The Time has come...

Sometime last week, while I was still mugging for my Mid-Years... My mum suddenly interrupted me, and told me to take a look at this:



I saw the word MINDEF, the first word that came out my mouth was 'Fuck'

Next 2 words was 'ing shit'

Of course, the next 2 seconds witnessed my mother slapping my head.

"Oei oei oei! How can you say like that!"

Of course, how can women understand. ITS NATIONAL SERVICE

AND I HATE THE IDEA OF BLOWING 2.5 YEARS INTO SOMETHING I DON'T REALLY HAVE MUCH FAITH IN.

I opened the letter immediately, and I saw this:



ALRIGHT!!! "WOOT"!!! "HURRAY"!!! THIS IS IT!!! THIS IS IT!!!

Over the years I've received those letters celebrating the philosophus gloriosus of the Singapore Armed Forces. I knew they acted like warnings to the upcoming compulsory National Service I had always dreaded. But this is it, this is the climax. I have to register for NS now. Glory...

Anyhow... I think I really think it shouldn't be that bad for me, and furthermore, NO SCHOOL FOR 2.5 YEARS how cool's that? That's like woah... Now the thought of it makes me excited. But I've always wondered if we would lose out alot in University (that's if I can make it into one) because we've been M.I.A (missing in action) for 2.5 years on our work? It really makes me wonder...

Afterall, its not that bad after all right?

I mean, your girlfriend starts realising that you have got pimply face and detesting your odour of your uniform.
I mean, your girlfriend just probably feels that its not the awful look of your uniform is just too un-glam and that the all those brawn just doesn't do a wee bit to salvage the entire un-glamness of it all.
I mean, your girlfriend will just start going out with cuter guys who have all the chances in the world to get closer with her while you're slogging your candy ass out for your country, or so they say.
I mean, your girlfriend will be in the company of kebillion other guys who are much more mature than you are, because they have completed NS while you are still the boy boy serving your bloody NS.
I mean, worse come to worse, your girlfriend just ditches you and goes off with another guy like those traditional soap operas we see on local television.

But again, why am I thinking along such lines? Unless...

NOPE NOPE NOPE, IVAN'S SINGLE NOW =)
>>>STILL AM.<<<
