Today marked the end of Service Term. =)
I'm happy for my friends who fought the good fight, who went through the gruelling 24 km route march held at 2120 hrs that lasts all the way till 0530 hrs.. which ends at the top of Elephant hill.
On my part, I feel I'm no longer in low spirit with regards to the path one has to take to become an officer. When I see xueyang, yaitai and alvin, in their genuine expression going through the tough and rigorous outfield, and still there to encourage me to fight on when I get back on course to become an officer.. I just couldn't let them down!
Some went to armor, some to signals, some to logistics, some to infantry and some to engineers.. on the last day when we were together, it's heartwarming to hear they will come back to my commissioning parade. They would have long been a 3 months old Officer by then.
For once, I felt the sense of brotherhood. Thank you all for giving me the strength, the motivation to fight on! I will never forget them. I have learn much, about life, about people, truly I've grown.
I'll never what Yai Tai told me. I will remember =) Am I overly friendly? to the extent I appeared too boyish? I believe so. Maybe it's about time.
Till then, be it Army Wing or Air Wing ( which I genuinely wish to join the Airforce), I have more reasons to keep going. Never going to let my brothers down.
