Simple life

With great power comes greater responsibilities. You would probably hear this catch phrase again come this May.

So what's with this line. After getting drunk and puked on Thursday night, not forgetting the 4 hours turnout during the wee hours, i'm officially a Platoon Commander for 3 Signal Battalion. You would probably be able to catch me queueing up at Boon Lay interchange every Monday morning starting tomorrow, destination Jurong Camp. Thank god i'm heading NUS this coming August, else i would be doing this for 4 years if i got into NTU.

Somehow i managed to get what i wanted for my appointment. Networking Platoon Commander that is. Most relevant to what i've been doing for my 3 years diploma, and what i'll be doing next 3 years in NUS, lastly maybe for the next 30 years or so in my career.

For the next few months, i foresee myself pretty much occupied with army. That explains my usage of the famous Spiderman quote. It may sound real bad or whatsoever, but i'm starting to see the cons of being an officer. You carry so much on your shoulders, you have to be on your toes all the time. You are responsible for so many stuff, you just wonder when is the day you make the fatal mistake. And it's not just about stripping of rank and be demoted, it could mean someone died due to my negligence or be jailed for making serious offences.

I hope to get early release for my August school term, and in the meantime, i just hope to learn as much as i could as a Platoon Commander, have fun with my men (not to mention Derrick, Wei Jian from Season 1 Superstar is under my charge), and hopefully take away what i learn and apply it for future use, especially so since i'm in networking.

Last note, if you're reading this, maybe you should stop doing so. Till then.
