IT'S BEEN SO LOOOONG SINCE I LAST POSTED. Evidently because I had to study for SPM and after that I have to go to national service. At 1st when I heard I was going to NS, I was shocked. I really didn't want to go because I want to enjoy after getting SPM off my shoulders. My parents used to nag me by saying, :"You can play as much as you want, after SPM. Even if you dont sleep for 3 days playing your PS2, I won't say a word." And I really planned to not sleep to keep on playing. But as fate decide, I'm going to NS.
At 1st, i felt NS was a waste of time. My cousins told me it was a waste of time, my parents told me it is a waste of time and practically all other relatives of mine say it is a waste of time. And I still felt that way till halfway in NS. Until that is, when one of the teachers in NS, came to the kompeni I was in and poured out his heart. None of the teachers there realised the racism issue that was at large in the camp, and so everyone in my kompeni told him and understood why everyone in camp is so uncooperative. In under a week, most of us are already cooperative except for some bastards who don't want to listen. I was so impressed and respected him for it. At the last night of NS, he said to all the people in the camp, :"Among all batches of people i have guided in NS thusfar, your batch is the one that improved the most in this camps history, although the results of the competition this year wasn't as good as the others, yours showed the most enthusiasm." And after that we sang some farewell songs, and he did something unexpected. He CRIED!! He hugged everyone in the camp, tears flowing as he went.
After NS, My 1st thought was, "finally, it's over.", and a few hours after i got my SPM results, he PHONED my cellphone and ask about my result. I WAS SO SHOCKED THAT I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY. After calming down awhile, we chatted and have a few laughs. The rest of that day, my smile was evident even from miles away.
And I want everyone to know that his name is Azhar,from camp Segari.(kumpulan 1 / siri 6 / tahun 2009)
And i thought to mself, is NS a waste of time? Nope, if you get chosen, don't get discouraged. Join in all the activities and find out how NS truly felt. Of course there are some downsides in NS, but I'll leave it at another time. Most probably i'll post some pictures from the camp.
