Today is the first day of the Chinese New Year.. Hehe~! Thanks to this holiday i dun have to go back to camp tonite and in fact, i'm only going back on Tuesday night because of its extra 2 days of holiday.. Just that i didn't have enough sleep as i slept at 6am last nite after coming back from HIGH with a group of frens.. Had steamboat for the past 2 days with my family and its kind of scary coz i dun wanna get myself to gain weight.. Well, i guess it didn'thappen.. hEHE~!
I finished 5 weeks of fire fighting training and heard that after the holidays, things aren't going to get easy now.. Better be prepared for the worse as i do not know wads gonna happen.. Time has passed really quick i guess, and its been about 2 months since i enlisted into NS.. Next week my ex-platoon mates are going to pass out and go on for their vocational training.. They should be very happy by then.. heHE~! Finally the new Naruto series is out.. Naruto Shippuuden! The characters in the show have all grown up after 220 episodes of Naruto.. They are starting back from episode 1 again as a new beginning is about to unfold.. Looking forward to see more episode in the future..
Tommorrow frens would be coming over my house for the Lunar New Year.. I wonder how many would come as the numbers are not confirmed yet.. Well, just got to see it when it comes tml.. Ciaoz! HAPPY NEW YEAR~!
Characters of Nauto

A Stressed Week
*sigh*.. The weekends pass so fast as usual.. Tonite i'm going back to camp already.. Feels like the weekend is not long enough, but well at least there is something to look forward next week.. Its Chinese New Year so i'm gonna have an extra 2 days off.. :3~!
The whole week was kind of stressed up in camp.. When i went back to camp on Sunday, the next day we already had some stupid problems caused by other Rota(Platoon).. Someone was caught smoking and my Sir almost got the whole FFC(Fire-Fighter Course) to be confined on the weekends.. Its the first day of the week and its kind of unlucky to hear this kind of thing.. Such a demoralizing start for the week.. The next day went to Mandai Training Village for training.. That placed is like almost demolished but the place is now only used for training purpose.. Heard from my instructor that the place used to be the SAF(Singapore Armed Forces), then it was passed down to SPF(Singapore Police Force) and then to us SCDF(Singapore Civil Defence Force).. Nice history :P~! We were there for the whole day though.. From morning til evening and i was shagged when i went back to camp..
But it was fun, the whole training was actually called "WET".. And its really wet! We were training on stuff that includes water spraying.. And yeah, so we ended up spraying at each other.. -_-~! Well, accuracy and pressure was sort of part of the training.. So i sprayed at one guy and he called for backup.. lOl~! Ended up three of them spraying water at me while i lost control of my hose.. hehE~! Wednesday and Thursday was as usual.. Learning new stuff and training in camp.. Friday was kind of sad for me though.. IPPT was on that day and i failed again because of my chin-ups.. Kind of pathetic but my other stations i could easily get a Gold or Silver, but because of chin-up, i failed everything.. I just can't do a proper one for some reason or the PTI(Physical Training Instructor) just won't give me face as i see the other who gave chances to others :(... Sad, although it was book out day, it wasn't satisfying for me.. Didn't book out with a pleasant heart.. Been training hard and still training.. Hope everything will pay off at the end of the day..
Yesterday went out with my group of frens to town area to buy clothes for the upcoming Chinese New Year.. Cedric was sick and because of that, the whole outing was kind of grumpy because without thinking, he just insults everyone in a straight forward manner.. Well, can't blame him as he was really having a high fever.. Alex had to go back to camp in the night so we didn't stay long in the public.. Haiz~! If he didn't have to go back camp, we could have all spent more time together..
But anyways, its good that i got to see them.. Can relieve stress alot or sometimes give me other stress~! -_-~! 4 weeks have passed since i'm in FFC.. Things is going to get tougher and still training.. Just hope that everything i do pays off at the end of the day..

A Smooth Week
First thing that i can say here.. I'm still freaking tired and sleepy.. Basically i dun have enough sleep when i'm in camp and everybody else too.. Woke up this morning at about 10.30am and slept last nite at about the same time, still i'm as sleepy as ever.. HeHE~! The past week's training was kind of fun and interesting.. I finally got to spray water yesterday after 3 weeks in the course O_o! It was fun!
But never expected that it was not easy just by controlling its aiming.. Pressure was strong and actually its a 2 man job just by holding the part where the water comes out.. 1 man has to control the nozzle from going out of control and the other standing behind giving body support and carrying the hose for better control.. O_o! It was tough but eventually it was fun.. I had 2 frens doing the spraying while they suddenly got out of control and turned 360 degrees and sprayed at all of us, including the instructors that was standing behind watching them.. Lol~! Sadly yesterday i sprained my left arm near my shoulder.. Until now it still hurts and its aching sensation got me into a very "jelly" feeling.. On Monday was kind of shocking, suddenly a weekly test just came out for us and i was like... "Oh i'm so dead"... I didn't even know that there was a test and didn't study for it.. Until now i do not know the results but hoping somehow i can get through it... hEHE~! Tuesday and Thursday was sort of a "relax" day where most of the time we were in the classroom.. We were learning all about CPR and had tests for it.. I guess everyone made it through though.. Coz we only knew about our practical results but not the theory.. Wednesday was the best! Haha!~... We all started to wear the full gear set of the fire fighter suit including the face mask for us to breath with its air cylinder(oxygen tank) on our backs... And after that we went into sort of a maze which is of total darkness.. Its a 4 man team and communications is the key when u are inside.. For my group we only had 3 man because we were short of people.. loL~! There were lots of obstacles that's why communication was important..
In the end i treated it like some sort of a playground as its about 1 and a half storeys high i think.. But i really had fun after that.. Heard there will be a second round some other time with the place filled with smoke.. O_o~! hehe~! Its kind of a fun week and everything went smoothly.. But still tired as ever! :)
Fire fighter helmets! Each could cost up to $500 to $700.. Wasted, one of the helmet's crest is missing! T_T
