With literally 4-and-a-half months to go before i fully served my National Service liability (serving the country), i initially expect life to be more relaxed, filled with unlimited off-days and less- demanding tasks. :)

So imagine my surprise when i check the upcoming schedule for the months ahead leading to ORD; it's worse than i could foresee. Not to mention the unreasonable amount of weekend duties they throw on me, i had to fulfill certain challenging tasks. Life is so unfair when especially you're in the army. You stay in camp for 5days in a row, and only get to bookout on weekends, which consists of saturdays and half of sundays. Now its more suckier than that; they expect u to bookout later on saturday mornings and book in earlier on sundays! What? Are they even human? Ive got a family, friends, and a girlfriend to spent time with, and they dont give a shit bout it. :<

Whatahell, ive been enduring this, cos ive missed tons of plans (i missed chalet gatherings, bbq, vacations) thanks to army! Disgusting! Absurd! Apalling! I feel like filling up this blog with every adjective/vocab that i could think of. And army pay sucks, big time! You've paid 600plus bucks for suffering in camp 5days a week, with the prospect of outfield camping in horrendously scary jungles such as tekong and not to mention the discipline/regimentation and lack of free time involved! Mix abit of army politics and there you have it; the perfect worst-paid job that you could ever imagine! :(

Compare to those in civil defence and the police force which has relatively higher pay, better welfare and more off-days/leave and you'll get what i mean. :(

So is the government trying to say that the Army is pale in comparison to the Home Team?
We in green sweat out tears and blood, got covered by grime and dirt, and spent most of our two years in camp doing nothing but the same ol' boring routine over, and over again...and the pay still suck.

Just 4and-a-half months yan, just tahan and then you could kiss army ass goodbye! x)

DECEMBER 13th, HERE I COME!!! X)

On a different note, at least there's something positive that i could get out of being in the army, cos its so demanding, disciplined, stressful, with great emphasis placed on high-efficiency, zero-errors and even-higher expectations from your superiors, that you're confident that you could handle the tougher real-working world later in life. :)

PIECE OF CAKE! :)
