and you begin to pay more attention to the little details on what happens during the ceremonies. begin to think about what would happen during YOUR own wedding. the preparations and all that stuff. the church reception, the service, the house visits, the formal dinner. and not to forget all that crying, of course.
everyone was looking all formal and regal and it all somehow felt like we were members of noble gentry. that's my paternal side for you. had the opportunity to catch up with many hi-bye relatives and many aunties who used to spank my ass(because i was so god-damn mischievous) back when i was younger no longer recognized, let alone attempted to spank me. all of them thought i was out working already and i swear the next question to come out of their mouths would be when I'm getting married.
if I didn't cut them off first by saying that I'm actually in the army.

great week in camp as well. one full of laughter and joy.
would always remember this week for how;
-Everyone was freaking out over the dead/petrified/dried up lizard Hassan found during area cleaning.
-Hassan used the lizard as a pick for strumming his guitar
-BrianYeo bit the lizard between his teeth
-Julian attempted to swallow aforementioned dead reptile
-Hansen hyperventilated over lizard and almost screamed the roof down
-Roy was being his same old annoying self
-Fat Brian pitched the lizard to Hassan who swatted it like a baseball using the guitar.
-Marcus was caught in action in the toilet with a toilet roll in one hand and his pants to his knees
-Sufi lost his HELMET and insisted that someone in the platoon hid it somewhere
-Brandon, BrianYeo, FatBrian, Weijie & I pushed Roy to the limits with THE MOTHERSHIP drawing
(HAHAHA)
little stupid stuff like that would go down with us as memories in time to come.

now the HELL MONTH moves fully into place and it does get the hardest at this point.
Gotta be strong, stay determined and remain ever-focused.
July would come and it would all be over soon.
