over the hills and far away.

so here we go. some 24 hrs later we would be falling in and making our way over the brunei training facility and ultimately, to the brunei jungles and up the mountains. probably gonna be like the most defining moment for us all in the infantry wing as to what everyone else says, and gonna be even more memorable thanks to our awesome monsoon season unleashing down rain till it floods till the waist levels at the survival sites. but im kinda looking forward to it in a way, like how often do u get to spend 3 days being totally alone and with nothing to distract yourself with except maybe the stuff u have to construct and all. real good opportunity to spend real quiet time with God in all the ways that matter.

i recall some two weeks into ocs when i realised the role of the cadet wing sergeant major(cwsm), i told myself that the one who gets the appointment for brunei is totally sad and pitiful, besides being the busiest person alive. and lo and behold, "cswm: shawn". haha thanks alot. oh God i need your peace and wisdom to handle this as effectively and efficiently as i can. let me not fall ill or anything like that, let me handle it with You.

okay anyway, i did be gone tmr night till the 7th of dec. jungle confidence course so they call it, hope it all goes well and no one fails it. God help me make the wise and right choices during the navigation phase and help me lead my group well, lead my group by your grace and direction.

so till then people. and gosh one tree hill is getting unbelievably good. come on give me a tv or a computer in brunei.
