i looooove conversations like this because they will always lead to the most bizzare answers.

we were having a little gathering today in 1u's Seoul Garden when suddenly someone mentioned about sharks in Australia and we started investigating how to fight for your life if it attacked you.

the answer was simple,

jab the eye.

hello?? the fella so thick skin how to fight??! the eye is the most vulnerable spot right?

jason: *happily* so if you're being chased by a shark you faster poke the eye right??

me: NO. if it's CHASING you YOU RUN!! jab only when it catches you! =___=

kelvyn: then what about crocodiles? you jab the eye too?

jason and i: YA. same ma! another thick skin fella.

kelvyn: what if it closes it's eyes and bite you???



dot dot dot.




YA HOR.



bryan: then the crocodile very clever lor.

jason: must have did research before it attacked. all the friends kena poke eye ball HAHA.


WTH.


bryan: what if it bites your arm?? how to poke??

kelvyn: USE YOUR FEET.


OMG.


jason: can meh??

kelvyn: make sure you wear sandals so can use your toes ma.


ZOMG.


me: but don't they usually attack your lower torso first? crocodiles not very tall creatures leh.

bryan: what if your hand and feet also can't use???

jason: that only leaves you with the head right??


SUDDENLY... everyone became quiet and started to formulate an answer.



kelvyn: ... you lick the eye balls.




*STUNNED*

that. sounds. SO. WRONG.


jason: OMG.

kelvyn: then the crocodile will think you want to eat him.

bryan: then it will faster run from you right HAHA.



i think the poor crocodile would be traumatized.


omg i just love this people so much la. my life would be incomplete without all our stupid conversations haha. they are my best stress-relief anytime anywhere =) *gives ultramegasuperhugzz*

night fall

it's midnight. the streets are dead.

not a sound in the air.

where are all the roaring engines and constant barkings?
everything is so still it scares me.

the fan and lights are off, it's so quiet that i can hear my grandma's steady breathing right next to me.

i turned and looked at the ceiling, focusing on the long dim lines casted by the street lamps.


nights like this makes me afraid to sleep alone.

i am tired but i can't drift off to sleep. my mind is blank and empty, yet it won't go to rest.
i feel so non-existant that it's as if i've blended into the silence of the night.


i am locked in a cage, there's nothing to distract me...there's no one to turn to.

long hours would pass before i could finally sleep.
but the thin ray of light that comes through my window would cause my eye lids to flutter and i would sigh at the sight of a new dawn.


it's another day.


and fear washes over me...as i know that night would come again.

"WHERE'S YOUR HOUSE??"

huh?

"I'M OUTSIDE NOW!! could you please?"

wth.

"i just need to pass you something."



and now here i sit...staring at a bunch of yellow bananas.



"these will cure your headache", said he. and then he disappeared into the rain again.

i only remember seeing a huge red umbrella and a big white car.

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.

Photobucket

the beautiful scenery outside my dorm.

Photobucket

the nest

Photobucket

my company - Delta

Photobucket

and my buddies in camp...the ones i'm missing really badly now :(

we missed each other so much that one karaoke session wasn't enough.

Photobucket

so we went swimming haha.
actually THEY went swimming. i was busy chit chatting under the shade haha.

Photobucket

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

Photobucket

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

met sue lin and joey so many donkey years after ausmat!!

Photobucket

awww..elwyn and sue lin..so sweeet together ever since ausmat :D

so happy to see all of you again!! *hearts*

this week i have so many people to catch up with and also so many things to settle!!

btw, missy here will be starting work next week... as a Blackberry Ambassador. I get to have my own blackberry for this 3 months!! *glee*

click here if you don't know what's a blackberry =p

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.

gotta go settle my uni applications now, shall update when i have the time! =p
