Proud to be a child of God, a faithful son (I hope lol) a trying to be hardworking student, a part-time worker, a nerf/milsim enthusiast, a crafting and music lover and an awesome friend. to you :) Hope you have an enjoyable time reading about my life, as much as I have fun living it! |
Minimalist
I am a university student who loves chocolate! Coffee is my best buddy when it comes to taking on my finals. I have a tendency to want to try and do so many different things at once and as a result, I've found my hobbies to be as such!
Nerfing is one of them, but aside from that, I also love arts and craft. I have my own startup, Thumbforlego at: where I sell my works!
I love to do all sorts of crafting, so you will see me uploading posts of my leathercrafts, thumbdrives, replica guns, nerf gun modifications and gundam models! I'm fortunate enough to be blessed by really supportive parents and given the chance to explore many, many parts of the world and try out a plethora of activities. This is also how I discovered my love for film photography, videography and piano.
The film photo above is unedited! My family loves cold countries xD. We managed to catch the northern lights twice!
I've also gotten the chance to experience many of nature's wonders
And my most freezing experience to date: riding a husky ski sled into the sunset (It was -38 to -40 degrees celsius and the huskies were pretty fast.)

Why 36000feetabove? This is the altitude that commercial planes cruise at and I have always loved the view up in the sky, being amongst the sea of clouds. :) Personally, my favourite favourite food has got to be airplane buns! Does anyone else feel the same way?! With a slice of butter and looking out of the window, I have yet to find an experience that can beat that.
After tomorrow, before today

Ahhhhhh as the title suggests....yeah :/ this week has been an extremely busy week for me. All thanks to standby force (SBF). slotting in all the names sounds like a pretty 'duh' task, however when you have to consider about those who have been on SBF the previous time, those going on overseas leave, plus its the june holidays period hooooo! lots of deconflicting to do man. the worst part was really monday. because we are supposed to submit the list by morning. however, because of the parade that we had to rehearse for for the whole of last week, no one was actually able to do the work! and i didnt forsee that coming :( so.....it was really a mad rush man, trying to get all the details from various personnel, whilst trying to battle monday blues and post camp YOLO blues. hah usually i expand loads of energy during the weekends, just relaxing and doing whatever that needs to be done. and then i will be like some dead fish flopping around camp for like monday to wednesday :P thats why monday really sucked so bad!! it just so happen was the day with the largest workload for the entire week, because after that kai jie helped me out with the minor adjustments for the daily work for SBF. and with all the whatever blues and feeling so drained out after the weekends, plus it was camp weekend, woah!! double triple whammy man~ oh on a side note, when is the june holidays gonna end?? think its for a whole month right? argh im jealous that everyone has like a holiday while i am stuck in camp :(well hey hey hey, at least now we are able to have some form of entertainment when i enter camp this time round! though its gonna need some setting up. Well previously, ok wait cannot take it, let me say something. everything i say the word previously and start thinking back, i keep on imagining as though its some sort of TV program. like PREVIOUSLY on channel 5....*flashback* *flashback* *flashback*. yeap. OK coming back, some time ago, after dominic phua ORDed, he took away everything from the bunk. like the tv, the disc player, the antenna. i mean are you freaking serious, even the antenna...? ack but its alright, not as though we cant make your own antenna. zzz. so... this is what im going to be bringing into camp this book in! :P ![]() it gets quite boring in camp when you dont have a tv. like really no forms of entertainment other than the radio. 92.0fm has all the oldies, which is nice! 93.3fm is good too, because its a radio station airing fully in chinese, other than occasional english and japanese songs. the reason why i like 93.3, is because even when doing my quiet time when the radio is on, i dont understand a single thing. #disgracetochinesepeople so....hopefully when i bring this into camp, its gonna really light up our moods! This week was also a rather special week. Somehow, i kept spending money on necessities, like food, drinks.. im cutting all other expenses that are forms of luxury in a bid to save lotsa lotsa money. Though i'm kinda not done with my nerf project so..... BLEAH. okay minimal spending. The amazing thing is that despite spending money regularly over the week, i started off this week with just $5 in my wallet. By faith, i believed that i could survive on that meagre amount. and by the end of the week, i was left with $2!! its a BIG BIG miracle alright!! in the past, my average weekly expenditure could easily hit 20-30 bucks, sometimes even more. What's more amazing is that i decided to calculate how much did i spend. obviously its 5-2=$3 but after thinking through, i spent more than that!! miraculously, every time i opened up my wallet, i had enough to eat. wohoo!! Praise the Lord!! :D Jesus is awesomeee (y) anyway, now camp YOLO is over, the parade is also done already. and my knee hurts as hell alright!! sometimes, i really dont feel like walking. i tell ya, without my knee guard, walking is a chore alright. all my life i have been pretty healthy and injuries always heal quickly. not much of major injuries, but now when im at the peak of my youth, (YES I DONT CARE IM 21 BUT IM STILL A YOUTH) i actually sustain such a horrible injury! :( life sucks when you cant exercise. life sucks even more when you cant even do basic stuff without feeling pain. however, that doesnt mean its the end! :) I've prayed for healing in my knees before and it did work! however i fell down again and *pop* back to the same thing. somehow, the floor at the swimming pool suddenly became extremely slippery for no reason! and i had a spectacular fall. yeah really spectacular, just in short of falling into the pool. -___-"' like super no luck aye? anyway i went to doctors recently, just before camp week, and since my condition has yet to improve....in fact it has become worse -.- ![]() there you go. so apparently, now im supposed to recover for another 3 months. also you know what, thats what the doctors have been saying for the past year of my injury. and the thing is that it doesnt work like they claim it would! :( it feels more like they are just shrugging off the work. argh. this injury better recover by the time i ORD man.... maybe its about time i seek a second opinion. sigh but the time and effort needed to do so.... :/ i gotta see when im more freed up then yeah! like seriously other than resting, the doctors dont seem to find any other way for me to recover. Also, i did a MRI scan just recently, however when they asked me to go for an appointment, the MRI scan wasnt ready yet, so the doctor just used the old scan and gave me a 3 month time period to rest. geez i wanna know whats wrong with me man, not just get time to rest. zzz the scheduling of the appointment was really screwed up IMO. like why schedule me so soon when the report isnt even out yet, and then put the next appointment 3 months down the road. anyway, now in camp, i am pretty busy with my WITs project. WITs project is like projects done by us to improve the army...? make it more efficient, blah blah blah, most of the time its the editing of current equipments to make our lives easier or work more efficiently and comfortably. of course im not talking about having an OSIM massage chair in the middle of the battlefield or installed into the cockpits of planes. but rather, taking away unnecessary inconveniences that we have to go through. i dont even know how much i am allowed to disclose or whether i am allowed to do so or not, so im just not gonna disclose anything about my project! gosh i havent even finished the previous blog post! the one whereby im supposed to talk about my experience in camp YOLO. whoops. its still in the draft format. lmao. i have since been given a new task to do! as in church-wise. I think its extremely hard for now, for i have zero experience in doing it, however i still got to press on :) hmmm now, come to think of it, it seems really weird...because i've never done it before, which was what i said previously *idiotic me* and there is so much to learn! ah but slowly, step by step, im sure i would be able to do so! ^^ you know, its kinda funny when one prays to want to be used more for God, and then later whines about the 'extra' mile or trial that one has to go through in order to reach that stage. yep thats me! :) |
