ok, i'm back from tekong!!! FINALLY manz... and in the afternoon too!!! sooooooo happy... in the morning we had our 3km run then games then bookout!!! so happy to be in BMTC School 1... school 2's booking out only at night!!! boo!!! hehehe... ok, i'm goin crazy... super happy, over the long long long weekend...
the even more fun thing, was that i'm the game master (assistant rather) of one of the games station... because my company is organizing, so we can "help"... hehe... so, at least i didn't do all the "fatigue work" (a.k.a. shit job, sai kang)... and enjoy myself in the midst of it...
ok, so how's the week... it's super duper slack!!! yepx... that 3 words describes it totally... because all the main stuff are over (Live Range, Field Camp, SIT Test, BCCT, BAC, GAC, Live Grenade Throw, etc...) and we are only left with 16 and 24km route march, SOC and IPPT... very much physical bahz...
and as expected, physical training everyday lo... but for like 1-2 hrs... den slack liao... but within this period, although slack, i can actually feel myself becoming stronger, and not fatter... FOR ONCE!!! hahahaha... and for once, i can do 8 pullups!!! EIGHT!!! i remember in CJ, when people tried forcing me to do and i still can't... here can do 8 liao... so happy... just proves one thing, i am success-orientated... when i am successful, i become motivated to be more successful... hehe... running too!!! in CJ, my timing was 15++ mins... my first IPPT 2.4km run i got 12 mins 47 secs; and now, 12 mins 1 sec... sooooooooooo happy... and believe it or not, i'm actually aiming for the IPPT Gold standard of 9:44mins... and i'm aiming for 12 pullups by end of BMT... i have 3 weeks.. i'll try, i'll try hard...
but sadly, i still can't jump... standing broad jump's a miserable 162cm!!! what the heck rite... my section mate can jump 250cm!!! nearly a metre further!!! haix... but i'll do more tuck jumps, high jumpers, etc to train... and i hope i can clear standing broad jump soon... get the technique right, and get my muscles in shape first... gRRR...
and besides PT, we recreate... hehehe... played chess and RISK... and called lo... call home to chat (now that i got this new phone Motorola W220 that has a super long battery life - it's really long life... for a whole week full of chats and sms, it's still at 60% battery... to think i am kiasu enough to buy a spare battery)...
yepx... i guess that's about all for army life for the past week(s)...
My birthday was great... as WeiYu, Rosel and Alyson discovered, i have super sweet parents who woke up at the middle of the night to celebrate my birthday with a cake... I also received several wishes from friends via sms and calls... yippie... and cheers to alyson too!!! for sending me a super cute birthday card!!! and to everyone who wished me happy birthday... thanks thanks thanks!!!
Then was Valentine's day... as mentioned briefly in the previous post (hurriedly posted), i made a box of gifts for her... plus the usual card... i didn't get her any flowers (i'm starting to think whether it's a bad decision)... inside the gift box, was a box of chocolates [the usual heart shaped Ferrero Rocher], a specially re-wrapped Phil Collins "Love Songs" CD, a pair of ear rings, a tatty bear, and lots of shredded paper... hmmz... i hope it's pleasing to her... she told me both she and her godsister "whoa"-ed... ok la... the bear was quite useless, but well, must it be useful in order for me to give you? i just wanted something as sweet, cute and as adorable as her, for her... for pictures, refer to benjimages... (i actually brought my camera and took pictures of it... hehehe... ok la, it's for the BBQ that evening, but i used it to take pics aniwae - memorable ok!!! my very first present leh)... all these passed to her on saturday at her workplace... (and i shocked her by showing up without first telling her... argh...)
