The Post which is On and Off

Today is SAF day.





It isn't noted on the calender so it's worth mentioning... I guess. I didn't know why this day was created. My sister suggested that it was the day SAF was formed and it was made compulsory for men to serve the nation.

Then, why is it worth celebrating?






Nevertheless, we had to report to Sembawang Camp at 0700hours. 7 o'clock!

I woke up at 5, waited from 6 to 7 until a taxi came. We then sped down the expressways like a fire engine, allowing me to reach Sembawang at 7:30am at a cost of $21 of my personal fortune.

I was late, but no one noticed. Heck they were just starting to fall in! Typical...

There was a small parade which I wasn't required to take part. Finally my excuse RMJ comes to good use. I thought it would be some crazy one, but in the end it was just a short parade. I suppose there was a talk and a moment of silence for the warriors in the past who lived and died for Singapore.





Then it was back to MSET course. Pretty alright for these two days. It's really good to learn more about how to maintain civilian-like (civilian like, because many military vehicles tend to be not the least civilian) vehicles, which will come in handy next time.

Nothing like a man who knows his tools I supppose. LOL

Been sleeping through some of the lessons though. I guess it's the legendary button at the bottom of no.4 pants working once again. Sit on it and any uniformed man sleeps.







Saw this article on MSN, more of a photo gallery actually, on the WAGS (Wives and Girlfriends) of the top footballers of Euro 2008.

Damn, I want to be a footballer too. Haha.







HIGHLIGHT OF THE DAY: I COMPLETED THE 5X5X5 cube! =D
