Oh well, the time of the year is here again, a time for us to celebrate the season of giving, sharing and love. Weirdly enough, though i do fathom that i should be in the christmassy mood now, the fact is, i don't!

I don't hear any jingle bells calling out to me subconciously, i do not wish for santa to be here, neither do i see any mistletoes hanging from my room. Its weird, since usually at around this time, i'll be busily meeting up with friends to enjoy this yuletide season, but noo...here i am, stuck alone at home, banging away at this keyboard typing this entry.

Weridly enough, i've been so caught up with work (Yes, being in the Army does constitute to working) that I'VE COMPLETELY LOST TRACK OF TIME! Sure, i can still tell the hours apart from the minutes, but the months just come and go like that *snaps finger* just like that, one month slips away, then two..then three, before i know it, a year has slipped by me without my concious awareness!

OH DEAR!

By this time last year, i'll be out partying with friends, enjoying the crowd, lights, action and the whole Yuletide atmosphere like what i did last year. But i guess, having mentioned that i've lost track of time, i have somehow been immuned towards the Christmas/New Year mode since everyday has really become much more of a routine to me. Was telling my fellow commander Sean that i guess by the time i realise its Christmas, it will already be Chinese NEw Year.

I do not deny that possibility....really. Cause i fathom that my mind and body is at least a few weeks, if not a month backdated. That being said, simply means that by the time New YEar finally arrives and i'm a month into Jan, then will i finally realise that Christmas and the New Year have come and gone.

...Snigger...

I promise myself last year after B3 ruined my Christmas that the Christmas i'm gonna spend this year will be an even better one, one that will not see me cross it alone, one that will not see me left wanting for presents and the usual Christmas attention people get. But i guess it seems its just not the time yet. Here i am, haha, contenting myself with Jap and Korean movies, oogling at cute Korean actresses and the likes, behaving all whiny and squimish. Hahaha. Well, look on the bright side, at least this year, i did not waste money on anybody. Hahah and i meant that in jest.......reallly....

Saw someone that caught my sttention today at Tampines Mac. She had that soft, gentile facial features, those alluring eyes, her rosy cheeks and silky hair, made me look, going for seconds one after another. Alas, being the eternally shy me, i did not dare or even attempted to try and get her number. I don't know, its weird, cause in life, you meet all sorts of people, but it is always a case of the wrong place at the wrong time when you wish that for a moment, for just a moment, that you can pluck up enough courage to seek what your heart desires. Maybe i'm just not ready for another one, maybe i'm just not sure of my own abilities and character Maybe, just maybe. Also bought a perfume for $15 from a roving sales amrketeer...i feel cheated. Damned. But it smells nice lah truthfully speaking, according the box, it is also unisex. But it smells more feminine then masculine to me, or wait, is it supposed to smell femisculine? or Mascuminine in that case? Whichever the case is, it still smells femine to me.

Oh well, bummer then.

Life as an instructor has been good i guess so far, on tuesday i begin a fresh new start for myself. I'll be reporting to Pasir Laba Camp at the Brand new School of Infantry Specialist to begin my Platoon Sergeant course. After the course i'll be a qualified personnel who can assume the roles and responsibilities of a Platoon Sergeant in charged of 28 men. =) Quite exciting, but having to readjust back to trainee life is quite the little turn off for me. But as always, i'll do my best in whatever i undertake. I must make the name of 1 Guards Shine! Guards! Ready To Strike!

Guess thats all i have to say for now, till then, Merry Christmas everyone...
