Fun Moment - Siloso

Well, not exactly the most fun moment of my life but definitely worth remembering. Every 2nd n 4th Saturday of the month will be the day my Secondary School buddies and I enjoy the fantastic rays of sunlight at Siloso Beach and at the same time get a nice and cool Tan-look. Recently some of my NS buddies even joined in to our "Siloso Session". Well, most of the time we juz go there n chill, play some football, volleyball (although we suck at it), frisbee and most importantly checking out the ladies there (i definitely won't deny that) =) Our recent meet-up at Siloso was definitely the most eventful one... For the first time, we actually get to play some ball games with some ladies at Siloso, all thanks to Tao You ( I m saluting u now even at this very moment while typing all this) who recently got his balls enlarged after the......... We had a great time playing with the ladies until we were interrupted by a group of guys who wanted to join in to our games. We enjoyed even more after Ewin n accompany joined in, we were able to engage in much more challenging games like Captain's Ball as we got more players now. Definitely hope that such things happen more often in our future visit to Siloso =)

Great Moment - ORD

ORD Function was definitely one of those great moment. Thats the day we officially say goodbye to all those sucky food in the canteen which was catered by SFI (Singapore Food Industry), no more field camps, which also mean no more sleeping with Commando Mosquito and last but not least, welcome FREEDOM back to my life!!!!! The function was held in some country club which i can't remember exactly where, all i remember was, FREE FLOW of BEER!!!! That night was the night where almost all my platoon mate was drunk, including myself of course Haha.
We were so drunk until at the end of the function, we couldn't locate the toilet and we just pee right outside the country club. Imagine witnessing 8 guys standing side by side n pee right in front of the Country Club's sign where pedestrian had perfect vision of whats' kept beneath those Jeans that we're trying to hide all these years.... O.O Now thats what i call a Glamorous Sight *shame* *shame*

Worst Moment of My Life Part.2

2nd year of my NS time was the actual worst moment of my life so far. I miss fired a real 5.56mm round and it almost hit one of my platoon mate. Imagine if that round were to pierce thru his body, seriously i dun know what i gonna say to his parents... But luckily, that didn't happen. And for that incident, i had to serve 14 days SOL (Suspension Of Leave) which means i have to stay inside the camp for the whole 14 days not allowing to book out even on weekends. This was just the beginning... About a month later, a few days before my trip to India for a 2 weeks training, my buddy and i was caught slacking while doing Guard Duty. And for that, i had to serve 21 days SOL -___- As if 35 days of SOL were not enough, 2 months later i miss fired AGAIN at a FIBUA (Fighting In Build Up Area) training. And again, i served another 14 torturous days of SOL........ No words can justify how much stress i was experiencing at that point of time. Even till this day, I'm quite curious how on earth i managed to survived my 2nd year, maybe its the encouragement that i was showered with by my Platoon mates and commanders, especially my Platoon Sergent, 1st.SGT Raju.

Worst Moment of My Life Part.1

Well, its gotta be the 2 years in ARMY of course. 1st year was pretty smooth, with standard stuff like BMT, Training Course, lots of field camps and btw field camp is really no joke, imagine moving around the jungle from morning to night carrying more than 10kg of stuff with sucky food to answer the call of your stomach, a few mins of rest to ease the pain from your sored-feet and aching body. The best part... you have to do all these for a minimum of 3 days 2 nights WITHOUT showering or bathing, only allowed to powder yourself to stop the itch and covering the smell. And so, my 1st year passed by without any major incident...
