Report 0605 for Guard Duty Tomorrow
Don't be Late
One minute later
Cancel last order. RSM has requested all guard duty personnel to report back camp
by tonight. Please book in by 2359 if you are not already in camp
SHOCKEDSMS him tell him i cannot answer his call cause i was at service. Tell him i will report back to camp by 1am because i still need time to go back pack and then cab back to campHis reply :
NO BARGAINHastily left service and waited for the bus back home
Packed and went to MAC to grab something then took a cab back to camp
What a way to start the new year off
Served my 01 Jan 2008 24hours Guard Duty
Next Day , i didn't even have my 4 hours guard rest after my 24 hour duty
CSM shock us again with stunt
Luckily i was spared cause i had to prepare all the admin portion for the course
Later on , i had coordination meeting at 2pm that day till late which got me worried because still a lot of things not deconflicted yet
Thursday went past rather quickly and i focused on what mattered on hand
Stay till 2200 HRS in office thinking of any course preparation for the first day
Friday had LIVE program in the morning
They introduced interval training
COOL
Something new always eh?
Stand By Area of my bunk before i booked out super late 1820HRS
Rushed to REACHLIGHT
What greeted me in REACHLIGHT was the intense HEAT due to the air con malfunction
I was like in my black ZARA tee , Le Coq Sportif Jacket , Levi Jeans and Adidas Sneakers
Sweat just kept rolling down my face
and i could not concentrate on the worship
Quickly took off my jacket after praise and worship
The sermon was much better than the last one
But there are still rooms for improvements though =)
A few of the cell peeps signed up for a reachlight gathering this coming Jan 19th
Supper with the gang was good
The truth is we all live in this world where we want instant gratification
We want things to *SNAP* and happen
But truth in all , laying the foundation right is very important
Although i still believe in changing what i feel is unacceptable
I am gradually accepting what i cannot change
I will of course support this ministry. Dun worry guys!!
I am worried about the course starting next monday
I feel so unprepared
Like so many things i felt that i have overlooked although i started preparing rather early
My stand is never expect others what you yourself cannot do
How am i supposed to impart and teach them the right attitude and skillsets they need to be a commander when i myself am not in the correct mindset?
I need to be able to answer to myself
Help me LORD
