some simple flashbacks

well, another week has passed for me... 10 more weeks to end of course....
did a little research about my job scope... as in the working hours, doesn't sound good to me at all
heres how it goes, you work a 2 day duty, followed by 1 day standby (8-5) basis and get 1 day off and book in the following morning.
sounds good uh? but then i'll be missing lotsa weekends, damn.

the whole week in camp was kinda slack, eat,sleep,smoke was all we did... except for the ET runs which he did, followed by fireman lift after the run. learned a new weapon, GPMG, like everyone else in army. fucking heavy, and the best part is... it gets prone to IA. wtf man.
back in bunk, was kinda missing the days in tekong, my section mates in SISPEC, zhengyi, weilong, daniel, yongjin... my sect comd derek, marcus, joe... esp my bruddas in BMT... the system testers aka water testers... hahaha
kinda funny when i was back in tekong, was ranting everyday about this and that, now to think back... kinda miss those days, section battle drills, fighting patrol, topo, Kg Unum, fastcraft... well thats human nature =but seriously speaking, to get this new vocation has its pros and cons. To me, i get more time off to practise on my DJing and music which i would love to. but the job is too boring for me in the sense that, i would rather go to a combat unit in the army then join the airforce. in other words, chiong sua. kinda contradicting uh? i wish i was in artillery unit, although its siong, and stay in, but its a guranteed 5-day week, and all my mates are there, Clifton, Guowei, GX, Chang... but its kinda too late now anyway lol

anyway its xmas eve today, met up with brandon and carson earlier on, walked around tm, slack alittle... we'll be meeting up later at 107. midnight mass. the same thing every year, but after that, haven got a clue where we'll be going to have our drinks for the night...

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL. All the best.

long awaited

well haven been updating for the past 2 weeks, finally had the time to update hehe

finally passed out from BSLC! finally got out from Bravo Coy already... but to think back, times back there were really fun...
got my new posting too, been posted to Changi Airbase as a FDS spec, which means Field Defense Squadron, or you can call it Fuckin Deep Shit. infact its just a RP spec. kinda slack job, sit in the guardroom do nothing, but fuckin boring.
spend the weekend at KBOX, drank a little and caught the lastest show in my life, 4.35am Blade Trinity. not bad show, but the story abit zzzz... the fighting was good nevertheless...

currently i'm on course now, a 12 week course, which on the 10th week i'll get my 3SG rank then followed by a 2 week on job training. Its kinda strict over at the course, reminds me of the time when i was a recruit, which infact is like now! we have to standardise everything like back in BMT days, we were treated like recruits. luckily there was ah chua and leonard over there to talk cock around with lol. good thing is its very near my house hehe. No SOC over at the airbase, but we have turn outs regularly... which i rather run SOC then have turnouts!

did a little shopping over the weekend, got myself a new pair of nike sneakers. now that i'm in changi airbase and would be doing shift work in the near future, i think a Gameboy Advanced SP is gonna be an essential in my life already! went to check out the price at tampines, 155 no game. wtf man?
went over to roxy too and place my order for Jump the Next Train, hope it really comes soon...
met up with kendrick and liwei later, had a lot of catching up with each other since i haven seen kendrick since may... all of us were still the same, same frequency haha...

the final 5

its been a hard to pass week, having done my topo exercise Wanderer on monday. shitty detail, fuckin IC wanted to find 1 bloody checkpoint when we were given the go-ahead to skip the checkpoint, made us waste 6 friggin hours looking for 1 checkpoint. ahhhh how it pains me... but anyway, 5 more days and i'll fuck off BSLC

seriously, i really hate the warrant officers in my company, esp my OC. he's a plain fucker, a sloth. 1WO so what? big fuck? can treat ur men with no respect and say things which are sarcastic and disrespectful to people? no wonder you're still a 1WO when you're hair is all white already? retire and die PLEASE! i dun mind tough & siong training, but please, at least give us our basic welfare and don't burn my weekends man, plan the schedule properly at least. we don't mind having 1 less long weekend and get this weekend off instead of confined and another thing, please treat people who are really sick and down with respect, instead of asking them to rest, you ask them to go do sai kang, pluck grass and stuff? and still threaten to confine us if we dont pluck properly? run out of constructive things to do? might as well let us stay at the field and see what the rest of the guys are doing and watch how they clear the COC. i was seriously not feeling well that day, and i have already twisted my wrist, and they are telling me to carry heavy loads. What the Fuck man!? i know being an attB is kind of like chaokeng but i wasn't, my wrist was seriously in pain and i cant even do a single pull up now.

anyway, just booked out today, suppose to book in later in the night. OH PLEASE, which idiot in this world would book in later? with much common sense drilled in me as a thinking soldier, i went to see the doctor to get an MC, i was sick anyway and not feeling well at all, had stomachache (must be the ice blended vanilla) and diarrohea,(is this how its spelt?) so i'll be staying at home the whole night to rest my friggin stomach...

took a little walk around the TM and Century Square before that, saw this brown jacket at FOX, didnt want to buy it in the first place but damn! was tempted so i bought it for 39 bucks, looks good anyway haha... went around, and now i have so many additional things which i wanna buy! i think the top of my list now is a Gameboy Advance SP, saw alot of games for it, Shining Force, FF I, II, Tactics, Sword of Mana (i think its another version for Secret of Mana)... saw it at century square selling for 155 but with no game, what the fuck man? my fren got it at 170 with 1 game included, but no idea where he got it, must ask. guess i'll get a gameboy for myself next week... cos its payday!!!! i think its worth my money cos i'll play it alot in camp and while travelling on the train,...

so many things to buy, yet so little money... anyway heres a wish list for my Xmas, just write for fun... hoping Santa will read my blog and buy me my stuff hehehe
