i'm really going...

Okay. Looks like my institution doesn't have much power / say in helping me defer my reservist.

So, I'm all packed and ready for my 6D5N 'chalet' at Jurong. I had to

1) Dig out all the barang barang from my wardrobe

2) Wipe the dust accumulated over 2yrs+

3) Figure out what i'm staring at and recalling what they're used for

4) and then stuff all of it into the duffle bag (which is also dusty)

In fact, i don't know if i'm bringing more than enough, because all that was stated in the letter was bring 5 sets of no.4 (which is the green uniform) and be ready for the IPPT. I'm 101% sure i'm failing the IPPT fitness test, so i wouldn't need to worry that much.

The most worrying thing is how tight the pants feel around my waist.... I could hardly breathe, for real. How do i move around in those pants for 6 days! oh crap.

Fingers crossed i can survive this ordeal.

Till then,

Corporal Dennis Tan
