So Called "NATIONAL SERVICE" !!!!!!!

Well well.... I'm back from National Service for a week due to my scholarship interview... That doesnt really matter... Now i'm gonna tell you all my stories throughout my 10 days stay there... Pls feel free to drop a comment after you read this interesting blog about "NATIONAL SERVICE"....

Here goes... The first day was very bad.. There were not enough beds to sleep so i and another 28 ppl were forced to sleep in some jurulatih's room.... the room was ok.. but the whole thing is we had to cary all our '3-month' luggage in and out in and out cuz they couldn't make up their genius mind... so we followed like cows.. then we had to like carry our beds from the girls dorm right to the jurulatih's room.. we did that like 9 something 10... first day was shit...well i'll show u some pictures and then i'll further elaborate the story...




Well this is my new look... gosh many loved to see me BALD!!!! so this is it... alright laugh all you want then scroll down... i'm used to it...



Rite these are my new malay friends..... they are very nice ppl.. we chat we laugh and eat together sometimes:) they are the slightly more socialable malays:) so i'm ok with them, 3 of them sleep just infront and beside me...

Ok this two feller are my 'chinese friends' :) They are not that educated (tht is if 'not that edu' means failing all subjects) haha... nvrm... They have brains... why?? Cuz they are the biggest cigarette seller in the camp:) haha... They somehow smuggled cigarette into the camp and they are selling them for Rm2 for one stick and Rm5 for 3 sticks...But they only buy the cigarette outside for like Rm 2.50 for 20 sticks...haha...so do the math:) smart... the ppl here are like going to die if the dont have cigarette for one day... So you guys know how much i hate smokers:) but in this case i dont have much choice... but they are also very considerate ppl.... they know i dont smoke so most of the time they dont smoke in front of me... On my second night.. i went to bed like at 11pm...and i was awakened to see a cloud or smoke flying in the dorm... Damn i couldn;t sleep the whole night... i only had like 3 to 4 hrs of sleep cuz they were smoking as if heaven and hell is not real...Never the less the next day i threatened them:) I told them i got sensitive nose and i get allergic to cigarette smoke very fast and apparetly i got flu when i was talking to them so i told them that is the result of their cigarette but actually its not.. Anyway i told them if they continue i'll have to go to the doctor and the doc will sure ask me what happened... i told them i will tell the truth.. so finally we came to an agreement that they willl not smoke in the dorm:)so now i'm staying in my dorm without smoke!!!! hahaa.... of course i was abit cautious about them bashing me up:) but it seems that they didn;t... SO problem solved..


This is my dorm.. there are around 30 ppl sleeping in this dorm... my bed is the first one on your right the one with the dark blue shorts:) dorm is quite clean cuz sometimes either me or the guy sleeping beside me will sweep the floor.. u know how i cant stand dirt and sand and dust and ants and ...............haha.. its quite cold at night and the mist in this place in the morning is like 200 to 300 metres visibility length... clothes are imposibble to dry in the night... so i usually wash my clothes in the afternoon after lunch then dry it under hot sun... it will be dried by evening...


So this in my toilet.. its very nice and clean as u can see so i basically dont have much problem with the toilet....(not to mention i had lots and lots of experience in SAINT PAUL's toilet) so i guees i'm used to it...the pic below is the place i wash my clothes:) and wait, most of the toilet doors have locks:) so okla.. nothing must to ask for in the toilet.. got a big jacuzzi somemore but with no hot water of course... some times some ppl tur it into a swimming pool...haha


So this is my canteen... sorry forgot to take the pic in the inside but anyway.... the food here is quite good la but the only thing is that they give u very little portion of dishes but a whole MOUNTAIN of rice.. gosh at home it is the other way round.. anyway no choice but to eat:) so yea... ok lets get to the worst part of the canteen... There are tons of FLIES!!! alot alot of them... practically thousands.. i've never seen so many flies before in my life... if u leave ur food unattended, that;s it the flies will start a party on your meal... so we are very busy when we eat... one hand eat rice the other waves over the rice to make sure no flies go on the food... argh damn busy wan... eat also no peace!!!!


Now that is my alarm clock in the morning!!! at guess what time?? 5.30 AM!!!! damn... i shouldn't further elaborate if not u guys will have a chance to run "SUPPORT KELVIN" campaign when i'm in ISA...

Ok that little house there is my classroom... THIS IS THE WORST PART OF OUR GOVERNMENT'S SO CALLED NATIONAL SERVICE~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My goodness.. they have what u call CHARACTER BUILDING classes and some leadership thing... oh gosh u should attend one of them then u will know how speechless i am right now... this classs is the most boring thing in the camp and the lamest... they talk about baby kids leadership and character building... and on top of that they do all the CHILDISH activities that can so call bring out the best in them?!?!?? i was like argh!!!! i can sometimes take a nap in the class.. imagine... its that boring and childdish.... but the whole thing is 'some' enjoy it alot.. they seem to confess that they learn alot of new things in this class and bla bla and bla bla... pls la i learned that in like form 1 or std 6.. I was thinking to myself (grow up and be matured la ppl).....no further comments... MALAYSIA BOLEH, GENERASI INI PUN BOLEH!!!!! yay!!!! lets look forward to a new future... yay...

So this is the PADANG KAWAD where we do all the footdrill and activities and stuff la... nothign much..2 things... this is where we spend 15 to 20 min just on counting ppl EVERYDAY, 3 times a day... how many in your group present and bla bla.... they take their sweet time la as usual...this is also the place where the trainers shout at you for little things...always say punctuality is very important but when its their time to be punctual they are not...haiz... the other thing that i laughed my head off is this... there is this BLEEP TEST thing... so we are required to run 20metres across to the line on the other side back and forth la.. we must follow the bleep sound and then run according to it.. if u r slow u r out.. simple... so i was doing it la...as i was in the 7th round i realised many ppl are looking at me ady.. thinking to themselves why is this elephant still running?haha so i was the COA (centre od attraction) for a moment only la:) haha then when i stopped alot of ppl actually came to say - wa bagus la kamu...haha.. until the 7th round only the fit fit ppl are left and one elephant... hahah.. this is thanks to my friends that jog with me ocassinally when i' m in s'ban:)thank you:)rite...

I guess i covered most of my life in NS for 10 days.. well on top of everything this camp is ok la... not too bad neither good.. i'm getting used to it.. so yea praise GOD...but that does not mean i love tis camp... i'm trying every possible way to finish early and make them give me the FINISHED certificate and get over with this issue.. SO yea tilll my next post of my another 4 weeks of ns:)
