One down, two extras to go.
this past week was quite sian...it's really no fun booking in on sunday morning. sadly, i'll have to do it again this week in order to bring the extra count down even more.
other than that minor...inconvenience, the week was tolerable, but barely. just routine stuff with a hundredfold increase in stress factor due to auditing. not to mention the 24km route march. to think i was under the impression that i only had to do it once in my NS life. in all fairness, it wasn't THAT bad, but i could certainly do without the resultant aches and pains. luckily we had pre- and post-march sleeping time, so we weren't so fatigued.
actaully, the route march was pretty much the highlight of the week, because i honestly cannot remember much else. maybe it's because i'm trying my best to forget about army stuff when i'm in the civillian world, or i'm just too tired now.
incidentally, today is my one year anniversary in the SAF. it's quite unbelivable that 365 days have passed since i first set foot on tekong and took the "WITH MY LIFE!" oath. but well, it's true, and i'm still here to tell the tale. i'll not talk too much about my experiences/lessons learnt in the army, because i still need to save some material for my end-of-year post. so, readers will be left hanging for the time being.
saturdays are a great source of distraction, happiness, and other non-NS associated stuff. this is especially true when things go your way. like in mahjong, which is turning out to be a semi-regular thing. hopefully, i can keep my winning streak up. so far it's been 2 weeks and counting. won $5 this week. not too bad, but as always, room for more.
i'm actually quite sleepy now. think i'll go off and update again next week, when my block leave starts.
