Sori! tis is a post dated one. Wanted to write tis earlier bt due to ur..hmm.. haha! Lazy lah! Nw den I write ;p
Abt 1/2 yr since my most memorable & most impt reservist of my life, I finally kana called up again for ICT fr 10/07/06 to 21/07/06.
I cn still vividly rem fr my last reservist, hw I slowly change fr telling pple tat after book out, I am goin' to mit my "fren" to telling pple tat I am goin' to mit my "girlfren"! Tis time round, I cn proudly say tat I am goin' to mit my girlfren, my dear lovely Devona!
The reservist came at a right time becos I had juz tendered my resignation. By e time I came back fr my reservist & later on Bintan trip which I will talk abt it in e nxt blog, I oni left 2 days in Pioneer! If I dun go for reservist & cont' workin' in e company, I dun tink I cn motivate myself to work hard & I dun wan to let my standard slip too much when I leave e company. Anyway, let's talk abt e reservist lah..
Tis is e 1st time tat I came for ICT wif my new rank 3rd Seargent. I was promoted when I completed my MP Specs II Course durin' tat most impt reservist of my life. Bt..in reservist, being a specialist is e worst u cn ask for!
U r stuck in bet e men & e officers! Suddenly I found myself got so many extra responsibilities! For eg, we had live firin' at SAFTI Range. All e men after finish their shootin', they cn relax, sleep, chit chat, makan, watch TV etc.. Bt for me, juz becos I'm a specialist nw, I got extra duties! I'm appointed e PIC for arms clearin', I got to clear each detail when they came back fr their shoot. I can't relax, I can't sleep leh!!! & for some reason, I believe my Unit muz have made a mistake; they r sendin' me for MP Specs I Course end of tis yr! Tis a course for CSM & Platoon Seargent leh! Upon completion of e course, I will be promoted again leh! Hey! Hey! I am NSMen leh! I am reservist leh! Which mean they r goin' to promote me every year leh! I muz be damn gd or they tink I sh be signin' on in e Army! Anyway, I appealin' to my Unit liao..hopefully, wif my finger crossed, I wun be goin' for tis yr end course.
Durin' tis ICT, there is a really memoriable event for me. I am makin' my actin' debut in a short film! Y got such thing?
Aiya! Nwadays, Army oso operates juz like a company. They oso hv their values, missions & goals. We r suppose to come out wif a short performance to illustrate L.I.V.E. L as in Leadership & Learning, I as in Image & Identity, V as in Values & E as in Positive Army Experience.
Our CSM came up wif e idea of makin' a short film to illustrate e diff exp by 2 Private soldiers, one of course is e gd exp & e other one is e bad one lah! 1st part show Private Beng kana pushed ard, punished by his "bad" Platoon Seargent. "bad" PC & "bad" CSM juz becos he wanted to take 2 days compassionate leave due to his grandmum critically ill. On e other hand, Private Ismil in e same situation bt he was treated differently & nicer by his "more humane" Platoon Seargent. My role is e "bad" Platoon Seargent! It is a very difficult role for me becos I am actually a very nice guy in nature mah :) I nid to shout & scream at my men & tis is really nt my style!
So..do u all wan to c Kenneth Loh e actor debut on e big screen? Wan to c mah? For a few lucky pple tat went to Melvin's place to c his baby together wif me & my dear Devona, they r "treated" wif tis short film tat shortcast my debut act! I oso realli wanted to share on my blog for all my frens to c..it is really very funny & I'm sure it will be heavily downloaded, I'm sure! Becos it is so funny & so close to us! Too bad e baby is too small to c, if nt I'm sure he will wan it to be replayed & replayed & replayed, haha! So unless I cn find hw to put tis short film on my blog or maybe someone cn teach me. The file size is big, 105Mb & e length of e film is 7min 19sec; tat make it difficult for me to put it on my blog. If anyone cn help me on tis, pls help ok?
Ok lah, Gotta go, time to slp liao. Take Care & Hope I will be back soon ;p
