after many days of punches, kicks, aching backs and swollen limbs, i've finally cleared my ACCT (thats advanced close combat training for the army-illiterates), which is a adapted form of 'martial training' from all sorts of 'martial arts'- jijitsu, taekwondo etc etc. yeap, ACCT's more fun than ICCT for sure, cos its so much more realistic n useful and definitely not as 'wayang' as ICCT. haha... jus came back from a small gathering at my specialist Andy Teo's house, jus went over to hv dinner, meet up and talked and played some cards ($$$) till late night, quite surprised when they gave me a ord gift, a blue kappa bag. *smile* its been a year man, a full year since i've taken charge of this platoon and my specialists. its universally agreed, the best time of an officer is when he's taking charge of his 25 men and 10 commanders under him. such a satisfaction is virtually ir-replicable anywhere else... response to our plea for A+ blood for Kang fei is going on quite well, really kinda touched by the fact that so many ppl are moving on our own to solicite donors for him. these are all the ppl that we call frens and that respond to our calls for helps. these are a bunch of great friends to have. kang fei, though i would rather not realise this through such circumstances, but indeed, u r blessed with great friends and family. having said that, he'll be on for chemotheraphy, in a few phases over the next few months, and blood platelets that are much needed from the blood for him can't last more than 5 days, so we'll need to keep this up for a good period of time, with luck and time. lets pray for his speedy recovery. today's quitea smiley day for me, got to see so much of human's 'nice' and warm side, the volunteerism, the enthusiasm for life, the relationship building between every human being. I wish everyday is like this for everyone: that we all are able to end off our day with a big big smile n not jus some super tired out and expressionless face. Even if we have jus completed a crazy ACCT test session today. *smile*
