the pendulum times.

all these while, these 8 weeks, it may seems rather short, but the times when we were at outfield, the time tick-ing on my clock never fail to slow down…

Marching the 28km Graduation March is a big challenge, adding on the extra 4km from the previous BMT 24km route march. The first 12 km terrain was still ok, except for the remaining 16km, which was hell.

With extra load on the field pack & LBV, a rifle laying rest on my arms, adding on to the pain is my extra abbrasions on both my thighs and a small water bubble on my foot.

Yet, i still have to keep fighting on, pull myself, and walk finish this 28km.

Now, wheres’ the fighting spirit i used to motivate myself and fight on?

Anyway, got posted to ASLC ( Advanced Section Leader’s Course) with 3 ex-Hawk platoon mates, Bani, Ahmad & Dave, 30 Bravo platoon mates to Hotel company. Sigh

Time to check in this hotel? I doubt so, haha. Heard this is one of the shiong-est company in ASLC/SISPEC, and with this 13 weeks long journey to embark on, i’m afraid it will be 13 weeks of hell for us.

Hope things will go as it is, and we will go to Taiwan together during the last 3 weeks training as a platoon, as a section.

These 5 months in army taught me sth, ‘the friends you made jn army, will be the ones that will go all the way with you in life. ”

Well Well Well..

Finally, its the last week of our 8 weeks BSLC course. And the week after, if i got posted to ASLC ( Advanced Section Leader Course), well, happy, cos’ we would have a 10 day break before reporting. But kena posted to other units, sian, might not even have such a long break. :((

Thru these 8 weeks in BSLC, not only i’ve made quite a number of close and good friends, i also learnt one thing, that is the determination and fighting spirit within each individuality.

There’s a saying, “When there’s a will, there’s a way. ”

Always, don’t give up, no matter how hard and tough the training might seems, at the end of the day, its the amount of sweat and hardwork put in to produce the result, and the joy in overcoming it.

And because of this fighting spirit that goes berserk within us, we will realise that we can do things that, we normally couldn’t do and to unleash the inner spirit hiding inside.

I’m glad that i have came so far, and will keep fightin on, to the day i get my 3 stripe rank on my uniform, the 3rd Sergeant rank..

Friday 08th May

Friday was nightmare, when our bookout was so late that, i reached home nearly close to 11pm.

Straight away went for fetch my mum back from Gong Hui and then went out again to fetch W to binghuan’s early birthday party at Grand CV Somerset hotel next to Heeren.

Was hilarious, when we couldn’t find our way, and have to keep turning round and round to get to the actual place.

Anyway, reached home back at 4.30am and off to a deep sleep ..

Woke up pretty late around 1pm +, fetch mum to Woodlands Checkpoint for lunch, wow, i swear i ate quite alot unhealthy food that meal.

Happy Belated 19th Birthday girl. Hope all your wishes will come true.

Til then,

Thou its a long weekend for me, but i find the days are boring .

This whole weekend, merely did nothing but staying home and watching movies + games.

Oh, anyway Mum’s going to change a car soon. So we went to Kah Motors Showroom at Ubi on Saturday to see the prices and models.

Currently, dad’s considering between Honda Stream and Kia Magentis.

But then mum’s considering between Honda Civic, Mazda 3 and Toyota Altis.

How leh? There’s always an issue when comes to choosing a car, when our parents cannot decide well.
LOL.

In the end, its the kids that benefit. Cos no matter what car they buy, i still get to drive ;x
hehehehe.

Dad says he will wait for Wednesday 06/05 new car price listing + coe prices to be released then make a decision.

Anyway, next week book in will be hell. My week 7 of BSLC, 1 whole day navigation til midnight, followed by 3 days 2 night Field camp again (showdown of what we have learnt throughout the courses), then followed by last SOC rundown on Friday.

Sure next weekend book out, I’ll be much more slimmer , fitter cos’ i don’t eat combat rations ;x

Let this be done with and following week is POP lo.

Til Friday bookout,

P/S: rabbit, msg me to let me know how’ you are doing. Hope everything’s well with you. Msg me soon !
