Life's not a bore. Army life is.

Hello folks! Yeah, it's a Wednesday and here I am, in the comfort of my own room, typing this entry, regardless of how redundant this entry might be. Heck. Haha, it's not every time that I get to book out for an "off". Yea, it was a surprise "off" given to me. Since earlier we had our weekend burnt due to guard duty at Safti, this is meant to be a pay back.

Just went to the JW Sports Complex gym near my house. I kinda liked how spacious the place is. And the thing that separates that from the rest of the neighbourhood gyms is that this particular one has a section dedicated to the females. All the medicine balls and treadmills and whatever. I seldom or perhaps never use the treadmills. I'd rather take a run outside and have a good sweat. Anyway, my section mates are now mad about trying to buff themselves up and build some Arnold body. I think it has become such an obsession that you can term it "Buliemia". Hahaha. But well, it's good since that can spur me on too. Hopefully I can manage to clinch another GOLD for my IPPT the next round.

Ooh, and I just got my pay for this month! With an added 200 bucks bonus for getting GOLD for my IPPT. I'm really tempted to splurge but I know I need to learn to exercise self control. Haha. But seriously, there are so many things I want to buy! Ahh. Haha. I think I need to ration my cash, if not it will soon be over before the next pay comes. It's just pathetic how little our pay is. Damn, even recruits nowadays get $450. Back then, we were only getting $350!

Ahh, why am I talking about army? But I can't help it, since my life revolves much about army now. It's just disconcerting to know that there are so many more exciting things waiting for me out there. And it just amuses me when I heard from some of my friends who have already got back their pink IC that they are getting bored with their life! What can be more boring than army?! It can be that slack that I practically eat and sleep the whole day coupled with some random PT. It's turning me off.

Ok, bad news, the outfield sessions are back. I'm gonna learn how to embrace the sunlight again. Oh, and the hustle and bustle and rustle of the field climate.

And the weekends are definitely beckoning me to look forward to them!

R u referring to me when u said other s were feeling bored? :P

U arent wrong to say that but I guess the grass is greener on the other pasture. Or it could just be that I duno what to do with my life.

Its inevitable to talk about army once u are inside since thats what u are closest to. Things will change de la.

Outfields are sian but since u all have been thru so much le, this round will not be as shag de
