tdy is totally one of those days where u can say " u've gotta be kidding me... " . on the way back home after booking out, i took the wrong bus zzz. instead of taking the usual 169, i took 969. so at first i was just 15min away from home, then the next thing u know it, i was all the way up a highway with no stops till the end .... which leads to tampines. blame it on my usual habit of either playing with my ipod games or sleeping on the bus even during short trips, missed the stops just before the expressway, din realise i was even on the wrong bus till i felt that the trip was way too long and looked up to find myself entering SLE... can u believe it, i was lucky my grp booked out way earlier than the DB (detention barrack not dragonboat lol) attachment yet i caught the wrong bus and end up reaching home bout the same time as i wld if i booked out ltr.

bah, bout the last couple of days, it was basically on job training at the DB and MPEU (mp enforcement unit) where we were attached to the units for exposure sake. firstly for DB, all i can say is that its claustrophobic. cages everywhere and the overpowering smell of soap mixed with sweat and whatever crap... it gives u the feeling of an animal in the zoo and also the feeling of a cemetry ie. i felt like dying in there within half an hr of entering lol. lets not talk bout the detainees eh... with some staying up to 2yrs. and JW 3yr3mths... anything goes. it was a real eye opener for people like us who have proper homes and families.

as for MPEU, tdy was the first day, where we raided sispec and some ammo supply base. sispec ppl quite sad lah, tdy POP, pack finish everything, then gotta empty all their stuff to be checked... no wonder some ppl hate MPs lol. cant elaborate more in here. but the week was otherwise quite interesting (:


1 more week till we all POP lo! to become 3SG haha. anyone interested in coming? camp's at yew tee btw (:
