the observations of daily occurrences and the narration of my mundane life

profile
i am fairly fair, i like to listen to music a lot. all sorts of music ranging from classical all the way to metal. i am a fickle person and i am quick to anger but quick to forgive as well.
this blog is to entertain myself and people like me, who are gonna be damn bored after jan/feb intake of army boys.
i hate aggressive ah bengs who always try to pick a fight. and romantics who don't really care much for love.
i believe in peace, love, music, and seizing the day.
i hope the contents of this blog will not offend people yup tts all!

well here i am writing again in a long long time. not really because i had a sudden revelation really, more because i finally have the time to do this.
anyway, this post is somewhat an update of my life so far! since i've been rather estranged from everyone else after this whole year of busyness, thought it'd be good so u all know how i'm doing. of course, i'm gonna be free soon :) so i can get to know what all of you have been doing too!
so...
army life
officer cadet course is finally ending! after 9 months of horrid outfield after outfield, it's over! if all goes well i'm going to commission in a weeks time and stay at SAFTI as an ATDO (assistant training development officer). big words huh, haha basically it's 8 to 5. WHOOOO. so my "army life" is kinda ending i think. i mean, i'll still make my job meaningful and strive to change the lives of the men under me in a good way, but i guess really no more outfields and chiongsuaing in the mud and hills with my guys. which is quite a bittersweet feeling tbh. i'm already missing it.
personal life
i have a deprived personal life la seriously. i essentially have one and a half days a week for my personal life, which is ridiculous. so i really have to prioritise and all, which is why i havent been catching up with many of my friends. of course, there are other factors as well, like the fact that everyone's changing and sometimes it really takes too much effort to get past the initial awkwardness with some friends. which is why it's a cause for celebration that im getting 8 to 5 so i have more time for the people around me!
i should list out things that i'm planning to do now that i have more time, but apparently theres a phenomenon where if you list out things u wanna do and show it to other people, you derive satisfaction from this akin to completing the task in the to do list, and somehow lowers the chance of you actually completing the task. so nvm. hahaha. maybe i'll list out those things when i've done them!
academics
boooooriiing. i hated looking up on all the different uni courses and whatnot and the hassle of applying. i mean, i know everyone hates it, but my case is really quite bad. didnt apply last year cos of that, and this year only cos my mum was screaming at me about it every 5 secs, and cos yeeying called me when i was in army to tell me it was the last day, then i applied on the last day. horrible right i know. haha.
ANYWAY. back to where i was, i'm applying nus ntu engineering and smu business! inclination more towards engineering but still undecided! and still thinking about just taking a teaching scholarship and taking physics. hmmm.
and then again a lot of people tell me i dont look like a teacher/engineer. more like a HR/PR/business sort. ah wdv! got one more year to think. anyone that can shed a light on my case just tell me pls!
