get in, rock on!

sometime back the feeling is that we NSFs always have to clear the shit left behind by the regulars. yes its true of cos. but now, they pick up their own pieces without asking for our help because they realise their obligation to us. its a whole cycle issnt it, i guess. we come, suffer and we leave them exactly where they began with no questions asked.
camp's lonely and uninhabitable these days. the mood for ORD kicks in and everyone is away on leave or off, bear with it, im just stuck with tmr before i switch off until 24th october. my dy ps was just telling me on the car home yest, recalling melancholy the time when he saw us come in to today when we are almost bidding farewell, and him, farewell to yet another batch. its so fast, in a spin of time, we are here awaiting the day we have always waited most patiently and fervently for. yes, its a must we pack up and leave this place which our ideals do not lie but it doesnt rob us the feelings and relationships developed and the memories we take away.
the question which always hits the NSF mind would be whether to stay to fight for singapore if needed. i promise you the truth here. i was a straight no if you asked me 1 year back when i was still in sispec. now, there's no change in the set of principles i hold true to. but i will stay and fight. i will fight side by side the people i sweat and bled with, i will fight to keep the smile on the people around me. i will fight for myself, and i will fight for dignity. that's how i will put it. how about you?
maybe you will think abt it when your date nears.
for now, its 05/11/2007.

anyways, i was out the weekend making most of my time. finally got back to shooting with my camera. its been quite a long break from ndp and my techniques are getting rusty. nevertheless the walk on saturday was a good one with qiyuan and kianhong. well done, i achieved quite abit last week, i shall make this another fruitful one too. many a time there's a lack of motivation to do things and procrastination sets in, i guess to counter it is to believe you live only once and you wouldnt wanna live to regret your life. NO REGRETs, push on!
