Oh...HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!

forgot haha

HAPPY DOG-GONE NEW YEAR!!!!

We lead and fight as one, ARMOUR!

Sigh...20more mins to book-in...

It's been what, nearly 3 months since I entered armour?

We got 5 day week (as opposed to 6 days), good food (relative to tekong's), brand new bunk facilities, pretty slack instructors, warrant officers, and an flirtatious E-mart lady/auntie that actually has some standard (compared to SAF ladies' in general...*clears throat).

Still, it seems like, despite all this things that i should be grateful off, I am getting sick of SAF already. Maybe because of the way it is run? Lack of freedom? Or that despite the integral part SAF plays in keeping Singapore safe (comeon, look at the big picture), it seems like a cimplete waste of time?

Might be so, considering I have so many things I want to do that army's preventing from doing, plus I'm a freedom kinda guy. Still, I'm getting sick of it.

Heh, and I was guy going around telling people to be positive about their enlistment and to make the best of it.

Maybe another reason is coz the SAF, being a SINGAPOREAN organisation, encourages its soldiers to do their best by.........talking about it.

Want entrepreneurs? Throw in a course. Want creativity? In comes 'creativity' modules, designed to make u the don'juan ala creative-manificeounce, to be taught by...ar...the lecturer who does not understand what he is teaching and can't tell the difference between 1+1-2=0 and 1-2+1=0.

Sigh, hopefully I can get come kick out of this coming SATURDAY's live firing (40mm AGL and 0.50cal Heavy MG).

Hey, being shag is one thing. Being utterly bored and sick and shagged is another.

Thank god for my wonderful bunkmates though! they make everything in bearable, and even fun sometimes!

God's Will?

I don't know where this actually came from..but I think it is a good reminder that nothing stays bad forever..here goes.....

"When heaven is about to pace a great responsibility on a great man, it always first frustrates his spirits and will, exhausts his muscles and bones, exposes him to starvation and poverty, harrasses him by troubles and setbacks so as to stimulate his spirit, toughen his nature and enhance his abilities."

When will we ever learn?
