♥ 6:11 PM
lol just realised i havent been blogging for the last two weeks. army has been the usual - its stupid.
went for my second driving lesson last friday! lol quite exciting. i actually got my PDL already so i can drive on the roads, so my instructor said i could drive around sengkang. we were driving around the anchorvale area, and we actually drove past my house as well haha. FUN. some roads there were more cars, some there were less. anchorvale area there has almost zero cars, coz like its quite ulu. not the built up area, the area around anchorvale CC. talk about the CC, it looks very nice! from the outside it looks as if there are many facilities inside available for use.. and its so near my house (: there were four tall towers of flood lights, so ya i think there should be a track too? im not sure, didnt really see that clearly. but if there's a track and field then it would be some marvelous CC. WOOT.
Out of all the driving lessons that i've had, nothing has been really a problem except the part where i engage the first gear and slowly move off. the moving off part has been really giving me a problem. 90% of the time my car just keeps jerking when it moves off.. sometimes very bad, sometimes not that bad. the control of the accel for me isn't really perfect yet. frigging hell, and its like sort of the most important part of driving. i asked my friends in camp and they said its normal to have that kinda problem coz they had it too. but argh i wanna get rid of it as fast as possible. if i keep this up how do i get my driving license as quick as possible ><
these few weeks in camp made me realise how long i haven't been playing pool. was running around the track yesterday, and after running we actually walked past the enlistee's corner of 4SAB. its not my unit, but i went in to ask if it was an all rank mess, so ya the guy inside playing pool said yes. once i saw the pool table i so felt like playing pool.. so i was thinking maybe can just wear the normal admin shirt, then although not my unit's mess just come in and play LOL. i told my friend that he said ok la maybe we come next time. HURRAY. i mean ok la my unit has a mess but then it has a rule that says an officer must be with u in order to use the mess =.= i dont know what kind of rule is that, but rules are rules right =/
and woot, looking forward to this weekend where we're all gonna play tennis and other sports in school! so yeahhh its gonna be fun. haha 2 weeks ago we were trying out tennis and we kinda got the hang of it, so maybe this time we'll play at a faster pace or something. haha.
oh! that reminds me. i went to see rae off on the day she left, and WOW was the place posh. her farewell was held at a place called jetquay. its at changi airport, and i bet most of you all dont even know such a place existed. i didn't until i went there lol. the slogan for it was "a dunno what for the elite" or something. forgot exactly what it said, but its called the CIP terminal as well, which stands for commercially important people. the whole place was so posh, there were huge comfortable sofas, and a counter which serves u juice, coffee and even alcohol if you'd like. like WOW. i met rae's parents and told them the place was very posh, they just laughed it off lol. haha.. ah well all the best to rae and her studies! i went to search up on edinburgh and i realised its the capital of scotland lol. and edinburgh Uni is actually quite renowned in the country, not to mention higher in rankings than a few ivy league unis.
hmm alright think i'll sign off here.. totally looking forward to the weekend!
round and round we go...
