Mervyn Hoe: My Daily Happenings

Recently I was recalled back to the Army for mobilization briefing and I have the déjà vu feeling, as if I'm back as my good old recruit days once again. When I donned on the uniform, it just brought so many memories. From my Basic Military Training (BMT), to Officer Cadet School (OCS) and to my army unit.  BMT I can remember vividly that for the first day of BMT, I was unable to finish the cookhouse food. The portion was so huge. After three months of training, the portion is just right or at times, not enough! My appetite for food increased so much during this phase. It was a place whereby I first started to be given responsibility. First huge responsibility of being the Platoon Commander for a week! I wonder why my sergeant chose me out of so many people. I had no choice to take on, and learned to shout marching commands, delegate duties and so much more! It's a great testing and learning ground for young men. I can vividly remember the final day of my BMT, I ...

Wow. This month has zoomed so fast. Already 17 days have gone! I'm really very glad that I have been meeting up with my clients, up to the extent of around 2-3 a day. I'm so happy to see them progressing in their lives. Some getting their own properties, some getting better paying jobs and some even got married! It's really a life business that I'm in. Very happy about it. Definitely it's tiring, on the good side, I manage to have some new insights from my clients such as deals to go such as tree climbing, online nuts delivery and also countries that they have gone! I'm so happy that my clients trust me and my company. I'm really very thankful for it. Blog Recently there is tremendous spike in the daily views of my blog. It used to be averagely 70-80 views.

  On 4th October 2014, we headed to Punggol End to view the Punggol Pier! It's really an exciting journey there because we just want a place to see nature, sea and people fishing! We took Circle Line from Bishan to Serangoon, and changed to the North-East Line to Punggol Terminal. And we took bus 84. After 6 stops, we are there at the Punggol End!  Picture of Kate and I awaiting for Eve and Josh.  We didn't go to the Punggol Pier. Instead, we decided to take a look at the Gallop Stable @ Punggol Ranch.  We were at the waiting area for pony ride!  Look at this stairs! It's the place where we mount onto the pony or horse.  Yes! The horse stable! Beautiful right? The horse is licking something. Not sure what is it.   Guess what are they? They are chalets!! I was so shocked that people checked into these chalets. Cool right?   Look at this cute pony!   We decided to take a try on the horse ride! We paid $10 for a round tri...
