nasty surprise
our section training officially started this week. sleeping time has been cut alot, since we often have to wake up very early to prep for moving out. and when we reach back camp at night, we have to dismount and take down the stuff, and account for them, only to mount them back up the vehicle again the next day. its a tiring, tedious and boring process, but its rly sian before n after an outfield training. by then time we hit our bunks, take off our camo cream, go take a shower, its almost bed time le. RAHHH hates outfield training ): ok. as
sheenie says, im just whining for the sake of whining HAHA. RAHHHHH.
the good thing is, we r not staying outfield just yet. well. but a nasty surprise popped up this week and suddenly, i can say goodbye to a nice bunk and hello to the forest + camo cream (which i HATE totally zomg). ppl r complaining how they r getting pimples thanks to the camo cream HAHA.
at the end of the week, we prepped for flotation and we got to use new vehicles - the ones that were paraded from NDP! woahh haha. the vehicle is like totally new, with dust+mud free seats and control panels. hehhs. and the equipment were all still wrapped in plastic bags. so COOL (:
we had to drive our vehicles in the water. it seemed quite scary at first, cos i was afraid that the vehicle would just suddenly break down in the middle of the water and we will have to activate the rescue vehicles. hehhs. but it turned out to be quite alrite. we got to ram on the accelerator to the max in the water to overcome the water resistance. hehs. if u r on top of the vehicle, u can rly feel the water pressure pressing agst the sides of the walls of the vehicle. :o on the whole, it was a rly good experience (:
