wah shag ah
these 5 precious precious days of holiday! comin to a very quick end. why ohhh why couldn't it be longer! you know i feel so weird reading my own post before i enlisted. it's been a long time and i'm well into BMT now, well actually kinda near the end, so wow it's been quite a blast. i missed everything at home. freedom is a great thing. you never know what you're missing till you're there somewhere annd you have to wait till sat to get out. tahan until so long, and then after this still must see where i get posted to! seems like luck to me, only God knows. everywhere i think of, there are pros and cons, and i can't decide where i would like to go. of course everyone encourages us to try for OCS or SISPEC, but do i really want a life of cheong sua!? camo on every single day! BMT x 5 ?! goin to OCS is like wahh grand sand all but it's not for free. blood sweat and tears, do i want it? on the other hand you could be a Man, but everyone makes being a Man sound so terrible. and yet it depends if you go to a slack unit, then good for you. looks like there's no easy way out of this, but i'll take the challenge if it comes.
anyway SIT test is like at my doorstep, moment holiday's over SIT test IMMEDIATELY. guess that'll play a big part in whether i have OCS potential! haha, heard all sorts of stories about it but there's nothing like experiencing it for yourself. JUST DON'T EVER BE THE MEDIC OR LAW GUY, unless you love great weights pressing you into the ground. wonder how i'll handle the mission when i'm IC. what situation will God put me in? scary sia, just hope i don't blank out and give the tester some dumb look like he's the strangest thing that ever happened to me. after this and IPPT i'll be super duper happy, because there's nothing stress left to do.
i'm gonna try to get gold for IPPT, which seemed out of the question just 2 weeks ago when i was -failing- IPPT cos of pull-ups. after enlisting i was like stuck at 4 pull-ups all the way and wondering what the heck was wrong with me! then suddenly for the IPPT Trial i did 9! wow.... all glory to God! lol i don't know how that could happen. actually 8 la, the ninth not really counted i was like struggling but he gave it to me anyway. to get gold i need 10, and i've been running and doin pull-ups every day of the holidays, and even though i'm still hovering around 9-10, i believe it's muscle fatigue and since i have the next week to recover i will then proceed to do 20 pull-ups on the big day. lol maybe not. but it's a 360 degree turn!from trying to pass the darn pull-ups to going for gold. if it really happens you know who's behind it all =P
