hm... monday went past relatively easy. Tues and Wed i had cover duties for the 'bravo' coy boatmen. they are a bunch of undisciplined brats. if i were the trainer, i wld have made sure they learn a hard lesson out from me. Anyway, the duty was a nice 1 indeed. Why? i got to sit at the jetty, enjoying sea breeze. Feeding fishes. Watching the training in the most relax fashion. But wat was the interesting pt was that, ex-CO came to the jetty to 'fang shen'. THere's a lorry of mussels and clams, he wld take them and release them to the sea. this is nt the 1st time i seen him did that. last time i saw him release prawns and crabs too. and the quantity released is a lot. he came on both tues and wed. everytime he come, he will go ard toking to ppl. on tues, he walked up to me and i said gd morning to him. he shook my hand, and chatted with me briefly. There was no airs on him at all. He's a colonel. i am a corporal. The way he tok to me was the type of like a senior talking to a junior. maybe i dunno how to phrase it, but i was happy. how many NSFs actually got to shake his hand? lol. But i shook twice. ^-^ On wed, he came again! den he saw me, we shook hands again. LOLZ. he said, 'fwah! u sign on cover medic ar? how come itz u again?' Lolz. A light moment that we shared. He den tell me to bring a book to read the next time. if nt, itz like very waste time to juz sit there and wait for things to happen. then he cracked another joke again. 'if nt, u can do pt here oso. i lead.' LOLZ. He den pass me and my fren some bread to feed the fishes. Cool. nice person isnt it?
anyway, i did enjoy the cover for boatmen. cos mon wed nite, i sat on the assault boat, and was outsea. we went ard some islands like ubin, tekong, etc. the view was very nice. the experience was new. heh heh. next time when i go ubin again, i can tell my friends that 'ive been here. in an assualt boat b4.' lolz!
