The first day of work

It began in CMPB, where i initially thought i was posted. Turns out it was merely the place where they briefed us on where we would be going and how. Honestly i didn't see the point since we did not do anything "special" and nothing changed by us going to CMPB.

Thus i happily thought "yes sembawang airbase~" Until they told me i'd be in MINDEF, which location was a mystery to me, till they said "bukit gombak". So i'm stuck with a place that takes 1hour+ to get to.

At least i'm in publications, which is supposedly not as hiong as other departments. Had to write an essay too, to "fight" with joel for writer post, though neither of us seem to be too sure of whether we want it, or what its actually about in the first place.

As i can't really say more, i'll talk about travelling time. It seems that every different institution i rise to requires twice as much travel time as before. To chongfu, 10+mins. To SJI, 20+mins. To VJC, 45mins. To MINDEF, 1hour 20mins+ Luckily theres nowhere in Singapore that i'd take 3hours to get to, or i'm screwed for uni.

But thinking back to old times really brings tears to my eyes. While searching for GP essays and stuff to bring tomorrow (zz) i began thinking of the times i'd spent in VJ, and in SJI before that. The things i'd done and would never get to do again. The people i'd met and may never meet again. The things i'd done with people i'd met that i'd never experience again. In an instant of hindsight i'd felt so much nostalgia for the past that i'd tear.

But time can't turn back.

But i can't help it.

But thats the way the world.

But i miss..

i miss the times before.
