tyler

yes this is an update of my life.

well this update is sort of the continuation of the previous post i did yesterday. too many things to highlight but my brain did not have the capacity and energy to do so back then so here i am again, topping it up.

of course, moving away from the chat about ICT and work email, and before i go on further, Happy Father's Day to all fathers and fathers-to-be out there. okay, back to business. managed to caught up with the shows and movies i have on my to-watch list. have been always prioritising my Youtube subscription videos above them since Youtube videos update very regularly.. much frequent than the shows/movies i follow. so yeah, little sense of accomplishment.

Swamp Thing. i am still a little upset that this show is only a season long with only 10 episodes. the current and only season airing has not been disappointing at all. it is a real shame to see it go after this, especially with such a decent cast.

Black Mirror. the latest season, while having only 3 episodes, still delivered the harsh truths and hidden ugly secrets of our current society or the potential of where we might be heading towards. while the themes explored are still rather appealing, in terms of storyline i think this season is less harsh, meaning some parts are a little predictable and endings might not be as daring as past seasons. nonetheless, i loved it. ironically, the best episode to me was the 2nd episode.. the one without a big name as the main cast.

America's Got Talent. gosh, i don't want to say anything else about the latest episode other than the fact that you have to watch Simon's golden buzzer performance. so many great moments in a short time span of 8 minutes.

actually, i have a little more update but that can wait a little longer.. maybe some time in the week ahead before the weekend. on to the second half of ICT. until next time then, cheers.

warm up & operation

yes this is an update of my life.

midway through this year's in-camp training. brain is almost dead and some parts of my body still aching a little.. signs of old age? nonetheless the past 5 days have been pretty good so far i guess. from meeting up with army buddies to eating good food together to clearing the bane of combat fit soldier, the IPPT test.

apart from those, the past week is more or less the little warm up for the next week where we will be back to doing simulated operations. quite a few things have changed and i am glad to say most of these changes are for the better.

of course, work do not stop just because i am in ICT. checked my work email couple of times to clear my inbox. glad i managed to do so since each time i did i had 50+. can't imagine if i wait until two Mondays from now to clear.. probably will be sandwiched by around 300 messages. still have quite a few things to update but shall keep them for tomorrow as my brain capacity for today only allow this much. until next time then, cheers.

wearing green

yes this is an update of my life.

the past week was a 4-days work week but the workload seemed to be a full 5-days one. i guess this was slightly due to the fact that i had to clear quite a few things before i am away from office for two weeks. managed to clear what i set out to do. however, towards the end i was made known that i will be taking on a new kind of project really soon. excited since this kind of project is something i hoped to work on someday even though i do not have some of the technical knowledge on it.

well, then you might ask how the hell am i going to take it on? for starters, i will not be the "main lead" in this project. next, i am expected to learn and pick up new things when i come back into office towards the end of June. school ended but learning never ends.

that said, the two weeks away is not because i am on a holiday. i am wearing green and heading to Nee Soon camp for this year's high key in-camp training. may i pass my fitness test easily, especially when i started training way later this year. once this in-camp training is done.. back to office learning new things and leading an initiative before slowly counting down to the real holiday in August. until next time then, cheers.
