Ex SPADE..!!!
Finally the most "sianzest" and the most "SiOng" field camp has ended.. haha.. actually not the tough also.. i would rather use Sianz than Siong.. imagine this is the only field camp where u doesn't require much thinking.. all u need to do is to dig and dig and dig.. oh man.. how sianz can that be.. it's Damn sianz lor.. after our lunch we march to rambutan hill.. just beside the link bridge.. we arrived at the training shed and feeling gd.. cos the whether is gd.. yeap!! bright and sunny.. put on camo cream and off we go..
hmm.. i was assign to dig the GMPG trench with 5 other guys.. but on the 1st day, my section short of manpower so after i finished digging my own shellcreep (roughly abt 1.8m x 0.8m x 0.6m), i went and help my sectionmates with the fire trench.. the shellcreep was quite alright cos i was taking my own sweet time.. *oOpz*.. relac man.. the soil wasn't that easy.. it was more like clay and the ET blade din help much.. everytime i dig, the "clay" will stick onto the blade and had to use my hand to "peel" off.. it was really very tendious.. KNN..!! took abt 2hr+.. erm this is consider VERY SLOW.. haha.. had our dinner and suddenly it rain.. all of us were very sianz.. somemore rain so heavy.. how to dig? more like scooping out the rainwater!! after the rain stopped, we started digging on our trench.. dig and dig and dig.. then came the rain again.. lightning come thunder and wind.. all of us were feeling very cold.. i had nv stay under rain for so long.. guo wei and i were very sianz.. everytime we dig, more water flow into the trench.. at certain point we just wondering if we need to shift the trench.. if we wan to shift, then we have to re-dig again.. haiz.. in the end we did not shift.. just continue with the stupid trench.. at arn 2 we were tired and took turn to rest.. after awhile, the rain became heavier and force both of us to stop.. somehow both of us felt alseep in heavy rain.. imagine hugging your own body and sleep.. aiyo.. it was really torturing.. after while LTA Timmy came.. then quickly both of us wake up and start digging.. my section mates infront of us were sleeping.. and LTA Timmy had to wake them up.. and the worst "PIG" of all was Jiawei.. LTA Timmy push him, use touchlight and shine at his face, called out his name and he still can sleep like nobody business.. haha.. guess what he was wearing ear plug.. haha.. then sir came to our area.. he told us to take turn and rest and did not scold us for such a slow progress.. cos he knew that the condition was tough.. and finally the rain became lighter abit and soon it morning.. message passed down was that we had stand-to from 0715.. so i took my time and walk back to my own shellcreep, and guess what!! CPT joel was infront of me.. he shouted at me "what am i doing here" i reply that i going back to my own shellcreep and prepare for stand-to.. immediatly he called the CPC and CPS and scolded them for not passing down the message properly.. the stand-to start at 0645.. OMG i ran as fast as i could cos he ask me to fly back to my shellcreep.. haha.. i immediatly jump and prone inside my shellcreep with pool of muddy rainwater.. haiz.. morale was low man.. after awhile someone told me tt cpt joel given us permission to prone beside the shellcreep.. i was like WTF.. why din tell me earlier.. haiz forget it la.. i was inside already.. that nth much i could do..
On the 2nd day, we learned defence.. use constancetina wire and set up mine all these.. and the rest of the day was basically the same.. digging.. but this time i was digging the GPMG trench.. the soil or rather mud was damn diffcult to dig.. there are some points where i use my own bare hand and dug.. haiz.. it was really tiring.. actually it not that siong one.. it the rainwater tt causes us to feel damn shag..!! Our boots were heavy.. kept sinking inside the mud.. =(
At night we had those defence training.. nth much also except one of my frend kena misfire.. haiz.. poor thing have to end up like me liao.. RCP.. anyway.. next day we were back at our camp.. our feets were like rotten feets like tt.. the skin all these.. YuckZ.. can't expect anything better than this cos our feets were wet for like 3 days.. haiz.. back to clear store all these.. sianz..
anyway Standard Chartered Marathon 05 is just 2 weeks away.. my preparation was just alright la.. last week ran non-stop for 1hr and 30mins.. and today ran abt an hr++.. maintaining at a pace of abt 10km/hr.. i must get use to this pace in order to run my 1st ever 42km Marathon.. though is was kinda slow.. but my aim for this Marathon is to complete it within 5hr.. wish me luck..!!
