This post should probably came in earlier than like now. There's a straighforward reason why I post this so late... simply because I'm too lazy and most of the time, I was playing maple story on my computer. Oh well, from now, i'm probably having more updates here.

The time has come after 2yrs and 2mths of National Service. I would probably said that honestly, as much as I feel that every male Singapore citizens should be contribute to the defence of the nation, the time spent could be channelled to somewhere else more useful.

NS had taught me serveral useful things and made me a stronger person. However, should you ask me about my NS experience, it was a sliding curve. I could rattle on and on about my NS experience but I guess it would probably bored the people reading and me writing.

In summary, I'd made friends whom helped me a lot, whom were the pillars of support for each other in times of hardship and share the joy and fun.

There were many things that I had done in my training days that I had never thought possible but I still managed to do it... It's pretty amazing and I thought to myself, I'm such a miracle.

However, I didn't really enjoyed NS during my days in the unit. I was apptd as a Deputy Manpower Offr. My task was mainly events management and running mandune administrative task. It was a totally different concept from mounting the Armoured Vehicle and learning to fight.

In my tour of duties, I had seen many selfish and disgusting people. At the same time, many NSF like myself trying to stay floating in the deep sinking sea.

In general, I would say, the whole NS experience was probably 6.75 / 10. I still believed in the whole idea of defending the nation, but the NSF are still not been recognised enough in the SAF. After all, the army is a conscripted army - we form the bulk of fighting force, yet most of the credits goes to the regular force in army.

Now, the time has come where I should carry on with my life as a civillian.
