hey guys, just wanna say that
if from 2.5 years (now shortened to effective 2, knn)
you've learnt some stuff, learnt to be more independent, become
tougher, can tahan more nonsense from people, make some friends,
then it's not wasted.
NS can destroy some people, i know; strip them of their self
confidence and some even their sanity. This is tragic, and the
problem is not with National Service itself, but the people who are
in it!
If you are currently serving NS, and you see someone having some
trouble coping, ie. find it hard to adapt, overloaded with work,
always kena bully... i urge you to make an effort to help them.
then everyone get through okay and you feel good that you have
helped.
Wat dosent break you, makes you stronger. Hope that is what happens
to 99.9% of our guys.
