time to get a ps3 liao lah.. woo hooooo!!!!!!!!! GT5!!!!!

disciplined

to the extent brainwashed

well.. this is how 2 naval officer cadets were when they came into mindef just now.. what i heard from the guys at the other entrance is that they could have been marching or half marching up to mindef building from the taxi stand or gombak gate.. not forgetting their peak caps.. they came in and out of the building a couple of times n everytime they step out of the building they will don their peak cap proudly n adjusting it by looking at the one way glass panels of what appears to be nothing but is actually our platoon office..

they half march in the building while holding their peak cap in their left hand.. very standard... they must keep in step.. at all costs... my junior saw one of them jumping step..
they stop and pay compliments to every single officer (mind you we're in mindef) who passes them.. thats not how things work outside trainee life.. i guess they r too stressed out.. even 2 navy majors were laughing at them

my junior was a kind soul.. he told them.. u need not march in mindef building.. the cadet came over to the xray machine n told his buddy "eh bu yong march" its as if they r doing things because ppl ask them to do.. they r not using their brains.. is this how our future officers are going to be like?.. im confused.. worried for our future leaders of the forces

ooo..



Altec Lansing UHP336


it features audio signatures and technology by Ultimate Ears.. thats y ur immediately reminded of the unique shape of the earphones.. so nice.. yet so cheap compared to UE.. up to 26dB of noise isolation.. that really cool.. i really wanna try it.. wonder if jaben would bring it in.. maybe if its another few years b4 i get a car.. i may invest in another earphone b4 saving up n concentrating on fantabulous i.c.e

just aft spotting this at altec lansing i went ard.. i discovered a previously auditioned mid range earphone.. i didnt try it though.. touted as "a sonic rival to Ultimate Ears’ super.fi 5 Pros".. rated A- recommended by ilounge.. its not too old a model.. the clear casing is damn cool.. now i want to buy so many things again.. its a phase...
