FAQs

So first and foremost, why the nick g0dspeed?

Now I have a lot of nicks that I lurve e.g. My ICQ and MSN nick is SnowiLinBenoki while my IRC nick is either that or G0dSpeed.You must be wondering why I have so much nicks well basically when I first started out in Lan Gaming I used the nick snowblower. In case some of you might not know snowblower is a chinese comic book character. Well it gradually evolve into alot of different ways of displaying the nick. If I can recall correctly it was snowblower ab ovo then Snowblower , SnowBlower, SnowBloweR, Sn0wbl0wer, Sn0wBl0wer, Sn0wBl0weR, SNOWBLOWER and finally Sn0wB\0weR. Oh right! Finally it came to a point where i can't think of anyway else to evolve ! Evolution was a hit then because of X- Men! That last version Sn0wB\0weR stuck with me for quite a while until i began watching star wars and was in awe of Young Obi Wan Kenobi and all the weird Jedi names.I decided to changed mine nick so that it sounds somewhat like Master Kenobi. So using my surname as a middle name, I cut short my nick to snowi and jumbling up Master Kenobi's name into Benoki and came up with Snowi Lin Benoki. Later on I took away the spaces and voila SnowiLinBenoki. Whatabout G0dSpeed? Well if anyone had seen The Rock, you would know. In that show, Nicholas Cage's character's name was Goodspeed, Sean Connery's character made a comment about his name which sounds like godspeed which incidentally meant success or properous journeying.

Woah that's a long answer! Seems to me your nicks came from influence of movies?

Absolutely! I lurvve watching movies, at least a show a week is my policy...

So I heard this is your first attempt at blogging?

You are right. I guess I like expressing myself in words? Although, you may criticize that my english is bad...But really, I do hope to further my studies doing Communication Studies, have quite a keen interest in journalism or doing reviews.

So what do you emphasis that we should not miss on your blog?

MY WISHLIST! HINT* HINT*

Anyway I really would like to thank you all for even coming here the first place.

What are you doing right now?

I'm a Chao Recruit! Completed my NSF conversion course already.!

What in the world and when is NSF conversion course?

It happens from the time you recieve that letter informing you about your enlistment date to the date stated on the letter itself. Usually, they notify you at least 60 days in advance, a few were not lucky as they were informed only 14 days in advanced. I however do not know if I am lucky or what to be informed 120 days in advanced. During NSF conversion course, you may get moody, long to be loved if you are single, spend more time with beloved if you are attached, start preparing your mind for the Tekong session, (optional) train yourself in physical aspects.

Cool! Care to describe yourself?

I am both optimistic and pessimistic, so I always also get myself prepared for the worst-case scenario, just in case it really happens. But, yes, I still would've been dissapointed. At this point, I would like to apologise to people whom I may have offended as it is just an imperfection inherent to my personality.

So apparently you are a S.N.A.G?

I don't really know whether I am one. Apparently, SNAG are supposed to be lucky with girls(which i am not!), so i may not be one. I am sensitive though, I think. Am shy towards girls I like even if I know them for a while, I just don't know how to open my mouth and express myself. I am not perfect though since i am irrevocably human, I may have the height that many guys would like to have and shoulders broad enough for girls to cry on, but I'm BIG! Vis-a-vis Fat!

Most embarassing moment of your life?

There's 2.

The latest was during the Singapore Idol Auditions(1st round). I went into the audition room and froze after singing 2 verse... I was so embarassed that I wanted to dig a hole and hide my face. My mind was hoping for the producers-cum-judges to say I may go. But they were nice enough to ask me to skip the line if I have forgotten but since I need I can't remember so readily, I decided to start over again. Really nice producers!~

The first was once i fell asleep in the MRT... Halfway thru i was jolted up by god knows what. I saw this lady in front of me. Because i just awake, i thought that "lady" was pregnant so i quickly gave up my seat. The "Lady" then look at me with those "what on earth is going on?" eyes and then my mind became more clear.. I realise the "lady" wasn't pregnant and she wasn't even a Lady! She's like i guess probably 18-21 who is just probably overweight like moi... Omg! Being embarassed, i quickly got out at the next station even though its not where i'm suppose to stop!~ Actually come to think of it... i think the "lady" is much more embarrassed than i am.

Woah....

That's all you can say? That one famous line made popular by Neo in the Matrix!

Haha... I guess the last question will be are you really single and available?

Yeah..., I can second that. I'm a sad lonely guy, longing to be love. Please however do note that, although I am more than willing to make friends with everybody, in the end, I am still straight!
