Selamat Hari Raya 2015!

It's the time of the year again and this year, it's different because i'm in NS so i won't have much green packet collection as before. But nonetheless, it's an occasion to celebrate the end of Ramadhan and forgiving so there's nothing to be sad about. Plus, my allowance is more than enough. Not bragging, just ensuring others that i'm not sad. Really.

Anyway, i've finally graduated from SCS on the 25th June 2015 to become a 3rd Sergeant in the SAF. It's so much pride and happiness because i endured the first week of Ramadhan doing rehearsals and lessons. The rehearsals were no joke because it's serious, duh, and also because the weather was not forgiving at all. It was scorching hot and made our throats dry like it was draught season. So we the Muslims had to endure and persevere the hot weather and sun tanned ourselves until our skin was two-tone. Luckily i'm dark enough so the Sun was like, "i'll skip this one". Every evening when break-fast comes, we would all prepare minimally four cups of drink per person. That was how thirsty and how greedy we were. It was all free anyways. Thankfully the week just whizzed by and poof, we became men with ranks hehe! I was happy and delighted. Now, i can do whatever i want.

To extend my lucky charm, i was posted to Army Fitness Centre (AFC) in Pasir Laba Camp. So everyone posted there, including the higher ups have no clue whatsoever what this AFC does for a living. But speculations rose and many told us that we were doing 8-5 duty and bookout everyday kind of thing. So we went there and yes, indeed it was true. Immediately we underwent a two and a half weeks induction programme to up our fitness level and knowledge. I learnt that in AFC, the 3SG were usually put in the Physical Training Instructor (PTI) course. But the senior 3SG who were the batch one year before us informed that they were the last batch to become PTI. So lucky us, or not, my batch didn't have to go through the gruelling 8-week PTI course, which included something like combat swim, SOC and FBO fast march, back-to-back may i add. I've just completed the induction programme and my internal posting in AFC is to the Fitness Condition Centre (FCC) at Khatib Camp, one of the four FCCs which includes Kranji, Maju and Bedok camps. So the AFC is in-charge of our training schedule and the amount of PT we have, how the different exercised can be conducted and the types of sports or games that the Army can play. Currently, we're changing to Dragon Boat instead of the Army Half Marathon. But that's the job of my friends in the DB coaching team. I'm in the lepak FCC team who start work at 2pm and end at 10pm with Fridays off teehee!

I can't wait to start working. Kinda. Because it's new environment and i am free to do my stuff. The only downside is that i have to work on weekends. But who cares? I have Fridays off. 

I hope anyone reading this have a pleasant week ahead and have a blessed Hari Raya Aidilfitri!

Limited.

No hugs today. I sent her home with no goodbye hugs. It was meant to be a norm. I don't know what her reason was but it didn't really matter. Although through that, i am starting to suspect something amiss. The topic of the incident (previous post) was brought up again in BK while we were having late dinner. Things she said that i realised: 1) it was my fault to have kept things from her 2) it was my fault that things are worse off now than before 3) it's as though she wants me out I don't know what to infer. I mean as best as i could, i would do everything right and treat her right. But of course, i'm only human that makes mistakes like texting a girl behind her back and still keeps her secrets (what a douche!). I'm sad. I'm utterly disappointed in myself that i wasn't telling her every single thing there could be said. Oh i was damn wrong on that. In recent times, she keeps mentioning names of people who're far better looking than me in schoo...

the Sunday before Christmas.

wow. so much for homework day. it turns out to be a catastrophe. i didn't even touch my homework! argh. woke up quite early, as compared to other days. but mother had plans already and no choice but to follow her. went out to visit my cousin who just gave birth to a baby girl. extremely adorable. then went home for awhile. went out again to NEX at Serangoon to walk about and see what's there. honestly, it was a total waste of time. ate late lunch at Wendy's and went home. and now i have totally no mood to do anything since tomorrow i'll be heading out of Singapore already. i should totally bring my homework along and try to squeeze as much as i can into the limited time i'm already having. DAMN. k, Sunday's proved unproductive. maybe my brain works during weekdays. screwed. see you in three days time starting from tomorrow, humans. shit TOTALLY happens but life has to go on.
A NEUTRON WALKS INTO A BAR AND ORDERED A BEER. WHEN ASKED FOR THE BILL, THE BARTENDER SAID, "FOR YOU, NO CHARGE!" - BIG BANG THEORY I WANNA GO WATCH DAVID CHOI SO BADLY! ANYONE KIND ENOUGH TO ACCOMPANY ME? PRETTY PLEASE. :D maybe, just maybe, you're the reason i became so strong. but for sure you're the reason i can't sleep. aren't you tired? you've been running through my mind all day! no, no. this is not called emotional. but if it is, then it is all your fault for not making me happy. what would you wish for, if you had one chance? i'd wish for you and i to become us .
