a father should never have to mourn his son's passing. it is simply not the right order of things.

issues
honestly? i do feel quite bad about the whole situation about my leave. even if people say that NS is just serving your time, and i should try to do as little as possible, i don't think that justifies me applying for leave every weekend for the whole of december.
while i do agree that i don't really want to do much for the SAF, i do realize that the less duties i do, the more somebody else has to do. and for that, i feel a tinge, well maybe a huge pang of guilt.
so, if i really do feel that way, then how did this come along? well it just happens that i applied for on separate occasions and when i had finished booking the 13days of leave that i had left over for the year, every weekend on leave. just one of the things that sneak up on you while you're not thinking.
and that is why despite them giving me a duty on a day that i'm supposedly on leave, and on the eve of a very special day, which means i will only book out the morning of that day itself, i am not going to make any noise about having duty despite my leave.
and i hope it ends there, and they'll not give me any more trouble about this whole thing.
on another note, CRCC is over! 6 weeks of a not very "shiong" course is over, and i have the RHIBs operator cert lying in my cabin. whether i can confidently be an independent coxswain is another issue. but i'm quite glad that i went for the course, with all the knowledge gained not only in maneuvering one of the fastest crafts in the navy, but also the methodology and working styles of different people and organizations.
now, i have to pick up the habit of reading my emails properly again, and lose a few extra pounds of flab that i've picked up.
and then, if ntu could be so nice as to quell my insecurity by sending me a formal letter of confirmation for my course, i would be happy.
and if anybody could be so nice as to get me a prettyful guitar or any of the things i'm so desiring for for my birthday, i would be happy.
yeah, i would be happy. ;)
this is such a dragggyyy post.
