back from thailand, away from e sun. now i am a superb tanned ah-pu-ne-ne! i rated myself as one of e most fairest among all army personnels as i am constantly applying sunblock on my body! e rest were not so lucky though!
e bunk in saiyok camp really brought back lots of memories. although it has been 7yrs, i remembered almost every single detail of how e bunk, garage and canteen looked like. its all e same!
compared to 7yrs ago, e fatek which we went through as a reservist now was definitely not so hectic. not too sure if we were already seasoned gunners or painly just immuned, e movement was not as rushing as i initially thought. we have got sufficient rest in e night and hell yes, that's very important to me!! screwed me all you want in e day but give me e night to rest!
next, all deployment grounds were e same - as in we were there years ago and now we were back to e same spot! we were not supposed to post any army-related photos and if you notice, i am posting weather-shots only. and those were really quite nice shots i feel. e only thing was i couldnt show you a decent photo of how fucking hot e weather was! i dunno leh - how to show you guys photos of how fucking hot e weather was??? *shit*
i am no more longer checking on what's e daily temperature like while we were suffering from sunburn in e 9D8N outfield. probably i've already accepted e fact that i couldn't possibly do anything to avoid e (sun) burn even if i know e temperature hit 40deg cel! lan-lan lor...
weather was one thing, fortunately i've got a group of really good mates for accompany throughout these period of incredible outfield. gun-5 was e best and if i need to point out one figure which made my dayz in kanchanaburi, he has to be shortie-steven-lee!! rest assured if he's around, there would definitely be laughter around! *shortie, are you reading my blog here!!*
so what were we doing in e outfield?? while waiting for e fire mission to come in e sun, we did lots of unbelieveable stuffs! like?? catch dragonflies lor.... play with ants lor *ants ants, where are you..*, counting camou-net leafs... doing nails, some of them even suggested we should bring kites along for e outfield!
ninja vans brought us activities too! we would find our ways to get close them to place order for our meals. prices had significantly increased as compared to our first purchased 7yrs ago however thing remained unchanged was... cha-mee and cha-pung were still power lor! could not recall how much i've spent on ninja van but it did rip off some cash from me for sure!
anyway, rain or shine, we were always there waiting for mission!
lastly e R&R was not that fantastic though! e entire itinerary was similar to 7yrs ago, perhaps with little credit to e management team, we were at e death railway museum which i think we've not been before, e rest were e same as 7yrs ago. nothing to shop during our 1hr of R&R!! you got it - just ONE HOUR! anyway im glad that its back to our normal life now. we were there to achieve a good result, and we did it with a recon IIA, there shouldnt be any more outfield in my remaining 3yrs of ICT now. i've did my part in whatever way i can in e best battery... hopefully that's e last one although i do miss hanging around with my mates, especially oversea!
goodbye thailand crescendo, NO REGRET!
