well well

Ok.. trying to kill time now, so I can start rushing back to camp for OCS Commissioning Parade later on... Ha~ But one look at the weather outside, all I can say is, good luck cadets.. you may not get your parade after all! Mwahahaha~

"Oh, the weather outside is frightful
My heart is so delightful
And since we've got parade to siam
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain~!"

Ok, I shouldn’t be so mean.. So many of my platoon mates are commissioning today. Ensign party, there’s Gerard, Contingents, there’s Boo, Ah Lim, Kevin, Edric etc (lots more that I din see), and Parade Commander, Zhonghan (Wah, still as zai as before.) And Jianyun!! Sword of Honours wor~ Dun play play!! Way to go man! (Hey TCHS & HCCO juniors, he’s a great great grand suona senior!)

Not exactly looking forward to going back today.. cos after we’re back from OCS, everyone will be heading home for their off-in-lieu on Monday.. leaving me alone cos I have HQBO duty on Monday. What luck~ >.< But on a brighter note, I get to keep my off though.. Yet again, what good is an off when all your friends are not free??

Well, kinda bored now that I have finished my entire job already. BHCO's concert had finally come to an end, which largely translates to the end of my sleepless nights and burnt weekends spent rushing publications, making amendments and tossing and turning over possible ramifications of certain oversight on my part regarding certain aspect of my design. Whatever it is, the dust should have settled by now.. I can only hope for the best. And a million thanks once again to Hansheng, who has selflessly loaned me his camera on several occasions… I literally would not have been able to do what I did without his help. Thanks!!

Disclaimer: The following para is going to sound super ego.. but that is not going to stop me from posting it.. hee hee.

On the day of the concert itself, me, being the photographer for the event, perched myself high up amongst the audience seats and waited for the concert to commence. That is when a group of NTU students seated themselves next to me. I was sipping water from my Adidas water bottle (thanks Yanxin) when I overheard this from a couple amongst them:

Guy: (Flips through programme booklet) Woah, they really willing to spend lar. Can afford to make their programme booklets until lidat.

Gal: -Silent-

Either she’s too soft spoken or she’s a cool nonchalant chick.

Guy: (Flips to page of soloists) Wah kao! Still got money to take make-over shots!!

I am so on cloud nine~ trying hard to not to choke on my water and spurt rite into the head of the guy before me.

Guy: Let’s go for make-over shots together one of these days..

I was so so so damn tempted to turn around, introduce myself and tell that fella that I’m the one who did it.. ha~ But, that’s pretty much equivalent to me confessing that I have been eavesdropping their conversation.. And so, I abstained myself.. from talking to them... or floating up into the acoustically treated ceilings of SCH. I guess it’s stuff like these that you hear, which are not really said to you that really makes your day.. and give the impetus for any designer to continue their otherwise, low profile, behind-the-scene job.

Ok ok.. must stop my rambling le.. Jansen giving me a lift to camp~ Yeah! So, tata for now!~

P.S Negoki and Weng said my fonts too small.. happy now?? :)
