Sunday 2 October 2011
And finally, it's October, the month I've been waiting for. POP is in 1 week but with rehearsals in the way, there's still quite a bit left to go through.
Achievements for the past week had been incredible. First, I was accepted to the Military Police vocation, meaning I have a relatively high chance of getting into the Military Police after Sergeant Cadet School (SCS). Second, being the last runner in the chain of command relay, I managed to cross the finishing line first. The feeling was something I've never experienced before. With more than 200 people shouting my name, it was just an amazing feeling. That contributed to 6th company winning the games day. Lastly, 6th company capped off a fine week by winning the drills competition, against all odds.
Just 4 months in and the feeling of graduation comes back to me all over again. Though not as emotionally attached as I was to my poly friends, it's still goodbye; something I wish I won't have to say in my life. We went through the good times and HELL together. Thank you
6th Company Platoon 3 03/11.
