And remember me tonight

Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don't make me change my mind
Or I wont live to see another day

of another chapter
OCS. To Lead, To Excel and To Overcome.
i'm kinda nervous yet very excited for my next 9 months of training. definitely everyone is. i remember the only thing that made me go through the first 2 weeks confinement was the thought of going back home to see my loved ones and of course the prata at The Prata House. haha. i guess, honestly, i would need alot of motivation from alot of you guys out there and i wont just say for myself, but also motivate the rest of the OB ppl as well. OCS - Ben, Joe, JJ, YongJie, Kelvin and those SISPEC guys, Kaihoow and JunWei.
these are the times when words of encouragement are gold and keeps ppl going. just like during my field camp when i received a letter from my parents. we soldiers dont do this for ourselves but for you guys out there, protecting the lifestyle that we have right now. (like going thru war now like that haha)
anyways. 9months is not an easy feat. but the reasons that join OCS will still be strong.
-pride, making loved ones and friends proud
-honestly the money LOL
-to inspire ppl when i commission.
tough times dont last. tough men do. so lets do this FIQ!

of marking the end of BMT
POP LO!
haha. 11days block leave. left with 4 more days. sucks. so fast. sigh. will know my posting on the 19th. hopefully its want i want. if cannot, nvm, gotta stay positive. anyways.
JAGUAR COY CHAMPIONS LO!
haha. we won Recruit's Night performance and Games Day. Recruit's Night is a night for a few of the companies from the same school will get together and performances from selected companies will be performed on stage. obviously i was a part of the performance for Jaguar Coy and i told myself that if my company gets selected to perform for the Recruit's Night, i'll go all out. like. all out la.
so our performance was about a fashion show. its about modifying our uniforms to suit ourself during our trainings la. so we had 5 models. yes im one of them. my design was called the Gay Slack. what i did was i wore a swimming trunks and folded a tshirt that looks like a bra and boots. they say really look damn gay >.> so i went all out by making that swimming trunks to something like a gstring la, so u can actually see the sexaayy butt cheeks. >.> then my designer went to smack it real hard till got echo all over the MPH.
we thought we wouldnt win it because Yankee and Falcon did a great job too. but too bad Kelvin(performed for Yankee), Jaguar will always win you guys. LOL. (btw all of it was super impromptu). :D anyways. mixed feelings about POP. happy yet sad. im really gonna miss my buddies, going thru thick and thin with blood, sweat and tears together.
JAGUAR COY!
bed buddies
platoon best,2nd best,
3rd best.

of pushing yourself to the limit
finally got my silver for 4th ippt.
sbj: 225cm
2.4km: 10:16min
now the question is, can i push to gold in a week? all seems far fetched. i need 9cm more and need to run 32secs faster. i know ive been trying for gold. but its never easy. hell, nothing is ever easy in this world. you want something, you work hard for it. i had only 5 days to train between my 3rd ippt(which i got a pass) and my 4th ippt just because i miss silver by 4cm :(
so my scores for all the statios were 5 5 5 5 3. haha. really pushed hard to get a 5 point for 2.4km.
maybe a silver is just enough. maybe...

of blood, sweat and tears
rawr! field camp is finally over!
the worst shit is indeed the best shit because when u know you have accomplished the toughest shit, you'll remember those times when you grow older. like for example, my rugby days. if i didnt give my all, i wouldnt be proud of it at all. field camp made me realise that in life, theres always something for us to bring back as memories, and thats when u really work hard for it; blood, sweat and tears.
and yes. i cried like a baby. well most of us did. i've talked to some of my platoon and company mates and most of them said "sial ah, before army never cry for like so many years, go field camp then cry like baby". i wont tell why we cried or how was field camp, but u can always ask me when we meet up :p. lets just say, soldiers out there are not fighting for themselves but fighting for their loved ones.
i kinda lost a few kg along the way as well and also miss being the platoon and company IC. its fun to be an IC lar because i love to be upfront and tell ppl what to do! haha! but in all seriousness its a great responsibility. but if theres another opportunity again, i will gladly take it and do better. =D
i know most of you ppl reading this havent seen me for a long time. will update with pics soon enough.
sit test in 2 days. lets do this fiq!
"do it once. do it right."

of so near yet so far
so i booked out early cuz i passed my IPPT. haha. but the disappointing thing is that i didnt get a silver. but nonetheless ive improved alot. :D:D
IPPT 19/06/08
Sit-up: 40 5points
Chin-up: 5 1points
SBJ: 197cm 0points
Shuttle Run: 9.2s 5points
2.4Km: 12:46min 1point
total:12
17/07/08 points
Sit-up: 40 5points
Chin-up: 10 4points
SBJ: 216cm 2points
Shuttle Run: 9.3s 5points
2.4Km: 10:58min 4points
total: 20
we were discussing amongst ourselves about who to pace with etc etc, by what timing etc etc. a Sir overheard us and said "dont care timing, just run and give your best shot because your trainings will give u a surprise." so of course, i thought, ahh what the heck, they say those who pass can book out early (previously they say only those who got silver and above, but decided to give chance), so i just aim for a pass lar, which is just 12:20. and a bloody surprise it was. haha. 10.58 oh!
but like what the Sir said, i tried my best and i have never like the idea of running fast for 2.4km. it was a huge improvement, well, for me at least, since my best ever timing was 12min in my entire life. haha. it could be the red bull, which gave a very bad side effect. i was suuupppeerr tireeeeed after the whole run.
i guess what i should do now is to improve on my sbj. for 9.44mins timing for 2.4km, well, i'll let the trainings do their job. 2 more IPPTs. lets get the gold syafiq!
