Was recently browsing thru all some old photos and I found this. haha. This was taken when i was still in J1 i think. Like 2007 first 3 months tat time.

And woah i realise i serious look damn pai kia with that uniform and hair. Like serious gangster. haha. But yea, those were the times man. I think if u ask me get bad that look will be quite hard ba. I dun even noe how i manage to cut that hairstyle in the first place. I think it's probably the result of not going for a haircut in a long long time, hence the unkempt hairstyle. haha.

Oh well, those were the days ba. I think tat period was one of the happiest in my life. Not that i'm not happy after that or wad so ever, but it was just one of the happiest ba. everyting was going so right then i rmb. Getting into a good JC, having a good class, having a good clique, having a good friend, having a good you-noe-what and having no worries of studies or money. Ah! How i miss those days. Pity I didn't treasure it man. To think i even gave up on you coz of some stupid obsession i had.

Looking back now, i realise that i've become one of those guys that ends up lamenting abt their regrets and at the same time laughing at their mistakes and naivety. I've grown much as compared to then already. To think that when i was 17, i tot i was ready to take on the world, turns out i wasn't. And even until now, i still am not. The world's reali quite the scary place and so is growing up.

Growing up really means being independent man. Like reali reali independent. I mean I still have friends that I can count on and buddies i can depend on but there are some stuff that we must deal with ourselves. Stuff like our emotions, our tots, our dreams, our problems and lastly our guilt... That's the hardest thing abt growing up. It's abt facing up to reality ourselves and learning how to resolve our own issues. It's abt being able to stand up after each time we fall and realising that at times the fall can be painful coz not everyone in the world will care abt you.

And yea, i hate to admit it but i think i'm a slow learner. Coz even after so many years, i'm still learning, learning how to grow up and i doubt i will ever learn it soon enuff. Sure army has taught me lots, but i'm sure society will teach me more. Army, to me, is just a microcosm of society, it's an enclosed environment, in the sense that it shuts out the world, which allows us to make mistakes and gives us a chance to start anew later after you ORD. I noe not everyone will agree with this view that I have but ya, that's how i feel abt army, it's a chance for you to make mistakes and let you start afresh once you shout ORD! and step out to the new world again.

Oh well, sry ppl for the slightly reflective/emo post. Was feeling abit in the mood for a little reflection so decided to blog abit but guess ended up being abit too much. haha.

That's all for now le folks! Shall update you guys more when i have time =D
