I've decided to change my blogskin... like finally. i can't exactly remember when i last did it, but i think it was roughly 4 years ago. Meaning, i have been sticking to that old blogskin for 4 years! That's quite a record. Haha. It's not that im lazy to do it(okay.. partly i admit), but i really really liked the old one. But, like an old wise man says, you have to move on and change for the better. In this rapidly-changing world, you have to constantly keep up with the pace with the society you are living in. Get it? Haha you know what i mean. At least a simple thing like, a new look for my blog, shows that im learning to accept with the changes happening around me.
Talking about a rapidly-changing world, i was sad to hear about the several disasters that has been happening recently. Just take a look at the 7.6-magnitude earthquake. Only in West Sumatra itself, it is feared that more than 1,300 people is dead. And to think about what happened to the 400 people having a wedding celebration in Pulau Air, all gone sucked 30m into the earth from a landslide. What does this shows about the earth and nature? Scientifically speaking, the earth is getting old and this 'rapidly-changing world', not only refers to the modern technology and infrastructure, but also to the climate and the environment that we are living in. It is just embarass to say that, as Modern Man is going into a new era, the ageing chart of the earth also grows exponentially. A Modern Man supposed to know exactly how to improve one's life, but on the same time, be conscious about the environment and not be selfish about his own well-being. In a religious point of view, as a Muslim, i have to say that people have the tendency to pray and in search of His help only when they are in need. It is important for us to have faith in our respectives beliefs and continously pray for the best of health and life. Don't lose hope when you are down and thank Him for the blessings you cherish.
Personally, i feel really blessed living in Singapore. Even if its just a small hot country which people complaint about, I would gladly say it is the safest place for us to live in, and that's the best thing you could ever ask for especially at this depressing period. So let's support and contribute whatever we can for our fellow friends out there who are in need of help. Be it prayers or donations of money or clothes or volunteer work, let's do something good today. Your small little effort might just be significantly important to someone. Make this world a better place. Insyaallah.

Hi Khairul,
I've been wanting to contact and ask you more about the BSLC crossover to OCS. You said there was a Cadet Conversion Course, right? How long is the course and what was taught there?
