and so it is.. i got my army enlistment two days ago. and as apprehended.. 7th april 06. naval diving unit. i have mixed feelings about it. as for the date of enlisment... i really wanted to go in at jan with everyone else. but they apparently have only one intake for divers. quite a few pple expressed envy.. so i'm starting to think that april isnt that bad after all. besides.. its going to be a 4 month holiday for me. haha! as for ndu.. my parents are ok with it. which is cool.. coz all i wanted was their blessings. that will do for me.
one happy thing.. i saw the list of things i may bring for enlisment.
You may also bring portable muscial instrument or sports equipment.
Autumn!! i can bring her along! happy happy. at least i wont be deprived of music. must say that God has been really gracious. haha
so..ronald and ben in airforce.
stan, parvin, jun hong, dennis, yunxiang, amos and raj in commandos
edwin in special ops (!!! haha)
i still remember what my grandpa told me.. he was one helleva soldier to me.. (roughly translated from hokkien)
being a soldier
it is not about shooting guns for fun.
its not about the number of enemies you take down.
its not about being highly ranked, the prestige, the medals.
its about the reason why you need to fire your gun.
its about the reason why you have to defend
its about the reason why you want the honour.
love.
well.. there are people here that i love. that will do for me. that will do for me
