DHS Chalet + DSTA Scholarship

Had DSTA scholarship round 1 interview at 12.40pm on Thursday, then rushed to meet WQ, Justin and Jun Kiak at Costa Sands Burger King for lunch at 2pm. After that we checked in and slacked till people started coming..

We then played poker, barbecue, mahjong, mahjong, mahjong, mahjong, then check out.. Half way through my first mahjong game, I got a phonecall from DSTA saying I got through and I have a 2nd round of interview the next day at 1.45pm. Wth.. Oh well.. We also had midnight captain's ball. It was quite retarded.. Everything was so dark and everyone's silhouette looked the same. Rofl.. But it was fun XD

In the end, I slept for like only 2~3hours.. Then I rushed home to wash up and change before rushing for the 2nd round of interview.. Yu Hui said its a group discussion and I'll totally die if I don't have any kind of information. That freaked me out so much I actually tried to read up on defence news during that short 30minutes I spent at home..

Guess what? It wasn't even a proper interview. It was more of a situation test... that lasted 4 hours -.-" But I find it pretty fun though. Hehe.

Race to Which Mountain?

Pretty good show. Always liked shows where people have extraordinary powers, makes you have fantasies (not in the sexual way la -.-), only that in this one they ain't human. Oh well.

Pokemon?

Saw some kiddo wearing a pokemon shirt and it reminded me of one of the songs we edited during our Cougar skit..

Pokemon Theme Song (Original)

I wanna be the very best
Like no one ever was
To catch them is my real test
To train them is my cause
I will travel across the land
Searching far and wide
Each Pokemon to understand
The power that's inside

Chorus
Pokemon!
Got to catch them all "Echo: It's you and me"
I know it's my destiny
Pokemon!
Ooh, you're my best friend
In a world we must defend
Pokemon!
Our hearts so true
Our courage will pull us through
You teach me and I'll teach you
Pokemon
Gotta catch 'em all!
Gotta catch 'em all!
Pokemon!

IPPT (Pokemon edited)

I wanna be the very best
Like no one ever was
To pull up is my real test
To jump far is my cause
I will run across the island (<-- refering to Tekong)
Training two point four (2.4)
Every station I come to face
The problem that's inside

Chorus
SBJ!
Gonna jump damn far! "Echo: It's 216"
I know it's my destiny
Pull up bar!
Ooh, you are not my friend
Its so hard to do just 6
Shuttle run!
Gonna turn round fast
Why can't I get 6 points from you?
Don't forget there's sit-up and there's
two point four (2.4)
Gotta train 'em all!
Gotta train 'em all!
IPPT!

POP Loh...?

POP-ed yesterday and spent the whole day sleeping away to make up for the 1hour of sleep I had before the 24km route march and the immediate Passing Out Parade right after.

The 24km route march was pretty interesting.
Before we commenced the march off, I asked a Gryphon sergeant..

Me: "Hey sergeant, what's in the field pack? How come you all managed to fit everything inside your field pack without having it bulging?"
Serg: "Er.. The standard 10pack items less the store items, which means only 6 packs lor."
Me: "Really? I thought we had to carry our whole cupboard items along as we ain't going back to our bunks after the march..."
Serg: "Eh? Since when? We left our non-6 packs items at the company office. Anyway our office is just over there what.." *Points to G Coy*
Me: "Wah.. So welfare ar.."
Serg: "Welfare? Where got.. Its standard la."
Me: "....." *walks away*

And its true! Most of us got pissed at the marching pace and the "OMG GOT PUDDLE LETS DODGE IT, and end up making the others behind halt" of the companies in front leading. No wonder we keep hearing from our commanders that Cougar always buay tahan 24km march. I heard the previous batches overtook all the companies in front and even ended at the end point like 10min before the next company marched in -.-"

Towards the last 2 checkpoints everyone were like walking zombies (me at least >.<). I was like just moving forward. My head was blank from lack of sleep and I was just using my eyes and legs to follow the field pack of the guy in front of me. Not to mention our more-than-extra-weight field packs causing numbness to both my shoulders, which ended up with me using my hands to carry the weight off my shoulder throughout the march.

And oh, it was fun too. We had karaoke sessions at the back of our platoon. It was like KTV Mobile or Human IPod, whatever name you prefer. We spammed singing songs we can remember lyrics of off our heads and everyone who knew will just join in. It was the only method that was able to keep me awake and turn off zombie mode XD

After the march was the parade which was quite lame as well, because there was one part at the start where we rest for like 1hr before we march into the parade square and scam our parents that we just finished our route march, and we're doing our cooling down exercises now before we start the parade proper. And guess what, we were camping just behind the trees whereby we can see through and see our parents sitting. Oh well.

So.. I'm no longer a recruit, neither are my fellow coy mates. We're all privates. Now what? Posting to another unit after a block leave of around 10days. Why don't I feel anything, unlike everyone else who is like "OMG POP LOH POP LOH POP LOHHHHHHHHHHH..."

Maybe I'm weird =\
