Wow, a lot has happened over the past week. Its been about a month since being posted to my Guards unit and i think the past week has been the most eventful one. Finished my 2km coastal swim which was surprisingly easy thanks to the current, as well as a 20km route march. The march was easier than my 24km march in BMT mainly due to the fact that it was along east coast park! On a sad note, my platoon got divided into scouts or "ATGM" (anti tank guided missle). Out of over 40 troopers, only 3 got selected to become ATGM troopers and i am one of them.. Im really sad to be split up from most of my friends whom ive forged friendships with over the past couple of weeks. What hurts most is that we only started to click recently and already we are separated. I guess such stuff happen all the time and its part and parcel of life right? School friends, sec school and JC, then army BMT friends and now unit platoon friends. To make things worse, one of my best friends has left for aus =( sigh...
The weekend was fun tho, booked out earlier den usual because there wasnt any NDP this week. Hung out with new friends and caught up with old ones. Caught red cliff today, havnt watched a chinese movie in ages! glad to say that it was rather enjoyable.... but bleh! i still havnt managed to catch dark knight!!
ah well, im gonna b booking in soon xoxo

Another bookout!
To my surprise training hasnt been as bad as i thought. i had two slack days and then my nights out where i went to the esplande. had pizza and icecream after so long! got to know my army mates a little better. and then on saturday i went out again at night with sarah after bookout, great night for some reasons =)
Sunday was fun even though my coms fked, or more like my nets fked. spent most of e day fixing it but nothing worked! sigh. now i have to keep my laptop next to my com to play e games i wanted to play during bookout. all my friends are slowly leaving to go off for uni. joy left last week and sona's the next to go. gonna miss u all =(
Today was great! Was out all day, met up with lots of people. Me and sarah went to get a psp from sam and then out again for POTATOES =P. sarah tried to play e psp in the cab but she kept dying lol. gonna leave it with her next week so she can practise lol. introduced sona and sarah and i was glad that they got along well =). went shopping with sona after (teaching her to shop by herself at uni) and then had to rush home to eat dinner with me family before book in.
Im happy that things are finally coming together. NS isnt as bad as i expected and its even getting a bit fun. had some really good and memorable experiences there. im glad i have such supportive friends and family, and of course, since the last two months or so, sarah =)
