Every week, life accelerates. One can tell by the amount of admin time we get. Or the lack of it =D And for myself, I'm getting as accident prone as I was a year back...

The last week was signals' package at Choa Chu Kang. Quite interesting, it took me 18 plus years to find out that "Wilco" actually stands for "will comply" -_-"' But for pro term, I would like to go to signals as my vocation cos it has the stuff which I'm most adapt for. Thank God once again for giving me a good memory. Using a combination of remembering-which-part-of-the-page-the-word-appeared and mnemonics, I could remember all the appointment titles after a few glances phew. Man I miss Bio, the ETC, ATP, DNA and all that stuff =Pp (or not =D)

Anyway... Section Field Camp is next week, so its back to Tekong with all our stuff all the way from Jurong West. 5 days of chiong-ing through various plantations, getting threatened by giant spiders and centipedes and spiders. 5 days of camo cream mixed with sweat, 5 days of guarding our equipment to make sure no instructor steals them.

Oh did I mention the giant spiders? =D

Anyway if I don't update next week you'll know that I lost some piece of equipment or NDed my rifle or something (CHOY!)

But on the other hand, the people in OCS are the most motivated bunch of people I've ever met. Some of them spend every free moment mugging for the next test (I, on the other hand, get as much sleep as possible), sharpening their entrenching tools, doing their maps and etc. Of course, we get a fair share of eating whatever snacks we bring to camp too haha...

But all in all, if Singapore ever goes to war, I'd much rather go and fight with these people than those in BMT (though my Section 2 was pretty good too). And then again, the most ideal scenario is not for Singapore to go to war at all.

Also this week, went for the Local Medicine Scholarship (SAF) talk at Nee Soon Camp, where ChuaH and Nelson are usually at. VERY attractive scholarship, everything paid for and etc. Only problem is that after that you have a 6 year bond to fufill. They showed a very vivid video of all the death and destruction in Indonesia after the tsunami in full gory detail, complete with maggots and all. Very gross, but quite inspiring too. Dunno lei, its not like this week I'll have much time to make decisions.

Anyway meanwhile, as we reach the halfway mark of Service Term, social life has now been for me reduced to occasionally remenicising with Mursjid (who lives one floor below me) about VJ or AHS days, either in camp, or during lunch after book out haha.... But happily, youth group is still every alternate week so that's something to look forward to!

Ok its book in time now gotta go. Regards all!
