12th Week Book Out (Before Week of Field Camp)

Hi Buns,

Once again another week has passed and that means I am 1 week closer to the POP date.

12 weeks has passed already and 6 more weeks to go.

So next week is the week of Field Camp whereby all of us will get down and really dirty and muddy. And no bath. Only powder bath is allowed. That way we will be used to sleep in the forested area which is for future purpose.

The next 3 weeks are also quite hectic in the sense that they are all high key events.

Next week is Field Camp which is 4 Days and 3 Nights only for Obese Batch. And thanks to the Vesak Public Holiday on Friday, we shall all enjoy a long weekend. The last public holiday my was burnt due to guard duty. Argh. Not much time to rest.

2nd week from now is Sit Test in which I have a medical appointment on the 1st day of it. And Sit test involves a 3 days 2 nights outfield with a 12 Km road march. That is really going to be very long. And live throwing of grendae on the last day of May which is 31/05/2010.

Following that would already be the 2nd week of June. So

As for the 3rd week, it should be firing range with live bullets.

Thereafter, it will be some slack time, probably a few more road marches, 1 final IPPT test on 16 June i think, a few more SOC lessons and tests and the rest will go to admin time or area cleaning.

As for this week, it seems to be a long week for me. Monday was just a normal day, Tuesay we learnt how to handle a grandae, Wednesday, being the best day of them all as it is a day whereby it just kept on raining. So there is not much activity being done except 1 aerobistics lesson which was also shorten due to the rain.

Thursday and Friday are Urban Ops as your all know. Wah. Quite fun to be shooting for the 1st time in my life with blanks. And also to learn something new.

The thought of being a commander has being brought back to me. Thanks to my Mum's encouragement. I did not know that my relatives are looking down on me until she told me so. So i need to prove myself worthy enough to be able to go command school.

I asked my section commander how to be one. It told me just to do my best and participate more. I am quite surprised that it does look upon me.

I admit that i did lost hope along the way as it seems to be tougher and also pose as a challenge to me. It may seem easy at 1st, but it take a lot of effort and determintion to be able to do it.

It is similar to how i lost weight. It is really challenging but once i got used to it, the results just seem to show itself.

2 July 2010 is my POP Date. POP lol! :)

Yours Sincerely,
Doraemon
