OTTERZ

Either they have been trained really well by the zoo,

watched too much tv

or are just plain cute



i rmb the last time i went to the zoo, the otters were like the most exciting of all the animals...

things that are draining morale:
1. prospect of extending ($ or pink ic)
2. remaining duties
3. self-doubt on responsibilities as instructor
4. unknown number of exercises and atec

things that could help boost morale:
1. chillingsss...
2. looking forward to EUROTRIP!
3. friends and colleagues
4. jamming
5.

emotions are like stocks that go through the 4 stages (frankly this 4 stages are kinda bullshitty, cos if it goes down it will have to come up, otherwise the stock wun even exist in the first place)
stage 1: the pivotal point from a low/stagnant feeling
stage 2: the so exciting uptrend that you wish never ended!
stage 3: with nothing to feed that uptrend, it smooths out till equilibrium
stage 4: incoming rollercoaster downwards!

probably at, stage 3.9

UNMOTIVATED.NET

Alarm rang at 0520...

Hit the stop button

Alarm rang at 0525 (Ever since i was late cos of that few weeks ago, i always set 3 alarms 5 mins apart)

Hit the stop button

Alarm rang at 0530

Open my eyes, look at the time. My brain was frantically trying to find a reason to put me back to sleep, then suddenly it flashed an image of the OA message that approved my off on the 7th.

Brain: Aiya you are on off leh, no worries, just tell them you are coming at lunch time!

Me: ok set

So I texted a message to Jude, set the alarm at 10, then went to sleep...

Back in my dreams, I dreamt that I was using my OA account, and then I clearly saw the message with the "Your leave on the 7th has been approved..."

10 a.m., woke up...

feeling daaaamn shagged still, ah fuck it decided to just go tmr...

i tink such laziness is caused by the mass ord'ing personnel who provides a passive around throughout singapore... i wanna ord too =(

NOT NEGATIVE COMPLAINTS, THINK POSITIVE FEEDBACK

Never plan to fail

Plan to succeed, and plan for contingencies should your initial plan go haywire

Equally important are the rehearsals after your plan is up. In fact, rehearsals will bring up some unforseen problems in the plan and hence adequate contingencies

Nonetheless, success is a probability, as you can never rule out ALL POSSIBLE screw ups that can occur to your plan

Today I caused great inconvenience to others.

Failed to remember that I have an unreturned camcorder, causing my course ic to search for it frantically for the whole damn day. I simply assumed I returned it already. Even when I was told specifically that MY camcorder was missing, I just said I returned it to someone and clarifications be made with that guy.

Lil' did I know it was lying somewhere in the syndicate room and I had seriously forgotten to return it, no excuses.

SO, because of my assumptions, I made 2 staff and 1 captain worried for NO REASON. What if those 2 staff were on half-day off and I wasted half of the half of it? What if the captain is in a rush for an outing and actually missed it because of the camcorder?

Shall not take equipment and others things for granted ever. May the haunting guilt serve as a reminder!

u'r cute

TMR'S THE LAST DAY....AY....Y.....

Apart from the squirrels, I love my lake view from my bunk! especially when they turn on the lights at night, its very beautiful.

Loved the syndicate rooms, and the big cosmos... its this huge ass room with 3 big screens, very very conducive environment to learn stuff!

Its been so fun... especially with my syndicate! Going to miss every single shit in the past 5 weeks, probably the best times I would have as a nsf...

But all good things come to an end....

Congrats to all jan kids who are ord'ing in 4/5 days time

3 more months, push on... push on!

FATHERS BE GOOD TO YOUR DAUGHTERS, DAUGHTERS WILL LOVE LIKE YOU DO


Manage to get smuggled into dragonfly last night, was an outing for one of the filipino officers who was on course with us...

Its really really really funny to see all sorts of people dressed in blood dripping costumes and rotting make up, or scary plastic face masks. Saw one ang moh dressed with an iron on his head and holding an ironing board like wtf....

Then the waiters were dressed in old chinese costumes and face paint, wearing those china hats with the braid of hair at the back to look like a chinese vampire. Some even placed a yellow receipt on their foreheads to emphasise the dedication they made towards halloween! Killer to watch this chiang shi's weezing through crowds holding chicken wings, martell bottles and those board you use to collect bills (what are they called shit?!)

Dragonfly is far far faaarking cheeena! They do have like crubbing muzic but there is no designated dancefloor (its all round tables and chairs and 'older' people shaking around)... but drunk enough and you can enjoy the cheesiest of cantopops!

The guys ordered this bottle of martell that is, humongous ($890). Its so big it has its own pivotted stand to pour the beer and a special cap so you won't spill all over the fuck shop. And its smooth shit =)

The bands that played were cool, 3 bands in total. The kind of job I hope to try out when i ORD! And there were cheesy dancers to dance along to cantopop on stage, a best dress competition that lasted like 30 minutes... compared to like butter or future think i'll need to get confined two weeks in that place to climatise my self...

It was a good night, albeit the splitting headache and hangover Im experiencing now =(...

1 more week till end of course, and reality of work will hit me like a racing F1 car.

THEORY OF BLOG POST COUNTS AND THE DERIVATION OF EMOTIONAL VOLATILITY, PART 2


y = k[ e^(660-x) - z]

where,
y = number of blog posts,
x = days left in the army
z = days as a trainee
k = arbitrary factor

Conditions:
Non - ptp batch, 660 days is approximately the number of days a silver napfa test kid needs to serve (i forgot what we are called though, express?)
Trainee days are preetayye tough

You will get a curve that is in the negative for the days you are as a trainee because its in the assumption that there is not much time to blog, and the posts in the weekends are negligible compared to after passing out as a trainee. After the trainee phase, blog posts get more often, and as it reaches ord, it gets more and more and more, probably an exponential increase compared to the first day we stepped onto penguin boats to tekong.

This is evident in nathaneal's blog, and daniel's blog! (guess it will be evident in my blog too haha)

And in such a case, y = k(1) h

where
h = happiness level
k(1) = arbitrary factor of emotional volatility of individual (EVI)

EVI is how easily a person's emotions changes with accordance to changes in the external and internal factors. External factors would be like weather, interpersonal relationships etc, while internal factors would be like state of health, unconscious thinking etc.

An EVI <1 would suggest a person is emotionally stable, for instance, constantly happy or sad, irregardless external and internal factors. For instance, Yong Jian is a good example as Yong Jian always behaves like a Yong Jian irregardless if he is going India or doing DOO! (Or asking when we go for dinner, or looking for an FUP in the airport, you know, you know?) Handoko would be another exemplary, seldom see him very high or very low, very pleased or very pissed!



An EVI >1 would suggest a person tends to be emotional. An example might be Abel, whom I've seen very happy and very sad at times too! I would be another one, all it takes is a digimon reset and I can be put to tears (earning 50 a day?)



Not in anyway suggesting either category is better than anyone, this is just who we are!

Nonetheless, this is based on external responses assumed to be on par with internal feelings. For example, someone could appear very calm during times of trauma, hence we assume his EVI is less than 1. However, the someone might simply be controlling his emotions, when deep inside, he is feeling really really sad, sadder than someone who appears to be slightly sad or something. Hence, his Assumed EVI (AEVI) deviates from his Real EVI (REVI).

AEVI = REVI + k(2) (ETF)

where,
k(2) = arbitrary factor of ETF
ETF = Emotional Tolerance Factor

ETF is the ability and willingness of an individual, on an average basis, to control his emotional fluctuations due to external and internal factors.

Hence,

ETF = (AEVI - REVI)/ [k(2)]


---------------------- Assumed Emotional Volatility Factor - Real Emotional Volatility Factor
Emotional Tolerance Factor = -----------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------ Arbitrary factor of ETF


ETF = k(3) WTF

where WTF = what the fuck am I blogging about?

Haha anyway all those stuff above is all made up things from me should you in any case think I am quoting some real shit! Sorry for wasting 3 mins of your time reading it! (I wasted 30 minutes of mine crafting it, but its fun!)

Prettaye good at smoking out eh! =)

John Mayer's Heavier Things is, daa seckz!

Mouse Hunt is a really good way to stay awake during lectures by waking you up every 15 minutes!

hope i can re-apply into business.... or end up becoming an engineer or something =(
