46 SAR is a very shiong camp. It is very regimental and garang. The camp itself is situated in the middle of nowhere, and the condition of the bunk i'm staying in is quite bad. I'm facing the prospect of only being allowed to book out on weekends for the rest of my NS life.
On the brighter side, the food is OK, better than in SMM, I have a few friends there, and it looks like with the training, I'm going to get quite fit. I'll also be able to sympathise better with those people posted to armour, and i guess this experiance will build my character.
hope that i'll find something meaningful out of this posting...

My purpose for blogging...
guess I'm quite a reflective person, I evaluate everything that I do... Even for something as simple as blogging, I require a reason to do it, as well as what I hope to achieve... anyway here it goes...
when I first saw this blogger thingie, I thought of it as another form of website that was very easy to update and maintain. I have another wepsite on geocities, which I use to store the links to the good websites that I come across; but over time, it got filled with many pages I visited once, thought was good, and posted it on the site, but never visited it again. This made the page quite an eyesore, as the good pages were hidden among the junk, furthermore the updating of the geocities site is very difficult as I have to edit he html code. I thought that with blogger, whenever I came across a good webpage, I could simply copy the url into a post, and should I not visit it again, it would simply be chucked into the history.
Another reason for blogging is to keep my friends posted of what's been happening in my life, just as I hope to be informed of what has been happening to them. I'm finding it especially important now that I'm begining to lose touch with many good friends I have made.
Third, it would be like a diary, though I've never really kept a diary before, I've had occassions when I had a lot of thoughts, sorted it out through notes on paper, and discussed it with my close friends. This could act as the medium for such discussions, but at the moment I'm not sure if I am prepared to post my personal thoughts on the web for the world to see.
Not sure if I'll actually achieve my purpose for blogging, or whether this is just a passing fad... only time will tell...
