it feels almost like block leave is already here. right now am at james' house feeling so different and so far (thankfully) away from bunk and tekong.

only that i have to return there this evening.

strangely when i woke up, i got a sudden recollection of the times in rj - waking up at seven to chiong to school to start studying by eight. spending endless hours in the classroom mugging through my notes, carrying files, shuffling between library and classroom, buying takeaway prawn mee and ban mian.

those were the days (gone by) haha. it seems strange how life has changed so much in a matter of 6 months. people are soon gonna fly to places over the world to study, while the guys will remain and serve our ns (except for the medcine buggers who are disrupting).

i really miss those days of the past. where a friend was only a corridor away, where a chat was just a phone call away and where a lunch together was taken as a natural thing.

but now, organising a simple gathering will be so tough. different people with all sorts of different schedules. i just hope that block leave could bring back some of that. not all, but just some.
