Last Friday, the tonner came to pick us from Jurong to Sembawang camp. When we reached there, settled some admin issues and was briefed about this course 5 wks long. As they had not expected our arrival, we were not allocated any bunks. After the briefing we left.
Monday morning, reached Sembawang MRT station at 645 waiting for Tiong. By the time he had arrived I was already late it was 710, as the briefing starts at 730. I met up with Tiong as he was working at Sembawang camp and knew how to get there. Reached the camp, and saw a long queue, the trainees were registering their names. After that we were divided into different groups and load up 2 coaches to Kaki Bukit Camp to learn driving.
After 30mins of journey we arrived. For today we are going to have theory lessons and tomorrow onwards practica;. At 6pm the coach came to fetch us back. Reached camp did area cleaning and tidy my stuffs. My buddy is a mortar driver from 5 SIR, and he was telling the stories inside his cmap. My bunk also have a commando and guards driver. The bunk layout is like HDB flats, so there are quite alot of trainees. My group 42 has 48 trainees, 50% from signals.
Everyday routine is wake up go breakfast, do area cleaning and wait for bus at 7am. Around 8am, lessons starts half would be having theory another half go for practical at another place. Theory consists of studying "Basic Theory" and a simulator. Practical consists of driving and parking. Friday had my "basic Theory" test also known as Highway code, after doing 600qns, getting full marks is nothing. Our group around 80% got 50/50 for the test, as a result we get to book out early on Saturday.
This tuesday I am going for my public road driving. After book out from Kaki Bukit, went home. Kai asked me out for dinner at parkway so met him at 6pm. Finally we had dinner at Joo Chiat eating curry fishhead. After dinner went to Katong to play LAN game, waitied for nearly 1hr before getting a seat. Then Long came over and drove us to Chomp Chomp for dinner. After dinner, we went driving at "haunted" places in Singapore. Reached home at 4am.
