Kranji St John - Exclusives!

2010-12-14T09:03:00.004+08:00

As the year 2010 comes to an end, I look back at the achievement of the Corps and did sort of a mini evaluation.

On the outlook, the Corps seems to be doing fine, with pretty good achievements in the major events of the year; FAC, YOG, etc. I shan't go into the details, cos this is not meant to be a "sum-up" posting.

Plus, of course, not forgetting the fact that many of us out there actually got attached from cadets to officers, SNCOs... Wow. 2010 is definitely a 'BOOMz' year for all most of us! Wahahaha.

Our morale as cadets also sort of increased, I feel. In my personal opinion, I think the "cracks" between us is not that obvious anymore.. The guys are getting closer, i mean, increasingly "brotherly", which is a good thing. I hope the good habits will rub off between the guys. I suppose when the group is small, it's kinda easier to mix around and really get to know each other well.

Well, also improved is the relationship between the girls. Gaps are not as wide now, I think. At least they bother to talk a little more to each other.

That's the way it should be and I hope will be, in the many days to come.

May 2011 be a good year ahead for the KSJ family.

2011, the year of the underdogs leading the way, officially begins in 18 days' time.

Split Ends

2010-02-11T08:57:00.003+08:00

1st post 4 e yr

I hate it. Split ends.

"Split ends, or as the hair experts call it, trichoptilosis, is a common problem for many people. Split ends occur when the protective cuticle is destroyed at the end of the hair. The hair will then split into two or more strands. Some people claim that the split can be repaired, but the experts know that this is a myth. Once the damage has occurred, the best way to deal with it is by using a pair of scissors."

http://www.wisegeek.com/what-are-split-ends.htm

Same goes for many things. If a strand of hair that is born out of the same root, why does it split in the end?

The base has been built, so why bother to split it in the end?

How can we work together to build a better home? How can we work together to build a better Corps? What else, can be done?

2010-02-07T00:19:00.004+08:00

A new year marks the new beginning.

Thanks for keeping it a mystery. Certain things in life, are not meant to be revealed. Like the writers of this blog.

From the next blog post onwards, the new guys will take over. Password will be changed and we will no longer log on, may the mystery live on!

KSJ Rocks, or are we on the rocks? Only time will give u the answer.

2009-12-09T13:53:00.004+08:00

Hell is over!

Finally, end of camp le. The camp wasn't as tough as I thought it out to be. But it was very tiring. I participated in so many triages until I also lost count of how many triages I did le. Keep on doing and doing. Sir Shen Yang keep on scolding and scolding.

The most suay thing is that I always kena first aider de post de! And I always must go and carry people! Why! why people always get carried and I must carry other people! Sian. But Chor Kiat power lei. I see him carry a girl alone sia! Like you know, how a bridegroom would carry his bride! Lol.

There's even one part I heard him shouting over the walkie-talkie "Then ask him to go and die!" I oso dunno who he asked to go and die. Haha. But really pissed off, cos he scold CSM and ACSM and everybody. Stupid Sir. Got nothing to do come and scold us!

Sir Choon Siong a bit more better. He don't talk de. haha. But when he talks, normally is scolding people la. Sian.

Sir Kenneth lei, I think this year he quite free. Should be not holding any post ba. Cos he quite free. Never talked to us also. Only during Triage come out and make noise. =P

Oh ya. This year de camp hor, we walked lei!

You must be thinking I must be crazy, walk only what!

But the difference is in the amount of distance we walked! From Bukit dunno what to some stupid reservoir. I think is Macritchie ba. Cos I only noe one reservoir =P haha. Cannot blame ma. I only so young. Dunno much places. Not like the old old de officers. hehe.

Holiday start le lo! The days with nothing to do really very bored. Tried to find something to do, but I really cannot find anything to do lei. Maybe I'll work at Macdonald's ba. Heard my friends got some friends working there, can get them to help.

Coming back to the camp, the Passing Out Ceremony was quite touching lo. See all the seniors cry. The CSM go up also cry. See liao I oso wanna cry. But overall camp was fun though it was tiring.

I'M GOING TO WAKE UP YOUR IDEA

2009-05-26T09:57:00.005+08:00

Think the Economy's Really bad, Everyone's like trying to touch the statue which seems to be bringing alot of ppl good luck..

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After being inactive for coming close to one year, I decide to make a comeback.

I will be here to make noise. I realised our juniors are losing their drive and passion for KSJ.

It's kinda sad cos a few of them, even those who used to be "siao on" is no longer performing up to the usual standards. I looked at the sec 4 seniors' rehearsal for the POP parade, I really worry that if we screw it up during the actual day, we'll surely make a fool out of ourselves.

Are we really going to become a unit whereby we're only Gold on paper?

Are we really going down the drain? I'm afraid we are. Looking at us, sec 3s, it really sucks to be with them. They don't put in their best to do their stuffs and I HATE it. I wanna chiong for KSJ, but the rest are not co-operating with me.

I DUNNO HOW LONG I CAN HANG ON WITHOUT BLASTING THOSE IDIOTS.

There's no way I can put in my best without the co-operation of my fellow people.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Oh yes, did I mention that there is a Ang Moh Sec 1 cadet? Hehe. Not bad-looking. ;P

2008-06-29T22:11:00.002+08:00

Today Ms Tan said there are 15 ppl who didn't turn up for the training...

I was so shocked. Cos yesterday night although it's cultural fiesta night, I think still not too bad ma.

Sir Shen Yang stopped us in the middle of the training at about 10 o'clock like that just to talk to us about some values that we should have as a st john cadet.

I think it's quite true la. Discipline, actions, behaviour, everything all comes under one roof.

If you come to think about it, yes, we did return home late last night, maybe about 10.30 latest then reach home ba, but even if there's no cultural fiesta night the day before, do we even sleep earlier than 12? even if we return late, as long as we sleep as fast as possible, we can still get at least about 6 to 7 hrs of sleep, which I think should be enough, becos sometimes even during school days we dun even get to slp that long.

The training wasn't also very early ma. I personally thought the training should be able to make it de.

But anyway, for those whom missed the training today, in the morning we did some first aid by Sir Choon Kiat, then after that we had footdrill by Sir Shen Yang.

Whoa, his footdrill lesson was really a killer. But I think he also a bit mixed up when doing some demonstration. Very funny. hehe. then teached us the turning while marching de. The Kiri Pusing command land on the right leg and the Kanan Pusing Command land on the left leg.

The timing is same for both, it's only "Check, Bang!"

Quite tough in the beginning, but after that still got used to it and finally we did it.

Then we revised on the di-sebelah and the tukar harluan and other commands. All quite easy la. not much of a stress. After lunch we sat down and talked to the sec ones got to know them better. haha. only 4, so quite easy to rmb. Sir Shen Yang want us to rmb their name and their birthday, so on so forth. hehe. Then after that, we did some footdrill again.

Sir Shen Yang is actually very patient with us, I realised.

But he seems quite disappointed in our turn-up rate. So we actually feel quite bad.

then Ms Tan said she wanna scold those who absent themselves without reason. I dunno la. Really feel bad. Hai~

Way to go for CAA Gold!

2008-04-13T17:24:00.004+08:00

Our long awaited Gold
Andy Lau!

The new year kicked started with a New Year Celebration as usual... blah blah blah...

**Poomph**

It's already April!

Training every week is getting monotonous. The Sec Ones are forever doing some new each wk (because they have to, they are new ma!). So like what Sir Shen Yang always say, "Suck thumb lo"

Then the rest of us would be doing our usual round-robin routine, "First Aid, Foot Drill, Home Nursing" We are so used to this cycle liao.... A bit sian lei... Can we do something different? haha.

I doubt so. With the competition just less than 8 wks down the road, we have to work harder. Somemore this year I heard we got Gold. And yes, we finally got Gold for CAA, we'll have to work doubly hard for this year in order to get CAA Gold again for next year.

Getting is not a goal. It's just a pit-stop. What matters is what u do after getting Gold.

Oh yes, just something lighter, i just watched a movie, not bad. Here's the poster.

Christmas is coming!

2007-11-25T18:36:00.000+08:00

Ho! ho! ho!

Exams over! finally can take a break from studying and stopping looking into the never-ending stack of notes and boring textbooks. I'm so happy!

Haha. and Christmas is just round the corner! Yeah! I wish we could have a Christmas celebration for the KSJ Family, man. It's so fun when we celebrated it at Christine's house last time, all the officers and seniors would gather and exchange gifts and so much food!!!!!

haha. Dunno whether there'll be one this year or not. hehe. See how la huh. ok la, got to go mapling le! yeah! Up! up! up! Level up! haha.

Breaking Point

2007-09-20T10:30:00.000+08:00

Life is like a taut rope, with each ends tied to a mountain.

Every responsibility you assume will be like hanging additional weights on it.

As we grow older, the number of weights also increases with time.

Each challenge we face in life is like a strong wind blowing at the rope, which was already so bogged down with weights.

As each gusts of the wind blows stronger, the weights seem heavier than before.

Some weights might drop because we can't hold on to it anymore. That's when u see people giving up their various positions. Like maybe they will not want to be a class chairman, they don't want to be in any clubs or societies anymore, or they don't want to remain as an officer in SJ anymore.

Eventually, the rope will wear off and one day, snap.

Everything that hangs on it will drop down into the valley below, shattering into pieces.

Life is cruel.

If you're not even going to help yourself, then no one can help you.

So I've always believed in not giving up in whatever we do.

As the exams are just round the corner, I hope no one is even near our breaking points just yet.

Yes, this period might be tough, but we'll never give up. If we've survived all the way from primary school till now, going through tests after tests, there's pretty much nothing that we cannot overcome.

To all KSJ peers and Kranjians, all the best for your exams.

Spider man hits town. My blog, rather.

2007-09-18T22:14:00.000+08:00

wow, wow, wow. I thought Spiderman was here before this. How come there's spider web all over this blog?!

Note to the other blogger: Hey! having exams doesn't mean u can put down ur passion for KSJ and dun update this blog ok?!

What the hell. I entrusted u with the ultimate important responsibility of updating and maintaining this blog and u left it abandoned. hai~

I think it's better to take things into my own hand. haha. Ok, Sept holiday is over and it's time to wake up and chiong for school work already!

The last SJAB training seemed so long ago, even though it's just a few wks away.

Times in school really flies and it's the end of the year already. I still remember Sir Shen Yang talking about his Corps Standing Orders at the start of the year, freaking out everybody.

and now?! he's in the army and it's already Sept le! haha

October will be coming in a few wks' time and it also signifies, more or less, the beginning of our torture. (exam period)

prelims, O levels, EOY exams.

Everything seems so big and tough. but i shall not give up!

Every member of the KSJ family will jia you and not give up de, ok?!

GO GO GO!!!

We'll all get A1! (or at least, try for a C6 la)

i've told mum already. I will not fail any subjects le. I must jia you and work hard. I don't want to see my O level results having a "Fail" grade in any of the subjects. i know it's going to be tough, but I'm not going to let my present situation bog me down!

EOY, Prelims, O Levels!

HERE I COME!!!!!!

Archery

2007-07-26T00:20:00.000+08:00

Yuppie! I am finally back. Too much homework(includes holiday homework :P) to hand in. I hate Maths, full stop.

Archery is sooooooooooooo fun. Geez! I dont know that archery was actually so fun de. There were two sessions for us. The first lesson was introduction to archery. Then we also learn how to set up the bow. I dont know that the bow is actually divided into two. I always thought that it is one big piece, like the one Legolas holds. hehe. We also have the hand guard, the finger guard. The instructor kept on talking. Talking. He dont feel thirsty de. :X After talking so much, we finally get to fire the arrow. Now i know why we need the handguard le. So painful lor! Piack! The string hit my hand. Lucky no contusion.

Then we have the second session the next week. We were there early. So we have more time to shoot. Yippie! I almost forget how to set up the bow. Then we have a small competition. I only can get ** out of 120. The others can get so high marks. Me really very lousy. Dunno we still can come archery anot. Heard from the seniors only can come once then no more le. Hai~ If only we can come again.

Recently got training on 21 July. We have PT(Physical Training) by Sir Kenneth. Sir Kenneth lei.. I didnt know he can run. :X Not that I xiao kan him, but he really run very fast. Run from music room to AVA room staircase, then run up to third floor again. Then we run down to second floor using the computer lab staircase, then run to the hall and run one around. Then we run down to the first floor, then we finally ended at the D&T block. Phew! I feel so tired after the run. Then Sir Kenneth say this is only warm up. We during PE also never run like this.
Then we did stretching. Sir Kenneth really can stretch. OMG! He say his friends can stretch until their body touch the floor. So scary lei!

"One, Two, Three, Four, Two, Two, Three, Four!" We keep shouting and shouting. We form two two rows along the corridoor. We were told to find a partner and form a pair. Sir Kenneth say must find same weight, same height, same size de. Then he demunstrate(spell correct?) how to lift Sergeant Hong Lip. OMG! He lifted him like King Kong lift the girl. AND, HE RAN CARRYING ANOTHER PERSON! Sir Kenneth MY IDOL!

hehe. Got too carried away. Actually dont feel like doing de, but Sir Kenneth keep forcing us to do. So no choice. We carried each other and run. I dont know carry people run around also so fun de. I see the seniors carry each other, then smiling. How can we juniors lose out. So I try very hard to follow. Yuppie! I manage to carry my partner. I feel so happy when i reach the green door. Now i know why the seniors so happy. When you manage to finish something after trying your best, you will feel very happy de! Dont know how to say lei. But it is like there is a monster in your brain telling you to give up, so when you tell yourself never to give up, you will feel like you kill the monster le.

We were taught how to play the animal game. We need to move around like three animals. I only remember one is lizard. We crawl on the floor using same hand same leg. Dont know how to do. Looks so ugly! Then we also do another two, but forget what name le. Then we go parade square play some game. We have to find a partner then hit each other leg. Seriously, i dont enjoy the game. Very painful lei! So i just walk around and play Hi 5. hehe.

Exclusive! Heard from the senior senior senior that Sir Shen Yang will be coming back from army on 27 July. Yippie! That means we can see him on 28 July training le. I want to see his botak head. Dont know will shine anot. hehe.

This saturday heard is NDP rehearsal. Hope I wont fall out! Aiye! Still need to hand in walkaton card. Now only got one digit. But Ma'am Ai Suan say must have $80. OMG! I must faster ask my classmates to donate. Those reading this, can donate to me. $10 can le.

Now let me end off in KSJ tradition(or is it the officers tradition). KSJ Huat Ar!

GST to 7%! While CF Night down by 2% to CF Day!

2007-07-01T17:28:00.000+08:00

Wow! *Dust Dust Dust*

Is this blog collecting dust or what.

*Note to the other writer* Please blog more often, nowadays I very busy cannot blog that much liao. haha.

It's the 1st of July and it's the topic that's the talk of the town. Yes. It's the GST hike. 7% liao lei! Wa lao~

Go and photostat papers also will have to pay the increase lo. If it was still 5%, I only have to pay $2. Now I have to pay $2.20!

WTH! Then I ask the auntie, why so expensive?! If you do the maths, it will only be about $2.05 only lor... I think auntie press calculator press wrongly la. $2.20 is 10% increase lei!

Auntie! I SUE you ah!

haha. But then again, it's 15 cents difference lei. If one day got about 100 innocent people like me kana cheated ah, one month she can make an extra $450 more lei~! What the hell..

I swear I will not go back to that store again. haha.

But then again, is the 7% GST beneficial towards the auntie or the general public. haha.

Anyway, the Kranji Cultural Fiesta is quite a good one la. Cos KSJ is once again living up to its name, for the Service of Mankind. haha. Ok, we did Public Duty lo. So bored. Nobody really got hurt. haha.

Then again, no news is good news la. haha. =P

*Anyway, Pictures with courtesy from May. hehe.

Passing Out Parade 2007

2007-06-21T19:54:00.000+08:00

It's the much anticipated event for the year.

It's POP 2007!

The Sec Four seniors are graduating. haha. The Sec threes will take over lo! hehe.

Handing over de stuffs more or less done le ba. Otherwise, will have to learn as we do the work lo. no choice. The matter of being able to learn all the stuffs before you can take over doesn't happen all the time. Sometimes we just learn as we do.

Make mistakes, then learn from it. But the step missing in between would be "make mistakes, KENA SCOLDING, then learn from it" haha. of course when we do something wrong, would get scolded for sure. But more importantly, dun let the scolding stop you from learning.

Sometimes people just get too caught up with being scolded and feeling damn "buey song" or rather, "not happy". Then they don't learn from their mistakes, because all they do is grumble and feel bad. Then they will give up. Then they will commit the same mistake. Hai~

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ey! Hello, hello. It's supposed to be about POP 2007, right. haha.

Ok, here's a big THANK YOU! to all our seniors; all that they have done for KSJ, be it in the past, present or in the future, I believe everyone is very grateful to them for everything that they have done for us. A round of applause... *CLAP *CLAP *CLAP *CLAP.

Dun worry, seniors. You can leave KSJ to us. =D *Ok, I was just joking*

Please come back as officer to help us out, ok? Them hope the principal can give us more cadets, please...

We're seriously lacking of people in the Corps. Not that we are desperate or what, but we really cannot function with only a small Corps. With the number of people graduating more than the number of people coming in, there's really a major decrease in the numbers lo.

I think I heard from the senior's seniors (aka officers) that Ma'am Ai Suan and Sir Choon Kiat's batch (by the way, they belong to the same batch) got about 30 people joining lei! Wa Sei... about 3 times as much as the intake this year lei... Hai~ what to do...

Please dun screw up this Saturday's POP, ok? So the principal can see that we are actually making progress, then she can give us more people. Or maybe Mr Kong can see how good we are, then can have more people to join us in the Corps next year.

Otherwise, next time we cannot even form enough teams to take part in any competitions organised by the Zone or at the National Level.

Jia You! KSJ Jia You! Go~! Go~! Go~!

CHIONG AH~~~!!!!!

Sin-Mal FAC 2007~!

2007-06-17T02:19:00.000+08:00

Wow! I heard our CSM, Ms Chua Simin's team won the best NC Team in the Sing-Ma FAC 2007 lei! I think you must be like the BEST of the BEST to be there one lo. Afterall, you're representing ur country lei!!!

Wa Sei! Not bad ah. Who would have thought that the team member from the team that represented Singapore would be from our School! KSJ Rocks! Whoo-Hoo!

So happy sia. haha. Then also the Nursing Adult also got win lei! Singapore win all the nursing teams! haha. But Singapore's AC Team all lost to the Malaysia team one lo. haha.

I Kay-poh, so went to the SJAB Malaysia website to check lo.
haha. The HQ Website. So much better than the Singapore's website one lo (Oops, did I say they are better?)

Interested can go and look up their website:
http://www.sjam.org.my/

Their uniform also... very different from ours one lo. haha. The guys' beret look like Songkok like that. Then the Girls' beret really look like last-time de nurse de lei!

Then also got alot lo. Their girls wear pants one lei! So good. More convenient in moving around. Not like the girls in Singapore, wear skirt one. haha.

Cause for double joy!

2007-06-04T21:49:00.000+08:00

"Kranji!" "Kranji!" "Kranji!" "Kranji!" "Kranji!" "Kranji!" "Kranji!" "Kranji!" "Kranji!" "Kranji!" "Kranji!" "Kranji!" "Kranji!" "Kranji!" "Kranji!" "Kranji!" "Kranji!" "Kranji!" "Kranji!" "Kranji!"

"Aiya, mum! you won't understand de la. You should have been there to feel the whole contingent of cadets there. haha.

Got one NC team got pretty girl lei. haha. eyes big big damn Ke Ai. haha. so many guys all looking at her lo. like no mood for competition like dat. =P

Ok. so when the results were announced, can hear like almost all the Kranji de team like all got win something lei. haha. so happy.

then on the way back, Sir Shen Yang announced that the AC team got improve alot. he said like "I'm very proud of my AC team, because they didn't have any error for their footdrill sequence"

then the whole bus was like "Whoo~!!" *Clap clap clap* haha.

Whoa~ I'm going to work hard. Continue to strive for 1st place! Then also the Corps Achievement Award we want to get GOLD! Show the school that we can do it! haha.

I'm sure we'll do as well. (or better) haha.

I love KSJ!

Oh yes, by the way... I think one of our officer and SNCO just got attached. haha. Congrats! =P

Hello? Anybody there?

2007-06-01T12:12:00.000+08:00

I’m so bored today… you know… like…

Bored. Really. I wished I had SJ training, at least I won’t be so bored and cooped up at home. Tuition stopped for a few days. Mum say will resume once the tutor’s back from her trip to M’sia. =X

Holidays & Tuition dun jive, mum. Dun be so kiasu lei… my friends’ mother also didn’t force them so much. Whoa. Can die. Damn tired lei. Actually not tired la. Is sian lo. Sit at home do nothing but blog blog blog. Haha.

It’s like that one la. Not like erm... you know who la. SJ got so many rumours. Sure got some is true de ma. Haha. Just like the Chinese saying “Without wind, there’ll not be waves.” Haha. Dunno whether correct anot. But anyway…

I was so bored that I discovered this website;

http://www.urban75.org/useless/bored.html#top

It’s a useless website which teaches you how to do irritating things when you’re bored. Haha. Check it out!

**BTW, nobody’s commenting on this website anymore. So I dunno whether still got people visit this website anot. Haha.

But I’ll still continue writing no matter what. Not giving up is the Kranji SJ Spirit! Hehe.

Happy Birthday to me!!!!!!!

2007-05-31T20:04:00.000+08:00

It's my brithday!!!!!! Yeah!!! Good good. Had a simple celebration and... 18 candles! haha.

A bit too old le ba... so many candles. Dad put wrongly. haha.

Fire! Fire!

2007-05-28T14:11:00.000+08:00

Laying the "Victim on the improvised stretcher" (Pics coped from someone's blog) haha!

Ok.. The fire-fighting and prevention course was fun!

That's all! hehe. Too tired already.

Brazilian Chocs... Good Good!

2007-05-26T13:54:00.001+08:00

The Chocolate looks Damn Tempting!

Reaching for it!

Leaving it there before I took the bite.

Ok, I took a bite. Haha.

Holiday!

2007-05-25T14:42:00.000+08:00

Good things must always start with something bad - Report Book before going on a holiday.

It depends on how you see it. We have about a month...

This month is used for those who're slower learners (like myself) to catch up with the rest and also for the cleverer people... (I shall not name who) to slack a bit, so when school re-opens, we're on par with each other! M.O.E has such a good plan with everything.

Thanks to all who helped me pass my maths. English will have to buck up. Dunno why some people just cannot stop bragging about their marks. The way they put it is like "Oh, I expected a distinction for it lei!"

Oh yes, I found an article in the Today newspaper lei! Guess who wrote it! Oh, my god.

I scanned it and put it inside. Feel it is a bit motivating. Was shocked when I saw the name. Dunno whether is really him or not. haha.

Couching Potato, Hidden Dragon...

There's this something which I loved alot as a kid and I finally found the recipe from my neighbour. It turned out that she likes this dish too! Wow. It's a small world. But.. the story is true.

I love potato croquettes. Nothing beats deep-fried carbohydrates. haha!!

This is a very simple recipe which everyone can make. Let's do it!

Ingredients:

2 to 3 potatoes
pepper and salt to taste
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon full cream fresh milk
50 to 80 gms of cooked ham or cooked seafood like fish, crab or prawns (cut into small pieces)
2 tablespoons of plain flour
breadcrumbs to coat
1 egg beaten

Simply, boil the potatoes in some water for 10 to 15 minutes (tip: if you make soup and accidentally add too much salt, you can drop in a potato and it will help absorb the salt). Remove the potatoes, drain them and mash your soft potato chucks while still hot. Add in the butter, pepper, salt and milk. Mix well and add in your ham or seafood (if you ham is salty, you do not need to add salt).

Divide the mixture into small equal portions and shape into 2 inch long rolls. Flour the palm of your hands and pat each roll in the beaten egg. Then roll in the breadcrumbs and deep fry in hot oil till golden brown. Drain on a paper towel to remove the excess oil and eat while still hot.

Serve with a little bit of mayonnaise. hehe. Well, if you're afraid of getting fat, all you need to do is...

dun eat lo! hehe.

In "LOO-ving" memory...

Toilets of the world unite…

Pee, urinal. Pee, pee, urinal.

Shit, cubicle. Shit, shit, cubicle.

(I can’t continue this cheer anymore. It’s a bit gross. Any ideas, please contribute. Thanks.)

Let’s face it. We all need to use the toilet at some point in our lives – Even when you constipate – and there’s one organisation which dedicates its cause to the regular maintenance of all the toilets in the world. That’s the World Toilet Organisation (WTO).

Maybe Kranji should have a KTO (Kranji Toilet Organisation) also. The toilets in the canteen is… urgh; so sucky… Also some toilets are haunted. Eee. Damn scary when you’re inside alone. Sometimes so scared that when I wash my hands, I don’t dare to look at the mirror. Haha.

Also, I remember when I was in Sec one, the level one toilets at level one that’s nearest to the field, is a bit scary, cos it’s like very big. An also got a lot of cubicles. Like all the cubicles were lined up side by side. Something might just pop “its head” from one of the cubicles and freak you out. Haha.

That said, it’s not meant to scare you. Good good. Maybe I can put a series of ghosts stories after my food-related posts comes to the end of its season!

Have fun. Oh, here’s the link if you’re interested in finding out more about the WTO. Lol.

http://www.worldtoilet.org/

Oh, yes. By the way, I already know who posted the last comment. It's an officer. haha and it's................................ Sir Kenneth! Your "hahaha" at the end of your sentence gave you away. hehe. Only you will "laugh" like that. clever right.

2007-05-15T18:24:00.000+08:00

Nothing to do, very bored... So I went out with my friends lo! to Vivo City!!! Whoa! The place is like, gigantic, humongous, jumbo-sized, whatever words that describes things that are so huge and out of this world, it's meant for Vivo City.

Ok, so I was at Vivo City yesterday, with my friends... It's so huge. There're alot of shops lo! But all the shops all a bit small small one. Haha. Only a few shops were big. But it's really like a shopping heaven. Things aren't going on sale yet, but it's really alot of variety lo!

Anyway, the Great Singapore Sale is coming soon! Visit http://www.greatsingaporesale.com.sg/ to find out more!!!

Yup. So as you can see above... Carl's Junior is the food of the town!

Though a bit expensive, but it's really huge... I ordered the Barbeque chicken something... Can't really remember the name. *Lost my memory after I finished eating the burger.* haha. Whoa! So big, can. Really so huge that even a person with the biggest mouth cannot fit a mouthful of the burger into the mouth.

I have to seperate it into halves and eat! Haha. Ok, that means I got 樱桃小嘴 (Meaning, small mouth, just like a cherry) LOL!

Nevertheless... I finished the burger Ok!

Their lemon tea very special lei... They give u the cup then u pour the tea urself... *of course this is not the special part, stupid* Then u add lemon... *No, this is not special too...*

Then you have to pour syrup (i think is sugared water) one lei!!! I ask my friend why need to pour syrup.. Then she say, "you try la, dun pour syrup and drink"

Whoa! The bitterness is the "can-die" type. Haha.

$10 ++! Eat until stomach explode also will eat one! Wahaha!

Ok, That's all for now. Let's have a KSJ gathering there one day!!!

Re: study study study...

2007-05-05T21:07:00.000+08:00

It's been another day burnt just by reading the notes... Exams exams... Now I'm starting to miss SJ trainings... At least that would mean that it's not in the exam period.

Heard the Kranji Newsletter going to be printed liao, but dunno when it's coming out. Wonder if there'll be any articles featuring me! haha. Maybe I'll be the "cover person", even though the chances are very small.

Well, well. Maybe I can be recruited into the Newsletter Committee!

Oh yes, heard about many other things also, like on 27 May got Fire-fighting and prevention course. Read about it from cadets in other corps; seems fun! I didn't know actually different coloured fire extinguishers are used for different types of fire one!

Somemore I don't know whether we can fight a real fire anot! haha. I wanna go!

Anway, just finished playing audition. Getting a bit bored with it already. I think I need more sleep instead. Look forward to KSJ training - ie end of exams!

Frying an Egg.

2007-05-04T15:32:00.000+08:00

You can have a soft, moist fluffy omelette without using it. Try this recipe meant for two persons:

Fluffy omelette:

4 eggs (room temperature), separate yoke and whites
3 to 4 tablespoon fresh milk
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons butter

Beat the egg yolk and add in the milk, salt and pepper. Beat the egg white separately till stiff and fold the egg yolk mixture into the egg white. Melt the butter in a frying pan and pour in the mixture. Cook slowly until the bottom is brown and the egg mixture sets. Place the pan under a grill to further cook the omelette until the top is lightly brown. Watch the omelette as it browns very quickly.

PS I would add some bacon chips in the egg mixture for a tastier omelette.

And for those of you out there, who're guessing who I am, not need to guess. I just want to blog about Kranji St John and a little bit of my life... Do my little bit for Kranji only... I dun wanna play the guessing game le la... But can I keep my identity secret?

Messy, messy, messy

2007-05-04T09:08:00.000+08:00

Whoa.

Passed by the St. John Room today, saw the condition inside, really a little bit messy lei. Haha. Maybe Cheung Weng can clean up a bit, or maybe Sze Him can help clean up also, my friend was like saying, "haiya, be like the BB la. Use photo boards to cover their window panes, then inside like pig sty also nobody knows. Haha. Image ma."

I was like "Er..." You're from BB and you're saying that?!

Whatever it is, today is Friday lo! Two more weeks will have SJ training again. Heard Sir CK is coming down lei. Wonder how he looks in Botak head. If I botak, how will I look ah? haha. Well, well. Will only know in about another few years' time, cos I'm going into NS.

Excited sia. Army seems fun and Sir Choon Siong is an officer in the army lei! Cool sia.

Ok. Multiple identities. The guessing game continues.

P.S. To increase the difficulty of this, I'll be taking different identities to post. So I think now u must be racking your brains; who the hell is this?!

Caught Already?! Game Over?

2007-05-03T15:09:00.000+08:00

Oh no! Sir Shen Yang has found out about this blog already!

So fast! It's only my third post! Oh, nvm. It's alright. Lucky I never put my name. hahahahahahahah~

So happy finding, Ong! Hehe. That's what the cute Sir Kenneth always call him. Wonder what he calls him in private. Dear?! haha. Maybe they gay also we dunno. Anyway, better dun say too much. Later Carrot scold. haha.

I think Sir Shen Yang can go and join the Police intelligence team already. Everything also can find. I bet he was the one who found all our blogs and tell the officers one lor. Fierce also not enough, must track us somemore. Hai~

Just read his blog - found me liao le lor.... so sian. so fast get caught le. Anyway... that means I'm watching the Officer's blogs also la. Watch out! Cos this is my way of fighting back. You stare at us, we stare at you. You watch us! We watch YOU!. haha.

I can be a senior NCO also what or best, I am an officer. haha. Quick Quick! Greet me! haha.

not necessary cadet ah.. haha. He thinks that I'm going to do harm to Kranji St John lo. haha~ But coming to think of it ah... What he say does makes a bit of sense. But haiya~ I just say whatever I like here lo... No one knows about me anyway...

Dunno whether it's a good thing to write this here, but I feel he also very Ke Lian. RSM dunno what post la, but sounds like he have to act very fierce like that. Sometimes when he smiles, can make you feel so scared one. But when he crack jokes - even if it's a lame one - people will still feel a bit relieved la, at least we know he's not angry or what.

Whoa! write so much about him already. haha. Just pouring my thoughts out. BleahX =P

Katong Laksa!

2007-05-03T11:43:00.000+08:00

Weather: Rainy
Food: Katong Laksa
Venue: Bugis
Person: Me and Mum

Exams are so boring and the paper today is damn tough, can... Ok. I won't say what paper. Or else you will know liao...

But looking on the bright side of life, *Always look on the bright side of life, *Whistle whistle...**

Haha. Ok. L is for LAME...

Went to Bugis today with my mum... Yes, I know it's a bit weird to go to Bugis on a Thursday and with my mum! I mean.. who would go there with your mum, right. Like Bugis is such a I-won't-wanna-go-with-my-mum kinda place...

Nvm. My mum brought me to this Coffee shop at Bugis. It's beside the OG shopping centre only, like a "roadside stalls" like that, by the side of another building. Not very familiar with this part of bugis, apart from the GuanYin Temple there. Very famous one.

Their Katong Laksa damn special. *You must be thinking: "Like what? The noodles can fly ah?"*

No la. stupid. The noodles are cut up into small strips and then they give you spoon to eat one! Special right?! haha. Mum say last time the real Katong Laksa is use spoon to eat one. So I'm eating the real Katong Laksa! haha.

Not too expensive. $3 only. Quality is not bad. 7 out of 10. But it's a little jia lat la. When it rains, the rain water will seep thru' the big umbrella, dunno is whether it got holes or what. Rainwater just *Toop!* drop on your head. Haha. Lucky didn't drop into my Laksa. But it drop into my Kopi-O, can... wa lao....

Summary: Food is good, place is ok. Service also not bad. Worth coming back.

Hello Everyone!

2007-05-03T08:35:00.000+08:00

Dear all,

This blog is dedicated to all Kranji St John (KSJ) Members and apart from the boring training updates, we'll be bringing you the updates on the interesting events happening around Singapore! Mainly, it's to get you to be more familiar with the world that you are living in!

Well, well... If you're guessing who I am, then I would say.. forget it. You'll never get it!

No la, not the officers, man. I suppose they're too free to do nothing than to write a blog! Cadets... I suppose la. Maybe too busy with school work, so won't be able to update this blog as regularly as I do... So who am I? haha. That's for me to know and for you to find out.

Maybe I should say something related to KSJ to let you believe I'm one of you. haha.

Ok, your boss is what... Sir Derrick something right... Then number two in command is of course our Dear Ms Tan!

Number three... not so sure is who la. Choon Siong something, right...

haha. Ok, and of course there's the cute Kenneth Sir and then got handsome Choon Kiat, Xinyan and Ai Suan and our dear Senior NCOs! haha. dunno why they come back and help then dun go for officer course, very qi guai right...?

Ok, enough about them... For the next five posts, I'll be bringing you pictures of the best foods that I or my friends have personally tasted and rated it as "5-Star".

Certainly worth tasting, I would say.

Well, do keep a lookout for me, cos I'm watching you. haha.
