One month and One week to passing out!!!

Hey there pple, its me again, know its been awhile since i last updated my blog... and i really have to apologise to those that have been supporting my blog for so long, for that long wait, but well i am in the army, so there isn't much time every weekend to do this.

Its been 2 months (since enlistment) that i am in the Singapore Armed Forces. The feeling of being in the army so far have been not bad, slowly feeling that i am really growing from a boy to a man of many responsibilities. Guess its really true to say that in army, a person indeed do grow in character. Apart from changes personally, i have also seen changes in many other pple from my platoon, from timid guys to brave young man, from hopeless cases to those that aims to go command school such as SISPEC and OCS. Indeed i have to say its been a wonderful experience so far. As almost all major event (like field camp, SIT test, etc) is over, this last few weeks is basically to select those suitable for command school, and preparing our bunks and stuff for the next batch of Gryphon Warriors, to embark on this once in a lifetime experience. What lies ahead i am not really sure, still have 20 odd months as an NSF before getting back my pink ic. will i be in command school, or juz a man running around the unit i am not sure, though i personally really wish for saf band, but wat lies ahead i am really not sure. but for one thing i am sure is that i will try my best in watever lies ahead. As the saying goes, days goes by whether you are happy or sad, so why not make it a happy experience. haha seems to have been saying alot of craps. well at least better that writing a whole lot of things about my daily life in field camp right. (though i did consolidate everything in a diary). Currently, my vision for the rest of my BMT is to enjoy watever i do, whether or not i am going to pass my IPPT is no longer important to me, as long as i know i did my best i am alright. Another is to lose more weight within this month, so that even if i go unit, i would have an easier time controlling it. Other than that i guess is to spend quality time with all my mates, sergeants and sirs i guess... donno if we will have any chance of meeting them again once out of BMT.

Guess thats all the things i have to say man.... One month plus to passing out... really counting down the days man.. heez... In the meantime, study hard all my frens who is going to have your exams soon, and do take care of yourself, miss you guys alot and JIA YOU WO!~!~!
