Day 12

Woke up an hour later, dad sent me to camp! Had breakfast, then started work. The usual. Do work, find a hiding spot to chill, work, go to bunk for a nap. More work and voila. Work's done.

Came home, watched TV and stuff. Came out of the shower and Janet called me for PT. Sure why not. Just came out of the shower though. Hahah.

Mcshag yo!

Half way through, my lower back started hurting. Quite painful in fact. My muscles were cramping or something. They're kind of still sore now. But I guess it'll probably be less pain as I grow stronger. Motivation!!

Happy. Rewarding. Tired. Mcshag.

Day 11

So I didn't take mc today. Perseverance ftw! Worked with 2IC on how he wants bravo coy to be run. Need to work on his speech tomorrow. Upperstudy woke up late, went up to bunk and slept without informing anyone. No one knew he was in camp. OC went to have a word with him *secretly happy*. I mean like come on, it's about time he deserved something.

Didn't go for a ride with janet in the end, she went climbing! Well, I went for a run with my parents! Well, to be honest they didn't actually run. But proud of them nonetheless! Yay parents!!!

Day 10

Woke up around 1pm today. Went for lunch with family then headed to airport. I thought I was late. Turns out I ended up waiting for an hour haha. Went to suntec afterwards with Trent, Janet and shuk. Shuk and I went all hobo while they were collecting their sundown marathon race pack.

Met up with Stanley and Ernest in the end for dinner. Omg awesome sushi. Drank the grey goose at Janet's void deck. Not bad uh. But thanks for the present!!

Still contemplating to mc or not tomorrow. Dread going to work and facing fucked up people. But if I don't, the work keeps piling up. Decesions decesions.

Freundschaft

Thinking back, I've never had a friend like janet. Someone whom I truly care for. This feeling is strange. I've never felt the urge to ask how a person's day was and to know how they're doing before. Not even love interests.

I don't know why, but it feels right. It's like I feel she's my sister, my best friend. Someone who I know I can count on to be there for me when I'm down. Someone that I won't hesitate to be there for as well.

I enjoy the time we spend together. I hope this friendship continues even if our habits and lives changes.

She's such a wonderful person that's been through so much. Too much in fact. She's such a strong individual. I'm not talking about her physical strength. It's her inner strength that leaves me in awe.

If you're reading this janet, know that I'll always be there for you and that I'll try my hardest to make sure you don't feel down. But if you do, know that I'll be there to comfort you and cheer you up!

Thank you janet. For making me happy, feel wanted and cared for. You're the best friend I've ever had and I treasure this friendship like no other.

Danke.

Meoww!

Day 9

Went for lunch with dad and sis today, dad sent us off to the mrt station even. Sis had to go to school for studies and I went back to sp to build a tank.

Washed off the releasing agent off the resin parts, painted an ork for JZ. Man. I paint it better than I paint my marines.

Had dinner at tiong bahru and had dessert. Had chilled egg pudding with ginger. Awesome stuff.

Went back to godma's house to spend some time there since parents were there playing mahjong. Well I miss the dogs too. As loyal as you can get.

Why can't we be more like dogs? Unconditional love, and expect little or nothing in return. Wonderful creatures.

Janet, and friends coming back from krabi tomorrow. Not sure if meeting at airport though. She doesn't know her flight number. Bah.

On a side note, lost some weight. Just about 2kg worth of fats gone. Yaaaaay! But feeling fat from the past few days of not exercising though.

Not going back

Bumped into a clubber on the way back home. He was on his way to zouk. I forgot it was Friday night. Duh.

He was surprised that I wasn't clubbing tonight and asked me along. Tempting. But after thinking through, I don't want to go back to that lifestyle anymore. Going for the sake of going. Trying to be happy while getting high. I've learnt this past week that happiness doesn't come from that. For me at least.

He didn't seem to understand why I didn't want to go. Kept saying it was bull and nonsense. I don't blame him though. Age gap perhaps.

Maybe I'll go again next time with the right group of friends.

Spot me in the photo.

Day 8

Self declared half day off from work today. Took a nap for an hour or so in bunk even.

Came home, showered and changed. Left the house and headed for school. Since I had some time on my hands, why not try to finish up the bearguy? Don't wanna do it too last minute.

Went to clubroom and started painting. Familiar and new faces around. It's nice to hang around the clubroom again. I miss those times. Shared some army stories to the guys that were gonna enlist soon.

Had to separate the parts into individual pieces for painting. As this is a posable model and the parts move. So I couldn't paint it like how I paint static figures and tanks. Stuck it onto satay sticks for easy painting.

Managed to paint finish before we packed up. Needs a little touch up though. I'm afraid of paint chips and scratches, the original yellow colour showing through the blue would be horrendous. I hope I applied a generous amount of clear coat. Let's hope it's enough to protect it, yet not too thick that it chips easily. Fingers crossed.

Feel like writing a happy birthday note or something on the back of its head. We'll see how it goes.

The final product is blurred as I still want to keep it a surprise. Unveiling will be in a month's time or so. Keep waiting!
