I'm burnt to a crisp after 4 days of parade rehearsals. It's finally over for me but not for my other course mates involved in SAF Day Parade. Gee, I thought it would be great if one day off can be granted for the effort we given in.
Had an early Father's Day celebration on Friday with my family at Mooi Chin Restaurant. The Hainanese fare they served is great and authentic. My parents have nothing but praises. We moved away from the usual order of Hainanese chicken, in fact, Singapore's Hainanese chicken is far from the real stuff.

Run, swim, parade.
Yet another 'life in unit' post. Gee.
Last friday I had DAG LIFE run at East Coast Park, it was a 5km run with participants from units under Divisional Air Defence Group.
I haven't been running such distance since my training days in School of Infantry Specialists (SISPEC), but I hold up pretty well. Had breakfast with ex-coursemates and later headed for a swim. Exercising has this 'feels good' effect on me, gee.
Attended James' commissioning parade on Saturday with Ivan, ha, reminds me of my passing out parade back in Tekong, albeit less glamour. Ran into a couple of friends, ex-coursemates from SISPEC, secondary school friends, and poly friends. Abel and Eng Kee were there too. I still remember we were so crazy back then, ha. Took a few photos with sir, 2LT James.
Next week will be the start of BOS (Battalion Orderly Sergeant) duty, gonna see most of my saturdays or sundays 'burnt' staying in camp, idling (No kidding).

emotionally weak
I'm leading a monotonous life in camp. I like a desk-bound job, but not in the army context. People here do not have good work ethics and I have a feeling I will be corrupted in the long run. I am going to plan out a schedule to keep myself fit, a 2.4km run twice every week and sweating it out in the unit's gym on every wednesday, our unit's sports and games day.
James commissioning this week, will be at SAFTI to grace his commissioning parade. Sir, permission to take picture with you? :)
