950 days and counting.

It's been only three months since i re-enlisted into Specialist Cadet School (SCS) in Pasir Laba Camp but felt like many years. I've been busy with training and juggling time to keep up with my family, my loved one and the outside world. I haven't met my friends for quite some time already, Shall find time for them after graduation. 

On the bright side, i have only 63 days left (as of this post) to graduating as a 3rd Sergeant. On top on that, i've only 27 days left in Singapore before my departure to Sai Yok Camp in Thailand for overseas training. I'm excited but at the same time feeling a little saddened to be leaving my loved ones for three weeks or so. Nevertheless, it'll be a new experience for me and something for me to learn from.

This post is just a short update of my life just to get the dust off this dusty place. (don't remind me of the outdated colour scheme) Anyway, as the title suggest, it's been a whopping 950 days since 16th September 2012 and i've been ever so grateful that i've met this girl. Given that i didn't make it into Innova and went to a polytechnic or other college, i would definitely missed my chance to meet this girl whom i call my girlfriend. There's a dream that in a probable six or seven years time, when i have completed my university education, i would have saved up enough money and secured a good job to start a family with her. That's my dream because it's her that i want and with her whom i shall start a family with. Hey, a guy can dream too. It may seem like a long time but i know we all got to start early and got to start somewhere. For now, since i'm serving NS, i'll save as much allowance as possible so as to get a head start on the savings for the future. Be it for my own monthly expenses in university or even my wedding. That's the ultimate mindset i have. From now on, i can only think of the future and how i want it to turn out. Nothing comes easy but it will go your way if you work for it.

I hope in the coming years, my family and friends are in support and may we all be blessed in our lives.

Alhamdulillah, i am grateful for everything.

Wow. Five years since my last post. Well, a whole lot has changed in five years. I never knew what dreams are made of and i never knew what it was like to achieve your dreams. Through hard work and pure grit and determination, you can achieve your dream. There will be times where you think your goal is just out of reach or it will take you a longer time than originally hoped for but trust yourself to make small leaps of faith and many unimaginable things can be achieved. As a Muslim, i believe Allah is the best of planners and alhamdulillah, He is the best of planners. There were times i doubted myself about my life and what i wanted to do because the journey to achieve my dreams is taking longer than i had imagined. Five years ago i was still in the National Service serving in the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) as a Third Sergeant taking NSmen for Individual Physical Proficiency Test (IPPT) and conducting Remedial Training (RT) as well as IPPT Preparatory Training (IPT). In 2014, i had ...

Fruit Loan Sharks.

For the first time in two years, i went back to the old fruit farm that my grandparents own to help them collect the fruits that are blooming and still continue to bloom till now and tomorrow and till it doesn't bloom anymore. Was freakishly tired from the three hour drive up and back down to SG. Reached SG at about 10 and now is few hours after that. Took time to rest then blog. It was big. The fruits collected were as usual bigger and heavier than 40kg. That is the weight of me. The fresh durians, mangosteens and rambutans are simply tempting. But sadly, since it has already been weeks that i've eat it i have started to feel disliked towards the fruits. Anyways, the first thing i did when i came was to put my long sleeved shirt to protect me from the mosquitoes. In the end, i still got bitten. IDK. Then, walked all the way to the back of the land to start work - collecting fruits. It was only 3 acres of land. Ok. End of story. Today was just about this journey. And i think i ...
