A day at camp!

Well.. today went to camp a bit 'seh', becos' slept late yesterday.. got abt 4 hrs of sleep yesterday at home (despite I'm mounting 24 hrs and had a 14 hr duty!).. I went out with John immediately after I reached home and stuff mah..

Anyway, today at camp was more sai kang! Apparently last time, there were flower pots and flowers grown by my base RSM (he got abt close to a hundred pots of flowers and other stuff at my squadron's backyard, and he waters them every morning).. but I think becos of the recent outbreak of dengue, tat he decides to get rid at least 70% of them!.. so we as the standby shift today was appointed to clear the mess! So we are like carrying timber planks (which is so darn heavy.. I'm thinking tat each plank weighs close to 50 kg).. its tat heavy lah! and we've got like 10-15 of it to dispose off.. not mentioning tat there were bricks and flower pots for us to dispose as well.. Its like making a few long trips (manually mind u.. juz with a trolley) to a garbage bin near my squadron (but the distance frm my squadron to the garbage bin is like 1-2km, and not mentioning tat there were obstacles (such as uneven road and slopes) along the way, which makes the carrying more difficult!
I've carried the planks till the pt tat I think I've got a workout on my biceps as well as the other muscles in the hand.. think my muscles are gonna get cramped tml becos' of the lack of working it out.. I can feel the muscles are getting tighter after today.. man.. am I becoming more *ahem* muscluar? ha.. I certainly hope so! =)

Then its like after the sai-kang, we got rewarded by tat we've got a half-day off given by my flight sgt major (FSM) becos' of the Change of Command Parade thing.. I think I'm gonna get another 2 days off, but everything is not confirmed yet! so ya.. Inititally, I thought going out to catch a movie as well as also have lunch before coming home.. but after much considerations (yesterday when I was with John, I've spend abt $80.. so cannot spend much as this is only the beginning of the mth!), and ppl started not to make decision, I decided tat the next best thing is to get home and eat my Indonesian Economic Rice, which I'm glad I did lah! Cheap and good.. after eating, I slept for like 4 hrs (to compensate yesterday nite's lack of sleep).. then its internet until now, and now this blogpost..

Just went some Friendster surfing and I couldn't believe my eyes! Some ppl which I think tat no way they've entered OCS and been commissioned as an officer, actually did!! And those ppl which I've thot tat they will do well in NS, to be either a specialist (AKA 3SG) or an officer, actually becomes an OOT (Out Of Training), which means tat they will be as good as a soldier who can't do stuff, so they end up as admin clerk or sumthing!! Oh.. wat is this world coming too??

The bad news is ppl, I've got to bk in tonite at camp becos' I'm mounting duty tml.. so tat means I can't attend church! =(.. haiz..

But the good news is tat since there is a change in wkday and wkend P1, I've counted the days on my handphone calandar and found tat its quite favourable to me, in a sense tat when I'm on leave in December, I do not owe ppl P1's and stuff.. so tat means I can take leave in peace! ha.. =)

ok lah.. gtg and buy MacDonald's for dinner! Mum's not cooking! Oh.. btw, MacDonald's got some great deals with its coupons! See the coupons tat comes with the issue of 13 Oct 2005's Straits Times!
I think I'm gonna eat the 6 pc McNuggets set with a free Fillet-O-Fish burger tat comes free with it! Whooppee.. Curry sauce the BEST in McNuggets meal! =)

** Oh!! I'm counting down the days LEFT to serve.. its 369 DAYS to ORD!!
