The letter finally came... and upon tearing up the letter (cause i find those letters extremely tough to open), i found out that my date of enlistment is 15 June(Friday), 8.00am... Guess where? Special Operation Tactics Centre.. Now whats that? its the long form for "Commandos"...
Alex, you are so dead... totally physically UN-fit(note that i failed NAPFA test, problem is running, 2.4 is 15+ mins), although medical history is clean, have 3 other brothers for the singapore government to spare...
Going in 4 weeks earlier for PTP, cause i FAILED NAPFA, followed by a 9 week BMT... how sian is that? but nevertheless, i try to look on the bright side, at least i will be getting some allowance(though a small sum), i will get physically more fit, although i will suffer through the whole course... yes, my BMT is not in Tekong like most guys, i will go through specialised Commando BMT.
I am feeling a little nervous, but will do my best to remain calm... haha... i will try not to kill myself or get killed "ACCIDENTLY" in the army, as they would probably call it, due to the tough training.
I was thinking about the training phase where i would not be able to sleep at all for a period of 5 days or so.. do they call it "Hell week" or something? would i be able to take it? will i get OOC(out of course)? i certainly wouldnt want to... i am starting to feel the thrill of jumping out of the plane in the sky, parachuting down... ahhh... the thrill of it all..
Nevertheless, i aim to go as high as possible in the ranks... but if i do get downgraded for any reason whatsoever, so be it... that is just how i try to calm myself down, not getting to nervous about it all - Just accept whatever may come my way...
I guess i just like to think of myself as a "Chameleon", the ability to adapt to any situation whatsoever... that is probably one of the reasons why you might sometimes wonder why i dont get too suprised or shocked in most circumstances.
Well, 2 years or so, i will be training to be a Commando, if nothing will stand my way... haha.. As Dr Sydney would call it: "The Elite Red Beret"...
I just hope i dont get too brainwashed with any propaganda that might come my way in there, and that i wont get too weird as my sister and some others say, "those who go commandos, come out the thinking always become weird"... perhaos its the training... Well, that has just got to do with mindpower, i like to think my mind is strong, therefore, i will not be affected too much by what happens in there.. but we will see, wont we...
Anyway, enough about the army... I have just started reading another novel, a series of novel, to be exact, a children's novel. The Chronicles of Narnia. I found the movie rather interesting, and so i wanted to find out more, and i knew we had the series at home, so i took it out 2 days ago and started reading. Interesting... I just completed the first book.
The series REALLY is about the bible you know... afterall, the author was a christian... CS Lewis, a famous Christian writer.. i'm impressed actually, with his writing... calming, and peaceful...
Do note that i rarely read novels, cause i just have no patience to read them.. so in the near future, u wont be seeing me reading any inhumanly thick books with small prints, which my sister do read.. she is not human... HAHA... I guess i cant be a lawyer, looking at their crazily thicker than thickily thick law books with small prints inside.
Therefore, for now, i will stick with children's novels. Now what is wrong with that? i dont see any flaw or weirdness in that, so if you so happen to think i am childish, or have a weird mind, cause i am reading a CHILDREN'S novel, i say, you go sit on your bed an re-think what you are thinking... haha...
Oh well, decided i will not work for the rest of my time till army comes, want to relax!!! go out! have fun! watch movies! shopping! EAT EAT EAT!!! Of course it is also with other reasons/excuses that i dont want to work. many reasons as it is all stated in my organiser...
Yup, tomorrow morning going to Auntie Soon Eng's clinic(near City Hall MRT) to check the progress of the healing of my wound in my mouth, where once stood my wisdom tooth. Then after, i'm going to walk around that area myself, if anyone wants to meet me up for coffee or something, do tell me... my check up is at 11, i'll probably be done by 12, if not, sooner... then i will walk/window shop. But i do have to leave for my bible study which is at 4, so, i'll have to leave by 3pm.
Yup, thats it for now.. will update more soon...
