12 days to POP!

finally, get to book out again after 12 days in camp... and another 12 days to POP!... yeah~ for the past 2 weeks we had 16km route march, range and hand grenade live throw...

in the 16km march, after marching 8km at the rest point for dinner, it rained and we had quite a long rest there... but becos of that by the time we end, it's already almost 2330h... then my both feet got a big patch of blister for the next few days and had to fall out for most of the leg activites like running... but i decided not to report sick as i may not be able to go for the range if i do so...

then for the range on sat and sun... it's quite fun to shoot the live round, but we spend most of the time waiting... luckily we can bring some magazine there to read... but i didnt do too well for the test... only 18 out of 32...

for the hand grenade throw this is a live time experience... we get to throw a fake one first which will only make a sound before throwing the real one... the real one at first i thought the sound will be very loud cos i can hear it quite loud from far, but luckily it's no as loud as i tot... the the most sweat thing is it rained when the detail b4 me was throwing... then have to wait for abt 15mins b4 the rain stop... thank god everything went well and there's no blind... if not got to waste 30mins...

so basically most of our major events are over, except SOC which was cancelled on thurs becos of the rain and IPPT, which i havent managed to pass yet... then next wk we'll have our GP rehearsal... the real day is coming real soon too...

book out day... after SIT test

yeah... today is book out day... once again we're out of tekong... but the sad thing is next week becos of range we can't book out... so we'll be in camp for 12 days until 25 nov.. sianz...

this week we had the sit test... actually i dont think i do well in the test, cos most of the mission i didnt do much thing... but i dont want to be commander, so not so bad... the route march before each day is already like killing us...

enjoyed the 4 days break... book in for 40 hours then book out again...

one of the shortest book in time... we book in on thurs night after the 4 days break, then book out again on saturday afternoon... quite weird...

so this week we only had 1 1/2 day in camp, which we had IPPT test and SOC practice. i still fail the IPPT, then SOC there's still some obstacles which i still afraid to try... sianz... i think that would be my worse thing in BMT...

but the past 4 days was fun... i managed to go back SP for 2 days on Mon and Wed and went for the choir prac.. they preparing the concert on 23 Nov... but most of the songs i dunno how to sing... then also meet up with some crusaders... i also went for dim sum lunch on tue with my parents and NS friends for dinner...

50 days to Christmas!

Yeah... it's 50 days to Christmas! getting nearer and nearer... orchard road has already been decorated and soon... it will be christmas day... hohoho...
