Thursday, July 02, 2009
Today is 2 July 2009. Today is a Thursday. Today, there is no training. Today is a very uneventful day.But today, the postings for Part C '09 were announced.
The postings were unexpected; the reaction from the girls was not.
Every year, we see it all happening. Some people cry, some people are angry, some people are shocked. Some people are busy comforting the rest, and secretly feeling happy for themselves. There are some, on the other hand, who feel that they deserved more. Also, there will definitely be a bunch who's gonna go OMG-IT'S-MY-FAULT-THAT-XXX-IS-SO-SAD-NOW. It's all happening, whether you admit it or not. If you're in NCC long enough, you probably know what I'm talking about. Twice so if you're an NCC girl.
It pains me to see my girls upset. I've been through the same old shit, and that feeling really sucks. Without it, however, you may never get to see their true colours.
I have to admit that two years ago I didnt respond very well when I first heard my post. The first thought I had was OH SHIT, and then my whole world kinda collapsed.
But things turned out fine, didnt they?
Like what Meilin said last year, cut all those crying and just accept your fate. I wished I had done that once I got my post. It took me quite a while before the truth really sank in, that I was just a Platoon Sergeant. A Platoon Sergeant and nothing more than that.
Today, the girls asked me if I have ever regretted not getting the USM post I was dying for two years ago. I didnt say much, but actually, I do have regrets. I just wish I was a better PS. I could have done alot more with the time I spent feeling sad and everything. I could have started loving the girls the moment I got my post.
Yet I didnt.
I dont know how the future is gonna be like. But I hope the girls will remember something - everything happens for a reason. It's time to move on now. At least when you step down, you can gladly assure yourself that you dont have any regrets. Perhaps on that day you'll realise that the postings actually make sense.
Just like how I did.
My name is Corrine and I dont think I really know who I am anymore. This is my blog, and maybe from here you'll find that I'm not exactly like the Corrine you used to think you knew.
