Got a nice suprise in my email today.

Some team members in an online music project have completed their parts to a song we've been working on.

I present to you: To far away times

Somewhere/
Beyond the rain and autumn plains, the snow/
That litters the countryside/
I find a piece of you

And somewhere/
Beyond the frozen fields, I clearly see/
The end of our misery/
A part of the place we knew

And slowly down through the fire, burning/
Into this darkness I fall/
Your presence right here beside me, yearning/
Through it all

dokoka
ame to aki matsu no mukou
inaka no yuki ni
anata mitsukeru

dokoka
kotta hara no mukou, atashi
mijimesa musabi
shiteta dokoro ni

And as the shadow dawns upon us/
All I seem to think about is/
Where our hope has faded away/
Into

kage wo miedashitara
kangaeru dake wa
shioreta nozomi
doko ni...

And somewhere/
Beyond the mountains below the horizon sun/
A life that has just begun/
A life we’re meant to know

dokoka
ame to aki matsu no mukou
inaka no yuki ni
anata mitsukeru

Now my holiday camp truly begins hahaha.

I love SOC.

Wish this knee and ankle will hold up... or else.... downgrade for me woohoo.

Rifle drilss are fun.

Yeah and I can't really think of anything to type again.

Raining like hell yesterday morning.

Winds so strong and cold.... made me remember the times when I was rowing my K1 in kallang. The rain, super strong winds and chills made you wanna paddle for your life just to keep warm.

I think that's my favourite weather to row in, just because it makes you feel so alive.

We're in the shelter now, bracing for another cat one. SIT test is pretty interesting. Managed to keep a low profile so far. I need to score as low as possible.

More leg problems too. Was carrying a stretcher then saw LKY in trouble with his so I hoisted his over my shoulder during the 4km fast march.

Took in another buddy into our tent... Hubert. He apparantly took the wrong fieldpack and is missing tent pins so he can't set up his own.

I so wanna watch star wars this week end!!! Argh!!!! And my brave fencer musashiden 2 DVD is not working... going to change it on sat of something. Shit... need to pass the wristpod to dennis too.

So I watched starwars over the weekend.

Was super cool haha. And I changed my disc... but it still doesnt work wtf.



Going into camp in about 1 hour... going to enjoy my last 2 weeks in bmt.

So tired.

Didn't get enough sleep this weekend, going back to camp in 30 mins time.

They said the worst part of bmt is over already, now that field camp has just finished.

Melvin helped me burn naruto and bleach. Managed to watch the series... damn sad.

Can't really think very much of what to log... I've been keeping a diary ever since bmt started. Maybe one day I'll have the time to type it all out.

Here's an extract.

4th day of field camp. Out field makes you appreciate all the things in life that you've taken forgranted.

I want so badly to get into a good rpg on my ps2, lie on my bed with the aircon on, and enjoy....

I always thought I'd stay cool without a problem. But Sunday's incident... seeing him on the ground and mud screaming... then having to stand there as he continued to scream in pain... I just ran out to him, tears in eyes, didn't care about protocol at that time.

Some of them look at me and call me their champion, I know they try to draw strength from me. Sometimes that gives me strength. Sometimes I wonder if I can really keep it up.

The path I have to take is unlike what they have in mind. Forsaking prestige again, to do what I truly want.

Life is too short to do what other people tell you to do. I'll fight for this path.



god have mercy on anyone who tries to deter me.

Shit. So fast.

Have to go in already.

All preperations complete. Everything should go smoothly for these 2 weeks.

Part of me wonders whats the point in booking out.

Still need to book in so soon anyway.

Next week is field camp... won't be able to see mainland for 2 weeks again.

1. SOC is damn fun.

2. I got some slight rashes doh.

3. I'm starting to like my platoon more.

4. Sprained my ankle and left shin pacing with raf during 3060 run.

5. Almost sprained my fingers too training to do fingered pushups.

6. I think my strength dropped alot.


Went to kallang to see teamnyp train today.

I think army is making me dumb... find I'm lacking the usual tactfulness in my comments. Maybe the environment is making me communicate in a much more straight forward manner... not good. But at least I can spot this and correct it.

Abit dissapointed in some aspects... but also proud of the new exco in some aspects. Attendance for the guys is getting bad again... environment lacks discipline. Maybe this is something that everyone has to fall for once in order to correct. Sometimes advise will only help so much, the hand needs to be burnt to register a confirmed analysis of the situation.

Soon I'll have to return to the nteam to continue my journey.

Heh, stop worrying la, they'll be fine.


Went to watch a movie after training.

Triple X.

10.30pm... lights off time...

And I fell asleep in the cinema... shit la...

Tried so hard to keep eyes open.. but cannot.

Good job... SAF.
