I hate history! My weekends (14 & 15) were burnt for some history lessons on an island called Spectacle Island located some where in the Sydney Harbour. Wat was good?...prob jus the boat tour around the harbour. Wat was bad? EVERYTHING! The accommodation sux and I wont wan to mention the meals again. The worst was a 1 hr lunch break at the Wooloomooloo pier...yah guys, the Café de Wheels is still there. I din had my lunch there though, cos I was in my uniform. It wont look nice to b seen munching on a huge hotdog burger by the road side. I could haf and should haf da bao and eat some where else...I really hope I haf done that. But sadly I din. I chose to haf my lunch with e ang moh counterparts in a nearby restaurant. I ordered a pizza and waited. Burger came, not mine...nachos came, not mine still...steak came, not mine again...I kept waiting. I was simply too hungry to make any complain then. Almost fainted from the hunger. Anyway, that stupid pizza din come until we foot the bill...super pissed man...still I made no comment...wat can i do? I had no time to argue... Suck thumb, take the pizza and head back for the boat returning to the island. I was extremely demoralised for the rest of the day. Urgh…would haf tore and burnt down the place if I wasn’t part of RSN.
An extremely bad week followed. Was in an army camp in Canberra for the next 5 days for small arms firing. I din expect much from an army camp, but this place was beyond hope…it was simply atrocious! Horrendous food (there’s bug in my vegetable!), appalling accommodation (I cant imagine we’re given old, filthy & tattooed pillow and mattress with no cover!) & worst of all the heads (toilet) was a hundred metre away. Poor me hafta wake up feeling extremely cold in minus 4 degree morning, run a hundred metre to get my teeth brushed. Luckily, there’s such ingenious inventions called thermos, beanie and gloves. I was clever enough to haf spent over a hundred bucks on these stuffs to keep myself warm…but it’s still too cold for comfort...brr...
Hope tis week would b a better week. I’m not very optimistic about it however, cos it’s fire fighting and damage control training (again...-_-") for this week, starting today. Today, still okay...jus theory. From the past 2 experiences, it was fun but torturous as well. To make things worst, the water are at 14-16 degrees...sians... hope I wont end up with hypothermia.
Sigh...still gotta worry about the history test tis thurs...sigh...
The only encouraging thing is I’m one third thru the course! Hurray! Cant wait to go back home!
