Picture It!

Yeah~ The long awaited photos are out.. haha.. And here i present, the photos of OG 5: Kuula - The God of Fishermen.



Oh.. think the flag is great! Done by our own artist, anlin. And take a good look.. there are no dinosaurs in my OG! ^^ Wahahaa... the guys are all yandao, and the gals are all chio bu.. am i lucky or what?

But no matter how one looks.. personality still counts a great deal. A time for all of us to learn something about each other. Though sometimes i can't accomodate certain personality, i tried to.. after all, i found more important things.. or rather, most things are actually unimportant at all.

Same as everything.. what is the purpose of doing something? or rather, the reason of us being here.. different people have different beliefs.. and so long as you stay true to it.. i guess it serves us a purpose here.

Yet, beliefs should not cause intentended grief to others.. but as always, there are all sorts of CMI people around.. haha.. but as i say.. suan le la.. kpkb also like that.. will things change just because i kp? Or when people kp me.. will i just change for them?

Older le.. definately. And seeing so much more.. for the first time, i saw something happened right before me.. and i now understands.. somethings just happen.. and you don't even need to lift a finger.

Ok.. enough of my nonsense. Hahaa.. just enjoy the pics ba.. the rest are owned privately.. only posted for the Kuulas.. haha.. so sorry.

DXO (with shooting star)

Finally.. back home ^^

DXO is alright.. not really that fun coz its damn crowded. But with the right people there, i think it shall be alright. Nong nong time never crub until like that.. but the problem is, i'm not seh at all loh.. its so totally different from the year before.

So it was a tah night, opened bottle with joe.. lol.. $60 each... and i'm broke. Hah.. i realised something.. my og cannot drink 1.. though most got the chiongster seh.. =_= And when seh.. all start to chute pattern, scaring me again.. haha..

After completing the bottle.. went one floor up.. was gazing at "stars" (or rather, satellite) when we saw a shooting star.. i think, of all the things that was around.. the shooting star was the best. Not even the alcohol can shadow it. Hahaa.. it was so erm.. yah.

So it ended around 4am.. and budgeting, we went to have "breakfast".. saving the cab fare in the process.. and hence, i only reached home just.

Oh yah.. OG 5 was damn fun.. haha.. i don't know.. maybe i was just lucky to have an OG like them.. or maybe i too zai liao? Whahaaa.. bhb.. but seriously, i think its a mixture.. it isn't easy to be an OGL.. ok.. other then the things i got to settle.. i think i rather enjoyed it.

No worries though for those that might see me as chk.. haha.. i saw a lot more.. and GQ don't take advantage de lor.. mind over body leh. Haha.. the rest.. erm.. what i can say? Human instinct perhaps?

By the way.. anyone who see me no up.. wahaha.. come challenge me lor.. level 3 de wor.. i zai one.. alcohol is no problem.. i think i won't duo lor. Not anymore. TMD.. when i was training at MIA, Martell was gone in 2 visits lor.. hah. Super Zai la.. stand 1 side please.

Though i admit.. i might have problem with alcohol addiction and maybe something else.. haiz.. something which i had to face eventually. Mind over body.. but i really need the push. OGL yes.. but who's going to be my "OGL"?

Just realised a lot of things to settle.. the "interview", and also something with myself. I think i sense some trouble soon. Let's hope its just me.. i had enough scare.

Exams result coming out soon.. i can't wait to confirm my 3 buang.. though foolish to like R/S ruin everything (including friendship).. what i can say is, maybe i'm not there yet. "once bitten, twice shy".. and i got twice bitten.. haiz... who can give me faith? I'm so scared le.

7 am liao.. time to rest.. awww.. i love shooting stars ^^

I Want to Club When the Sun Don't Shine

I want to club club club when the sun don't shine~ haha.. actually after some scare, i think i might just go for an early "retirement" from crubbing and drinking. Tonight maybe just go see see can le.. haha.. never been to DXO wor.. coz live on the mountain.. haha.

Alright man.. now i got only 4 of them not going.. whahaa.. keep pushing.. keep pushing.. that is what sales is all about.. never lose faith in your product, never be paiseh. And eventually, some might.

Still a lot more about FOC to blog about.. really too much.. haha.. wait till i have time to tell the story.. so now i wait for the sun to not shine.. whahaa..

Finale

Many thanks to the excos that helped out at the "finale".. especially Ben, Sharon and Alvin.. now all is well. Thanks again.

Knew that an "interview" might be coming.. haha.. alright.. who asked me to make the wrong decisions? Luckily nothing permanent happened.. if not, nothing i say would get me out of the guilt. So, after that.. it's more of problem solving than finger pointing.

Another interview coming up.. this time by the Admin of SIM (not for job in SIM.. just an audit) ^^.. hahaa.. don't know how come tio arrow.. but wanted to see more.. so i agreed to go for it. Heh.. though i know my spoken ang mor cmi.. haha.. and my results cmi.. haha.. but.. nvm.

Experienced a lot for the first time for this camp. Haha.. some good and some bad.. but no matter.. still level up!

For the past 3 years of FOC, i've assumed the role of Freshie, Exco and OGL.. hah.. left one more GM to go before i complete the whole set ^^Yah.. and i got an "extra" year coming up.. so it isn't an issue.. aha..

Now all is over.. time to get back to the usual life.. and that is studying.. haha.. it's beem a messy 2nd year for me.. perhaps i'm searching too hard for something. Hah..

Break Camp

Woke up le.. felt so much better to have some sleep finally.

It will be an ultra fun camp on the whole.. if not for the "spectacular" finale that made me so so worried. Yah.. It WAS my responsibility.. but, by how much can i be accounted for? I don't think i will be able to.. But thankfully, all is well.. the rest of the things isn't that important anymore. A bad scare, and many more learning experience... though this price is a bit hefty.

OGL me:.. for what i've learnt for the past 3 days.. that is, not to lose faith.. especially when in the position of an OGL. For, the whole OG is "depending" on you to lead them.. so the name is OGL- Orientation Group Leader.. not OGF. Anything can happen.. but OGL must not lose their will and motivation. Heh.. and i'm glad.. but still, my decision making skill still sucks.

Especially glad was during "Operation Kuahana".. so glad that they finally woke up le.. haha.. i see so much unity in them.. (though their cheer is confirm cannot make it 1.. ) *censored contents* Haha.. though we didn't win any prize, its still a fun and enjoyable camp! Too much details i want to omit.. don't want to appear to be story telling.. hahaaa...

A bit of backtrack.. during the treasure hunt.. i actually saw pj as the GM of ntu.. so qiao right? Hahaha.. it's like, so long le. Still feeling awkard.. i wonder why.

Anway, a nice camp i had~!

Prologue

Wanted to blog.. but too tired to. Very very tired.. shall leave it to the next post. 36 hours without sleep.. argh~!!!

When the Sun Don't Shine

Woah ooh ooh~ .. whahaa.. When the Sun don't shine, i'm going home. In less than 10 hours after entering camp, i'm back at home blogging. LoL.. that makes me wonder.. for what do i went for the dry run? Maybe just to show appreciation and support bah. And then it was always the same old things again and again. For, SRC is supported by friendship, not by dictatorship or employment.

Since i've "accomplished" what i had "supposed" to do.. (which is show myself) I think it's best to be at the comfort of my home. Too many people there.. and i'm one who needs a very comfortable place to fight the Z monster. If not, i rather not sleep.. which i think is quite pek chek la. I did it during FOC'05, Camp D'06.. and really very pek chek.

This is going to be another 3 nights.. and i rather make it 2. Heh.. and i've just bathed.. makes me feel certain that i've made the right choice of not staying.

Was needing the bath coz the afternoon sun made me real darn sticky.. It was SP Day "when the sun still shines!" Tmd.. whahaa..and then there was a bathroom in each room. But.. i would need to bathe again early in the morning.. and with the whole room full of people i supposed.. i think home is sweeter.

Woah oh oh~ Impressive.. i've learn the dance liao.. ^^

Oh ya.. regarding the departmental split.. what can i say? Departments are mostly sorted according to personality and also the presence of friends. How are we supposed to break this bond? LoL.. not that we don't want.. is it takes an awful long time lor. Camp D is the only exception so far. And i can say, it has quite some influence. It wasn't a dream.. yet.. if only it could be done.

But, who cares? Wahaha. I expired already. Don't care becoz i didn't want to get involved. Care too much will get pek chek 1.. so now is all bo chup lor. So long as i happy, who cares? So long i don't intentionally make people unhappy.. who cares?

Anyway, just want to say.. SRC might be a place for some discovery. For training to handle the different people and situations. For making oneself a "better" person. For all the good and bad, it was something achieved.

Haha.. a lot of coding huh? LoL.. nevermind if you all don't understand. It was meant as a form of "encouragement" for the current batch.. (though they are busy working for the camp and i'm here at home.. whaha..) .. Jia you bah!

Oh.. oh oh oh.. siao liao. I think i got myself a lot of sai leh. What is happening sia.. everytime chute pattern.. tmd. SO SIAN AH!

Haha.. oh ya.. bash at DXO.. heard so many times.. but never went before. Hah! If got sher there sher sure tah 1.. haha.. he tai li hai le.. but thens hor.. i got trained for a year liao. Heh. Puked 3 times though.. One credit to sher at welfare chalet, one credit to warlords at zouk, last credit to wm at Holland V for the 3 pints. Haha.. and now i know my limit. So come on come on.. but most likely i prefer to pian jiu to lim.. coz i boh liue liao. How i wished school would start sooner. I'm like wasting my time everyday.

Things to be done. Yet they shouldn't be done. Hah. So in the end, nothing was done. And it was best not to be done. So it was left undone. Hah. Chim? Yah. It doesn't concern you all.

Oh.. which makes me more happy to be at home! Now sai goon liao.. lol!

Pre-Camp

I'm going camp liao! Haha.. time to leave home for a while.. been at home for too long.. think i almost rotted.

Been practicing the SP dance alone at home.. whaaha.. it was a good workout i can say. Oh.. tomorrow going in Loyang around noon time. Hah.. cannot don't go. OGL~ OGL~ .. its once in a lifetime. Make sure it'll be fun.. if not waste chance loh.

I don't know what to say.. camp is exciting becoz i'm OGL! Yeah.. thanks to the current excos.

Camp is not exciting becoz.. ya.

But OGL = positive under all circumstances.. not to succumb at any instance.

Hah.. new ways to learn new things.. that's why i'm happy. Sure. I can be happy enough. Holidays is too long for me.. haiz..

Time Flies

Oh yeah.. no longer a botak head le.. whahaaa.. whahaaa... that reminds me.. please.. if anyone hears that i want to have my head shaved again.. kindly remind me not to. LOL..

Went for FOC briefing today.. it was, very lengthy.. and of coz, being old birds.. it was apparent that there might be some issues of concern. Whatever it is, it don't matter to me.. coz i don't care. Haha.. my objective is to have fun.. then i shall be happy. And definition of fun doesn't mean go xian xiao mei mei.. i'm too old for that le lor.. xiao mei mei thinking all very weird weird one.. hahaa..

Will be at Aloha Loyang, staying at "Welfare Condo" as quoted by SL. Wahaa.. and in the end, it'll be SL, PL, WL and GQ (how come all got L in their initials 1?) under 1 roof.. of coz with the respective OGs of each. Totalling to 36 in one Condo. Welfare house it shall be..

Thinking of getting sleeping bags.. thought didn't check them out today.. but i shall need one.. coz of arthritis, don't think i can last long sleeping on the floor.

Oh.. and then we went to try out the SP dance.. it was a very nice dance.. hahaa.. very very nice. But i don't think i can dance.. it was too fast le. But still, nicer than "i like to move it".. haha.. no offence wor. I think i'd like to see the freshies dance.. and it shall be awwish for them.. whaha.. (i excuse aww one.. so i'm immune.. just doing my job as OGL wor.. lol.)

Maybe not so excited for FOC.. coz was sian for too long.. or maybe go camp until seh. Or maybe it was something else.. maybe bah.

Going camp and then going for FOC bash. Must tah until i seh.. then maybe cut down on alcohol.. maybe only. Maybe bah.

Finding less things to blog these days.. coz i don't feel comfortable blogging. "i heard a rumor". But suan le la.. suan le.

I'm a Singaporean by GQoo

National Day coming soon.. and i thought it would be great to join in the fun as well in the "i am singaporean" messages.

"I have a nickname that sounds like a drink, but i'm not in F&B. My mother tongue is chinese, but i prefer to speak singlish. I love to eat bar chor mee with tur kua, and i hate ba kut teh. I eat a lot but i don't get fat. I "contribute" most of my pocket money to the Prata man and i'm glad they've grown. I love beering, especially Erdinger. I hate Vodka because it smells like glue.. but i drank it anyway, because i always lose in 5-10. I'm from JC, which everybody believes is cannot make it. I still make it to a "local" Uni, but nah beh.. i pay adult bus fares.. I like to go crubbing, but i don't like the midnight cab fares. I love to K, but i can't sing. I play the F.Horn, but i'm not professional. I am the bassist in another band, but it is without a name. MJ is also my past time, only when i don't "tio bao". I am a mapler, but i don't say "CC Plz". I don't own a car, but i do have a license. I can drive the forklift, but i don't want to work in a warehouse. I served NS even though i got a PES C9L3. And i ORD-ed without any reduction in my NS liabilities. I haven't been to reservist ever since, and i hoped i don't need to. I served my country, and i loved it.. even thought i refused to take part as a performer in NDP this year. I loved my family even thought they liked to eat ba kut teh. I am a blogger, but i'm not famous. I hate it when my blog was mis-read. And i got more irritated when is was conveyed wrongly. But so long as i don't know.. i guess it's alright. I have a name that was often mis-pronouced, my name is Tan Geng Qin, and i'm a Singaporean! So say we all!... so say we all."

FOC ^^

The list is out ^^ Going for camp again after a year.. and everything seems familiar. Not too familiar i hope.

KUULA - the OG name.. wahahaha.. chim.

Nothing much to blog.. ^^

Forever

Who says nothing is forever? Sadly.

My New "Toy"

Spent hours with my new "toy".. aww.. so busy everyday trying to find something to delete.. whahaa.. and by the way, i've tried out the web cam.. it was so fun! Now seeking out more web cam users.. lol..


The Presario ^^


My Web Cam ^^

Oh ya.. discovered the great uses of Blue Tooth Technology. Sent photo to comp through blue tooth.. wahaha.. heard that printer also got blue tooth.. maybe mouse and keyboard too.. muahaha.. Next time, there won't be cables anymore.. all blue tooth.. maybe toilet flush also use blue tooth ba.. lol!

Work Day

Heh.. today was a work day for me. Yes.. i did say i didn't want to work for the holidays. But what harm will there be for a 1 - day event? LOL.. and to our surprise, the pay was good!

However, had to wake up early. Thankfully i went to sleep early the night before. Woke up at 5+ am to get ready. I had FOD to warm me up on the same week.. so waking up early isn't a problem for me..

Shared cab with a friend to marina.. but the lousy driver.. as if he did it in purpose.. we actually went to Farrer Road and then don't know to where.. i thought, there was a road called Thomson Road? The concluding fare was $13+ .. almost twice the amount if the driver didn't make a "mistake".. in my opinion, it there were so many "mistakes" that it seems impossible. If he wasn't the one dreaming, maybe it was me. So he said, "nevermind.. i know i took the wrong path.. you all just pay me $10 can liao..".. and in fact, we were paying for his "mistake".

So i went for the job without knowing what is was about. LOL.. i just heard, we are supposed to give out goodie bags.. and the quote i got was $60 for 7 hour. Hah.. and the while walking.. i realised something was weird.. i saw no. tag on a lot of people.. so i concluded that it was a morning jog of some sort.. but then as i went along.. i noticed that, there isn't any guy runners.. = =

It was in fact, an all ladies run... = = and i got a shock.. they are not the usual "fun" walkers.. not that of the BigWalk.. these are competitive runners. And their result? 30 mins or less for 5KM.. and less than an hour for 10KM. Wah..


The Event - ISHAPE Run'06.

The Flag Off for the 10 KM race.. okok.. i was standing very far.. lol.

Ofiicially an Official of the event.. ^^

And so, the whole event ended at around 2pm.. it was actually quite interesting to see how people worked.. and being through the SMRT Challenge as participants, and this as an "Official".. it was all great learning experience. Not to mention all events of SRC.

I can conclude. SRC really gives us a preview of what was going to happen.. and no 2 events are entirely the same. Same event will give different shit. Ask the Bazzar committee.. they will know. But i think.. the best part of today was, it was $20 more than what we had expected.. try to work that out.. and whoa.. haha..

Virus Alert!!

All msn messenger users take note: If you all receive any links that says something about posting some files of you and that user on the web, do clarify with the user.

Unsuspecting i was.. ok.. maybe i'm stupid.. sigh. The less then 5 hours old Presario tio virus.. lol.. strangely, virus are attracted to comps with anti virus.. lol..

So a bit sian la.. coz got to scan the laptop.. full of useless files.. but i don't know which are the useful ones. If not i sure reformat it de.. haha.. and then i wonder.. what will become of those hardwares inside?

Now i know the strengths of desktops. Too bad they still look quite bulky.. even without the 3 slot dvd drive.

I hate virus!

Yeah~!

Yeah~ i'm now using the Compaq Presario to blog.. muahahhaaa.. just beside my sis who is mapling.. = =

It was a rather rush decision, but what i said will be done. It's only a matter of time. Still getting use to using laptop.. still evaluating the AMD processor. Whether was it a gimmick, or whether the salesman can really talk well, i did asked about the difference before making a choice. After all, it's just another Apple and Creative question.

Ok.. so it cost me 1.4k for a 1.8 GHZ, 14" "brick".. but i rather pay less. LOL.. so it still left me with just enough to get the D820.

Well.. before i got numb from this 2.4kg of load, i'm already can't stand the heat emitted from this unit.. lol.. okok.. time to try out a bit more before blogging. I find it weird to type on this keyboard... lol..

I'm Not Only Stupid (I'm Stupid 3)

Okok.. today i'm not stupid anymore.. but then again, don't know why i tio.. This time round, they are looking for a guy with the FOD shirt named alan.. As it goes, they are looking for alan wong. But suay suay got 1 alan in my OG. And then my partner very quick witted and smart.. ask my OG alan to wear my shirt. = =".. tai li hai le.. Now i'm wasn't only stupid, i was naked as well.

And then one of them had a sister who came yesterday. So qiao.. same OGLs. No wonder when i said that i was stupid, he knew what i'm talking about. = ="

Today was great! Though started with a foul mood coz of insufficient sleep and the stupid traffic jam in almost every major road. Really very pek chek. But once assuming the role of OGL, things are different. So i say.. personality or what, you won't know its potential.

Maybe it has something to do with luck too. Depending on who is in your OG also. not to mention size. And hence, i salute my OGLs for Warlords. How can they manage an ice berg like us? LoL.. And perhaps, unity is the key to winning. No wonder we lost so many games yesterday.. hahaha.. ice not melted yet.

Didn't want to sell camp anymore.. coz they have hit the celling.. its up to the new batch le.. old birds old liao.. must go home and sleep early. All in all, i will have limited efforts in the club.

But maybe because of age.. maybe because of interest. Maybe because of influence, i'm thinking of joining YEN. LoL.. all because of the POEMS stock challenge. Wah.. but maybe not. I'm too old to be listed as a freshie.

Altogether a great day. I've learnt a lot.. and it really cheers me to see them acting so "noobishly".. haha.. getting to know new friends can sometimes be as difficult. No matter. The coming batch will still be on their own, nevermind the seniors. For, there will always be a line in my opinion.. and their world, is somehow different from mine. Don't really care if they remember or not.. so long as they move on from here, i guess we - Organisers, OGLs and GMs have done our job.. and of course, having fun in the process.

Going out for steamboat again.. wahahaa.. nice nice.. i want to grow fat.. but i'm stuck. Ok.. not really very fat.. maybe just 5 Kg more?

I'm Stupid 2

Oh great oh great.. i need a laptop. And fast! So much to do on the CPU on the move.. so much to do. Somehow, i began working on a stockcheck list.. and then i discover a grave mistake i did last year. Total stock was valued at twice the price. Now this time i got myself into deep trouble because i don't know how to use MS excel. Or should i say, i was rather careless. But then again, if i were to calculate using a calculator.. then why should i use a spread sheet. But something must be done for my mistake.. i wondered what. Perhaps maybe get a scolding or what lor..

Mom says no need to report.. but i still report to the village chief when he returned home.. maybe i thought i'm getting bullet proof le.. haiz.. but i just can't keep something like this a secret.. i study accounting.. and sales less cogs.. oh no.. i forsee a huge accounting problem.

Sigh.. when can i avoid silly mistakes like these? NS also the same.. dealt with inventory and got myself into trouble a few times.. now older liao still as stupid.

Wah lao.. still got contact list to do.. sian ah.. think i do tomorrow ba.. today is too "accident prone" day for me le..

I'm Stupid

Back from FOD. Thought it would be "easy".. haha.. but actually not really. See those sian face almost make me want to sian le. Especially those who never wanted to socialize. You can't do anything at all. But luckily as the day moves on.. some of the ice finally melted. Though some of them still freezes. But then again.. not that i don't care, but i rather save the forest.

So it came as a suprise that i took on a 30 people OG.. and it changes to 33 at some point in time.. lol.. i don't really understand. But the thing is.. if everybody speaks to the ant.. who can hear their name? Yet again, they came for the materials.. not for the orientation. Some really wanted to make more friends.. haha.. i can see, and i appreciate.

My partner xl is from YEN. And i can say.. i'm quite impressed. Hahaha.. and thankfully.. thankfully. Now i know.. YEN trained leaders too.

Oh ya.. by the way.. haha.. i'm stupid. Why? I got forfeited.. haha.. and then had to run round the grandhall shouting, "i'm stupid" I think i scared the OGLs from other groups. Hahaha.. strangely.. i'm not paiseh.. haha.. maybe i grow elephant hide le.

Overall nicely done for the excos~ Congrats! And congrats to us for having this keen eyes on
choosing.. ^^


Our FOD'06 shirt .. lol.. now i got so many colours le.. got yellow, red, grey, and now blue. LoL.. like maple bandana huh?

Glad that things are well. Although a bit disappointed at my performance.. but then.. it wasn't too bad.. haha.. so maybe tomorrow shall be better? And when FOC comes, it shall be all out. And perhaps, i'm not really that stupid?
