Pain is temporary
Pride is forever

This slogan helps me thru during the 2 weeks of trainings. Whenever i wan to give up, i will think of it... Whenever i'm sick, i will also think of it... Be persistent & stay postive, believe tat u can make it thru...And u will success in defeating the pain & agony.

During the first 2 days of my training, i gt serious headache... No appetite, move like a sick chicken... Lack of slp is the reason behind it. Took the painkiller on the 2nd night, and i regained my tip-top condition on the next day. Following on, the training is getting tougher as days passed on. Intense training to build up our fitness, informational lectures to enhance our skill & knowledge, and most importantly, more admin time to call our miss ones...

Life at Pegasus company is GOOD!!! Real Good!!! The OC is like a father to us, the CSM is like a uncle to us, our Officers & Sergeants treat us like frens( except during training time). Our OC is a Captain wif 7 years of service experiences. He wanted us to become a thinking & intelligent soldier instead of a garang soldier. OC will always emphasize on how important NS is. Without NS, Singapore is vulnerable to attacks from other countries. No one will defend Singapore except for ourself. Both OC & CSM are providing us wif welfare treatments. For example, CSM will also ask us to stay under the shade to prevent us from being sun-bathe. He will also get even or make a fool out of those Sergeants who treated us bad. Wif all this welfare treatment, my life is easy to get pass.

Until now, we only kana tekan once. The reason: Gt this fucker from platoon 4 who not only wore slippers at the ground level, he also went over to buy cigarette from the canteen uncle... The Suai part is, he is kana caught by the officer instead of a Sergeant.. Tat night, we were all punished like a dog becos of tat fucker... We were told to spread & squeeze, sit & stand, do push-ups & crutches... But surprisingly, the officer come over to apologize to platoon 1,2 & 3 as he knows it's not our fault. From this, today officers is much more better than the past ones.

The fitness & strength trainings are very tough and demanding. Our PTI treats us like dogs. Always pump us, but we know all this demanding treatments is for our own goods. My batch is the enhance batch. Therefore, we are those who passed silver & above... By right, during the IBBT CAT test, all of us should at least get a passed... But amazing, about half of the company(100 something RECs) failed the tests. Whole company, only 2 ppl gt gold. For me, i passed the CAT test... Standing-broad jumps(4pts), Pull-up(3pts), Sit-up(5pts), Shutter-run(5pts) is nothing to me... BUt 2.4km is a big problem for me... Cos i don have the same stamina i had when i'm a Secondary school boy. I gt only 2pts instead of 3pts in order to get a silver. The 3pts timing is 11:40 mins & my timing is 11.51mins... 11 seconds slower... SHIT man!!! But nvm, after 1 week of intense running... I think my timing is under 11.30mins by now... Now, i can breathe more easily & make use of my energy wisely. My target is to get at least a silver for my IBBT... But if can, i hoped to get a gold. The criteria is to get at least 4pts per station & the 2.4km must be under 9.45mins.... My main concern is 2.4km run, other than tat... I think i can make it... Stamina is all i needed the most now!!!

Tat's all for today... Shall post again when i'm free... Need to go Beach Road to get my stuffs leh!!!
