Once an ACSian–Always an ACSian

My birthday wishes for this year are:

1) Help my unit get through LAB with flying colours

2) Go MSCC and get SGT rank

3) Pass Class3 TP driving test

4) Get a scholarship so can lessen my parents’ burden

5) Get accepted into Imperial Chemical Engineering

6) Good health and luck for all my friends!

Stepping back into the familiar grounds of 121 Dover Road, memories of my 6yrs education in ACS(Indep) rushed immediately into my mind…

Most people would have probably grown tired of hearing me say…
- how much I miss school
- how much I miss those times I spent with my classmates, in particular those in sec4 and yr5-6
- how much I miss those wonderful experiences obtained during activities like centrestage etc.

Yet, I never once fail to admit that I really miss those, in ACS lingo, good times!

Today’s reunion not only brought back those laughter I used to hear along the corridors or in the classrooms, it also brought to me those memories that I hold close to my heart.
1) Joshua Cao’s spontaneous and hilarious performances
2) The unforgettable SAC food (although the famous xiaoji was missing from the menu)
3) Usual small chit-chats about anything under the sun
4) Wonderful teachers I have whom I can call friends now
And many more…

The future is uncertain yet what is certain is that the ACS blood inside the students of Class of 2008 will always be the bond between each and every one of us. We proudly call ourselves ACSians and in Lex’s words: the greatest class ever to grace the school. Never mind the fact that most of us are all around the globe embarking on our next journey of life, deep down inside our heart, we know that we will never walk alone! =D

If you’re alone, I’ll be your shadow. If you want to cry, I’ll be your shoulder. If you want a hug, I’ll be your pillow. If you need to be happy, I’ll be your smile. But anytime you need a friend, I’ll just be me.

So far its been theory lessons on servicing and maintenance…

kinda bored especially when you are a technician trained to repair bronco =( but i guess it cant be helped.

the real stuff will only start next week!

AHM on sunday! lucky i never run the full 21km…phew!

Played nearly 4hrs of soccer 2day! It was really exhausting but at least it was also satisfying =D Cant wait for more soccer to come! Contact me for any games yea? =D

Its been quite some time since i last posted. Many things have happened and changed while there are other stuffs that remain constant.

As usual, army life hasnt changed much since i was posted to Sungei Gedong. It remains that I wake up at 7.15am, morning runs, breakfast, start work, lunch break, finish work and then back to bunk. Well, Im still thankful that Im able to meet former classmates/schoolmates, especially songyeong and huangzi, who certainly brought a different atmosphere to my working environment. Those mornings and afternoons of chatting and laughing, adding to the nights of gyming, indeed helped me stay cheerful.  Luckily, I got a chance to go through GPMG Course and will soon be embarking on Bronco Driving Course. These events certainly add colours to my otherwise mundane and dull life in camp.

Outside camp, Im always enjoying the company of my friends, especially william whom always ‘jio’ me for a game of soccer and/or shopping with late night movies. I just find it regretful that I havent gotten a chance to meet and catch up old times with my JC classmates yet since june. Oh well, I guess there will be a time for it.

Right now, I am focusing majority of my energy during the weekends towards my Class3 driving. 14th September will be the date of my traffic police test whereby it will determine whether Ill be driving a car or still taking the mrt/bus. So far, it has been lucky and smooth so much so that my instructors think I should not have any problem passing the TP test. I will just try my best, pray hard and keep things simple. Hopefully when I meet my friends during outing the next time, I will be driving them around.

Time to head back to camp! See ya! TC!
