Sunday Night Report: Very, very late update

I’m SO SORRY GUYS! I really am stoning just now and not knowing what to do (I’m even browsing icons) to see that I have not posted this week! OMG! But I want an early night, as it’s important for the rest of the week (especially tomorrow morning), so… we make this quick, okay?

ANIME
Kokoro Connect – Firstly, I think it’s good how they ended the previous arc, and continue the present one now. But impulse random may differ from personality random, you know. At least there isn’t the switching of bodies, so I wouldn’t be too confused now? The new ending is great, another Team Nekokan production. Haha can expect two more Ending Themes from them~ (ie. 2 more arcs, which means full 24-episode season?)
Binbougami ga! – Well this show is just much of jokes, as Ichiko gets even cuter along with the seiyuu (Kana-chan~) and tries to get back to normal. Touching stories definitely more effective if I write immediately after the show. Heard the full songs of the theme songs… they are okay. I found out HAPPY BIRTHDAY is a little extreme in music style and Piko is too extreme in music style. He… yesh it’s a “HE”, since he has a wide pitch range to be called “dual-voice”. Really, I didn’t get attracted to this artist, proving me straight in gender…
Tari Tari – As far as I can remember it’s good, and Wakana has found reason to remember and forgive her mother, who wonderfully – as a composer – left a song for her to sing, or the choir team lah literally. Means we get a good soundtrack. Haha.
Hyouka – The Kanya Festival is picking up, with coincidences happening and people not finding out who is Juumonji… we need an answer? The Opening came as a single this week, and it’s… Kodama-san is just good at writing lyrics, ok?

MUSIC
I’ll be straightforward: 4 singles, only half heard. Even ClariS who are due next week is faster than negoto and HOME MADE Kazoku. Haiz, I duno. I wanna hear the songs, yet it does not appear. (Audience: Buy lah…) Haha that does not motivate me to do that, not for now… I also heard VELTPUNCH’s Best Album and gave it the… the best review I can ever have: 5 songs into this year’s list, breaking the exception to keep a collection of the artist. Keep on the good work, VELTPUNCH! Haiz. 4 more singles next week; they better appear the next time I book out. Which is like…

Eh I guess that’s all. I swear I’ll take some time to update next week. Today leh I spend half an afternoon just getting to Beach Road to get my formation badges sewed, so I just forgot this post. Cya guys soon then, I’ll update soon. I hope I’ll get the mood to write APoL: I really need to get on because you guys are interested what happens to Sacchi, RIGHT? (Audience: YEAH!!!)

[P.S.: Thanks for the cooperation. Here’s the reward, as promised. (Audience: Thanks~) Haiz living in the corporate world…]

Friday Afternoon Report: APoL Status

I can officially say that APoL is ON HOLD. Since… I don’t think I have the time to do it. Army life is getting hectic (with the recent series of events before this break which is going to be over by Sunday) and is making me diverge from my original plan of taking inspiration from it. Experience in camp is much more than just writing everything down, anytime I like. Seriously. But then I shall reconsider, since reallocation of vocations has been done, I’ll be moving on to my Specialisation course next week. We shall see by then, whether I can still take out a pen and notebook to note down anything that comes to mind.

Until the next chapter of APoL… well I guess you guys will just have to wait. I need a breather, especially with all the headaches and all…

Saturday Afternoon Report: Nothing But Experiences

Let’s be quick from here. Or rather, let’s be slow from here. I want to write this post as detailed as possible.
Before I begin, be reminded that I’m going back in a few hours time, and am coming back by National Day, so I’ll update about my Entertainment News till then with next week’s stuff. Now, let’s see how much of information I can divulge here…
CLASSIFIED
Tuesday – I went back to camp, and after a bad nights sleep woke up with an upset stomach (must be something I ate on Monday afternoon… not the Filet-O-Fish?). What’s more, I feel even more bad when I noticed I didn’t bring my PT shows in. So, I asked IC what to do and he told me to go down in sandals, where my sergeant kindly let me off.
After breakfast, I went for IMT shooting (you need not know about it, just know it’s shooting range, a electronic version) at another camp (those who know where can guess) along with the company, and finished the shooting. Not very good on a bad stomach and nauseous self, I told myself, as I went back to the briefing room to rest. Then I suddenly had the urge to go to the toilet, and I wasn’t wrong: I puked. A heck lot of it, like everything yesterday and the morning’s Milo? (Did I mention I had no appetite?) And yeah, as how I explained to my sis: It was me entering the toilet alone, and 10+ people exiting the toilet with me. Yeah, the commanders knew about it already, even the orderly medic. Luckily it wasn’t much, and I said I was okay, as normally after this one would be okay. That, is not the case.
Maybe I should stay in the camp to visit the Medical Centre (sh*t another clue), but then I went back. The whole afternoon I wasn’t very well, so I reported sick, but then my camp’s Medical Centre needs letter after morning consultation hours, so no choice asked CSM to write for me. While waiting for him, the sergeant (who forgave me for the shoes) came along with me waited with me, and as I was sitting there feeling nauseous, his phone rang and the ringtone was like:

OMG, I thought. But nvm. I went to the Centre, he left, and the medic explained that the MO (Doctor, in short) was away (Medical Board, for those who know) and I ended up going to the Sick Bay. Now these words sounded normal, but that was the first time I had my first sugar drip. For those who don’t know what it is, it’s not classified info so I can explain. It’s this:

You guys be kind that I did not post any other real form of picture, because I’m intending to make this child-friendly. (Audience: |||…) The FIRST IV DRIP was wonderful, and I swear was totally an experiment, for the medics. The medic poked me three times: First because they cannot find their veins, second was because I flexed (muscles move, thus vein positions move, to put it simply) and lastly because they got one of higher rank to do it for me. The diagram is as follows:

*Diagram not to scale, in chronological order from previous paragraph
(I’m making this look so f***ing nice you assholes, stop laughing) (Audience: I thought this was to be a family website…) OK let’s carry on. So I got dripped, the feeling just sucks, really. I lied there for a few hours before it finished and I was allowed to go, and YOU THOUGHT IT HAD ENDED. Not the case…
At that night (I’m still on Tuesday, mind you), after dinner my temperature started rising, and even before Last Parade ended I fell out for fever. 38 doesn’t sound bad, but it’s a fever, nevertheless. So the verdict is so after discussion with sergeants and medics: I cannot go to the real range the next day, and I am to be EVACUATED to the camp I had IMT, which has a 24-hour Medical Centre. You get my point now? So the medics had to fetch me to the camp itself via the transportation only they can use. Yes – an ambulance. I went to see the doctor, he said was a case of Stomach Flu, and sent me back. Without any medicine. Oops. The medic still asked me on the way back, and I thought they’re supposed to get the medicine on our camp’s Centre. Oh great. So the medic sneaked some Panadol (you know the chemical name, don’t brag me with that) for me for the night (as if anyone it bothered to go there again; It’s like 40 mins to and fro you know) as I slept. My stomach still feels bad, really.
On a side note, I asked sergeant permission to get someone to drop my PT shoes in front of camp to get it. I still bad about it, but sorry sis and thanks for the help, even though you feel feverish and do not know the way to the camp. (Audience: OMG) (Yeah.) My buddy Steven ended up getting it for me that night, since I… sat on an ambulance, remember?
Wednesday – (Ah finally) So in the morning I had no choice but to report sick to my camp’s Medical Centre. It took me hours to see the Officer, I told him it was Stomach Flu (the fella at that camp couldn’t be wrong…) and was a bit constipating (I was a little like that since BMT anyway), and he told me he give me rest and – guess what – he sent me to the Sick Bay. And I tell you; The SECOND IV DRIP was not fun. What’s more it came with two injections before I could take medicine:

*Diagram not to scale
Ahhhh and one more day is wasted. I was recovering, because I know that since everyone else is outside and would not be back until midnight, I spend the rest of the night resting (not in bunk anyway, cannot also) and having a bad case of diarrhoea. Now I regret I did not tell the officer I was having diarrhoea: It just was a little later than when I consulted you~
So that night sucked, but I still had to sleep, so suck it up lor, besides I can stay to do light duties while having some freeodm to sh*t whenever I like…
Thursday – Wonderful day. Since I spent the morning sending, keeping and cleaning rifles. At least better than punishment and running around with a bad stomach and ass; You get what I mean. (Audience: I thought this was supposed to be-) (Shut up and listen.) Afternoon did some practice for an event I cannot afford to miss: Demolition. So I observed as much as I can, sh*tted some times, and by the night I was not improving. The diarrhoea, I mean. So…
Friday – Reported sick. Since I cannot possibly sh*t and run 5km. Really, huh? And I knew the commanders did not ask, so I rather admit first lest I suffer later. Some others reported sick with me, and even though the morning was waiting again at the Medical Centre… I had a plan. My intention was to:

1. Tell him I’m here for the diarrhoea medicine
2. Reject entry into the Sick Bay to avoid that stupid drip AGAIN.
3. Ask permission for going to the Demolition event on Sunday (which I’m about to go so you know I’m okay now)

Yesh but the best laid plans can come to dust, and this time it was of regret. I met the same Officer again, told him about Point 1 and 3, but forgot about Point 2. Yeah. So… (Audience: OMG so they…) (Precisely.)

*Diagram not to scale
Haha. Now you know what the title means? But this THIRD IV DRIP is more of a consolation: The people from my company who reported sick also suffered the same fate (muahaha), and many are not afraid of things like movement and backflows. So why should I? I HAVE EXPERIENCE… (Audience: LOL…)
Currently – Recovering, and going back to camp in like half an hours time, so consider me glad to type this much since I’m afraid I forget and not be able to type such a wonderful post after I come back from camp on Tuesday. Cya guys then, don’t ask me about the experience. If you need to, give me a call at 1800-CALL-NKN. If you can reach me, that is…
Life sucks. But if you accept it, life becomes an experience. Once and once again. - Kaineng

Sunday Night Report: Change, In General

The phrase “in general” means that I rather not spend time complaining about the bad things in my life. Okay, I’ll just complain a bit.

This week in Army is… rather bad. Bad because I ended up signing extra, haiz. All because of a stupid passport photo. Really, discipline is rather natural than necessary in the Army, isn’t it?

OK, let’s not make that break my day anymore, even though I’m reminded about a Vertical Marathon event tomorrow morning, which explains I can type at this time even though it’s close to my book in time.

ANIME
Tari Tari – Eh nice episode? *watches video again* Oh yeah, Wakana found a band who knew her mother, who created a hit for the band itself. Well, all about singing and touching stories about a Mum not to be forgotten. I wish I has a Mum with music talent. Sadly…
Binbougami ga! – More humour and action, with the arrival of Momiji’s dog. Somewhat like the Celestial Dog, he sniffs out fortunate people (like Tittyko, haha) and drain their fortune off. Sadly all doesn’t work, and Momou (the dog’s name) gets an understanding about Ichiko herself. Of course all the sick themes come by in the story, like the dog is an M, which means he can transform through pain (seriously…) and yeah, he got found out by Ichiko in her bathroom? Hmm…
Hyouka – Wonderful festival, and just in a cooking competition (I must say it’s some coincidence going on in the club room for Houtarou?) they uncovered the third and last hint for the upcoming mystery. Let’s see what that goes after that, then. How much can I say, but you know how great was the Opening Song? 2 weeks later dammit! Lucky got National Day leave, so can sit down and listen…
Kokoro Connect – Yet another episodes of uncovering secrets, particularly of girls (haha apparently the guys have no problem, and Taichi was a helpful person) like Iori and Himeko. Hmm I got a feeling someone already took my idea of APoL; Of a helpful person changing everyone’s thinking… But APoL is more than that, I promise…

MUSIC
This week? Two singles as I mentioned, and they both are well. I had a hunch to try my first pre-order with Tomacchan’s new single, which has not disappointed me. I also took the lively B-side song, which made my day. Yesterday, that is. ALTIMA is just good with the A-side; I puked when I saw the old woman in their PV. Now that I have confirmed Tomacchan’s single “Yume Sekai”… I will not buy until end of this year. Haha. Because I see something I don’t want? I’m not interested in Sword Art Online Anime, and they offered to give a card along with the single…

Sambomaster’s new works have not been appearing, so I’ll reserve that until I get it. Sid’s album due next week has also appeared in the Net (pending AirI’s single next week too, Tari Tari Opening Theme), and for now I have no preference. Maybe next week. Talking about next week I only have Saturday and not Sunday, until the last week before the National Day break.

===========

Two more weeks to the Basic training of my vocation, and I’ll be going into the Specialisation stage (that’s all I can reveal), which – from the looks of it – would be more relaxing than ever. Hopefully. Well even if life sucks we all have to anticipate change. Just like if you ever bought a box of discs imported from Japan back home doesn’t mean you think getting extras is that to blame. Balance, my guys, does not happen like that. Things can be avoided, when done the necessary. I just underestimated the standard in military life, and got myself into my FIRST AND LAST trouble. Really. I swear. If I get another I rather die than go DB. (Not explaining to you what that is)

Cya guys then. I just felt that I shouldn’t talk much, especially when much has been either forgotten or forgiven by my healing soul…

Sunday Night Report: To Everything Else Nothing Has Been New

Hi guys, welcome back. Eh… wanted to think of a super-long title, and it seems to suit for an APoL chapter title. Haha…
Let’s make this quick as I have to go back to camp in an hour. (Audience: And you type now?) Yeah…
ANIME
Let’s start with Tari Tari. Eh… an interesting attempt reviving the choir club by Miyamoto (I’ll just refer them by my best impression of their names), and yeah, that teacher needs a second opinion. Show definitely worth watching, and I’m already thinking about next episode liao. Binbougami is also good, where all the jokes still happen. This time talking about saving others not in the same financial status as her, and I swear it shall be future inspiration for my own project. No, I mean I have already plans in the next few chapters, and this episode can compliment it more, haha. Kokoro Connect today (subbed today) was a rather… I duno man, these episodes of emotion-talking and expression just feel weird to me, like it comes rather unnaturally. No, there is nothing wrong about the soul-changing; That part is superb. Like, you can just switch with someone who is weeping in their sleep… I could never think of that. Hope this part ends soon with Heartseed sparing their souls, and yeah, this show is gonna be quite a long one…
On a side note, I forgot about Hyouka, and only watched it today, haha. About Kanya-sai it seems, and with the new Opening it keeps me going. Cumon, it’s a famous lyricist whose name I’ve seen in Choucho, Sphere and many Anime artists: Kodama Saori. Seriously, how bad can her songs go? The episode wise… they’re getting into the mystery (there are hints already) while trying to sell their anthologies and finding a specific Manga. Yeah Mayaka-chan, happy finding…
MUSI Oh yeah, I almost missed about another thing, K-ON! The Movie. Sis watched it already, so it’s kinda sianz, but she watched with me for her THIRD TIME. That can already show how great this show is, and yeah I can say it is. But then the atmosphere of the show maybe a little slow-paced compared to the Anime itself lah, which is rather a pity. After that, everything else from planning to go to London to the language problems they face and stupid situations they had in the journey to writing a show we have already heard for Azu-nyan… Why not for those who haven’t watch go watch now, yeah? Honestly, if you loved K-ON! from episode one and had been loving it since, this is definitely not a miss. Really.
MUSIC
Wow this can be very long, but I’ll cut things short. I have four new singles (one reviewed last week, Kana-chan’s) for this week. Kana-chan’s okay for her 2nd single, Kalafina is just wonderful in their own way, Ikimono is just releasing another A-side only single and eufonius has given us the best Opening for Kokoro Connect I can ever expect, to be drawn into this show. The similarity between all four singles is that… I did not take their B-sides? Yeah, now that’s “unpopular season” for you…
On previews-wise, Kodama Saori is expected to trash this season’s Anime songs, I have found both first albums of Chatmonchy and Aqua Timez and gave them thumbs down, and took another new song from cozy diary, if you remembered they made an impression when I was weeping over my ‘A’ Level results. So have a listen; it’s just relaxed music when you need it.
SHOWS
None unfortunately, so I’ll skip this.
Hmm Dad’s already rushing me to go shower (haha I know I stink now, but as if you smell that from this page), so I better be quick. *silence* Damn it’s difficult to write now. Like, you’re sianz you have to go in camp now, suffering a week of rushed happenings, stupid regimental and discipline, doing new things you hoped you do not need to do anyway, and trying to enjoy the little sleeping time and wonderful food they serve. Hey yeah, that’s about my life as a Combat Engineer for the next three weeks, and they’ll see it from there. Yeah, “they” refers to the commanders. For now, I’m more worried to get in and even have 7 hours of sleep. Haiz, it’s vexing to have only like 30 mins of own time you know…
Cya guys then, have no much mood to type liao. Thought of creating a list of differences between Tekong and the camp I’m in now (I cannot say?) and giving you guys a bogus link to read it, (Audience: WTH?) but I rather enjoy the… the things I’m busy about? Haiz, sleeping in book out time is just like- like… haiz. I’m officially brain dead. Leave me alone, ok? APoL? Well if you have the cheek to ask again ask next week, I’m done for now. Good bye…
[P.S.: I say you guys don’t ask me any more questions liao lor! Haiz, I suppose I need to shut your traps up:

Hah! What do you make of this? (Audience: Lame…)]
[P.P.S.: (Audience: You know, you’re not cut out to be a comedian?) Yeah. I know. *goes to a corner and draws circles*]
