I'll just keep it to myself in the sun//

It's the last week of course at OETI and it really has been quite the experience thus far. As is customary, I've acquainted myself with another lot of people through which I would not have known existed without the aid of conscription.

I guess it's in the nature of leadership training that cordiality is maintained throughout. All of us essentially want to pass out from the course with as little trouble as possible and not risk losing out from an almost certain promotion. Who wouldn't want that extra "zing" every tenth of each month?

It's nothing to boast about, knowing that where I am now is really a cheap substitute for somewhere else "garang". All I can feel now, however, is gratitude. It's not much and it will not compare. But it's enough to get me through and sometimes, getting through is the only thing that matters.

And if it's anything, I pray that it'll be the start of the many things in my life that I finally make right.

Insyaallah.
