a little more than 5 months left before this 2 year stint is over. really ironic for me to be in charge of handling admin matters for the NDU peeps after dropping out from there. looking at those from the batches after mine who thread on the path similar to what i took, i couldn't help but reflect on how life would have been if it had happened otherwise almost a year back. july 11th to be exact, was the day the MO declared me unfit for hellweek, and ended everything. the twist of fate then landed me in HQ RSN, and i turned out to be the one keying my own course report into the system, and for the subsequent batches.
seeing my own batch boys in the total defence segment and marching for the RSN gaurd of honor contingent in the NDP rehersals somehow makes me proud of them. but what overwhelms that pride is still that thought of regret, which i have been unable to shake off all these while.
whatever.
cage again tomorrow, hope it'll be as good as the last one.

i chose code geass - lelouch of rebellion as the series to kickstart the "rebirth" of my anime watching habit again and my, it was surely a good choice.
seriously, the last few episodes especially, really invoked a lot of emotions in me. though it wasn't a very pleasant twist in the story, but it was definitely a good one.

where:
x,y,z,k,K,a,b and c are same as above O is the number of weeks to ORD R is the number of minutes to ORD D is the number of seconds to ORD

haven't been able to find the mood to pen down my toughts/reflections lately, which explains the lack of posts in the recent week. not that my life has been dull though. on the contrary, it had been fufilling.
finally back on track for tuition again after stopping briefly for the school holidays, and finally i'm going back to a steady income already. seriously, what's keeping me alive now is my tuition pay. simply because i've been spending more that my NS allowance, partly because i don't get cookhouse food like many other NSFs does. whatever, i'm thankful for being able to teach (and earn money of course =p)
friday night was class dinner with 06S14 peeps. simple dinner, but managed to catch up with each other nonetheless. most of the guys are gonna ORD soon, less than 4 months left in fact, for them. i still have 6. but it's ok, it'll come soon =)
last night was wimbledon 09 finals. federer won. on the surface, it seems like a expected result. it is, except for the fact that federer was made to work really hard for it. 5-7, 7-6, 7-6, 3-6, 16-14. i thought last year's nadal vs. federer finals was exciting though, this one turned out to be even better. federer was definitely having a hard time containing roddick's attack. and roddick was serving superbly well for that match. but alas, the king did what he did best - he kept his cool and went at roddick even harder, conjouring 50 aces and taking that all important set to take the record 15th grand slam, and at the same time, reclaimed his number 1 spot.
now nadal is number 2 again. i can cheer for him more since i prefer cheering for underdogs xD
