Sleepless nites ( due to the lack of time), insect bites all over my body ( due to being out field for 4 days out of 5 this week) and bruises all over( due to leopard crawling all over and only able to high kneel instead of sitting for rest). Well, that basically summarises outfield trip in BRAVO. Oh ya, did i mention the fact that it rained almost every day? =) But above all, it was a great experience. Not saying i would love it but it is smth we shld really experience it.(once in a lifetime is enough le, no need more. Altho i still have 3 more to go -_________-" )
Bought an Ipod Classic 160GB yesterday ---> one big hole in my pocket le. Didn know it could be so pain man, all my other stuff that cost few hundreds are often sponsored by my parents =x But since i bought it le, there shldn't be any thinking back about how "painful" it was but on the other hand, i shld enjoy it =) Still dun really get the functions well like how to add photos and videos. And besides its irritating cause videos need to be in MPEG4 format before it can be synchronised into Ipod. troublesome sia.
Kah hwee just sms-ed me telling me he lost his rifle sling, haha. Actually rifle sling is kinda a small thing but since they are recruits in tekong and rifle sling is smth the SAF provides, his sergeants are sure to make a big fuss about it and give him some extras. haha, but at least now he will be more mindful of his stuff. A small loss to prevent a big one (eg. rifle, bayonet, controlled eq.), worth =D. Grant booking in yesterday due to the fact that his coy has matador live firing today so last nite was no sam-ing or whatsoever ---> lack of manpower =x Going for forbidden kingdom before dinner with granto later.
This week is gonna be long for me since i won't be booking out for the weekend cause my coy will be having some live firing too this weekend, ratz. But look on the bright side man, i will be enjoying an enjoyable wed to sunday holiday next week ^^. Ok, its time to go prepare insect repellents before i return with 40 bites on both my palms again =x
Cya dudes.
You can do it Zack . . .Yea, i'm on fire now!

After a whole week of ups and downs, i'm finally back to home sweet home again. First it was tuesday when Staff Seah told us we were confined due to the negligence of our platoon to take care of our weapon, then followed the cancelling of SOC to the changing of it becoming to be postpone instead of cancel. If that wasn't enuff, we were told again on friday that we will be confine till 3 p.m. in the afternoon for today as we reported late for the practice of warcry which later turn out to be if we did well for today's warcry we wouldn't be confined. Last but not least altho not being confined, we still only manage to leave camp at 2.30 which is half an hour earlier than if we were confine. Bottomline is that life is full of uncertainties, live with it =)
Anyway, this very very sad thing happened to one of my company trainee this week or shld i say since last week. Erm, there was this trainee from platoon 1 i think by the name of titus who's father happened to meet up with an accident. So he was send to hospital for emergency rescue when the verdict came out to be that his father was brain dead. What aggrevates this more was that the father was the sole bread winner of the family with his 4 other siblings still studying and his mother as a housewife. I seriously feel very sad for him as life being in SISPEC Bravo is already very stressful and in addition to this stressful period in his life, he must endure the pain of losing an utmost loved one. Then another thing if u guys didn't realise here is that he and his family members need to make a very tough decision of whether to terminate his father's life support system or not as brain dead is not dead yet but as good as dead. So this tough decision was made few days ago when various tests have shown that his father is not responding at all, and so sadly... his life support system was terminated. Well... i know i'm not in a position to say anything or to say that i can understand how he feels but i seriously felt very very sad when i heard this news. I just hope he can carry on well with his life and make his father proud. I bet he is watching over him up there somewhere and he wouldn't want his son to be sad over his moving on of life. Cheer up and work hard Titus =)
Hmm, so after few weeks of not watching any movies, i'm back to movie craze again i guess. Still awaiting the release of forbidden kingdom which is on 18th april. So just went to watch a random movie called "definitely, maybe". that show was.... wow... haha... i am speechless. How do i put it, it is touching and... nice... I teared abit at the last part due to some reasons... but it was really nice. Just nice. Go and watch it if u guys have the time, money well spent. But plz do not be like me, lol. 4 guys going for a romantic comedy in a cinema full of couples. LOL, we are not gays. =x
This whole week is a thinking week, random thoughts every now and then. But i keep forgetting about them after sometime, i wonder if it is the reluctance of myself to remember them or is it my memory failing me but... oh well.
Oh ya, kah hwee went in to quebac coy and nigel went into jaguar coy. I hope they are adapting well to it altho nigel just sms-ed me yesterday telling me he missed the outside life. Its kinda crazy because the real training hasn't started and he has only been admitted 1 day =x But anyway, they'll do fine... i know it, i just do =D
I dunno why but i just like to blog every once in a while. Its just my medium of expressing myself which i can't really do it to ppl now. I dunno how to explain it but yea... my very own medium which will not have no time for me i guess... Kinda random.
Ok, nth much to say le. Just hope everyone is doing fine and getting on well with their lives... stay healthy and happy. Reflections of the week: Cherish whatever u have while they last. oh and ya, imeem.com is kinda spoiled and cranky now so i can't really change blogsong. ratz. Cya.
He kept the book because it was the only thing he had left with her,I kept the letter because it was the only thing i had left with you...

Time just fly super fast when u are enjoying yourself, its already 4.45pm and i'm gonna book in at 9.30pm... sian la...
2nd week of SISPEC BRAVO life and the training is already getting quite tough. As what our OC says, the training will only get progressively tougher as the weeks pass, i guess there is still alot to endure if i wanna graduate from BSLC. And in addition, I'M IN THE MOST XIONG COMPANY IN SISPEC! Beat that man, haiz. From one of the slackiest in BMTC to the toughest in SISPEC, big leap. i'll live thru it! tgt with grant and wz, we are going to be GUARDS! Ready to Strike!!! =)
But as the saying goes, when the going gets tough, the tough goes shopping =P So yesterday the band of army botaks and nigel, kh, ty, hs, sy & meng went to celebrate meng's b day. Ate at timah market before going back to sam's. Enjoyed the company with these ppl, always. Kh and nigel going for BMT at tekong soon too so we kinda chat abit bout it. 2 more botaks joining the band of army botaks soon. yay, next time more ppl to 'cherish' the weekends tgt. And btw just to let u all know, all the NSF really cherish their weekends cause its all hard earned. If u really wanna know, for me i strive to pass my IPPT, TSR(training safety regulation) test, learn 4 weapons in a day, all demolition in another without falling asleep in any lectures just to be able to not stay back for collective training( means stay back saturday). so much just for a day of freedom out in the civilian world, can any non-NSF understand this? So if one army boy spends his time with u, it kinda shows the importance u ppl are to him.
Enuff of the army stuff le, lets enjoy some civilian stuff b4 i book in. Have been hooked on to a nice game - FF7 Crisis Core( PSP ). This game really tested the PSP graphics sia. SUPER NICE! The gameplay is quite unique too, very different from the rest of the final fantasy games. Those with PSP are highly recommended to try it. And sidetrack abit, I'M JEALOUS OF ZACK AND CLOUD IN THE STORY! Zack has like 2 girls kinda in love deeply with him la - Cissnei & Aerith, while Cloud has his sweetheart Tifa to secretly admire him. zzz @!^#%^&$%%!@$%^@ so good, if only such girls existed for me =x k la k la, i come back to reality k?
Hmm, next week is another tough week le and a saturday book out week so its gonna be quite sian bah. Just hope i can survive thru it happily, not being too depressed. I'm gonna miss kh for around 2 weeks bah - he is gonna stay in for confinement in BMTC. Hope things are fine for him both here and there. As a strong individual, i'm sure he will be able to pass out from BMTC soon with a breeze and then we can all go to the same units and have fun in army tgt.
With Pride We Lead - SISPEC =D
Cya!
I have u to be with, everything will be easy...
Cissnei is hard-to-getAerith is sweet and innocentTifa is full of lifeIf all 3 combine into 1... WOOTS =)
