So, let's see.. It's been ages since I last posted something on my blog.

Well, here I am as an armament technician. Going no doubt has it's up and downs. But we have been quite busy recently. Loads of stuff to settle. Not only do I have work to settle, I have to also settle my university stuff.

Somehow, I've been thinking about a lot of stuff. Some stuff simply is between me and God which I won't talk about here. Mainly what I'm thinking about now is advancement in my NS life and my career. Both somehow affects each other.

I guess many have heard about my intentions to sign on. However, I've heard that unless I'm at least a specalist, I cannot sign as an officer. There is a slim chance that I can go for the section commander course. But currently on paper, another guy is the section 2I/C. Some of my friends who think that I deserve it told me that I should fight to go for the course openly. But I'm in a dilemma. It won't be nice to fight openly. Furthermore, a lot of my platoonmates have treated my buddy as the 2I/C already. So I was thinking that it might be a blow to him should it turn out that he isn't going for the course. But it's my career we are talking about here.. So it really troubles me. I don't really like the thought of having to fight with my buddy for "promotion". I believe that it's for the authorities to decide. But some argue that you have to make yourself visible.. I really don't know what's my next step to take.

This is the only problem I'm facing now that I'm willing to talk about. Guess I'll keep the rest private for now.

Coincidentally, one of the SAF merit scholar recepients this year has the same name as me. He is Cephas Ong while my surname is Kong. If only.. Never the less, congrats sir!
