Retardant

bleh, haven't run in so long, almost died today. damn. don't like running, but know i have to do it.

NS is just generally slow, doesn't matter whether you're in Tekong or in SOA, as long as its NS, the days feel retardedly long. when you look at the clock, you go "wow, its 2 o' clock, should be ending the day in a few more hours!" then a little while later, after you pore through the many lecture notes, you take a second glance and scream inside "WHAT its only 2.30! How! Why? DAMN" and you continue facebooking to pass the time (people on facebook know EXACTLY what i'm talking about :D)

On the flipside, 3SGT Chris did say today "Its a nice place to be. When you know you've done your studying, you have an office and a stable income, you don't have a worry in the world" and its kinda true. for now, now that my applications have been sent, and i don't really worry greatly about my Ammo Tests, i can just be happy, arrange meet ups, and look for interests i've always wanted to try. Was just telling Wendy that now's the time! the perfect opportunity to go pursue our interests, cuz we're "in transit" neither in Uni, nor looking for a job, we're just waiting, and this time can be well spent to find ourselves!

i'm adjusting quite well to the people in SOA. I just hope i'm not an elitist, and can only relate, click, and get along with people that are more educated, would be quite sad if that's the case... but that's why empathy is such a difficult skill to aquire, and hopefully if i go into the world more often, i can figure out how to understand more people. this leads up to sunday's social work, going with rag to serve food to the elderly, haven't done something like this in a while, if all goes well, maybe next time can get more people to do something and return to society!

so... even though things are slow, i'm having a good time cruising along, and lapping up every minute i have to myself :) "its a good time to be"
