We were Soldiers

....for a week

heh just came back from ma reservist In Camp Training. Training was quite siong as the program squeezed a route march, Ippt and outfield mission in 2 days !
Was quite depressed as I found out how much of my fitness has dropped.. yeah I failed my Ippt! I ran 13.17 for 2.4 leh.. though I didn't stop in throughout the run... heh actually should have expected this kinda results as I haven't been running fer more than a year.

Anyway I was very happy to see all the rest of my platoon mates ! I had last seen most of them abt a year or so? hmm some still manage to meet up during Jb flight to aussie and of course my trio of pool and movie kakis who I meet most of the time when we are free.(Eddy & jeff)

Hmm seems like most of them are doing well, some have their own cars and bike, some start up their own business, some working for their dad, and some studying. Great to know that lawrence is also taking the same course as me !

We had a lot of fun during admin time in our bunk. We drink we play and we laugh althogether ! I think this is what I will look forward to for the next In camp training. Yeah !

In the end, I got second for taring 2 cans of root beer. and first prize goes to shun yi who will have to finish up a whole packet of combat ration.( think is mee goreng flavour) eeee everyone in the bunk covered their nose as shun yi tuck into his "yummy" green packet.
