As I am writting this, nearly of the coy is slackering in the training shed at 100m range. We already finished our zeroing and all but still waiting for the snap shot practices.
THing is, it's raining like bloody cats and dogs. Firing has stopped and god knows when the firing will commence. Must wait for the raint to stop first I guessed. =) My shooting has been ok so far but shots a tat too high. Most probably my barrel movement. Never mind bout that, later on can rectify it. As for now going to slack and perhaps, sleeeeeeep!
Came back to coy line at 12.30 am and sleeping at 1am. wowowowowo! I have to wake up again at 4 am for sahur but guess what, hahhaha platoon 1 didnt go, all sleeping. Can't take it, too tired and sleepy to even eat or drink man. oh well, continue sleeping =)

30/60 my friend isn't for the fasting personnel. hahahahaha Take it from me, I am way soooooooooo dehydrated after running around like a bloody monkey. None the less, I survived!!!
Anyway after that in the afternoon, had BCCT. LOL Funny thing was, I didn't train =P Since I had martial arts background. THe instructor wanted to brief some of us more about the CCI course. And honestly I am considering of becoming a Close Combat Instructor. =) see how ah.
THe only problem is I can't go SISPEC and thus if I can't get into CCI, LOL chiong sua as a rifle man for the remainding of my NS term!!!!
Man if that happen, life my friend will get even suckier. However if I do get it, hey it is a 8-5 job, and training stay in is nice. Washing machine, free time after 6 pm, book out friday night!! What more can i ask for?!?! hahaha maybe more ;)
Ok lights out already and tomorrow is range, Better sleep now. GOod night!

Today is a really tiring day. Morning had strength training and followed by IFC about camouflage. hahahaha that was fun ah!!! Though we all got tekan =( but then again, what's new eh ;P
Sweated like a mad dog. LOL swamp thing to be exact. PC and my friends said I look like it with my camo cream and vegetations on. Why of all things swamp thing?? I have nooooooo Idea =D. I think I did ok for it, just that I forgot my lower half of my body. hahahaha so that part, not concealed.
And one big ass problem is removing the camo off your face once you're done with it. PAIN IN THE ARSE.
Good night!

Going to have BCCT soon. Unfortunately strength training already took most of the life force out of me. Man I am so shagged!! and I heard, BCCT will be damn shiong =) Teng teng teng!!. Oh wel , at least I got karate background, brown belt =P and I won numerous medals and trophies for SP!! Sensei Seng and Shihan ALvin has taught me well. Or so I think LOL
Just hope I can cope with it. Hahahaha I miss my SPKC training. One day must go back to dojo and see them train. Then I can wassup wassup here and there =)
(after BCCT)
Ok BCCT isnt that bad. LOL and since i had martial art background, i am considering going for CCI course. hmmmmm The guy said, my batch got selection and Joe is considering joing it too. He has Tae Kwan Do background. hahaha to me, PTI or this looks interesting but still too early to say. I see how as time goes by.
As for now, good night, damn shagged!

Today had IPPT. Yesterday Sgt Wee told me, if I got silver for IPPT, he will treat me. And guessed what? According to my calculation, I got a silver. MUahahahahaha So technically I should be getting 1 free food, 1 free drink and 1 free ice cream from the canteen. 1 roti john allegely very nice =) However I got to admit. Damn shagged now. Thirsty too. Bah cant wait!! hahahahaha .
As much as I hate to admit. I am hanging on by a small rope with regards to fasting. Water, blame it on all organism to be highly dependent on H2O. =P Going to sleep soon. EVerybody is eating. hahaha oh yeah, morale is high again. EVen after kena tekan. =) lol
good night!

Wwho say a bad start must end with a bad end =P Ok got to admit, things were pretty crappy in the beginning. However hey! it turned out A O K =) Sergeant Wee is a good man. I can see that. Only thing is, I guess he just want some standard from us. What can I say? He deserved it. Coming from a unit, life there isnt easy as I was told.
Man tomorrow is IPPT, lol gonna try for a silver. Emphasize on "try". =P I be fasting so it be hard to do the 2.4km run. Hard but not impossible. lol Imagine the thirst Im going to feel tomorrow. Sahara-like =)
Ok i should sleeo now. Lights out already. GOod night to all.

Today was the start of BMT. So far so good but but our performance dropped. Why? I dont know man, Budi said something about we all having our days, good and bad. Maybe he is right. I kinda agree myself. However what to do? In the army, its mostly a group effort so yeah, whole coy or platoon will get screwed.
Recruit morale is always important as I always say! LOl but this is the army people. It don't really bother me yet. It is like back then in my ol NCC days. I wont say Im toughen for this kind of living but I manage to pull through.
Shal continue this later. Tired and lights out, Night.

Now Cat 1 so route march is postponed =P Wohooo!!! hahaha still hoping Cat 1 will last longer. It is only 8.25 am but stomach already got air!! Must tahan ah. Tomorrow morning after IMT, book out!! 10.45 am fast craft timing ;)
Must pack everything by tonight. Looking forward to it. Maybe go out at night and chill with the gang. Can't wait to get out! =)
........

Lol yes. Time flies in Tekong now. Why? hahaha I lost count of the days. I can do it but too lazy to actually back track and count =P so sue me
But yeah, been nearly 4 weeks in PTP and next week, BMT starts. OOOOOOOOooo.... =) God knows how it gonnbe be like!? A lot of my friends said its fun and i should treasure it and stuff.. hahaha we shall see man.
Only time will tell. Oh yeah now is the fasting month. Life in Tekong just got harder. The fact that you can practiclaly sweat from doing nothing shows it all. You lose alot of fluid in your body, ALOT OF IT.
Hydration is of main importatnt but what to do eh? As the army says it, "suck thumb" which means, too bad you cant do anything. hahahaha. Today I did strength training and gym training. Damn shaggged!!!!! Lol other than that, i practice my m16 technical handling. Basic stuff. Quite ok. Oh well, lights out alraedy, night!

Soon in about an hours and 30 mins time, i have to go back to pasir ris to book in into Tekong. hehehe :D Havent been updating my blog with real blogs but just summarised stuff of what happend in camp. hahaha and since i already took an oath, some stuff, I cant simply anyhow say ah. wait i get charged and go DB! yeah, some things are allegedly classified and restricted. lol
Life in the army, what can i say, soo far soo good.. its no walk in the park neither its a course through hell. balanced man which i liked. though one thing is for sure, once you book out and step inside the house, I feel reluctant to actually step out of my house to go out. hahahaha yes yes I have no life so sue me =P
Haiya besides, I have like no idea what to do man. Furthermore, sometimes, I get bubbled by people who wanted to meet up with me. So end up, never really meet up =P oh well, I think i lost some weight but i have no weighing scale to verify =( But can see my 6 pacs coming out and my body is like more kong. soo I think im losing slightly. hahaha ok.i guess this is all for now for Mantis Man.

First day of booking in after confinement. SO far so good ah. Though you can feel the pace catching up. It could be me or just me. hahahaha
Had our First Aid test today. hahaha the Evacuation part was abit screwed. This is because I did not had any hands on tries. So I got scolded by the Sergeant when I had to do the Pistol Drag, which honestly i find is one of the most stupidest and slowest form of evacuation ever =P haha. but man after that, dont think I can forget how to do it anymore =)
I am thick skin one, so no worries.. Though I hate being scolded at, I been through all of these crap before and I can handle it! Tomorrow is weapon presentation OOOoooOOo... hahaha Lol. Be getting my M16 rifle and yeah my alleged wife. I dont even have a gf and now got a wife. hahaha
Now its crazy time, my 2 bunk mates guitar soloist playing guitar. But soon it be lights out, soooo good night!
