Namo!

Getting ready for the next week of NS life now. The horrors of field camp are already over for me... And I did well to make it out alive, with no blisters, no cuts, no injuries, no sickness whatsoever. So I enjoyed my CNY.

Sit test is the next obstacle in my way. Honestly its no stress for me at all. I'm not aiming for OCS or SISPEC, cos if my career path allows it, I'll auto be an MO. If I don't make it I'm happy being an ordinary soldier. That'll help me focus more on YE worship, and I think that's what the Lord wants.

CNY was the usual. Mahjong, snacks, visitation and so on. Went for a couple of outings. Friday was with Kestrel Platoon 2, and we ate BK and watch CJ7, which wasn't too bad. Saturday was with SYC2. They came over to my house, then to Gerald's and lastly to Paul's for soccer watching, Poker, In Between and Blackjack playing. Today was with Faith Cell, playing Mahjong and eating spaghetti at HJ's and JS's house.

Back to field camp. Of course what we did there is classified information. But one thing I'll divulge is about the exhilaration you feel when you get to fire your weapon. I was super surprised that we'd get to fire blanks. And once we did, I got the hang of it instantly. Shiok sia! And my rifle seems to be very obedient. Not once did it ever jam on me, unlike everyone else's weapons. Happy.

The punishments weren't the hard part actually. It was the rain that kept our morale down, our bones shaking and our shelters and sleep uncomfortable. Only at that point of time would you feel as if you had met a Dementor from the HP series. Otherwise, it was an ok experience.

Well have a craving for unagi now. (Which I don't think I'll get back in camp) Other than that I'm looking forward to finishing of sit test and the 5th week of my BMT. Probably will be back only sat evening. See how. Till then!

Digimon

 I'm feeling quite nostalgic and have been thinking about my childhood a lot recently. A lot of it is because of the retreat I just had with my CG members and how having such a retreat reminded me of days that were more slower paced and more relaxed.  It makes me want to relive some of my memories. Two ways that I've thought about is soccer - I've been watching some of the World Cup matches, and it reminds me of the late nights I had watching matches when I was 15 or so and just starting this blog. About how soccermugger came to be in the first place and how I wanted this platform to post about soccer scores and how I felt about the matches I watched. The other way is to watch old anime, and I'm thinking about revisiting the first ever anime I watched which was Digimon. It was televised in Mandarin at 8am, and I remember waking up early on the weekends to watch it fervently. Maybe its time to do that again.  In general I guess my inclinations are to be more at ease and ...

It's been quite some time since the last post, and time has just been ticking on. I'm entering a new phase in my career in a new office at Queenstown. Things are good on the work front, as I've been given a vote of confidence and responsibilities despite my young age. Eventually I'll be getting re-designated as a Team Leader, and looking forward to it! It's a sign that I am well versed enough in the work. Another part of my life that has been looking up - playing keys/bass for the newly created Saturday Service for church. I feel that spiritually things are well despite the turmoil of last year. A great sense of fulfillment and meaning whenever I do that, as if I'm back to my roots. In terms of leisure the usual things:  1. Soccer - Late night matches (back to the good old days) 2. PS4 - Trying to finish off Tales of Berseria, moving on to Assassins Creed: Origin thereafter 3. Anime - Still watching the good old stuff that is still going on (One Piece, Yu-Gi-Oh,...
