Short month BUT Feb burns the most weekend as i found out this week.............

This week sucks as i found out i will be burning a lot of weekends since the sunday 1 feb where i serve guard duty to start off the month. I will be burning another one tomorrow doing another guard duty. Next weekend of 2 days will also be burned because of some duties. This kind of army lfe really sucks huh! Anyway, 3 weeks out of the 4 weeks of weekends in feb is or will be burned. It is all because of the duties to the country or the camp or the army which makes army life more painful than that of the police or civil defence force. Anyway, to conclude in whole, the army sucks as i repeatedly comment and complain abt. Another thing which i found out this week after returning from nights' out on wednesday nite is i was selected to participate in a change of command parade( COC) which the rehearsals started from thursday straight after a IPPT test which i volunteered to take before knowing i had to take part in the COC. So i went to the rehearsal after IPPT test which ends 45 mins before only. I only had that time to prepare for the rehearsal then. It was very rush as i had to cool down before bathing and change immediately after that. Anyway, that thursday sucks. Next week, i still have 2 more rehearsals before the actual day on wednesday late afternoon i guess. Suddenly, my relaxed feb turned the other way to become busy and packed for me. That's why army sucks because of a lot of things, one of it being involved in the parade like this one. Nothing much for this week, IPPT test aimed for silver BUT again got a pass. Huh, sian! Wasted my time again, just that the good thing is improve my timing for running again. For yesterday, it was victory challenge as games were played between the whole battalion to compete for who's really the best company in the 40 SAR. My company won and we won a day off for the whole company which my OC giving as a day off next thursday. The good thing is we get to go home next week for a day instead of being confined the whole of next week. Ok, weekend nothing again as i going back camp tonite for guard duty tomorrow. But before that will be meeting my cousin at my grandma's place as we will be doing guard duty tomo, just that in different camp. Updating will continue next week.......................

Weekend after the major outfield....................

Tiring weekend i would say for me, yesterday went out with ah kiong, serene, seb and yiqi. Met up at abt 1pm before going to eat sushi buffet at cineleisure. We left the place after eating at abt 3.45pm and shopped around somerset area to wait for lijin to finish her work. She finished work at 8pm and the rest of us met up with her except for serene as she went to had dinner with her parents and left us. Yiqi also left us before the 5 of us went for dinner at kfc in cineleisure. After having dinner, it is already 9.30pm and we decided to walk in cineleisure for a while before heading down orchard road to plaza singapura where we shopped another while before we dismissed everyone and went home. I reach home abt 11.50pm yesterday night. Today, going back camp as usual so same as every sunday. I having guard duty next sunday so it will be a short weekend for me next week. Huh, army life is just so sian. Luckily for me, it is ending in months. To be exact, it is 4 months more. The bothering thing now for me is the JPAE application which begins tomo, i am still thinking abt it. Time is running out, but i have until tomo morning to choose. After this, i should be in holiday mood with no stress already ba. At least until the results are released. Haha, see you guys next week!!
