Allow me to explain the 2 wks of AWOL-ing my blog. in case u dun get wad AWOL means, Absent without official leave. i guess 13wks in military life brought about all the army jargons out of me. been rather busy during the wkends so much so that there's little time for me resting.
2wks have passed.seem a short time to most,perhaps long dreadful time where everyone's lookin forward to x'mas. For me it seem like a whirlwind. lotsa things have happened and are to happen.
Things accomplished in BMT : *this rox, everything's done,nuthing feels better than personally finishing every damn thing*
- Field Camp
- SIT TEST
- M16 Live Range
- Live Grenade Throwing
- IPPT
- Standard Obstacle Course
- 24km Road March
Cant believe i survived that dreaded,gruelling,fucktart march. totally mentally sapping. but end of the day i did it. it couldnt felt better than anything. that road march boosted my own confidence in myself. mental strength and endurance. 3 cheers!
IPPT was gd for me. SBJ was always my boogey station. it was a miracle that i jumped 225 on that day when almost all failed. i hope that wld boost my chance to going OCS. Whats more surprising is that my running was fucking shockin. i actually shaved off a further half min off from my alr gd timing of 10.29 in the 3rd diagnostic test. final timing was 9.47mins. fucking fast.couldnt believe it. frens were awed by the timing. shorty,with short legs cld run like a seasoned runner kinda engine. didnt wanna reach for the 944 mark as GOLD was outta my reach becuz of the DARN SBJ, again.
Platoon photograph is alr here.will upload it up by the next posting for all to see, since some may not have seen the new me haha, leaner meaner and tanner! :)
random thots: Signed the provisional contract for Naval Combat Officer on Tuesday. Will officially be a Midshipman if OCS takes me in. dont get it? I'm gonna be a Naval Officer soon! ha.
I heard lotsa objections in signing on initially. Daniel, RS, Alex, Ong and all. that signing on wld mean gone r the days of real FREEDOM, more rules to adhere by and stuff. but....whats freedom....? when ur troubled with fianancially? i aint sayin that signing on was purely becuz of monetary factor. but rather it is a more stable career, not only that, i feel that it wld be a very exciting journey ahead, with the fact that my dear uncle, who's holdin a decent position in RSN assuring me that too. yup thats abt it.
Graduation Parade is up,coming wed. And i m feeling ambivalent abt it. Rejoice that i no longer need to step into that darn island again every sunday ,with the blues in me. Happy that i no longer need to don the green ugly,fugly uniform and withstandin the sweat. but having giving up all those, i will also lose all the frens i made within the platoon esp my section mates. It was truly a happy time spendin those 3 months with u guys. All the shits we been thru, we did it. Hence,wanna dedicate a small part of this blog to u guys man. its u guys that made the whole experience worth cherishing.

All in all, good things are meant to come to an end, however its the memories that will always be cherished in our hearts......in our...?
"Hearts!"
oh yar, one more thing, its to this girl, whom i shall not name.but if ya figured out who u r or rmb visitin my blog, dun give up yar? Learn to be strong.Learn to accept that things in life are meant to be given and taken. Its thru hardship and failures that make one stronger. learn to give certain things up. be confident to face the future. Step forth and never dwell back for u nv know what are the gd things awaiting in front. Dont give up ya happiness for the sake of other's satisfaction. i admire your consideration and sensitivity of others, but do spare a thot for urself sometimes yeah? i m here for ya girl!
