Its times like this when you're all alone, all focus turns onto your very self. You stare into the mirror, wondering if you've taken any of the people back home for granted.
I finally found an answer in a book as to why my life took a change for the better in the army. Through my years in secondary school and polytechnic life, it was just plain sailing through. Hoping for a miracle; which happened, or I'd probably have failed for every paper.
These decisions which I made, or didn’t make will follow me through till my skin grows crumply. Never did I realize that life's never going to be all smooth sailing, easy going. Although I felt all grown up, my life was still as it was 10 years ago. There isn’t a transition period into adulthood and it certainly doesn’t start on a new page. Everything will follow me through and I see it now.
In the past, when a boy turns thirteen, he's considered to be a grown man. All ready to get married, because he has to grow up. Because the decisions he make will affect tomorrow.
Things will never happen till we make them work. Thinking back, I wished I had helped out with my projects in school. I wished I hadn’t let all my peers down.
Grow up, little boy.
Just had my first sortie(flight) today. I think I did pretty okay. We did aerobatics to test if we'd get airsick and I didnt puke. Things are starting to pile on and the pace is picking up. Update next time.
