Dawns in Daegu - D-476

Another night waiting to see its dawn in Daegu is here today.

I am spending the last two hours of my D-476 here in the cyber lunge jotting down the story of my day.

Well, I could say I kind of waited for this moment. There are few reasons. Although writing diary is not my favourite pastime when I am here at the cyber lounge as there are more major things to do like reading facebook messages and reading all the football articles, but today I came off to write my diary before anything. This roots from my thought that even when I am reading articles or chatting with friends on facebook, I wouldn't feel so good. Well that too, stems from the day I had today. What a day today.

Well, it was a normal day where I report to office and all but just from what I could remember are the moments when I was at the CASIC doing my duty for two hours, something that I did not expect arose. It was about 11:30, so my duty was about to be over. With half an hour down to my lunch hours, Sergeant major Kim Keunwoo came to check the list that I need to hold on to when I am on the duty. As soon as he read the list he started shouting and screaming that all people at the bunker could hear us. People came to watch us. I was scolded for not keeping proper record of those who entered. He was shouting and screaming telling me to go and get the profile of those people who just left. He was screaming all along. I didn't know what to do. I first called my office. Lieutenant-colonel Kang answered the phone. As he answered, I asked him for number that could direct me to that spot's number. How lucky I was. He was so nice guy to tell me all these. You know, working with him in the same office makes me to respect and admire him. That sometimes when I speak a word with my fellow mates, I do think of him before talking.

I first called the main entrance and the north entrance and they couldn't know about the profile of those people who entered. Luckily, when I called the main entrance, the soldier there told me that I could try calling the North Service Center to check out their profile and how lucky am I that I was able to find out their profile. As the Sergeant Major hung up the phone, he grunted for a while and left for lunch break. I was so lucky as I'd thought I might get punishment or what. I recently wrote statements for not calling the office back when I was getting back from my outing with Jaeyeon, thus I was kind of in a mood that I am not being resilinet these days but you know what's the best thing I learned from today. One thing is that when I was being scolded, I didn't grumble about him scolding me but more about me learning from the mistake. I was also scolded this morning when I reported for office cleaning about some security stuff. It concerns me more about me learning from those mistakes not about being furious about the person who scolded me. Yeah, I guess that attitude to be able to stay calm and keep myself upright through the day is the one very important thing I learned about myself today. I've become much stronger. I have changed my attitude. I am being learning not grumbling. That is a very good sign.

Well, other things don't actually matter a lot to me as long as I stay right. Right to my belief. That's all that matters. I thank God for another big lesson today and always will be learning. Hope there are times that I am happy with my lessons so I can be satisfied at times too.

Thank Lord for another day.

Amen
