had to go back to office today.. yup.. on a saturday.. may have to go back again tml.. rushing for the PD audit tml.. thank goodness its not the real auditors but the guys from ernst and young.. helping us out by preparing 'practice' sessions.. what a weekend eh? been thinking abit.. my life's getting from boring to a game of golf.. it just gets worst.. its empty.. maybe i should pick up a new hobby of sorts.. that should keep my mind off how lame my life is and what a loser i am.. the truth hurts.. bleah.. wearing my spongebob boxers i got from chatuchak last year.. which reminds me, i think i'll go catch that show.. darn lame i know but i suppose a lil lameness and a couple of laughs would do me good.. sigh.. i feel so meek, so empty, so impotent(its just and expression), so dull, like i've lost my mojo.. like the colours of my skin's running off.. i don't like it one bit.. pray i find my groove back before i decide to throw myself out of my window.. (even though i only stay on the 2nd storey)..

Tell me when will you be mine
Tell me quando, quando, quando
We can share a love divine
Please don´t make me wait again

When will you say ´yes´ to me?
Tell me quando, quando, quando
You mean happiness to me
Oh, my love, please tell me when

Ev´ry moment´s a day
Ev´ry day seems a lifetime
Let me show you the way
To a joy beyond compare

I can´t wait a moment more
Tell me quando, quando, quando
Say it´s me that you adore
And then, darlin´, tell me when

Ev´ry moment´s a day
Ev´ry day seems a lifetime
Let me show you the way
To a joy beyond compare

I can´t wait a moment more
Tell me quando, quando, quando
Say it´s me that you adore
And then, darlin´, tell me when

Oh, my darlin´, tell me when
Mmm, my darlin´, tell me when

haven't been blogging for 2 main reasons.. firstly, i didn't felt like it.. next, i've nothing to say.. my life's been colourless, plain, empty.. so why am i blogging now? well.. coz a spot of colour just landed on my canvas sheet.. spent e night in my office.. had to report to tango wing to be a platoon umpire for the cadets' platoon assault course (PAC).. ex octs should know what this is.. basically fast-marched with the cadets through the course to ensure that they are safe and to take down breaches of PAC rules and their timings and later work out their score.. took each platoon about 2 and a half hours to complete the course.. walked and walked.. weather was hot.. well.. i guess this is as close to going outfield as i can.. gotta go back to camp tml (yes, on a saturday), hopefully just for a short while to work out some crap with my boss.. bleah.. work work work.. darn PDS audit.. -_-" i hope that my boss really meant 'only a short while' when i heard it over the phone.. lucky thing its at 11am.. don't have to wake up darn early again.. life sucks..

Some day, when I'm awfully low,
When the world is cold,
I will feel a glow just thinking of you...
And the way you look tonight.

Yes you're lovely, with your smile so warm
And your cheeks so soft,
There is nothing for me but to love you,
And the way you look tonight.

With each word your tenderness grows,
Tearing my fear apart...
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose,
It touches my foolish heart.

Lovely ... Never, ever change.
Keep that breathless charm.
Won't you please arrange it ?
'Cause I love you ... Just the way you look tonight.

Mm, Mm, Mm, Mm,
Just the way you look to-night.


just love this song.. esp the clarissa monterio one.. frank sinatra's not bad too..

boring boring day at work.. just a dull dull day.. as usual.. hate that feeling.. and as usual, i was home early.. as i alighted from the bus at jp, i had this urge to go into the cd shop to look around.. and i finally bought the album that i've been eyeing for a long time.. ray charles' "genius loves company".. basically a collection of duets he did with many different artistes like elton john, diana krall, B.B. King and so on.. really good.. a couple of my fav songs like "you don't know me", "sorry seems to be the hardest word" and "Sinner's prayer".. unfortunately, one of my fav song by charles, "georgia on my mind" isn't on the album.. a little disappointed but.. what to do.. i'll keep my eyes open for that.. been thinking alot lately.. same old things that have been on my mind.. just praying that time would answer all my query and that things would straighten out before me.. hopefully all things would turn out well.. guess i'll sleep on that note.. and with ray by my ears..

just got home from jeremy hou's 21st birthday party at his place.. they grow up so fast don't they.. was in town earlier with garrie to find a present for him.. we decided on a cool quiksilver sling bag in the end.. on top of that, we headed down to condomania and purchased a couple of naughty things for him.. haha.. got him a little box of 3 condoms which are tiny.. it says something like 'for small peckers' or something like that.. can't remember exactly.. we also got him a box of funny shape condoms.. haha.. quite funny.. we had a buffet at his condo (i know what u are thinking.), by the pool.. met many friends.. whom i didn't expect to see.. like by bmt buddy who sleeps beside me while we were in tekong.. met jj band seniors like kok wee, alvin, wei zhi, mr hou (my secondary sch headmaster) of course.. spent most of my time there chatting with garrie and grace, aka chi-me.. haha.. haven't seen her for quite abit.. its funny how she got that nick.. she's my senior and we used to do prefect duties together.. one fine day, she was making fun of my name since many pple call me chi-you instead of chiyu.. she was like, 'if u are chi-you, then i am chi-me!'... duh.. haha.. well.. truth is, pple have been getting my name all mixed up.. i've heard terrible distortions of it.. i finally gave up in college and decided to introduce myself as chi, instead of chi yu, since if u say chi yu fast enough, it eventually would sound like chi.. sigh.. well.. haven't been feeling all that good lately.. feel so empty.. like i've nothing to live for, just living each day at a time, no goals, nothing.. maybe its just a passing phase.. just know that i have something missing in me which i so badly want back..

was at mandai 100 & 300m range yesterday as a neutral empire for 3SIR's advance trainfire package marksmanship test.. what's a neutral empire? think 'A' level invigilator.. just there to make sure that the 'teachers' don't cheat or help out the 'students' in any illegal way.. was the test begins, i head down to where the shooters are to ensure that all is run properly and that the safety specs and officers don't give the guys 'magic bullets' and things like that.. weather was hot.. too hot for comfort.. but the night shoot was more interesting.. we were at the 300m range.. the shoot was to take place at the 100m mark so we took a walk down the chamber to the 100m mark to begin the test.. one of the corporal asked, 'what happened to the moon? can't see shit now..' well.. the moon was indeed an important factor for a good night shoot but.. oh well.. just try your best.. its still possible to do well.. it was dark.. so dark i can't even see my fingers.. no choice.. to make sure i don't fall and make a fool of myself, i took out my handphone and used it as a torch.. not very useful but.. at least i didn't fall.. i stood just behind the firers as they took their test.. non of the men know me since i'm from an external unit.. as i stood there, one of the men said to me, (thinking i was one of the assistants in the chamber since he can't see me..) 'aye.. i can only miss one for night leh.. if not i no marksman le..' 'ok. then don't miss lor..' 'you must help me leh.. when u see the target come up must tell me loud loud leh.. hit or miss also must say leh..' 'ok ok.. don't kang chiong.. just concentrate on your shoot..' boy was he excited.. the shoot begins.. 'firers, watch your front!' this guy makes the first 4 shots.. he moves down to the 50m to begin the next set of targets.. i followed, eager and silently hoping that he can get his marksmanship badge.. LADs (laser aiming device) on, the firers waited for the targets to appear.. 'UP!' i shouted.. rounds flying.. in the midst of it, that guy suddenly shouted 'where's my light? where's my laser?' i looked over and realised that the laser pointer was covered by his rifle sling.. 'your rifle sling! your sling!' it struck him immediately and he remedied the situation and carried on with his shoot.. he made it.. got his badge.. boy was he happy.. so was i for him.. as we headed back to the training shed, blurred by all the tracers and burning rounds, we were practically blind.. this time, i was walking infront of him, about 10 m away from him.. he shouted 'hey.. thanks man..' i reply, 'no prob'.. he then said to his friend beside him.. 'aye.. who's that guy huh? so damn tall..' hearing that, i said,' i'm not from 3 SIR..' puzzled, he flashed his torch onto my face, seeing me and the bar on my shoulder, he was startled.. (don't ask me why..) he immediately said, ' sorry sorry sir.. i didn't know it was you..' 'hey.. its ok.. congrats on ur marksman score..' we just reached the end of the 300m range, now we can see.. he smiled at me and said 'thankew sir. thanks alot.' i simply smiled at him, and walked towards the control room as he headed off to clear his weapon.. those simple words made me think alot.. it sure meant alot.. these simple words..
