I've dug my grave, I've said my prayers, now I'm standing outside the gates of hell, waiting for it to open in just 53 hours time. When Sunday morning comes, I'll be in the fighting the biggest battle of my life : Hell - week.

The admins' been done, the logistics' been prepared, the plannings' done, there's no backing out now. Its just me, my inner motivation, and my buddies. Together, we'll charge through the realms of hell and come back out alive. 68 men in, 68 men out.

We are the bold
United souls
We live to win another victory
Our sacred scars
Show who we are
And tell the story of our memories

Don't be afraid
It's the price we pay
The only easy day was yesterday
So hear our voice
We have a choice
It's time to face it

We are one
We will stand together
Number one
The chosen ones
We are one
We will fight forever
We are one and we won't tire

Seize the day

In a few hour's time, I'm going back to camp for another week of Hooya! The past few week's been quite tormenting (physically and mentally). Theres the days when I don't get enough sleep, where I wake up and all I wanna do is just lay on my bed and rest, theres been days where I'm so shagged out, I don't even feel like the bowl of shitty lunch sitting infront of me.

I try and tell myself, everyday I don't train 100 percent, someone else is. Every chance I let slip pass me, someone else is making good use of it. So no matter how tired I am, with all my might, I give it my best shot. But, its not always so picture perfect, and there are times when I give in to the weight of the training, because I'm only human.

If there's one thing this place has taught me, it's taught me to seize the day.

10/10/10. Hellweek

Hellweek dawns upon the boys of 33rd Batch CDC. On the 10/10/10 (10th October 2010), we'll stand firm on the grounds of hell, we'll endure it as one, and after 5 days of war, we'll march out the gates of hell victorious, afterall, we're rough and rugged bunch of warriors yeah, Hooya!

I nearly lost my mind in the jungles this week. It was like, trying to cling on to whatever bit of sanity left in my soul. I swear I nearly died. At the start of this course, I knew it'll be tough and difficult, but I never imagined I would lose my sanity every week. Now, I don't even care anymore - do what you want to me, I just want to see my friends and family on my weekends, if not, I'll go crazy.

Anyway, I'm running the army half marathon on Sunday. xD, I'm quite excited about that, even though I'm tired as hell right now.

My sony MP3 headphones broke down yesterday ): and the 6th Gen ipod nano only hits the shelves next week. ):

Anyway, this week was rather tiring (well, every week is kinda tiring, but this week was a burn out). I can feel a little bit of fatigue kicking in, we get tired so easily these days. Probably cause we've been building up our training program for next week's 21km half marathon. We've been going at nearly 15 - 20km mileage every week. Uphill sprints, endurance runs, speed intervals, you name it.

We did some crazy pool snorkeling this week, and I've got to say as trainees, most of the time, we're out breath - yeah, even on land x) ! - But its crazy how long you can really actually go without air underwater, never thought I'd be able hold my breath for so long before.

Somebody please buy me a 6G ipod nano XD,
its awesomeeeeeee

33rd Batch Sluts
As the weeks go by, i feel like we're slowly maturing as a batch. We're no longer the same people we were when we enlisted. Today, we've grown alot stronger, tougher, and faster. Though we aren't really there yet, we'll get our act together slowly, and when Hellweek dawns upon us, we'll be ready for it. Boat smurfs will be ready for it, I'll be ready for it.

just for laughs
