Well...last monday, finaaly went for my sea boat expedition with my corhort and we got to paddle from Changi to Sembawang.
However, during the 1 day, we didn't paddle much and mostly we turn on the OBM and charge to the destination as on the schedule. It is also a bad weather coz it tends to turn to bad weather aduring the afternoon and we waited at Paris Ris Park until almost sunset. In order to catch up the time line, we charge all the from there to Sembawang and reach around 8pm.
It seems to be very relax, but things happen to come...the next day, we set sail at 6.30am and during this time. We are not allow to speak a single word and if any one answer back to the instructor, the whole sea boat members got to jump into the sea.
Anyway, my sea boat paddle all the way from Sembawang to Punggol Beach almost 3hrs and had been leading. After the lunch break, we paddle from punggol beach till Paris Ris and it is a competition been brought up by the instructors as whos ever seaboat over take the WO Yeo sea boat will earn a can of soft drinks individual. So my seaboat came to the second and haha...
After that, we still continue to paddle from Pasir Ris park to Changi Beach and everyone was dying coz of the hot weather...and we are granted to turn on the OBM. Finally everyone reach back Changi safety...
However, most of us got sunburn...and it is badly burn just like we have gone in to a fire scene and got roasted...whaha...now i still having my skin peeling...Yucks

National Education
Well... Its been a few years ago that I still remember when I attend the National Education in my poly times. Currently, just happen that my POC course have this course module insert. So on thur and fri, went to Bukit Merah at Spring Building and attend it.
The lessons consist alot of the past Singapore history that had gone through and how we overcome it. It also have indicate the challenges we are going to face. After the whole 2 days lessons, have alot of thoughts that every individual have its part to play in the role as a Singaporean. Especially facing the challenges in the upcoming years ahead. I know that it is impossible to let everyone to be know their part, but if those have chance to attend the course, they will feel the same as I did. Been the sense of belonging in Singapore. Thats all...
Anyway, during this course I also visited the URA whereby we have a tour on the Singapore City Gallery. It is an exhibition done by the URA where, tourist and Singaporeans can go there visit. It really test how well you know about Singapore's land use, heritage, nature reserves and other intriguing facts in a fun, interactive quiz show hosted by Gurmit Singh. Will be very shock to hear the answers. I also put my hand at the various planning tools for urban design at the Planners' Table. There are also a wall for us to read about people's wants and wishes for their ideal city. Beside these, there are more information that what's coming up next, what can Singapore be 40 years into the 21st Century. With more than 30 hands-on interractive exhibits, a visit promises to be an enjoyable self-discovery. Do come to visit together with friends.
Singapore a virbant country to live, work and play.

Been Nice
Well, I dunno why today seems isn't the day for me. Feel so rebellious and wanted to do something funny. Yet really i dunno whether I did it for my rights or not.
Actually, it is about the standing rounds for the cabin and the level. Coz usually everyday, we have rounds conducted during the evening time whereby everyone have to do domestic on the individual cabin and ensure the level are clean so that the officer of the day will inspect when he/she came for their rounds.
Well, becoz of our cabin people have limited people just only 3 persons staying in. And the rest of the cabins wants us to provide people to stand for rounds. Actually in the beginning we have make an agreement that everyone should stand for the level rounds but it became to rotation on cabin. Feel been cheated and my cabin people have been standing more than twice and the rest think that we should stand. Feel abit angry coz they never think in our shoes and the agreement is set by them and yet they are the one who broken it. I rally can't tolerate it so just really dun bother it. So eventually, my cabin didn't want to provide people to stand as level I/C and the rest are irriated by our action.
I just dunno why...is it been nice and never voice out. Now I dun care much. Just like that i think i will wait things to happen. Dun really bother much...
Well...anyway...i guess that is reality. Got to face the world. Haiz!

Toothache
Today finally went to see the dentist in the camp as I already book an appointment on mon. So I thought that only tooth decay so just require to remove the decay part and do the filling, but when the dentist further exam-in, he found out that mostly is not the tooth decay causing it to have the toothache. He found out that my last tooth got abit weird when the show the x-ray. What he found out is that my last tooth, in the centre have a crack line. He suspect that this the real reason that causes to have the pain.
Coz the bateria might have slip into the tooth through the crack line and he wanted to further exam-in on this coming mon as he will drill the hole and check whether the crack is it goes into the centre of the tooth. In the worst case, I might lose this tooth.
He also mention that if remove the tooth, i have 3 options.
1) Just leave it nothing but might feel uncomfortable in the beginning...sound werid to me
2) Inplant another tooth that might cost >$1K...sweat again...
3) a denture...very silly coz just only 1 tooth...
If the tooth can be save, i will have 2 options
1) Root canal...in the future it might drop off due to the grinding...
2) Root canal and crown...best way to protect the tooth...
Well, I really dunno how...just hoping the best and pray that my tooth can be save...

Finally!
Yeah! Finally everything is over and I can slowly catch my breath back. Abit panic during the presentation to the cohort and yup. Everything is approve. Now just waiting for the rest to prepare for the coming 20th n 21st expedition.
Everything are going to indent by us and we need to coordinate with the rest of different units. Anyway, time files so fast. Just left only a month and I'm going to pass out from the course. Learn alot of things during this course...like the seamanship, seaboat handling, managment, communication and lotsa things that I never think of. Feel quite enriching for coming to this POC, even sometimes I need to rush with the assignments, projects and duties. Futhermore still got been wack by OC. But think back, I've grown more mature in thinking and maybe...I can be a leader in future.
Well...another thing is that...today...she is flying back. Feeling something different in my mind and with this, couldn't sleep for the past few days...keep thinking of her. How can I ask her out...think alot of things...but all negative. Haiz! Feeling really down now and uneasy...she will be back in another hr. Worst of all, this coming friday I got duty, so could go to 85 to meet her and her jiemeis...den sat, I still got the YDC meeting for the organising the dec camp for the new members. Kinda sad...hope can really ask her out and get to know her more.
I just in a state of uncertain. Anyway, I just hope everything will be fine and hope one day she can accept me.

당신은...나는 바보입니다 - Stay
宮 主題曲 Stay - 你是…… 我是笨蛋
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B-1OgVzvoyE
난 바보였었죠. 내가 바보였었죠.
我是傻瓜 我是笨蛋吧
후회해도 늦었죠 알죠 돌이킬 순 없죠
後悔也已經晚了 我知道 無法再回頭
그댈 볼 수 없어요 나도 알고 있어요
再也看不到你 我現在也知道
내가 정말 잘못했어요 정말 미안해요
我真的錯了 真的對不起
그땐 얘기하지 못했죠 너무 어리석었죠
那時後沒有說 我很蠢吧
이제 와서 이렇게 애태우며 난 용서를 빌어요
因為到了現在我才這樣焦急的乞求原諒
당신은 나는 바보입니다
你⋯ 我是個笨蛋
자존심 때문에
因為那自尊心
술과 쓴 담배연기로 망가지고 있죠
藉著菸酒讓自己墮落
당신은 나는 바보입니다
你⋯ 我是個笨蛋
아직 사랑하기에 하루 종일 펑펑 울고만 있죠
至今依然愛著 只是整日哭泣
그대도 나도 모두 바보처럼
你和我全都像個笨蛋一樣
그러지 말아요 다시 생각해봐요
不要那樣 再次考慮看看
우리 어떻게 여기까지 힘들게 왔는데
我們是怎樣艱辛才能撐到現在
다시 생각해봐요 후회하실 거에요
再次考慮看看 會後悔吧
내가 정말 잘못했어요 정말 미안해요
我真的錯了 真的對不起

至今依然愛著 只是整日哭泣
그대도 나도 모두 바보처럼
你和我全都像個笨蛋一樣
그대 없이 단 한 순간도 난 살 수 없어요
沒有你 我一瞬間也無法活下去
머릴 잘라도 술을 마셔도 눈물만 흐르죠
剪了頭髮 也喝了酒 我仍然流淚
당신은 나는 바보입니다
你⋯ 我是個笨蛋
자존심 때문에
因為那自尊心
술과 쓴 담배연기로 망가지고 있죠
藉著菸酒讓自己墮落

Why did I say that? Stress...yup! I'm so tired...and now I am still need to compile the stupid AOP presentation slides and the proposal hardcopy for approval.
Thought that no need to do the stupid thingy but...so unlucky kena due to my team score the highest among the cohort. Thats why...I rather scored low than required to sacrified my time on doing this. Worst of all, next week...I got boat training, duty, ROR exam and seamanship. Alot of stupid things going on. I dunno how am i going to pass through the week...I wish for the strength for the boat training, the wisdom to take my ROR exam, the energy and the alertness for doing the duty.
However, the worst of all...she is coming back on the 1st Nov. I really want to meet her... but such a busy schedule, I also dunno how to find the time to meet her. I pray for safety to come back and hope that i could find sometime to ask her out for a movie or so...
Now...all i need is to go back to digest the 3 more proposals from the other teams...i think tonight still cannot sleep liao....

Get to know yourself better
Your view on yourself:
You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.
(Well...true enough that usually i will really listen both parties before making any comment.)
The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:
You are a true romantic. When you are in love, you will do anything and everything to keep your love true.
(hmm...really? Haha...i dunno...can anyone verify for me?)
Your readiness to commit to a relationship:
You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person.
(Err...I'm not sure...but if i have chance...i will...:P)
The seriousness of your love:
Your have very sensible tactics when approaching the opposite sex. In many ways people find your straightforwardness attractive, so you will find yourself with plenty of dates.
(I'm stun...I'm a boring person...i dunno i have such a good tactics...)
Your views on education:
Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.
(Yup...this is correct...I want to learn more things...before go...)
The right job for you:
You have plenty of dream jobs but have little chance of doing any of them if you don't focus on something in particular. You need to choose something and go for it to be happy and achieve success.
(ah..ha...thats right...now thinking for new dream job)
How do you view success:
You are afraid of failure and scared to have a go at the career you would like to have in case you don't succeed. Don't give up when you haven't yet even started! Be courageous.
(Thats really true...)
What are you most afraid of:
You are concerned about your image and the way others see you. This means that you try very hard to be accepted by other people. It's time for you to believe in who you are, not what you wear.
(Another hit...i think i should start changing myself...)
Who is your true self:
You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve.
(Haha...thats true...well...wat to do...thats my character...)

Advance Firefighting and Damage Control
Recently, Been too busy with my course work and this week currently I'm attending the advance fire-fighting at Civil Defence Acadmy. It is a 3 day course but during this 3 days, it can consider a hardship for me as I need to wear the BA set and go through the Maze whereby it was totally dark and they simulate smoke inside the compartment. My buddy and I have to go through it and it is much tough than 3 years ago I went through the Basic Firefighting.
Beside that, we also gone through the flashover which we are keep inside the container and fire was set. We got to wait till the fire rises up to our top and from there we need to keep ourselves low and spray water to suppress the flames and smoke. It was really unbearable. Really the temperature was damn hot...sweat.
However, on the last day . It was our assessment and we have to fight fire that the instructors have create certain scene of fire and save casualities and I almost faint coz my cyclinder almost used up. From 300 bar till 100 bar of pressure. However, it was conducted at the funace where by it is a buliding that they training real firemen and the building consists alot of compartment, like HDB flat, shop, carpark...etc. Although, it was tough, but the most tough is their ship simulator. It was built due to requirements and that is our last assessment of the day and went through it...everyone was total wet and all of us face were totally tired. However, it is great fun that retrain myself.
After going through the firefighting course, the next 2 day is on damage control. It is conducted as mostly we need to save our own ship if there is a damage and require to control it. This prevent flooding inside the compartment and sinking the ship. Netherless, we still get wet and i really afraid of the coming monday on the assessment coz everyone have to be scene I/C and have to assess the situtation. I dunno whether i can make it or not...so all i have to do is pray that God can give me the knowledge and a calm mind to make right decision and pass this assessment. If not, i going to retake the assessment again...

Love
Well, kinda have the urgh to say about this after someone told me about her problems. As a listener, I dunno how to give good advices as I dun have much relationship happening around me. I know its kinda a funny and I dunno why people tends to find me for advice. Am I a love counseller or what. Feel so stress and pressure coz I dun want to give empty advice that make someone changes her mind set.
However, kinda hurt seeing one and other having problems on love relationship. I dunno how to help them. This really making myself to ponder whether am I really to good enough to enter a relationship. I can't really force myself to cheat someone or even myself. I know that in the upcoming future...i will be having financial difficulties as I will soon become a overseas student. I dunno whether I can stand on to the long distance relationship. This really makes me to think alot whether I should really go after her.
God, I'm praying that you can lead me the way that what i should really do.

For the past whole week, my lecture was all about communication and managnment. I found this programme very good as it really give me alot of things to ponder.
Just like how to be a active listener, and write good communication. Moreover, I also learn to understand my audience as different people have different personalities and using D.I.S.C behaviour. It can easily know what kind of people I am working with.
Beside these, I learn how to set my goals using SMART -> Specific, Measurable, Achieveable, Reality and Time. With these, I am able to grab and work towards my goals. Moreover, I also need to find out what is my driving and restraining force that hinder my goal. With all these, I also need to find out my motivation to aim for my goal. There are alot of things that I have learn. Beside these, I also learn how to adapt changes and even before there is any changes, we need to be observe coz there will be always indication on changes. Fear using came in for the first time when changes came. Once we overcome it, we will sure find our ways.
To me, I know after 3 years. I will be leaving the service. So it is time for me to list our my driving force and restraining force. With that, I can able to tackle the restraining force asap. Moreover, goal that i going to set...must set high even if can't achieve, believe that it won't have must difference is I am going to work extra harder and smarter.
So now all i need to do is to set my goal and pray that i can achieve in the very best.

POC (Petty Officer Course)
Finally start my Petty Officer Course. I am going to train to be a leader to lead men in future. Well...after going thru this week...I can say, I'm too slack in the past and now I am suffering...Urgh, now my whole body is aching.Why? Coz too long never excerise and this few days kena tekan jalat jalat.
Anyway after a week of familarsation, we are bound to speak any foregin language except English. Kind of difficult to change coz most of the time, on board ship we tend to speak in Chinese. If kena caught by SI or any instructors, we sure kena pump or so call do push up.
Life in IMOS is really terrible coz everyday sure got rounds...and no other entertainment. Pretty boring rite? Anyway...we got team building challenge on thu and fri. It is a 2 day event...and we really have alot of "FUN" coz actually my OC thinking was to gel up the whole cohort so punishment was given to whole lot of us. Wat to do...have to LL do loh...
But anyway...still got 11 weeks to go...got to bare with it

Life & Dreams
Well, today went to Hashita's farewell BBQ party as he is leaving Singapore soon to UK for his futher studies. Well, it seems after 3 years alot of us have our own dreams and life to fufill. Like Chee Siew, he been busy with his father's business at China even he got his own work commitment.
Very envy on them that now they can fufill their dreams. Not like me...I just a ordinary person. I want to be abit extordinary. Is it my mindset is not set properly? No...i just afraid...afraid of been losing out to my peers. Life in me seems useless...sometimes I don't even dare to dream of my future. I afraid that I couldn't survive in this world. I in doubt that whether I can really give someone happiness for the rest of her life. I can't make promise.
Thats why I still remains single. Alot of my friends keep on asking why I still single...bah bah bah... coz I am inferior that I can't be a good boyfriend or even a good husband. Thats why I keep my feelings inside and remains as friends. Maybe I too silly...well...its better to be friends as I don't want them to regret.
Well, after all the thoughts...I begin to question myself...am I really good for her? I know that I've have feelings for her...but does she have the feeling towards me?
I really in a dilema coz I have no intention to get married so fast coz by the time 2009. I will be ORD and i will be starting my new career and I might be going overseas to study my culinary skills and by the time i came back I will be around 30 years old. 5 years...will someone willing to wait for me? Thats why i don't want to get attach soon...coz managing a relationship for so long is tough and anything can happen at this long period of time.
Well...right now all I have to do is to concerntrate on my work and put more effort on researching new recipes and new culinary skills. All i need to do is depend on my fate.

POC Here I come
Well...Finally, yesterday receive the news that I can go to my POC course. Thank God! So even yesterday I'm still on leave, I got to rush back to clear and return my stores coz I considered as posting out of the ship.
So on Monday 9/11, I got to report back to the Naval School at change. Anyway there are pros and cons going back to school for training. Got to stay in, not much freedom and still got to march here and there. But after the course, I will get my promotion to 1SG. Yes and that means pay increament...heehee
Anyway, I guess all I need is to pray for smooth progress in the school training. Thanks what I going to hope for.

Akeelah And The Bee
Well, recently just downloaded this movie and watch it. Well...first time heard about spelling bee was during the CHC Emerge Conference this year and witness the power of children spelling different words range from Latin, Greek and ETC...
For those who didn't know what i mean, check out this movie. Its great for the kids to watch and there are alot of inspritation for them.
Here is something that really makes me remember where i watch "Coach Carter". It is a passage that really make me think who do I really fear. Thats Me!
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.

This is the passage that was used in the movie and also the movie "Coach Carter"
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant,gorgeous, talented, fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be?
You are a child of God.
Your playing small does not serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking
so that other people won't feel insecure around you.
We are all meant to shine, as children do.
We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.
It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone.
And as we let our own light shine,
we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear,
our presence automatically liberates others."
a return to love - by marianne williamson
Hope this really give us a second of thoughts in our mind and go and catch this movie.
