upgrading complete!

FINALLY i get the feeling I'm working in a real office environment thanks to the latest change of working platform in SAF.

honestly it has been a long wait. haha.. now i can actually enjoy typing out stuff to my still-status-unknown understudy so that in the event he still doesn't materialise when I'm off clearing leave then he should have a manual of the stuff i know.

i've given up complaining about not having an understudy and whatever, though i still feel sianz when i see my fellow PCs starting to do their FFIs and clearance forms.. the computers have been a good distraction =)

just realized it's slightly less/more than one month before i really start clearing off and leaves and whatever, wel depending on my OC's grace... one month before everyone familiar disappears and everything is thrown in the loop again..

funny isn't it? I remember in OCS during the last few months or so when we were labouring around the parade square getting "put-in-shape" by RSM and wishing that time would pass so fast so that we would commission... that might actually have been the most fun time of OCS, where friendships were set in stone and we could talk about anything we wanted to... it was a time where there were no inhibitions cos everyone knew each other well enough liao, and we were basically having a blast of a time..

yet.. all we were thinking of was how to make the time pass fast, to wish and hope and will for Commissioning Parade to arrive.

and then when it happens, we feel a sudden emptiness and rawness, that things HAVE changed. and the fun times cannot be relived. a reunion can only spur some memories back but that's it.. no more liao.

seems like deja vu now too, that everyone is actually so chummy liao and enjoying each other's company but then at the same time EVERYONE is just hoping and inching towards the ultimate goal of ORD.

oh well... just make the best use of this 1 plus month i guess..
