On pragmatism.

While randy is having fun in OCS [aka Often Commit Suicide] with some of our friends, and while the others are enjoying themselves in SISPEC [aka Suffer In Silence Plus Extra Confinement], your author here had been posted to 41SAR [aka Suckthumb and Run] - 41st Bn Singapore Armoured Regiment to be an AI trooper. "Let's waste time, chasing tanks, around our land." excerpt from Chasing Tanks by Slow Petrol.


Anyway, back to track. Have you ever noticed that there are many ways to do a certain thing and its almost nearly always impossible to tell which way is the correct one? Take for example, studying. Realise that some people like to mug 24/7, some mug last minute, some mug on weekends, some mug in school, some mug at home. So many ways, and most of which work. So this proves that it doesnt matter how u do sth, as long as u do it well and do it right in the end at the same time enjoy doing so. That's pragmatism for u folks. So do what pleases you, for after all it's ur life and u better jolly well make sure u live it ur way. Because everybody dies in the end.

block leave

Your friendly author here has finally decided to get off his lazy butt and write an update for this blog which no 1 probably reads anymore! It's okay, we all do crazy things now and then. In fact, we probably do crazy things all the time and no 1 notices because they do it too, and nobody is ever conscious of the fact that they're crazy. for example, 22 grown men getting paid millions a week to chase a ball around on a field.

okay, down to business. first, yours truly and my co-author are no longer the lowest lifeforms in green uniforms. we are now the SECOND lowest lifeforms, which is a decent improvement. we are now supposed to be on leave, but we forgot to update for so long that we are now going back into the army after our leave is over. yours truly is off to start his career as a naval officer trainee, while our dear friend is off to be an armored infantry trooper! all the best to him, hopefully the tank doesn't squish him.

today, i had the best night's sleep in quite a while. i credit it to my spleen, because i have no idea what it does and it rarely gets any credit anyway. i am now full of energy and unable to sleep so i'll die tmr reporting to SAFTI MI, WARRIORS' HALL.

my parents are bugging me to get off the com though, and i have 0 creativity left in my brain processes after surviving 3 months on the "YOU DO WHAT I SAY" environment of tekong, so byebye for now, hope im funnier another time!
