Did HQ-BO duty yesterday yet again. *Ding* HQ-BO: Headquarters Barrack Orderly. A duty which consists of answering a phone in the headquarters office (which seldom rings) (and when it does, it's only somebody from the band asking abt trivial matters), sleeping and trying to find something to do when u're not doing any of the mentioned tasks. *Ding* So, yes, i did HQ-BO duty yesterday yet again. but, ok, to console myself, it's my first time doing on a Saturday and because of this duty, i get to earn half day off. *smile* my only motivation.

hadnt been resting for quite sometime. had been using yesterday to stay away from my usual working buddies (ie band a mates) and rejuvenate from the endless parades we're forced to take part in. *ops* i din it in a negative way, jus that facing the same ppl for almost 24 hours 7 days a week can be very very sian. like there's almost nothing to talk abt sometimes, and hav to cock up with trivial and lame matters to talk abt sometimes. now, can ppl actualli blame us for being so bitchy and gossipy? haha... wut to do? we're forced to become like that. keke.

anyway, supposed to talk abt my HQ-BO duty. did it with 3sg hafiz and cpl hafiz. hafiz hafiz. oh my, i felt damn weird when i say "sergeant hafiz, hafiz is *where where where*" or "hafiz, sergeant hafiz is doing *wutever wutever wutever*". even chief was like "u're doing with who? which two hafiz??". but (dun noe whether to say) luckily, cpl (clarinetist) hafiz was involved in ndp and so most of the time, it was only 3sg hafiz and me. less confusion.

got to know a new clerk, Arthur, who is ultra gossipy oso. haha. perhaps due to the fact that he's now the new Band A clerk and yet doesnt know much abt us. so we started gossiping and gossiping abt the specs, abt the ppl and so on. den clerk gavin joined in (with me being reluctant, but heck, i needed the gossips), and we started gossiping abt other ppl in the saf bands too. haha. all these time, (sergeant) hafiz was playing table tennis with ken and the rest of the clerks in the gym. good (as in dun need to talk much to hafiz coz i dun wan). haha.

brought my "The Caves of Steel" by Asimov to read. bought it like 3 years ago and i havent got the chance to finish it in one reading. finally, with all the free time yesterday, managed to finish the book. quite good, quite interesting, esp the concept being it. altho the plot had a predictable twist in the end, the whole plot expanded really wide. in the end, the book isn't only abt the murder of the spacer, but abt the conspiracy behind all this, which, in a sort of cliche manner, lead to the notion of us realizing the need to save the environment. oh well. it cant be made into a successful movie. that's that. so, after this, i'm still not particularly interested in watching "I Robot". haha...

tried to study trigo last night after coming back from the white house. wa, lost a lot of my knowledge liao. terrible. hopefully i can regain all these information and skills before this coming wednesday. or else, *jiak lak* how i teach... *gosh*

decided to come back home to touch my comp. haha. missed my comp. felt good to be typing non-stop this way. *scroll up* wow, i must be really deprived from typing sia. suddenly i typed so much rubbish stuff. haha. will be going down for the ocs actual parade, which (hopefully) marks the end of having to take a bus to another camp for a parade almost everyday. upcoming parades: COG main and colors parade. looking forward to a really enjoyable tanning session.
