Please Keep Burning October 29, 2008

There must have been particular moments in your life when you start feeling tired of the mundane cycle, when the passion begins it’s fusion with death, and all you want to do is make a great escape. Oh yes, you sure do know what i am referring to.
Undergoing service term in OCS is wonderful despite the hectic daily schedule. For example, we get to learn a new weapon, the following day will be the technical handling test, then followed by a live firing already.
All the strenuous activities, such as intervals/30:60/endurance run will be in the early morning, basically draining half of our maximum capacity. The rest of the day will be filled with lessons, which i find myself struggling to have a major epic battle with the Zzz monster instead of trying to pay attention/take down notes.
Free time will be spent revising what we have learnt because our superior will always be picking random “try to avoid eye contact” personnel and interrogate them with questions. Failure to answer will simply result with “i want to keep fit” punishments/regime.
I am seriously upset that my short Deepavali break just went past in ultrasonic speed, poof. Looking at what is to come, the Sunday morning book out/Sunday evening book in, the impending hardcore, no joking matter, omgwtfbbq, ten days field camp at Singapore’s favorite island, Tekong. Oh wait a second, i still have IPPT this coming Saturday and with my hamstring/quad muscles still severely sore, seriously going to doubt my performance as for now.
Anyhow, at least i still have my brothers to go through all these ahem with. Hardships bring people more closely knitted.
Continue to pray that the fire in me will continue to burn, perhaps get more motivated to burn stronger. That someone special will come by and inject me with Novocaine (i’ll be delighted if i get a small dosage of Valium too), then hold my hand and pull me through.
F.Y.I my commissioning date will be like on the 20th of June 2009. So, so, so far away la!
Okay, time to shower and prepare for book in, till next time.
Day by day, it will eventually pass boy.




sigh. hopefully i don’t have to ot this sunday so we can attend church together.
