i'm back!!!

Photobucket

happy me XD

so the hiatus wasn't that long hehe.

it's a very long story but throughout the 1 week plus i was in camp i was visiting the medic like it was my second home, went to the hospital twice, was forced to spend the night in the medic room once and am finally released because i'm just giving them too much stress =____=

okay, so let me summarize what's it like in NS:

5 a.m. WAKE UP.

move your ass whether you want to or not. the blardy siren would go
NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOWWNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
NNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
EEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWW~~

for like eternity =__=

then SUDDENLY...

AAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH~~~ whatdjdleorufjfheueoedpdoekeu....dunnowhatlalala&ongoingscreechingwtf.

i dunno what he singing!

AND THEN HOR...you will hear a very low voice saying...

sembahyanglah...sebelum anda disembahyangkan...

BAAAAANNNGGGGUUUUUNNNN.....bangun....BANGUN!!

wtf wtf wtf.

my friend got so annoyed she stuffed her shirt into the speaker.


6.20 a.m. gather at padang kawad for senaman.

sometimes if you're lucky you get to do aerobics accompanied by a trance remix version of siti's songs...and if you're unlucky you'll have to kawad...friggin early in the morning. siao wan.

7.30 a.m. breakfast

usually it'll be egg, bread and their ultimate spicy mee goreng that turns your stomach upside down.

not to forget, everyone has to wash their own cups, forks, spoons, plates, bowls, whatever after meal with the oily sponge provided =.=

8.20 a.m. change into class shirt and proceed to another padang kawad to sing our national anthem and the NS theme song.

btw, i still have no idea how to sing the stupid song after 1 whole week.

9.00 a.m. class

they were teaching module 2 when i arrived so it was focusing mainly on character building...i'm too lazy to elaborate on the activities..but i can show you my activity book filled with magic pen drawings (YESH!!thank god no crayon) if you want :D

10.30 a.m. morning tea break

eat biscuit jer.

11 a.m. continue with class

buat havoc dalam kelas.

12.30 p.m. lunch break

again, have to endure their food yang spicy giler.
sometimes they even put chili in the rice okay! SWT.

after that we get to head back to our dorms so i'll usually do my laundry (no dobi or washing machine, must wash own clothes kampung style) and take a quick nap.

2.30 p.m. activity time

they usally slot in random stuffs like team building activities, lessons on kayak and canoes, HIV...etc.

4.30 p.m. tea break

makan biskut lagi.

5.30 p.m. riadah

PJK time! gosh doesn't this remind you of high school LOL. we can either choose to go jogging, play balls, do stunts, pluck grass...whatever as long as we're moving.

in my case, i always choose to move my mouth. so my friends and i would find a shady spot far far away from the teacher so that we can just talk nonsense.

6.30 p.m. dinner time.

eat crazy spicy food that's infested with flies. *throws up*

after that we have to RUSH BACK to our dorm, bathe with god like speed and change out of our uniforms so that we can hand them to the designated dobi that chooses to come before 7.30 every night.

oh ya, and did i mention there's no heater??

you can either choose to bathe from a pool of water filled with drowned insects and dead leaves or alternatively, go into one of the shower stalls and get your poor tired body beaten and pierced by their ice cold mountain water.

oh wait.

let me ask you this interesting question...what colour is water??

white?

blue??

see through??

NNNNOOOOOOOOOOO.

the water here is YELLOW COLOUR ONE KAY!! beat that.

anyways, we usually have alot of free time after dinner so some of us would go to the mamak or kiosk to yumcha and wait while the others sembahyang.
it's also the only time in the day where girls and guys can sort of mingle around without being shouted at or punished.

yes, you get apprehended if you're seen walking alone with the opposite sex.

WALKING ALSO CANNOT KAY. they scared you'll get pregnant walking beside the opposite sex lor.

=______=


9 p.m. taklimat

most of the time we call this the bashing session where the person in charge would either be yelling at the muslims or non-muslims or both nonstop for 2 hours *sien*

11.30 p.m. lights out

but the lil girls will always be happily chatting away until 1 or 2 a.m. so there's no waaay to sleep in peace.

and then the next day we have to wake up kee siao early at 5 again!!

HOW TO NOT FALL SICK??!?

the environment and food is bad enough...not to mention we're totally cut off from the outside world too because all hand sets are confiscated and released only on weekends and all their public phones are either ROSAK or HUNGRY COIN-EATING MACHINES THAT CHARGE 50 CENTS for 30 seconds!!
it was HELL the first few days.

i thank god for all the kind souls i met there.

when you're away from home, surrounded by trees and human-chasing monkeys, deprived of technology, stripped off from all luxuries, thrown into a room shared by 20 others who share different beliefs and practices and forced to survive...it's depressing.

honestly, i never thought that i would adapt so quickly.
i never thought that i would meet friends worth remembering.
i never thought that some of the trainers were actually friendly and thoughtful.
and i never thought that i'd miss them...now that i'm out here.

we were so happy to see each other bong turned into a statue haha xD SWT

then we were so happy to see each other we started swearing nonstop wth

until he had to put on the mask haha swt.


truth to be told, i actually kinda enjoyed myself there (minus all the food + poor facilities + mouldy-scary looking toilets)

so yea...NS is worth remembering :)

and now that i'm back...i've been busy recuperating (i've been sick and bed-ridden for almost a week) and catching up with friends!

Photobucket

the only reason I'm taking up this job is because the pay is SO GOOOOD. (hint: double an average fresh grad's salary)

but i'll be working 6 days a week, 8 hours a day. and if my performance is bad i might get terminated. boohoohoo.
