Things to say.

Spent a good week in camp. Had live firing of the SAW, SAR 21, MATADOR and M203 this week. These weapon systems are fun to use, though they are a bitch to carry, especially the MATADOR (try carrying a 9kg tube and running around. not fun. worst part is that it's only good for 1 shot). Best thing about the week is that we had a nights off on Wednesday. Went down to Jurong Point to have a good dinner with my buddy. Had a good talk about all sorts of things, about life in general. It was a good night. Yup. Really enjoyed myself. IPPT on Saturday. Failed again by my pull-ups. Bloody hell. When can i ever get it right?
Spent the whole weekend watching television and just bumming around. Surprisingly learnt s few things from the shows i was watching (Grey's Anatomy, Scrubs etc.)

Lessons i learnt:
1) Never make promises you cannot keep
2) Never be too cocky to ask for help
3) Unexpected things can happen in the most unlikely of times
4) Sometimes being a good person can get you into alot of trouble. Learn to bend the rules.
5) Be yourself
6) When the going get's tough, the tough get going (cliche i know)

Yup. Lessons to treasure for a lifetime. Wonder what i should do now. Feeling so sian. Maybe i'll go take a nap. Short week ahead, only 4 days cos of Good Friday (its a good holiday). Problem is nearly everyday i'll be outfield. That sucks. That means wet and smelly uniforms, late nights spent with my crazy PC and more tekan sessions to come. haha.

Its going to be a good week.
