tribute to capt ho

today is the singapore bay run.. or rather army half marathon. me, gl, zh, sc chose to skip it and slack at marina instead.

it's a sad day.. an officer frm ocs passed away after completing his 21km.. his heart just stopped. i deeply share my heartfelt condolences to his friends and family.. though i don't know him. it's just that after yida and more importantly after nick's demise that i will think abt my loved one before trying anything too risky. just imagine.. as a professional military officer.. if your son dies at war you will feel more consoled than compared to dying after a run. young lad.. jus 25.. i bet he just gotten his degree and now to his instructor tour.. i mean how unjust is this.. a man dies even when he is serving his life with purpose and meaning? what about those useless mats in the battalion? sigh. that's why.. pia so hard for wad.. 21km no joke u noe.

army has taught us to push beyond our limits.. but even that has limits. guess that's life huh? some people born with disabilities but some perfectly fine but leave this world in the freakiest way. God bless, Captain Ho, wish you the best in your next lease of life.
