November 18th, 2008 | Uncategorized | No comments

The time now is 0115 and I’m sitting inside the departure hall in Burger King (after eating a Quad Stables lol) waiting for the gate to open. Many thanks to those to bade me goodbye; i think it makes a lot of difference.
JCC upon my chest!

I’m leaving for Brunei tmr night at 2359 on a 3 weeks holiday, all expenses paid for by the SAF. I return on 7 Dec at about 3am, on a Sunday, which coincidentally, is race day for the Standard Chartered Marathon. The half marathon category (which I registered for, under the wrong intel of my [...]

The comms ball money isn’t settled, we haven’t got a tentative booking, I’m still adequately unprepared for Ex. Chindit for CWO, thanks to my 4 days Attn [...]

From all I’m up against out in this world?
Maybe, maybe, maybe
You’ll [...]

4 things

Just 4 things:
1) My attn C (otherwise known as an MC in the civilian world) has been extended until Friday (which incidentally, is also book-out day) by my trusty civilian doctor, who claims that the MO in my camp is nothing but crap for diagnosing me the way he did. Honestly, I agree with him.

Right now it’s a working day and I’m sitting in front of my own computer typing this, despite the fact that I should be in camp.

I’ve totally given up on blogging on whatever my life revolves about in camp cos I’m certain nobody will be remotely interested on how military life is like and it would ultimately bore normal civilians to death and put those about-to-enlist personnel (like Rudi) into depression by reading what their life is about to turn [...]
