Goodbye Foxtrot, Goodbye SAFTI.
People say this blog stale already! No choice ah. Army computer cannot use to blog. Later kena caught by MSD den good game already!
Well finally reached the end of a 14-week ordeal. Service Term ended with a overnight route march. And as usual all OCS ceremonies like to have abstract inklings to it. This time round we were brought up to the highest point in Western Singapore, overlooking the industrial area. There, in the blizzing morning freeze, we were presented with our postings and our senior bar.
So I've been posted to Combat Engineers! Not my first choice posting, but its great anyway cause Engineer Training Institute is at Nee Soon camp, which is 15 mins away from home! This is in comparison to SAFTI, which is 80 mins away by train!. Ain't no coincidence baby! How else can life get better?
So anyway, in the midst of being desperate for sleep, we were told to pack immediately for Brunei; and we're flying in 4 days. What a surprise farewell gift. It was almost mission impossible to squeeze all those items into the luggage, but we did it (after many ardous hours of hard work). Off it goes to cargo complex!
Well the last day at Foxtrot was not easy. Bidding goodbye to a home of 14 weeks brought back many memories of the undulating journey i took to get here. Saying farewell to the Infantry stayers was harder than i thought it would be. In the end, we sang the OCS song for the last time as we marched away from wingline, leaving people like Elton, Jun Hao, Glenn, Thommy, Yi Rui and Hassan. Emotional sia...
Life in CE better be good... Im not in the least prepared to fly to Bruinei on such short notice. But oh well, this is the army... Suck thumb and do only...
So im out for the rest of the week in prep for brunei. Signals crash course at Stagmont tmr. In the meantime, on a rare wednesday night out, let me entertain you guys with a video of a dance that is sweeping asia by storm.
