'the past is history, the future is a mystery and today is a gift, that is why it is called the present'. but is what is happening today always a gift? why do so many people look forward to the future then if they are happy with what they have. i have learned in recent weeks that when you think you are in the worse shithole you can possibly in, someone will always be in a shitcrater facing worse than what you are facing. nevertheless, its not consoling to have things not go your way in almost every aspect. i have been spending quite abit of time with my family during this exceptionally long weekend and i guess knwing that your family is always behind you in every decision you make however worried it might make them is really heartwarming. been talking to my parents about the bad streak i am going through and how we discuss the possible options i have made me realise that they can give me the advice i need too. to be honest i have never really dicussed much with my family unless it requries their signature. i prefer to make choices on my own and it has been the case ever since i was a kid. i guess its never too late to make the family's opinion a bigger part in my decision making.

social night is coming up on wednesday and its pretty boring from what i hear from the other wings but oh well. if i get to signals and thats a huge if, i will be departing for brunei as early as the coming sunday.it seems fun minus the JCC the infantry men go through so there is reason to look forward to it. and by the time i get back, it will be block leave. so many things to look forward to especially the very well deserved break in my opinion from the past 3 1/2 months of training. having said this, so is the present really that awesome? i guess its a tough call for anyone unless you life is perfect now and it becomes a no brainer. life sucks but i guess not sucky enough to keep me wallowing in self-pity for too long. after all i have more or less survived service term. 2010 better come quick because i am all ready to kickstart everything in 2010
