[ 476. Youth Service ]
Just got back from youth service... supposedly to accompany the year 2s to assimilate them into the fellowship, but it turned out to be a gathering of the grasshoppers. You know... a bunch of recruits? yeah. Went for late lunch with enghow and hongyao, then sat around starhub foodcourt for a while before enghow and i buzzed off. i realized what it truly means to enjoy company with your pals. Things like sitting at the railing of the underpass, eating ice-cream and chatting... in a twinkle 8 hours has passed since bookout. Another 48 hours and we'll head back to that island.
One month has passed in the new year; what have i done instead of just questioning? Quoted this from my jie's blog:
Suddenly, i feel tt lotsa Singaporeans, the younger generation, r so sheltered n pampered tt they've become rather self-centered, superficial n think too highly of themselves. I hope i'm not one of them. They dun really consider the feelings of others n they'd manipulate tt of others to satisfy their own selfish desires possibly neglecting the hurtful consequences tt might result fr their actions.
Guess it's a consensus. 7 and a half weeks of a ninja life simply showed me the presence of politics everywhere. I mean, you get all kinds of people in the platoon; to be exact, 47 different species. And when you get selfish notions as quoted, that's when politics begin. Tension has arised and though treated as a parody, but you know that behind that grin or smile is a scowl. When will we learn to be acceptingor others above self...?
And now as Singaporean teen, you will say:
"Whatever." |
