one week to leave clearance! i am one of the last of my batch to be going off.. most people i know are no longer in camp any more.. so many new faces.. so many changes in training procedure.. i feel so odd suddenly.. so surreal..
looking back .. there were so many things that have happened.. so many people..
there was jordan, roy, mingyang, alex, bobo, fairuz, ong and azhar in leopard.. jackson, tun, yicheng, beng, jimmy, ivan, han boon, chuan seng in charlie.. eddie, gerald, waiseng, andrew, BG, clarence, jin tai, ben at smi.. andrew, azman, saiyan and the lot at 5sir.. francis, mervyn, qiurong, denis, law, fiyaz, kai in jaguar.. so many people.. so many faces.. so many memories.. i cant help but wonder where many of them are today.. what are they doing now? will we ever meet again? or have our paths crossed but only once and never again.. these memories will soon fade.. i will soon forget their names.. their faces.. but the times spent slogging through the dirt.. these will become stories i'll tell my son.. and his son..
i look at myself now.. how am i different from my pre-ns days.. and i realise how much ive grown stronger mentally.. how i have been equipped with skills that will last me through life.. note that i am not writing some national education shit for the government and i still hate the SAF all the same.. but i still thank the fucked up system for making me a better person nonetheless..
sigh.. so much melodrama.. so much passion haha.. a chapter is about to close.. another chapter about to open.. what does the future hold? will i be able to cope with the greater challenges that lie ahead.. only time will tell.. God bless..
