Bob's grandpa went to the ever-sleeping land last friday. When he received the news, he was shocked, at at the same time, i could his sadness.......but i do not know what to say to him. The platoon then came up with a sum of money and passed it to him (chinese culture to give peh kim). We could see the way he tried to hold his tears, as he thanked us for it. It's such little things that you do for people that will touch them. Bob is strong, and he's back to get himself those black bars on his shoulders.
9 months in OCS have left me with a lot of good memories. Yes there were bad experiences, but i don't bother remembering them. Good memories last, bad memories.....lost. Alot of feelings attached to the room i've stayed in for the past 9 months, the room with that special aroma which no one knows where it exactly come from. We sang, we played the guitar, we conversed. And tomorrow will be the last day i'll use that room. You ask me how i feel about leaving that place, I say it's a mixture of happiness and sadness.
And so we've come to an end of a book, and it's time to start another.
1 more day.
