I'm back again!!

oh my, its has been 3 weeks since i update my blog.. let me do a gd one to keep u guys and gers update of what i had done on the past 3 weeks..

1 Week
--------

I had my fieldcamp near to the cemetery, it was not that bad after all to sleep near to it. The camp was a tired one cause almost everyday we do the same things repeatedly, charging, covering, shooting, hiding, running and proning... Everytime when hardship come, i will look upon the 4 days of long break as my motivation and push myself through it.. haha..

2 & 3 Week
------------

Oh my it was the confinement week, that very first week itself i believe i have walk for close to almost 50km of my live on feet. The entire week was fill with topographic practical lesson, all i do was walk & walk, sleep wake up and walk.. The sky was "kind", my first 2 navigation test at mandai rain heavily.. The entire week, i had to bear with wet boot and smelly socks to walk around.. During that week, i had also attain my IPPT SILVER!! Yeah.. Unbelieveable, my 2.4km i ran in at 1104min.. that was 30sec faster than my previous timing.. Going for Gold if possible..
On Sunday, i taken my navigation test on Puala Tekong, my team was damn suay, got 2 checkpoint that can't even be located ard that area.. So we went back to get to midpoint to get 2 set of new checkpoint to proceed on.. Overall, my team pass the whole test and we are also the last team to report back to the campfor both day and night navigation.. But lot of miracle do happened on that wonderful sunday..

On Monday, we started off with our individual assessment of being a section commander.. Leading a 6 men team to excuate missions.. things when on quite well.. nothing much happen only during my second and last mission where i got a small and deep cut by one of the thorny tree vein on my left hand when i prone to take cover.. blood keep flowing out from it my whole hand was cover with my blood and so do my weapon, but nothing was serious.. =) Lucky, it wasn't near to the main artery on my hand, or else things/thinks will be otherwise cause it is only abt 5cm from it.. I was send back to First Aid point for medical treatment.. then back to our camp area.. over there, my the other not assess platoon mates was fighting it out with a damn big, cunning, well-trained wild boar.. first time seen such a big one.. Thank to the wild boar we don't have to sleep in the field and we move to the shelter for our rest...

After we came back from camp, we experience our first night off.. nothing much to do actually cause i live super far away so i join up with those whose not going home for a KFC dinner, follow by a game at the game arcade.. and a resupply at the NTUC Fairprice.. and then back to camp.
Friday, i had a real shiok experience of running with real bullet firing ard u.. At first i was damn scare and all precautious was taken by my team to make sure everyone understand what to do.. But once we step onto the ground zero with our weapon ready to fire, we forgot all about it when it all started and all we did was just running and covering fire for each other as thought we are fighting with real enemies infront of us.. The night one, was a bit scary for me.. cause i am the group 2 IC, when i am running to the next bound.. i could see bullet flying past on my both left and right of me.. i was stun and shock for a few sec.. once i get to my cover.. i continue on for that moment i focus on nothing else but on the objective infront.. the shooting goes on till quite late and we had a sleepless night till the next day.. which is our bkout day, saturday..

Yesterday, when for the movie "The Guardian" at PS it was a super nice movie to watch.. recommend by me.. worth the ticket and the time to catch this movie... had our dinner at the suski ramen at cineleisure.. yummy dinner and we headed home for another show on tv, behind enemy line.. half way through the show i fall asleep.. haha..

Next week going to be a much less hectic week cause we be celebrating our graduation party at the chervon on Thurs night then can book out le.. going to be another long weekend to recharge and to enjoy... except this coming week got lot of doors to kick open and lot of soc/playground to clear.. update my blog again next week... this update was a real long entry so far...
See ya.. =)
