3 days in.

Here in the army, when you talk about you studying medicine, people immediately think of deferment. And so it scares me to think that not all will be disrupted to study medicine according to the formal looking letter that was sent to us by MINDEF. It scares me quite a freaking lot.

To say the least, armour here is nothing like signals institute - it's rather regimental, we're doing stuff we never quite learnt in SI itself and all my closest friends that I made in SI have all been posted to 8 signals battalion.

Talk about sadness.

It's always this "post-posting" sadness that I like to think of as an unfortunate syndrome...temporary and fleeting, but still enough to plunge me into some of the most pensive moments at times. I amaze myself at the capability to not speak for an entire morning if it befits my mood for the morning!

I've been doing my Quiet Time lately and yesterday's lesson was on contentment - about finding the least bit of happiness in moments of adversity, much like now.

If anything, I'll just try to lift my own spirits till the moment I disrupt. ARGH.
