experience my first unsupervised medical cover ytd for the battalion run
its also one of the longest medical cover i will experience in my nsf life
woke up on thurs morning 5am just to prepare e stores
went to watch the coy build bridge using m3g till evening
its seriously damn boring watching these machine work...
maybe i shld have bought along my itouch or psp lor
the first advise i got from my csm was to quickly get myself a psp and i was like WTH
now i finally get to experience first hand how boring the life of a medic is...

damn i can't wait for thailand exercise to be over
and i can enjoy my 6 days off and its the end of high key event for us
16 more months in the army

Reunion...

went to sentosa for a gathering with abraham after he MIA for almost 7 months from SG...
this gonna b one of his last time in SG before going to study in canada
the next time we meet each other would b most probably during euro2012...
as usual i m the earliest... even though i m 10 mins late
seriously army teaches us to be punctual right? however the training seems to have an inverse effect...
waited for junhong and edmund at vivo for like 2 hours before we finally saw them
bought a cheapskate ball at toy 'r' us for soccer at sentosa
i just realise that i can use ez-link card to gain access into sentosa
haha tink i m really cut off from civilization for too long
went to siloso beach and we started our very own world cup game
its been long since we had a get-together for the guys of A06
especially since abraham is back to indonesia and the fact we have to SERVE ns makes it even harder
cycled after trendy came to join us at ard 4pm
seriously sentosa is getting more overprice each day...
damn is SG really so despo to suck $$ off the tourist in sentosa??
i wonder if it will be the first and last time of the tourist to come sentosa if they ever visit SG again
i believe they would definitely have the common sense to know they have been robbed by the merchants in sentosa
went back to habourfront for dinner and we sort of develop an interest in the teh-tarik there
jiahao and junhong had 2 dose of them and they still yearn for more...
anw everyone left after that leaving behind me jiahao and edmund
went to the top floor of vivo and had some 'HTH' talk
however everything seems to link to army and to down pes...
went home at ard 11...

past one week in seletar medical centre for attachment is damn fun
stay-out life is damn addictive and i hope it can go on forever
been reporting to camp every morning for briefing on stuff we suppose to know
went back to bunk for nap for 2 hours after that while waiting for lunch
had another 4 hours of sleep after lunch before booking out...
seriously i admit i have been doing nothing at all for the past one week except sleeping
haix i feel guilty now yet i hope this kinda of life can go on...

2nd POP in my NSF life

passed out as a combat medic last friday
been doing drills and marching during the last 2 days in SMTI to prepare for the parade...
wednesday was our last night in SMTI and hence some of us decided to hold "blanket party"
went to prank our platoon best and few other ppl after lights out...
ended up one of them sleep with SOG(knife) throughout the night...
haha maybe its a bad idea to play such prank on that guy afterall

posted to selatar camp 35SCE as a platoon medic(damn!)
which translate to no stay out plus need chiong mountain...
first day there was just settling admin stuff and orientation around the camp
well the good thing is stay-out for first 2 weeks during the on-job-training period
jus gt news that i may be gg along with the unit to thailand for exercise 2 month later...
haix although some ppl say combat medic life is damn slack, it all depends on unit
i jus hope i will not need to dig my own grave(shellscrape) ever again!!
