Oh what the heck.
Chinese new year wasn't as good as I expected, but I got more angpaos.. that should make up for it =D
Firstly, I was so god damn lucky to get a guard duty on chinese new year eve. And that means, missing the annual reunion dinner that I nver fail to attend every year. And I hear people speaking about, "Hey, everyone has his fair share in the army, you should do what you should.". Talking about fair share... [rolls eyes]
Nevertheless, guard duty was unexpectedly fun, with CK and Alastair. Cool guys to talk to, gossiping seems imminent given the boring schedule of guard duty. Met a few new friends from platoon 1... blessing in disguise? Haha thanks to Hin Hui from PLT1 for being my guard duty partner.. we are both typical slackers, talking cock here and there... hahaha and the first shift, we received news that checks were gonna come soon so we were quite in a rush haha... the sergeants were really nice; they taught as all they could but there was some mistake so they got scolded when the checks came... the irony of all that we two [Hin hui and me] got praised by the Yankee company sergeant major... rawrr
What we actually did was just, duty, sleep, duty, sleep. NOTHING ELSE! My mp3 nearly ran out of battery after that...
Chinese new year was okay, went a lot of relatives' house to visit, and everyone starts screaming, "Wah Ronald! Bald liao sia! How's army life?"...
The thing that was most worth remembering was the lunch at my paternal grandfather's house. My grandfather's maid whom the whole family refers to as "Auntie Lina" taught me how to cook! I love her cooking; everytime there is a chance, I'll go over to savour her cooking, especially her scrambled eggs and cod fish... yumyum =D
Anyway, fruitful new year, I actually have a resolution now, that is to get into OCS. =)
Cheers and happy new year to all
