its been a long time since i last blogged...
i've been quite tired and time seems to fly past me very fast especially during the weekends when i get to relax and breathe in the fresh air of the civilian world...
training in camp is regimental... being in camp has taught me to treasure loved ones even more... i think i've mentioned this before... but really... it does... perhaps its the staying away from home that makes one feel this way...
okie... training in camp can be quite tough at times... we are made to swim... crawl... roll... run... push-ups... sit-ups... jus last week i had boat training... we trained on the boat insertion procedures... as a commando we are trained to insert ourself in almost every way.... we can go in by air by parachute... from the sea by boat or by swimming...
tml i will be going to tekong for an exercise.... will be staying in the jungles till fri... which means i cant bath for that duration... and i will be eating combat rations... ya... we will "invade" tekong by sea insertion... and carry out our missions there... it will be tiring for sure... but it will work out... =)
i cant wait to be presented with my red beret... the presentation parade will be in may... it will be an achievement for me and a moment of honour with all my friends and family who will be present at the parade... i will don the red beret and be officially a operational commando... i'm looking forward to it...
hmm... i received my chevron's club membership card todae... my sis saw it too... den she asked what facilities do they have... den i said i wonder if there are tennis courts... hahaa... den she said... "i knew ur gonna ask that..." lols... den i wen to check out the website... to my disappointment there werent any tennis courts... hmm... i guess i wont be going to the club... nth there interests me... no tennis courts... nth much...
wen to beach road yest to get some equipment and later went to bugis and later to orchard... saw a tennis racket at world of sports @ cineleisure... costs 500plus... my friends asked me how come tennis rackets so ex... well... i also dunno how to ans them...
hmm... wen to club21's apple shop... saw the ipod nano... almost bought it... lols... cus i was already considering for a long time if i shld get one... and when i held the nano in my hands... it was jus so desirable... saw the pink colour stick on which looks really cool if its for a gal... its makes the ipod looks as if it comes in pink too apart from the normal white and black.... there was a silver too... but after thinking... i still prefer the white one... =)
gonna find someone who wans to buy one too... den i can chalk up the bill to 500 bucks and qualify for the club21 membership card... =) den can share the card to get discounts at the apple shop and club21 boutiques... =)
