My Army VocationFriday 18 December 2009
Yeah! I'm no longer a Recruit anymore, just passed out of my basic military training on December 9. I have been posted to Medical Training Institute at Nee Soon Camp as a Combat Medic. Which means my rank will remain as Private for quite some time. Oh well, I don't know what kind of shit will I go through for months to come. One thing for sure is on top of carrying the usual field pack load (15kg), I will still have to carry a stretcher and medical equipments for route marches and outfields. Sigh.
I'm so disappointed in myself because I always hoped I could get into SISPEC and pass out as a 3rd Sergeant but I failed to achieve it. Oh well, what I can do now is to do my best and hopefully I will perform much better this time round. I will learn basic medical and life saving knowledge. I hope it can be useful to me in the near future! I strongly believe I will survive and grow physically and mentally stronger after my 2 years in army.
Congrats to Eric and Samuel for getting into OCS and the rest of my bunk mates for getting into SISPEC! I will always remember Gryphon Platoon 1 Section 2! I will miss every single one of you! Cheers!

Hmmm.. On the second thought, I'm wondering if I should "chao keng"? Cause I really hate my vocation! Path 1 is try my best, chiong all the way and hope that the things that I'm going to learn will be useful. Path 2 is chao keng all the way and down PES to get the hell out of this idiotic vocation! I'll must make a decision soon! Haiz.. Sad life. :(
