IPPT SeAsOn/ KnOwLeDgE iS PoWeR

...Lo aNd BeHoLd...


The past two days have been seemingly hectic. However, I've thoroughly been enjoying myself. Time flies when you are occupied. Was just looking through my old mails today. Felt abit nostalgic and sad. Really miss the days when I got to groom my specs and junior officers. When, I was given full responsibility of tasks beyond my spectrum of duties enabling me to expand my intellectual and social horizons further. I am sincerely looking forward to the day I get to go back 'home'. 1 year down... 3 to go....


Went to the gym with Waifu and Kevin yesterday. Enjoyed the long and slow run on the threadmill thoroughly. Had a most satisfying dinner with Kevin at TCC, Bugis. Good Ambience, Good Food, Good Company and tortured body. My warped picture of Nirvana. IPPT season is coming. Reminds me of my old days in the unit when I used to train my guys. It filled me with pride each time one of the guys passed or attained a higher award during the IPPT sessions. One of the most rewarding things I've done in my entire life.


I ended work at abt 7.10pm today. Couldn't feel the time just slowly seep through my fingers. Adversely, I wasn't able to go to the gym today. Met Waifu on my way out of office and his brother gave me a lift to Serangoon North.


I also want to apologise to the people in my office and my friends at work. Sometimes, I have this tendency to slip into work mode where nothing resides in the realm of my understanding other than me and my work. This might cause me to appear grouchy, serious and unapproachable. I do not deny that. However, I personally feel it is important to be thoroughly focussed and involved in everything that you do. The mind has infinite capabilities. Learn to exploit each and everyone of them, even if self torture is necessary... Sounds morbid? But mental prowess determines the makings of a leader who will stand his ground in times of calamities.


Results will be out in 5 days time. I do not know what to expect. But I have my faith in God and will embrace the results I get, for the fact that that I am able to write this blog so fluidly today is an amazing miracle of god in itself. There are people in the world who never get the chance to learn to read and write due to various problems even though they would very much like to. Then, there are those who choose to remain ignorant even though knowledge is standing upon their very doorstep.
