Last One
Thats it. The last commissioning parade I'll experience as an OCS instructor. The weather really was perfect for a parade. It's hard to imagine that one year ago, it was my band of brothers and I marching on proudly on that parade square. The parade never fails to invoke sentimental feelings in me, although I've seen it like 4 times in the past year. It really is the culmination of 10 months of sweat, blood (for some people a lot of blood) and tears.Big congrats to Nelson, who bagged the Sword of Honour for midshipmen. No easy feat I'll tell you that. Respeckt Nelson!! Respeckt! I SALUTE YOO!
Drove down to Chomp Chomp for supper with Andrew and Yoga for supper. Cos' quite honestly, the dinner after the commissioning parade was pretty bad. Apparently the caterers thought that presenting the fried rice in a shape of a lotus flower would distract from the fact that it tasted like crap. Ah well. 9 chicken wings, carrot cake, and 3 bowls of almond beancurd later, all is forgiven.
I wonder how she is. Maybe she'll be there this Wed? Should have spoken more the other time. D'oh! Well. Couldn't be helped I guess. Wasn't in a very stable state then. Ha. No thanks to Mr. Jack Daniels.
