Long weekend over...

okay.. the 3 days of training last week was kinda fun, probably because it was a short week and I had a long weekend to look forward too. Monday x-country navex was fun man. 2 convoys of jeeps moving out to different checkpoints. We just can't get lost! I mean, this is Singapore afterall, and I seem to know the places pretty well, from the east to the west. :P Thanks to my dad driving me around all these years I guess. haha. I also seem to have a thing with maps, for some reason, there's just an inate sense of direction in me which doesn't get me lost easily. Can't wait to start driving.. it was so cool to be on a jeep.

Nonetheless, everyday will be camo on since last week. :( Gross. Hate the waxy feeling on my face and my long 4 full of camo cream after the excercise. And my complexion is getting bad too. Bah. 2 more weeks of camo on to go. =
My weekend was enjoyable, even the guard duty, I must say. Not that it was FUN to burn a Sunday in camp, but Nee Soon's guard duty was really too slack compared to Jurong. PFft. Hai. Didn't accomplish much during the weekend, nv game much too. Bleh. Friday went to Sentosa for 30SCE unit anniversary, got close to 1 of the female host..touch touch somemore. eeck. Wonder why must the army spend money on such entertainment, make us look so.. ineducated. After that went to play pool with the rest of my platoon.. they aren't very good I must say. ;p
Saturday was our regular 'get-together' day. Went to Orchard, but no movies to watch (Hope to catch the Incredibles this week, if I get to book out), had dinner at Billy Bomber's. Their hamburgers were pretty good.

So, toda's the 15. 17 more days to go. For this week, every would be outfield surveys.. bridge, bridge site, demo. target and obstacle. hmm. I hope we get to book out this weekend, tho the stupid OI said we might get confined for more training.. that means 2.5 weeks cannot book out! :( *prays* Seems that before Xmas arrives, everyone's facing challenges ahead. I've my hell weeks to come, the cadets have their Taiwan trip, uni students having their exams, etc. Hope everyone'll pull thru fine and we'll all be able to have a wonder xmas ahead.
