NS TRANSITION COURSE IS OVER.
YES I HAD TO PUT THAT OUT.
To think 3 weeks ago, I was fretting like a bitch in heat because I didn't know what to expect dipping my toes back to Clementi Camp again after a year and a half! It frightened me. And I haven't done live firings in such a long time. I was as rusty as a fugly AR15. Lol.
Learnt new skills such as how to handle a SAW gun (yours truly is SAW gunner, hoorah!), though methinks the SAW is a bitch. Had a tiring section live firing and ended off the course with IPPT and combat shoot, which were both messed up beyond my control. Though the times spent chatting/bitching with the other guys was a truly fun (and dirty) experience!
Almost a month left to ORD on the 5th of December! Let's make these last few days a memorable and exciting one together! HWAITING! (:
Hail Mary.

Second Chances
How do you relate to second chances?
"... the fear of failing I can relate to. I do have the sense of wanting to succeed to please myself as well as others. I can understand fully that feeling that the second chance is more frightening than the first. Even though I know what's at stake, I force myself to say yes, because I don't like to be a prisoner to any kind of fear; that feels worse than the fear itself." - Hugh Jackman
What's life, if not for second chances. The ability to right the wrong, to create something for oneself, something that expresses ourselves for whom we "truly" are.
Hail Mary.
