I'm moving there. I feel that Blogger is not keeping up with the times, and that its functionality is very limited.

Updates stopped for this blog. Last post 20 August 2013.

Well, since I wrote this out on a piece of paper for my Dad (and the repairman, when that happens) to figure it out, I guess I'll put it up here as well. Maybe one of you geniuses can figure out what's happening with my computer.

Stage 1:
When the computer is turned on, one of these things will happen:
- Computer goes to sleep mode and cannot wake up
- Computer hangs
- Computer restarts by itself
- Blue screen of death
- Computer works normally

Stage 2:
When any of those crashes occur, I turn off the computer by holding the power button. Then, I turn it back on. One of these things will happen:
- Computer makes a never ending beep sound. Computer doesn't boot up.
- Computer parts start working and spinning but there is no beep at all. There should be a beep to show that the computer is working. Motherboard problem?
- Computer starts normally
When the computer starts normally, go back to stage 1.

Additional information:
- Whether or not the computer will crash again seems to depend on luck.
- Crashes can happen anytime: While idle, surfing the net, playing a video game, or even while booting up.
- If the computer remains stable and does not crash, no crashes will occur until the next day when I turn it on.

So there you go. Pretty comprehensive, minus the technical details like crash logs.

Well, you remember the time when I was complaining about how I got the worse of the two specializations possible when I was in Artillery Institute? Well, I think that's changed. Even though I have to route march, use camouflage cream and dig shell scrapes, my life for the past five weeks in 21SA has been really low on activity. So far, everyone else other than those on medical status has went for an outfield activity either once or twice since I got posted in. Because I'm a Forward Observer Gunnery Assistant (FOGA as they call it), such outfield activities have no relation at all to me since they work with their guns and deployment. I'm the only fully healthy guy who hasn't gone outfield. Then again, I'm not exactly fully healthy, but what the heck.

So, because I'm a FOGA, I pretty much have to do nothing whenever there's gun related stuff happening in camp. That includes the Before Operation Service (BOS) that's done every morning, or whatever other funny stuff that they have to do from time to time.

Also, there's only one FOGA per battery. Therefore, that makes me an important person. Being an important person is good. Lol.

Anyway, I've been made the office boy. I've pretty much got an office job now, so I'll just have to go to the office to do some administrative work, or do some general cleaning of the area. I guess you can say that I'm the newspaper man too. That being said, that doesn't mean that I'm free of any other obligations. If there's any sort of physical training, lessons, or outfield activities that require my presence, then I've got to go for it.

So, since I didn't have to go outfield, guess what I did back in camp? Well, sleeping till lunch is one thing (still had to wake up for breakfast though), then its either more sleep, or a few rounds of board gaming (Pandemic, Citadels), Wii, or ping pong (there's also Saboteur and Monopoly Deal, but we don't play that for some reason. I effin hate Monopoly Deal anyway).

Another thing that makes my life so damn good are the sergeants. You'd usually expect sergeants to be more disciplinary and strict towards us men, but seriously, they give us a lot of freedom. Even if they do tell us off, most of us don't really care either way. Its kind of funny really. Nobody marches properly, there's never a timer for the march, nobody really does area cleaning properly, and just yesterday I saw someone throwing a bottle at a sergeant.

Well, since I'm the office boy, I stay in the office most of the time, and of course, I hear a lot. The sergeants and officers themselves are pretty sick of NS, and they want to avoid as much work as they can. They actively try to get medical statuses. I've never heard such things like that before, but then again, I've never been able to hear them until now. Either way, I've been told things by some sergeants. One told me that its good to be an ordinary man. Another told me that I'm a lucky guy, getting an office job. That's the aim everyone should be heading for.

Well, there's isn't a lot of outfields left, and 21SA, being the best artillery unit, is going to start getting up my nerves since I can't pass my IPPT and SOC. This good life is just the beginning. The only possible way is down.
