Brilliant Night!

The night sky is brilliant! Its not a starry starry night but a cloudy one with one big hell of a moon surrounded by a rainbow. Nice!

Just came back from SJI Renaissance XVIII concert. It was a spectacular performance put up by the SJI Military Band. All the memories of SJI gushing back into me when the school rally was played and the Josephian pride re-ignited along with Hail SJI. $15 was worth it for me but not sure if it was for ZH, but anyhow thanks ZH for spending your night with me.

Guess what people.. I have enlisted for 9 weeks. The coming Friday I am going to pass out from BMT! Im not sure what I am excited about since its passing from one hell hole to another - and perhaps into a bigger one - but I guess at least something is happening. On top of that, I get 1 week block leave after POP (:

To me, BMT was awesome. It sucked when you are going through the tough times, meeting ridiculous timing doing superman physical training and out of the world punishments but now that everything is over and you look back, it was actually a blast. I guess the best memories are the toughest moments in life.

Days ahead are gloomy. I have another 20 months of NS to serve and the next phase is going to be the worst i'll ever have in life, be it unit, SCS or OCS. Unit would be repetition for 20 months, SCS would be 5 months of even tougher training with 32km road march and 2 months worth of outfield. For OCS, it'll be 9 months of extreme hardship with little civilian time and close to 4 months of outfield , not forgetting super duper uber imba training. It really sucks but im sure it'll be like my BMT days - you feel like crying when you're in it and feel like crying when you're out.

There are many many people i want to extend my appreciation to. They helped me pull through my BMT days and made it awesome.

  1. It's good that you've got so many friends behind you all the way when you're going through army :) perhaps this really is the catharsis that so many people often (need) and go through while serving NS.

    Congrats on passing out of BMT and being able to reminisce the moments you've spent in there, no matter good or bad - hope you've made more friends who'll be with you, and that the next place you'll go to won't be as...conflict-ful :)

    Nice job.
