the countdown
the value of time...
it's invaluable really.
i'm enlisting into national service this saturday, 14th of june. catorce de junio, that's 14th of june in spanish. and in actual fact it has taken me quite awhile to finally come to terms with certain things. not the impending daily tough training, but rather the loss of freedom and more significantly the loss of time which i can do and accomplish so much more. yes, coming from someone who hasn't even enlisted i can't wait to complete my jail term, i mean my national service, so that i can go and further my studies. but i'll just take it as a new phase in my life. i'm not taking NS positively, but i do not have to take it too negatively either. to me, just serve and f*** off. S.A.F, so they say.
i'll miss everybody. vel, my friends and my family. so this last week is meant for catching up i guess. had a pool cum supper session 2 days ago and i personally feel that my pool skills have improved! could beat marc now when i was the one getting thrashed last time. played him twice and i won both! haha. junwei's girlfriend joined us as well so it was nice that they could all meet me before i enlist. marc suggested going to send me off but i didn't want. haha.
and tomorrow it will be lunch with my classmates. and come to think of it it's a good thing that i'm enlisting early too. if given a choice i wouldn't want to be in darryn or even worse andre's position. early enlist, early ORD. haha. as i said, time is precious. and by the time i graduate from BMT louis would have just enlisted. wahaha. chao recruit!
a happy 10th months in advance to senorita velda khoo! haha =)
enlisting exactly on the 14th, unfortunately.
thursday the 12th would be family day. dinner for 3 occasions, keziah's 1st month + father's day + my enlisting into army.
and yes, i got a nintendo ds lite for myself as well. enamel navy, i thought it was cobalt blue initially but it's alright, nice as well. and it's fun! all the mario games, especially mario kart which i was so addicted to, then there's nintendogs that vel mentioned in her blog. my dog is a labrador retriver puppy which i named pigguu. don't ask me why i don't know either. haha. and alot more games which i downloaded. heheh. and i'm learning spanish on my ds too! which explains the few spanish words i wrote above. vel's learning french and i think spanish is much easier. haha.
el tres de abril es mi cumpleanos.
translates to 'the third of april is my birthday'.
ok, everybody should remember that now, no excuses.
euro 2008 has started and the matches tonight should be the most exciting yet. romania vs france, netherlands vs italy. the group of death they call it because 3 of europe's big soccer nations are in the same group. but i can't watch every match although i have the channel. arghh, agonising. "sergeant, my house got euro channel. we book out together then come my house watch lah!"
that could only be possible if my sergeant is zixuan. haha.
so yea, that sums it all up. enjoying the time i have left as a civilian. wish me luck in my national service, pray that i get into a good coy and thereafter a slack vocation. okok? thank you very much.
signing out and booking in,
andy.
