Metamorphosis..

Due to popular demand by Shafy, here's the 3rd post!! Sounds so pathetic..Anyways, after going through around 3 months of NS, I feel that I have matured alot..I have learnt to treasure the things I take for granted back home, to self-reflect more and think things through deeper before diving into the various tasks. However, most importantly, to depend more on God for strength and guidance. I personally feel that NS is the best time to get intimate with God, to hit that spiritual high and to be able to maintain it. My entire BMT was walked with Him guiding each step I took. I have never felt so powerful in Him before. This rocks..

The tents we slept in
The BMT phase past by so quickly, and before I knew it, it was POP (passing out parade). It was really the tough times in training that we remembered most, and also talked about most. My heart ached when I had to leave Tekong for greener pastures (almost literally).
OCS was the next hurdle to cross. Comparing the living conditions, food and infrastructure, SAFTI-MI trashes BMTC hands down. However, all this comes with a price..The training in OCS is really a killer concept! You can say that BMT was a stroll in the park..I learnt that it is very tough to even be commissioned as an officer, you could go out of course very easily!! It has been 3 weeks already, and I thank God that He has pulled me through so far..There are 35 more weeks to go, and a section field camp coming up next week in Tekong (woohoo, hometown!!) It is going to be 4 days of outfield..I WILL SURVIVE!!
