202 days to ORD...or about 6.5 months till the day i get out of the Army and out of a life...filled with weeks of sweating in a dirty uniform that is worn day after day without any washing...construction-worker-esque jobs...MC work that involves me dealing with people with
very weird ideas...a lot of things lah.
An organisation filled with administration lapses, personnel who don't deserve to be where they are...and it's one where everyone of a higher rank than you is considered your boss (regardless of how clueless he/she is..which makes for a LOT of bosses to deal with) and where dozens of umbrella rules get created everyday just to address minor problems.
I'm in an organisation like that, and it's 202 days..or around just 125 working days till i get out.
But what am i saying...that's still a very long way to go. It's constantly in my mind, however...i'm not really sure why, but it's probably because many people in my company are beginning to pack up as well, and i constantly hear the plans they have after they ORD.
And so i've begun thinking of things to do after i ORD. For example, i've been looking at jobs to do after ORD and hobbies that i can pursue (like manga-drawing or playing certain video games or something along those lines). I've also been thinking about possible hairstyles that i could have from November onwards...i'm kinda looking forward to keeping my sideburns and actually having enough hair at the back of my head (yes..no more slope! no more slope!) to use wax on. Definitely not as extreme as Cloud-san - the person on the left of this screen that makes guys want to go for plastic surgery - but well, something along those lines.
Ahwell..i'll have enough time during guard duty to think of things like these. For now though, i've got other worries. I've been winning quite a bit at mahjong recently, but weekend life is still quite the same as usual...mahjong-anime-dota-driving lessons and nothing else.
Camp life is even more worrisome. I scraped my right knee last week and it's bloody infected..but i've still got guard duty and very physical stuff coming up next week which i don't think i can get myself excused from. Last week was awfully busy and tiring, and it's going to stay that way until about mid-May. Well, if i survive until the end of May, i MIGHT just be in the mood to go out for a movie or to splurge at some expensive restaurant. Or to host a party at my new place which should be ready by that time.
But for now...it's booking-in time..sigh..so i suppose i'd better get ready to go...
