Once in awhile, when i have too many little thoughts floating around in my head, each too insignificant to blog about but too many to ignore, i come up with a post like this..
1. Its times like these that i feel life isnt going the way its supposed to be, but all the other alternatives seem even worse than the present situation, thus it'll be better to carry on living in lousy reality, even if i feel its not right.
2. I scored really low for my tactics test 1 this week. (but passed, thankfully) Its the first time ive screwed up in a test because of having too early a start for studying. I studied for 2 hours the day before, promptly forgot everything when the test came, and still scored lower than those lazy bastards who studied like half an hour before the test. Who ever said life was fair?
3. I did really well for OCCT grading today. (translation for army acronym: Officer Close Combat Training, a sort of martial art they teach in the SAF, using a combination of locks, kicks, punches, jabs, chops and a whole lot of pain.) Miraculously, I did so well that I managed to achieve A.I status (translation for army acronym: Auxillary Instructor, meaning that when the instructors conduct a CCT lesson in the future, i get to help them out by playing instructor and screwing people who arent doing the techniques properly)
4. Commissioning Parade is coming up on the 2nd of April, and the Commissioning Ball on the 9th of April. Cant wait for both. :)
5. Major life-changing decision: I am seriously considering applying for a place at the London School of Economics instead of studying in the US as originally planned. According to PSC scholar Wing mates, its much easier to enter a premier UK university like LSE as compared to a US Ivy League, say Wharton. Also, studying there is pretty much straightforward and First Class Honours are almost a sure thing for Singaporean chao muggers like me. Hmmmmm.. decisions decisions. Thoughts, anyone?
6. I so need to book a date for my basic theory driving test, something which i've been putting off since November. Help.
7. I would really really really really really want a Nokia 6170.
8. I would also really really really really want to find a new mp3 file sharing programme besides Kazaa.
