Life’s Like That
This is the way I see it.
No one is subjected to my opinion, but I know that the way I see things would probably upset (or even offend) a certain group of people. I am entitled to my voice, and I am free to write. I may have a problem or two, but definitely not as much. At one point in [...]
Personal Statement
I used to be that student who would probably – and literally – slapped you in the face if I don’t like the way you talked. I don’t care how you would like to report me to the principal, but I know its unmistakable you ought to be slapped. If I never liked you, I [...]
When today was unreachable in the past.
I was seated in the lecture hall, being a Recruit, as a video of how Specialists are trained in the Specialist Cadet School flashed on the projection screen. Boy, did I remember how I felt; I was awe-stricken and I thought I never would go so far that stage. I mean, where would I garner [...]
A motion picture.
I’m 22 years old this year. Boy, did time past too fast! I’m being all nostalgic and irritating now because the military life I’m leading now have made me see the world, and all the people in my life, with another perspective. It made me realized how much precious time I’ve lost. It feels like [...]
One hardworking week.
I didn’t know how things will play out last week, so I decided to be the Course Platoon Sergeant. Besides, our training schedule spoke nothing more that more exams and even more lectures for that week. Little did I know I was so wrong. My Course Sergeant Major was Douglas and I thought working with [...]
Psychoanals are important, too.
Even though Army hasn’t been really my thing, ok wait, its really not my kind of thing, there are moments which I have been missing. Although BMT have been especially vigorous under Dragon Company — and with all my cursing which could’ve frightened the most callous gangster — I miss the people I’ve met there. [...]
Watching past replay with your eyes.
Its almost safe to say I am losing touch with writing. Used to be so good at it I could blow the entire Internet off. If you do realized, Lunar New Year is becoming a festive that we helplessly go through the motion. It is no longer a series of occasions that everybody gather for [...]
Life started new and exciting, then it will wear off and die.
So last week was supposed to be a good, good week with a Nights Off on Wednesday. It wasn’t until Tuesday night that some of us exercised wrong judgement and a mountain was made out of a molehill. Then our Nights Off was forfeited. Our Regimental Sergeant Major decided that we need a Defaulters’ Parade, [...]
Runway
Nabila and I decided to attend Melati’s make-up runway show yesterday at Singapore Polytechnic. Melati choreographed the runway show and I thought Autumn/Winter segment was pretty awesome. It was an inaugural event where aspiring make-up artists doll up their model and showcase to counterparts of their age. I was a tad bit under-dressed yesterday – [...]
Bringing forward past.
This November was littered with some Army’s high-key events and earmarked by my birthday. I just came back from my 3-day, 2-night field camp which we dug yet another shell scrape, and executed our battle drills and course. For some odd reasons, my time so far in the Army made me realized the importance of [...]
