Blog Moved

Out of extreme boredom, I preoccupied myself lately with creating a brand new blog - a more professional and personal site. Still haven't gotten around to designing the theme for the blog yet, nor have I planned how the content is gonna be laid out, but, well, the blog part of it is functioning.

Yep. It's the same place as my tech blog. I decided to merge both of them together. The personal blog was getting too mindless, while the tech blog was getting very too ... erm, well I don't like it anyhow.

This blog design was nice while it lasted though - very colourful and anime-ish. I want my new blog to be just as anime-ish. =D

Blogging

Hardly feel like blogging nowadays. Lack of interest, time and content. There isn't much time for introspection. Every thing is just assigned a simple, "I am at wrong, but that was a good lesson; I will try again next time".

When life is moving at a hyper pace, and your physical and mental endurance are stretched, you really don't think of the past, but the present and future. The present is where you suffer, the future is where you hope. The past? For lessons learnt that ought not to be repeated.

On a sidenote, it's pretty interesting how I suddenly hear new tunes and melodies playing in the background of sounds I'm very familiar with. The music sounds so refreshingly crisp, like I had brand new stereo speakers or something. [In fact, I have a mono speaker, since one side spoiled.] The magic of outfield camping and NS life. After days of singing army songs, especially when singing one single song for a 4km route march continously, music is like .... well, music to my ears. I wish I could play my guitar too, but .... the strings broke. The strings keep breaking, even the new ones. Just one week of changing and they broke. I've ran out of back-up strings, so I can't play anything. Sian...

Simple pleasures of life

2 half-days, 1 full day - that's just about how much time i have. Coming back from camp, the one thing i want to do the most is ..... to sleep. That's the prized relaxation i yearn for in a bookout. If I get guard duty and miss a good day's sleep as a result, i'll be really pissed. Just as i got last night, when my hacking cough stopped me from getting my rest. I was like, fuming at midnight, lolz, just pacing around, willing myself to stop coughing.

Sleep, and a good shower. A long, warm shower. And to eat in peace. It's just that being deprived of such things for 5 days in the army, such simple acts suddenly become so desirable. Home never felt so good before.

And very soon, the break will be over, and i'll get back in for another round of training. The training's already starting to plateau, while we haven't. Less suffering, more camaraderie. Of course, there remains some stuff that just keeps upping the difficulty level. But more or less, it's getting easier to cope with. It's kinda amusing to see how much my own attitude regarding NS life has changed in a few short weeks. There has never been a better time to serve NS. =D Other than next year.
