Lets talk about this week in camp. I can say this is the worst week yet in my course. Firstly, when i booked in last sunday, the first bad news that greeted me was that a cat urinated on my book-in-book-out book and i have to rewrite everything from the start and start a new book since I am the book-in-book-out IC. With the week long of tight schedule, i hardly have enough time to restart a decent book and i can say the new book is still now in a mess despite the help of some of my platoon mates...i emphasize the word SOME. Secondly, this week schedule is very tight with BCS and chemical defence. BCS requires us to set up and tear down the BCS over n over again from day till veyr late at night hence we were very shag by the end of each days' training. Chem defence is ok but wearing of the chem defence suit and mask really made us go mad coz its very hot inside. Now i can say i salute the MRF pple. Went into gas chamber, the experience was not as bad as i tot it would be, but still...due to the tight schedule on that day, our sgts were screaming and punishing us whole day long. Yesterday was very mentally challenging for us as a platoon. We were supposed to book out at 7+. And we tot juz like every week, we would make through the gate. Alas, i suspected something was wrong when my snr sgt decided to marched us to the gate from coy line. And yes, my instincts were right. When we were about 20m away from the gate, he berhenti us and started questioning our worth in the course, our attitude towards the course and our deserves to really book out. After the psychologically tormenting lecture by him, he finally announced "gentlemen, you are booking in now" and with that, we ker kiri puseng and march back to coy line and be "confined". While some of my plt mates cursed and swear at his decisions, i was loser and failure enough to sit aside and cry coz i tot i put in so much effort the whole week, all the book in book out thingy and all the tiring bcs sessions juz awaiting for this day to book out, were all gone down the drain. We dunno when we were confined until so when it was 10+, we decided to give up and turn off the lights to sleep. Juz then, we were asked to fall in and given another lecture by him again, this time, we were allowed to book out. With regards to this incident, while i admit that my snr sgt was not very right to play with our book out timing, he was really smart to use this, perhaps as a final warning to us to be serious about the course. I tot it was really effective in drilling some sense into us but then the repercussions of it would still prevail. Anyway, i wont bear any grudges with him coz i understand he also need to do his job. Finally, i am going to book in soon, this time sat night for guard duty on sunday. I was on the standby list, but most probably i will kena later coz some of the real guard duty pple were black listed for not turning up. So i would say i have a very very very slim chance of coming back home later. Still, i have to suck thumb and serve my guard duty i guess. Anyway, it is down to the last 1.5 weeks of this course. I dunno how it is gonna be, how its gonna end, we shall really see...
