ORD LOH !!!

Awaited this day for 1 year 10 months ever since i enlisted im so dreadful for this day every single day i wake up to this bed frame netting view of the double deck bed in the bunk and missing home and my family and sacrificing my everyday life doing lots of shit that no one ever gonna understand except those who when through infantry life. BMT i really almost hit my breaking point i almost break into tears and cry before i go to sleep during the first week of BMT at Tekong.

Worst punishment could ever do in life is to take away somebody freedom and will to live their ever human rights just gone, sold to the army. At that very point of time i cry out loud, i would rather sold my soul to the devil then be there, but the devil never came. Somehow the devil dont even want my worthless soul, so all i can do is just endure through this shit every single day i woke up and go to sleep.

During BMT Tekong Dragon Coy was not a easy thing at first because your not use to being confine inside an island where ur so near yet so far away from home kind of feeling. I was very happy to be inside this Platoon 2 Section 2 Dragon Coy, maybe because of the age gap and the education background of each other was the same (EM3 to NT to ITE to Poly) we blend in very easily and have mutual respect and understand. The 7 day field camp was the worst and the most to talk about, 12km road march to the field camp site and after that we started building our basha tent and have our rest from there sweaty smelly and tired and we cant go for a shower ! Thank god i have this person who im proud to call buddy !~ Although his physical fitness at that time wasnt very good but we take good care of each other till the very end. It was an awesome experiences with him until i enlisted into 5SIR.

Unit life was really tough, since it was 1 year 8 months of hell let me try to summary it into few words. Intensive PT, High Discipline & Training Standards, Shellscape, Rolling in Mud, Numerous Road March & Field Camp, SBO1-3 PT & Combat Run, VOC, Weekend Burn (Guard Duty) sometimes Extra, 32km iCSB Road March, 10km Endurance Run, SOL(For some only), Toilet & Area Cleaning, Countless Sai Kang and of cause Wallaby.

Above all mention, countless times of AWOL thoughts has always be there, despite all the tough times, We endure it through, cause of our motivation towards each other and not forgetting the sergeant that motivated us, help us and kept us away from all troubles.
Seriously thanks for all the support motivation and keeping us away from troubles extra or punishment, boosting our morale all the time even thou u see us damn sian liao u also damn sian but still boost the morale of us. Without them, i will not have able to have achieve my IPPT Gold, Marksman & iCSB 32km Road March & going through all those tough training together. And more important i should be somewhere in the mountains hiding away from SG custody/MP.

Those friends who suffered together for the past 1 year 10 months together especially those sergeants & officers who led us through those training are more then just a thank you note for them we might hate each other at times but i guess it's because the things we meant to do, did this to us.

Nonetheless, i wish everyone a Happy ORD. Im so gonna hate ICT and IPPT when i get my call up !

ORD Soon

For the past 1 year 10 months we endure everything we could have taken and thrown at us. All the scolding and the tekan session from BMT to getting into our own units and all the road marchers and tough training. We could finally say that we have come to an end of this life and time to move on back to our life.

Im so glad even after BMT my BMT bunk mates we are still in contact via Whatsapp or whatever social media to keep us together. It was never easy to have such nice friends who can talk to you over a small topic even we have just been only together in short 9 weeks and we parted our ways !
9 short weeks may be very short but there are alot of things to talk about our life all those stupid funny stuff we did together as a recruit.

It's really not much of a pride in what we do here as we are not handling with anything real wars or fight but we always talk about it. We are not talking about it because we all love it or whatsoever, we talk about it because we wanna share with the world that how fuck tup this place can be and might sometimes did to us.

As said, it wasnt much of a pride but at the least very few days before going ORD im going for a final parade which is the milestone parade they called it. Dawning on the No.1 Uniform, those white long sleeve uniform you guys normally see in NDP and do some marching and stuff. Although most of us will say it's a bloody waste of time and we wont wanna do it, but come to think of it, it will be a waste after all those times we suffer and go through we dont want to do this parade ?! Yeah really what a waste. It isnt much of a pride to be standing up there in the parade square to do the parade, but after 1years and 10months the uniform say it all those achievement badges on ur uniform will make a hell lot of differents....

Now i guess its the perfect time to say it... In 4 days.... ORD LOH !! 
HUAT ARH !
