Congrats Sgt Yewyi for his ORD, how i wish i was in his position. As for the rest, u guys are now Sgts or officers-to-be, but i still a f*cking coporal! Life sucks so far for me. I wan to cry, i wan to die (extract from our bmt song which realli suits me lol)...

Posted to recce to suffer all the shit. Appointed as a Armskote Spec, need to account for all the weapons and shit.. how lucky... Walking 60km+ in FBO... 4d3n no proper sleep... had useless teammates which ends me up being the camel carrying all the heaviest load.. F*CK !!!!

Killed an unagi and frog last friday, live one... with all the blood, mucus and even cum spilling out.. damn gross.. wads worse i gotta cook and eat em!! damn damn damn.. so not enjoying my life right now..

Even outside camp, things have not been going well for me... I lost my 11B, my SAF riding permit, my ashworth wallet!! those stupid cards alone could easily sum up a huge fraction of my coporal pay.. Ended my 3 year relationship with her on the phone.. while i was juz on my way back to camp from outfield.. shagged, tired, cried.. but i could not sleep.. why is it like this...

Think im in a state of near depression now, no drive to excel, no will to push.. juz being a camel for the team.. This coming week is my final week of my phase 1 training, will be going outfield for 4d3n again... Training shedule includes dog evasion, prisoner-of-war treatment, jungle combat survival training... how the fuck am i supposed to go thru that, no food given, had to run away from enemy and bitches, POW abuse lasting 12 hours... f*ck... Is the jungle hat worth the trouble and shit i had to endure?? More so i had dropped the idea of any best trainee.. no recognition of at least a silver bayonet..

haix... my army life.. no my life is screwed..my lower spine hurts from the 940A set i carry along with my full pack.. thots of downgrading myself keep ringing in my head, no energy to continue this f*ck shit le.. im triple killed...

Civilian Hell

2006-10-27T01:38:00.000-07:00

The time that i've dreaded has finally come... I've ORDed... like for 11 days now... If army was hell, then i've sunk to greater depths of hell now...

Everyday have to listen to my mom nag (and i'm 23... how embarrassing...)... No job, no school, no prospect, no girlfriend... Everything also nag... Sigh... I was gonna say "You young people must study hard and make good," but hey, you guys are already way beyond where i am... who am i to dish out advices eh?

Spent the past week hiding in bed till 12 noon everyday... look around the web for jobs and schools... finally decided maybe australia for hospitality management... but should make some money first before going... what can i get for a short term job? only data entry and table waiting jobs lor... and i hate being couped up in an office... so i'm gonna be a waiter somewhere... might as well get some experience in the hospitality industry eh? Comforting words to myself just because i can't get any better jobs... haha... But think i'm gonna enjoy it lah... am a bit wary of the red and white uniform though... :P vain sia...

So now instead of staying home listening to more nagging, or worse, my mom's karaoke singing, i've hijacked my sister's laptop and i'm in town now surfing in a mcdonald's... It's pretty cool... watching people, eavesdropping on their random banter, pigging out on hot fudge sundae (which i have gotta stop cos i'm seriously looking more like jabba hutt by the day!) and just relax...

Was gonna re-type everything in grammatically accurate language but realized 2 years in NS had taken away the ability to do so... i can't even remember the proper usage of a semi colon and a hyphen... I can't even write a sentence without using [...] at the end of it... sigh...

All right... i obviously have nothing intellectual to talk about...

People making me nervous also... Stop staring at my screen! Didn't your mama tell you it's rude!? Tsk...

OK... guys... take care... be safe... and er... You young people must study hard and make good ah... :P

Red

12 weeks on...

2006-08-25T09:20:00.000-07:00

OK, my maiden post...

Just some updates on, what else, ME! Of course... it's ALWAYS about me! Oh yeah... and the tiny, unimportant bit regarding the whereabouts of The Section... but really, who cares about them eh? Back to me; focus... Heh...

ORD's drawing near and it's freaking me out. After endless Att B, your CMI Sgt here has lost his hopeless ability to do even 6 miserable chin-ups... OC's pretty mad... haha... But yeah... i have like 6 weeks to pass it OR ELSE........... I'm clearing leave now, going back only for major events like 24km, POP, enlistment first week of confinement... other than that it's leave leave leave... oh yeah, and the saturday IPPTs... after ORD... hmmm... will let you know where i'm waiting tables at... hehe...

OK... now's the bit about the section...
XJ, Hang, Jerm and Khai- Still surviving OCS i hope, haven't really heard from you guys... I know XiangJing and YiHang's doing ok cos i just ran into Bryan last week... Jeremy and Khai?
Peter, Shaun, Faiez, Gary, YongChuan- still at the same places as after BMT. How's the last 10 weeks or so been for you guys?
Caleb and MingHao- Signals (happy only, these 2... haha)
WeiChong- Arty (have fun cleaning the big guns... in the beginning anyway... heh)
YX- Armor Recce (er... good luck... haha... no lah... bike training is damn fun one lah... but er... good luck... haha)

Alright... that's all the crap i can come up with tonight... Till the next time i'm feel crappy again, Take care...
