Preparation for Enlistment

Countdown to PTP: 5 Days 

It's exactly 5 more days before enlistment , feeling a little excited and curious like what kind of training I will have to go through etc. 

Upgrading my status from Pre-Enlistee to le Recruit Nah. 

I think my mom is more kanchiong than me ? Nagging and rushing me to get all the items on the checklist ready. I prolly pack my bag on Sunday or Monday. 

Omg how come it feels like I'm going for a vacation @ Tekong - the only thing is that this "vacation" includes meals and accommodation all for free. #justjoking

Everything must be kept in low budget because I don't want to spend too much   on army HAHA .. Well at least that's my logic. 

So here are some items that's pretty essential: 

1) Army Specs 

Okay I spent like $120 on this. Which is like pretty expensive lah my budget is like less than $100, if possible. 

Okay I don't know how true is it, but I've read blogs and on forum that u can actually claim the $$ back. So best is to keep your specs receipt.  I threw away my receipt already coz I read the forum after I threw it. #whatever 

Get those plastic black frame cum the ear hook support kind. 

*flips hair* Erm if you wanna be fashionable inside, I recommend those matte material frame, more in trend. 

2) Hangers 

My mom bought these hangers actually. She specifically bought those with clippers on it so it's easier for me to hang my own clothes etc. 

The checklist stated to bring 6 or more but some of my friends advised to bring on at least 12?? So probably gonna put in another 6 more 😌

 Hang your undies hang ur uniform hang ur PT stuff. 😏

3) Inexpensive Watch 

Went shopping around Bugis area with my family last Sunday and they bought this for me actually. In fact my mom bgt 3x of these CASIO F-91W watch !! Is like $19 only but the shop I went have discount so is like $11 each?? Plus it's water resistant and all. 

Mom was like telling me if spoil can just throw away - LOLed.

4) Detergent 

 

It looked like some drug 白粉. Nahhh just joking HAHA. 

Actually stored my detergent powder in a used plastic water bottle, it's easier to like pour and all.  

 Omg I hope this amount can last throughout my confinement period. 

5) Bodywash etc

I'm bringing in like travel size facial foam and body wash to Tekong actually.. ... At least it won't take up space in my bag. So I'll throw them away when used up. 

I'm brining in more products in, not only the 2 shown up there ^

Other essentials like shaving cream and disposable shaver. Maybe deodorant I wanna smell like heaven there. 

6) Swimming Goggles 

  

Bought this from Mustafa for $15. Really cheap and it comes with a degree. 

Anyway I'll end my blogpost here. I didn't  do a full coverage of my preparation list actually but mentioned the essential stuff only. 

Rmb to bring sufficient underwear lor.

Maybe I'll  edit my blogpost when I thought of things to add on.
