Please can i have one too?

la vie en vert

It's been 2 weeks already, so 7 more to go. POP is a long long time away but we are growing as a section. Our platoon's alright but right now is the time to step up. Pull ups are always good, there is a slow and steady improvement, but Iylia's still the man. Wanted to watch Geisha today but the poor response meant that it's postponed to the next book out day. Book outs are always the happiest days in army. Wonder what the others are doing. Could have gotten home a lot earlier yesterday if not for me forgetting to bring back the home keys and having to go Beach Rd to get some army necessities. Heard that our first income is already in, nvm, will check it for certain later. Must pack for book in soon. Ronald also happens to be armskote i/c like me. HAHA! What coincidence. Sometimes meal times are just like ri reunions. I hope we get more admin time, more pull ups, and earlier book out slots. Solat is not a problem. Jamak and khuf are really beneficial. I only wonder whether the others solat too. Aye. Army really destroys your english, so must keep myself mentally stimulated. I'm bringing The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime by Mark Haddon this time, so I hope i'm ok. and good to go!

except for the tekong cough!

hair today gone tomorrow

The best of 2005. The personal hat-trick against CJC with only 20 mins left that won us the game after going down 2-1. And the 4th place finish. numero dix-sept, c'est moi.

The best of 2004. Lifting the Police Cup after 5 years of nothingness. Long live the Green Black & White!

7 Jan beckons

The latest edition of Time is indeed a genius. It is going to analyse what AMBITION is, using science and so on.

My AMBITION right now is to be a good soldier. Haha.

And I must also remember to always SOLAT!
SOLAT IS POWER, BROTHER!

the good fight

2006 beckons! Resolutions? Not for me. I think it is a little way too phony to make resolutions. Sounds like you've been living the past year in regret, like many many things didn't work out for you. I think whatever happens must have happened for some reason. I believe we must continue to fight the good fight and not just succumb to little distractions, such as minute failures, to deter us from ever reaching all those goals we so proudly proclaim to everyone. However one chooses to think that the good fight is all airy-fairy and stuff that belongs to kids, I believe the good fight is there in all of us. We must learn to like what we already have, not just want to have all that we like. We are humans; God is the miracle worker and has set us on a path to achieve His grand scheme of things. Appreciate your religion, Muslims, it is after all the greatest gift that God has given you.

Also remember that time does not dictate you, you can choose to completely ignore it. You are the essence here, not time. You set the pace. You should endeavour to do all that you want right here right now in this God-given wonderful world. But on a sidenote, even if you believe with all your heart that noone's watching, God's eyes are fixated on you, just so you know.
