I've decided on this first Monday of October 2011, I shall make it a point to write a post every single day from now till i ORD. Might not be any fanciful writings, but it shall note down things I've learned or experience in the day. My reason for making this resolution now is to show that if I want to, I can be determined to carry out something as tedious as this for a very long time. It will also remind me of the events that have passed which I'll tend to forget due to my poor memory.
Spent most of the time in the compactor room today, doing no work at all. Talk lots of rubbish in the morning while Roy brought the lazy bums (DXOs, 2WO) to little india to buy their artificial flowers. Really wonder why SAF is paying all these slackers and wasting our taxpayer's money...Oh wells, I'm one of them, but my pay's much much lower... After a rather long lecture on fengshui from Roy, it really got me thinking if fengshui was the key to having luck in life? Though the rest says it's all superstition, you can't deny the luck Roy has in his life la! Opening a restaurant and earning big bucks before he was 22, getting married and having enough money to buy BTO flat when he's on 23!!! Not easy man! Is this really luck? But I must admit, people like Yinhao and Roy are outspoken and confident individuals. They really do dare to voice out their thoughts and demands in face of the higher ranked officers. Maybe that's the reason to success? Perhaps, luck + confidence is the perfect recipe for a successful life? This is indeed worth researching. As of now, fengshui seems much easier to deal with, as opposed to building up confidence. I hope at the end of these 198 Days left in Army, I'll be a changed man. One who has the courage to fail, responsible enough for my actions and to live with no regrets. Seems like a real challenge, but I'm up for it. You won't know till you try! Or at least that's what I'll tell myself... And from this day, I shall resume my path to obtaining a driving license! Put on hold for 6 months already, this project is way overdue. I shall try to pass my FTT 1st, before starting on practical. The main reason for my reluctance was mainly because I was afraid to drive. I really don't want to knock any one down or cause an accident. I don't have the confidence to drive well. But!!! "Every accomplishment starts with the decision to try!" I must learn to drive, like how I managed to learn to cycle at quite an old age. And now, a car! Feeling nervous, but excited at the same time, I will step up and fulfill what I've written in the above paragraph.
Taking small steps in a day, I will be able to run in the future! :)
To end off, I shall post this song. Written by a Singapore singer who went hongkong to develop. Real motivation man! Like the show too!
