I Juz got promoted to senior CLT. hahaa. What does that mean? It means that i can still continue to contribute to my air unit in cat. high. It would not have made a dofference if i wasn't promoted, i will still help them anyway. But looking back on my very short one year stint as a CLT, there is much i have achieved and much i have yet to do.
I still rmb, i entered and came out of my 47th clt course with much vigour and purpose to help my unit. Alas, it was not to be, situation took control with JC life to cope and Guitar Club. J1 life was crazy. I took 4 subs all the way to promos, which meant loads of time has to be spent on hmwk n studies juz to pass. It was tough trying to adjust to JC life. On top of that, there was guitar twice every week and when syf came ard, it inceased to 3 times a week. Still,i had to go back to HQ often to help establise the aeromodelling club. Then only did i have time to contribute back to my unit. sigh~ After the aeromodelling club was setup, i cldnt find time to go back anymore, whats more, their training schedules were not taylored for the JC ppl. e.g thurs 1-5pm.??? how to go? im in the middle of class u noe? So other than getting to fly the plane twice n lots of 'saigang' preparing the club, nothing was left for us to do. It was simply out of our way.
I went back as and when i could and helped more with the back stage planning n discussions with Qin Xue, who was doing most of the ground work. What we discussed, he would try it out etc. Everytime i go back, i carry myself with a great sense of pride that i could come back to my alma mater to groom n give a part of myself to the cadets. Up to today, I wish i could be with them more often and help Qin Xue and Mr Goh guide them and give to them what NCC has given me. The discipline, confidence, care for my ppl etc. With Darren and a few more who just passed out, congrats! And hope they can continue what i have not begun. Only then will i have a peace of mind. =)Lastly, how can i forget all the support my CO, Mr Jeffery Goh and Ms Wong(Mrs Tay) has given me? They supported me all the way in trying to startup line flying, part of aeromodelling here in CHS. Financial and moral backup which was so graciously given helped in my own experential learning to grow as a person. At least i can say for now, i have given smthg to my unit. Hope the aeromodelling course was successful for the Part Bs. =) Thank you Sir and Mdm. I will continue to help out with my heart n soul everytime i can make it back.

Features an abstract- floral digital artwork drawn by me in photoshop. This layout is appropriate for all genders. The grandiose design is laid freely on a simple canvas and they complement each other pretty well. The sudden gradient change is applied to create one contrasting element. I created a 3D effect on the vines and they seem to jut out of the yellow canvas.
Why the name? The design, as you can see, is abstract and it gives a double-vision feel, therefore, Esophoria, a tendency to squint your eyes inward to create a double vision.
