Came back from camp on the usual nights off...gotta return at 11 pm...but had the sudden inspiration to come up here and write what i did today. I read this book called "Rich Dad Poor Dad," in which co-author Robert speaks about how he had two dads, a rich one, and an educated one, and both were trying to conform him to their way of thinking. Robert eventually picked the rich dad, and today, he is a retired successful investor and entrepreneur, at the age of 47! Wow...imagine that...Reading through all the 266 pages of his book gave me new insights into life...I think I'm definitely considering a new career path. Apart from that, it was a long and draggy day...staying in the garage the whole day. Thankfully I had the book as companion. Well, there's nothing much more that happened today, except that when I returned to the office after closing the garage, I found out that my Battery Commander, Cpt. Dave, had given the whole battery a long weekend this Saturday. This did not seem like his doing, but when I asked around for the reason, Jeremy Goh (a specialist) said that Dave gave the LWE because he knew the battery's morale was low (how true!). Still, its not something he would ordinarily do, and I expect things to be much worse now that he's coming back from his CTC course on the 17th of this month...

My first post...I don't quite know what to say...I guess this will be one of my ways of expressing my thoughts and feelings...and i'll love it, i think, because You, who are reading it, will be unknown to me, faceless, formless, hidden behind an electronic and virtual mask...I won't know who you are, but you'll know everything about me, reading my innermost thoughts and desires. This veil of concealment, secrecy and mystery is one of the things that can keep me going...
Anyway, juz come back frm camp after one long week of duties. Only booked out on Wed for a few hours...Haiz. Keep telling myself tt i cannot feel so sorry for myself animore. Still...life is suppposedly good...i just deleted a klez virus/worm in my compz (thankx Swee Shoon! You're a great guy!) and can finally breathe a sigh of relief. Anyways, still thinking of how to spend my weekend (it was well deserved, i think). C ya l8R! -:=)
