must treasure. Treasure big big. 

Okay i'm starting to become incoherent. Goodnight! Yay go us may we pwnz the concert. =)

Fwah. Yay really got exponential increase =D. I have to stop conducting with my fingers they're really tired o.O Anyway so happy that we found the problem of why lux is going sharp, which is funny because lux used to go flat on trip. Must be rearrangement of people, or difference in balance or something? Oh well nehhmind the almighty Mr Toh will be back tomorrow haha and hope we don't get screamed at. Okay la but if we sing like today then i think we'll be fine =))))

Anw yayyy i passed my basic theory internal evaluation today! My real test is on 6th Jan and the driving centre (for dunno what reason) requires me to pass the internal evaluation at least 2 weeks before. So that means 22nd Dec, which is 1 day after i return from hols. So i realised only yesterday that i would have to take the test this week! So i faster booked and mugged for 3 hours until 1230am haha. So i am chao tired now. I shall sleep soon when my hair dries. Anw tmr can wake up late wootz!!!! 

Goodnight y'all! Yay we rock. Lux is niiice.

Oh gosh i'm such a fat pig. After prac i went to eat swensens, came home, and slept until now. And it's 7pm and oh well, time for dinner. Zzzzz. Omg i was supposed to exercise yo? Okay i don't care better do it tomorrow morning. Go me.

Anyway. Aha. Message from Mr Toh y'all!

"Yes, will be flying back in 10 hours time.  Will see you all on wed night.  Please don't shock me.  Heart is weak ...."

Aha. Good luck to us. But today i think was vast improvement already la. So yay. Maybe exponential curve then ZHOOP upwards!!! Yay go us!

That day i was dunno doing what and it just occurred to me that ggxx! WYCF and caroling really are the last time I'm going to sing before eons later. And like ahhh this is so sad! You know it's like, throughout the 2 JC years, it's like. Of course i knew chorale would end one day. But somehow, there were always things to look forward to. Like after SYF last year, there was open house to look forward to. Then RCS trip. Caroling. This year's concert. Trip. And many of us thought trip would be the end of it, but no! In came vocal delights. And then i thought that would be the end. But No! Next came RI concert. And i thought that would again be the end. But no, now there's WYCF and caroling. But i really see no way in which there can possibly be another choral performance after caroling is over. 

And i think that's when i'll know that it's really, truly, over for good. Not until a few years later.

I now hope that everything just ends well and we have no regrets about all the performances we've put up. I know i will, because chorale means all the world to me.
