POP LOH! ...

3 months ago I was still wondering how will my NS life be like.. Many tots filled my mind and soon in a blink of an eye, everything was over and I had successfully pass out from my BMT!

Vigorous exercises, field camp, sitest, Live rifle range, Live hand-grenade throw, shell-scrape digging, 24km route march, IPPT, SOC run-down, drill competition and etc ... Its all ended. Had our last lunch at Tekong with Nasi Lemak set. This reminded me of my first meal that I had when I first came over to Tekong, just that now my hair was shaved and I'm eating in my smartest 4 than to my civilian clothes, a combat-fitted soldier with all the necessary basic military knowledge than to one who's mind was filled with all the what's in-store for me.

Had many rehearsals to prepare ourselves for the passing out parade. When the actual parade come, things happened very fast and everyone seems to be in a rush to get out of the island. Didn't have much opportunity to go around taking photos with the others in the platoon as I was accompanying my mum cos she attended my parade alone. But still, managed to take a few of these ...

3 months in Tekong had certainly passed by very fast, now I'm awaiting to know my posting and hoping for the best for the next phase of my life in NS.
