First & Foremost

Call me crazy, siao on, nuts, whatever, I don't care. I'm not one crazy enough to run in and die for no apparent reason, probably even for apparent reasons. I just stand by my principles.

I've always been taught that I should be proud of what I am and who I am. I am proud of my uniform and I take my time to ensure it is in good condition. You may ask why I am so patriotic towards a country with a government which seemingly only cares for itself? I don't give a fuck about this country's government. I do give a fuck however, about the land which I come from and about the people of Singapore, my fellow brethren. It's 2 whole fucking years, at least make the most of it right?

I am a PES E9L9 personnel, no doubt about that. I did not ask for it neither did I expect it. However, I won't let this phase me. Every job is created for a reason and I take pride in my work and myself. That is why I wear the knife, gear and platform on my collar.

If you're gonna do something, do it properly. I'd rather attend courses and do something more worthwhile than just laze around all day just because I am certified to laze around. There's just simply no point in wasting 2 fucking years of my life away like that.

I may be idealistic by being so enthusiastic about what I am doing, especially since everyone says it's just a "wayang" army. But the 7 core values were set down by people who sincerely believed in their mission and I feel that's something worth upholding. If everyone were to give up their idealistic dreams because everyone else told them to, what dreams would there be left?

Like I said, I want to help save the world. As long as I hold on to my ideals, this dream, this vision, it will never die. Ethics. It's not about taking the easiest way out, it's about taking the tougher, but right way through.

You can call me stubborn, blinded and naive. You can tear me down with whatever words you can think of. But I do what I believe to be right. You will not take away my pride.
