six total days of shit coming up. the idea of reporting sick and attending the remedial session loiters around my mind. so how? suck thumb again?
i'll just pray that it doesn't rain for the week, we shall get lesser punishments and be able to book out at saturday night.
wish me luck again people.

this week was hectic and shagged. damn lots of physical training packed within the last three days of the week. lots of running in general.
good news is finally we can bring our psps into the camp. we are gonna do grenade throwing next week. bad news is that i am going to field camp the week after next. the sian inside me is just like a over-filled bottle.
went out with weijun and darren to town yesterday and watched hurt locker. i was doubtful when darren told me that it's very nice. he even promised that if i feel that the movie is crap he will compensate me with $11 (when the ticket prices is $10 at saturdays). i have to admit that the movie really depicts about the different kinds of US troops stationed in the iraq or afghanistan. the storyboard and character development is strong throughout the movie and seriously i recommend this movie to all those guys still in army (but not guys with their girlfriends dozing off halfway in the theatre). it's not the kind of movie where it's bombs and gunshots raining down. instead this movie emphasises on the mental aspect of soldiers in situations far worse than what i think a field camp is. either way i still tried to ask for compensation at the end of the movie but to no avail. a unique military-based movie. must watch.
to weijun:
either way try your best. because you shouldn't regret after that; no matter what happens in the end. i've been there...so i shall say that it's more about learning and growing from this experience. don't give up so easily...but if needed learn to let go slowly.
lastly be mentally prepared when you watch this:

this week was still kind of ok...booked out at friday night (being the second company to do so) and shared a cab between three other friends.
had a long day out yesterday shopping, attending a friend's 21st birthday and catching up with the people involved. chipped in for a fossil wallet as the birthday gift while getting myself a tee and shirt.
exercised a little and jogged this morning. slacking at home now.
as usual i still don't appreciate the feeling to go back to tekong. especially when there will be AGR and speed training together for tomorrow (for those who understand what i mean, the worse part is that i am in group A for these trainings).
true one month has passed but there's another nine weeks to follow. i am trying to keep my mindset positive but whenever it comes to these moments...the feeling is still not right. ever since the air force has held a talk on signing up a full time contract with them, the thought of whether i should do so or not has been lingering at the back of my head. but as for now my decision is leaning towards no. i am also starting to think whether i will be able to tough it out and make it to the BSLC course. hopefully i can get them done with and settled soon enough. but let me overcome the feeling of booking in first.
