There's lots that I would like to say but I shall do it briefly.
Firstly, after reading Qinjie's blog post on the CUG Council Ceremony, I've lots of emotions running through my head. Like we always say, time flies. One after another council ceremony since we took over our units. Till now....
Year after year, I've been thinking about our bond. The bond among the UGs. Is it still there? Is it as strong as before or is it superficial?
Also, after talking to Dinie throughout the whole bus journey from Ngee ann poly back to AMK about our unit stuffs and Sir Lester. Yup, I would like to mention a little about him.
He is one senior that i really look up to.
He is one outstanding leader that could influence and motivate us.
I'm always looking for these values in the leaders that I've been grooming and also in myself.
He is one with impactful words.
Up till now, I can still remember vividly the CUGC when I was a sec 2 cadet. Fyi, it was 4 years ago.
That was when i've came to know Sir Lester cause he "tekan-ed" us.
I dont remember him for the punishments but for the values that he taught us.
I'll remember him for the one who always managed to influence us and made us march with pride during combined UG drills no matter how tired we were or how uncooperative we were back then.
After some talkings or scoldings from him, we were all energized and make sure we march with pride just like we were marching in a National Day Parade.
I'll also remember him for one who would always give us a sense of fear whenever he comes back to amkss especially during camps.
actually madm joanne is one good example too. Hais, just that they dont really come back anymore. I really want to be like them, as good as them but i realised that i can't after trying for these few years. Maybe that's what makes those previous batches of seniors unique.
Perhaps cadets nowadays cant take all those scoldings anymore.
Another thing is about POP or should i say the feeling that my sec4s felt after NCC Air ROD. I felt it too though I've actually graduated since 2 years ago. I understand how and what you girls are actually feeling now cause dont forget I've gone through this phrase before.
I know that feeling of she bu de,
that feeling of regret for not doing more or not trying hard enough.
Actually, just to let you know, through experiences, no matter how hard one tries, one would still have this little bit of regrets even though i always tell my sec4s to leave or step down with no regrets.
No matter how much we love our unit, we still have to let go, step down to focus on our examinations.
Though time is running out but i guess there's still a little time for you girls to do things that you would like to do before you step down. Dont complain for not having enough time but why not cherish the last few moments that you've still left so that the journey of your NCO life would be complete.
Last but not least, let me thank you all for all your efforts put in for the unit. I've seen it right from day 1 of your NCO life. (actually you all did it when you are a cadet too) From all the competitions like FAC, CAC, FDC, Arts Fest and those inter UG ones too. Of course, for maintaining EUA and CSA Gold too. Good job girls!
You know something?
I miss those times that we did all the cheers esp the ones from RCYC together.
Even if we do it now again, it'll never be the same anymore.
Cause every moment holds a different feeling.
Lastly, I seriously miss my batch de people.
Though we dont have much time for each other as compared to last time but i do hope that bond is still there, you know?
