fyi blogging from my office's computer - still in the office at this kinda hrs? oh i definitely ain't those that will chalk up hrs of ot to rush work n make an impression. so the reason has to be i ain't going home. haha 2nd night of sleeping inside my office, obviously the first gave me a really good feeling, cos i dint haf to wake up at 5+ everyday to rush to tekong. so even though i can still slp late here i gotta slp more, n thus less dozing off during wrk - up pts!
so here i am, blogging in the office where i'll spend the rest of my 1yr10mths. heard from my colleagues that my upper-study is a really "garang" guy. not that he sits in the office n imagine himself chiong sua-ing but he's like damn enthu in his work. like the white board he left behind, i can see him planning to do stuff that he's not in charge of. that's why they say he's like mother n son with our chief clerk (a she, civilian).
coping rather well with my work, which is btw a registry spec. don't think of registry as just doing registering n filing, cos actually there's not a v.definite job scope. u do that plus many other unofficial stuff. today i just did my first despatch, which means going mainland to other units to send/receive documents n stuff. was a rather good experience, cos u get out of that sleepy environment in the office n go for a walk, (n pay for ur own transport), enjoy the scenery n go see the world in other units. except maybe the fact that i missed lunch. it was a lengthy despatch despite the unit being just in changi, cos i gotta take the ferry n change 2 buses, and ferries r like hourly.
ok enough of army life. but that's the problem (most) grls don't understand. if we don't talk about army, wat can we talk about? that's our life! we are full-time national servicemen. haha.. yup enough crap anyway this yr x'mas do feels a little more like x'mas than the recent years, just when i thot i've outgrown the feeling of festivals. somehow there's a little more mood, probably because it's a public holiday and public holidays are always treasures to nsf - oh army again.. but yeah i do feel i'm in the festive moods!
looking forward to the 24th, morning maybe, probably the last time we'll set foot (n court shoes n ball) onto sajc. how we'll miss the campus, the very campus we spent 2 fantastic years, perhaps the best 2 years of my life so far i dare say! even though the new campus may hold our beautiful school crest, our school name, our teachers, but it doesn't hold memories, for everything else happened in the old campus. the world doesn't wait for us.
