Life couldn't get any better I must say... The life as a signal operator... =DDD

Firstly, the food there is splendid and simply any meal there is like 100000 times better than what I used to had in BMTC...

With a good meal, anything else is seems nicer also though the fact everything is really unbelievably "god-liked"

Is it a blessing? or my destiny that I was really destine to go to signaller school other than OCS or Sispec...

Reason why it is so great:

1) It is not an infantry vocation

2) I am not in IC2 but fortunately I am in IC1 course...

3) ultimate freedom nothing I can ask more...

4) Get to choose to eat Muslims...

5) e-mart break until sianz...

6) Every wed nite out...

7) Ever Friday book out...

8) No out field...

9) Everyday 6.30pm OTOT...

10) No physical training but rather a lot of studying...

11) Can order outsider food as and when we like during OTOT...

12) many many more...

Yeah... it is a blessing...

Signaller... just for slackers like me...

Signallers are better than other non infantry vocation like medic! why?

-Simply because though we get combat pay, we do not have to do road march but rather just drive an unimog vehicle. (only applies to IC1 peeps like me ^_^)

- We do not have to jab ourselves...

IC1 the best of the best! cause we get to learn driving as well as an useful technical skill of signalling... ( driver cum signaller )

We do not have to lay lines or carry manpack to march along with commander. All we do is just drive to the location designated and set up the antenna...

Wahaha... si beh song!

But there are also bad parts...

The lessons are freaking boring and mostly is self-study.

Got 8 course module to complete within 8weeks...

I am the course IC... agrhhh...

Can u believe it... not bunk IC, not platoon IC but course IC...

When falling in in my platoon for my first lunch...

I was fidgeting in the file talking to Ben... when cause the sergent walking towards my direction I faster stay still...

Sergent Tay:" eh... u noh. Ngoh? right? come, come out..."

Me: "huh? me? yes sergent. Yes? "

Sergent Tay:" U... u IC... platoon IC... "

Me: " yes sergent." ( was thinking oh fucking shit...)

My second last lesson of the day before booking out...

Sergent Tay: "So now u all know ur individual roles as different ICs right?"

Platoon: "yes sergent!"

Sergent Tay: " Eh so btw the platoon IC will be change every week."

Me: "yes sergent."

Sergent Tay: " U think what? Not u lar... U course IC, not platoon IC..."

Me: "huh?"

Sergent Tay: " Course IC dun change one only platoon IC change... here take these nominal rolls"

Me: (holy farking shit... agrhhh 1 week IC buay tong liao still course IC...) "yes sergent."

Not easy really though I already know it but I never really expect it to be so challenging especially dealing with mono intake and Pes PB people...

Furthermore I do not know the command well and never become IC before...

They can really dun give a shit about u and live in their own world...

I on the other hand really trying my very best not to get this platoon into any form of trouble or punishments.

Wow...
a new blog?

yup, that's right...

Gees, how long has it been? seen I ever written a post but I guess the feeling just kicks in...

Today's a day before I am posted to my new unit as signaller operator...

I dare say I was really disappointed with my posting but then I really learn to accept fate and destiny that has always been so unfair to me... (though I am really truly very fortunate..)

"BRING IT ON U FREAKING CURSE...", "I WILL ACCEPT UR CHALLENGE..."

Maybe it is just my personality, but I really dun liked to be command by other ppl or call other ppl Sergent or Sir...
So for me to be "men" is really quite disappointing... When I had really worked hard to strive to go command school, to pass IPPT and SOC...

Ah whatever, all because of a freaking medical officer whom because of time constraint refrained me from entering the command sch which i indeed desire so much...

There goes the extra few hundred bucks per month...

Perhaps it is a blessing in disguise, signaller after all is a skill profession and I get to learn knowledge out of it... and they are well treated once they are posted to a unit...

Enough of unhappy stuff lol...
Here are some of the photos which marks my memorable BMT life...
