Dawns in Daegu - D-482

Hi. Another day in here.

Down to just about 18minutes before the platoon cleaning assembly and I am here at the cyber lounge typing out the story of my 18th January 2017, which would never happen again.

Yesterday, I was running out of time to type out a diary as I was rushing for the music show hosted at the Susung Artpia. I only remember that I had great time chatting with my junior Hyunwook during the journey. We talked about a lot of stuff and also although I slept for the first part of the show I had a great time.

I love those times where I get lonely I mean I have to be alone and have that moment to take a break and think. I remember it was in the year of 2014 when I had watched this musical hosted at my hometown. I was not in a very good condition as I had just got dumped out of school and came back to my hometown with dead face.

As I was watching that musical then, I remembered my memories when I was a performer. The times when I performed musical as a team. That passion and the memories. As the lights came through it made me cry then.

Yesterday, as the show was going on, looking at how Hyunwook was closing his eyes and feeling the show, that was when I realized I had such time like him before. I used to see and feel emotionally. Maybe I guess I am too overwhelmed by the atmosphere here to actually think about such. Although it could be because I wasn't watching a musical but I can't guarantee what could have happened even if I was watching one.

And the next day which is today is the day where I get the result of my application for Arc Troop. Arc troop is based in UAE so I get to be dispatched to UAE and serve Korean army in there for about 8months. It surely would be a great experience, so therefore I registered. After hours of clicking and refreshing, I saw the result came out at the Korean Army homepage. Unlike those other times where I would get my O-level results and all, I wasn't nervous. There was just so much to learn from my experience in here in Korean army. So was I not nervous. I saw the results clicked and realized my name wasn't there. I wasn't selected not even for reserves.

It wasn't tough accepting the truth. There was just so much for me to gain from me staying here and serving and they are not about me getting stuff but they are more like life skills that I really need to get through in my life. I am learning to deal with people. And I have goals that I really want to achieve during this 21months period. I am glad I am given such opportunity in here.

I love myself for accepting challenges that's to come. I do not mind what challenges come through because they have to come. I accept it take it and adopt it.

I am happy to be learning things that I wasn't used to.

Also played 8-aside football at the field today, although I am not totally satisfied with my play today I can say I had such a great time.

Thank Lord for the day given today and I am going to keep learning.

Thank Lord and Amen.
