Looking all around us,
People everywhere
Children having fun
While we are holding guns.
Have you ever wondered,
Why must we serve?
Cause we love our land,
And we want it to be free,
to be free.
Ya!
Every day without fail we're sure to sing this song as we march. And this has always been my favourite song to march to ever since I first heard it in the movie Army Daze. It really makes you believe in serving the nation for the greater good. Death before dishonour.
I guess I don't have much to say about my current stint in the Singapore Armed Forces except that Ulysses Warriors are the best in the SAF! And that I have a good seaside view from my window which happens to be right next to my bed. Give me a hooha soldier!
Unfortunately, I won't be able to jam with ArPee tomorrow. But thankfully though, I'll be meeting them for dinner or something. I'm also thankful that ArPee is picking up momentum and have been given more and more gig slots which is really good I must say! Even if I don't get the chance to play, at least when the time comes that I'd be able to play, we wouldn't have to go back to square one.
Oh yeah, I hope to meet a few friends before I go back to camp again cause I might just not come out for the next 2-3 weeks.
I shall end this post with one of the stuff that I wrote while I was enjoying my time there.
I close my eyes.
Pray tomorrow's a better day.
I close my eyes,
And wish these feelings all away.
This heart beats hard
Even if the day is lost
And should it fail
I know that things have run its course.
