yup, back from the SISPEC course at last,
well comparing to my previous army buddies that went to OCS,
i am considered quite lucky really.

the pace of the course is quite slow initially,
until they started to go into overdrive and thats where everything goes topsy-turvy,
my knee has been giving me problems for the past day or two,
seriously, its nothing like ive felt before, the sharp pain near the joints almost unbearable at times,
when i was in bmtc, i nvr got excused before nor got injured,
but this thing is really bothering me, walking now almost becomes a torture,
now i am at a stand-still whether to report it or just bear until it goes away, hopefully,
because its rather easy for you to get out of course when ure in SISPEC,
rather afraid they would label me unfit for the course because i really want to advance.

oh god, the misery of pain, would you pls take it away before it drains me,
now i have 4 days to really evaluate the situation, since they gave us a break due to the new year,
and i have to really pray hard that my right knee gets better.

everyday nothing to talk about except about army,
no choice actually, because as they say, suck thumb lor,
this particular word, army, is controlling us in every way,
its either you cope with it or end up chao keng then can slack.

for me, i have to say i prefer the first choice,
might as well make full use of the 2 years then wasting it away,
its like wasting 2 years of your life, which is kinda precious to be wasted away,
so i am now posted to SISPEC, which would probably mean i would end up as a sergeant,
dont think you got rank means you are a so called "big-fuck" okay,
rank = responsibility + more shite, everything not your fault also kena fuck,
except if you are posted to tekong and handle a bunch of chao recruits,
then it would be more relaxing in terms that there are a few sergeants to share the burden,
if not lan-lan, "favourite word for people", get posted to unit, become section commander,
your man do stupid thing, they will find you first, then prepare to get fuck,
cannot book out, your face like shit, then after that fuck your man back,
its like a revolving process seriously, one chain of fucking one another, except in form of a treadmill,
with a gay like structure of doggy-styled men together, you get the idea.

p.s - sorry for the vulgarities and improper speech, have to train, if not people would take advantage.

enough about the bad side of it,
if you look at another perspective, army life is not that bad,
its kind of similar to working life really, politics are there, bosses are equivalent to higher ranked people,
minus the variety of choices that you can make obviously,
but the most important thing is the people around you and your surroundings,
one crucial thing is yourself, how you set your mentality towards everything,
if all falls into place nicely, army life would be much smoother,
i hope that would happen for me during this phase of my life,
okay, i think thats it about army life.

could say one thing though, i find sheesha to be relaxing,
its like a pastime when i go catch up with friends now,
singapore is beginning to get boring, i really got to find new things to do.

hmm..i changed my mind yet again, im sticking to blogspot, lol.
on a sidenote...

had to say it, POP loh!
after a long wait, the day has finally arrived,
11th December 2007, Platoon 2, Whiskey Coy,
no more a chao recruit, proud to say i am a private now.

was kind of engulfed in emotions during that day,
it was raining alright, but somehow, it was more of a blessing,
cause when we started the parade it stops out of a sudden,
talk about divine intervention huh, was really glad the parade happened,
more glad when my parents put on the jockey cap on me.

BMT has been a great experience, i feel that character wise i have grown,
the mental strain and physical stress that labors on me each passing day,
all that i have endured has reap benefits, passed my IPPT and rather proud that i never did fall out before,
could see that more importantly, i have come to realize more than ever that you could be more of who you are.

kinda sad that i have to move on to a new place now,
friendships that are built, now we have to say goodbye to one another,
but then, only to camp and during trainings,
cant help reminiscing the shit that we had gone through together,
they are the people that did gave me that extra edge to do more,
will i ever meet people like them in my new camp?
well, lets just leave it for the future hey.

hopefully, i would go into command school and earn my rank,
all i have to do now is not to make a waste out of this 2 years,
better live and breathe like a soldier now that i am one,
one more thing is to take care of my body, i think i quite battered it with the strains of everyday,
as i say, the mind is limitless but the body has its limitations,
now that i have my 2 weeks, its just the remedy that it needs.
