In a blink of an eye, we have come to the second month of 2012. Was motivated to update this blog after having a chit-chat session today with my colleagues in school.
So what have I been up to since the last post? Well, I was busy being an Auxillary Instructor (AI) for a combat course for new 8SIR trainees, that took up an entire month. Though I felt really bored going through a combat course again, it did give me a chance to look back on my NS life through the eyes of a commander, while giving advice to the new men that were posted to Clementi. Furthermore, I had the chance to make new friends and build on past friendships, I think that to me was something important that I took away from army after I ORD-ed in December. ORD was bitter-sweet, I finally saw my pink IC again after 22months. It was something great to look forward to indeed. Thanks guys, you guys kept me going through all the ups and downs during our NS life.
Took a break in December and now I've started my new job --- relief teaching back in school. It's been a great few weeks so far, and I've made great friends with whom I don't think I'd ever have a chance to had I not started relief teaching. You guys know who you are! :)
But I gotta say, the best thing that has happened so far was celebrating my 21st birthday! I was fortunate enough to book 2 hotel rooms at Crockfords Tower and I am very grateful that 20/08 and my VS friends took the time to come down and give me an amazing 21st birthday that I will never forget! Also, to my awesome coffee gang, for taking the time to plan all the surprises for me on the day itself! You guys are amazing! Loved all the presents and cakes (Bakerzin!) that you guys got for me! Appreciate it! Best.birthday.celebration.ever.
Here's to the next few months going well for all of us, wherever and whatever you guys are up to! All the best!
I feel inspired to start blogging again after finding out that people still read this blog! Here's hoping I follow through! Now if only blogger will stop being a bitch... like now... Y MY POST NO SHOW UP IN THE RIGHT COLOUR AND FONT???
Hail Mary.
