Interesting Stuff: Today PE was kinda tougher. Many people fall out (as in need a rest and got out of the platoon for the time being and not faint). I am the Timer for today. It's kinda hard to listen to the command and shout to react in time. As a Timer, you have to control the timing of Pumping, Drills, Adjustments and even the greeting of the Sergeants. You'll need to shout approximately 5 times every minute. We had Mud PT for today. We had to pump on mud and do sit up on... MUD too!!! It so damn sickening!!! Thanks to the bad weather the days before!!! Speaking of weather, it's a good thing that it didn't rain today. So during the 45 minutes break, some people were half-naked washing their shirts and drying them in the Sun. I was one of them. It's a common sight in a boys' school. The time before we were dismissed is all about talking crap and announcements. Today, Encik announced that the Sec 4 will be stepping down in 2 to 3 weeks time. Why??? The Sergeants rocks!!! Especially Encik!!! He's the best among the Sergeants and that's also why he is the Assistant Sergeant Major (ASM). He can be EMO sometimes but he's quite lenient and don't ask us to "Knock It Down!!!" a lot. During the Talk-Cock Session* (also known as TCS), someone asked Encik which school he came from. Surprisingly, he's also an old boy of NCPS. That makes him rocks two times more!!!
*TCS is an unofficial term used by our platoon to describe the 20 minutes relaxation time that is spent asking dumb questions, jokes or riddles every week.
