Why Are You Here?

Childrens...

Alright, finally this week managed to end without any major hitches.

For your info, I am currently clearing my leave and offs on and off instead of blocks so it currently leave me with some spare time to indulge in other interests.

For Tuesday and Wednesday, I was involved in the Yusof Ishak Sec team building games for Sec 1 and 2 respectively. The team building games for Sec 1 was a killer. They were like a bunch of unruly ruffians. Haha. It was so difficult to control them and I have to shout myself hoarse to make myself heard and keep them organized. I was totally shagged out at the end of the 1st event and immediately went home to sleep for the entire day.

Of course with the initial experience of the Sec 1 students, I have some reservations of the 2nd event involving the Secondary 2 students. To my pleasant surprise, they were actually well behaved and listen to instructions readily. I have fun and so did they and we both came off learning something.

While the students learnt something about teamwork and communication, I went thru a lesson myself too. I believed different occasions should call for different attitude and mentality towards the subjects and in this case, we are talking about team building and most importantly having fun. As such, with my EXTREMELY good patience and temper, I'm glad to say I did not scold anyone even when they were rowdy and noisy. Haha. A remarkable difference considering I have to change from normally "COUNSELLING" a difficult soldier, if you get what I mean...in a army to advicing the students instead.

At the same time I am also helping my friend to teach tuition to a P4 kid. Didn't know before tuition pay was so luractive. My 2 days team building which took 1/2 day each earnt me a total of $30. Yup, it may be little but I'm doing it for experience as well as passing time. I went tuition for 2 hours for a single day and earnt the similar amount. WTF!!! Haha Just a series of small steps to help achieve my dream of saving to 10 K.

However, from all the positive points gained from this week, there is a negative and frustrating news to hear from the camp. Just when the morale of the platoon is getting better and the performance is improving, 1 stupid cock just ruined it overnight by doing something of pure stupidity. Sergeant somemore! In turn, just because of his own action, the company got turn out by the OC. Apparently, all the advices and threats used on him fell on deaf ears instead. Now he reap what he sow. Perhaps a 28 days SOL will do him good and set him thinking!

This is what I hated about the army ever since I enlisted. One should be responsible for his own action but now the whole company have to be drag thru SHIT with him. Yes, if you make a genuie mistake,we are willing to go thru thick and thin together with you. But if you think you can have fun and get away with it, you can go and fuck the dog first before dying...

Moral of the story: you have to die first before you learn how to live better.
