Another post on something that talks about something

Tomorrow is 31st Jan of 2008. No big deal but that means 11 more months for the year to change to 2009. But on the other hand, i dont really like the idea of going nearer to my birthday because i dont want to go into the twenties. I love staying 18. 18 and life, you know?

nowadays, army just dont feel like army. I go to camp at 7am and then i go back home at 6pm. Everyday I just stay in office and settle alot of admin stuffs. I have radio, comfortable armchairs, and aircon by my side. I dont even feel like I am even defending my country. Alot of on job training during office hours which i think will benefit me after i leave the army. I dont even understand why can't I go to the civilian world and do the same stuff and benefit the economy of my country. I hate regimentation. Even though, my job is pretty alright, compared to my peers who have to stay-in, I still hate the regimentation in the army. I hate to greet people i dont even respect. i hate wearing the uniform and I hate to say yes sir yes sir all the time.

I think i lack motivation ah. No motivation, everyday life like damn meaningless. Everyday wake up, work, eat, work, eat, internet, tv, sleep. Weekends always the best because u got all ur friends around ah. I was thinking of retaking my As this year, so maybe i got some goal to achieve. I want to learn how to drive ah but i cannot afford ah.

Tml the planet will inch along the orbit around the sun. The nearest galaxy will inch towards our own galaxy. Mars will still be orbiting around the sun without any substantial signs of life form or water in it. Living things on Earth are being competitive against each other to survive, only to die when their biological time is up. Are all these routines of the universe making life and nature seems so meaningless?

don't you love doing office work??? it's so nice, and it's really good training for us to get into the working world later on...

for us, national service has another meaning... it refers to the nation serving us by providing us with free training in openoffice, and microsoft office (which would get us better pay when we interview for jobs), plus working in an office environment (which i'm sure people who haven't been there and done that before would find it quite tough to get used to)... plus all the courses that they send us to go to, it's free and really beneficial... and how else can we complain when we get paid for it.. wahahaha...

wahahha. yeah i had culture shock when i had office job. Thats because i spent almost a year in the army charging up the hill in the nasty jungles. Maybe i need time to adjust to it though.

the good thing about all these work i do is the allowance i get. Like you said, it also provide me invaluable oppourtunity to improve on my computer skills and my inter personal relationships with people. Guess charging up the hill doesnt teach ppl on those life skills.
