Camp Sapphire, one week gone

Its has been a week since Camp Sapphire ended. Kinda miss all the regimental things that basically will be the only way i'll live in a year's time for the next 2 years of my life. I intend to sign up, if my As prohibit me from entering the MEd. Fac at NUS. Will try my best to compete though, i already have a Biology Special paper under my belt, so i guess i'm at least still competitive. But somehow, i'll still trudging along, thinking that it is rather futile, considering that people who usually get admitted into the Med. Fac are siao kias who are like, doing 4 As and 4 S papers. Heh. Still, i'll try to get in, and if possible, sign up for OCS and go for the LSA Local Study Award.

A millitary Medical profession for me?

I'm thinking about signing on for the army as it is the only way my Uni fees can be settled without my parents footing a single cent. If i get the LSA awarded to Officer Cadets who are in OCS, it means that the 35K Med course fee will be wholly paid for by the Government of Singapore. My parents will not have to spend a single cent. Yay. Perfect scenario thta is. Upon completion of my 4 years in Uni, i will go back to OCS and learn Millitary Medicine. Thereafter, passing out as a Medical Officer. An immediate Lieutanant. That is cool.

But somewhere in my heart tells me that i want to be in a combat vocation, Guards or Infantry maybe. I want to suffer like the rest, not be confined in an air-conditioned room all day.

Hence, a contigency.

If i do not get myself into the Med. Fac, i will consider signing up as a Combat Officer, maybe in the Guards or Infantry, Intel will be fine too. The pay for officers are quite good, and it is literally a mtal rice bowl. Whihc will be good for my family.

Well, Camp sapphire did open my eyes to the boundless opportunitites that the a carrer in the Army can provide.
