Wow, it's been 25 days since I last updated?

Okay, I'm gonna say a little something-something today then...just for the heck of it.

Had COC today at Khatib Camp...was pretty good. I must say the band sounded good today. The best I've heard in a long time...so it was quite enjoyable, doing this parade. Mind you, I don't usually like doing this kind of stuff, but this time I did.

I've been looking forward to Mondays lately! It's because on Mondays me and the guys do our dance rehearsals (yes, I'm dancing. live with it.) for January's D&D. Some of us even cancelled our off/leave just to come back and rehearse.

I really like rehearsing with them because they're a willing and dedicated bunch, and what's more, they're fun and enthusiastic too. It's really different from doing something with people who don't give a damn about how it'll turn out.

I never thought dancing to Sorry Sorry would be so much fun. It's too bad we're only doing a cut version of it, so it's like 1/5th of the original length.

Looking forward to finishing up Gee though. It does look a little feminine...okay very feminine. But I think anyone can pull it off if they want to! It's not really a dance purely for females so...yeah. haha.

Reflecting on the past few months of my life, I have to say that being posted to Band C was indeed a blessing in disguise (why is my life full of these?). The people there are really fun, and the atmosphere is really different in a good way. I can't believe I was so sore about being posted there in the first place. Now, I'm really thankful.

This is the first time in my entire SAF Bands life that I know I've found people I can click with; people who share my sentiments and interests and people with whom I can laugh like an idiot and feel good about it.

How sad; the fact that most of us always take the longest time to realize we've been given something worth cherishing. It's an omnipresent bad habit in we humans...

I haven't been gymming for a week and I feel so soft all over. My shirts don't feel as fitting anymore and it's getting on my nerves...I'll definitely have to pay the gym a visit tomorrow afternoon. No more putting it off!

My SNSD albums plus the Cinderella Man OST should be arriving within the next few days...I've waited close to a month for them! What a wonderful gift to give myself. I'm so happy heehee!

Mum's finally back from Aussie! I really need to find a day to go have dinner with her or something. It's been too long since I've had the opportunity to spend some quality time with her. Maybe next week...although there's so many things going on, I'm sure I can make time.

I have a feeling next week's COG is gonna be good! Percussion breaks should be interesting...Alfri did a very good job coming up with two arrangements for the Christmas songs so that should take a load off everyone's minds. I can only feel good about this, somehow. Aja aja fighting! COG confirm song gong! (I wish I could write that here in Korean)

So much for the short entry I'd originally intended to provide. Why do my entries always end up longer than expected? Oh well.

See you in another 25 days, perhaps!

Ah, tragedy. Why is it that I always enjoy a good tear jerker? Makes me sound like a damn sadist. The sheer morbidity of the idea kinda scares me.

Writing tragedy fiction is even more interesting...it feels kind of empowering; being able to bring out emotion in other people.

Talking about empowerment, tragedy is ten times more potent than happy fiction.

I guess it's because we humans tend to take happiness for granted, forgetting the happy moments in life soon after their occurrence, yet when our very devastation seems complete, it's a scar that lives with us for a long, long time.

And so, despite all that morbidity...tragedy seems to be my specialty now. How depressing.



"The entire world means nothing when in the end; death shall have everything taken from you."



"The rain has arrived.
The merciful, cleansing rain.
The sorrowful, solemn rain.
It has arrived.
To wash all the pain away."

How great and cruel is the irony of death;
In death, people say things they would never have said
In death, people reveal their deepest, most treasured secrets
In death, the most exceedingly beautiful things happen
All as if to mock the dying
All destined to haunt the living.
Always in the corner lurking,
Death lingers...waiting.

So depressing.


Oh yes, has any one seen a road barrier drift by on a torrent of water on Orchard Road before? I did just yesterday. Interesting stuff.


Great, now my font's all messed up.


Forget it.
