Craziness, Exhaustion & Helplessness
This is a week that swept by, with my annual training kickstarting on Monday. The initial dreadfulness was eroded by the familiar faces I saw, despite there being unpleasant ones amidst the nice ones. I went back with Yuhao in the wee morning. And I managed to escape two haircut inspections when everyone said my hair is long, confirm will get caught but I was adamant that it's not long at all. Thank god for blessing my precious hair! We had a parade the 1st day, took IPPT, revised many stuff that was long forgotten and I can bet u guys it really kind of brought me back to two years back, just like a time machine, cos we were like doing the same old stuff, similarly siong. And we had 2 outfields, the last one with CAMO on somemore! Who says reservice is slack! Maybe other units, but definitely not mine. Sometimes as I was doing those stuff I can't help but wonder, why r some people so lucky in the sense they get posted to those slack units while Im slogging like a cow in this freaking place? I know nothing's ever fair, but I cant help but think how unlucky my life is sometimes. That's y whenever I hear people complain about NS, I couldnt help but thought to myself, maybe U shd come my unit and experience it before u KPKB abt it, and what gives them the right to complain, cos they still dunno what siong-ness is all about.
Imagine mixing with different breeds of people for 2 years. It was unthinkable when I 1st saw them, and it's been like 3 years already. How time flies, and time is the ingredient which allows us to know people better. Everyone has their worth, thats what I learnt. I guess sth good about my unit is that it really made me a mentally tougher guy cos I've been through the toughest days.
On a lighter note, it is really nice to see the old friends again... PC, William, Teo, Kit, Kin Hua etc. Brought me many memories as we ordered Macs last nite, chat, chiong-sua together etc. Those were the days. And there was a VJ teacher in my bunk, David, whom I learnt so much from him. Oh and on wed, due to the latebook out, I had to forego Pirates with Wai Han, XX, SY and Daryl. I felt so bad cos it was already paid for and they chose to treat me for it. Curse my company, always so screwed up which caused our late book out at 1235am when my show was 845pm. But according to them, Pirates is damn crappy and boring. The 3 of them dozed off even. Okay, maybe a blessing in disguise for me then. Anw I did meet them at geylang for my dinner cos I haven eaten dinner yet after sending Kit, Wee Boon, Teo and PC out of camp. I felt like a driver, but im happy to send them out. Really thank them for waiting for me till 140am at Yong He. Yup my so called dinner at 140am! I could see the tiredness and restlessness from their waiting, and my hp went flat somemore. But it's really nice to catch up with them before we r scattered over the world for the next 2 months. Then I sent WH home and me, XX and Daryl went to a coffeeshop in Punggol to have a drink. The 3 of us ordered Watever! I was excited as it's my 1st time ordering it. So fun guessing wat we got! Chatted till 3 plus before I sent both of them home.
Anw Joshua Ang of 'I not Stupid' is in my ex-platoon. He shd be sleeping in the same bunk as I used to sleep. Haha. Saw him today, and he looked normal, like any NSF. And my entertainment inside is? The narcisistic me says it all! Life is not boring and dull without these guys! And I love my gay Buddy! Though we r both busy with our own lifes now, we'll find time for supper together again like those days.
Flying Off tmr to Hanoi, Vietnam~
