Remedy Week
Monday, July 14, 2008
Would want to blog earlier/more but was bogged down by this stupid runny nose. It's strange how come every time I go home after a period of staying outside I get the flu bug. That was one of the reasons I dread going home during my hall days...
In-Camp has been really slack this week.. probably as compared the the 1st ICT because this time the training program is spread out over 2 weeks while the last time i was all jam packed into 1. Probably also because the Int Trainer is not around and because of CO's various stunts I'm sitting more into a Bn HQ training-and-coordinating role rather than a planning-for-exercise role.
Though I'm kinda glad the way things have evolved so far.. Most important of which I got more interaction with my Scouts.. managed to work out a balance between setting a high standard of training for NSMen as well as the pegging carrots that come with it. No, I'm not siao-on army. I'm working towards protecting my own ass come 7th Year ICT ATEC.
The best part about ICT is probably getting together with old friends again.. may it be with the branch or with the officer bunch. While the last ICT sleeping late every night was because of gruelling CO conferences (which achieved nothing).. this time we sleep late every night too but all in the name of talking cock outside/inside our bunks till late at night. Boy the things we talk about.. from civilian life to our experiences in different phases of 42. This past one week in camp has probably been a refreshing remedy to the past few weeks of post-all-my-friends-start-working-already loneliness and boredom.
I'm currently crossing fingers for the interview which i just went on Friday. It's seriously a super-uber-fantastic job position and I think the interview went well. In fact, as well as the interview with the other company that I thought I had scored big time. But in the end they only recalled the first-class people for the second round. Damn sian. So this time I'll just keep grounded and not getting my hopes high to prevent the possibily of having my hopes dashed and throats slashed once again.
For now, I'm hitting the sacks in preparation for another wayang show tomorrow morning - Convocation/Commencement. As many say, it's a ceremony more for my parents than for myself. Why? Well.. just say that my close friends are all not going to be there tomorrow morning.
Another agenda for tomorrow is to do a market study of how many poor Chem Engine souls are still unemployed. I have my own sets of grieviences and explanations for this current phenomena.. but I shall reserve them to myself till the setting up of my private blog.
Yes, I'd be jumping ship soon. Figured out that once I step into the vicious working world maintaining a low internet footprint would be wise. Keep you guys posted.
I'm actually looking forward to go back to Sungei Gedong.
Haha.
