This is amazing, i do not understand why or how, but days that went past without using my brains made me more tired than days when i invest the whole of my concentration, especially during working times.. man, i just cant wait to return to work, its been so long and i cant help but to feel useless when i am not working..
Maybe this is the consequences after you spend most of your time from high school onwards, until university times till working times, concentrating studying or working, and you just got used to it, i can sleep less by just concentrating, and i love the days when i use my brains, fully utilise them, lets see, the last time i really use my brains was 24 june, i remember so well..
Then i went to national service, er.. in a way, their physical activities are quite fun, but we girls are often tired, having to climb hills everyday because there is where our dorm is located, i think my legs have got stronger because of that.. but other than the food which is a real problem for vegetarians since they are unable to prepare food for me, a pure vegetarian, without the consumption of onions, garlic, leek, eggs and meat, it is difficult and thats why i fell sick.. their oil is not fresh obviously, and they tend to include anchovies, errr.. who said that is vegetarian at all?
and the classes in the classroom, gosh.. i think my mentality had gone back to kindergarten stage.. you came in to class, sing a song, clap hands, take out your work book and draw a diagram with 6 branches using magic colours, each branch must be different colour and you draw what you did the day before.. then you learn to fold airplanes, draw, juggling etc.. um... i am sorry, yeah, most of it encourage you to learn how to be collaborative with others.. but i do not find it much helpful, my role there, the only thing i like about it is probably my role as a translator..
but i wont say i did not learn anything, i did.. i learn to be a bit more patient.. because in the classroom activity, my buddy is a girl that has attention problem.. i dunno.. thats what i think, she is 18 and i think, inexperience about the world, nor did she care about it.. i was her translator too and she never listen.. it seems as if the only thing she is interested in are boys... hmmm.. i wonder why, maybe i am never a person who devote the whole of my attention in the opposite sex.. i prefer to use my brains and work, from there, i derive ultimate happiness that nothing can replace.. and i am glad that the officer from the ministry as well as the commander of my camp understands..
but as stated in my previous blog, i really met some great friends that i hope, can still keep in touch after they are released in september.. heng wen, she came from the same uni as i and i forgot, maybe it is because we are never the same course, and she is very pretty and i think, can easily be a socialite.. xia, an architect who just got a job few days before she got the notification for ns.. she is nice and i enjoy listening to her gossip about the discrimination they suffered in camp.. fanny, a year younger than i and probably, my great companion as she used to sleep close to me.. she is a clerk who has just resigned for ns and wanted to aim for the sales line, she likes singing, especially SHE's songs.. and she does have a good voice.. guess i will miss the days we hid together and eat some simple breakfast instead of the oily food they provide.. mei sze, my company secretary's daughter, she is still a bit young but she is somehow a kind hearted child.. mei hoon, cute sweet little mei hoon.. kind and sweet, despite her cute looks and short height, she is a mature girl, good natured and sweet.. i will miss her.. ong, 18 years as well, very quiet but she is kind.. i remember when i was sick, she sat next to me and watch me sleep.. she is a good girl really... who else i forgot? oh ya, mel, i think she is the best malay, i translated tonghua for her.. she can sing nicely wei!!
despite the friends i made, i miss using my brains and i cant wait till next monday when i can return to work again.. =) excited excited!!
