9 More Days

+I've just finished my last duty! It's definitely a load off my shoulder, when you know your remaining days (or nights, rather) left in SAF are totally free! =)))

+With the completion of my last duty, it seems like everything here in Brunei is coming to a closure. We're doing preservation work on our tanks, clearing offs and leaves, packing and taking stock of your belongings, and I'll be signing clearances next week! It's so surreal that the day you have been waiting for for so long is finally arriving. In 9 more days, I will bid farewell to Brunei forever. After I'm back in Singapore, I get 4 days of leave, then it's back to HQ Armour to await my ORD, which is on the 10 of November!

+There's so many things I wanna do when I get back to Singapore! And these include revamping my room, getting a new hp and laptop, learn driving, travel, start singing and composing lessons, get a music related job...and so on! There's just so many possibilities! If there's one thing that Brunei has taught me, it's to not procrastinate and take things for granted. When I was in Singapore, I had all these ideas in my head too, but I just wasn't motivated enough to bring them into action. But now, I've learned that you have to just follow your heart and do whatever you want to do! Live your life!

+And for my friends who will still be in Brunei after I leave, take care, good luck and don't think so much. Your time will come soon. Treat Brunei like a train ride, people get on, people get off. For now, the train has reached my station and I'm getting off. The next stop, will, hopefully be yours. =)

+Oh yes, with much irony, seeing as how much I despise SAF, I have been presented with the "BEST SOLDIER AWARD" at the monthly Commandant Parade! LOL! So I'm best soldier for the month of September and my picture is shown in the cookhouse for the entire month of October. Hahaha! Just goes to show that hard work pays off! =)))
