Let’s get high.

Thank God, time is passing relatively fast, each day come to a stand still pretty fast. Except for those moments when we were left in our room undisturbed for self study, if anyone caught doing anything else such as surfing facebook will result in a “fun-filled” turn out.

Every morning when my alarm starts making a din at ten minutes past five sharp. When i had to  slide out cautiously of my bed avoiding to tear down the mosquito net, my mind will be fantasizing about coming back to bed at the end of the day. Well, i can’t deny the fact that i’m someone who really needs adequate amount of sleep, or it will send me into a panic at the disco grumpy mode.

Anyhow, i’m going back to Pulau Tekong for ten days outfield training tomorrow, hence i’m going to be confined and disconnected from the world for a fortnight. Forget about getting sleep and keeping clean. The last three days will be none stop missions, no time is actually being allocated for rest you see. Browsing through the upcoming schedule, seems like we’re going to have outfield nearly every week.  I must conquer my nemesis, somehow i know i must, i must.

I managed to secure a IPPT gold for my service term’s final grade, and it’s monetary, $200 for running my lungs out.

Just in case you’re wondering, while i’m sick of trying to describe, the above picture displays the accommodation officer cadets are given. Individual bed/desk/cupboard/drawers and not to forget an internet enabled desk, yada.

Yep, and Sook Ching have to remind me about the social night which is held on the 17th of Decemeber, when my progress is stucked at zero percent, stagnant, no date! Hello, what made it worst is the fact that it will be a wednesday, and the following day is platoon live firing, hence there won’t be any booking out!

Enough about my rants, i know they are leading nowhere but somehow i just need to vent out my Sunday blues. Time to hit the roads, need to head to Holland Village to buy my field camp nessescities.

Till we meet again mates, adios.
