Today did not feel like a typical day at all. In fact, it was the most fun and exciting day i ever had in S1 branch. It was not the usual routine at all, with most of the pple not arnd. I myself wasn't around in the morning till around 10, rushing back from SAFSA OPEN only to realise that my email account just crashed, for the 1st time in history. The floodgates have opened, and mail poured into my account after 2 days of inactivity. To add to the misery, Uncle Hong send me a nice little(in bytes not really) game.Was wandering around the office for a gd half an hour, waiting for the problem to get fixed.

The most non typical day today that happened was that we made a new branch movement chart. For the benefit of those who don't noe what that is, its a chart which monitors whether you're in camp or outside and why. Jeff, Yap and i took pride in doing the new chart, and when it was done, i looked at it with great satisfaction and a sense of achievement. After being in S1 branch for almost 1 and a half months, i finally made a difference, aesthetically speaking. Not implying that my branch looks like ur storeroom or sumthing like that, but well, something has been changed. How about a small little step for army transformation for you? :)

Change is imperative in an ever changing environment
