POP LO!

Ah yes, finally the time has come for my computer to be revived! But I digress (in my opening line at that). So 'A' level results are out, Tekong (Since Word gives me a spelling error, for those who don't know, Tekong is where all young Singapore men and some women go.) is out for now too and let me say it just once more. POP LO!

A levels were well, given my great prioritization skills, studies never figured highly on my list so the fact that I don't have to re take my 'A's or fret over getting into University is saying quite a bit. Nevertheless, it could have been better but I'm not complaining especially since my 2 years in AC have well quashed a lot of pre perceived misconceptions that I've had about that institution. Well not that it has come to pass; I shall let it remain in the dusts of my memories where it'll well, collect dust. And then there's that thing about University application which I don't understand. Why must we pay 10 bucks or 15 if you're aiming for that slightly cooler but with limited choices University. The Universities claim it's an admin fee but since everything is done online, what other admin is left? In secondary school and I remember this CLEARLY, appealing to CERTAIN institutions required a fee of 10 bucks. That I could understand because the school was trying to make a quick buck. Lol, not really but because there was lots of paperwork to be done. And that 10 bucks wasn't refundable either. Looking back I should just have bought some spray paint cans and newspapers and lighter... Damn. So today is 20 March 2008, and I've another 10 days to procrastinate my University application. Whee.

Now on to my POP. Yes I know it's slightly late but it was memorable nonetheless. I must say I'm glad I didn't cough chao keng (Hokkien for skive) for once. And to make it slightly more memorable, I've decided to upload (a) picture. Yes you read that right; it's no grammatical error because I am going to upload a single picture. LOL. And it's not some stupid smiley face picture because I'll leave that to the thousands of other blogs out there to do the honor.




For me, I'd only break my tradition and post this single picture because it does mean something to me. See, for once in my life, I actually passed out of something happily. To my commanders and damn it you guys ever find this, thanks for the 3 months (of hell). Appreciate it because everyone says unit life can only get worse. And that can be all I can say about BMT, because I've been warned yet again not to speak about training outside of training. So suckers, if you want so find out more, sign on lor!
