I GUESS I'M FINALLY GOING HOME!!!





oh gosh, just a blink of an eye and i've been in tamworth for a month already. i must say it's really been an eye opener for me cos i got to experience many new things. but nonetheless, i'm going home probably on wednesday? provided they got the tickets for me because it's like the peak period now so tickets back are really scarce. urgh.



caught new moon yesterday with ET, CS and Lta Nicholas. it was quite a good movie i must say and as all the girls have already suggested, Rob Pattinson and Taylor Lautner are as hot as ever. haha. but i think Kristen Stewart's character's a tad bit emo. and i'm still confused as to how a girl could switch lovers so easily. haha. but that's just my personal opinion so please ignore me alright.



damn! i typed out a bunch of stuff and it just got erased cos there was something wrong with the internet. guess i'll just have to save it for another time! ciaos~

hello world!~

well well, today's the second day without the bunch of guys around. only 4 of us left here. i guess life's much more boring without them. no more shouting across rooms, no more chomping on food together, no more mass gaming sessions, no more huge pizza deliveries, no more movie sharing, no more monopoly games and the worst of all, no more company.

i'm starting to miss people like zander, captain alvin, alan, etc. they're like brothers to me cos we went through a lot of crap together. and now they're back in singapore, probably enjoying themselves before they proceed on to their respective units, i wish we could still meet up and have a good chat when the rest of us get back.

till then, take care people. all the best in whatever units you guys are posted to. good luck and god bless! =)

hey guys! it's been exactly one month since the last update! been so busy for the whole of this month due to the air grading course. well, as y'all know i've been posted to airforce recruitment centre (afrc) as a flying experience program trainee. but actually all we did was just slacking all day long. =x it was nonetheless a wonderful time for the friends that i made and some that i got closer to. thanks everyone who took care of me and gave me guidance!

next, 10 of us went over to airforce school to prepare for our air grading course in tamworth, new south wales, australia. we were there for 2 weeks and things got excited for us when we first got our flightsuit and all the equipments for flying. so happy! we've learnt new things together such as 'mental flying' whereby we sorta imagined that we're flying an aircraft and we tried to rehearse all the checks and procedures that we needed to perform. though it was generally quite boring but we still managed to bond as a group due to the common goals that we share.

finally, the day came on 8th november 2009 where we got ourselves ready to board our flight to sydney. it was my first time taking SQ and i was lucky enough to get on board the A380 airbus! well, i can only say that the 8 hour flight was worth every penny the airforce paid for us! haha.

landed on sydney and had so much fun! though it wasn't my first time in australia, i still felt a little weird seeing so many angmohs around me. we took lotsa pictures during the 4 hour transit time there and finally boarded the plane to tamworth! it was a small plane and i think there were only like 50 passengers on board? quite interesting though. haha.

the first week was quite relaxing but there were alot of lectures to go through. we were really slacking our asses off then we immediately felt the pressure during the second week because there were so many things that we didn't know! i can only say that flying is an amazing thing to do because my instructor Mr Jerome Wong did some aerobatics during my first flight. fortunately i didn't puke at that point of time if not i wouldn't know where to hide my face in. haha. but during halfway of the course Mr Jerome went on leave and the deputy in command of air grading centre Major Cliff Chua took over as my instructor and i gotta say, i couldn't get used to the change in teaching style and yup, my results sufferred as expected. =x

OH! before i forget, we celebrated ten years of partnership between the agc and british airservices engineering (bae). bae is actually the maintenance contractor for us and there were some really nice people around. there was a dinner at the base's function room and we played a part in the success of it too! i was tasked to perform 3 songs with 3 other guys and i was glad that everyone liked our performance! the whole event was a great success and we really enjoyed ourselves.

bookout times are the best during our stay here because we get to enjoy free time and a trip to town! haha. our instructors Mr Jerome and Mr Gabriel Lim would bring us to some damn good restaurant to enjoy superb food that's damn big in portion! we totally died after finishing everything on our plates. haha. okay, i think i'm quite insane to have the courage to try camel meat and crocodile tail! gosh! can you imagine? haha. but actually it's not that bad cos the camel tasted like steak and the croc tail tasted like cuttlefish. LOL. but yeah, i think i wouldn't give it another go. too extreme for me. haha.

and today i just failed my 3rd flight which means i'm going home!!! including me there were 7 who failed and now there are only 3 person left. wish them luck!!! =D and for the 6 of them who failed, there get to go home next tuesday! so i'll be left alone for a few days to wait for the next guy who fails to go back with me. -.-" can't wait to go home!!!! urgh~

tomorrow would be the last book out we'll get to enjoy as a course and i would definitely treasure it as much as possible! AGC 12/09 would forever remain in my heart for the best memories we had in flying and the fun and hardship that we enjoyed and suffered together. thanks everyone! love you guys! =D may we meet again soon!

hello world! haven't been updating for quite a while now so i guess it's time to catch up!

well, heaven has been really kind to me ever since BMT. i got the chance to be posted to CMPB as a Flying Experience Program trainee where all i had to do were just some admin work and a lot of slacking! they even organised two joyrides with the youth flying club for us to let us gain experience on how flying a smaller aircraft is like. i also have to say that i made many great friends there and if i were given a chance, i wouldn't wanna leave them.

however sad it may be, i still had to go because i had already signed on as a pilot trainee and today was my second day in airforce school. though it's still 8-530 everyday but we had been doing tonnes of check ups and x-rays to prepare us for australia next month. oh, talking about australia. i'm going to tamworth, new south wales next month to fly planes! haha. it's called the Air Grading Course. hopefully i won't get chopped and stay there for the whole of 6 weeks as the instructors are gonna assess on the VERY limited flying knowledge that we have. i heard the passing rate is only a pathetic 20%, so pray hard that i pass!!!

we're gonna get our flight suits tomorrow and i can't wait!!! hopefully i can post some pictures of me in it really soon!!! so wait and see, people! =D wish me luck!

posting results were out on friday and guess what i got; FEP Trainee!!! haha. oh right, for those who didn't know what is FEP Trainee, it means Flying Experience Program Trainee. basically i'm just gonna go to tamworth australia for 2 months to fly an aeroplane! if i pass then i can sign a contract with the RSAF and become a pilot trainee.

SOOOO....PLEASE LET ME PASS!!!!! haha. but in the meantime, i'm just gonna report to the airforce recruitment centre at cmpb to wait and do nothing everyday! haha. i'm so lucky! YAY!

I AM OFFICIALLY DOWN WITH FEVER! urgh. the feeling suck big time. it's like you're feeling groggy 24-7 even after sleeping like the whole day? and my head's so heavy that it's pressing on my eyeballs which in turn is making my eyeballs pop out! i hate to be sick! dang!!!!

woo! i feel like a fat pig now! have been eating macs like almost everyday. tried both the mega mcspicy and mega mac and drank like TONNES of coke! coupled with late night suppers and 5am sleeps, urgh..i feel kinda groggy now. i think i've fallen sick.

still waiting for my blisters and abrasions from the 24km route march to heal so that i can go and RUNNNNNN!! i needa run badly man! if not i'll become fat again and that is a definite no-no. so let's hope that my wounds would be a good boy and heal faster. haha.

went to queensway shopping centre yesterday with weicai, weilun and got myself an adidas bag! i personally feel that it's damn nice! haha. it's only $79 from Limited Edt. =x after which we met up with hairul and alvin at comex. sorry for neglecting you guys!! i'll make it up, i promise! =)

home after that for a short rest until gary called to go play pool at bukit timah at 10plus pm. i didn't know that 4 guys could have so much fun playing pool because during the whole time, weicai was practically spouting all the nonsensical stuff like 'SLAYERS!~ i'm from SLAYERS~'. yup, he's crazy. haha. supper at Al Azhar after that, got ourselves some prata and a murtabak and now i've like a super bad sore throat. and i feel feverish. damn. please, i need to sweat it all out! haha.

okay, i'm running late already!! meeting weicai to go SP today cos he needa return some dvds from the library. oh no! the weather doesn't look too good. think it's gonna rain soon. and i needa go prepare already! till then, ciao~
