A real entry for once
Well, its been awhile since i put up a proper blog post, so i've decided to maybe try my hands on doing something right for once. Shit, its been too long since i've really done any thinking, but of late, it seems that everything may just turn out alright So, onward brave soul, as i look into what i did over the past week, bringing bad the horrible memories and the things which may actually have some worth to it.
The week started out bad. My weekend was cut short by guard duty and my guard rest was punctuated with irritating phone calls and the constant nagging of my CSM. Oh well, that's the army. I find it rather amazing, that when you're half alseep and delirious from the lack of things, you tend to agree to many things without you even knowing it. So when my buddy called me asking me to take something out of the bunk for him, i just replied 'Yeah' in a really sleepy voice, hopiong that somehow it would make him go away and stop talking. When i woke up, i couldn't even remember what he said to me. Kind of crazy, but i think a person who was up for the last 24hrs ought to be allowed to get at least some sleep.
Most probably the highlight of the week must have been the out-sea training which my company conducted on thursday. 13 assault boats, 1 mission. Travel to Seletar Island, check out navigational lights, try not to get into any trouble with the coast guards of either Malaysia or Singapore and don't drown. It turned out alright, but i had to forgo sleep again the night before because i was on duty, again. Seriously, i wonder who plans these duties. When i find out, his nballs are mine. Haha. Deprived of sleep and basic human neccesities, i was beginning to feel like a zombie. My trainees said that i was prone to extreme mood swings during this time and that one moment i was screaming my head off at them, the next i was there encouraging them to do better. Weird thing, the human mind is.
So after another crazy week, the weekend was a very welcome relief. Reached home on friday night and slept all the way through till 11 the next morning. Was late for a lunch appointment with my PC and upperstudy, but it was ok, cos they came late too. We tend to live on rubber time these days, but i think it suits me a bit. Rubber time, what a beautiful concept. Had fun, but i guess that Sunday was better. It has been too long since we last met. Yeah. I enjoyed myself quite a bit more than i have had for quite awhile. Had lunch, took a walk around town for a bit, she bought some stuff for school work. Yes, so it was a simple Sunday out, but still it felt real good, somehow.
So yeah, that kind of sums up my week. The new week is coming, which means even less sleep, more stress and maybe even a few extras to sign, who knows? But there is still the weekend to look forward to. A toast, to a beautiful week, which i throughly enjoyed and to the most beautiful person around.
