OCS

Tonight is a peaceful night..The yellow lights dimly litted the empty streets. The moon showing itself brightly as before, and the cold wind blows.. It feels the same as the night before I enlisted to the army. The apprehensive feeling of don't know what is going to happen from tomorrow onwards.

Yes, I'm going into OCS training from tomorrow onwards. It has been where I have been aiming to go for the whole of my BMT training. Now that I got in, I felt afraid that I'm not up to it. I wonder whether I can endure through 9months of tough training. I wish I can, and I pray so. I know all are in God's hands, now tomorrow and forever. What's there to fear?

I'll miss my brother's (Tommy) birthday, as well as YueTong's and Penguin's (Anyi). Save money!!! Wahaha, just joking..really hope I can be free to celebrate the birthdays of those I treasure. Well...Happy Be-earlied Birthday!!=)

I haven't fold my smart 4, and it's getting late. I needa do what I have to do and enjoy every step God is bringing me through. I better go sleep and prepare myself for tomorrow.

The beginning of 9months starts now. Another journey of experiencing God's amazing grace in toughest times. It's gonna be great.=)

Lord, You're the wind beneath my wings.

P O P

"Raven!! Raven!! All the way! We like it here!! We like it here!! We've found ourselves a home! A home! A Home Sweet Home!!"

About 2 and a half months ago, I still find this cheer sacarstic and a total invert from how I feel about home sweet home. Until this day that I've passed out from BMT, everything is different. The things and times that we had been through as a platoon has no doubt bond us together.

Live range, Field camp, Sit test, live grenade (no blinds!), Route marches...All the hardships simply forged wonderful friendship among us all. Push ups, crunches, jumping jets, burpies, shutter kicks, flutter kicks, london bridge, buddha claps, chin-ups...PT never seem so shiong before. But being in Raven 4 never seem so shiok before either.

The past 3months has been a turn in life, and it's quite a sharp drift one. The experiences and feelings I've been through can hardly be described by words. I can only try my very best to remember every moments that I've been through with my buddies.



Thanks Raven platoon 4! I'm truly grateful of the times you guys helped me out when I needed it. And thank you all for voting me to be your platoon best. Truthfully, I can't do it all by myself, and I'm proud to be the platoon best that you guys made me to be.



Thank God for bringing me through every single thing. Now, I'm all prepared to go on to my next phase of my army life.. OCS.
