::tOmMoRrOw. +h3 sT@r+ oF 5S|r::

having OM course now. Not say the course very useful especially when it comes immediately after we commission as officers and no rest days were given after 2 weeks of intensive training on drills for the parade. The attention span for most of us during the course was short. I guess the 2 days wasnt realli productive. Half a day more and the course would finish. Cant wait to play lan wif my friends including my gf later at Paradiz centre.. haha first time playing wif a big group of pple. Cant wait to beat FRANK at every game i challenge him! muahaha. Hopefully all these can make mi forget abt my fear going to 5SIR tmr. well i tink its normal dat i feel this way im quite sure everyone feels the same way on the first day of sch etc.

5SIR here i come. but believe mi im not realli keen in going there.. be it the people there im not realli sure myself. hopefully i juz put in the best effort i can gif!

:..d4y 0n3 aS an OfFic3r..:

Sir, Yes Sir!

Things turned out ok on the first day as an officer. As i walked to Delta wing, i recieved 2 salutes from the junior wings. Haha. Somehow, i felt different as i walked filled wif pride. The day started off around 0830hrs and Cpt Ang + mAjor Ben conducted a Waltz lesson (somewhat crash course) so dat we wun lose face in front of our dates. Everyone was enjoying themseleves making fun of each other playing roles as the guy and girl. Although it was a simple dance, some pple juz cannot get the steps right haha.

Being an officer is realli different. Not only i can walk anywhere i wan, everyone in OCS look at us differently. With great powers come great responsibility. Once again, i reminded myself to be humble.

Booked out at 4pm and had to rush to princess house cos she wasnt feeling well. her temperature was 38.2 degrees but once i reached her house, her temperature dropped. See the magical powers i haf muhahah. Hopefully she is fine after i spent quarter of the day wif her. Day 2 coming soon......

=!2LT RoYcE!= w|+h a sCreWed uP p4r4d3...

!FINALLY!
Its finally over! The commissioning parade is finally over! woohoo im on top of the world. Feel so relieved that i haf no more parade rehearsals, no more "hen-ta-ka-ki" on the spot, no more full run downs. REJOICE!
BUT.......
Despite all these happiness, i felt quite disappointed on the proceedings of the parade. On the whole the parade was one BIG joke! All our efforts we put in for the past 2 weeks had gone down the drain over wad had happened during the parade!
1. Firstly, i felt that the march past was sucky, well mayb it onli appiled my contingent. dun noe abt the rest. All wasnt in dressing and the swinging of the arms was not consistent! (despite many rehearsals to correct these problems!)
2. Our ber-hen-ti after the march past was screwed up.
3. 3 people in the parade fainted!!! Apparrently, 1 fell asleep and picked himself up only when he found out wad he had done!
4. 2 people fell asleep during the President's speech!!!! causing them to lose grip of their M16s. Can u imagine how loud the impact of the M16 hitting the ground was.... TWICE!
5. On the whole, all the drill movements and rifle drills were not sharp and not together.
6. Contingent 1 and 7 went on a frenzy when marching into the parade square singing the OCS too fast. None of us could hear the speed of the song as everyone was shouting out the song causing the march in to be chaotic!
So, i guess wadever i juz said sums it all up abt the proceedings on the parade huh. Cant imagine isn't it?. All the blood and sweat enduring all the parade rehearsals all went down the drain!. Can you imagine, we had 12 full run downs b4 the actual thing and still we cock up! To the cadets who fell asleep: Thanks for making my parade a memorable one, i will never forget wad happen on the 23rd of Jan 2005! One word describes them : DISGRACE!
Well, its all over now. No pt crying over split sour milk. What is done has already been done. I am now a young 2Lt and i noe what lies ahead of me requires much more responsibility and decision making! i must prepare myself so dat i can prove to people that carrying balls is not everything!
