Had my SYFC 2nd medical assessment today - Chamber Run. Woke up early in the morning, not feeling my best of course. I took my time to prepare and then went off, as i realised today was a Saturday and there won't be much people taking 90. Went to Toa Payoh (don't know how many times recently) and took 90. Reached there on the dot at 7.50am. I saw another guy from Ang Mo Kio Secondary NCC Air there. I knew he looked familiar, and i confirmed with him that his is from NCC Air. Looks i know quite a number of people from Ang Mo Kio Secondary, and i keep seeing them for some reason that i don't know. LOL.
Back to Chamber Run. I went there with all sorts of wrong ideas about what Chamber Run was. It goes like this. We went inside this chamber, that simulates the pressure change as we are flying. So of course as we ascend in altitude, the pressure drops; descend would be vice versa. First, we ascend at a rate of 4000 feet per minute to 10 000 feet. We need not do anything, since the pressure in our body will automatically 'pop' our ears to balance the pressure. Then, we descend at a rate of 2000 feet per minute to an altitude of 2000 feet. We have to do the action of pinching your nose and blowing out to 'pop' our ears to equalize the pressure once in a while, so as not to damage our ears. Then the doctor will check our ears and we carry on ascending to 18 000 feet at rate of 6000 feet per minute and then descend to sea level at a rate of 6000 feet per minute. While descending, we have to do the same action even more constantly. My ears passed the test! xD
I was bored after the test when i reached Toa Payoh, and decided to visit the people doing CIP at Bishan. I got there and realised quite a number of people actually know me when i don't know them. I think i will be recognise by the current 'red name tag' batch of Sec 1s as the 'PDS guy'. Actually, that's not a bad name! xD Wasted quite a lot of time waiting for the stupid lorry to come. =.=
Went to Bugis with Wei Kit accompanying me to shop for Chinese New Year clothes. We got stuck in the middle of the road - you know, the place where they have a pavement for you to stand. It was congested with people - i think it was worse then the traffic jams. We waited for the green man to appear for countless times, since Wei Kit suggested to be civilised and not climb over the railings to go over. Haha, civilised we shall be! xD
In the end, i bought nothing from Bugis. I travelled down to Chinatown while Wei Kit went home. Walk around at the OG and bought like 4 T-shirts costing in total only around $100. Can see how poor i am. LOL. All i can say is OG really knows how to do business alright. Went home after that to cure my poor legs. =X
Clueless at how to handle the situation... taking one step at a time.Sss... Nevermind. Nothing. LOL! xD
