back frm hell, finally settled down and can update wat happend in the past month.
Went to Australia for excercise Wallaby 05, took SQ flight to Rockhemton. 7 Hrs , can die manz, although SQ got movie to watch, songs to listen , game etc, it is still unbearable for me to sit down for 7hrs plus. When we reached the Rockhemton airport, we took another 2hrs bus to our SAF training ground. It was a different view, long,wide and quiet roads, No high rise building, forest. I still tot it was a nice place to be at, but later did i know wat was waiting for us ahead.....
Once we reached our base camp at sammuel hill, we were to changed to No.4 and start to work liaoz, we slp in a tent that can hold 14 man, we are given safari bed = big stretcher. The weather was hot in the day n beri cold in the nite. Dry and beri dusty. Still not too bad frm wat i imagined b4 i reached there. Every1 started working like crazy liaoz, so much to do. No 1 knows wat time to knock, infect we almost worked overnite everyday til 4am, and start work 8am the following day.it was a drastic change of the working style in spore and there. I learnt to be dirty, like those mechcanic, hands wif hydraulic oils, clothes are never clean, sit on practically anywhere. the more dirty u looked, it means the more work u had done... only those officers are always clean, wearing mask to walk around, eat wif clean hands.ahahah.....no contribution to the SAF...
Time for out field, there, i saw alot of shooting stars... shooting stars at there is beri common. Saw 4 of them, and made 4 wishes but none of them is for myself 1. heehee... 1st time i see the nite wif so many stars and i really mean sooooooooo many stars, almost the whole sky is filled wif them. Only during last few days then i saw kangeroos, so cute lah them...and alot of wild parrots, the white type. Plus i saw a tornado, that starts spinning frm the dusty ground, almost 3 storey high. interesting. and of cause i knew and made alot of friends, sm of them are wierd, but most of them are beri beri nice even though i am different vocation as them.
There i learnt to appreciate many many things that i had, friends, family, material possesion. Everybody start to miss home, friends, gf, etc. Food and drinks also. Beer is cheaper then coke there, a coke can easily cost around S$2 or more. Family complained that i didnt call home, in fact i only called home once.wahahah........waiting for my hp bill. shouldnt cost anything less then $150? made quite a number of calls and quite a number of sms, hmmm...............but i still find that it is worth it. =) strange, felt rechared, energized to work again after calling her .
No pics yet, will write more when i have the time, so far for now just read what i had written.ahahah
