Yes indeed, I'm halfway there.
My last post a week ago, because, well my confinement started a week ago. On Tuesday I was charged and began my 14 day long stay in my unit.
To be honest, it isn't all bad. Sure, the cold water is horrendous to bathe in. Gosh I have no idea why on earth can it be so cold. Perhaps we're near the sea or something but it doesn't sound logical.
Damn, I'm starting to lose my logic in just seven days. *shudders*
But thanks a lot to my supportive friends and family who have been dropping me messages and phone calls.
Some of my unit mates are great as well, giving me a good supply of outside food. Haha.
And I also take back what I said about you, Mr Facebook. Without you, I'll be rotting inside out already. I issue a public apology. =)
I'm watching F.R.I.E.N.D.S over youtube. It helps to burn time and makes me tired enough when I keep laughing. When I'm tired I nap and time seems to go past faster.
With each passing day I build up this mental list of things I wanna do when I come out. Sounds as though I'm in prison (far from it, honestly) but hey, I miss the outside world.
I need
a) basketball and volleyball
b) a good can of creamy Coke.
c) my very own bed, for God's sake!
d) to get away from this place.
7 more days to go! ARGH

The Post which had a Peanut Donut
What do you know, I'm still at home!
Okay today I was once again ready to take my orders and get my confinement. Then my officer decides to give himself a day off and disappears. Confinement delayed, go back home.
Now, it's not as though I want to be stuck in camp, but since it's coming I just want to get it over and done with. After all I have plans and I don't want to keep wasting my time thinking when I'm going to stay in.
Valentine's Day was a mad mad rush from camp. First I planned things out, but then everything threatened to go wrong.
But hey I got a great friend to help me out loads. Thanks Wanqi. Haha. I'm glad you didn't take pictures of me walking around with that "bomb"! =)
Something tells me that my SOL may finally start tomorrow hm.

The Post which is a Thief
Survived yet another week of work to get another huge blow.
After 2 weeks of duty every alternate day, I thought I could get some rest. Next thing I knew my officer says I'm getting charged next week for my traffic accident.
Means to say I will confined for two weeks in camp.
Okay earlier this month I said I'll be prepared mentally but shit, this news came down hard. I've been working my ass off and I deserve a break and now here it comes.
Goodbye civilisation and hello camp food for the rest of February.
The past few days have been quite a see-saw. Bad news and good news coming back and forth like nobody's business.
Everytime I stay back in the office, I visualise what's going on at home and boy do I really miss staying and chilling in my own pad.
Could do with some home cooked food, a soft drink and family company. I think my leaves are calling out to me!

The Post which is Okie
Hell yeah the party was great!
To start it off, Andre had a huge new place. It's just meant for a party! Had the whole works so we didn't have to do much decoration. Bought loads of food (turned out to be waaayyy too much actually) and got ready to rumble.
Honestly, I was a bit scared at first. Nervous perhaps? But hey nothing a shot of alcohol can't cure. Haha =D
The party went fine and when it came to swimming pool time, and it got real high and fun.
Managed to meet a few new pals who are pretty fun to hang out with. All around it was a fun evening and I went home, having a few drinks too many.
It's my first time drinking so much actually. More than usual at least. Felt as though my mind is clear but all my movements were muddled and slowed. o.O
No pictures (argh why is it like that always) and no they aren't up on Facebook either. Shall get them from Audrey's camera soon!
On the other hand, another batch of my friends of STOs in my unit recently ORD-ed. I'm gonna miss 'em T.T haha.
I first knew them when I was a new kid in the block. Felt bloody out of place and I couldn't get along with the other drivers for nuts. They were already there and they showed me around.
Today was their last day in the unit and I went for a duty off so it's my last time seeing them. Just wanna say that you guys will be appreciated!
Other new folks came in too. This recruit came in and he looked real out of place. Trust me, I felt for him.
He looked at me and said, "Sorry Corporal (which is not my rank anyway) but I don't have uniforms." For a tempting moment I wanted to try shouting at him to see if he would be afraid. Just for fun though. Haha. But I didn't.
Time for a new era of LTO I guess.
Tick tock. 9 more months to ORD!

The Post which is Stone Cold
I'm feeling a little lazy to blog.
Basically this week has been tough. Real tough. Loads of work to be done, stayed in every other day. Feeling jaded.
But my efforts were worth it, and with a stroke of good luck, I managed to take Saturday and Sunday off.
I used to take my weekends for granted. It's like, hey weekends are entitled to me! Not anymore. Haha. A peaceful weekend without calls pelting from the office are a rarity well appreciated by me.
Tomorrow is gonna be a fun day. Hehe.

The Post which Booked Your Face
Right up, I guess many of you have found out my terrible secret.
After months of extortion, bribery, peer pressure and physical abuse, I've finally signed on Facebook on Friday!
Okay I was exaggerating about the bit in front, but I did suffer a lot of nagging, which accounts for a lot of mental stress. Haha.
I did it in a moment of madness, I assure you.
I drove back late to camp. It was about 7:40pm and I just missed out a bus home. There was no choice but to wait in the stifling office for the next shuttle bus.
I sat down in front the computer, checking through the same old websites. I gave a huge sigh and I hit the homepage button, thinking it was Google.
FACEBOOK.COM
Holy crap, I'm really bored.
Should I sign up?
*glances around* There's no one looking at me as I plan my hideous crime.
Alright, here goes.
I turn to the computer, and after a few minutes, the evil deed is done and I'm an official Facebook user, months after evasion and hiding.
The words "GETTING STARTED" appeared. It told me to add friends. Then I suddenly woke up in horror.
MY GOSH WHAT HAVE I DONE?!
Jokes aside, I guess I did join up Facebook for a good reason. It's going to be one loooong month even though it's just 28 days. I sense that Facebook, onemanga, Soccernet and ebuddy are going to be close friends.
First up its 7 days duty, from 1st to 14th every alternating day. Today is day one and I'm feeling like crap already.
After that it's 14 days confinement as a punishment for my accident. It starts presumably this month.
21 days not at home. T.T
It feels as though I'm sitting alone a broken wood raft and thrown into the ocean, with all the angry waves and storms crashing around me.
Gonna try to ride it out the best I can!
