Goodbye 2013, and.........WELCOME 2014!!
In the blink of an eye, there goes 2013 ! So many things happened in the year, some good, some bad, but most importantly I have learnt a lot :)
Looking back, here's a list of what has happened:
1. ORD on 6th March with a heavy heart. Even though I have looked forward to this day like everyone else, I was kind of sad to leave the camp because there were too many memories there!
As a commander, I realised that things were not as simple as teaching and guiding the soldiers who are going to serve their entire 2 years in infantry unit. Not only did I teach, but I have also learnt many valuable values from my fellow soldiers. Life was never easy, and it gets tougher as time goes by. We eat, sleep and train together. My section did me real proud when we never failed to achieve best section throughout the year and even my platoon won every best drill competitions. I had never felt a great sense of achievement when I witnessed my soldiers grow, from a bunch of ignorant boys to a team of determined and strong soldiers. All those times when I barely had enough sleep was really well paid off :) The countless field camps might be tough, but it allowed the commanders and soldiers to bond well! And I never regret going for the finale Brunei trip, because it was from the trip that I challenged myself as well as my soldiers to the limits. Oh well, I daresay I considered myself lucky to be posted to a infantry unit ( even though I prayed hard to be posted to Tekong to be a BMT sergeant, so that I can enjoy my life like most people =D ) because then I can proudly say that I have served my unit well and did my best to bring out the beasts from my fellow soldiers and commanders :)
2. Worked at Outdoor Life. Overall it was a worth experience for me! Decent pay, friendly colleagues and convenient location:) I gained much knowledge about most outdoor activities such as appropriate gears and relevant information. Not to forget the fantastic staff discount =P Things got more fun when the colleagues and I organised makan outing, badminton games and jogging sessions at Bishan park after work! Thanks Ahmad, T, Gracia Cookie and Li Xiao jie for running AHM together :)
3. Completed semester 1 in NTU!
