Guess what Muggers? Tomorrow is the last day of Orientation in Mugland. Don't you wish the fun and games had lasted more? Here's a recap of your typical Mugland Orientation. On your first day you have your CSI with someone knocking off someone in school... (The nerve!) Labels: plastic muggers
Then on day 2 you got your MMM. Nope, not a Massive Multiplayer Mugging game, but something just as fun. Your Massive Meridian Marathon!
Day 3, things get hot and wet with Wet 'n' Wild!
And...afterward it would be the campfire except that I hear we don't have one this year. Which is just as well because I don't want to burn one of my plastic muggers. =D
NOTE: Appreciate this ok? I stayed up till 1:35AM to rush this out in time for tomorrow. =P Anyway in the first pic, the Space Miner, Police Officer, and Explorer (which I forgot to mention-DARN!) were contributed to me by taky! We'll probably be seeing more of them soon. =] Thanks! Just a parting note guys, treasure your orientation. It's one of the best parts of MJ, yeah? =D
Much as it's weird to admit it, some of us out there miss studying. Go ahead. Admit it. Sometimes, stuck at home, don't you wish you had something else to do? With many of the guys in NS and most of everyone working, how many time do you see your friends? I'm lucky, I meet taky everyday because we work in the same area. I still keep in touch with most of Mugalo. Some people are stuck at home, with nothing to do after work. Maybe they turn to mugging for solace. Are you one of them? This is: 10 Signs you miss Mugging.
1. You secretly take out your GC, put in the batteries, give the buttons a few pokes and then guilty put it back where it was. (After taking the batteries out, of course. Don't want anything to happen to your precious GC, do you?)
2. You wake up in the morning and find that you've cradled you GC to sleep, sucking your thumb. (Yecch.)
3. You take out your old notes and flip through them and re-memorise them for old times' sake. (Actually you don't need to memorise. They're still in your head!)
4. You hack into one of your juniors' IVLE account to download assignments to do. Then you hack into your teacher's account to give yourself more work.
5. You actually beg your juniors to give you their homework so you can do it.
6. You specifically take a detour on your way home to pass by your JC. Tears roll down your cheeks as you pass it.
7. You take out your old notes to periodically update your doodles.
8. You go through your old notes and scan all the questions to check if you've copied anything down wrongly and redo the question again. Without referring to your notes.
9. When everyone's asleep, you put on your school uniform again, and admire yourself in the mirror. Sometimes you even pack your schoolbag and walk around your room to recall how it feels like.
10. You wake up early each morning to catch the Majulah Singapura on TV because you can't start your day without it.
SIDE NOTE: First of all, apologies are in order. I know I have promised to update this blog more and I haven't exactly been delivering on that. Sorry. Well, my current work schedule has been shifted up by half an hour so I have more time at home now, so maybe that'll help.
However, the imagination pool seems to have run out of juice and I can't get my creative streak to, well, streak around. I see that there are still 10+ to 30+ hits each day, and I feel pretty bad for the little updates. Just went clicking around, and seen some great reviews also.
It seem people still do discover us from time to time, and it give me great pleasure to see that people have enjoyed our blog and linked us or told their friends about us. So, I'll try not to disappoint. We've missed plenty of good occasions, CNY, New Year, Vday, and the 1st 3 months, but I hope we can get this site up and running like before for the next batch of students. Cheers to all, and a very belated Happy New Chinese Valentine's 1st 3 months!
When we get back in shape (think I'll officially announce it), I'd like to seek everyone's help by tell your friends we're back up again so we can get the momentum going. (Knowing you get almost 50 hits a day really puts the pressure on you!) With more readers, we'll probably be able sustain it for a while.
1) You march from point to point wherever you're going when you're out on weekends, even down Orchard Road. Labels: NS
2) You wake up in your PT kit on weekends, ready to do the 5 Basic Exercises at home.
3) You're more comfortable using the latrine you dug up on the grass patch beside your house instead of the toilet.
4) You think that 5-tonners should replace SBS buses.
5) You only wear green, black or brown in any combination out on weekends.
6) When someone says charge, you think of things that go BOOM.
7) Mud and dirt seems so much more friendlier now.
8) You put yourself at attention every weekend morning outside your room and stay there till your mum inspects and approves of the condition of your bed.
9) Your blanket is now green in colour.
10) You ask your girlfriend out for shopping at Beach Road.
11) Your standard facial cream at home are now green and black camouflage cream.

Author's Note:
This one, was basically a silly little comic commenting on the holes in the heads of the plastic muggers, and I'm not sure if it's 4th wall breaking or not, OR if thay're aware they are LEGO minifigures. Maybe not. If you're not sure about the 4th wall thing, here it is.
