I finally installed the Blogger app on my phone so now I can post updates. Thank God for smartphones with data plans.
So I finally went for NS. The orientation camp was 3 weeks and I loved it. Camp is regimented they said and it was but we pretty much got used to it. Unlike most countries we did not receive any military training, the closest we came was to go through some obstacles. Think climbing ropes and crawling under barbed wire.
The next phase is community service, most people were sent to ulu (remote) schools to be teachers, some will work in hospitals, stuff like that. I was posted to a secondary school to teach computer science. God help the students. Just kidding. I'm some how looking forward to it. I've never really taught before so it's going to be interesting, also and opportunity to develop myself.
All through te service year I've been blessed to have the NCCF. They're a non-denominational fellowship of corps members (yeah that's what we are called). Joining them gives this whole thing meaning. I remember being very reluctant to go for service, now I see it an an opportunity to give back a bit to my country.
A lot has happened since I last posted and in the future I'll share some of these things but for now, let those that hold on the God, hold on tightly, the King is coming back, oh very soon.
