So... the long waited reservist has finally arrvived and i'm now into the 5th day of that. Think this batch of reservist which comprises of just my batch alone is the most cok up. Only 10 of us!!!! lets see... 5 fit guys for diving, 1 medic diver, my buddy, who cannot dive coz he has not learned a thing or two abt cbc, 1 permernently unfit, who's going to be down graded soon and 3 temporary unfit for diving.. lol... and the best part? cbc needs a minimum of 8 divers to operate!! what to do?? msg poh got 3 guys from 26th batch to be involved in the diving.
The weather has been really good to us. Its been a raining season, however, not whole day but after we had proto up our sets.. the whole week has been just admin, wait, proto up, pool dive, wait, rain, wait, swim, trying to get a tan from the foul weather, book out.. lol... no night dives!!
It been a long time since i ran 2.4km, the last time being 2 months ago before my exams and before i injured myself. so, today, surprisingly i passed the 4 stations: pull up, sit up, standing board jump and shuttle run without much effort. With only the 2.4km, which i need to clock 9.14min to get a diver's gold for the $400, i ran my heart, body, shit out. 2 months of no training is really an obstacle for me not to get gold. by the second round, i'm out of stamina, i cannot run as fast as i can... in the end, i clocked 10.14min. an excess of 1 min!!! Just a case of so near yet so far..
Ashley brought along his 1A curry puffs today for all of us. There's a lot of flavor to the curry puffs. That really surprises me. There are the sardines, curry, black pepper, corn, yam, durian... YES!!! durian!!! Its really delicious..
The sun was so strong this morning and afternoon. Together with Qing Yang and QQ, we laid ourselves under the sun to bake for an hour and a half. Now, my whole face looks like the butt of a monkey!! so red... pain... dry...
Anyway, i received my results. I'm somehow dissapointed with the outcome. But i will strive harder for the next semester, cutting down the no of days that i will be working and increasing the amt of time i will be spending on the studies. I don't want to feel so dissappointed again. Hmm... i did not fail any of my modules by the way.. =p
Next wed, i will be ord-ing for the second time. 5 more cycles to go before ROD!!! Think its better to do the reservist now than later. Do it while we are fit, and finish the cycles fast so it won't disrupt my future career..
=)
