today's my last day as a civilian.. wow, time flies.. the one-month holiday ended so soon.. but, after all the fun and food, its really time to settle down and take up a sacred task.
its gonna be a big big day tmr. its a new phase of life that is totally different from any stages so far in my life.. its a totally new role im taking on, and will be facing a new set of challenges and responsibilities. All in just a few hours' time.
Today, i see the longest hair length that had ever grown on my head.
Tomorrow, i will see for myself, the shortest length that i've ever seen on my head.
But thats just temporary. Its the experience and lessons learnt that would accompany me for life.
And its also about building team spirit.. NP days were great memorable days. NS would be, too. But just dun let me have dumbasses as buddy or platoon mates, if not it'll be damn cham. And how about nice officers? Oh, that must be wishful tinking, for im nowhere near a white horse.
Wadever it is, its really time to face it. However ill-prepared i am in terms of mentally/physically/spiritually, im left with no choice. but im confident la, cos really, im easily adaptable. yupp.
And yes, i must really thank my relatives, for all their concern.. i received 3 good-luck-angbaos from different relatives... and also some tings to "ward off evil spirits".. Seriously, im pretty touched.. it feels really nice to have so many ppl who care.. thanks and more thanks!
And thanks too, to all of u, who had wished me good luck.. I sincerely appreciate all that well-wishing.. Many thanks again..!!
Lastly, to myself: You can really do it!!

Perhaps abit on how my last day of freedom was spent...
I woke up very early today la..at 6am, cos i was dragged by wx to help out in the dhs sec3 islandwide amazing race.. den saw quite a lot of familiar faces as helpers too... junhua was dere oso.. haha.
So.. today really travelled alot.. not only spending precious adult fares on countless mrt and bus trips, but oso ran so much today..all over the island.. but we all get a 10-buck reimbursement for our transport fare la.. (if not u tink i'll travel all over just for fun? pok liao la)
generally, its a great event.. i tink its better than my tj orientation amazing race, and also the ip orientation amazing race.. haha.. and going back to my alma mater gives me a different kind of feeling.. i feel abit out of place, with a weird hair colour and weird turnout, but yet i still feel warm and everywhere still connect to me pretty well.. duno how to say oso.. just that, somehow i have a sense of belonging when i returned..
saw ms pear and i was glad that she called out my name.. but other teachers seemed to have forgotten me already.. well, its been years ma.. and somehow i feel soooo old when travelling with all those sec 3s.. my, they are 4 years younger than me ok..
but yeah, though its a tiring day.. but i enjoyed the fun la..
not as if i have many chances to feel young and have fun running about already.
somemore from tmr onwards, i must act mature liao.
人生是黑白的.
