Almost reached the halfway stage, and I'm still sweating it out over my fitness given that the sirs mentioned before that fitness levels will definitely decrease once outfield training starts. So that's going to be a real concern in the upcoming weeks.

IPPT
Improvements in chinups and 2.4km. The rest remained constant, unfortunately. 3 more seconds from a 4 point for 2.4km. Sian =/ Knew I shouldn't have started from the back and get entangled in the mess that followed as everyone in front broke away.

I had a back abrasion after first-aid test the day before (simulated pistol drag while under fire). Sian.. Ended up with a broken belt and torn Admin tee as well. 3SG Yishu was like "woah, look at his!" lol. Hard to see him in a good mood - usually see him tekan-ing his platoon, like on Thurs night when the enhanced batch were at the hardcourt due to stand-by bed errors I think.

Still hurts now when I stretch =/

Enhanced people
I will only blog about the school 1 dudes since they are the only ones that I saw enlisting.

On Thursday after our IPPT we were told to go back to bunk (after cheering on Plt 4 under OC's orders) and not appear outside half-naked because of all the parents (and girlfriends) that descended upon our cluster in luxury buses. C coy's came first as they enlisted earlier. Then after they alighted I realised what all the tents we had set up the day before was for - to shelter them visitors from the training sheds to their company line -.-

After lunch we had FT.. squeezed in a small training shed somewhere behind B coy between two C coy sections checking their stuff. Saw Kaijian and another HC guy there (Jinyao pointed them out), and their coy has so many 2SG.. Lol.

At night after early RO at 1645 and stand-by bed at 1830 some of us OTOT-ed right around D coy who were checking stuff on the hardcourt. Dismantled the two tents our coy set up while some section 1 people went to do OCPT in front of C coy. -.-

On Friday nothing much really happened, except that CPT1 warmup was on the field since the two new companies were having first parades. The field sucks, hate the sandflies that just seem to fly about everywhere. Imagine doing prone roll there..

OC encouraged us to sing bookout song whenever we passed the new companies. And our coy people took it into heart as they sang it from 1400 to 1945 hours (due to staggered bookout times determined by IPPT results).

Evidently they already did more in a day than what we did in our first two or three days. Not called enhanced batch for nothing eh?

Next week would be a rather short week, with half day on Friday. Anyone game for any gathering at night? Since everyone on this island will be booking out for CNY.. except the unlucky duty personnel.

Saw Liuzhen before and after his haircut though. LOL. Honoured to witness such a momentous occasion.. onw which we never thought would come since he was so protective and proud of his black crop (:

Time really does fly! Its been so long since we had chilling sessions at his house, and also the numerous (IRC) pool rendezvouses. Ahhh, miss Hcband a lot! =/

Guard duty
Sentry at TFT is super boring, so try to steer clear of that if your guard duty buddy is someone you don't socialise with often. Other jobs like TFT prowler, Ammo Dump prowler and Rocky Hill sentry are much more interesting than seeing the waves hit the shore in the middle of the night and the Penguin boat crews fishing by the jetty.

Booking in
At 2110 hrs.

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
