Heyya. Long time no update. But now in blogging mood..My internet at home hasnt been working!! arrr you know how annoying?! soo i am in the library updating and facebooking but i cant use msn... soo how to chat? this is costing me $0.03 a min... nothing is free anymore!! hahaha
soo whats been happening? This mth has been quite happenning. hahaha two field camps, two 10km runs and 2 buffet lunches!! hahaha

okay soo first the field camps, last wk and this wk.. 4days 3 nights, infantry style! the first one was okay.. we learnt section fire movement and yeaa it was quite fun being the sec commander and shouting the commands..... but it was damn tiring.. doing so many fire movements man... damn shack... like doing soc five times in a row hahaa. the low morale bit was at night sleeping on soggy wetish ground... really makes your morale low... but yea surivied it. this wk finished GrandSlam at Tekong. it was actually one of my worst performing field camp... the navigation exercise during the first day i got really painful tummy pains after the second checkpoint and throughout the day i continue to walk with the pain... soo i couldnt really perform and nagivate.... soo i was useless to the team but more of a pain coz they were looking after me.. and we were peer appraised at the end.. sure come in last... arrr had the tummy pains all the way through the field camp. sigh.. not fun. the second day i slept under the sun during the day when we could rest and hahahaha i got a fever so i fall out from the day activies... they excuse me from the "punishing session" in the night which i felt guilty coz i didnt take part with them.. and they also let me sleep with the commanders in the tunnel/big army truck where i didnt have to do "guard duty" and hahaha had a good sleep!! but the second day i took part in the fire movements.. not that tough but man i stuffed up when i was SC...we were contacted left.. okay army talk..it isnt good to talk about it but anyways i was busy loaded a full mag and i forgot to give the FCO but told my section to advance...okay you guys might not understand but i ask me about it and i will tell u... hahahaha it wasnt as shack as the other day soo it was good. but it also was a wet damp field camp and thats not fun.. ohh and we had a 4km route march on the last day. wasnt as bad as last field camp's one for use but it was still painful and i really dont know how i am going to survive the 28km at the end of the course!!!!!! 4 is tiring already... times that by 7.. wow.

10km runs!!!! okay soo i joined up for 10km runs with some friends from my unit. that was before i knew i was going to be promoted to SISPEC. hahahaha wow the first run on the first wk of OCT was RUN FOR HOPE. a charity event for cancer reserch.. at east coast.. that was fun! i ran slowly and didnt stop once soo was constant all the way..felt really fun..but my legs and feet hurt so much the next day morning for the 5bx run haha some pics i stole off -
