No. 200

This is the 200th entry for this log of mine. It had been slightly more than 2 years since I started to keep a blog in 2007.

200 posts in 2 years is not a lot for a blog.

200 posts in 2 years.

100 posts in a year.

8 posts in a month.

2 posts per week.

2 posts per week is about right, for someone serving the nation in a combat unit, where weekdays are spent inside the camp.

2 posts per week give you 1 post on Saturdays and 1 more on Sunday.

1 'book out' message and 1 'book in' message. To let the world know, that this army boy is still around.

I would thought that the rate would increase after I leave the army and return to the strange world of the civilian. Guess I was wrong.

School started to, once again, become a big part of your life.

Assignments, exams and sleepless nights are back to replace 'extras', 'knock-it-down' and 'gentlemanss'.

And gone also are the book-ins and book-outs, the sickening feeling of knowing that you got to endure another week in camp. Yet, with every book-ins and book-outs, you know that you are 1 week closer to your ORD date.

When people say that you get dumber in the army, I disagree with them.

The army taught me about the theory of relativity, time really is relative. Just ask those who are still serving.

I had been reading those old posts again, and realized that I tend to put more thoughts into words in the past. Now, maybe I am just too lazy, or maybe some things are best left unsaid.

今年二十四。

人生能有几个二十四年。

1/4 of my life had passed, it's time to make good use of the rest.
