The stuff dreams are made of.





If you've watched this, its pretty amazing how a 6 year old girl can sing so well. I don't know if she eventually won the competition, but, I guess sometimes watching this kind of inspirational moments just proves that the sky's the limit. And there's something special in each of us.


Received some news yesterday, about myself holding an appointment during our overseas training. Its going to be challenging, and funnily, in my entire NS life I haven't held an appointment before. But, I'm looking forward, and hope to do a good job. I want to be among the special few on the day of our POP, and do something my dad can be proud of.


Its still something that daunts me, and I do wonder how am I going to cope with 33 days away from home. If it was a holiday, I probably wouldn't feel it too much. But as of now, I don't even know how and when will I be able to call home. It'll be a mini trial for me, but I'll come through it with God's grace. Until then, I hope that I can spend as much time with my family and baby till I fly off on the coming Thursday morning. I'll be counting down every single day then.


Because, home is where my heart is.


Edit: It was nice to know that the Cadet Inspectors are invited for the upcoming Teachers Day Dinner. Its good that the school recognise people who put in their time and effort for the unit and for the school. Coincidentally, that'll be my first night overseas. Wonder if it'll be like when I was in BMT last December, tossing and turning in bed finding it impossible to sleep in the alien surroundings. I need the strength to go through this.

Reminiscence the past, cherish the present, look forward to the future with hope.

When discipline is present, it is evident. It is the precise control of every aspect of one's self. It is the bedrock of success.
