hi all. im back from my 5 day 4 night field camp. which was pretty exhausting. not that the activities were all super strenous or what. it's just that.. having no rest and little proper uninterrupted sleep at night leaves your body weak. like for the last 2 days i was sleeping in a hole i dug in the ground. imagine how comfortable that is. -_-
zz then my training schedule is super screwed up. for other ppl usually after field camp they have one day of rest, where it's all lectures or sth. for me? nono, we have SOC (standard obstacle course) which was pretty tiring. and i got this huge burst blister on my palm. the size of a small fingernail.
AND. this morning we had 12km route march. -_- zzzz. a route march is basically walking in this attire called SBO. let's calculate the weight
helmet - 1KG
Load Bearing Vest - 2-3 KG (to put it simply, it's a vest you wear around yourself)
Uniform - 0.5-1KG
Rifle - 2-3 KG
Field Pack - 7-10KG
= about 15 KG
And so we walk on and on and on. uphill mainly. freaking tiring. and it left me with a giganormous blister on the underside of my right foot, so it's freaking hard to walk. ugh.
AND, this coming monday i have the 16km route march. how awesome.
sigh ok ill go cheer myself up with prison break and lost. cya.
