glasgow morning.
"I’m grateful for anything that reminds me of what’s possible in this life. Books can do that. Films can do that. Music can do that. School can do that. It’s so easy to allow one day to simply follow into the next, but every once in a while we encounter something that shows us that anything is possible, that dramatic change is possible, that something new can be made, that laughter can be shared."

Bricks and Concrete
It's been slightly more than two weeks, and it felt long.

My stint as a cadet at engineer training institute felt extremely long despite it's just two week and I still have probably 10 more weeks to go.

and my weekends, became so fixed, like a routine, spending my Saturday out, then studying on Sunday morning before booking back in. Of course, there's a exception this week, where I'm doing guard duties tmr. This roughly translate to burning one of my weekend. /sigh

Well, all have been well, lessons after lessons, then practical lessons, then test, then rinse and repeat. This is army too. Things are picking up, and the feeling of real true responsibilities are finally beginning to bear their own weight.

and sometimes, i kinda feel happy to do saikang, even more with my sectionmates too.
and my bunkmates are equally hilarious to top my nights off.

At the very least, I learnt to like what I'm given, make the best of it, and looking at the brightest side of everything.

Think of the most horrible things you are doing is by default, anything better, is a definitely a bonus to be happy about.
