Recharge, Renew, revitalize.



There are always instances where you just need to motivate yourself to go on further. Motivation at its lowest, determination running out.

A very tiring week. Travelling to and fro between office and camp for equipment training. Organising and attending meetings whilst still having equipment training. Tuition and running sessions in the evening. Gym and swimming in the afternoon. But I am still looking foward to my run later at the reservoir. Trying hard to lose some mass cos my cousin was saying my head looks too small for my shoulders. Even Aud says my shoulders are getting broader.

And I attended a whole day of driving lesson at the SAF driving circuit yesterday. I just felt that my life is leaking away while attending army training. At least it's my first time driving the army land rover. Manual Transmission somemore. I even had to make a disclaimer to the instructor before i started.

me: eh... The last time i drove a manual car was about 2-3 years back. So if the engine stalled, be patient with me".

Instructor: No prob. I understand. You are a civilian and nowadays who drives manual cars.

me: Glad that u understand.

Bascially the training is to let us get the feeling of having your car skidding when you do an E brake. They wet the whole friction-less road with water and get you to drive on it. It's the first time I experienced the whole car sliding from one end to the other end for about 10m. COol.

Another 3 weeks out on course. Afterwhich, 2 weeks at office before I go to Aust for 3 weeks. After that, it would be another week at office before I go on my one week holiday! hahaa... Looking forward even though it's my 2nd time this year to Bangkok! By then, the application results for the Master course will most probably be out. Let's just hope Aud and I will get in.
