Can’t live without "you"

June 23, 2008 By: darylim Category: pure rants 1 Comment →

Well, bad enough i had to stumble on days where there are water rationing to be carried out.

Not so much of rationing but rather pipe works carrying out on my block that caused the temporary stoppage in water.

It was just like another day when i finished my night shift and zonked out on the bed upon reaching home. When i woke up to bathe, it was only then i realised. I was thinking, sometimes we really take it for granted. Turning on the tap and expecting water to be flowing out of it.

Talking about that, my Internet modem gave up on me the other day, giving myself a perfect excuse to get a new toy.

I was literally stoning at home the days without internet. It seems like having a computer is nothing without internet connection. Just like not connected to the rest of the world but on an island of your own. So sad.

Why are we so attached to this world. So much that we can’t actually be independent with the things around us, or is it just me.

3 more weeks.

April 13, 2008 By: darylim Category: pure rants 2 Comments →

Some anonymous people are asking me to continue blogging, despite knowing that most of the entries will be filled in with pretty much the same content as before.

Well, i have no idea who “chuks ugoji” is, though the comments look like spams, but somehow they make a little sense.

At this point of time, i have cleared all the possible tests and exams that SPF put in place for me. All i’m waiting now would be the long-awaited Passing Out Parade (POP).

That’s on the happier note, on the sad note, there’s still 3 weeks left. Which means that we will be having full 3weeks of POP rehearsals which is utmost boring because all you do is march and march. What’s worst is the standing still part, where moving an inch will cause one into great trouble.

With a mere 3 weeks left, it means that the squad will probably have another 3 weeks or so left too before being despatch to our new divisions and units. So, will the friendship last..

It’s interesting to see the varying kinds of people with different characters in NS. It’s one of the few chances wear people of different character.

One of the few that i can’t stand most are those who say and act differently. These are the people who are the most despicable, secretly doing things in the sly and make people think they are angels.

But sorry, in Daryl’s eyes, you are worse than crap.

Anyone wants to attend the Police POP parade. Details as follow.

7th May Home Team Academy

Time is TBC

 

Till then..

Trail of thoughts..

April 06, 2008 By: darylim Category: pure rants No Comments →

It’s great that the concert ended with a big bang, standing ovation. Marvelous.

Yesterday was probably one of the greatest day ever, in this year so far.

Thanks to all that made the effort to come down and support, though to some of you it might not be the best way you would like to spend the valuable Saturday away, but nonetheless you guys came.

Couple of minutes till i depart back “home”.

Till then..

Jumping failure

January 27, 2008 By: darylim Category: pure rants 4 Comments →

The reason for me being able to come back every Friday is because i passed my IPPT. But every week i do my IPPT, there would be a fear that i can’t do well in one of the stations.

All’s good but standing broad jump. It seems that this is the station that is obstructing me from achieving my ultimate goal in IPPT.

I merely passed with a distance of 216cm, quite discouraging though as the number has been there for almost 4 weeks while the other stations has improved gradually as weeks passed.

 

Station Grade/scores
Sit Ups 40
Standing Broad Jump 216 =(
Pull Ups 10
Shuttle Run 10.3sec
2.4 Km Run 10.42mins

 

Someone give me some good advices or tips to improve on it please.

Packed Weekends

January 19, 2008 By: darylim Category: pure rants No Comments →

Apologies for not updating. but the last weekend has really flown by in a flash. With most of the time attending band practices, and rotting at home.

Somehow i feel that my life seems to be stagnated water, with Mondays to Fridays doing the same thing in camp, coming out only in the weekends and to do those same activities all over again.

Well, at least i can have some form of activities, better than rotting at home sleeping and staring at the laptop.

It’s important for someone, especially in my context of myself to be kept busy. One thing that i can’t really stand is to idle around, not knowing what is happening around me and not to be informed of the next activity. Probably because of the fact that i have a higher level of curiosity compared to other people or whatsoever.

Having band practices consecutive on the 2 book out days is a little torturous,  it makes me feel like a lifeless soul.

Nonetheless, its better than not doing anything. I have no idea what i am rambling about though.

More Boring Life Updates

December 30, 2007 By: darylim Category: life in blue, pure rants, thoughts 2 Comments →

Time’s counting down to the new year, and to a shorter extent, to the time where i have to book in again.

I’m starting to understand the importance of education, though it greatly affects the brightness and the path of the future, it also shapes up the character sense in yourself.

Its irritating to put people from all walks of life together, only to be sabotaged by those people who don’t use their brains to think when they act. Obviously punishments come in the form of the famous “one for all, all for one”. But this is so unfair when there is really nothing that we can do about them.

Selfish people only think about their own personal fun and enjoyment at the instant of time, they do not regard the consequences that they will bring about to themselves, not to say for the people around them.

Having lived for almost 2 decades, it really sets me pondering what they have been doing all these years in their life, doing things as and when they wish.

-

After much training , i still failed my IPPT, standing broad jump, i will conquer that 9cm from you!!!

The prep course in HTA is going to end soon, hopefully life would be better when the fit squad people comes in.

I’m going mad polishing my boots and ironing my uniform, can’t believed i spent the whole afternoon doing that so faithfully, pray that the inspection tomorrow will go on smoothly.

Life Transits

December 25, 2007 By: darylim Category: pure rants 2 Comments →

This is where blogging comes in useful, when you have no one to hear the rubbish that you wishes to blabber. At least to a non-living thing, it will neither respond of give comments of your rubbish rattles.

This is the more emo passage of my life, with 2007 coming to a close in another 5 days or so, its good to conduct some self reflections about this things that i have achieved/not achieved in this year.

This year has been exceptionally fast and hectic, considering some of the more major events like SYF, A Levels, Enlistment.. The year really did past by in a flash, and the little moments to think of what to expect next of myself.

In the upcoming year, i’m expecting myself to accomplish some things.

I really hope i do!

Merry Christmas Folks

December 24, 2007 By: darylim Category: pure rants 4 Comments →

Its the Christmas Season yet again.

Whenever i think of Christmas, its the approaching of the new year, which is also the end of the current. The usual thought would be that school’s reopening and there’s ton of work untouched.

But having left school, all that’s left are the obligations for National Service.

Despite the differences, many things still remains as stagnant as it it.

People make mistakes and wrong choices and decisions in life, probably it’s because of all these  that makes what is called life.

Still pondering if all these are caused by the incorrect moves we take. It all happened with a cause, and mind that it comes with an ED and there’s not much we can really do about it at this point of time.

Arguably, there are no dead ends in life. Its the solutions that make tables turn around. Somebody provide me with some answers to my problems, to salvage the situation.

What a Christmas!

Life’s Miserable

March 31, 2005 By: darylim Category: pure rants, thoughts No Comments →

Its been long sinced i have last blogged here, due to some hardware problems that i have encountered and lack of funds. For the past weeks or days even, life’s..? Argh.. so so i guess, did badly for tests and other stuffs. Always had so much to thought of when i wanted to blogg, but when it comes down to the real bloggin, it doesn’t seem that there are alot of things i wannaa type here. Mayb is the fact that those things that i have thought of blogging i dun reallie wish people to see or know it. Its like a complete access to my poor little heart without a key. Somethings must still be kept a secret i guess.
Locking up myself , there are loads of things i wann a share, good ones, bad ones, but there aren’t many or should i sae not even one that i reallie feel so comfortable throwing everything that i feel, that i wish would happen that i want to do everything. No one understands me well, so well that i could trust and pour my sorrows to them. Waiting for things to happen, desperately waiting, but it just never happens.
Maybe i’m not feeling so bad now, immunisation has brought things to a complete lost of senses. Not that kind of touch i am feeling like before, the pain, the sore. Or do i enjoy the insainty i am feeling then, now? Or NEVER again? i wish…

Crap and more Crap

March 13, 2005 By: darylim Category: just passing-by, pure rants No Comments →

This will mark the start of the school holiday, mark the start of the month and counting down to SYF. Just had our band camp, two rehearsals at the Singapore Conference Hall. Not really happy about the results the we’ve came out of. Technically wise, maybe we’ve made our mark for it, but in terms of enjoyment and musically aspect. I think there;’s still a long way and look at the amount of time left. 30 days left. Can we make it?? YES of cos we’ll.. Its just how well can we soar. To aim and to be able to achieve the best in that we can do and produce. Is this the best now.. I truly doubt so.
There are still some idiots that are not putting in the effort. The kind of face, the way they act upon commands and the way they play tells a million word. Is it so hard for u guys to do it.
Went CS house for the night, supposed to go there to study, but in the end, all no mood, except for that Jiahao do his stupid chinese hmwk. Wad did we do, i think we just talk and talk, everything also talked about, and kept on disturbing jiahao and his hairless leg lol.. and watch some SARS show.. and sleep.. waste time, but nevertheless fun
Bought ZEN micro le, dun haf to go queue up wif gerald haha..

Thoughts

January 29, 2005 By: darylim Category: pure rants, thoughts No Comments →

After much sense of thinking, i realised i am real real selfish. I’m building my own happiness on someone’s misery. Though i might find it rather happy and nice about it, the feeling of another party might be completely different and bad. Its real creul of me if i am going to continue it like this, i do not have any right to control anyone. I cannot because of my own fun and happiness make another one suffer. Though it might not be obvious or its not show ing it out, i could just feel it.. I’m Sorry..

An act on the bus, not something that will occur daily

January 27, 2005 By: darylim Category: happenings, just passing-by, pure rants No Comments →

i experienced a fight at the bus lol, this old man suddenly went crazy and whacked this guy and they landed up in a fight and the whole bus had to stop and detain themselves while they wait for the police to arrive. Its just a dispute started when e old man hit the guyand it blew up so big. Initially i thought it was e rashness of the guy that started the whole thing, after knowing the whole situation, it was kind of diff to stand at the point of both parties. Somehow, i pitied the girlfriend that was standing beside him and see him beat the old man up despite she trying very hard to settle it calmy..

Why do people always want to take the hard way to settle things, why both parties take a step back and suffer a little so that it would benefits the majority rather then the minorities? must all things be settled under the violent and lead to some severe consequences that could be voided off easily.

Tummyache

January 13, 2005 By: darylim Category: just passing-by, pure rants No Comments →

Argh, this is the worst stomachache i’ve ever encounted so far in my life. i guess its because of me skipping meals and eating junk food as meals i think. There are much times where i’m so involved that i forget my meals or somehow i’m just too lazy to eat. Had runs and runs throughout the night and it does not really feels good though.

Had house council dis afternoon and Katat and Siva was elected Captain and Vice-Captain respectively lol..can say that they are so sway lol. The rest few of us like aline and me are jus in the council doing nothing lor. Dun think we will do anithing bahs. bwahaha. thats all for the day i guess, another boring day.

Parents

January 12, 2005 By: darylim Category: pure rants, thoughts No Comments →

School workload is increasing day by day and i could hardly do those work in the afternoon as i personally think that studying in the afternoon is not a nice thing at all because of the long day in school already and the weather and other stuffs. So i tend to slack a lil more in the afternoons, spending my time frutifully practising on my instruments. At least its not that taxing on the amount of brain juice that has to be squeezed. So i usually put my work at around 8pm plus, after dinner and some TV with my family. Most of the times, i will do till 11plus and 12mid and my mum is already getting kinda of pissed of with the time i sleep. She nags that i dun help with the household chores and stuffs. Truthfully, i dun actually spend much of my times at home and when i get home, its kind of late and stuffs. Life of student is really difficult to gauge by parents and the amount of concentration that has to be placed on work. To them, its just sitting down and listen to wad the lecturer has to say. Hates it when she nags when i doing my work, kind of really puts me off, disturbs my concentration level and merely increasing my patience and anger level. Quarrel and tried to debate with her about the kind of stress and situation, but its to no avail.

Mayb its really diff for her to manage the entire household, but shuldnt she kind of like think students arent leading any more comfortable life than wad they haf now? Rathe than any load on both side of the parties, creating a more tense up situation about the whole thing? Will it help if things were brought about upon in a proper manner or it would be the same? Task given and job assigned. Merely adding more stress to the overload stresing life we already have. May God Bless all:)
