range rants

wah.. one week since i last posted.. and i'm supposed to be free.. hehe

the problem with having one whole week of civillian life slouching at home and going out to meet various friends is that, it is SO darn tough to re-adjust back into army life.. it is so tiresome to have to wear no. 4 the whole day and have to stay in cos we needed to wake up early the next day for range.

oh well. aniwez, speaking of range, i'm so glad it's all over liao.. no more the need to fashion the pirate-ish eyepatch everytime before range and get teased over and over, no more incessant worrying and the constant prayers and self-assurances before the shoot, no more frustrations over retarded Figure 11s and 12s not falling when they are supposed to, and yeah, no more hard benches that you are forced to sit on the whole day till you wind up with a backache..

well to tell the truth, range this time was really pretty blissful and nice. first, some people finally had the brains to bring about some backed chairs to sit around with and then the frequent ninja vans kept up satiated and happy. bonus was the Burger King dinner that Waikit got for us.. haha.. that's life sia.. furthermore i was actually secretly pretty pleased with the detailing cos there was no pressure to get marksman or what shit from an "officer's detail" so I just shot to pass.. hee..

aniwez, must really thank God for making range so painless this time.. i remember myself sweating buckets in BMTC over not passing and sick with the idea of having the stay back on saturday for a reshoot, then being completely desolate over the fiendishly difficult ATP during OCS which had me really wondering was that a credible reason for me being an officer - can't run, can't shoot, can't do SOC.. bleah. then came the first combat shoot where I panicked over disappointing the officer's detail if I didn't shoot well and so on so forth...

now it's all over!

better get some sleep liao...
