just two more days till i pass out from bmt as a private. but before that, i collected my A level results yesterday and was quite disappointed at it when i first thought that i could not get into law. i really felt as though it was the end of the world since it is more or less a dream of mine to go into law ever since i came to a realisation of this world's true colours. that was until today when david said that i may stand a chance to go into the course since my UES lands smack on the dot based on the information given on the website. so i do hope that my application is successful when i apply for it in a few days time. till then, i don't think i'll be doing much celebration.

spent last night with my classmates eating dinner and went to watch watchmen at the cinema at west mall. it was quite a nice movie, quite a bit of action as expected of the same director who directed 300 in addition to quite a bit of gore. of course, the most important thing i feel about the movie are the underlying messages in the action. SPOILERS: is peace and world unity that is achieved by the sacrificing of many innocents to save the rest of the world still correct and who else can we blame but humans that has resulted in a corrupted world that we now live in? when i heard these lines, i drew parallels with the gundam 00 series which has the protaganists having to use force against people who advocate and participate in conflict so as to stop conflict and result in a united world. i guess it's one of the more pressing issues in an increasingly divided world. it's time that someone or some people takes the lead instead of just standing at the sidelines and watch as politicians continue their futile bickering with one another. though we live in a small country, i believe that we have the talent and the potential to do so much for this world.

back to my classmates, a majority of them did very well with a few exceptions which came as a shock when their results were beyong extraordinary. anyway, i congratulate them and wish them good luck in whichever course they choose to go to in future. i pray that i'll always be close to this group of individuals for besides them, i have very few people whom i can trust wholeheartedly. seriously, i'll feel much better fighting alongside my friends even if our enemies outnumber us a 100 to 1 as compared to my platoon mates whom i'll be more worried of shooting me in the back. so please don't grow apart, especially my inner circle of friends.



i pray that we'll always be together,
be it through thick or thin,
be it in darkness or light,
we'll always be connected.
