Well, despite the fact that my grades don't meet the scholarship requirement, the board decided to let me continue on as a provisional SMS scholar for the rest of service term. They could have chopped me off, but they didn't, based on my interview, military performance, but most importantly, thanks to the people who put in a good word for me. Wing Comd, the Army people.. really I couldn't be more fortunate. Anyway, I think in lieu of what Maj Jasper told me, I think there's gonna be zero hesitation. I'm choosing Army as my service, and the vocation probably would be Armour, Infantry, Artillery in that order of preference.
Anyways, yesterday, after the interview, the 6 of us went over to Northpoint to slack and wait for the Artillery visit at Khatib camp. We were in SMART FOUR on the trains. Good grief. Everyone was staring at us. Ladies in armygreen with the Singapura epaulette. Hoho. Must have been a unique sight. Later, Cpt Sylvester told us that we CANNOT sleep in our Smart Four! Damn. We didn't know that. Haha. Anyway I don't think I'll be wearing Smart4 out anytime soon..
Today was good tooooo. Girls team came over to bake an Oreo cheesecake for Mich's birthday. My mom was so amused by them cos they were making such a huge commotion in the kitchen and Ps was sooo exasperated. We were like little kids asking so many questions. Huiying and Leepeng were fighting (as usual) over the grinder and who to pound the oreos. In the end Huiying won. (As USUAL) Funfunfun. Then over to Glutton's Bay at the Esplanade for lots of sinful hawker fare and a short chitchat/sparkler wielding session at Clarke Quay, reminiscent of Regatta 2004. I love the girls. Really. GIRLS, DO YOU HEAR ME. I LOVE YOUUUUU ALL. :) Cya on 8th April!!
Anyways.. I'm beginning to think about some stuff. I glad we really talked today.. clarified some stuff.. and I'm heartened to know that I got things off my chest and told you what I've always wanted to say. :)
