Back from holiday, 6D5N at P.Tekong JUNGLE

Ok. Hi folks, I just return from the most tiring, shag-out yet fruitful experience trip, "Outfield". Ermz, 6D5N... How did i survive? I will talk about the "Sleeping condition" and "eating condition" only for some reason all of us was told we cannot reveal informations bla bla that was classified as confidential.

For the first night, we were all sleeping at the heart of the forest, building our very own marshal, and digging the drainage to prevent flooding. Well, for me, drainage was still alright before it gives way after 4hours of raining, those who will lazy get to swim in their own marshal. Second and third night was the same, it only became abit more special when "Turn-Out" was shouted. All of us was still half awake, but we got to gather and fall-in. Definitely we was late, and commanders will start to say "Shag cannot think right, knock it down!". And it goes on for 30mins...

For the 4th night and 5th night, we moved to a new location. We gotta dig our own "coffin place" (Trench) for us to sleep, 2m by 1m, knee length height. Digging this hole took me about 6hours continuously, and some took 2days to complete. The feeling of sleeping in it? I don't really know cause the moment I stepped in, I slept like a pig cause i was fucking tired out. But well, i suppose the insects there just walk over me without me knowing. The 5th night, we slept in the muddy area for those who completed digging and covering back the coffin hole, rain and rain, the ground was so soft, slept at 12mn woke up at 4am cause the rain was too big and we was evcuated to training shed.

About the food, I tried the combat ration for the first day, Glutinous rice w/chicken and Tomato Pasta. Sounds nice right? Try it and u won't eat again, it's like dog food la. Expiry date is Nov2008 can tahan 2 years sia... The biscuit given to us also like dog biscuit, bite 1mouth, guggle with water then can eat. Though sachet of brevages was given to us, we cannot mix in water, so we pour into our mouth, then guggle in. And so for the next 3days i took "dog biscuit", 1 packet which contain 5 pieces, for every meal. And on the 5th day, I took 1packet and it lasted me till my bookout meal which mean i didn't eat anything for 48hours. AMAZING, didn't know how i make it, was not hungry till the steamboat grouper fish, pork rib king and chicken wings appear in front of me. LOL!! I ate 31/2 bowls of rice. My mum was telling the server that i am damm hungry. Breakfast was also nice, chicken wing, egg and kwayteow mee w/ beehoon. It's like we only know how to appreciate things when we lose it. We should not be choosy about food la...

Lastly, Pegasus, Platoon 1 ROCKS. We survive together as a team. =) All the best guyz.
