didn't expect field camp to be rather fun. however, it was really tiring as well.

2 times when i felt like dying haha, it would be building the PW cage (prisoner of war) and dismantling the MG pit after building it. (machine gun)

we built our pw cage under the hot afternoon sun. man... with the sound beating down on us, constructing a cage took twice the time we did before. by the time it was complete, i had a slight tan mark from my helmet and i prolly drank a whole jerry can of water hohoho..

it's 3 missions in 30 hrs, so my second mission started at 10pm and ended at 4am by the time at about 3am when i was taking down all the sandbags, i fell asleep while standing! HAHAHA!! sandbags are like almost 20kg per bag, imagine we're supposed to carry 250 of em, but it was reduced to 150 so it's still like almost 3tons of sand!

well.. i got to think about a lot of things on all our toner and bus rides haha... i suddenly realised a similarity in the things i say at every part of my life and realised that i've got to change it.

when i was in school, i remember mentioning, "i can't wait for the 3 yrs to past." now in the army i'd say "i can't wait to ord."

all we do is just look forward to the end but we did not realised that once it ends, it ends. i was feeling a little sad about how i'd never be in school again, be in a setting where everyone's wearing uniform, sitted in neat rows, with a teacher teaching etc.

also, on our second night, we gathered to cook maggie mee haha... with our mess tins and solid fuel.. brings back lots of memories. scouts, east timor... all these will never come back..

so i realised that i have to treasure every moment, cos now that i'm in MP, i realised i missed my sispec days even though they were tough and i can't wait to get out of there. therefore, i should just enjoy my days in MPTS cos it won't come back again once i pass out.

this have actually make me treasure every moment with my bunk mates, and made me want to work harder than to just smoke everything else haha...

ok, this entry may be a bit messy cos like i've told some of you before, i'm not so good at describing my thouhts as much as i can do last time. haha.. i dunnoe why.
