Highlights of 08

08 flew past in a twinkle of the eye. now, we're on our way to 09 alr! So i just thought i post up the highlights of my 08 life. =D

Jed's time in bystander
It was my first try at biz on a main scale wif my friends. i learnt alot during that period of time and sadly due to sum circumstances i had to withdraw. Not alot of people knew abt it yet. But im still rooting for dan to work hard! Anything u nid come find me dude! =)

Our first most decent photoshoot for Spring 08 Collection!

E410 First Valentine's Day

We never had did had Valentine's Day before till 08. haha all the talk about not getting attached in the subzone den was a fad in the past when it was broken by Jc n ly. hahaha! But yes, this was our first 'grp date' since all of us had no date on tt day. It was funny and.. well... fun i tink? U see, on tt day. We sowed a seed for jc n ly. hahaha! big angbaos for all of us.

Brotherhood birthdays

We did it yearly without fail. but this year was quite bad. u noe.. being late and all. but this grp is the most havoc and crazy people i haf ever met during my poly days. We were all from different courses, different lives linked together by ME! haha, wll, jed's onli haf 24 hrs a day den. He cant possibly give it everybody one by one. So i kinda made all of them know each other. Till den, the fun has never stopped!

Graduation Day!
Finally able to step out of the polytechnic and be free! no more late night projects chionging, only late night supper plus chiongsua in camp -.-".

Jed's First Blood Donation
I was not prepared for this at all. Ly n V kinda decided for me and sign me up. N here i was, donating blood to save lives out there! hahaha. I rmb tt the nurse told me it wun hurt as bad as the drawing blood by the army medic, and when she injected me, i turned my head to look at her. YOU BLUFF ME! hahaha! but after tt day, i grew no fear of needles anymore. N my life wif needles began that day. injections after injections! RWAR!

Jed's pre enlistment to army farewell.


I was emo like hell mths before i enlisted. I guess it was the big unknown tt i was going to jump into and i dun like the idea of a freebird being withheld in a cage. Haha, it was a big hoohaa den for me. And it was really stupid now to look back at it. Army has changed me for the better. N i never regretted it ever since then.



My last happy meal that day =(


Changed?
hahaha, my lovely e410 did this for me. n a awesome raspberry cheese cake!

Jc gave this to me! hahaha, but this little bugger went awol on me. Now im still trying to get him back to charge him!

little things of encouragement. You see, this little things helped me tide thru my 08. So, you all are my encouragers of the yr!

NS!!!!
It was the most fun time of my life during my BMT period at Tekong. I lost the most weight there, and everything there was just really fun. There were alot of tough times, but we emerge stronger everytime we walk out of it. I learnt something. "everything is fun. but play one time can already!"

This is a letter from home by my parents when i was in fieldcamp. The toughest time in my BMT period. We went thru hell just to get this letter from home. Cried like hell that day and made me realised that im very very well loved. Thanks, i love you all too.

POP LO!

Finally out of tekong!

Today the sons of Singapore becomes the protector of their very home.

MY BIRTHDAY!

The main event of the year! hahaha every year is no different. The celebration usually lasted a week and im on leave! Super party times!

My cake by the brotherhood. PARTY AT SENTOSA!

Reunion with an old friend. Im kinda glad it worked out now. I missed the times we fought tgt, n weirdly i missed ur scoldings. You were my leader n my very gd friend then. Well, at least we're moving on! Let's conquer the bigger things in life!

=D

Armour infantry in Sungei Gedong!

Honestly, this is the most siong time of my life. Tekong seems like child's play now. But nevertheless, im learning to conquer the things a step at a time! Know alot of new brothers to go thru this tough time together!

First n second injury in army

Sprained my ankle in camp. Thank God for the long mc to let me recover. I guess during this time, i really had a lot of time to know my cg on a deeper relationship. Really good times, but i wish to recover asap to go back and fight!

Lastly, this is a blog post i wrote very long ago in the yr.

hi all. Shyan's getting better, or so the doctor say. If im not wrong, he's conscious and coughing at the moment. Doc say that coughing is good for him, if i haven heard wrong. By thanks for all your prayers so far. I know some of you guys wanna visit him but couldn't cos im currently taking over the shop till this incident is over or Hong's ready to return. Anyway thanks for all your prayers so far. It's really getting better from what i heard, even though it's slow, but it's improving. Thank God for that. =)

here sth's from Hong to you peeps,"Anyway... Really thanks... I don't know how to thank you for helping me and praying for my brother. When times (that) im in a bad mood, (and) pick on (minor) things to throw my tantrum at ya, now u didn't even hold that at heart and came and help me without a single question. Really sincerely thank u. also to derrick and dan. Thank you all (everybody who prayed for shyan)

It was the miracle of the year for ly, v n me. we were dumbfounded rly. Shyan was dying that day, his life clings on by a life support machine den. We didn't know wad to do, except to pray and pray and pray for him. We went to prayed for him. and that day in the hospital, God was with us during one of the prayers. n now. He's well and as joyful as ever. Thank you all for ur prayers, tt day. e410 experienced a miracle together. who says it's impossible now? With God, we managed to do an impossible task!

So it's finally hitting 09! can u sense it? there's more to come! more miracles, more fun! so continue to take the walk with me!

Congee Day

this has by far been my.. i dunno.. eating congee in public looks weird.

At least it's crystal jade's. hahaha!

n now i got diarrhoea too. Think is the new medicine im on.

Leonard n Kel

Marsh: "the congee is like my mum's!"

Jed: "wow. ur mum can cook.. unlike mine.." no la joking la mummy urs awesome!

Eating Congee because of her.
Now im having diarrhoea too!!!!

5:22am

that's why they say there is a time and season for everything. Once u miss it, it's gone.


that's wad happened to me too many times. Like now. i was supposed to blog about something but after a few matches of dota. I totally forgotten wad the content was.


all i rly recall is

this is actually paul smith designs inspired by classic Shakespeare characters: Yorick (Hamlet), Oberon (A Midsummer Night’s Dream), and Mercutio (Romeo and Juliet).

I love wad the artist done with this designs. Always a sucker when it comes to mixing designs with history or even literature in this sense.

Unfortunately, that's all i rmb. Another is about euthanasia. But i will try to work on that n bring out a decent post. till den!

Xmas!

that time of the year again isn't it? Not so much fun this yr, crappy xmas eve dinner wif instant noodles. let's just say last min planning sucks. LOL. Anyway let's make merry ppl!

this is wat i have been doing for the past few wks wif an alien ankle.

Thanks for the cookies gal!

heh. she's like our big sister. just tt she's WAYYYYY younger.

the 'unholy union'hahahahahaha!

Anyway thanks alot for all the well wishes and presents! NOW THE COUNTDOWN TO 09!

JUST A BIG HOOHAAA HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO KELVIN KING & MARSHALL ANG!

YAY! heh marshall no hard feelings for all my dissing ya! too mani ppl are asking wad is wrong wif us. But that is how we communicate wat. I will always rmb the times u jio me out for meal in sk.

HAPPY TIME!

p.s. trying very hard to earn my place in ur bdae bash. heh heh heh

Anyway im just very intrigued by the recent events lately. I have donated like.. i haf no idea how much also. to ex convicts selling stuff, sell tissue uncle, begging auntie, uncle tt eat our leftovers. Wow, bedok is a wonderful place. For me, im always willing to gif to the elderly, esp if they are willing to humble themselves to sell tissue just to make a living to eat and all. Esp the uncle who ate our leftovers, im so.. really impacted by the scene of how the living standards and the bad economy of Singapore has pushed some of the underprivileged to roam around the streets, eating leftovers. I have never imagine myself to see this again after seeing a mother trying to feed her infant by finding food in the rubbish bins in Shenzhen.

But there's a downside to everything. Alot of people actually make use of the public sympathy to earn a living, like forcing their elderly parents to sell tissue while they manage at the back scene. Heard about this story tt the son force his mum to sell tissues and could only return home after selling it. Where have the values of such people went to? No matter wad ur parents done to u, there is no way you could treat them like that, on one very record that they brought you to the world. It's very disheartening to hear that. Moreover my recent encounter with an ex convict trying to sell me a keychain for 10 bucks. I refused politely at first and den he wanted to sell me pens for 4 bucks. I actually do sympathise them but sometimes i do wish that they could be able to work wif wat they haf instead of using their past to earn a living. Moreover, i find most of them polite bt the one yst was really pushing himself on me. His antics of trying to sell me his stuff is just very pushy that i as a marketing student has seen thru very well. It really make me very reluctant to ever purchase any stuff from such people ever again.

I have said so much, but i know tt i know tt i know when i lend and give upon to the poor, i lending to the Lord. sometimes no matter wad people say about giving them money or purchasing their products, i always feel that as long as God sees it. It doesn't really matter whether they're out to cheat me or not. As long as my purpose is right, the fault will not be upon me. So sometimes, i just feel there's no need to make a big fuss abt things like that esp wif the ex convict incident.

I feel gd now~

you lack integrity.

you weren't like that in the past.

Recall. for the times when He came true for you.

Went to see the specialist for my injury yesterday.

I honestly thought it was just a routine check up and i was really concerned about healing fast enough to get back to training (and losing some weight!)

At the end he actually gave me another 2 wks of mc, plus 4 wks of sai kang duty(unfit for duty).

And my camp doctor gave me an additional 2 wks of not using my legs.

Turns out i wun be returning to camp till next yr!

Now im rly concerned over some stuff.

1. MAINTAIN MY CURRENT WEIGHT OR LOSE MORE!

im anoxeric lately. but i failed. and im quite worried abt the fact tt i cant run wif tis leg. which is quite impt. dun wanna stop the momentum!

2. im so screwed for xmas

i haven got any presents. And it's too late to get stuff from overseas too. But turn out i will be spending my xmas outside nicely!

Well, to end off soon so i can head on to DOTA(tt's wat i've been doing ever since im on mc). Just wanna thank you guys for the prayers and concern. I mean it's quite amazing how i always limp n hop on the first day and walk normally on the 2nd day. Nobody in my coy believed i injured my ankle. Think i rly put on a good show! ouch* Think im used to the discomfort which is not good cos im more used to being fine and leaping off from platforms. Hope to conquer soc pretty soon!
