Cannot Take IPPT

Just came back from Safra Jurong, I didn't get to take my IPPT, the PTI say my name not in their system meaning I cannot take, even if they let me take also not counted and he asked me to call the 1800 number. I told him I only excuse from push-up, he checked also reflect same thing in the system but somehow I still cannot take my IPPT, I thought excuse push-up means excuse only the push-up station? Anyway I called the NS portal and they also can't answer my question, my question is do I even need take my IPPT and my window is closing soon so how, will I be penalized? They noted my query and say will forward to my unit, best is no need to take la, waste time since no reward money even if I take. And their system also not smart, since I cannot take, then why let me book, cock right, want to make me waste my time to go all the way there right. Army is forever cock-up, wonder if they actually get anything right at all, oh wait, only when they call you for service then they rea

Arm Seems to be Getting Better

Yesterday went to polyclinic to see doctor for my muscle tear, the medicine really power, this morning notice that the bruising retreated significantly, by now only left a 1 cm wide 3.5 cm long bruise, yesterday much bigger. Also feel that strength returning to my arm, since injury right arm like so weak, now feeling stronger, also when I stretch some awkward position not that pain anymore but can still feel some strain. Hopefully can fully recover soon. Oh by the way I received the referral letter from my medical centre, lol now then receive, wonder if I can go book specialist appointment using this letter, think should be able to but maybe no need already.

Army Really Famous for Cock-Ups

Today I went to work and my right chest kept twitching non-stop due to the muscle tear injury during my ICT, so annoying and disruptive and until today I still haven't get the referral letter from my camp medical centre. So I called the NS hotline, they forwarded case to my unit, basically the hotline people cannot do anything, might as well I call my unit directly. But at least my unit returned call really fast and told me my appointment was on 19 Jan lol, today 26 Jan and now then I know I have an appointment which is over, the guy said somebody informed me, yeah more like nobody informed me, the guy said he only received the letter last Friday which was 22 Jan and he mailed out yesterday or today, joker right, appointment over then mail out to me for fuck, contradicting right, if he received the letter last Friday, by then appointment already over, then why would anyone inform me? Really cock and bull story. Then I asked him about the cost, he said I don't have what M s

Booked IPPT at Safra Jurong

Since I am excused from push-up thought might as well try the Safra IPPT, friend say run treadmill in air-con room, very relaxed. I just need 39 points to pass, hope this time don't tear any other muscle lol. Now my arm bruised again, actually the bruising have mostly retreated but last weekend while carrying stuff into the back of taxi, the boot cannot close so I tried to elbow with my right arm, ended up hurting again, always forget not to use right arm, and I found that my left arm is very weak, too used to right arm already.

Last Day of ICT

So fast last day of ICT, I checked NS Portal they updated another high-key for me, I just need to clear one last high-key and I can go MR! End of ICT also mean start of work, tomorrow have to go back to office, wonder how many hundreds or even thousands of emails to read lol, hopefully not much problem. And Chinese New Year is coming soon, I gave my mother $150 (sister also gave $150) and asked her to cook, might as well eat at home, eat at restaurant so expensive and the food not as good as home-cooked food. I missed my mother's sesame oil chicken and pig trotters, they are the best I have eaten so far, outside ones are too salty and not fragrant enough. I think if my mother open a stall can earn good money but I doubt she is interested, too bad I am not chef if not I can learn from her and open my own stall.

How to Marry a Thai in Singapore

You should refer to here -  https://www.rom.gov.sg/reg_info/rom_marriage.asp Please spend some time to go through and understand the information on that section (legal provision, other information, filing of notice, solemnization and etc), if your still not sure, feel free to drop a comment here or you can use their FAQ . The ROM website did a really good job of putting together the information that you need in a well-organized manner. I've done it once and I think the guide is very easy to follow. The only hiccup I've had with my marriage is during the  Appointment for verification & Statutory Declaration where both of us were required to read out a wall of text and my wife had difficulty getting past the first few lines and the counter guy got fed up and told my wife to stop. Definitely my oversight as I didn't arrange for an interpreter beforehand but luckily, there was a licensed interpreter at the scene and we managed to get her to do the interpretation fo
