Well well. Blogging now in the luxury of my home. Haha. Should be sleeping in a dirty bunk with mosquitoes biting me now. I managed to defer my reservist training. :) Don't know whether I should be happy or sad. Happy in a way that I can resume my civilian life. Sad cause my branch is severly short of manpower. Turns out that 2 other Specialists in my branch had also defered their in camp training. With me gone, they only have 2 Int Specs now instead of the required 4. Guys who had been through army should know the camarade guys have when we serve the army. Though I had only been through 1 in camp with them which was last year, it still feel good to see them again. Also met up with a very good friend of mine, Boon Chew, during NS. He is now the CSM of a coy in my Bn. (Branch= Int Branch or S2 Branch, Coy= Company, Bn= Battalion) Feel kinda bad as we used to chiong together back in the army. Now I got to leave him behind. I know some of my friends will find it hard to believe but I used to be quite garang when I was a trainee. I had this mentality that since you are going to spend 2 and a half years in the army, might as well give it your best shot and have fun. Fun is definitely what I had. Though I was grumbling and complaining back then. Who in the right frame of mind will spend the whole night wide awake cleaning rifle and go chiong straight away in the morning? Definitely not me now. Uncle liao lah. :P In the past, no kick for me man. Armour Rocks!!
Anyway, part of the reason why I wanted this deferment was the fact that I have zero sale till now. I am nearing my probation period soon and never in my wildest nightmare had I had this nightmare. No sale at all!! How could it be? Had a small disagreement with my Sales Director on Fri. He was kinda implying that I am not making an effort to close my prospects which is a shot totally under the belt. It takes two hands to clap in everything. I am trying my best but if they want to delay their decision or worse, don't get back to me at all, what am I supposed to do? Go and haunt them? He should know that it is hard considering that he went for a few appointments with me. I hate it when people who are supposed to be with me end up as the one who knife me at the back. I will be giving it my best shot for these last two weeks of my probation which conincidentally clashes with my in camp. Thus, I really got no choice but to leave my comrades back in Sungei Gedong. All the best GUYS!! I know it is hard(Sungei Gedong, mere mention of the name will turn men into zombies. Damn Sianzz) but I am sure with the experience that you guys had, it will be a breeze in the park. ;)
Got to go sleep now. Was thinking of talking about my experiences last Thurs(where I met a lady who is unbelivebably as good a drinker as me), my pulled groin muscle(damn PAIN!) on sat during soccer and the outing I had with the gang on Sat night(Damn Expensive and no chio bu :( ). Will talk about it when I have the time to blog again ba. Don't know why but kinda busy with work and other stuff nowadays. Nitezz.
You can take a picture of something you see. In the future where will I be?
