Hmmmm... put it that way, I’m not really that free yet ya. =_=
But unimportant things aside, I can finally go back to training!! I cringe at all the trainings I’ve missed. At first, I was kinda relaxed and relatively stress-free at the thought of stopping trainings. Then... I started feeling real weird lah. It’s like an addiction. =_= Heh. The Sunday ones should be no problems from now on! Yay!! But I’m so going to die this Sunday... I have absolutely no stamina left!

Stress
Feeling today is as stated above... stressed beyond belief. Shaoyun’s group’s presentation was unbelievably good. Oh man... I don’t expect anything less than fantastic from Shaoyun’s group lah. But it’s still really stressful to be the next group after his. T_T
Ahhhhhhh...... I really hope our presentation goes well next week…

History Comrades
Realized that I’ve been kinda fixated on kendo and the people in kendo for the past 3 years. Not that it’s that bad... but I’ve realized that it sort of inhibited my interaction with others. I’ve only got that few friends outside kendo. With J, kitty, hen, ichaya making up the bulk of my “outside kendo” friends. J being the closest of the lot.
Since after the fieldtrip to Malaya, I’ve gotten to know a lot of my classmates better and it’s all been good. I’ve always thought that some of them are too smart for their own good. Haha... maybe I’m just jealous. But these people turned out to be smart as well as nice! Damn it! I can’t even dislike them now since they’re so nice and funny. It’s good that I’ve gotten to know my classmates better and I guess a lot of it must be attributed to the fact that we went thru (and is still going through) termpapers/presentation hell together. =_=
Thank god for these wacky, fun, not to mention nice people… else classes will be a chore. Not that they aren’t already of course... just that they’ll be more of a chore than they are already. Heh.
Ps: looking forward to training on Sunday... though I think I’m so going to die coz I’ve got no stamina no more. T_T

the past few weeks or so...
Bogged down...
I’ve been going to school most everyday these past few weeks. Hmmm... actually just the past week or so. =P I have piles of work just waiting for me to clear but I can’t seem to finish them. Or rather, I’ll spend my time in the library staring at nothing or listening to music. T_T I’ve not been going for training much these days. Applied for a leave of absence. But frankly speaking, I miss training so much... not the stress of course. Just the training... ah... I’m looking forward to Sunday’s training! =) I just hope I can make it. But I should be able to if I work really hard on sat! hehe.
JB and New shoes!
Bought a pair of converse shoes from JB a few days ago. It’s black with red trimmings. Oooooooh. I love it! I even bought red laces to go with it! Ended up wearing red laces on one side, white on the other. Totally weird. Haha... but I like it. I totally did not plan to buy anything from JB. It’s all hendri’s fault! He went and bought a pair of red converse shoes and made me want to buy a pair too! Hehe…in the end, both raaha and nat bought a pair each. The trip to JB was totally relaxing! Made me forget bout school for 1 day. Hehe…well worth the money I guess. And despite kitty and J’s warning that JB was the crime capital, nothing really remarkable happened. Hehe... guess we were really lucky! Or we look too poor to be bothered with. =P

Mission Accomplished!! Force 4207 is BACK!
I’m back! After a week in the “wilderness” of Malaya, I’m finally back! It has been a really fantastic trip! The trip was great and the company was even better. The whole group was fantastic but Raaha (the guniang), Hendri (handy hen), Yongkai (stiffy) and Natasha (AJ) were the perfect traveling kakis! I’m supposed to be the “midget”... but I resent that. =P We had so much fun just laughing bout nothing in the bus. Haha...
The trip was fun but tiring. The long treks down the rubber and oil palm plantations... the high and scary climbs up the high ridges... the pouring rain and the scalding sun... I thought I’d turn into a baked potato walking down the long railway road in the sun!! I think the worst of the lot would have to be the mosquitoes. The sheer amount of bug spray and sun block I put on was unbelievable! But the bugs just kept on coming! =_=
So! Two things I absolutely cannot stand on this trip would be the mosquitoes and the smell of the insect repellent! God…even now, I feel like puking when I think of that smell. I honestly don’t know which was worse…. the bugs, or the bugs’ spray. =_=
Learning bout the “driving charge” of the Japanese as we did on this trip, we really ought to admire the Japanese for their initiative and daring... their tank division was awe-inspiring! Esp Watanabe! As prof Farrell said, it’s “Tempo! Tempo! Tempo!” the Brits and the Allied soldiers couldn’t keep up and things just started falling apart. It’s amazing how a few bad decisions of the commanders on the British side made matters so much worse than it could have been. =_=
I really have the utmost respect for the Aussies! The ambush they set up at Trolak was fantastic to say the least. They were really great fighters! Esp Colonel Anderson. Charging through at least 7 roadblocks by the Japanese with heavy artillery, equipments, and wounded. Though he failed in the end to escape to friendly territory with all of his wounded and equipments, he was still an extraordinary leader/fighter. *Salute*
