Back home for the weekend

First week in SISPEC. It has been, how would you say it, interesting. Learnt how to use 2 new weapons (more ways to kill things), made some new friends, ran like crazy (both IPPT and SOC. ouch), learnt how to set up demolitions (cool shit). And they said SISPEC isn't as fun as OCS. Haha. How wrong they are. From what i know, all they do are lectures after lectures after lectures. And on top of that they ahve 3 weeks of confinement. Count it ladies and gentlemen, 3, while i so far have 0 weeks of confinement. Haha.

Despite this, i still feel a bit disappointed i didn't make it there, but i will work on it. No honour loss in being a sergeant, at least i'm doing something rather than slacking in the army. its just so hard sometimes when u wake up in the morning and you see the MI tower in the distance thinking, "i could have been there". But who cares? I'll just work harder in SISPEC. Maybe i can cross over. If i can't, well, its the SAF's loss, not mine.

To those people who think that SISPEC are for losers, i'm going to prove you wrong. To those who think it is nothing proud to traing to be a Non-com, i'll prove you wrong. There is no honour loss. Its just that officers seem to be more successful than us specialist, and they get higher pay. That's about it. I will work hard wherever i am, despite all the obstacles in my path. Nothing will stop me from getting what i want (starting to be repetitive).

Anyway, to my detractors, fuck you understand?
