Three weeks of BMT over...

Wah... so fast it's going to be May already. It's has been 3 weeks since i started my army life... everyday's pace is fast... The first 2 weeks were hard to adapt... i had diarrhea on the 1st 4 days, then got cough, followed by flu and fever, the last few days before booking out... Quite xiong at first, 'cause few months never train liao... very weak... manage only a pass in IPPT CAT Test... My swimming sucks too... cannot swim standard 1 kick, 1 stroke, 1 breath... really kanasai... too bad lah... lazy to train either hehe... The sergeant was nice... Some are strict when training, but crazy when playing, the others not much emotions shown... We have to train to be both physically fit and combat fit... So for the combat fitness, we got to wear long uniforms, sometimes have to carry equipments while training... very heavy and tiring... every day sweat until like hell...

The third week for me is kind of relax... once i booked in the next day i report sick liao... hey wait... that's not 'chao geng'... 'cause i really cough until i couldn't sleep in the night so i really cannot carry on... so i have some 'rest' for 3 days... the rest is not rest in our room loh, we still have to go wherever the company is going for training and we're suppose to observe, no sleep... But after having our 'drowsy' medicine, sometimes, really cannot stay awake lah... kanna scolded a few times for that... It was really really damn boring to sit and watch... actually i only need a day rest then i can start training liao... but sigh... i sometimes don't quite understand the army way of doing things... after the inactive 3 days, i'm back into training... feeling eveready after 3 days of rest... i feeling great to be involved and active again... yes! i'm back... hope i won't get any 'attend b' next time... ok cannot reveil too much of NS stuffs, confidential man!...

3 weeks of army life... the daily routine is becoming more and more standard, but also more boring each day...however everytime i told myself that this is for my country, my family, i feel a rush of energy pushing me forward... yes i wanna be fit and combat ready! =)
