Last Day of 2009

It is finally the last day of the year 2009.

It was truly a year filled with mixed feelings. With so much things that I had went through in just one year, I can't determine whether I should be disappointed, happy, or just be sad that this year is coming to an end.

So much stuff had happened, that I had even turned too lazy to blog about them. ~_~

Oh well. Anyway, I am about to start the year 2010 with a bang! - By going back to Tekong for my recourse BMT for another 2 months *woo-hoo~!*

Gahhh... I really hate that island.

Makino Yui's concert in Singapore!

I was out virtually the whole time yesterday, attending my good pal's wedding as one of the groom's men. Quite a number of things happened, and with the photos only coming on a later date, I will just leave that subject to blog about another day.

So while I was out, a letter specifically addressed to me came slotting into my home mailbox. Now, the last time someone sent me a non-digital envelope was from the government sector. And that I wasn't pleased to receive.

Fortunately this time round it was from someone called "EXCEPTional" - god knows who they are, but I sure do know what the content inside was...

*drum roll ensues*

MAKINO YUI'S SINGAPORE CONCERT TICKET!!!

(more information on Makino Yui here)

...Honestly speaking, I actually all but forgotten about this ticket purchase. This ticket I am holding is priced at S$79, with $2 booking charge, and $1 mail fee. I wanted to save that $1 mailing, but even collecting it from booth cost a dollar... seriously, what the heck?

My seat (row) price is under the second tier range, while the most expensive cost $99. I like Makino Yui, but as of now, only Mizuki Nana will get me to buy the first tier seat.
Still, to actually make me spend money on a ticket (2nd tier too!) just goes to show that Makino Yui is pretty high up in my personal chart.

Phew, it is a good thing I bought that Makino Yui's cd album on the recent Japan trip. It was a freaking last minute impulsive purchase too, because something inside me kept urging me to get it. Never in the world did I foresee that the real person would actually come to this island, so darn lucky I got the cd for her to autographed it.

Here I come, 26th Dec!!!

Gonna have to leave it to the next update...

Been very busy with life.

There's now a big backlog for blog updates. The Seoul/Japan trip, AFA'09, WeiB Schwarz outings etc. And not to mention many more events to come.

*sigh* I will just have to leave them for another day.

Now I shall proceed to booking in once again.

NS sucks - weekends are just not enough!

I am so freaking busy lately. There is just so much things I want/need to do, and most of them can only be done OUTSIDE of camp. Which is how today's post title derived from. NS sucks - and it is literally sucking away almost all my weekdays free time!!

Or maybe it is just because I got poor time management skill. =_=

Nah, I will just simply blame NS. It sounds cooler.

Anyway, I went out with a few dudes that I only met for the first time yesterday, to watch the Evangelion 2.0 movie - "You can (not) advance". It happened that I recently got myself involved in a small anime group in the Mindef forum, and they then invited me to join them for their movie outing. So I was like "Why not?" and hence went along. =P

Pretty entertaining episode, and much better than the first movie. Probably because I watched this in the cinemas, unlike the previous one where I caught it on a really small tv screen.
I won't say much, go read the bazillion reviews out there on the net if you interested. And check out the trailer that I have attached after this sentence.



The guys from the Mindef "anime club" were a bunch of interesting people. I haven't actually id all of their faces and names yet, so maybe more future group activities and I will know them better.

I was saying that I wanted to post about my Seoul/Tokyo trip. Yea, I will do it on the next post, I promise. I got the photos ready, but didn't want to clash with this article. Let me do it this coming friday.

Back to Singapore and NS

Finally, after a 8 days trip to Seoul & Tokyo I am back home. Was supposed to return on Sunday, but had to overstay by a day as the initial plane was packed.

It was a typical trip, for mostly the Japan segment, with tons of shopping and eating. I haven't actually started unpacking my stuff, so I will throw in the photos and describe my trip in more details on a future post entry.

Gonna report back to camp soon. Hmm, strangely, I actually missed that place a little... but it still feels like a chore just to book in. ~_~
