kinda fast man... tml and tuesday i on off then flying off to india on wed by evening time.. advance party.. heard its really scorching hot and freaking dry there.. hope i get back in 1 piece.. loLx.. got quite a program planned out of sorts before i fly.. actually today was going to sentosa.. but no point dragging along the guys just for my own selfish wishes.. its just i miss my memories in sentosa... with my classmates during our chalet.. with that gal... and with my canoes on mayday.. just felt like revisiting them again...

phew.. another week passed.. soon im in india man! hahaz... yesterday went for basic main range where we fire all our big weapons.. hehZ... not many ppl in the world actually see a tank or APC fire such weapons hor.. >.<.. but this time i'm the chief safety.. so was a really tiring job... stayed ard to supervise the safety all the time under the rain too... rained and stopped thrice in the day till i was shivering but still had to do my job, keeping my cool...

at night there was abundance of 25mm rounds so the safety officers got to fire too.. hahaz.. i fired like 70 rounds lar.. so much carbon build up till the stench from your helmet smells better.. >.< i was safety for the 25mm cannon.. the weapon made in uS ar.. diff from other weapons.. the synchronization all very complicated... so had alot of problems due to the lousy feeding mechanism... so much so that i felt enlightened that whenever got prob and ppl struggle.. i go over take command and wella! its solved.. =]

when got back clean arms then i concussed till 10am and booked out.. the men booked out at 6am ar... but i was totally gone man.. being a safety officer isnt as easy as it looked before.. hahaz.. spent most of the day resting and sleeping... mom's frenz came over and entertain abit.. slept again.. then wake up kl say they all go watch movie ask me i going not.. haha.. seemed like they forgot about me ba... too last min i wanna watch jarhead also cannot.. haiz.. kinda dissapointed... not a very good day lar.. hopefully all the rest i got today can help me do more tml..

haiz... why the hell are we straight away posted to be PCs for 2nd year soldiers.. esp when theres so much to catch up or work up with practically no time to do it.. i really envy those who take 1st year soldiers.. they can slowly tune up their skills from scratch to the standard they have now.. but after being commissioned and all.. its been so long since we've really been in the heat of an exercise.. the skills arent as polished anymore...

to add salt to the wound.. though the feedback was postive.. i cant help feeling lousy and weak... unfitting to be a PC... its a daunting task.. achieving what our upperstudies achieved over a year within a month before we start our ATEC evaluation... life as a PC wasnt as relax as ppl think... the admin side was within expected workloads but the additional stress to up oneself's skills was abit hard to bear.. with no more precis or instructors like we had back in SOA.. we gotta fend for ourselves....

its a lonely job... thankfully 2 other guys from my course are in same coy as me.. helping each other out.. keng yang and jerry.. but still i feel like im behind both of them... hmph.. so much for SOM... this is crappy... wheres that confident me during my wallaby exercise? damnit... this sucks..
