Dang man...it was 16 days ago that I logged in here to type stuff..
Been either too busy, or too tired...dang...

Anyway.. The past 16 days was rather fun..lets recap shall we? yes yes...we shall...
We had M203/LAW live firing...we agree the M203 is more fun than the LAW. Why? cause only 4 lucky people got to fire the live LAW..the rest of us fired the sub-calibre... Anyway, back to the M203..it was like the movies..Aim, squeeze..you hear thing 'thunk' sound and you see the grenade flyin across the sky...then you see the explosion before you hear the resounding "BOOOMMM!!!!" hell yeah!!! Then we learnt rapelling...but DAMN IT!! For all the 3 days we were supposed to go rapell, it rained!! talk about unlucky....but the best part is that we got to stone mostly in the bunk.. we had obstacle training. Full uniform and equipment. We were like..hey 2km run..that's pretty good..it's only 500m more than the usual 1.5km...BULLCRAP!! it was more like a 2km run THEN the 1.5km....SHAGGED!!!.. Yeah..that's bout it...

And now the current week..lets see...I did guard duty this week..talk bout helluva boring and tiring. Walked up and down, played with the dog and almost killed the dumb assed cat...
learnt 'sig.' this week..yeah..Oh yeah...3KM SOC...which is the 3km run + the 1.5km SOC..but HEH HEH HEH..i only the the run in clean fatigues..cause the day they did the SOC..i was doing guard duty..hee hee hee...Oh yeah..we jumped off a 3m tower into the pool in our full uniform..it was like..it's not so high...up the tower...it's not so high...at the edge...hey..this looks a bit weird...and when they tap you for your turn to go and you step off...it's DAMN IT"S HIGH!!!!
(Note: If any of you intend to do this too...don't eat too much the day before and take a crap before doing it)
Soon we got the 5m drop and the 5m drop in equipment.
Oh yeah...we got a viral fever running around camp...People are dropping one by one. Mostly from my platoon. And damn it...I didn't get it when I wanted(we got sent home)..I got it on the day I came home...
And the best part of the week...besides getting to book out on friday...we learnt basic survival skills...how to test plants that can be eaten. And we learnt how to kill/skin/remove innards from frogs. Kill and remove innards from eels...and Kill/Skin/remove innards from a damn big iguana.
Didja guys know that the iguana fats when heated becomes oil that when rubbed onto wounds, the wounds won't leave a scar? hahahaha...

Yeah...that's about it...

Sick with a fever and cough...Lim Qi Wei..I bloody told you to shut your mouth when you coughed..but NNNOOO!!!!!
