TIME FLIES... not like hawk or like a plane, but more like a rocket

its a funny thing how time works eh...

it was just not too long ago that we were all in j1 1st 3 months and during then i was still wearing the catholic high uniform. during then there was still the gang of clement, marcus, benjamin, weilin, and yihui. then that short and worry-free days were over, when sch really starts after PAE, then of course there is the whole 0622 class, where we had all our nonsensical days and also the mugging period before promos and the dreaded PW...

now fast forward a couple of months and i've retained, quit from kayaking in an abrupt manner, joined dragonboat for god knows what reason, went into a class with 21 girls and only one other guy. now that whole period of the nxt 2 years wld then be caught up in dragonboat training, classroom, library and the food court outside sch... not much of a life huh...maybe it explains why almost all my frens then were DB ppl and not the class. BUT strangely although it was tough work, but it was also gratifying. some points mayb i regret not interacting with the class a bit, ah but well those days are alr long over... *note that its already been 9 months since the A levels* now lets fast-forward a lil more.

so there we are, when i entered BMT on 080109, got my head cleanly shaven and into gryphon plt 3 section 2. made a couple more frens there and chased the common dream of entering OCS then. went through field camp, sitest. POP-ed 9 weeks later. told i was to b posted to SISPEC. couple of us had our dreams flushed down the toilet, others cldn't care less either way. then came SISPEC where by life was totally different from BMT, this 8 weeks again flew by rapidly, where new friendship was forged.however as time goes by, we start to forget or at least stop talking to ur other frens frm BMT or even frm sch... then come MP spec course, another new course with new ppl to meet and befriend. spent so much time in the auditorium listening to lectures after lectures on law, enforcement, war time ops, leadership roles, sect commanders responsibilities etc. so there goes another 10 weeks and before u know it, its AUGUST. calissa left for aussie to further her studies while the girls are all starting sch soon as in this week or the week after. as for the 0622 ppl, about the same just that the guys are left 5 more months to ORD...

yep, now who says time is crawling? oh and the big digit 2 is gonna b on my age real soon too...

all these coz i met clement at north point just now and we talked bout the good old days and how i have been uncontactable due to the change in hp no. and how i ran past him at ecp every sat without noticing him run past in the opp direction. strange how frens can turn to passer-bys with one agent called time.
