I acquired a fever yesterday morning, but didn't want to report sick. I was on standby duty yesterday as well, and reporting sick meant lokking for a replacement. With all the strain my platoon was sill going through, of too much work and too few people, had I reported sick my platoon will join me in the sick bay soon after. So I held on...
And got the scare of my life when I was activated to respond to a bomb threat. I was doubly worried because it was my first activation and I was ill. Thankfully it was a false alarm, and the flowing adrenalin over-powered the mild fever.
Life good when there's a sense of fulfillment, even during the busiest of times. Right now I'm busy and I'm sick, but I feel good because I'm doing worthwhile work, playing my part in making Singapore safe and secure.
