ok. today is the day. the day of the POP of NCO batch 05/06. finally. the time has arrived. the kids i saw entering the unit when i was an NCO has passed out. It was a POP filled with joys and laughter. and tears to go. it was the day which i realise that the little kids i saw when they were sec 1, to being troublesome sec 2, confidence-lacking sec 3 to NCOs. and today i saw, the end product : 26 outstanding individuals in their own ways. i realise how much everyone of them has grown. especially over the past year. so much so much. some to the extend that i am so proud of who they have become.
this batch of NCOs are really amazing in a sense. it was one which allows me to look at them in a different light every time i see them. randy, ken tat, jeffrey proved to be very enthusistic despite their very initial turnouts. diqiang, though suddenly turned very enthu for the last 6mth, i hope he had some wonderful memories to go along in his npcc life. donglin and jasmine which i thought did a spendid job being the chairperson despite initially overlook the part on task delegation. Jun Hong and Eileen did their job well, as both squad taking NCOs and camp coord. I realise that they are very down to earth ppl who will excel in their fields of responsiblity despite not venturing out to volunteer. Jonanthan is one NCO whom i really view in different light. He matured so much in his NCO-hood. i'm really proud of him for who he is today. same goes for jiamin. though quiet and blur looking, i thought she did a good job in her roles in the unit. Not forgetting her hardskills. Hui Jie is another NPCC enthu since sec 1. the deserving BUC of his batch alongside with Jasmine. In melvin, i see shades of myself taking my squad in a light hearted, concern yet firm manner in my pt of view. Jeng Khit's in the mould of khai wan in his own way. i realise that being a sec 1 squad NCO's the right choice for him. Ai Jia, being 18 is always looks responsible to me. Runling is also another very responsible NCO, ssetting herself as a good example to all. And there is angeline, whom i always thought looks very good in long hair. That cannot-sit- still ballet girl in my pt of view. hope she had some fruitful days in NPCC. yang sheng was motivating in his own rights and ways. Jerene, though ironice that she always falls out, become a medic in his own rights. Jane was one very unique NCO, showing her love for NPCC in her own way. Joyce, my "fav." NCO though fears millipede, command respect from her cadets in her way. zeng wei was fierce and responsible with bits of BHB. and the list goes on for nicky, kenneth, anyu, xuan ying, tuck jun, joo san... i hope i din miss out anyone.
I am nt very sure my past yr with them was a fruitful one. Best as i could, i tried to allow everyone to achieve something in their years in NPCC. yet i think as of today, the many many things that they did over the years, ultimately achieve 1 single goal that i wish my juniors will achieve in time. besides passing down the things they learned, influencing the minds of many young cchsm npcc cadets, it is the strong bonds they had when they passed out. the 4 yrs of friendship forged, in harsh conditions thru tekan session and all. today, i see friends of times passing out together, drilling for the last time. which very much reminds me of the days i experience the same with mine. except for the crying scenario. Though they might not remember me in time to come, i do hope the values and culture we instill in them will always be in them. and with that, i hope it will be useful in their life for a very long time.
with that, i wish them all the best for what futures lie ahead for them.

3 cheers to all of you all. =)
