Knowing who you are - is knowing your past and ultimately your future

its been almost two weeks since i went out of course, still languishing in the agony that is Tekong. But the extra time has helped to put things into perspective and pull me back from the brink of depression. It'll be a matter of time before i get out of the horrid place for good. the whole damn experience has strengthened my belief in my identity and the values i stand for. there is nothing the SAF can do to change that. I know my role models, who i am and what i will be. just so happens none of it has anything to do with the SAF. or even this shit hole to be precise.

For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught.
To say the things he truly feels;
And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows I took the blows -
And did it my way!


been going for sevens over the past 2 weekends. SCC preliminaries and the IRB Sevens. i miss being out there on the field, part of a team that has tradition, will and dedication. unlike in the army where you're always thrown into a unit with screwed up commanders and filled with people of all sorts of attitudes, some good most terrible, all unwilling to be there just like yourself. gonna try and spend more time with the juniors - they lost in the finals by 2 tries. they went to sleep in the first 3 minutes i guess, absolute screw up but i guess no one would actually expect a team to play sevens completely using crash ups and pick n gos. the j2s are good enough to retain the Police Cup but there's still work to be done. hopefully i can try to be there to help em out. looks like life's back to the same old story and i ain't complaining heh.
