This week is practically all about sleep! I took Status last week before the outfield. 2 weeks RMJ. With that I practically Skipped almost all the training. Hahax
Monday there was SOC Training in the morning and Endurance Run in the evening. I skipped them all including 5bx. Hahax
Tuesday there was Endurance run also and again I skipped it. Its also the first time I had PC interview with my current Platoon Commander while the rest had been interviewed twice already...
Wednesday There was another SOC Training. Again I skipped it.
RMJ status is really useful man! Hahax Ask me march the whole company to cookhouse? Say I have RMJ and I can take my time to walk behind while the rest march. Hahaha
Thursday my status expire. But it is still on. There was Route March of 4km with organic weapon and field pack. Which means I had to carry my law tube. I took part in the Route March. Most of the Status guys also did. I placed my law tube on top on my field pack and it almost smack my Sergeant's Face as I turned when he talked to me. Hahax
After the training all which is in the morning, all we did after that is Sleep, Lunch, Sleep, Dinner, RO, Sleep!! Hahahax!!
Friday Was the Company Cohesion Day. Booked out the day before and meet at Vivo City in the morning at 7:30am. We went Sentosa Siloso Beach to have some activities like treasure hunt or some stuff like that. I followed my platoon to find the first clue. Instead of helping, a few of us played with the Peacock walking around. Hahax After the first clue some of us went to the admin point and play some soccer. Even my Platoon Sergeant played. Violent sia he! Hahax Another platoon's Sir also play. Hahax Had loads of fun. Some of us left after OC gave his speech at around 12 plus. Was fun to be there but Lazy to stay. Sentosa without a Guitar is a mistake. Any why I didnt bring my guitar? Who will listen to the songs I play???

Another Weekend Burnt Yet again. Booked in Tuesday night and Spent the whole Wednesday doing noting. Practically just sleeping.
Thursday I had Guard Duty. Good thing I had my PSP. Hahax I did Prowler so Basically I dont have to do anything untill after dinner. So I just sleep! Hahax
Friday We had Platoon Fire Movement Training. Pretty much a practical of what was thought the day before where I wasnt there. After that Everyone went to Prep their Vehicle for the Outfield the next day.
Saturday till Tuesday Was my Platoon training outfield. Saturday We did Infantry training. Was fucked up but had lots of good sleep at the training shed of 6 hours. Sunday was the A.I Training. Not as bad but we slept at the lugger area for only 2 hours plus. Camo the stupid vehicle and all... Fucked up. Monday all three of out platoon were suppose to dig shell scrape for delay at night after A.I training in the morning. But in the end we dont have to. We only need to mark it out. The other two platoon only did delay and thats all. Sleep at the Shell Scrape area till morning and do the delay. For my platoon, we rehearse the Delay once but never really do it like the other platoons. We went back to the training shed to sleep for 2 hours and went on on foot to Platoon 10's Delay area to attack them. So that they can Practice their Delay. Although we do extra stuff, Its still better than doing just delay. Platoon 11's Delay area is where we shit and pee. And one poor guy was like lying right beside a shit. Hahax
Tuesday afternoon we came back to company line and we all start cleaning rifle till night. When RO reads reveille the next day was 7am all started asking if its really cougar company. Hahax The best part? Everyone overslept. Haha. Breakfast out ration on Wednesday and after that back to sleep. Body Maintenance. Mandatory Rest. I booked out on Wednesday night, One day more off while the rest book out on Thursday night. I did extra on New Year's Eve, its also the battalion block leave. So they payback regardless its extra or not. Hahax So extras actually had its good effects. I managed to skip SOC training and endurance run of 3km on Thursday. Hahaha!!

Quite a relak week on the weekday but the weekend was Fucked Up!
Wednesday Morning some of us woke up early to go Sungei Gedong Camp to do some shit work. We were told that we be helping them out in the FTX (Full Troops eXercise) by being the boat party. In the end, we were more like helping out 35 SCE instead. Hahax 46SAR was doing some river crossing, floatation, and there are boats with life guard on to ensure of their safety. After the exercise, we all went to Seletar Camp. Where they hold the 35 Singapore Combat Engineers, where my brother spent his 2 years. We help wash the boats and all. Eat their at their canteen and all. It was fun yeah but we went back company like quite late.
Thursday Mainly we Prepare out vehicle for the coming Section Life Firing on Sunday. Morning we had some endurance run of 3km.
Friday There was a life run of 4.5km in the morning followed by a Safety talk by a Captain from HQ, the S3. Well it seems that the most accidents during training came from my company... Hahax Garang mah! After that is sleep sleep sleep than Book out. Went to my friend's Bar and chill till 3 before I go back for a good sleep.
Sunday was my Section A.I Life Firing and I have to book in on Saturday night. Basket. Woke up early in the morning to go there and spent almost 24hours there. We went back at company line at around 5am and clean Rifle all the way and finally book out with 2 days off in the afternoon.

Had the worst Christmas and New Year of my life of 2007. Went back to camp on Christmas day itself at 6am to report for Guard Duty. 2 guys never come. Say what visit mother in hospital. Both same reason. Maybe same mother... Hahax They planned Guard Duty for men but never plan for Commanders... In the end the day before's COS had to do Guard IC. Hahax
The next day on the boxing day Without Guard Rest I went for the Life Saver's Selection Course. Swim halfway almost faint. So I fall out. The training itself is murder so I wouldnt wanna go anyways. Imagine swimming in long 4 with LBV... No transport for us so we took cab to Pasir Laba camp and bus back from there. In admin attire... Come back everyone went to vehicle shed to prep vehicle. I slept through the whole afternoon while the rest went. Hahax
Friday to Sunday went for A.I Out field. Chiong with the Vehicle. The Drivers went the day before so we practically Rested for one day. My vehicle the OWS was at the workshop. So my Driver and VC went to collect it. Others went for 2 runs already We still havent start.... Hahax When it finally arrive it was night. Use for one day the ramp spoil. Almost crush my toes somemore.
Come back on the sunday to clean rifle. Everone clean their rifle overnight I go sleep. Coz on Monday New Year Eve, I got freaking Guard Duty. And freaking hell, While we were watching TV someone threw apple pie butts out of the window. Which is like the other side of the Guard House. Spooky...
Most Fucked up Christmas and New Year I've had in my life... Haiz what to do? Pick a thumb and suck. Dog of the Military... Haiz
