The One with the Island of Dread

Okay. It's a sunday night. Most people will dread the next day mainly because it's a work day! Same here. Dread!!! Monday is such a nice day. But I have to go back to that off-shore island called Tekong.

Seriously, what percentage of Singaporean males who is currently undergoing National Service or already completed it actually liked it? Bery little I guess. Of course there are the ones who wants to take military life as a career but let's not include them. National Service is really a waste of time!!

Yaya, you get hands on experience on what it is to fight a war. You get paid higher next time you work. You will mature into an adult after you served NS. Hello? Anyone who actually believe in this is a total snob. Firstly, the higher pay thingy, it only applies if you are planning to work for the Government. I mean, tell me, how many private companies out there actually consider whether or not you went through the Army. Tell me!! How many? Second, if serving National Service is what one calls, the Metamorphism of a teenage male to men, does that mean males in countries who doesn't practice army conscription don't turn to men? I mean, what is the Government thinking? Look further!!! Switzerland is a much better place to serve National Service!

So what's the moral of the story?

Army sucks!
