And here it is, once again. :D

Dear Santa... Dear Santa, This year I've been busy! In January I caught a purse-snatcher who stole mightytomato 's purse (30 points). Last Wednesday I helped jeannetteyeo see the light (8 points). In November I helped ckris hide a body (-173 points). In September I bought porn for chasingheartss (-10 points). Last Monday I gave thirteenstops a wet willie, then I took it back (-5 points). Overall, I've been naughty (-150 points). For Christmas I deserve a spanking! Sincerely, freespirit-dom

Merry Christmas everyone! I'm at midnight mass, so I can't be posting this, but I have mad skillz woo.

15 mins to the eve of Christmas.
:)

It's been a great year, full of unexpected twists and turns. Last Christmas, I'd never have seen myself being where I am this Christmas, all thanks to God :)

Gloria in excelsis deo

That was heart wrenching to watch. The final whistle was heartbreaking.
Bill Shankly would be so upset. 50 years from the day he took over. 50 years ago, when Liverpool was quite crap, to be honest.
And Shanks took over. And the rest is history.

Sadly, it looks like that's all it's destined to be. History.

But nevertheless, we will walk on with hope.
Because that's what being Liverpool is about.
YNWA.

I swear, this is awesome shit. You can hear that bit of Hendrix and Stevie and a whole lotta soul.


Now, to all the people who are grinning to themselves that Dom is listening and appreciating John Mayer (and you know who you are), I've always maintained that he is a fantastic guitarist. He still sounds nasal when he sings, but hey this is good enough for me.

Feel that baby. Nothing like it.

Except maybe this.

Groovy, baby. Yeah.

Christmas is exactly one month away. It's different this year, huh?
I have no clue what I'd be doing. I have no time to prepare for Christmas.
But what the hell.
Christmas is coming.
I can't wait! :D

 INTERNET IS BACK UP WOO.

Home internet/phone is still down! And I have assignments to do. Grah.

It is October 25th. That's exactly 2 months away from Christmas. Not feelin' it just yet. Hahaha.
It has been a good month, albeit a tiring one. PYC next week to top it all off. Hope it goes smoothly.
Exams/tests after that. Can you believe it? I have exams and tests in the army. Yeah.

Come on sugar, let the good times roll.

I can't believe I own an iPod, thanks to jeannetteyeo . That's so against my personal rules, but I guess sometimes you say you'll never do something but you'll end up doing it anyway, finding out that it actually isn't that bad. Pretty good actually. Never say never.
Good to have music on the go.

Ok gotta run off to church now. Bye.

Mondays. Who likes them?
Tuesdays are gloomy.
Wednesdays.

Ah yes. Wednesdays.
Peak of the week.
Wednesdays indicate the imminent weekend.

Wednesday begins in less than 2 hours.
Bring it on.

Not having my guitars at home has forced me to turn to the keyboard when I feel like playing/singing something. Which is good. Can learn stuff.
But I'm still having abit of trouble coordinating my left and right hands. :/

Hopefully soon.

Time to sleep. It has been a tiring week. It has been a strange week.

He understands.

HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER IS BAAAAAAAACK FOR SEASON 5.
I shall watch episode 1 before I sleep. Now.
Kthxbye.

When today's comic loaded, Keenan came into my mind.



This is SO YOU. Whipping out your iPhone for everything. Hahaha

Sometimes, it's good to just let loose.
Let your soul do the talking and your fingers do the walking.

Nothin' like some good old blues music.

I just weighed myself and found out that I have lost 6kg over the course of BMT. What the hell?!

There. Done. 7 weeks of BMT, and it's over. In the blink of an eye.
It really flew by, didn't it?

:)

Back to a normal life, for now at least.

Friday 14th August was a very special day.

Miracle 1
At about 12.45pm, I was putting on my uniform (long-sleeved, long 4 for army guys) and getting ready for our next training. As I stretched my arm upwards to get it into the sleeve, my hand hit the ceiling fan. Yes, I stupidly stood under the ceiling fan to change. I thought nothing of it, because such incidents have happened before. Then I decided to check my hand to see if it was okay. I then realised that my hand was still inside the sleeve and fully concealed by it. Upon removing my hand from the sleeve, I noticed a deep gash, all the way to the bone, on my index finger. It wasn't bleeding yet, but it did soon enough and rather profusely and continued to bleed (less profusely) for the next 10 hours or so.

If my hand was out of the sleeve, I would most definitely have lost my finger. And those who know me would know how much my fingers mean to me. HAHAHA.

Miracle 2
Before duty at around 6pm, we went to grab dinner at the cookhouse and we were asked to leave our vests and items outside, with a sergeant watching it. When we came back after dinner to pick up our belongings, one of my issued items was missing. (I don't think I'm allowed to mention what it is on the internet, so I shall not take any risks) Losing this item would mean 7 years in detention barracks, which is military prison. Naturally, I freaked out. So I searched everywhere in the immediate vicinity and could not find it. I informed my sergeant and proceeded to fall in and continue with the things we had to do. My sergeant asked the other sergeants to search the area. For the whole time that I had fallen in and was doing the things I had to do, I could not concentrate at all. I was praying like mad.

After we were done, I asked my sergeant again. He said the other sergeants could not find it. I freaked out even more. I then asked one of my buddies to help me check one of my pouches. And amazingly, it was there. I did not put it there. Neither did any one of the people with me. No one knows who put it in there.

Miracle 3
While doing my overnight duty, my buddy and I were taking turns guarding an area. So we decided to take turns to catch some sleep. As I was snoozing, at approximately 5.20am, I felt something nudge me. I woke up and noticed something black about a metre away from me. As I opened my eyes wider, I realised that it was not a rat as I had thought it to be. It was a snake, black with bright yellow stripes. My friend did not see it, so it was not him who had nudged me. It most certainly was not the snake that had nudged me as it was too far away to have done so.

3 times in a day. I truly have an amazing friend, an amazing Father, watching over me. All glory be to God, now and forever.

Hello all

I'm back after my first 2 weeks as a soldier. It has been great, really. Quite fun and the feeling of nostalgia of the regimental lifestyle is quite interesting. Haha.

Booking in on Monday!

The time has come for me to serve my nation.
For me to collect my birthright.
For me to pay my dues for being born in this country.

I will be back on (approximately) 8 August. I think. I hope.

Woo. See ya'll soon. You can follow my NS life on www.twitter.com/minix89 and feel free to call/sms me at night (approx 9.30pm-10.30pm from what I hear).

Bye!
