Into the Jungle

Hey guys~ I will be spending 6 days in jungle for Field Camp this coming week. Will be from this coming friday till wednesday. So I won't be seen in church next weekend!

Am feeling kinda apprehensive over the field camp coming up. Thinking of what stupid mistakes we'll do like talk/move in file, moving from one place to another too slowly, and we all getting punished for that is quite frustrating in some ways. So wake up guys!! Don't get ourselves tortured for small mistakes!!

BMT phase has started for 1 week. The schedule is generally quite tight and I can see ourselves running here and there for training for the next few weeks. The past one week has been physically & mentally draining somehow. Really need God's grace & strength in all aspects. Army has showed me how weak & small I am, thank God I always feel the peace with me when I'm in camp.

Gotta have dinner soon & pack up to go. Please pray for my safety and ability to endure the upcoming training in army and in the jungle.=)

PBS

I'm now suffering from PBS, Pre-Book in Syndrom! Just feel sian, sleepy and really want to just lie here at home for the rest of tonight. Thinking that I will be falling in at pasir ris in uniform and field pack in 2hours time just make the feeling stronger. Oh well, enjoy the moment at home for now. Let's pray the upcoming week is blessed and wonderful!=)

my botak life

hey guys! I'm leading a botak life now. I'm now Tall, Dark, but not handsome! Let's update some basic stuff about me in army.

I'm in Raven company. Platoon 4 (gosh, 5th level-_-"). Section 2, Bed 10. Toilet Cleaner, Waterpoint IC. Name of our platoon - Penguin! (sounds garang huh?wahaha)

Basically everything has been well. Though training can be straining physically & mentally, life in army is a spiritual warfare. Everyday surrounded by vulgarities, dirty jokes at times, suppressing frustrations during scoldings due to other people's mistakes and talking on phone can be so much more attractive than reading my quiet time materials sometimes.

Thank God for a supportive christian buddy, for time to pray to Him any single time, for a co-operative section, for me haven't spoken any vulgarities, for me haven't submitting to any of the dirty jokes, for strength everyday to tahan the trainings & scoldings, and for peace in me whenever I thought of Him.

I know where I am now is where God intended me to be. Build me, mould me and let me grow into a man He wants me to be. Like my dad says, this is a good turning point of my life. I'm sure this 2years will be worthwhile.=)

This is just the start of my journey.
