Drama! Drama! Drama!
It feels like school all over again. Anthon caused problems today. Enough said.
I've become a guitar freak. I can't play well but I want to play as much as I can. MUST BUY A DAMN GUITAR WHEN I GET BACK!! 16 days, the idea of going home seems more realistic.
Tomorrow we're gonna spend the night in the jungle. Pitching tents and all that crap. Pictures is a must and so they will be taken.
We had craft hutan and learned that plants are edible. They're all surprisingly tasty. Had first aid lessons also and, well, it seemed easy enough.
We had a dry run at the obstacle course and it was damn easy. Who knew? Now to grab every point for Alpha.
The blood drive was yesterday and I was supposed to donate...but my blood pressure was too low. As usual. Will explain more on that when I get back. That's all for now, folks, till the next post.

3 Weeks
Received from Navin on the 17th of May, 2009.
For the final time, I am back at everybody's favourite camp. And yes, I'm a lazy fat * boy who just didn't feel like updating his blog when he was back.
(* FAT!? HOW IS HE FAT?)
I promise to update bout everything when I get back. 23 more days, 3 more weeks, 3 more posts through my ghost blogger *. I got my camera so I'll upload them pictures when I get back.
(* Hmm, ghost blogger. I like the sound of that.)
It was nice to be home but it still sucked. Dunno why. So I'm back and well the mood isn't the same.YC might be leaving for form 6. He's not sure and that just got Lester's and my mood screwed. We don't want him to go.
God, I'm almost outta here...it's bittersweet. Right, this is a short one. I need a shower. Till the next post.
P/S: I NEED TO BUY A FREAKIN GUITAR!

M-16 Colt
Received from Navin on the 2nd of May 2009.
Finally the day I was looking so forward to for so long has finally come. M-16 training babeh! I always wondered how it would feel to fire the weapon. 25 5.56 mm rounds, 5 for pratice and 20 for the test. I hope to get the label "sharpshooter".
The parents came last week on Sunday. They met some of my friends, Dzar, Anthon, Deepa and Laureen. Nice to see them. I mean, seriously. Laureen is a Eurasian. I find her damn funny. Example she has a bit of a British accent. I told her, "I'd date you just to hear your voice. She replied, "I don't know if I should be flattered or insulted." She's cool...from KL.
Home, parents, life at KL...it was just so perfect. Then I woke up. I cried. That was the first time I dreamt of home. First time I felt homesick.
On a lighter note, I'm coming back for a short holiday this Friday. Lester and YC, my two partners in crime, are gonna go lepak while Lester is still around. Saturday night...WHOOO!
Shaun completely hates me now and frankly I couldn't care less. I mean hate la, how does it hurt me? Community Service started on Wednesday. My group went for fire fighting at KKB's Fire Fighting Academy. It was quite fun. Going out of the camp in the full military gear was damn fun. People look! I'll be headed to Slim River Hospital.
Random thoughts: I want to buy a good guitar and pick up the talent after I'm done with PLKN. Dzar taught me a bit since his guitar's here. If anything, I'll play acoustic. My blood pressure is still low for some reason. Basketball here is quite racist now =.=
And there's a girl here who looks like Shannon. I'll explain once I come back.

Hold Your Colours
Received from Navin on the 19th of April, 2009.
I'm back to everybody's favourite camp and it's pretty bittersweet. Nice to be back among my National Service friends but at the same time I'm gonna miss hot showers and sleeping in.
The first few days I wasn't feeling myself. I felt like something was missing. I wasn't sure what but whatever it was was affecting me quite badly. I don't think it's homesickness cos it's only been a few days.
I just realised that I've never mentioned the first guy I met here. Lai Yoong Chieh a.k.a Stuart Little. I met this guy on the bus. He's the closest to my home among the guys. He's from Taman Desa. The reason for the name "Stuart Little" is cos he looks like him. He calls me "Taipei 101" for obvious reasons.
I was pretty lucky as he's in the same company as me. Just that he's in the other Alpha dorm. We hang out so much it's like we're a gay couple.....imagine that, it's Navin and Raja all over again.
Oh, I signed up for kayaking. But before you can join the team, you have to go through the vigorous training. Trust me, it's torture. I think I'm the only Indian guy who survived the training and most probably they have to make a muhibah team, so see how la.
Our camp's Open Day is coming up. Parents can come visit the sights and sounds. So there're gonna be performances and I'm planning on joining T.T.S (Tempur Tanpa Senjata). Well at least YC wants me to.
Yesterday night I realised what I was missing so much: my music. When I got back my handphone yesterday night, I put my handsfree kit on and let the drum and bass roll. It put tears in my eyes, no joke.
MUSIC IS LIFE.
By the way, I'm in love with drum and bass. One verse has been playing in my head from a song called "Hold Your Colours" by Pendulum; Must have been a nightmare, please open your eyes.

Bye Again
Well I'm sorry I was just too damn lazy to update the blog. Hmm, typical lazy fat boy. And you'd think National Service did a round on me. Guess again.
Alot has been done. For example, I've been driving the Volvo and me dad ;et me use the Ford the other day. It's damn fun to drive the Ford wei! I mean its soo damn big and people get out of your way.
I hung out with Alveena, Karven, Raja and Ganesh on Friday. Ganesh is Karven's college friend. Went to Lepaq and lepaked then went over to Alveena's house for the craziest game of pool I ever played. Team Malaysia against Team India. Alveena and I were Team India and Karven, Raja and Ganesh made up Team Malaysia. In the end Team Malaysia won... After cheating =P
It feels good to be home but I miss National Service. I'm going back to day. Can't wait...
This is something very funny...
are born adventurers. They like smashing spiders with their bare hands and trying to walk to the bathroom in the middle of the night with the lights out. They would sooner sustain crippling injury than do anything the easy way.
Sagittarians love to entertain their friends, family, and total strangers. This often includes transvesticism. Nearly every Sagittarian was born into the wrong gender.
Sagittarians are loud and have no social graces. They seek to offend. Sagittarians usually have nicknames like Thunderpooper or Vomitus Maximus. Animals and small children love Sagittarians. This is unfortunate since adults usually hate them. However, Sagittarians make excellent circus freaks and vagrants.
Sagittarians use interpretive dance to describe philosophical concepts. Buttons and bumper stickers with rude sayings on them are a trademark of the Sagittarian. They throw food at expensive restaurants and ask lots of questions in the middle of church.
Don't ever bring a Sagittarius home to meet your parents. He or she will tie up your mother and pants your dad. Famous Sagittarians include the Geo Metro.
Sagittarius is always a better Madonna than Madonna. Men can pull off sequins, and women can pull off construction helmets. The Sagittarius is incapable of being unhip.
Pretty... Darn... True =D

I'm Back
Yeah, pretty much everyone is wondering why I'm back.
Well, I had high fever and my blood pressure was dangerously low. The medics thought I had dengue. I got admitted to hospital and I was cleared. But not before getting pierced by god knows how many needles jabbed in to me. Blood samples taken like three times a day and i/v drips twice.
Somehow I don't have a phobia for needles.... future drug addict =P
Feels good to be back. Hot showers, driving, hot showers. It's just a quick post. Any questions on how its like there leave it in the cbox.
