Today was a nicenicenice day. Had a nice time just sitting down at Thai Express and Max Brenner's chocolate bar chitchatting over stick noodles, calamari and chocolate fondue. Company was good - we do get along quite well - and the food was terribly sinful. It was a sluggish, lazy day, but yet its days like these that we really should cherish. It's rare that we actually get to just sit down amidst a nice ambience and just mull time away, blissfully unaware of the people and flurry of activity around us. The sheer indolence of the wind as it playfully caressed the trees, the clouds shifting and floating.. everything was perfect today. Perfect R&R.
I can't believe that in less than 2 weeks time, I'll be passing out. BMT phase will soon be over.. 1st March, to be exact. Amazing. 41st WOCC - my extended family over the past 2 months.. we'll all be split up. The Navy people would head to MIDS wing, the Airforce people will go to AIR wing. Only the Army ladies would stay in SIERRA. Honestly, I've more or less decided that I'll stay in Sierra if everything goes well with the dreaded results. It's now the vocation of choice. Armour? Artillery? Guards? Infantry? Signals? What the heck. Like I was just saying today, I hate making decisions, but yet I know the time to take a stand is drawing nearer..
Thinking about the future scares me. Sigh. During my block leave till 20th March, would probably be going abroad.. perhaps to Aussieland, according to daddy. Then I can recce Canberra/Australia National University, and after that take a train to Brisbane or something to visit my aunt. Gold Coast - if nothing goes wrong - here I come!
