ok i'm blogging from my office now because i'm on my first official duty tonight with no upperstudy around. ("YAY!" with overwhelming sarcasm) hope i don't screw up.
been listening to what a lot of people have to say about their ns life. taking views from different perspective always mattered since we all know that life doesn't only revolve around ourselves (unless you happen to be huge enough to give rise to a high gravitational force). it was then i realised how lucky i have been to be where i am now, or even where i was in. the complains i had about my ns life could not even hold a candle to what the others have to say. even in my office now, i happen to be posted to one of the "better" departments with reasonable superiors. even if what i'm doing now doesn't really suit me, i guess i should learn cherish it if i were to want to get through this phase of my life as painlessly (and i don't just mean physical pain) as possible.
and i guess OCT Law (i dunno why but i kind of enjoying addressing my guy friends this way, must be an ns thing) was right in saying how ns has made us more sensitive to our environment. when we were still civilians without a care in the world, things around us were easily taken for granted. our friends, our family, our fun, our time etc. and with them taken away from us (mostly), we can't help but start to learn to take notice and cherish what we have been shortchanged on. we start to appreciate their presence and all. so i guess ns has helped us in a way.
we play, we enjoy =)
