I don't know if anyone drops by anymore, but i thought i'd update it since so much has happened.
No 1 tags liao. haha, a sign of the blog dying. So well, thought i'd add some life into it. Just in case there's some1 checking, but i don't think so anyway. Oh well.
Hmm, been like 2 months plus since i came back from my Thailand trip. Well, thailand was SOOO MUCH better than brunei i tell you. I mean the terrain itself was like heaven compared to brunei. haha. The weather for the 1st half of the training over there was pretty good cause it was the winter seasoN theRe. nOt that it snOwed or anything, but it wasn't hOt in thE aftErnOoN. bUt at night it'd be kinda fReEziNg. haha. bUt overall it was cool. thE time over there was generally a nicE time lar. but i missed yOu guys over there though. yeah. =)
Okay so after cominG, there was onLy 1 outfield exercise left, then after that it was just preparatiOns for Commissioning. For 3 weeks, the start was real lousy cause we were punished for a lot of things that was real silly. Well, anyway, that made those 3 weeks real long, and also made me wanna get out of there ASAP. But that is so not what i want nOw. Will explain why later. Anyway, the 2nd and 3rd week were mOstly drill lessons for commissioning parade. It involves doing drills under the hot sun for hours and hours. That period i was really chao tah-ed man. haha. the tan line was sUpEr obviOUs ah. haha. But thank God, somehow during most of thE drill lEssons, there were strong winds and stuff. God's real good. hehe. So from here, yOu can see that even in lousy situations which you can't change, God can still change the things to make things easier for you, see how much He cares? hoho.
Anyway in the last 3 weeks, i was really close to my platoon mates. Many things happened too. I was really sad due to my aunt passing away... But it was good to see that some that knew what happened cared. Shant' talk too much abt it. bUt yeah i was really close to my platoon mates. A few of them especially. We did a lot more things together. I've never been so close to non-christian friends before ever since primary school. Weird huh? haha, well anyway, after the 3 weeks of grueling training under the hOt sun, it was finally commissioning day. The moment i threw my cap into the air after the announcment: "The Newly Commissioned Officers", was really a moment i probably won't forget. It was a moment of real joy and happiness after going through 9.5 months of madness. But along with the madness, i made real friends i cherish and love.
Now that it's over, i won't be able to sleep, talk nonsense, tell jokes, get punished, have fun, go toilet, have meals together with them anymore. And when it came into realisation, it gave me a sense of lossness for some time, cause i really miss them. I really really do.
So people, please, before you start missing them, or start to regret for not spending enough time with your friends whom 1 day you might not meet as often, or dun even meet anymore, treasure them. Treasure them so much. Bring them to Christ if they don't know Him. Keep asking them to come to church if thEy aren't christians yet.
Cherish them. Love them,Never forget them.
