Wow, I'm back after 3 weeks confinement, and it feels so surreal. For one, the guys have come in, and Daowei, Gordon and Navin are in my wing :) Been seeing people like Thong, Alan, Mo, Malcolm, Junxu, Daryl around in camp too and it's nice saying hi to people I know in the cookhouse.

As for my service, I've decided.. army it is. Must say that the past 3 weeks have been bloody eventful. I'm sure almost everyone's heard about Colonel Bernard, who passed away suddenly during the Singapore Biathlon. He was the one who put in a good word for my during my Scholarship interview, playing a big part in helping me retain my provisional SMS status despite my not meeting the grade. The interview was the last time I saw him, and then I got the news during the Army recruitment visit. It was a huge shocker, and it really affected me cos I never got to thank him. So we attended his wake and then came another bombshell.. he's Amanda Choo's uncle. Whoa. So.. I know I'm gonna have to gear up in order to do well in Service Term and hopefully get past the 3rd and last interview board in June.

I've been enjoying myself so far.. although now that the girls have all moved to Mids/Air, the 4th level corridor seems strangely empty.. From 22 girls on 3rd Jan, we're now left with 11. Nevertheless.. 41st WOCC would always, ALWAYS have a special place in my heart.
