Got our Rifle

It was raining, and we were waiting for the rain to stop. We got their M16 rifle today, and it was lighter than the dummy rifle we had for first aid exercise. Its about 3kg. They are then in their uniform or 'long four' which means the green army uniform with long sleeves, and also they had their helmet and combat jacket, which had only the water bottle attached. And since it was raining, they wore their rain jacket, which has the same pattern and colour as their uniform (green). The rain jacket was supposed to be the most expensive item given to them. When the rain stops, they will be going to the rifle range to see the shooting demo...

M2 got their first punishment today, after the parade. They draw rifles and were officially presented with the M16 rifles in a parade at about 7pm after sunset. The rain was quite big but it was not CAT 1 so they insisted to have the parade outdoors.. Anyway, they were all drenched and stuffz, and there were lots of 'cock up' during parade like forgetting to greet when grabbing the rifle or having the rifle slip out of their hands. By that time everyone was all tired, yet things delayed and 'cock up' again when they were keeping their rifles, coz we were made to hold the rifles damn high when waiting to keep them, then everyone's hand was in great pain. So, after supper they were all asked to fall in outside platoon bunk and got into push up position and held it there for like 20 odd minutes. And by the time all that ranting ends its already over administrative time and we have no time to bathe, so everyone had to put powder and sleep just like that.

Road March

There was the road march today. And after that the fatter ones were pulled out was that CMPB had posted them wrong company, and they should be in the 15 weeks TAF company over at school. And its like wtf, how can the CMPB make such a mistake! And those affected ones felt that they are quite settled down over at his company already, and now they want him to go to a whole new platoon with whole new people, commanders, practices and stuff, and the administrative stuff had to be redone, so everyone over there was complaining, so the sergeant said to wait for medical officer and see hows the situation.

Today got swimming CAT test…most ppl passed. The requirement is to swim 50m that’s it. Some cant even swim for nuts….

Back from medic

Its been raining for like the whole day... and even when it stops, its only for awhile... but then later it rains again.

So, due to the heavy rain, all NS activities was cut. This is good news for those who wanna slack, but bad news for those who dont wanna slack. I polished boots with Shaun today, and yes, Shaun is back from the medic already! Due to his asthma attack, Shaun can slack for 6 days... and he's singing some christmas song... Lol.

Day 2

Day 2 in army, Got to knew that Mohawk Platoon 2 is known easily as “M2”, which is also the star of this blog. Every NS men had to wake up at 5.30am every morning, including zombie himself, and assemble at 5.45am. Then from 9.30pm to 10.30pm is the time for personal administration, for example, doing their chocolate cake business, bathe, wash clothes and call friends all in that just 1 hour a day.

The whole of this day was just filled with boring lectures and crappy stuffz. Well and the lectures consisted of stuffz like telling them who to look for and if they feel like killing themselves or what...blah blah >_<

First Day

Quite a boring one actually. When reach there, the parents and enlistees were separated while the enlistees have to go and get their id card and stuffz while the parents tour around the area. Then there was a long wait in the audi for all the parents to come, and already then, some disciplined was already instilled, which was very similar to npcc. Then the people there asked if theres anyone previously from any uniformed groups, but there wasnt many of them, and all of them looked quite nerd. After some video in the audi, it was lunchtime, and then from the slip of paper, we knew our company, Company M.

Night time was a pretty bad one... because everyone could not sleep, especially since a lot of ppl were not used to sleeping so early, and was also thinking of their familes and peepz.
