16/5/2007 HLS run

*Posted on 26 December 2013. This is a make-up post.

As my batch is the most free one, some of us are involved in Welcome Guard, only me and Jing Xian weren't involved. So Chua asked us to go for HLS today

HLS is conducted every Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays and run around the camp 3 times and one round the parade square once to make up 5 km.

But both of us were a bit late. So Chua ordered us to stay-in next week for a week which I really did. Even visited the so-called Kranji farm, have to go back to camp to stay-in.

Actually come to think of it, I could have continued stay-out since nobody was around lololol... 還是那麼地聽話的說。 Oh well, it doesn't hurt so much to stay-in too since I could entertain myself during that free time. Maybe I'm still new to the system and used to the 3-month stay-in at Tekong liao. Hohoho~

Those were the days...

SAR21 training and practical + MOPP4, tear gas practical

*Posted on 13 December 2013. This is a make-up post.

As far as I can remember, there was something like this happened before. Therefore trying hard to jot down whatever I can before forgetting them again.

Since during BMT the weapon learnt was M16 and recently they changed to SAR21, no choice but to learn it. Can't remember who taught us that but the training was done internally at shed. After that had some 'practical' (more on this at another post), but really what felt good was that my batch didn't have to care about the weapon, returned liao can zao already! Haha...

Then ODs will include JGL and EMR, have to learn how to wear gas mask. Remembered rather clearly training was done at SAFPU (returned back there again) on the day before the actual practical test at SISPEC. Basically, experienced what PG they all were doing for the rest of their NS lo, including wearing that MOPP4, but the actual one there was no need to wear that suit, only wear mask will do. The practical was simple, went inside a room, shout out a sentence to make sure I could 'survive' in that environment. The moment everything was over, I ran out and holding onto the fence to grasp some big fresh air.

Still remembered straight away half day off after coming back to SAFPU! Yay! But whether was it stay-in or stay-out I can't remember liao, but my guess was stay-out.

bitchy

Yesterday was Labour Day...
Happy belated labour day!

Actually hor, Labour Day is a day defined for us to have a rest at home after one year's of effort at work.

But a trip to downtown, it seemed that Labour Day is just a normal weekend.

Initally 3 of us were supposedly to turn up, but that extreme (should have called him 飞机王) in the end didn't turn up. And we had to gave him a call to ask his whereabouts and he replied he had headache! Adui, if you're not going to turn up, gave us a call or send message la...

PG told me how 马杀鸡 bitched with Jordan. 拜托, 马杀鸡 is forever bitchy. From those messages sent by him would know la - every message MUST contain the root word BITCH..

I smsed him using Chinese characters, haha... sometimes an idea is not effectively presented using English language lor...

Then after the trip to beach road to buy some army stuff (not me of course =D), we went to Bugis junction. And guess what?! The neoprint shop appeared the moment we took the escalator up! LOL...

Went in to take a look at those machines... haha... getting more and more excited about them liao. In the end, we couldn't resist the temptation and $11 just flew away!

After that, no more programme liao... PG had something on, then I went to IMM by myself.

After loitering there for a while, I went back to JE interchange where a female surveyor (apparently she's not) approached me to do a survey. Was thinking that completing a survey only take at most 5 minutes and nothing more. So I took lor...

After completing the survey, she went on her story about how much to save. Initially she chatted about my life in army. After that she carried on with those calculations of those saving interest, how much I would have accumulated at the end of XX years, etc...

I was thinking, why can't she went straight to the point by asking "Would you like to open a saving account? Then bla bla (with those advantages she could came up)". A person like me would less likely to be interested in those banking affairs would reply "no, thanks" straightaway.

In this way, it saves both of us time.

Really LOL...

Oh ya, 2 saturdays back, I bought a 2nd hand Nokia 3100 from a forumer! A first for doing a transaction personally. LOL. Basically, my trusworthy and humble Nokia 3610 which served me for about 4 years had given way - the battery is bloated, so I am in need of a mobile phone with no built in camera, to suit NS lor. $55, I thought it was reasonable la...

Yup, think that's all le ba.

Photo time.

这是我点缀的。我们俩中了‘拜托病’,前后都要讲拜托的
这个没有装饰到!因为机器给我们时限,但是还是不够用咯!真的是分秒必争之事...
选择teddy bear作为背景是有用意的,呵呵....

证据确凿!跳入黄河都洗不清啦!
