It's been a while since I blog, ever since I entered the Army. Well, Army life to some may not seem workable, but slowly and surely, with effort and faith in yourself... you will adjust and learn to live life proper.

Aside from the physical regime and the punishment... the fun part of Army is definitely the times when you share the suffering, laughter and knowledge with your buddies, be it in the bunk, platoon or company level. Similar to scouting, a scout makes friends, establishes and maintains harmonious relations... a scout never likes to be alone, except during personal reflection. He is someone who likes to share and mix around with others. So if a scout, is to declare that he is a lonely scout... then he is not a true scout.

There is no "I" in a team. This is constantly re-in force among the soldiers... and similarly to any uniform, sports, classroom and work group. 2 brains are better than 1... you multiply that by a few more times, you get a whole team of people having creative ideas.

Well, of coz, there are always good people and selfish people around. No one is bad in nature... just selfish, I guess. As long as one person in a team, decide to go his way, the team will not be as efficient as before. Similarly, in a scout unit... as long as certain members decided to be selfish and do things at their pace or even not assist others, definitely the efficiency and work-rate will be slowly... others will be burden by this act. Even in Army, as long as one person decided to be slow and walk around, instead of run... the timing, cohesion and execution will be gone.

Even in a relationship, as long as one side of the party decided to be selfish and not care of the other person... how can the relationship continue effectively and happily? Isn't it as good as a one-sided love?

As I did my room today, I decided to paste all the past letters, birthday cards, Christmas cards on my cardboard front. It's an unusual thing to do, but since I am bored... I just decided to do so. Reading through the cards and pasting them one at a time... it brings a lot of memories from people like Yan Lin (aka Boi Boi), Jasmine (aka Lucky), Mei Mei, Amanda Jie Jie, Sista and Owl, relatives and more...

The weather is getting hot these days... H1N1 is on-going and now... cough seems to be a common thing in the public. Do take good care of yourself, whoever that reads this. And drink more water...

Special notes:

To My Beloved Dear:
Thank you for taking time off to spend time with me and writing letters to me, through the 2 way notebooks that we somehow created. Haha... I love you and I want you to be happy. Do rest more and drink more water... There is no thing as forever but good things sure last long, only if you want it to. :)

To My Beloved Mei Mei:
Thank you for helping me and going the extra mile as a god-sister. Didn't expect to last this long even after secondary school. I hope this goes on and on. Keep healthy and keep happy too!

To My Other God-sisters:
Apologies for not keeping in contact as frequent due to my NS commitment... I want you ladies to know that you are still remembered and love by me!!! I hope to give some time and meet up with you all too!
