back from dearie's place. went to coca for dinner with her parents and sis and duke... quite good. didn't really eat a lot... prep for JCC... there's more than sufficient grace and favour in this upcoming year of 2005 for me to pull thru because my God is BIG and He is good!
interview with Dy commander went well and was filled with so much favour and grace from God. much shalom peace in my heart... it was very much a pleasant chat with him as he asked abt how shanghai is like compared to singapore, what position i'm looking at, what i would like to do and what i would like to tell him about my ocs experience and so on and so forth. he seems like quite a nice man.
47 hours to reporting to T2...
plan to bring you somewhere you will never ever guess. hoped to spend new year's there cos the ambience is really great. but things don't always go the way they're planned... do they? heh.

came back from Ex Hunter. found 3 checkpoints out of 4. returned one and a half hours after endex because we were given the wrong MGR for the endpoint... and all we got was a brush-aside by the conducting! -_- what a dodo bird. but it's ok, i forgive him because the Lord has forgiven me all my sins!
4 days to dearie's birthday! heh.

merry christmas! remember Christ is the reason... the Lamb of God born this very day to die for our sins so that we may be saved from the clutches of Hell... Jesus loves YOU!
booked out yesterday late morning. finished a 4-day adventure in tekong beginning with the practice and learning of CWO ops and combat swim, then transiting to a round-island route march navex (Ex Robinson Crusoe) before ending off with Ex Castaway. was in a fantastic group where everyone was willing to work for each other. built a-frame, fireplace, bird trap, monitor lizard trap, spear, fork, spoon, thongs and fishing rod. pretty good teamwork. the whole tekong exercise ended off with the killing of a quail with my bare hands. wanted to cook it but there was no time since we were given too much food to cook. oh well, next time!
the quail wouldn't stop flapping its wings after i tore its head off. my friend's one was even worse. as he plucked off a wing he would hear a squak. heh.
just hit me that brunei's in 8 days' time. it's really gonna take God to pull thru successfully and return with the JCC badge. Lord, i can because You paid for my blessings on the Cross with your blood. i can do all things thru YOU who strengthens me!!!
went to kev's place for a while for christmas bbq. the main core of my vj class went plus fc and kev's bmt platoon mates. quite fun playing burnout 3. they don't really appreciate whisky. lol. then went to meet dear. went to PP and roamed. she wanted to get a log cake but couldn't decide. then this lady walked into swens*n's and BOUGHT IT! -_- what a wet blanket. got a deuter backpack from dearie's mum, an aquascutum leather wallet from her dad and a pair of boy-n-girl keychains from ig's heaven from d*ke and her sis. so blessed... God multiplies my bags exceedingly abundantly above all that i ask for...hahaha... now i haveTHREE new bags... lol..
spending christmas with u and You is just so wonderful... so great... thanks for spending countdown with me... :)

bought an adidas bag. heh. went for first. was great although i was subconscious. think i'll get the cd.
just not my day today. first, the mambo bag shoulder pad tore and i had to sew it back. then, my brand new adidas shirt had a loose thread end and i tugged at it, resulting in an ugly permanent-looking-iron-mark. what's more, i've got to book in early. got jettison drill to learn for watermanship. can't serve as human barricade for the float parade. christmas night gotta book in for ex hunter on boxing day. another sunday burnt next week. something's gone amiss too.
it's so difficult. Lord i give up. Your turn.

wow. so much can change in 20 days. i wonder how much more in the next up and coming 20 days. peace. shalom peace.

finally! back from starlight today morning at 0250h. touched down from EVA Air. i must admit it was fun although it was pretty tiring going thru all 7 missions in homerun and finale. well at least my major and minor assessments have passed by and glorified by God!!! has been an interesting trip involving a typhoon that never hit us (all glory to Jesus and His promises in Psalm 91), a forest fire at the end of finale started by one of us (and put out by bravo coy + golf 3) and finally, a burning car in the wake of the protests over the taiwan elections.
first thing i wanted to do was to see u and show u all the stuff i bought for u... although i had some doubt over the skirts. but oh well... :) first time buying!!
a little surprised. and much sadness.

You can make a way around this... :( it's alright... hopefully i'll get another chance... homerun and finale are gonna start really soon... and that idiot just said he wanted an aop done tomorrow night...sigh. Lord i'm trading my sorrows for Your joy!!! Your joy shall be my strength!!!

in taiwan now... can't believe 6 days have passed by and green/red beret have finished. whole platoon returned before exercise cut. really great. but that means that idiot is gonna touch us. that sucks big time but it's ok... do it for Jesus! i'm God's beloved and he's not gonna steal my joy...
