Problems less than a month ago

Okay, this goes out to my squad. Just 2 weeks ago, I was damn pissed with you guys (team taurus). When I told you guys to train, you guys lazed around. Some of you said that you needed more help since there was not enough manpower and pool of efficient com trainers to train the cadets. When I invited a bunch of Gemini ex-ncos to help, black-faces were thrown at me, saying that i did not seek the training nco's consent, when i actually did. Joel, i didn't mean to bypass you, really. I just felt that Gemini's want to improve sji-sjab was justified, even though they may have other ways different from us, the ways and methods which we detest. They thought they did a good job, but in our perspective, they did not, the previous batches did better. Likewise, we may be thinking that we are doing a great job, but who knows, in Scorpio's view, we suck! Gemini did a better job. If I put myself into their shoes, I'll be lost and confused, thinking: wad did we do wrong, why aren't we invited. Sjisjabbers, if you are reading this, whether you believed it or not, it was shawn chang( the last person i would hear from regarding the issue of Gemini) who indirectly and subconsciously stimulated this thinking in me. Nevertheless, AGI members don't worry, I'll still try my best to ensure that the superority of Taurus's reign would surpass that of Gemini.

Coming back to the topic, you guys(Taurus) seemed unenthusiastic and unbothered about the competition. When NCO helpers were called for, no one came, other than the one who was banned. Yong Shen, even though you wanted to compete, you weren't making the effort to come for com training, instead you went lan. Joel, when I asked you the other day if you guys would ever start preparing, both Zhi Yang and you rebuked by "like i care!" in Chinese. Even though we managed to sort things out eventually, this attitude cannot and should not carry on for nat.com. Matthias and Shawn, despite being reminded several times by me to put in your last bit of effort, you guys did not come for com training. I understand that we have our own busy schedules and social life, but can't we put in our best for our last year in SJI, and as Josephians. You guys mean a lot, and if you had come down to do your best, we would have achieved much greater results, and possibly a clean sweep for all 3 teams. A one-man show by myself can't do much, but if we actually combine our efforts, nothing is impossible. Thats why we are called a squad and not separate individuals. I hope that we can do our best as a united front at nat.com

I do not mean to look down on or insult anybody. From what Dr(I dunno his name), an ex-csm said, our standard is dropping. I just hope that we will be the squad that restores sji-sjab's past glory which had been lost through the years.
