A year ago, the very first ever IPPT gold badge earned, sewed on and POP marched with a borderline score during BMT. Throughout the 1year 2 days, today, I'm glad that I can say it's more than a commando gold, even more than just a borderline and that I've never looked back once. ✌🏼️

10months since last IPPT and dropped by 9 points to a 87. 😞 Reality check hurts. ☹☹ Better nail it prim and proper this coming Friday!! 💪🏼🔥 Anws, cool poster in gym. 🙌🏼

His love endures forever and ever. Happy Good Friday everybody!! 😊 #chameleon (at St James' Church, Singapore)

I tried looking for a happy picture and this came up. Its been more than half a year since I passed out as a sergeant and all I had been doing since then was helping out with the 'transition'😏 from 10th mono to 11th mono and of course brushing up my basic military disciplines to pass on to the recruits. 6 months of not touching anything related to my vocation as an armour engineer and finally, tmr marks the day my recruits return as freshly minted privates 🔰and pioneers to be. More than a year since army began for me and these peeps in the picture, from being a blur blur recruit to a section commander starting tomorrow. In the next 8-1/4 months ahead, from trades to outfields, I'm pretty sure there will be mistakes made, by others and me, but I do believe that for every mistake made, is a new lesson learnt, an area to improve upon, of which we can use to pull ourselves out from the mud and move forward. Of course, what is army without the fellow soldier and brother in arm behind you, beside you, and even in front of you. It is through all these friends that we can learn to tahan that little bit more and be braver that little bit more to see the next sunrise. Two weeks ago was the first time in my life someone(s) ever told me he or she was envy how everyone can talk to me about problems and there's always people around me and that i can tank so much. To these dear friends, thank you. I'm just a human too. Nothing great really. Perhaps army changed us?! HAHA Of course, in the months ahead, I believe 有苦也有甜的时候. Already looking forward to the pain to be shared and the laughters to be shared with my men, ps and pc be it true army or simple outings over the weekends together. Lastly, really thankful for the 1 week break from army. It was the most welcoming, refreshing and recharging break I've ever had, from catching up with old friends to jym adventure camp, to badminton with the engineers to young adult cell to yesterday's super nice music by shu ying. So to all friends, army or not, walk humbly, love deeply, laugh lots. Ups or downs, we will get there. 😊😊 **to these peeps & rest of 01/15 ulysses p3s1 in the pictures, I miss u guys 😭😭 (at Leader's Square, Pasir Laba Camp)

Most of Mono BMT block "off" week was a really meaningful one, a first for everything, from Climbmax manoeuvring through obstacles in the sky, parajumping with a leap of faith off a 15m building, flying foxing from hilltop to sea while snapchatting ✌🏼️, night luge cart driving, leading devotions to 1st time trying Krispy Kreme. Most important of all, am really glad the younger ones enjoyed all of these and become braver and stronger through our Father!! :) Special thanks to fellow older ones with everything @dappenfong @dnesss_ @joshuaspacelai @issac and even the older younger ones @netballonfirejr @ryan_goh_go_gadget @jasonlorhh (at Sentosa Island Palawan Beach)

Block leave is meant for adventures!! And I'm glad that the kids had fun too!! 😊 Ft. Team Water!! 💧 #jymadventurecamp #2016 (at Sentosa Island Palawan Beach)
