It comes to an end!
3 and a half weeks in ETI comes to an end!
Engineer life is kinda tough and it sorta demands alot from a person physically. Especially when it comes to running back from the white house to company line with full SBO and engineer gear on.
My life as CSM was tough if not a complete pain in the ass. I found it to be a tough job with alot of responsibility to be had yet alot of things to learn. In my course as CSM i realised who are the people who understand the position and who are those that don’t. Those that don’t needless to say are assholes and god bless you when you get the chance to take the role...
Now that life in Nee Soon comes to an end. The greatest challenge is distance in Gedong...20 mins from the gate, 20 mins from the road...and a good hour back home. Thats not going to be easy... a trying time it will be...
Oh and to all you guys and gals...Merry Christmas (although late...) and Happy New Year in advance!

Sunday, December 12, 2010When WIll My Life Begin?
Because I have none...
Being in the army is like being locked in the tower like Rapunzel.
Life is pretty repetitive and you wake up early and do the same thing over and over again. You look out the gates and you wonder about all your friends beyond the camp. Having fun and living a life.
Being in the engineers is not easy and the regimentation is insane. As a cadet we’re already treated so bad it feels like we’re recruits again.
One day in March...it’ll all be worth it...It’ll ALL BE WORTH IT!
Oh and Happy Birthday Lance!

Tuesday, December 07, 2010Back to work...
So I'm going to be posted Engineers tomorrow and i'll probably be spending another 2-3 months till I'm passed out as a specialist. I'm sad that i'm probably going to miss my out on my caroling this year.
It kinda sucks to be left in camp while all my choir friends and others are out having fun...sigh..such is the life of an NS man...
Pity...

Wednesday, December 01, 2010End Of...Course
Well the foundation term is almost over. Tomorrow is our last day as junior cadets and no matter where we are posted we are moving on.
I personally pray that I don't get ASLC or Guards or Infantry of any sort...I want to be a medic or a signaller. I really want to be not because I want to slack or shit like that but because I REALLY want to be.
I'll be having leave on friday thru tuesday so I guess I can sort thru the shit in my life in this time...
The 28km march last night was long and ardous but I pulled through as well as the rest of my fellow cadets. Everyone's packing their stuff and getting ready for tomorrow whereby when the posting is released they'd grab their stuff and either bring their things to the new coy office or they'll walk out the gate to their new units...
Nee Soon camp or stagmount please!
