3weeks
I was there for 3 weeks in Foxtrot. Amazing company.
Sorry for security reasons I should not say any more about my first 2 weeks inside.
After my first 2 weeks, I got posted to Midshipman Wing. I'm in the NAVY! I just thought of how small a chance one gets to go navy. Only 5% make it to navy and commission. Dropout rate is high due to training. And if only 10% make it to OCS, naval officers make 0.5% of the cohort.
I can't say anything much because of possible security breaches. Must watch evrything I blog that I reveal any sensitive information about SAF. Except the first 2 paragraphs, all info is officially provided.
Initially it was really damn sian. It's not that my bunkmate is very boring or what not, but u don't get the kick and craze with many others. It is also a whole new environment. That was the first week understandably.
My first week in navy was tiring. We have to learn much and that means less sleep. A lot of training following up la, 35 weeks to go. All the way :)
At least now I'm motivated. I felt no sense of belonging, eliteness nor elevation when I entered OCS. What the hell, it isn't that hard given my physical aspects. But now I feel a sense of belonging to the navy, though it's too early to say. One main factor is because I was once from NCC(Sea). It's definitely fulfilling to back to the sea again.
