my weekend gone....

first weekend guard duty of my NSF life
there goes half of my friday and the whole of my precious sat...
i could barely stay awake during my night shift at 12am
there was practically no soul entering or leaving the camp after 12am
haix why can't they just lock up the camp from 12am-6am and we can get more rest...
anw there was NDP rehersal in nee soon camp ytd and hence we get to enjoy their food
seriously the catered food for NDP is damn nice
much better than our cookhouse pathetic meal...
finished my duty at 8am this morning and went for breakfast with my parents

ended EMT(emergency medical technician) paramedic level 1 course last friday
will be starting level 2 this coming week... more things to learn and practice...
haix SMTI seriously live up to its expection of anyone who enters will fatten up
haha so far everyone who went there had put on extra pound
wonder what will happen to our body shape after three month...

one month has passed in SAF medical training institute(SMTI)
it is "holiday camp" compared to the type of treatment we get in BMT
2 more month to go before passing out as a medic
in the meantime i gt to memorise all the medical terms and procedure for the test next week
guess the course is quite worthwhile since i m able to pass out with level 1 paramedics cert
had my first nights out last tuesday and i hope it will not b the last...
4 ppl were late when returning to camp and one even lost his camp pass...
haix so many screw up happen on our first nights out

meeting up with my classmates tml for movie
just his luck to get 3 week confinement while i only get 9 days...
thinking back abt my BMT days i can just describe it as - enjoyable but u will not want to do it again...
glad i made it thru as a recruit and life is so much better now
hoping to get posted to some stay-out unit after my course
approx 560 more days to go...

2 weeks past since i first step into SMTI nee soon camp
well my training is basically full of lectures everyday
and it feels like i m back to school where i have to memorise things i m nt even interested in...
damn medic course is indeed torturing on the mind
especially when i do nt have any background knowledge in biology
suppose to have my first live IV last friday bt i missed it due to medical appointment
i m totally not a soldier pls... i m just a civilian forced to wear green!
haix i totally need to find a way to get thru my remaining 19 months...

received my letters from NTU and SMU finally
still wondering if i shld go for the business course or shld i change to FASS...
heard from my frens the ppl in business course are totally out of my league
and hence may compromise my performance in class participation...
however this may be a chance to improve myself by learning from them
haix maybe i shld jus stop thinking for now and decide 19 months later after i ORD-ed...

booking in later at 2200...
tml will be my first theory test on human body
have a feeling that i will totally flung this test
i have missed 3 days of lesson in the first week due to MC
and missed 1 day of lesson last week due to medical appointment...
haha i guess i will be OOC soon if i continue to miss lesson
