So finally I’ve gotten around to updating xanga… wow it’s
been like wut, 1 yr since I last updated… haha… yep. Was in the army for the past year, still am
though hhahah. Just recently finished training to become an officer <- (if u
dunno wut that is… er… I can’t help u). Ok basically there are two kinds of
commanders, officers and non-commissioned officers… yeah officers are
commissioned by the president. So basically the only diff is u hafta salute
officers and call them “sir” hehe…
training has been tough for the past year… hella lot of
physical shit… running, carrying heavy loads on ur back and walking like 60km
over a span of 2 days 2 nights… overseas training exercises in Brunei and
Thailand (those were the worst… omg… almost died)… in Brunei, it’ll rain like nobody’s business
and u’ll be drenched all throughout… in Thailand, it’s scorching hot, to the
point of burning…. Like 35C… imagine wearing a helmet, carrying a big-ass
backpack (we call it a field pack), and in long sleeves, walking in that
kinda weather for 3 days…. yah, but
looking back, I really enjoyed those trips cuz we learn how to survive and
adapt to harsh conditions. bonded really well with my buddies
So last week I finally commissioned as an officer… my booboo
came down for my parade, which was really sweet of her *MWAH*… thanks for
supporting me all throughout my training dear… was hard for us but we still
made it through… all our bickering and stuff hahaha…. It’s funny when we look
back at it huh? Hehe… thanks dear… here are a couple pics from my parade…
this was before i commissioned.. before the rank was changed haha
this was after i commissioned, notice the rank
change... 1 bar there now hahah.. i have a marksman and a physical
fitness gold badge on my left arm too

So I’m basically back into the world now… 8am-6pm job as a
staff officer for the National day parade 2007… hahah… freakin hell, I’m the
busiest of all my buddies… they do like nothing everyday, and I’m basically a
SOHO… well I guess it gives me a taste of what working life actually is… I
hafta call many different companies who are involved in the construction of the
stadium… coordinate everything ugh…. hope it turns out well…
man it feels great to be back into the world… freedom rulz!
