Throat infection, cough and the loss of my voice, were the main highlights for these 2 weeks. Taken MC on both Mon which invited some gossips, but I don't really care that much. Last week, the recruits had their live range (100m). No one failed but some of them cocked up, until now still don't know how to check clear weapon, worst still some misfired. Not really afraid that they will shoot at instructors but must shout at them was a very tiring thing.

This week, they had their SITEX. OC wanted KX and me to lead a detail each. Although it was not really relevant but it turns out to be quite fun actually, seeing the recruits all working hard to meet the objective of each obstacles. My fellow colleagues said that I was sadist because at the start of the SITEX, I straight away give 2 arty drills to my detail, I even asked them to leopard crawl on the track. But from following them, I could really tell who was really the wayang king. Haha.... The worst part was the initiation drink, the stupid custom where new instructors must drink a mug, mixture of all sorts of stuff. The end result, definitely very disgusting. I escaped the thing because my throat still not feeling well but I had to drink for the next batch. Fuck it la.....

Almost 1 month never go club, went down to dbl O last night. At first, the choice of place was quite wrong. Why? The music was mambo, should have gone for R&B, Hip Hop. But fortunately, it turns out to be quite ok. Met up with Eric and Terence and drank a little. It was really pure coincidence, I saw my god-sis, Elaine. We have been in contact for very long but always failed to meet up. The other time I saw her was on the MRT. She came in I went out. Lolz.... I also saw one of my friends in OCS, Wei Zhan. We carry on drinking, until I really feel abit shaky. Ha.... Headed down to the dancefloor when the music turned to Hip Hop. Met up with Shuling for breakfest before heading home..... Now as I typed, the time for me to book in is drawing near....

Home sweet home at last..... I missed my bed, my mum's cooking, clubbing and so much more things than being in field camp. Just got back home from duty and 7 days of field camp. It has been a very tiring and long week, teaching the recruits and coaching them. Kind of tough but still can manage, but quite sad that it had to burn my weekends, so bored.... Other than being a nice guy, sometimes the recruits just need to see the "devil" for a while, and I also learned how to steal rifles swiftly. Lolz... Sometimes I wondered if I did right or wrong, the way of teaching and communicating with the people I worked with. I'm not sure too.....

First time as duty officer without studying of how is the job scope liked, felt quite scared as I don't wish to get any more extras, somemore our MPO is a jack-ass. Fortunately, with some advices from my colleagues and experiences in OCS, made things run smoothly. Lucky nothing big happened.... Now my mind is a blank, can't think of anything else to write....

Off until Fri due to the holidays within the week.... Shiok sia~ But it comes with a price!!! After booking out last Fri, headed MoMo with Farid and Ding. Rested the whole Sat noon at home but sadly, I had to book in at that very night. So sianz.... It's all because of the holiday, that's why the training is pushed into the weekends.

On Mon, the recruits got IPPT in the morning and I had to run with the last detail for 2.4km as a form of safety. I was quite worried though as I have not been running for some time, but luckily it was a piece of cake. The result of the IPPT was not very good, less than 10, got Gold.... Hmm, think they will need to put in more effort. Finally, we booked out around 8pm where the boat come late and we were the last company to book out somemore. Freaking tiring and wasting our time....

At first I did not wanted to go clubbing, until Allan asked whether I'm going anywhere tonight. So I decided to call some friends to see if they wanna go chill out or something. Then MJ, who has not been clubbing with me for a Very Very Very long time expressed her interest in going but on one condition, I had to persuade Janet to go. Wow, it's definitely a challenge 'cause she is always "busy" and dislike going to smoky places especially clubs. Although it seems to be impossible to do it, but I still hung on. Haha~ I called her and commented that she have not been clubbing for a long time, so I asked her whether she is interested to go or just give it a try. She was tempted and said will call MJ about her final decision. Finally, the next reply was "What time to meet?" Ha~ I was liked jumping in joy 'cause it's really hard to get such a girl out.... (",) Maybe I over-exaggerated a bit, but for the happy part is true~

I also got Shuling to join us even though she gave me lame excuses that she don't wanna go, well I didn't accept the reasons. Lolz..... So in the end, it's me with Shuling, Janet, MJ and Sandra who went partying at club MoMo. Quite a scary night though as it was Halloween, saw many people dressed up for the occassion, really daring I must say..... The music was ok but the crowd was not, don't know why that there was a lot of people walking around that night, pushing and forcing their way around the place which made me really pissed. Other place still ok but at the dancefloor where there are already so much people, how to make space!?!?! Then we had to shift place to place to avoid those hassles.... MJ had to leave early as she got to work 10am on the next day, so poor thing.... Thus Janet and Sandra went off with her, and me & Shuling headed home about 4am. Although the club was not very nice, but with the people I'm with, everything is GREAT~ :P
