WE ARE ANIMALS

Okay so I've decided to get back to blogging. I know. I know. I've said the same phrase over and over and over again. I also know that my last post was about me 'getting back in business'. HAHAHA. But no worries. Hopefully this will be the very last time I'll type that phrase. hehehe.

Anyhoo, my decision to start blogging again partly falls on the fact that Police life has been every bit mundane. It also serves as a distraction from online shopping/ shopping in real life. I know you're judging me right now. STOP. hehehe.

So what have I been up to lately? Nothing much. Let's see.

1) Still in NS :(:(

2) Still single ;)

3) Still skinny :(

4) hair on my head :D:D

5) money on my mind :X

Basically, I have not changed much.The Ammar you have come to know and love( heheh ) is pretty much just where you left him. Crazy and wacky.

In other news, I have reapplied for a new course in NUS.

I say 'hell no' to NUS SCI and 'hell YEAH' to NUS ARCHITECTURE!

The wait was killing me but now the wait is over, I am so over the moon! I count myself extremely lucky because this year was the first year they were accepting students based on grades itself without the need to sit through any aptitude test or go through any interview! (wow that was a long sentence). So give us all a minute for me to count my blessings!

Because of the Singapore General Elections, tomorrow I start work at 6am. Which means I need to be at work by 5am! MEH. But the bright side of it is that, I will be reporting off duty at 4pm!!! Happy as a mad cow, or what? Thank you Singapore and your need for democracy! Love you! Don't ask me who I am voting for cus I am still a kiddy and need not vote. yet. HEHEHE.

Which also means that I did not get the growth dividend! No money=sad face!

MEH. K pictures.

BACK IN BUSINESS!

Thought I'd get back to blogging since I am quite free now.

Life as a Police NS man is really, for the lack of a better word, 'slack'. But I am seriously thankful for that because I am a veh veh lazy person.

The last few days after we completed our tests and shizz were the best! They were so relaxing but such a HUGE waste of time.

I should have gotten MC but because I am a veh veh lazy person, I was not bothered to travel all the way to a polyclinic and wait in line.

Right now, I am enjoying my last few days of freedom before SYOG deployment. :(:(:(

If not for those brats whom need constant security, I would have passed out already.

However, I am kinda looking forward to it since I wanna walk a mile in the ~~shoes~~ boots of a REAL policeman. It would be an enriching experience. Furthermore, it would be during the fasting month, so it will really test my endurance.

I really wonder how the Iranian kiddos are gonna compete during this period cus of fasting and stuff. It must be really hard on them, having to train and all. RESPECT.

This must be a political strategy by Singapore to win the YOG. hehehhe.

Last Wednesday, I had my POC graduation dinner and expectedly, everyone was glamorous and enormously excited. The performances were enjoyable but at the end of the night, I was left a bit unimpressed? I thought they would get food from some high end caterer but obviously I was wrong. It was the shitty ISS/Stamford. And the MESS was a freaking SAUNA. Hello, we are not in CD. I guess I shouldn't have expected too much from NS events.

This above, is my Brunei friend who got fined for jaywalking!! ahahhahaha

In other news, my left eye has been nothing but bothersome the last couple of days. It is not sore eyes or anything. It is just really itchy and annoying.

Hence, to curb my habit of rubbing my eyes, I usually go to sleep.

So yesterday was epic cus I slept from 4pm till 11pm. And then I just could not get back to sleep. This has been the case for a while now. I usually take loooong naps in the afternoon and be awake at night all the way till 5 in the AM.

I need to readjust my sleeping pattern before my deployment cus I do not wanna sleep on duty! You know that you could be charged for that?? RIDICULOUS.

I have also been missing school life. Even the lessons. The other night, I had a dream that I was doing this super hard Math question and I woke up before I completed it and I wanted to go back to sleep so I could finish it up!

Yup, that is how bad I miss school!

I miss my friends and gossiping, all those nonsense, wasting time, being the cool kidzx on the ~~block~~ void deck.

I guess it doesn't help that I keep looking through old photos. I just feel so nostalgic lately. But, that could be due to sudden lack of activities that my mind has to occupy itself by digging into my past. Oh mind, why must you be constantly occupied?

In other other news, I am also broke! I only have 60$ in my account!! I freaked out when I saw the receipt! I should really stop buying clothes and ESPECIALLY pants!

Since the fasting month is nearing and during this period, muslims are encouraged to reduce spending, hopefully, my bank account would see some err.. prosperity by the end of the month! Also, instead of putting away 3/4 of my NS salary, I might only put away only 1/2 this month! hehehe. At least I am still saving.

Speaking of broken stuff, my thumb injury is not getting any better. It still hurts like a mother. Simple stuff like eating and brushing my teeth are a chore! I don't think that it's broken or anything but I hope it gets better REAL soon cus I am a veh veh lazy person and I don't wanna go to the doctor.

This has been a really long post.

Au revoir peepos!

These past few days have been CRAZZZY!

I know, I have been saying that a lot and considering that I am not working/ never worked, you guys must be wondering, HOW COME??
I also dunno sia!

Enlisting to POLICE soon and I am sort of excited.

*hahah so sorrz. This photo cracks me up!*

I mean, I don't really care much for these kind of stuff. I'll just go in and get out and then it's over.
But, I cant wait to make new friends, run and actually do stuff.

However, I am feeling a bit apprehensive cus I have yet to find anyone else enlisting to Police on 4 May!
I dont mind making new friends and all but it will help greatly if I know someone at least!
Well, I guess, I'll have to wait and see.

So, I am supposed to post some photos but they are still in my camera and I am quite lazy to upload them at this moment.
So, I will blog about Hockey n Lifeguard outings once the photos are uploaded.
Dont worrz(worry) too much cus I will totts(totally) upload them before I leave for NS life!

In other news, so sorrz(sorry) but I dont think I am up to do another movie/ TV review post. Totts not time for that.

But I will say that I am rewatching episodes of Joan of Arcadia!

I LOVED that show! Sadly, it was canceled after the second season just when things started to get more interesting!
I don't believe in all the 'what if god is one of us' stuff cus obviously He is much greater and powerful than all of us combined but it is a really good show with a 'moral of the story'. Something like Touched by an Angel, if you watch that show.

Anyways, the point is............
Don't you find it sad that such shows with good moral intentions are being replaced by air- head shows that only make society more corrupt and chaotic? Like what is the point of 'Sweet 16' and 'Teen Cribs' if only to make us jealous of frivolous lifestyles of the high society and changing us into materialistic snobs.

I admit, I do watch these kind of screwed up shows! But, that is only because they are the only shows left and they are kinda entertaining, in some ways, but isnt it like too excessive? Should'nt there be a balance? Cus from what I see, the scale is leaning wayyy too much on the wrong side.

Seriously, media peeps, you should like totts see what harm you are creating to the world.

Possibly worse than global warming! Even Tyra agrees! And she knows best when it comes to nonsense shows!

Wow. Dunno why im feeling so mathama ghandi. Something must have set off these emotions.
And I know my use of sorrz, worrz and totts are not helping me prove my point but I am a teenager afterall- my views don't matter.

Enjoy your week guys!

HALAL DILEMMA

There is gonna be a Lifeguards gathering tomorrow to send the NS boys off, which includes me I guess.
But I am soooo reluctant to go.
Not because I don't like to hang out with them, I DO! I REALLY DO!
I just don't wanna limit their food choices. I feel very guilty because I am the only Muslim and they usually have to cater to my halal needs. This is the reason why I don't go for LG outings most of the time.
I usually come up with excuses like deadlines and projects and tuition and stuff. I feel bad but it is better than making them eat something they might not like.
Sometimes when I do go out with them and they decide to eat at an unhalal place, I'll just go along but I usually don't eat anything or maybe just a small dessert.

Life is hard. But, it helps a whole lot that my friends are very understanding about my situation. I know they don't mind but I'll just feel guilty about it.

And I hate suggesting a place to eat because I feel like if the place is not good enough, they will be kinda disappointed? hahah.

SO SORZ GUYS!

But, I think I will be going tomorrow since I havent seen them in ages. I'll probably suggest a place and I am sure they won't mind. I'll just try to make sure that I don't feel guilty about anything! (:(:

ANWS,

I really enjoyed myself during the 2 class ~~outing~~ dinners we had!

During the first outing, me and Yuhui decided that we wanted to shop first before dinner. So we met up at 230pm and we shopped till we dropped until dinner time!! HAHAH I had all my purchases done within 10 minutes! True story. I am a fast shopper. Can't help it!
I got 2 12$ shirts, a 10$(!!!) pair of pants, and a 20$ cardigan.
So satisfied with my purchases!

Then it was off to meet the rest for dinner at Fika Cafe.

The food was good. It was no doubt incredibly filling but it was average, I guess? Ive tasted better food! But generally, it was okay for a halal swedish restaurant.

I had the swedish meatball ( no pork, beb!)

After dinner, we were sort of aimless and just like stood around outside the station shit chatting until it was late and then went home.

During the next class outing, we watched KICKASS! Well, it wasn't really a class outing cus there were only 5 of us. But we invited the whole class and only 5 could make it so I guess it is still considered a class outing since the initial intention was for the class to hangzxz.

So Kickass was badass! Didnt really understood why the movie was M18 but all was revealed once we watched it! hehhehe.

It was gruesome and violent with a touch of comic relief. It was definitely better than I expected. Worth my 6$!

Afterwhich, we had supper at Coffee Bean at 313. We had the warm chocolate cake and some butter coconut marshmallow thingy!
I LOVE THE CHOC CAKE! As much as I don't really like chocolate, the cake was really good!!

I am so glad that my new camera can take disco shots just as well as my sony!! HEHEH

Okay, gonna watch Fringe! TV reviews soon!!
