Booking in.

Well, although the week has been entirely uneventful, it was the most enjoyable time I've had in a long time. No work, no stress and no worries. The past few days incamp has been quite a leisure trip. The only activity I had to do was some gunnery simulation exercise; which wasn't really much of an exercise, considering everything's held indoors in an air-conditioned environment. Over the last few days, I've come to "re-realize" the common reservist ethos present in everyone of us and they can be summarized below.

• We can sleep anywhere. As long as there's nothing going on, auto hibernation comes on.
• We are perpetually hungry.
• Going for meals is a group activity. Always.
• It is perfectly acceptable to wait more than an hour for food at the canteen.
• It is perfectly acceptable for someone to walk out of a toilet buck naked.
• The other companies are always doing lesser.
• The other companies are always having it better.
• There can not be no cards.
• Coins. Can't do without them.
• Tonight got nights off?

In any case, tomorrow the entire unit is going to Tekong island. Apparently this is going to be a R&R trip so we were told to bring stuff to entertain ourselves. Well, its only 4 days. I just hope I can clear as much of my required reading as possible during this period of time. This is about the last period of inactivity I can have before work once again rears its ugly head and absconds with whatever free time I have left available.
