So the 20 days of reservist came and went, with nothing much that i can talk about (cos well there was nothing much that went on) and i have to say that i thought it went quite well actually. At the least, Seletar Camp is quite a nice place. I'd take some pix to prove it but well of course that would not be allowed, so you've to take my word for it. For starters, managed to spot quite an impressive variety of local bird species there including more Long-tailed Parakeets than i've ever seen anywhere else, even in Changi Village. I sure don't remember them from five years ago, though perhaps it was just that i was too blur then to notice.
(Actually, it's been eons (if at all) since i've remarked on anything to even remotely do with the SAF in a positive light so well maybe the proverbial toto/4D buyers should make a beeline for their nearest S'pore pools outlet.)
Unfortunately all this came to an end on Tuesday, and as expected, the first days back at school haven't exactly been in the same mould as the days back in Seletar. In fact, there has turned out to be even more things to do than i thought there were, and whatever excess sleep and rest i did manage to get in the past close to three weeks has been cancelled out within the past two days. And in the same way, whatever sense of refreshment and recharge there may have been is long gone.
But hey, it's not all bad. And there's the year-end holiday to look forward to. Once i finally decide where it'll be at, that is...
