My Recruit Ng

January 31, 2012

So Nicholas had enlisted. I see him off and I’m actually happy because I know that he is gonna have one of his best memories in the army. y’know brotherhood and stuffs. I’m now familar with the stuff he does in Tekong. It looks quite fun seriously. Like obstructions and outfield. They are going to play games like captain ball too. And I can assure myself that he is safe inside. I always thought Tekong is just some offshore island without good facilities and the poor recruits are going sleep in the tent or something. But they have their own cupboard, own bed (which is actually quite thick), sponsored personal items like boots, duffer bag, uniforms, shaver, toothpaste etc. Life is not that hard because things goes progressively. He has friends that enlisted with him. Not very close but still better than none right? Oh yeah we can write him letters. (: Waiting for him to text me to call him at 9.30pm. I thought I’m going to cry today when i bid goodbye with him but having know Basic Military Training better, I’m so assured so I didn’t cry. Win. He is going to book out on 17th feb which is like 17 days from now. This is probably the longest period of time he had to stay inside. After these 17 days, he can book out every week. It’s going to be easy for us because we had tried not meeting for more than 10 days, relying solely on texts during the stupid disgusting period called A’s. And he is going to pass out on 8th April with his friends like ZG etc. I know he will be a happy boy. LOL.
