new camp (:
my first few days in my new armour camp (: quite unfortunately, im not a tank commander but an armour infantry instead ): means chiongsua life hasnt ended for me. as aforementioned, the camp is extremely ULU and the trip there is reeeeally long. after entering the gates of the camp, there is still a long walk before i can reach my bunk. zai4 ulu bu guo le.
armour seems quite okk at the moment, but we were promised late nights of tank cleaning later into our course. accomodation wise. the bunk is extremely small. like 1/2 the size of a sispec bunk, but accomodating the same no. of ppl. theres little walking space within the bunk ): theres also 1 toilet shared by 2 platoons so its back to the life of rushing for toilets again. the pillows are rly skimpy unlike the pillows in sispec. the room is super stuffy cos of a lack of fans and poor positioning of windows. and we live rite opp the female bunk so we have to close windows and doors b4 changing. oh yahh. my bunk is all the way on the 5th floor so i have to climb up and down everydayy.
in my bunk, i practically knw evry1 alr. like half of them are frm my BMT section. and half of the remainder r frm my SISPEC platoon. (: nice to see evryone again. on to the food over in armour camp. the food is tons better than sispec. seriously. my appetite has increased after the 1st 2 meals there alr :D the emart is also better stocked and looks more like a proper mart (:
and of cos, the highlight of unit camps is FRIDAY bookouts (: it rly feels good to have 2 FULL days to enjoyy out of camp.
heres an outline of the activities for the 1st 2 days:
for our 1st day, we had lots of administrative briefings. then we started our course proper on the 2nd day. it was a 3km run in the morning, which sorta warmed up my muscles after the long period of inactivity. then we began our 9hour worth of lectures on signals. OMG? cramping evry single thing insidee. it was the most intellectual activity i had engaged in ever since i entered army. and the bad thing is on mon, there will be a theory test. if i fail that ill get a weekend confinement. ohh. and i am suay enough to get rostered guard duty on the 1st weekend guard duty of the course, which is this coming sat ): boohoo. b4 we booked out on fri, we all received our black berets. cool rite. black's the nicest colour IMO ;)
took a look @ the course programme. looks fairly ok ba. except that twds the end of the course we will be going for an exercise in taiwan in the camp where the 2 NSFs had died earlier this yr. like omgg. and they told us not to worry -_-" and
sheenie just pointed out tt ill prolly be flying off on sept 11 :o bad omens aside, i hope ill get to meet
hebe :D
anw wo huai nian de dint manage to rebound in charts todayy, and continued crashing ): all the votes r channeled to gu ji gu ji. zhong guo hua managed to continue staying as 1st and wu yue tian made it to top 10. top 10 is looking good tdy (: and wang zi got into charts too :D hehhs. looking fwd to charts nxt week :D
