..:: 736. June Summary ::..

in the end i didnt make it to bali. sick. good thing was that i saved another 2 days of leave. it was nice to be back in office to receive all the congratulations for my emplacement/promotion. felt the pressure to perform putting on the new rank.

jun 18. promotion ceremony. sadly this year they chose to exclude those on emplacement, meaning to say i wont have a chance to go up stage and shake chief of army's hand. made myself useful by helping out at the registration. all the scenarios that you can think of: promotees coming with their spouses and did not rsvp. some even brought their kids despite advice not to. NS men who did not know how to wear uniform properly.

the month of june was spent drinking wine and watching world cup. watching the opening match between south africa and mexico at chijmes was a great experience. went to catch the "unmistaken child".

looking forward to my bkk trip and the book-over-dinner-trip to HCM, vietnam.
