Looking back on the year 2005
Dec 31st... Tmr is 2006 lo! Haha so fast... This year seemed to have passed pretty quickly for me... Enlisted on Jan 22... then BMT which was very conveniently segmented into bite-sized weeks at a go, which ended in March.
Also in March was the release of the A level results... which I lost quite a bit of sleep on prior to its release... the "good ol' " anxiety which we "missed" since sec sch... Very thankful that I came out alright...
Then a rather memorable time at the Air Force School. Although after one week of orientation I was officially put out of course, the remaining 3 weeks I spent there as a lobo (left out batallion order) were great cuz it didn't feel like NS at all... a bit of sai gang here n there but for the most part I was slacking in an air-con room doing my own stuff like soliciting tuition, reading the papers everyday and sleeping the day away... The uniform was smart, the place was great, the people were wonderful, what else could I ask for man? Only one, to stay longer haha...
Of course how I could forget the slew of scholarship applications I sent and the subsequent interviews I went for... the preparing for the possible questions they could ask. The competition I met, the fake smiles we had to put up and all the likes. Even though I din get any successful outcome (possibly due to a big mis-action on my part which I am still rather bitter about haha) I guess it was a good experience for me to add into my book... At least I know to act in future job interviews! haha...
Still contemplating if I should try again next year, even tho I am a little "too old" for it, with all the '87 ppl fighting for the very few places available heh. The whole experience kind of frightened me a bit liao hur hur. But I guess this is all fated in a way. Some of us are just meant to be high flyers... some of us not... or should I say not by the easy ways (get what I mean?) haha... Of course this doesn't mean my flame is extinguished... it just hasn't found the wick yet.
What was next? Ah yes... I was out into the School of Ammunition for a course, of course 2 months earlier than the commencement date, where I was sweeping the "sao3 bu4 wan2 de4 ye4 zi3". Leaves, pesky monkeys, good food, great company... also a memorable time...
Then posted to my current camp PLAD... small camp, really lousy food most of the time but still a cosy "family". Glad to have made a few good frens and many more acquaitances (no sarcascism here)... Initially afraid of getting into the duty team with its ultra irregular shift work and eating up most of my weekends and PHs... my frens would always see me reply sms-es with "so sry, I'm working this weekend" haha... and intitially I was also hoping to get into the DCC dept which was all like computer work in an air-con office from 8 to 5...
But after spending a good 5 months in the duty team (actually less than that course of ML and clearing of leave) and being told that I would be transferred to DCC in feb next year, I am strating to miss the duty team and have apprehensions for my dept shift... I guess never judge a book by its cover? haha
And how could I forget the ML course in mid oct to mid nov? Where we were all put thru so much shyt and shoutings and degrading comments. But emerged with a license at last altho I still feel I'm not exactly a very good driver haha... not a born driver I always say hehe.
Then my "dec hols" where I cleared all of my leaves and offs... to KL and bangkok... fun fun fun!!! Again also doesn;t feel like NS haha...
Looking back I feel truly blessed. Being in PES C and getting such a slack vocation and ending up in such a slack camp and all... True, I may be seen as "weak" and all being in PES C, I may not have the 2 months reduction some ppl have, no $200/$100 from IPPT and eveything but I feel like my NS life truly lives up to its title, not like some ppl who sh/would just refer to it as NS... (without the 'life' get it?)
And of course making my life that much more blessed are my close bunch of frens... ray, jan, ren and the always MIA yu as well... always being there for me, giving me support, company. U guys are sucha fun bunch to hang out with. God really blessed my life with angels, thx guys! And everytime I hear "Don't Cha" or similar bitchy songs u guys be sure that I would always think of u all haha. Don't cha!
And also lionel, for always chionging all the movies with me, and bowling with me altho u always win me at last. I've been training hard! Haha... Thx for spending all ur off coinciding with my night or duty off and making my whatso boring life a little less of that...
And woon, ner, re, zing, aili... another amazing bunch of frens... thx for still meeting up with me often. U gals rock!!! And pls dun label me as a jie mei anymore ok???!!! Haha...
I enjoyed 2005 so much and I definitely hope 2006 would be more smashing than this one! Happy new year to all my blog readers interested in this small not-as-exciting life of mine and here's all of my most sincerest wishes for 2006!
