Received a sms this evening. It was an invite to Melvin's place for a gathering for our NJOC batch. Am very glad and thankful that I am still kept within the circle despite having retired from RSN. They have supported me thru my period of illness when they found out about it too! =)
Had learnt many things from them, and also from my fellow officers onboard 88 and 93. Being the youngest, i absorbed quite a fair bit of good stuff from everyone of them.... and then modified it to my style. =P Which means i'm not original per se, but i guess everyone have to start somewhere. And i was lucky enough to have them around.
In any case, if any of you guys read this: My sincere and humble thanks to fellow officers of the 23rd NJOC (if my memory serves me correctly), 88 and 93. More so on 93, the years i have served onboard as AO and NO with a bunch of excellent officers who not only inspired me then, but still lingers till now. If i still have chance of sailing with them again, i will have jumped at the opportunity.
Unfortuately, all things have to come to an end. Where people part and fate ends. Where the wonderful times and experiences; the laughter; the bonding and friendship are etched into memory.
Fortuately, they are such wonderful people that we still keep in touch. Or rather, they still keep me informed of activities whenever possible as i guess i wont be able to go TNB Wardroom for makan or any officer makan liao. =)
Thanks once again everyone*.
*Too many names to name liao ... hahahaha ... i still very lazy =P
