Nico Rindu
i’m not a fan of Malay Songs. But i do listen to a few of them. And to those of 1st GTS, i’m sure all of us know the song Rindu. It has been the theme song for i guess all of EY. And i know the lyrics by heart. Seriously, when i was the PL and VUL, after the camp fire, we would cry so badly when singing this song. I’m sure most of us have alot of negative things to say during our recruit years but then when it comes to this i really dunno what to say. But one thing for sure, i’ve learned alot from 1st GTS. Making me the person i am today. it thought me that Good decisions come from experience, and experience comes from bad decisions.
thought me how to stand up and fight for what i believe is right, it thought me that as a patrol and unit in whole as a team everything is possible. It thought me that making bad decisions will eventually cause the patrol/unit to suffer. And as a Leader your the first to be executed.
I’ve made decisions that are pathetic and stupid of me when i was a PL. Especially when i was a PL in EY. Well no use regretting and all, but i surely learned from them. The best part was i had a fight with my Patrol Second. And also one of my Patrol Members.
Of how irresponsible i was when i left my Patrol Second in charge of everything. But i guess both of us learned alot out from it. And now we are very very close.
Well, although it has been years since i held a Bamboo or a Parang, but if they was a chance i would really like to do it all over again.
