Blog EntryNational Service. Part IApr 1, '06 12:16 AM
for everyone
Mood: Tired
Listening To: Some instrumental song..








So, it's 1st of April. And this is no April's Fool's joke about me being back in Penang. As I type now, the kids back in the camp must be having their lunch after their Character Building class; the 2nd module.


I hate the classes, btw.


Anyways, I had the wrong view of National Service because from what we see about it; it's nothing but you wearing a sick-looking uniform and march.. march..and march.


But, instead of marching, there are Character Building classes, activities and classes to attend..


Firstly, I have been sent to Sungai Bakap's Sri Impian Camp. It's not as bad as what Denise is going through (I pity her though...) but it's good. Because the camp was formerly a recreation centre; before it was taken over by JKN (Jabatan Khidmat Negara)


The Dormitory I was situated in was a little bit sad at first; as I already made some friends with some Penangnites after I left PISA. I was situated in Dorm1. There are a total of 19 people in it; formerlly 17 people, before the 2nd arrival of the later trainees (which was last Sunday.)


I am in the Alpha Company. And of course, I am the only Eurasian there. Instead of being a racist, I managed to mix in with the Indians, Chinese and Malays. Unlike what Raymond said; about Cigarettes being the international language there, Music is also one of them. I am the only guy there with a guitar, and that's how I managed to mix in with the Malays.


Nearly 30% of the camp knew me on the 2 ~ 3rd day. Mostly Malays..


And suprisingly, I managed to unite everyone in my Dormitory cos I managed to introduce myself to everybody once they step into the dormitory.


Suprisingly, National Service makes me see a different side of Malaysia. Well, except for those assholes in the 8th Dormitory. Since day 1 until today, it brings a smile to my face to see that we all are living like a family. Even when we bathe, it's fun.


Believe me. It's not about how horny a guy can get and rapes every moving object in the toilet.


We have water wars instead. x). The water in the pool are usually kept over the night. So you want to know how bathing in NS feels? Fill a pail full of water at 8~9pm at night, then bathe with it at 6am. It's like as if it was water; straight from the alantic ocean.. Bwahahahahahha..


All of us are afraid of bathing; until someone throws a pail full of water at you; of course.


Yi Qian (I kinda forgot her name.. one of LooLoo+ DeeDee's friend) said that Sri Impian camp is very strict.. Indeed, it is.. But it's fun at the same time. For punishments, it's either you march, perform jumping jacks or you run around the whole camp.


It's been only the 2nd week for me, and I'm glad to say that I'm having a great time there, but I do miss you all back here T.T.


My relationship isn't a problem as I do call Vanesa everyday. But lining up for the public phones are a bitch.. For the first week, the phones on the Wirawati's side were all spoilt. So they had to share it with us.. Bloody hell. Sometimes, those girls take over all 4 phones; leaving us with none. Bitch.


Oh. And the girls there.. At least 80% of them have attitude problems.. I encountered two girls so far.. And I don't like their attitudes..


Situation:
- I was in class; really packed, about to take my seat in my group where I accidentally nearly made the leader for Dorm2 trip. She was like a typical Malay and she was like..." WOOOOOIII... PIJAT kaKI AKU AH?"... Sorry, I don't get pushed around. I already apologized before she said that, so I raised my voice louder than she did. *burp*


- Was in class again. This time, we were switching places as we were watching some stupid video regarding attitudes.. This indian girl just shoved me out of the way and said.. "Belah LAH". I had a glance of her face; and I do remember it when I see her. She's gonna be screwed after I come back if she tries to find fault with me.


.. Most of the girls here have attitude problems. Lucky I managed to make friends with the ones that aren't rude. But I also don't mix with them because they're kinda strict about dressings.


RULES FOR NIGHT OUTINGS AROUND THE CAMP:


THOU SHALL NOT WEAR SLIPPERS OR ANYTHING THAT EXPOSES YOUR FEET
THOU SHALL NOT MIX WITH THE OPPOSITE SEX; unless if the group consists of 2 girls and 1 guy, or 2 guys and 1 girl. Never a 1-on-1 dating crap.
THOU SHALL NOT USE THE OPPOSITE SEX'S PHONE BOOTHS
THOU SHALL NOT TRESSPASS TO THE OPPOSITE SEX'S DORMITORIES
THOU SHALL NOT WEAR SHORTS (.... wtf? And I brought only 3 shorts and no long pants.. Lol)
THOU SHALL NOT WANDER AROUND THE CAMP AFTER 11PM
THOU SHALL NOT BRING FOOD OF ANY SORT INTO THE DORMITORY



Something's wrong with Multiply.. I can't seem to type my journals like I used to. I hate 2.0BETA.


Buhs. And the rules changed after the 1st batch. You're only allowed to take your phone on Sunday mornings..


And friends are able to visit. They HAVE to come along WITH the parents of the trainees. PAul was right. Lol.


Anyways, I'm not supposed to be back today as I'm not a Buddhist. But I kinda bullshitted a bit and I have a total of 7 days of PG-ness. 3 for this week, and 4 for ... week after next.... Muahahahaha..


Hmm... I don't know what else to type cos there's a lot to type about NS.. It's a lot better to ask me about it when you see me cos it's better than I expected.


Btw, Sri Impian's fucking hot. EVerytime I have my bath, I start sweating again.. I'm looking at the temperature.. it's like.. 45 ~ 48 degrees or something.. It's fucking hot there, seriously.. I can't even take afternoon naps at ALL..


Bahs. T.T


Hi y'all x)


I could see that Rooshster was friggin happy when she saw me online on MSN.. bwahahahahaha..


And I know how happy Vanesa was when she heard I am able to come back for a short 3 days.. x)

Mood: Tired..
Listening To:
Cradle of Filth - Nymphetamine








Firstly, I am typing this journal entry while I'm on the toilet bowl. With my handphone in the laundry basket so it doesn't get wet, and with my laptop on my lap. Wheeee


I am shitting now, because I don't like to squat and shit in NS. Plus, everytime when I shit in NS.. I shit at the wrong time because I always hear...


"BARIS... MASUUUUUUUUUUUUK BARISSSSSSSSSSsss...."


....


I'm back once again. Wheeee.. Special shoutout to Eunice and Paul for the RM20 phone cards as they were extremely useful while I was in the camp.. I already used up RM40.


Wormy seems to be sleeping T.T


I'm feeling tired cos I was on duty at night last 2 nights ago.. doing rounds around the dormitories to see if there are any unusual activities (like 5 people sleeping on one bed; etc etc etc..) But I played chess with my partner that night..


Rooshster went off to her piano/performance thing.. I tak tau..


Shen Ai: Get well soon. I think I'll drop by GH soon.


BraBra: I'm so sorry to hear about your grandfather..


Those who multiplies: 270 new topics?...... ?????? !Y&%!^&!*#%$&@!#%*!&#%!($&!%!%!%


I wrote a couple of wack pieces while I was there..I'll post it up later.time to multiply. T.T

Mood: Emo-ized
Listening To: Light & Easy








It's Friday. Just 2 more days and you won't see a fellow Multiply-er around here.


Most of us knows that I'll be gone for National Service. Peachyass will be undergoing the same thing too.


So.. I guess I'd just do a couple of shoutouts to those I would like to say "thank you", to after all this while.


Vanesa Kumaara
- None other but my sweetheart, my love and my baby. The one who has owned my heart; naturing it back to its normal state no matter what goes on with me; even if she's the pioneer of the mistakes. For 3 months, I will be gone; yet I'm only to keep in touch once a week. Pure torture for the both of us, but I have no other choice. Once I am at National Service, I will take care, and have fun at the camp. But never forgetting that I have someone special waiting for me at home. Once I step into the camp; I will be looking forward to the day I will come back to Penang, just to be with you again. I don't need National Service to tell me how much I'm gonna miss you, but I know that I'm gonna miss you more than I do in Penang. Though I’m away, I will continue to treat you as how I’ve always treated you.. A girlfriend, a wife, and apart of my family. Words can’t explain how I completely feel about you. I want to say that I love you lots as I feel good everytime when I say that. But I don’t want to flood this whole journal with our love. I’ll miss you, sweetie..



I keep my promises; and I will not break them in any possible way. I thank God for His creations because you’re one of them. And I thank God because I have you.



I love you lots, sweetheart. And I know you do too. Wait up for me.. Cos i'll be back for you, baby ..


...Promise..


Schizzow @ Koh Yung Shen
- Thanks for being there, being arrogant (lansi T.T), and everything that you are. Everytime you piss me off, the better our friendship gets. :). I can't blame you for doing whatever you do, cos it's you. Thanks for all the moments and times we had last year before you moved to KL, man. You made the High School Life a lot more better than it was. x).. Although we have drifted apart by a lot, but thanks for always being a brother or an uncle that I could never have. Thanks for always teaching me the better parts of life. And being an inspiration. 8-) … Because of the signboard you took from your sister’s school 8-)



X'). I hate you yaw. X)... X') ...

Btw, Shen Ai.. Schizzow has left in his MSN nickname.. To tell you that he loves you..

WoRmY @ Chong Yong Le
- FDM would be nothing without you. Or Schizzow. I don’t know what to say, man. We weren’t as tight as we are today ever since you left for Florida for the first time. After doing so, I guess things got a little bit better.. And I’m thankful that I met you. I had a slight taste of Audio Engineering because of you. Although there’s so many to learn; at least I’ve learnt a little bit.. And it’s because of observing you in what you do.


Not by observing your sitting position in front of your bloody Apple, you ass.

Thanks for just being always online in my MSN list so I got someone to crap with until the day’s over. And yeah, I’m gonna miss the mild-creation of Video Game Love via MSN. X)..


Sara Tan AND Family
- I have to thank you and your whole family for being the most down-to-earth people I've met. So humble, yet so kind. Thanks for making me feel like apart of your family everytime I come by to visit you all. I'm sorry that I'm not able to visit you all one last time, but I will be back and I'll drop by to share my experiences ;). Do take care.


DeBraBra @ Debra ???? ??? ????
- Just saja put your name here lah. Scared you cry.


Lol. Stop getting yourself hurt by doing what’s wrong. Especially relationships. Don’t always be the weaker side; but always stand on your two feet and be strong. I know you can take care of yourself while I’m away to not listen to your problems..


Also because you don’t have any other choice :P


ZhuZhu @ Chan Zhu May

-Haha.. Damn girl.. No matter how long you’ve been away, we just can’t stop missing your presence here in Penang. Glad to hear that things are going well in Australia for you. I can never be thankful because of mixing around with you. Getting to know you and your cute personality, made me the person I am today. Not to be serious; always letting loose and all that zhuzhu-influencial crap lah. Lol. Thanks to you, my wifey thinks I resemble Fido Dido. Because of you, I guess I’ve socialized with a lot of new friends.


I hope to see you as I come back. June 10th yaw. Same date as me. Bwahahahahaha.. And if you get yourself a superbike.. Please save some pictures for me.. or maybe just take the whole damn bike back via airplane x)..


Peachybutt @ Denise Stanilaus
- Thanks for being the type of friend; who’s always being there to hear someone out. I was really hoping to be in the same National Service camp, so it will be more fun than how it would be.. But sadly, the gahmen doesn’t pair up pigs and horses. So, tough luck for us.

Or maybe the gahmen are racists..


Well, I know you can take care of yourself, so I ain’t gonna wish you that. Lol. Thanks for being there to listen to every problem I have.


Paulineahh @ Paul Ang
- Thanks for driving me around and teaching me a little bit more about cars. Thanks for just pickin me up and just going around Penang just to clear things off my mind, man. Thanks for the thought of the farewell dinner (Though, I think it never happened except for a small gathering, but it’s the thought that counts), along with Michelle OhMyGod-LIDINESS!! And Rooshster.


Thanks for the advices and thoughts you’ve shared. Appreciate it, cousin x)


Caryn Foo Pee Why
- Besides Schizzow and WoRmY in multiply, I guess I do treat you as family. Not as equivalent to how I spread my love with Vanesa, but the attention as a friend; and as a brother. I thank you the most; to make me realize that my relationship is going to be far more than OK once National Service ends. Thank you for always planting the seed of faith into me; and always a person I could always talk to, and treating me like a brother x)


Rooster/Chicken/LynnLynn/Rooshi-ter/Ru-Te Roosh/Rooshster @ Tan Yon Lynn
- I don’t recall you mixing with us at Multiply at first. You had me in a confused state when I was going through my messages one day, when I saw you, just spawning replies in everybody’s journal like no other Rooster’s business. Even when I asked WoRmY, he said that you had the guts to just butt in and mix with us like THAT.


After darkness; comes the light.. which means that there’s good, in whatever we see or do. I guess you’ve been a very good friend; though you remind me a little bit of Zhu May because of that cute personality you have. Or whatever it is lah.


Stupid Rooshster. I remember I hated you, because you had to remind me of the SPM results before it came out. T.T.. but it’s all just a joke, so it’s aight. And take care while you're driving T.T


I guess you’re the only person I managed to fetch; nearly everyday when my mum was gone for a week.. bwahahahahaha.. I had serious fun; to clear things off my mind. Through you, I met someone new.. Which would be..


epxy @ Edmund Pua Xtreme Yaoyengness?
- Damn man. I have to thank you for your hospitality, being down to earth, and letting me touch your Alfa Romeo and getting me addicted to it though I’m not a car freak.. I also have to thank you from saving our lives from Rooshster as she lost control of the car that night. You rock, man. I misjudged you, seriously. Lol.


I hope to meet up with you after National Service, man. Hope you find a car which is qualified enough to replace your little darling. Muahahahahaha.. It was fun being with you x)


Michelle OhMyGod @ Michelle Oh Suet Lei
- Same reason like BraBra. Saja put your name here. X)


Anyways, thanks for just accompanying us when we usually go out (and when I would come by and fetch). The more, the merrier, y’know? And well, things are just fun when more people are around. Thanks for being a friend and also by JUST being there.


DrewDrew @ Andrew Tan
- Man.. I haven’t seen you for a while.. Where have you been, man..? Anyways, through this journal, I wish you all the best in your studies in KL and whatever you do. Don’t stress yourself out being a trainer, man. Lol. I don’t know what are the chances of meeting up with you again, man.




Well, I guess that’s about it for the whole “farewell” journal. I don’t know if I’m able to check for any replies as I will be busy.


Even if I’m not busy/lazing at home, I will not have a PC or laptop to online with, to check Multiply.com..


So, friends, also to those that I’ve missed out, I bid you an early farewell, and I hope to see you all again once I come back. I will miss you all, but I should be alright once I step into the hottest camp in Malaysia.









.. Idiots. I’m not just gonna end the damn journal like this. How can I forget the most important person in my musical journey?

Kelvyn Yeang
Thanks for being more than just a friend, which is my guitar instructor. I’m sorry for the times I’ve offended you and your band without noticing it through the messages on Multiply. I want to thank you for teaching me things I didn’t know. Not only music, but about life and a lot of things.


Hope to see you around, man. Thanks for making me the guitarist I am today.


All the best to you, in whatever you do in your life.




Well, I guess this is goodbye. I don’t know when I’ll be back. But if I am, I will drop a journal entry or two.I’m going to miss you all. Even the people who aren’t stated in the above journal, such as my schoolmates. Since they don’t use Multiply nor do they check my journal.. Why bother? Lol.


Three months, yaw.. Three months.




Good bye..
