Rehearsals!

Well.. didnt bk out yesterday becos I didnt find any pt to bk out, becos had to be at camp 2230 the same nite.. so in the end, I went out with some of my bunk friends to Northpoint to spend our nite away.. We went to and fro by cab (becos 4 ppl share so cheaper!).. Had BK for dinner and then we walk walk the area.. We went to Arcade to pass our time loh.. you may ask wat time? We aim to only come back camp after 8pm, so as to miss the $1 peak hour surcharge.. cheapo rite? hahaha.. btw, if u did not know, the $1 peak hour surcharge applies at the time of boarding frm 5pm-8pm frm mon-sat.

Anyway, went to Cold Storage supermarket to buy some instant noodles b4 I went back to camp lah.. so bk in at abt 2030 (with cab of course) and then went back bunk.. ate a bit of supper.. bathe and then sleep lohz!!

This morning woke up at 0630 for getting ready to go for GOH rehearsals at Changi Air Base.

Rehearsals was ok.. but I guess the most happy thing of my drill today is seeing my sec sch friend, Zijing, who is in Tengnah! Its a long time since we chatted lah! Wanted to chat with him today at drill, but cldnt find the opportunity to.. even when I am free (ie, not talking to my friends), he's toking to his friends.. so didnt want to disturb him loh!! Man.. think we have a lot to catch up loh =).. but nvm.. who koes after sizing, both of our position wld be close to each other (becos both of us is abt the same height), and then we can chat until we dun want to chat.. ha.. so hope this can be the case lah!!

Today's rehearsals is actually quite different.. becos this yr's NDP and SAF Day, we wld be using SAR21 Rifle.. so the drill and standards are different.. but becos today we have not had the SAR21 yet, therefore, we use our M16 Rifle for the familiarisation!! It is quite difficult in the sense tat the rifle is longer and ilghter than the SAR21.. so again, we need to really get used to SAR21 when we are issued our SAR21 tml!!

Tml suppose to have rehearsal as well, but then tml we have to go for SAR21 Technical Handling Test (which is a MUST, becos its a SAF Rule tat to handle another type of weapon; be it to fire or to handle, we have to go for the test and pass it!! So ya.. so handle another weapon is not as easy as u think loh! Not like u want to anyhow play play another weapon also can.. so ya..

Ok lah.. gtg liaox.. surf a bit more and then have dinner! Bking in like at 2230 tonite.. For dinner, mum cooking bak ku teh!! =)

Hving P1 tml and Friday doing duty.. so I think I will blog on Saturday!! So till then, cya!! =)

** I'm still counting down the days LEFT to serve.. its 189 DAYS to ORD!!
