My mother called me 笨笨 in front of my grandparents. Four years of npcc life and what I got out of it? I was special head, of what? There was so little npcc stuff I took part in, mostly educational rather than action. (If you understand what that means) Everyone who knew I was once there would say "You NPCC right? Should know this.. should know that.." Should? My grandparents laugh and echoed the words. I can't help but teared because the thought of it was silly, and I did admit whatever my mother had said. Well, I always did ask myself, does my NPCC life ends here? Do I wait for the 3 years to expire? Am I going to run away, or maybe, just maybe someday, I'll be back and the cadets would find me a stranger there. My ah gong comforted me and said, “好啦好啦，不笨不笨。”
My mother also named me mountain tortise. She's very good with words. Sometimes hurtful but I took them as a joke. Mountain tortise because I have not been to Henderson Waves before and she's taking me there today. Corrections, she had already taken me there. Anyway, I'm really glad today because my brother was present with us again after his two weeks of army at HTA. Sometimes I just wonder how lonely I would be if I didn't have a brother. Ah well, stop being a sad Chelsea. Smile, put a smile on your face, maybe it's easier to talk to people. hah..
