Why Are You Here?

Early Christmas

And so Ex. Praxis ended off well with everyone in good mood because we received fairly good reviews from the testers.

It suddenly came across my mind how wonderful it might be if we can cease to perform our monotonous duty and ORD immediately once Ex. Praxis is over.

I could still remember the same feeling happening to me once I completed the 24km route march that signifies the end of the Basic Military Training. My OC for that time “Alpha Coy” echo out the common sentiment he experienced during his time as a recruit but he stressed that life still move on, we shall all be splitting up to fulfill the path we are destined to take.

Since then, in a blink of an eye, 1 year has passed but it seems only like yesterday.

And I was brought down to earth immediately after the seniors commander urged us to be ever vigilant and perform our duty well because there will not be any testers appearing on the scene should anything happen to warn us of the impending danger.

When our big boss is happy, anything is possible when any reasonable requests are put forward to him.

A lot of incentives/rewards that are long overdue to us are granted and I suddenly felt Christmas arriving earlier this year than usual. (Btw, I kenna duty on Christmas Eve till Christmas afternoon. Chow Barney!)

Let’s hope life will be better in future for those who are going to complete their exams, for those who are going to ORD soon, for those who are still stuck with national service, for those who are currently working at the mercy of their ever demanding bosses, for the Whole Wide World la!
