Yesterday was Social Night... Came back home rather late, so didn't blog and slept already...
The food was rather bland, the setting and atmosphere was alright...
Oh, thank you Christine for being my date for the night.
Booked out at 2pm, then went to pick up my date and headed for SAFTI... Oh... Got my posting before entering the mess... Infantry... Seriously, at that point of time, I felt like crying. I didn't want to go to Infantry... In fact, most of my platoon mates didn't want to go there... But there's nothing I can do... Starting to accept the sad fact already.
Tried not to think too much, less spoiling the already short night. There were games in the midst of the whole dinner, and to begin with, everybody was socialising... haha... yea, the true purpose of Social Night... For guys to see each other for the last few times, and for the ladies to know each other... haha... but didn't really work out that way for the ladies. Oh, there was a video outlining the 3 months training screened... Quite touching... And of course, there was much explanation to our dates because they didn't know what we were doing... So you can hear alot of whisperings... haha...
Finally, the whole dinner culminated into a lucky draw and some awards presentation. I won home a foot massager... WTF... Actually, it's supposed to be my date's number... haha... I didn't feel like taking it home actually... haha... but i still did.
I suddenly had a feeling last night. A long lost feeling. I was pondering on my way home last night if I should rekindle that feeling... but there were so many 'buts'...
"It's not easy to be girlfriends or wives of officer cadets and officers"... That's what my Wing Commander said in his speech... The question about if I should have a girlfriend or not still remains unanswered...
