Whoa.

My last entry was when I was still a LCP. hah.

I'm a Corporal liao. And going to ORD in 1 month and 2 days. My understudy has already come but unfortunately after 6 days with us, he's now going for a course. He'll be back to see me leave though.

A pretty smart kid with a GPA of 3.8 for a Diploma in IT Security or something.

A lot's changed since then but I can't say much because now that I've grown older, there are some things that I have to be discreet about. Sure, I'll still say things that the more conservative might consider should be kept to oneself, but who gives a fuck. Yea, phrases like that included.

Had my first real drift yesterday in the van. The Impreza does not count as it's front wheel drive (or 4 wheel drive - so they claim). A taxi had come to a dead stop after the lorry on his right mistook the merge signs on the road to mean he was to merge with the taxi. Swerved to the right after finding the front brake to be unresponsive. Quickly countered to the left and found myself drifting for a short distance. Sure, maybe it was just a baby drift but chances are if you even have a license, you're driving a front wheel drive car so bite me.

Today, I left home at exactly 3.42pm. Headed out to the Shell station for the crazy 44cent discount going on from 4 to 5. Reached there at 4pm to the minute but there was a queue. By the time I reached the station, I was the last one to get the discount, at exactly 5pm. Well, officially at least.

I filled the van so full that petrol actually started leaking out of the tank. We'll see how this goes. 7Km/L on Shell's 95.
