listening to ou de yang now... really melodious and nice voice, makes some wonder how does this guy look like... sometimes feel if its jus a marketting gimmick, its been a long long time since his debut album made its way up the top charts, but yet nothing new has appearea dn yet amazingly his album is still within teh top 10 sales in cd rama and smc... nuts... but cannot deny it, his music is really soothing and melodious.
anyway quite happy with the training life now, been 3 weeks since i left 6SIR and return to safti, home of the officer corps as they would call it, to carry on iwth my company tactics cours, the directing staff are really nice, and all are very very into the Organisational Learning framework, its really amzing, for those that kept thinking SAF as the rigid, the stubborn and the stupidly irritatingly irrlevant and cold world or organisation, be prepared for a hock, the learning environment here is so unscholarly, nobody's doing jus 1-way talking or stuff, in fact, everybody's learning for everybody else EVERYDAY... the OL framework is so evident in here,,, it sometimes amkes me feel that SAF is really moving forward fast, and with such top management, if eveyrboyd else actualy embrace and preach for OL, the organisation will really be very veyr strong, and i'm not saying this cos i'm some flag waving, ptriotic, green-to-the-bone GI... but the past fw weeks really gave me a new insight into how SAF SHOULD be run.
There comes the tough part, as the commander of AOAS (army officer advanced school) said, OL is a workable frameworka nd its realistic IF everybody practice it, right down to the very last men of the infantry and driver of the landrovers. it'll happen, i'm very sure, but sadly, not everybody practices such teachings openly and explicitly in our daily life. haha jus a side thought...
well, so far as the ctc experience is to be rated, i'll say this experience is really really a refreshing and very enjoyable one, one that really gave me new energy and new drive to work, something i've been slowly deprived and sapped off throughout he past 8 months... sigh, i really do not know man, but am i such a whiner? but its jus so hard to feel motivated or work for the boss...
like i said before, i'm working only for my fellow PCs, who we all sahred all the tough times together, and more importanly, for my men, they deserve a good NS experience and i want them to know that NS is not all bad, that NS is indeed the EXPERIENCE OF their LIVES... that at the end of the day, the motivation to pick up arms and to kill or die when called upon our turn, that the motivation is the guy that is right beside them, to get throught he mission with a sole purpose, to preserve our integrity as a country and more importantly, for me as their pc, to see to it that at the end of the day they will all return to their families and all in one piece... yes, that's what drives me on everymorning for the past 8 months when i was in 6SIR. i wish not that they will remember me for the rest of their lives, but i wish that i've done my best for my men and all. haha some ppl said that i get to emotional, but nope, this is the feeling of every other pcs in my company, and that is the feeling that actually makes this army HUMAN... the HUMAN touch to make this a truely the people's army.
when will the right one come along...? i can only walk alone and wonder.
seeya.
150 days to ord!!!
