calm after the euphoria
Saturday, February 16, 2008
so ORD has come and past
the euphoria of getting back my pink ic
plus leaving jurong camp and the combat engineers
celebrating cny as a civillian once again
catching up with people
meeting up with platoonmates
some still in service, others like me newly liberated
playing boardgames at minds cafe
thats something new to me
i never knew boardgames could be so mind boggling
showed 2 people how my house looks like
brought them to a nice place to eat
good food
good fun and laughter
v day has come and passed
nothing special for me
just silently envious of all those mushy couples
whom cupids arrow have struck
its tortorous trying to get 9 plus hours of continous sleep
cos my body like half awake from bout 7 or 8 am
but i refuse to get fully awake till 10plus am which is the normal time for me
legacy of reveille at 0545
plus breakfast before the sun rises??
looking back
the effects of 22 months are going to last for quite some time
especially the memories
keep thinking back of those times
now slowly but surely
everyones going their seperate ways
some have a robust plan
freelance writing, part time tuition, organiser
others have a found a job already
rite mr koh
others are drifting around
havent found a direction in life
like myself
besides driving lessons
and occasional excercising
i struggle to make use of time
if playing arcade games cost a fraction of the current amount now
i wouldnt mind spending a couple of hours on it daily
but doing that now would certainly mean blowing 20-30 dollars a day
now that i cannot sustain
playing WOW really seems like an attractive deal
after all u can play for hours on end
and only pay a subscription fee a month
i cant find my old red alert2 cd
i wanna play it again and then play yuris revenge
in some ways life under the army
makes things simple for you
you just obey orders without having to think much of what to do
now i have to break out of this thinking and get my brain juices working again
my uni application has been accepted yay!
course in economics
at least somethings confirmed
come july i'll be leaving for aussie
to start a new chapter of mylife
until then .........

5 more days and the end of one chapter
