朽木百哉のブォグ

The scene was in a rotten wood-type of shackle bunk style, which had been dimly-lit; I had brought Serene into a place which is like a mercenary camp, where different groups gathered for a common purpose like those in Terminator 4.

First was to a clean, but old place, where my sister and her friend had settled down in the next room, and told me that my sister spent alot of anime accessories like the headband for FFVII was there; tiara-like, shimmering like the Matrix in Transformers 2; that room was in the exact same layout as my sister's room, with the exception of the greenish walls and old touch.  In my room was a queen sized bed, fully furnished where I can house my sword holster (backslung when I entered the place).

We moved out to scout the area after settling belongings in our rooms, and there was something which we need to take from a room; Serene had gone forward to the steel cabinet in the corner of the room while I waited for her in the same room, where there were 2 other guys; of one, whom wanted to get fresh with her by offering his help in a form of a "trade", which I had given him a hard glare, and asked who is his Platoon Sergeant before moving off; somehow, the 2SG sign appeared on my arm and his comrade told him that he will be in deep trouble after this incident.  Serene had left the room safely with me.

After walking past a few rooms, the noise that attracted my attention was behind me in less than 2 metres, I saw Toh Kok Chye, one of the specialists during my regular days, shouting at Alvin Toh, holding a P226 in his hand, loaded and pointing towards him; in less than 2 mins, I saw right infront of my eyes, the trigger had been pulled, and a bullet blasting through Alvin's head in a slow motion like Matrix.

Alvin had fallen to the ground and the feud is over.  It was the 24round Feud, which Alvin had been hounding Toh Kok Chye for many years even after leaving the military on something that had troubled Toh's family.  What is left is a headless corpse of Alvin, covered with blood from the neck without any signs of the remants of his head.  Stillness of silence was carried in the air after the battle has ended.

Switchscene to another place, that was on the road towards a forested area, hearing strong lusturing of the trees with the the strong wind; it appears to be some field exercise.

Mission objective:  Locate a flower shop and retrieve the precious goods, and prepare a note for the personal target, Codename: DEARIE.

Flowershop located in Century Square with precious goods, after acquiring primary key note from Artbox, where I made the preparations onboad my Pica1.1.  The mission order had been issued GMT 0800hrs on 29.12.09 0300hrs.

Further mission notes:
This mission is crucial as I had to show my sincerity towards dearie as she has been upset with me last night for not giving her a call in the late hours last night.

AAR:
Dearie had been delighted at the sight of the precious goods and the time spent eating at Halfway House had been wonderful.  The mission is a success.

An ad-hoc session was called out and we decided to head to Alps cafe which was in Selegie, after our classes.  Members of the hoard were myself, Tristan, Kulvim, Gary and Stephanie.

We had finally settled down at Le Barz as the purpose was more to look for a place to drink, chat and catching up.

For a moment, from Gary's car vehicle no, I had thought that he is staying in a private house in Kembangan.  Upon further conversation, he is actually staying a HDB apartment in that area.  Kulvim had been losing himself by playing card games, dice guesses and singing without even noticing the waitress' name, whom had introduced herself as Vanessa, as she will be serving our table.

I had a good chat with Tristan, who shared with us why he decided to do FX instead of shares, considering the compounding factor which can earn even more compared to stocks.  Of course, the massive risk will be there.  I had been advised by our previous lecturer; Mr Tan, that the risk appetite must be there in order to survive in this game.

Stephanie had told me more things about her relationship trouble, which had been plaguing her for the past few months; it seems that her boyfriend isn't committed and if I were in her shoes, I would feel utterly disappointed too.  Advise had been given to her to put her focus in studies and clearing them as the exams are near too.

I played a few rounds of dice guessing games with Kulvim, Gary and Tristan, and it comes out such that I had been drinking quite a few rounds from losing; tolerance level is still there so I can drink more.

Ring...a call coming from dearie....oh no!  I had forgotten to call her before she retire for the night; Mission order had been launched within for Mission Apology.

We ended at 3am when the place is getting ready to close for the day; it had been a great company; we all made our way back and notified each other upon reaching home safely.

Mental maximisaion is inching to its peak as the hours go by; just. a few more rounds of sets and I will have completed the first 100 pump in my life - reps for each upper body exercise had been raised to 100, and lower body at 50 for squats and lunges.

More to continue after breaking the mental barrier.

Finally, the first time that I can see the mall without having to queue up to enter the parking lot; had went together with dearie's auntie and family, after a quick meal at Jalan Besar.

The mall was well lit, freshly designed and not densely crowded; the lessened crowd might be due to the cooloff from after the fresh feeling of a new mall; something which the heat will on be on till total exploration is complete; the late hour might be in consideration too; many shops had been closed at the after dinner hour.

My cough had been recurring; might be due to late hours and the heat build up; so tonight will be a good time for me to sleep earlier for an emergency temperature descend.  Seeing dearie napping soundly after a good back massage keeps my heart warm, while watching a TV serial about an abusive and possessive boyfriend, that drives across the message of social assistance for those in distress.

A comfy afternoon at dearie's place while awaiting for the mask to dry before peeloff, a missed treatment to upkeep a healthy complexion which had depleted substantially throughout the months.

The goodfelt fellowship feeling stays even after the catchup session slipped late into the night...people I plan to see down the path of life...

At almost 12 hours upon arrival to home, after the NCX fellowship at Wendy's place, I'm on the road again, to see my beloved dearie at Sengkang...

Hope her tummy discomfort has subsided.

It had been a late night for us all, after meeting up for a Christmas dinner gathering at Wendy's place in Canberra Link, her place had been populated with friends and relatives, as well as the old bunch from NS Portal.

Jack, Yiwei, Matthew, Markus were all there and Wendy, being the busiest as host for the evening, had kept us all occupied with fun events, like Musical Chair even for the adults; unfortunately, I was out on the first round, much to Serene's delight...haha...

When the crowd had left, all that was left was the old bunch, as Andrew Liew had left earlier with his girlfriend, we had a small number guessing game, coupled with food and alcohol forfeiture for those who guessed the number.

The evening sub-ending was a mini card game which some had made winnings, some not.  Matthew and myself opted out as it was not our code to be involved in any sort of gambling even on festive seasons.

Wendy had given us an update on changes at our previous workplace, which still, is her present workplace; things had became more restrictive; the fun we all shared had been gone since the batches had left; Pioneer batch, Markus, Yiwei from Batch 2, myself from Batch 5 and the list goes on...even now on weekends, dress down is not allowed.

We decided that this will be an annual event where we can all catch up, enhance the Civil-Military projected fellowship and seeing each other through our lives together.

Serene wanted to introduce Isabell to Markus, whom both are single and available.  It might be a good chance for Markus to start finding his happiness in life; I myself being a friend, does not want to see him single all his life.  He will be going over to US near Chinese New Year 2010 to see his brother who has been posted to an overseas assignment for 3 months.

God bless this wonderful fellowship and keep it going.

An alliance had been formed in DipFM10, consisting of myself, Kulvim, Tristan and Stephanie, in sequence of age.

Despite my attempt to reach out to all, this would be the best I can do to find the best clique. Not forgetting the long chat we had on Monday, more fellowship awaits on 02/01/2010 after our International Finance paper.

It certainly enforces one truth: No man is an island, for The drawing of the Four has been formed!

The last day of a 2-day leave where there will be a half day at work tomorrow; thinking about those silly calls I have to answer really irks me.

Waiting for my beloved Serene now at Tampines MRT station where she will be passing a present to her cousin before we go for a quick bite; I had spent almost an hour sauntering Tampines 1's Challenger, which the decision on a bluetooth headset has not been concluded.

Should it be a Jabra JX10 Cara, or Plantronics Discovery 925? Bottomline is to get a good one, once and for all ad avoiding poor call audio quality.

Sweet surprise from dearie Serene that she has bought me a chocolate mint wafer from NTUC; packaging looks great enough to convince me that the taste will be good 


Just learnt about a serial molester who is only 15 years old that has appeared in Sengkang, thus the more I ought to be sending Serene home especially in the late hours after her classes.

The slumber had been deep; despite being able to awake from Zhao Chuan’s patriotic song, I had to sleep deeper as the mind is still tensed up like a maximum tensioned clock spring.

Tonight will be a make up training session prior to picking Serene up; an early night lies ahead as I need to report early tomorrow for my ½ day ICT callup.

Strangely, battery level stagnated at 100% for the entire evening till today, yet no connectivity to Gmail server. Tried via web and pop3 but still u successful to date.

Looks like it's really down till further notice. Hope I've not missed any crucial mails since last night.

It is a breath-thirsty move and yet certainly good as it trains my endurance and builds strength.

The dualist movement has disabled me from using the phone in the absence of a good bluetooth headset, which will allow me to do a multi-task to keep Serene company while 'on the stationary move'.

We had been talking about an agent, Kok Leong's Plantronics headset which is the Voyager that he had proclaimed costing over $200. Learnt from Serene he had mentioned that this is also used by astronauts who work beyond Earth's atmosphere so there must e substantial quality in the headset itself.

This could be one of my material Christmas wish, but the real wish would be being able to break out of the rat race and draw an apocalypse income.

3 more mins for returning to battlestation.

The previous night had been really a deep slumber at Serene’s place after attending Ah Wei’s wedding at UIC Building. In my mind, planning has been done for our official union through marriage, but not so soon as we have our studies to handle. Being able to leave home together for work somehow also brings our heart closer to one another – something which we will be sharing when we live together next time.

Just woke up from a deep slumber after lunch, the most heavenly sensation which one gets after a lunch and a comfortable position on couch, in an air-conditioned environment.

Tonight will be another lesson before the clearance of leave, where I’ll be on leave for 2 consecutive days.

An evening of present hunt begins. It's the season of giving!

The night of watching over the two new friends of the tank are over; fortunately, found the albino female who must've jumped out of thr tank and landed in Endler's jumper squad. Phew.

Quickshot rest had been done with completion of mask which had been missed out for many weeks.

I can rest assured that they are not stressed now, as I didn't want any mortality occurence in Ladies' tank.

Not a very comfortable experience at Bomb Centre this afternoon; could
be due to the incoming flu that has made delivery of bomb a little
challenging.

Mind's a little worried on the status of F2s as a few have died; could
be due to sudden temperture change of water.

Anyhow, I must continue to tell
myself not to worry and do my best to keep them well and happy.

Saw myself in a place which resembled my old home at Blk 99 Bedok
North Ave 4; a white cupboard that my parents gave to us in a 3-men
room.

Lenz was showing me something on a mini netbook and later gave it to
me as a gift.

Switchscene showed me in some place with greenish industrial plants
and tungstem lighting; part of which appeared to be light coming from
a Hong Kong streeted filled with rows of shops.

Fiona Xie appeared and told me that the netbook can be rented to me
for a few days on trial purpose on some mobile internet plan, which "I
can ask my friend to recommend you" should I be interested.

Sounds funny, especially when it was given to me by Lenz, yet now
appears as if I'm trying out some new internet services package.

The road home has been a little squeezy on the new TIBS bus which was designed with a barely 2 an average-adult sized seat. Bus crowded, decibels incrreased and fatigue maintained.

I'm in my usual chamber again; this is the anticipated moment of event after lunch.

Serene had waited for more than 20mins for her lunch at Halfway House when stallowner cooked for those who came later. Basis of settlement: Perpetual Ban on that store.

Thinking through how people had put me under their thumb that I don't speak well and refusing to give me perm puts me in a mental position of why not moving elsewhere where I'm not judged based on my talking style not accepted to their standard? I've got other better places to move on.

Thoughts aside now since Ceasefire.

For the first time, lunch had been the most looked forward event of the day before knocking off.

As told to Wan, each day is becoming an agony so ir's no longer stayable a place. I'm so much happier during the lunch hour that I wished it can be longer.

Robert has tendered; any one in the right mind would to leave this hellpit once an opening has been found. I'm glad he made the right move.

Lunch on!...while this moment lasts...

Seems like Citibank isn’t paying enougb bonus to a particular of the employee, who called in early in the morning to dispute a 31cent increase of premium without prior notice. She has paid for it last year without questioning.

Latency = 365 days? Far worst than internet.

Deep sleep but 0.5 of 19 hours had been done. No sign of illness today, fortunately, but still had a oukey feeling about going to work in that damned blood-boiling, ear-banging and mentally-torturing place.

My days there has numbered. 3 years had brought me enough torment and building up of Dark Chakara that could launch a Death Punch and lethally wound any individual.

Serene had learnt about it as it was unravellednon our way back from her school last night. Another mad woman who said I sounded like taunting a fight when I was just trying to be audible in my explanation, to avoid fedbacked about being too soft. One doze of the chlorophyll-filled sponge can send her into Soul Society. 70 years old, go sleep and stop bothering people. SOW!

The tank should be ready for the fries that will be born in a couple of weeks; more plants for their hiding mounted into the substrate.

Saw some really beautiful male guppies at Polyart but the best value for money will still be going for them at fish farms.

Just how many fries will be born this time? The last birth brought more than 20 beautiful lives into my colony who are still in their nursery tank, still too young to determine their gender yet.

Simply sickening after receiving calls from even an ex impotent agent who had been suspended and making a fuss about his third party claims, hung up on me after I gave factual explanations. Sickening Incident 1.

Policyholder's secretary making a fuss on form that we have faxed over for her boss to pay top up premium to coincide with Road Tax. It's just. a few words and she wants us to make a form just for her request. Sickening Incident 2.

Old man saying I sounded likr pushing his call away on his third party claim which is still under investigations. Sounded like waking up from his coffin and cannot understand human language. Sickening Incident 3.

Such are spurring me to leave this sickening place.

Bad awakening as I could feel a massive swelling in my throat resulting in swallowing discomfort combined with a fluey sensation. It had occured since last nigjht as I was doing my examinations at Kaplan.

Medication, rest and repeatedly till I felt much better in the evening for lessons.

Endler's death toll had climbed massively; I might not be having adequate housing to accomodate them all; but I guess not all have the same endurance; thus the toughest survived.

I had to divided Jumper Squad into 2 tanks so there will not be any competition for air, now fully uncovered.

Lesson had finally touched on my favourite subject, Forex!

Finally regeneration complete on the shields that had been breached yesterday. That feeling had been terrible.

Workout partially done that kickstarted the day; boosting hydraulics and bioreactor.

Hope Serene had slept well last night...hearing the snooze of the army boy beside me does flash memories of myself taking a long tripped bus to Bukit Timah Road where I served part of my Tour of Duty at Ammo base. The journey was long enough for a deep slumber.

Scumbag George Lim has replied the following prior to me my email shooting “In deed I made my money, just the company system change, if you were me you will do the same thing. There’s no hard feeling. Anyway you never join. Why you so concern so much”



Such a lame excuse when he has failed in the business. God knows how much debt he has behind him.



Let’s watch the reply from the next shot.

Another sneezy day ahead of me after awakenin to spells of multisneezes that I had suppressed with medication after reaching office; sunshine was pretty bright so today is predicted to be a sunny day with a sudden veiling of the sky under rain.

Back to work but still gloomed by the effects of lack of rest following a night of deep thoughts.



System hasn’t been cooperative so I had to some quick retification works while combating the pressure that comes from all over the place.



Gek Choo’s last day; one more staff leaving and it’s a good move for her; she has yet to know the More than Meets the Eye issue ongoing here, which she was quite surprised that myself and Alex are not perm to date, despite being with the organization for quite sometime. Alex had explained to her that Markus was the last to be offered perm position (seemingly)…



Serene had faced near-physical assault by a madman who stormed into her office and demanded to do road tax renewal despite explanations that facilities are not available at branch offices; further more, it’s not catered for customers to walk in for service.



The madman happened to be LAB’s customer who was cancer-stricken; sounds like a EC (Emotional Cancer) that cause him to stir up for a trival matter without a sense of civilized behaviour; a total barbarian.
