Lethargic is how I am feeling now, after stopping work since last Thursday, I find it hard to maintain the minimal momentum remaining from that last day..... Another 37 days, I should be free from here. Missed Singapore alot. Of course it had been fun here too and there're wonderful experiences. In fact this blog will be more boring if not for the little adventures I had here. Furthermore..the purpose of my course is to acquire marine engineering knowledge and be more competent as NEO. Life back in Singapore would have been routine. Sometimes I wonder why..and the reason I could provide for myself of losing all the passion for stayin overseas must have been age and priorities. Unlike my younger days when I felt all ready to go for overseas adventures, I have since grown to be attached to my partner and family members and will always look forward to going back home after my trip oversesas (even when my partner is with me). Maybe 8 months period is really long. I miss my swimming, diving, cycling, asian food (I don't cook well, anyway cooking facilities not available here), sports climbing (learned but no opportunities to take it up actively), jogging up Mt Faber, SAFRA, playing pool, church services, city lights, fresh air of greenery, my kitchen, my studyroom....the list goes on. Eh, not forgetting my life here is rather coolz too, meeting foreign navies' personnel, having a meal with our partner, the Malaysian and Pakistanis, cheonging with the ang mohs, having lessons with them, talked to very experienced sailors, watching theatre shows in London, shopping at modest Fareham Shopping Centre, vibrant active sea sports life by the locals, travelling in national express, saying Good Morning everyday, working my 72 muscles to smile numerous times daily....OKay, life's not that bad..besides all the tests and assessments:P
