I am going to be a Father

How many atimes we've heard ourselves anticipating the next chapter / milestone / phase in life... I am reaching mine =)

Fatherhood awaits me in less than 24 hours.

Though I feel un-nerved and calm about the pending arrival of my lil princess, there is a stiring deep inside me akin to the calm before a storm. Its not those kinda dreadful, moody sensation but a built-up of excitement, anticipation yet with a tinge of fear

As the man of the house, I have so decided for the safety of both my wife and daughter to undergo caesarian instead of natural birth. To lead without a doubt so my wife would have confidence to deliver... The decision looked firm and straight forward, but I can vouch it wasnt. I have to weigh the pros / cons, risk manage, seek advice and experience... before I can make the judgement.

I think the worst part for me now is that I will have to see my wife go under the knife, weaken by the op and endure pain for my girl's arrival. My vow was to love and protect her... yet now for the arrival of our bundle of joy, I have to place her under this situation. It hurts me =(

Part and parcel we may say, but whenever I hear Amber giggle to her moving tummy and playing "Tom the Cat" to Jing Xuan; Everythings worth it =)

A monumental event is gonna happen.

My daughter is going to be born and we are going to be Parents

Love You, Yan Lin
Love You, Jing Xuan

With my Life.

回憶过去

10 months

Took up command on 18 Jan 10, 0800hrs... I knew its gonna be a roller coaster ride (mostly with deadly plunges) and verified, it was more like a bungee trip!

My team and I went through the norms:
- FORMING
3 PC + 3 PS + 1 CSM we accessed obstacles and challenges whilst knowing individual personalities / characteristics and capabilities. Teams were constructed to specialize on taskings while "clans" formed within the Company with various individuals finding their respective zone of comfort.

- STORMING
Getting into new teams, friction and conflict are bound to arise... how can I forget the classic dark ages of my command when I question my capability for orders

- NORMING
Everyone "graduated" into masters of their trade... I witnessed Anarchy to a Company that was able to take up anything / anytime / anywhere. Even up till now, I am confident that nothing is impossible... except changing the CO

NDP 2010 is over and mission accomplished. The pain long forgotten, the foot-prints left behind with the memories forever~ Fragments relapse of events come to my head every now and then, but when ever I hear this particular chorus segment so favoured by William Wee... everything just floats back

We come from many places... to complete the mission. I declare mission accomplish and I will cherish the memories
