What else to say? It's finally over. Right now, I am having my block leave till next Monday, where I would need to book-in by 2015hrs at Tanah Merah again.
Sincerely hope the new recruits don't fuck us up. I sincerely hope too the old guys knew that BMT won't be easy and the discipline must be there, please guys... Don't let this short break take away your discipline!
For now, I have a set of training regime I need to follow throughout this short break. I need to start cultivating the discipline to do training on my own as our BMT phase would be very much filled with theory classes and tests and much lesser PTs.
Now, other than training, I seriously need to figure out what else I need to do. Darn, many of my friends are packed on weekdays with work and schools, so can't go out with me even if they wanted to. Maybe I should pop-by JE Library and spend my time there reading some History books to gain some magnificent infos. I should also go to the gym to do some dragonboat training regime and the swimming pool for some practice for my CAT-1 test that will be coming up during my BMT days.
So many things to do, so little time. I still need to write my daily happenings on my journal so the sergeants and sirs can read! Troublesome but I don't mind. I'm already gotten use to the military life, it's less stressful than even staying at home. BMT will be the best days in these 2 years of my National Service, I intend to make the best out of it. Making friends, having fun and other stuffs. We play hard, we train harder, we do our best.
I ain't looking forward to my time in BSC though, it would be lessons everyday depending on which vocation you are posted to. There will be rarely any PTs and you will have to do trainings yourself.
There are some interesting things my boatswain share with us about!
We all know IMOS is infested with rats, especially the dumping area opposite us. But why isn't our building infected with these pests? Because we ain't allowed to bring in snacks! He told us even though the BSC blocks are much further away from the dumping area, there are rats spotted even on the corridors of the building. BSC trainees are allowed to bring in their own snacks, but those darn rodents bite their way through the steel lockers! Jeez!!! There are also many traps laid around to hamper their activities. He also shared about this one guy from BSC who already graduated and now serve in the Changi Naval Base. That guy, was a magnificent pest-controller. In a day, he can catch about 3-5 rats with the traps he carry around! That guy's a genius! We also talked about a lot of stuffs. My boatswain is going to ORD soon though. During the first week of our BMT, he would leave us already. He is a great boatswain who train cadets up with his extremely harsh doctrine.
That's about it for today I guess. The sun is up high and it's time to run!
I need to start training. Later people~
