My Days in Tekong.Aug 1
Went in without much of a few, early in the morning my dad fetch my mum, my 2nd bro and me to Pasir Ris Interchange there while we wait for the bus, thereafter boarding the bus to Changi Ferry Terminal and going to Tekong Island.
After a greeting from our 3rd Sergent and stuff like that, went over to the Main Auditorium to listen to (I don't know) whatever his called, follow my a lunch break before my parent went off.
Felt uncertain anyway, because I would be inside for 18 days, which is consider long for most of us already. After getting on with grabbing our Fieldpack and "Tuffle" Bag, we went to check on our items, follow by testing the size of them. There-after, we know our bunk and stuff, followed by the long exchanging of equipment size and cutting of hair.
Had my 1st dinner there, then continue the long chain of time wasting stuff, had our (R)outine (O)rders, and a water parade, the 1st day went by.
Aug 2
Woke up as early as 5am in the morning, wash-up, and went down to hear on the 5BX, but the funny part is that we skipped it, and after our water parade, we had our breakfast.
After that, it's talk again, on some matters, follow by the exchanging of items for those who hadn't complete it on day 1, and went for our lunch.
With that, we went to listen to another talk by our OC, pratically Captain, and had some time off until RO, before we went to sleep again.
Aug 3
Another boring day, morning woke up follow by water parade and talks follow by breakfast and continue listening to talk.
There after we started our 1st time drills, in learning some basic command, and lunch again, since the lunch time is as early as 11am.
Finished lunch and went to talk again, (Does Pes C9 have a lot of talks?) Then relax a bit before going for dinner, due to the fact that Muslim had to Break Fast after our dinner, we always had some time off, so do nothing follow by going for RO, there about I went for a smoke break, which is practically the time when I started to make friends. Of course, with that, the bed is calling me.
Aug 4
At the 4th day, this is the 1st time we started our 5BX, that's cool, and had our breakfast so on and forth.
Continue on we went to watch movie, I forgot what's the title, and went for our lunch, and continue the movie again, but most of the time I sleeping. If I didn't forget, I think it's because our commanders had something on and thus leaving the whole company with only 1 or 2 Sergent, that's why we watched movie like nobody business.
After we had our dinner, it's our 1st time we had our Stand by Bed, and of course, things were flying in the bunk but luckily not all about, I think that's a norm seriously, there won't be perfection anywhere. with that done, we had our RO and our very 1st OTOT also. Which practically quite a number from my platoon went for a job or things like that, it's really enjoyable. With that playing around while jogging, went to bathe and sleep.
Aug 5
As per normal, we had our 5BX, but before that, because people fall in late, we were tekan. :( Follow by going for our breakfast, and went for movie + lunch + movie spree again, that's crazy huh!
There-after we learn how to fold our Smart 4, Tie our boots and stuff like that, then it's time for us to change into it, and do drills with it.
After that is a rest since we were all burning hot under the sun, then dinner --> RO --> Sleep.
Aug 6
Wake up --> Water Parade --> 5BX --> Breakfast as per normal. After a cig, went to find our MO because I'm SICK! Then went for lunch follow by listening to talk, and some rest time before RO and sleep. Simple day!
(By this date I almost everyday went over to other bunk to chit-chat till late before went to sleep.)
(Know quite a number of smoker friend in the company liao, not just platoon.)
(Everyday we can had 4 Cigg)
Aug 7
Woke up but still tired, guess I'm already custom to the bed already. Do the same old shet again. And we had our 1st Aerobatic Conditioning(AC).
It consist of a series of Warm-up, a brisk walk session, and a series of Cool-down, and oh please, the warm-up + cool-down can kill people, it took up tooooooooooooooo much time.
Changed to Smart 4 and went for our lunch, because of some rules, and change back to Admin and went for our 1st FAD talk. After that is resting time. =D
*Went Toilet, saw David, then chat chat abit, went to disturb Daryl, Louis and Yu Xiong. The funny part whereby Louis get Yu Xiong is to knock hard on his bed and shout "Stand by Bed" which also woke up every single 1 in my bunk. (As usual, people hate and worry about Stand by bed or Stand by area)*
There after dinner, follow by smoking and David spon, because ours is finished. Then saw SGT came in, so chat with him abit, and go for RO, follow by a series of check on our Fieldpack item and Smart 4, and sleep.
Aug 8

And because we were standing right infront of the stage + I'm the 1 standing at the 1st row, I can't move. and it was hell man. Stood there like a statue for quite some time, before we are able to move off which is a relieved for E-V-E-R-Y-O-N-E of us. directly after that we went to learn to do CPR and AED and go for lunch. Follow by going to listen talk on heat injuries and getting our CPR Cert.

Aug 9
Fun day due to the fact it's National Day.
Do stuff as per normal in the morning, and had our 2nd AC, followed by playing Capt Ball as our (Games) session. At the end is the top winning platoon versus-ing our commanders, which still, we WON! Went to rest and lunch and rest again while waiting for our canteen break. Went there though it's closed, but the tibits stored is open! So I purchase quite a lot of stuff.
*Funny Incident, I was chatting with the store auntie about some stuff, then we got to go, so the auntie say -Thank you Ah Boy- My SGT heard it and he say -WTF, the auntie pak jiao ah, called a guy that is older then me Ah Boy- And the next thing was, the drinks in my mouth flew over my SGT body because I just can't stop laughing at that joke, luckily, his a good guy, and consider a good friend, so nothing happen to me.*
Went back relax abit, go listen talk again, dinner, then went to watch NDP in the LT with the whole company and the commanders. Finished everything we rested awhile and went to sleep.
Aug 10
I will dis-regard the beginning of the day from now. We had our Games again, this time Dodge Ball. and had the same thing also. there after we went to listen to Safra Talk and obviously, I think everyone signed up for it. Then we went for lunch and went to listen to Safety Talk.
Rest awhile, went to learn new drills and keel failing because I think too much. Then after when I joined the rest, Fabian ask me why my face looks so angry, I said nothing. I wasn't angry with him or what, it's just that I can't hear the command clearly and it's making me pek cek.
Anyway after that we went for dinner, change to admin and go RO, OTOT but I didn't do anything anymore, went to gym to blow air-con and chat with friends + SGT. Went back bathe and stuff, sleep.

Then we had another talk again, followed by lunch. After our smoke break, went to company room enjoy abit, and had our Stand by Area, followed by a lame drug talk. Continue on for some Forming up stuff, and went to get our riffle at the DON'T KNOW WHERE.

Woke up early, and slowly do my stuff because I still had some time, but suddenly my SGT changed the initial RO again, so people were late, but luckily only fuck awhile, adn went back to take down our tent, eat and camo up.
Fall in and learn the rest of the stuff, draw card, walk and observe trails, and watching people do stuff.
Then we had our lunch from the cookhouse, and those who finished the whole Fieldcamp went back 1st, those who hadn't had a special things to do to accomodate to us for whatever they had learn, so had to stay back and complete the course.
Finished everything, went back to shit and clean riffle and what-ever there is to clean, then clean up abit, went for dinner. Finish with a smoke and unpacking of stuff, went to LT slack abit and went to return riffle, follow by RO, Bathe and Sleep.
(On the 22 Aug after breakfast until 23 Aug before the cookhouse lunch, I only had 1/4 of the combat ration, and 3 slice of biscuit, so from 22 6am to 23 1pm I only had 3 breads, 1 egg, 1 hot dog, 1/4 ration, 3 biscuit)
(On the 22 night I already wants to shit, but the place for shitting at that place is, CMI, so I LUN all the way until 23 5+pm before going back to bombard the whole toilet bowl, it sucks.)

Was quite frustrated in the 1st place because alot of things cock up, but luckily, things are solved pretty quickly, and I went to bathe and stuff, and went to the company orom to rest while listening to Daryl and Gofry playing the guitar, they are good.
Awhile later the 1st batch of thrower came back, and around 3 everyone's back. Had to change to Smart 4 and went to the I Don't Know what place to take our platoon picture.
