2 weeks into 54th Advanced Section Leader Course (ASLC)
otherwise officially known as 03/09 Professional Term..

Already on the first day we had to have a 5km run.. what a welcome note.. Platoon 1 Section 4.. a.k.a the Melayu section coz 8 out of 13 of the section are malay.. i have irwan back with me in the same bunk and surprise surprise ahmad jumadi from GESS with me too..

1st week..
SOC circuit training.. lectures.. and the highlight of the week was demolition live firing.. freaking loud man.. beats boom boom pow hands down.. lol.. a great experience though..

2nd week..
River crossing.. got sick coz the water entered my ear and i got a throat infection which lead to a slight fever and a blocked/runny nose.. but i still soldiered on.. GPMG technical handling. Freaking monster of weapon.. made to rip apart human flesh. Made to kill. then it's the ever infamous SOC test.. a test that will determine my saturdays and one veto factor off my mind for the next 10 weeks.. i passed though.. but at a very very slow timing.. but the most demoralising part of it all was that it was the first time in my life i slipped off the low rope.. first time in my life..!! i couldn't grip the rope at all with my boots.. the morning dew making the rope wet and slippery.. ended the week with an 8km run..

it's gonna be tiring the next few weeks.. super jammed packed and rushed with field camp after field camp then the ever well-disliked exercise crescendo to thailand..

i'll keep updating as much as i possibly can..

coming week..
section quick attack live firing.. GPMG live firing which will see me booking out early on a saturday morning and COS duty on sunday going to a week of field camp.. gotta get my stuff prepared as much as possible with whatever available time..

been having nice dreams lately.. lol.. keep them coming.. at least these dreams will keep me from losing my mind..
