Wow .. time passed by so quickly !! It seems like yesterday when i enlisted into 4 SIR .. then ZOOM !! 9 weeks pass and today i P.O.P loh !!
Have to say .. i have a lot of fun and laughters during these 9 weeks .. i oso make quite some friends inside .. without them, i think i will be SUPER SUPER bored in army ..
Now abt army stuff .. can say i've learned quite a lot of stuff which School can't teach you .. E.g : Can school teach you how to protect yourself when you encounter an enemy ? What we learned in the army, we can also use in our everyday lives ..
Then it's fieldcamp .. For a clean freak like me .. i actually can tahan dirtiness and not to bath for 6 daes .. imagine that .. and slping in muddy ground (All thx to the rain that keep pouring down when we reach Tekong) .. is simply confortable .. have to sae .. Tekong is super hot when there is no rain and damn cold at nite when u're slping .. i actually wake up and found myself shivering in sheer coldness in the middle of the nite .. but the feeling is .. OUTSTANDING !!
Then back to today's POP parade, before the parade, we have to complete 24km roadmarch in 12 hours .. it's not just walking .. you have to SING .. LOUD .. and you have to sing the same 6 songs for the next 12 hours .. imagine that ?!?! But don't worry lar .. Army not dat crazy .. you get to rest after certain kms but only for 15 mins .. Hahahaz ..
So after the 24 km, we straight away marched into the parade and carry on .. imagine 1 night din slp ... damn tired lor !! But our Sergeant Major sae we are soldiers and we are not allow to show our shag face .. and we must smile when we march in .. so .. Bo bian lor .. Lan Lan suck thumb .. Hahaha .. Then after the march in, our parents are supposed to put on the cap for us .. then we throw the cap high up in the air .. signifying that we have passed out a.k.a POP LOH !!
