The Last Book In

Sure bring back memories. Will we still stick together like we used to be after we pass out from BMT? The bond we have is really strong but how long will it last? It was really a pleasure getting to know everyone :) OCS? SCS? Unit? Should I sign on if I get into OCS?

Been eating alot after I booked out haha! Enjoying here but money dropping out from my mum's wallet LOL!

It's been a while since I last chatted with you. Headly have the chance to do so given that you always tht busy. It's really sad to see how stressed you are. Ran out of words to encourage and cheer u on. Book the book helps. Really hope to see you carrying the chain along wherever u go haha. Anyway all the best! Trust in the lord with all your heart :)

Gotta book in soon. Hope that there'll be good weather for the next few days. Rehearsal for the entire week. Just how tiring it can be? All I need is a cooling weather!

Last book in... FINALLY!!! Gotta prepare already!!! See ya :)

This Marks An End to My Life in BMTC!

Training to be soldier,
Fight for our land,
Once in a life,
Two years of our time.
Have you ever wonder?
Why must we serve?
Because we love our land,
And we want it to be free to be free ARGH!

Sick and tired of all the marching songs but wonder if i'll miss singing these songs in future. The past 2 months were the toughest moments I ever had. Everyone is saying just how fun life in BMT is and how much you will miss your time in BMT when you get posted to other units. Just how true it is. Maybe it is indeed true but the things I really cant bear to leave behind are my friends. Dont really like the trainings and programmes. Physically and mentally straining at times.

Just when I realized it, it has already come to my last week in BMTC. Will we continue to stick together after our posting? I can't answer that question haha. No programmes today!!! Boring.

Isn't there anyone who wana go out today?

Is This The Peak?

A tough week indeed. The day after my IPPT test, I had my 12KM road march and didnt even have the time to rest and went straight for arms drills and SOC test. Managed to clear all obstacles but I'm nt sure if my timing hits the requirement.

Didnt manage to obtain a gold for IPPT test :( Anyway is this really the peak of my physical fitness?

Lighter in the weekdays but heavier over the weekends haha! Been enjoying myself during the weekends :)

3 Hours of Rest

Agreed to meet up earlier to prepare Kenneth's birthday yesterday but everyone had something on at the last min except for Justin. Glad we managed to get something nice (I hope?) for him and I bought a beanie from Topman :)

Seems like everyone is obsessed with beanie. thanks to my influence hahahaa!

Buffet was great and had fun interacting with my section mates. Sadly Zibin had to leave half way as he had to replace Kenneth for guard duty. Such a great sacrifice haha! Sloppy movements as usual and we dragged the time all the way to 1145 and I missed my last train and bus, luckily Kenneth came to pick up back to aloha. Had bout 3 hrs of rest and left early in the morning to gym with nicholas. Dam shagged now but had a great dinner :) KFC!!!! Finger licking GOOD! Here comes my sore throat again.

Didnt manage to buy any clothes or jeans today but had a great time :)

I'm starting to doze off....

The Start of Physical Training Phase

SIT Test went off smoothly though I had to admit I didnt really have the chance and motivation to try and lead others into a solution LOL! Say Good Bye to OCS lol! 6 weeks had passed, 3 more to go. Had fun hanging around with my section mates haha! A group of interesting peers and not to mention my buddy, a hyper ventilator LOL!

A lot happened during this week or should I say every week. Trainings are getting tougher in terms of physical matters. Final IPPT Test will be held on next wed. Gold? Possible? My legs are aching!!!

Anyway just booked out ytd and had a stomach-filing lunch ant ananas cafe lol! Chicken rice and nasi lemak at just $3.80!!!! How cheap can it can haha! Cough got better right after I got home. Is the water in tekong the main cause of this?

Haven been using my HP for quite some time, no smses except from my mum haha! Siannnnnn

Time Flies

A few minutes more b4 I leave for NS. I would have leave my house by now if it's not for my buddy. It was really sweet of him. Offering a ride all the way to Pasir Ris, all I need is to go BP and wait for him. Really touched. Save my time and money :)

Just when I realised it, it's already the start of week 6. 3 more weeks to go. If you think 9 weeks is short, you're wrong. Imagine urself having programmes every single hour and that u hardly have the time to rest, would you still think that 9 weeks is short?

SIT Test tml!!! Cant help thinking about this. I'm not familiar with the combat stuffs yet, afterall it's just a few hours of "lecture"!!! MAN!!! God help me!!! This is a chance for everyone to show their leaderships as well as capabilities!!!

Right after SIT test, I'll be left with just IPPT and SOC. SOC was a great disappointment of course, I'm still weak!

It's sad to know that I gotta skip church again tmr. Pls pray for me, bro & sis in christ. Heard SIT test is more tiring!

MAN I gotta go alrdy! Time's running out!

Back From Field Camp

A relief indeed :) Came back from field camp last saturday. Though I supposed our field camp wasnt as tough as the 5th coy but it was definitely tough enough for me. Ever thought of not being able to bathe daily and eat normally like you used to do so daily? One major activity down and the next one will be our Situational Test on this coming sunday.

First IPPT test results:

Pull-ups - 12 (10 normal 2 underhand), 5 points
Shutter Run - 9.6 (5 points)
Sit-ups - 42 (5 points)
SBJ - 225 (3 points)
2.4km - 11.21 (3 points)

Total: 21 points, Silver

Second IPPT test results:

Pull-ups - 11 (Normal), 4 points
Shutter run - 10.38 (4 points)
Sit-ups - 40 (5 points)
SBJ - 225 (3 points)
2.4km - 10.21 (4 points)

Total: 20 points, Silver

Except for 2.4km run, I was quite disappointed with my results! No improvements at all, is field camp the main cause? Anyway praise the lord for such results :) Never expected myself to be able to hit a silver for IPPT.

Failed my SOC the next day after my IPPT. I guess my weekends might be burnt starting from next week!!! Sigh!!!!

Anyway another miracle was being able to attain MARKSMAN on my first attempt. Haha!

Gotta book in tmr, pray for me peeps! It's my situational test, another major part of my BMT and my cough is getting worse again.
