No point crying over spilled milk

Rarely awake at such a time. Its because I have been out the whole of last night. Had quite a nice talk with buddies and new found friends.

And I think I have rheumatism in my left wrist. I cant remember which wrist I fractured but my left wrist hurts quite a bit whenever the weather is cold.

Recently, I have several encounters in which Christianity becomes the stumbling block in the progression of one's relationship. Im not writing this post to bash the religion, but only to share my views. Although Im not a Christian myself, I've spent two years in a Methodist school to know some very basic commitment worshipers have to abide by.

Christians are bounded by the commitment that their other half must be a Christian as well, otherwise they resign themselves to the fate that non believers suffer. How strictly they adhere to those commitments very well depend on how devoted they are. I believe most of us know what that fate is, so I wont state it explicitly. Yet, I cant fathom their thoughts, or their reasoning, but is this worthwhile to make the exchange? It is not easy to meet someone you can share your joy and woes with and to forsake such an relationship would seem wasteful. How sure can one be that there will be another such an person appearing?

Im in no position to judge.

So, the first ICT came to a conclusion, and without fail, not without shenanigans from the rifle companies. Their blunders can be so blatant that makes you question their commitment. Not that we are committed, but at least we dont leave controlled equipment around which their unaccountability would definitely warrant a stay in the detention barracks.

The purpose of the ICT was "back to basics", and the training programs adhered to that, reminding us the times we had during signals institute. Of course, the stark difference was the intensity and the work we have to do. The lessons conducted by the trainer was filled with laughter, mainly because the trainer was fond of cracking jokes and making sexual connotations with reference to signal set parts and of course having uncle-nephew relationship with one of our platoon mate, continually verbal harassing him.

What caught my attention, was the trainer's attempt to "convert" us to their thinking. In my opinion, brainwashing doesnt have any significant effect on us, since we already harbour intense hatred for the system. Yet, I found this couple of lines profounding: "All of you are military personnel, and just T-Loan to the civilian world to raise our GDP. Otherwise, why do you have to report to camp when activated?" I wanted to argue that, but knowing it would be fruitless (since he holds a higher rank and will ultimately have the final say), I didnt do so to prevent unnecessary time wastage.

I would initally dispute the first part of the statement and explain that briefly. We are spending the bulk of our lives out of army camp, and that reporting to camp are forced onto us. How are we considered to be military personnel when we are doing it unwillingly?

On the other hand, when I thought about the second sentence, I came to a conclusion. "Family". I believe all of us are more concerned about the civilian life as we are all studying now. We're all frustrated at having an ICT right smack in the middle of our holiday which disrupts all our activities and plans. Yet when we get out to society and pursue our career and ultimately start our own family, the mindset will change inevitably. And this will perhaps be the time when we assume the role of the military personnel. To be honest, I was quite touched when we out-pro and saw this NS-men cuddling and playing with his baby.

To end off, a quote from the trainer again:
"If you are not going to protect your family, who else is going to?"

I cant believe you betrayed our trust. Isnt that night suppose to be a all guys night out and we're suppose to keep anything, including what we talked about to ourselves? To think you blurt it out without considering the consequences. How are we suppose to trust you from now on?

FML

Failed to get any crystals for my experiment today. What else is going to go wrong for me?

I never fail to question my decision to take double major each semester when I get my results. Is it really a wrong step to take? Only time will tell.
