Taking A One-Week Break

I have finally reached this very day. For the first time in so many months of NS, I am on leave for the whole week! Reason? Prepare for my driving test on April Fool’s Day, and contemplating on ELove.

If nothing goes wrong, I should be able to pass. I am not setting high hopes though. It all depends on luck. Yes, I don’t quite believe in learning theories and all that. I prefer hands-on experience and the ability to react accordingly. But, sadly, the testers all prefer people who can get through all their ‘hell’ without any much mishap…

Looks like I have to do come planning on what to do for the week. Due to the driving test and the lessons, I think I am over my budget this month. I guess I will just have to cut back on expenditure next month. Yes, eat less = spend less…

Went back to River City Restaurant on Friday for our platoon makan session. Got fed up with a waitress ‘auntie’ with not-that-good services. Sort of disappointed. Last year we went, they treated us like, well, customers. This time, they thought that we were just released from hell. Or perhaps it was the way they ordered the dishes. They kept ordering the same dishes until the kitchen had no more (they said so, I chose to believe). Sometimes, when I go for such ala-carte buffet dinner, I just couldn’t help it but ask myself, is it worth it by eating so much? Eat till you drop? Eat till you have to go to the toilet and throw everything into the toilet bowl or sink? What a wastage of food…

Just came back from guard duty in the morning. I was on IRF duty. We had a turn-out at 2300hrs, and we were required to do the intruder drill. We ‘old birds’ shouted as if we were going to war.. “YA! YA!”… loud and dangerous shouts echoed through the silent night… it was like we were going to kill someone we don’t like (we don’t like BOSes who performs turn-outs with intruder drills…)

Got some time to write some so-called lyrics… here’s part of it..

我真的恨我自己
志气高昂胆子却像只蚂蚁
难道我只能把真心话埋在我心理
让这一切变成一段痛苦的回忆。。。

This is the ‘bridge’ part. The rest? KIV first. The one-week break will settle the rest.
