Thank God, i'm still alive and kicking and stronger than before.<br /><br />Whenever people know i'm in ndu, they would say, tough eh, wow ndu, i will still think is the same army we're serving, is no big deal which unit we are in. The only different thing about ndu and other forces is that we take in more shit than any other unit.<br /><br />But anyway, i know myself even more through hard times and there's something good about ndu which they banished you to your lowest point and expect you to come out victorious. that sounds familiar eh? "God puts you in your lowest valley and expects you to come out victorious."<br /><br />merry christmas to all!darrenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14846857401407907690noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7487243.post-25452269500733360792007-12-22T00:32:00.000+08:002007-12-31T00:39:42.610+08:0012 days of freedom<br /><br />11 days of lazing on the bed and sleep at home<br /><br />33 meals of indulgence of food<br /><br />288 hrs of liberty<br /><br />precious time with loved ones and pure enjoyment.darrenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14846857401407907690noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7487243.post-20979388859420110642007-09-09T18:02:00.000+08:002007-09-09T18:01:13.809+08:00Two weeks plus in ndu, i'm sort of settled down in the camp except adjusting myself of waking up early as 5.30am for breakfast and training after that. Training is a normal thing for me period and at times i would i say they tortured us mentally than physically which i was defeated at times. But gradually i'm used to the trainings they gave to me.<br /><br />The batch are mainly poly guys and of course poly guys are much more of attitudes than jc guys. That problem has gave us punishments over and over again which i'm trying my best talk nicely to the attitude guys. I'm staying with three guys in a cabin, basically they are quite nice except one. Apparently, i'm the cabin ic and he is not working as a team and just being plain selfish. My buddy is a joker which i'm quite relieved than having a introvet one. His family background is taoism and his house is specially for inviting spirits to be possessed.<br /><br />The training will be tough in time to come and i believe i'm able to overcome it one by one although it may seems unachieveable and psychotic to me. Now, i have to book in like some of my cg members on sunday at a certain time. but anyway, i was well pampered when i got home, nice food is given to me, asking me what are the things i lack and they would buy. Take for example that first weekend i booked out, dad was polishing shoes for me, mum was ironing clothes for me and she was packing and labeling stuff for me. haha. But then once i'm in camp, i'm back to square one, depending on myselfdarrenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14846857401407907690noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7487243.post-77651558679044492742007-08-20T13:56:00.000+08:002007-08-20T02:25:50.188+08:00i guess i ended my ten months of being a lifeguard at swimming complex last thursday. there's where i did my first rescue, there's where the people has broadened my thinking.<br />i bought pandan cakes for them as appreciation. they taught me tons of stuff during working days which i learnt a lot and applying some into my life.<br />one of the colleagues treated me to lunch and even my kaki dropped over my place just to give me an eagle keychain which engraved my name on it. my mentor dropped me a message that i did well as a lifeguard all the while and wished me all the best i can. these little things make me feel touched and will wanna carry on with life with the best i can.<br /><br />I met up with and old friend on my birthday for lunch, really good to see him once again.<br />just to tell you a little more about him. He's fifteen years older than me and we met in school because he was a temp teacher that time. we started to hit it well when i was in seconday one and from that day, we go out and talked on the phone that time. dont be mistaken, we are not gays. He's the one who inspired me from the very start to be body-fit and that's what i am now. He even went on a thailand trip with my family it was memorable one for me. anyway, we went for lunch at billy bombers and ended with a movie.<br /><br />it's really surprising that the people that gave me birthday messages on that day that i least expected. thanks people.darrenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14846857401407907690noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7487243.post-4159167191710661452007-08-16T01:10:00.000+08:002007-08-15T23:30:37.243+08:00The month of august which means the month ghost festival, i will never be looking forward to that month except my birthday. Apparently, i stay on the second floor and people just start to burn hell notes right outside my window and the great thing is those ashes and smoke will start to fly up into my room once any breeze comes. I cant do anything but only to close my windows and my parents are into this campaigns every year.<br /><br />This is leads to my serious flu every now and then and for the moment i thought i could have dengue and checked out the website and it wasnt.<br /><br />seven more days of going in camp. I'm feeling normal but irriated by some of the comments that friends gave. He said, "darren. breathe more air, the air of freedom! kiss the ground before you go in. And he said, protect the nation! a soldier of singapore! man, you guys are not helping me at all. After all this feeling of going in and your freedom will be manipulated by people is not good but every now and then, i'm preparing my heart ready for everything and just take it positivity what it comes.<br /><br />thanks for the people that celebrated my birthday and gave me gifts so far. a belt, red packet from dad, beanie from the cg and a bag from her last of all. it was defintely better than last year's birthday including herself or maybe im going into ns so im getting alot more here and there. anyway thanks.darrenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14846857401407907690noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7487243.post-74044017181014031652007-07-31T05:25:00.000+08:002007-07-30T14:59:05.159+08:00a trip to redang island<br /><br />went to snorkeling with her at redang last week, it was fantastic. eat well, they really give you good food and serve you like king and queen, sleep well, a room that is so big that can compare with my home living room, play well, snorkeling and swimming, beautiful evironment away from singapore and a refreshing of mind before i go to ns.<br /><br /> e exciting experience in the open water and able to see and touch it myself which normally i can see on tv only at home. they said we are able to see sharks, rays and turtles and we are only exposed to small fishes surrounding us.<br /><br />after this trip, i'm sure i'm more comfortable with choride water than salt water. everytime after snorkling, my face would itch so much. and i do not know how am i gonna survive in diving unit for the next two years for that.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisqrPO5VyzCits7o_TSRWhL9nXFIZkfNRm7kGNKgCWDONRfifUczatVQCYU4pE5n1Prc8Zgsx1p0W_xKr7nJ376AlG86rF_N9rGB3pQjnYm9rXU6WvwzmAWeLYxN8dKPa0qb_DIA/s1600-h/40130006.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5092877424420826866" style="FLOAT: left;

You should strongly consider majoring (or minoring) in Psychology, Sociology, or related majors (e.g., Counseling, Industrial-Organizational (I-O) Psychology, Social Work, or other social science majors).<br /><br />It is possible that the best major for you is your 2nd, 3rd, or even 5th listed category, so be sure to consider ALL majors in your OTHER high scoring categories (below). You may score high in a category you didnt think you would--it is possible that a great major for you is something you once dismissed as not for you. The right major for you will be something 1) you love and enjoy and 2) are really great at it.<br /><br />Consider adding a minor or double majoring to make yourself standout and to combine your interests. Psychology and Sociology are both great minors to add to any major.

/><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />i finally put that stainless steel around my teeth. obviously the results and the pain does not seem to be what i had expected intially when i haven't put it on.<br /><br />i didnt know it is so troublesome and irritating putting the braces. for the first time, i cant enjoy my chicken rice without swaying my tongue on my upper teeth at the end of the meal. when i ordered noodles or ban mian, i swallow the stuff but not munch. i need to cut my bread into smaller pieces in order to eat. oh well. beauty<br />comes together with the word sacrifice.<br /><br /><br />looking back at 2006, the things that i have done wrong and correct, glorious and sinful. it defintely has made me to become a stronger person. thank God for the people who are around me, you know who you are and thank God for still pressing on all this while.<br /><br />anyway 2007 is here already, there are so much things i wanna get it done and come to pass. the more i think of it, the more excited i am. first time at sentosa picnic later and the people who are going are still online. i just hope we will make it happen somehow.darrenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14846857401407907690noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7487243.post-1166635794394032622006-12-21T17:30:00.000+08:002006-12-21T01:29:54.426+08:00its was raining heavily. most people cant go out because of the rain. curses and swear upon it. working people will think that its a good time to sleep at home but too bad they are working. so their mood for the day goes down as well.<br /><br />for me, i love rain at this point. what a relax feeling to go to work during rain. where we will not allow people to go to swim because of the thunder and stuff. there was this colleague that was working with me today was shouting to the sky, rain come ba, rain come ba. he started to sing after that, and rain really come indeed. haha.<br /><br />walking around and chatting with the colleagues or changing seats here and there to find a comfortable seat. besides that, when people are sitting together you will chit-chat or something, obviously you will talk unless you are dumb or introvet, but instead they are stuffing me with their precious life experiences and working life.<br /><br />a senior who is working there has watched me grow up and was my coach for swimming since young and now he's sharing his experiences with me. i started to believe to have a mentor is for life, no matter what age are you and where are you expertise in, they are still there to give you advices.<br /><br />christmas is coming real soon. a new year is coming soon also. people, NS, fastened your seat belts, he's coming, be prepared to be influenced by him.darrenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14846857401407907690noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7487243.post-1166098085545115292006-12-15T12:06:00.000+08:002006-12-14T20:08:05.573+08:00<center><a

afterall.darrenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14846857401407907690noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7487243.post-1165945287238875102006-12-13T17:44:00.000+08:002006-12-13T01:41:27.616+08:00i was on my way home in the train and all of a suddenly, there was this american guy started to talk to me, i was a little startled but anyway he was just trying to be friendly and he asked me how was my day so i replied back. things started to get strange and people around us keep looking at us. and the conversation doesnt end just like that, he started to ask me what i usually do and stuff like that.<br /><br />i thought he came from overseas and cultures are not the same, that's why he's so friendly. why not since im alone and its better than to talk to another person than staring in blank. and halfway through the conversation, i asked him why is he doing in singapore, and he told me he is a missonary. and this explains what's the conversation about and he gave me some stuff of course and invite me to his chuch or something which i was expecting it already. after i alighted, the whole thing was in my mind some questions were left with no answers. but anyway a nice guy actually. damn. should have ask him to come for christmas celebration.darrenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14846857401407907690noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7487243.post-1165901267380290372006-12-13T05:48:00.000+08:002006-12-12T13:50:08.916+08:00havent had a good supper for a very long time, went to changi village to makan. this time it was a little bit different cuz i have to cook e steak by myself. i wanted to be medium rare intially but at the end of the day, it was really well done.<br /><br />i dont really liked him when we first met, man with few words and dont say hello back. but after working with him for the same shift, he's quite a nice person afterall, he told me about his life and stuff. you cant help when two persons are sitting together doing nothing.<br />he's a chinese sinseh and he's not a ordinary one. he healed many people that are terminal-ill. apart from that, he's a really a good swimming coach, many people went to him to learn swimming and i got some techinques and skills out of the chatting. back then, he's e fastest man swimming butterfly for 23s for 50m. even ang peng siong have to stand aside and watch him perform. a very humble man which i can learn from.<br /><br /><a

is the first time i got food poisoning, you will probably laugh what is the cause of this poisoning. yes. i ate carl jr meal yesterday night and is a double western bacon cheeseburger combo meal. the feeling of getting food poisoning was unbearable and irritating. i probably wont eat carl jr. again.<br /><br />i've been working at swimming complex for the past few days, i would say that the the environment is quite good, typical swimming complex and most importantly, the people over there are nice. each day i worked, i'm learning so many new stuff from them. not only the tactics of saving people but also the mangement of life.darrenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14846857401407907690noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7487243.post-1163788679273742832006-11-18T18:29:00.000+08:002006-11-18T02:37:59.286+08:00i'll
