woo hoo! back from my field camp which lasted 7 days. tat means i'm about a month away from POP! its seriously a morale booster as majority of da siong programmes are coming to a closure. i'm left wif grenade throwing, range and of cos my 'sit-test' which starts this Monday. It would be another 3 days 2 nights outfield. well lemme give a outlook of wad happen so far.
basically, i spent 12 days in tekong. monday till fri i was at my company line, then weekend burnt plus another 5 days contributing to da field camp. it was quite a nightmare for da first 2 days and then after things were back to normal. lectures followed by pratices and training, everything seemed so routine. combat rations r actually quite tasty, there r some which can be considered delicacies even if u r civilian. if i'm not wrong, only da braised duck rice is inedible. da very first mouthful is somewhat equilavent to da last one u would ever take. i had da taste of it for my dinner on da first day. following then i would either throw it away or dig a hole in da ground and bury it since no one wants it. i believe da wild boars out in da jungle wun even look at it. as darkness falls upon us, da sky puntuated wif stars seemed so lovely. u wun get too see all this in sg. powder bathing and having da last packet of yr biscuits as supper and then u r off to bed. simply sleeping on a groundsheet only n wad u see on top is only da foilage n da sky. u seem to be at peace wif yrself and all around u. its like an up close and personal wif nature. u begin to ponder bout yr family, frens and loved ones. so many things r gng thru yr mind at a rapid speed but u r not confused at all. instead u glance back and realise how much u have matured over da past few months. u learn to treasure wateva u have now, be it people or things. u begin to understand tat u have taken so many things for granted, how selfish a person u r and how many times u caused hurt to others unknowingly. da fact is tat u recognise yr faults and tat is almost unbearable. but thru tat u gain knowledge and u improve yrself on yr character, weaknesses and strengths. tat is wat is most significant of all. it feels great to be home. really great. |
