attC.end. interestingnews. birthdayinadv(:

i cant really believe that my 7 days of attc are over. its too fast. like my friends said. its like a block leave. only that its faster and well, you get to spend it at home. the last 2 days were really spent at home. did designing stuff and watched alot of tv and youtube, together with upperbody training down at the gym and well, hours of me being quarantined by the pool doing absolutely nothing. i must say i recovered quite quickly but mum fell sick over the weekend and yeah she had fever cough and flu. glad shes better now and well, i just hope i dont get it when i go back to camp. tomorrow reporting back, then booking out at lunch for specialist appointment, then booking in and then booking out in the evening again to come home, rest, and then im reporting to tekong thurs morning 0730. its really kinna sian to go back to tekong, but im really having mixed emotions about it. whatever the case, its kinna nice to go meet everyone again and stuff. trying to look at the brighter side of things. i honestly miss my platoon mates abit. the chats and the conversations and the friendships. the knee’s honestly been bugging me abit. (and i honestly think ive reached the state where i know that there is pain, but its become tolerable, i almost f care it) and its because its not really recovering, which makes my thoughts about recourse that much harder. im definietly not going to wreck my brain just thinking about it. but at the same time, im not gg to let this opportunity just slip away without weighing things out. like the chat yesterday, i think my army journey’s like the pixel. its time to just trust god and let him slowly unravel the bigger picture.

in addition, i must say that the newpaper has been very interesting lately. especially in yesterdays issue and todays issue. the issue about the golden mile complex and its “gloryholes” in toilets have finally surfaced after i had previously read/ heard about the issue somewhere before.  in addition, the idea of turning golden mile into golden 118 is rather absurb- from healthcare hub to strip shows and cineplex?!?. but well, im sure if its a good idea, this proposition will eventually become a reality. liverpool news has also cluttered most of the pages in the sports section- and im honestly quite shocked to how many fans the club has in singapore. the news about the boy, his mum and his stepfather is also quite sad and the article on how ivy named her kids was also surprising! i believe the latest news is about the bomb threat on the silkair flight and well, i hope the matter will settle quickly. as you can see, i guess reading has taken up most of my time here at home(: and its been good i guess. celebrated my birthday in advance today too. just in case i cant get out of tekong over the weekend. but if i do get out, i think i’ll celebrate it again! hahahahaha. lastly, i must say that the best thing about staying home is the home cooked dinners and the awesome soup and desserts(: you just cant compare food being mass-produced in industralized cookers and food which took hours to boil and cooked to perfection!
