life is a drag
-
i'm not sure whether im the only one feeling this way but hear me out first...
okay i've alr served ns for 3 weeks alr and this is my 2nd bookout. although it's both long weekends for me (fri bookout mon nite book in), i feel as if ns has messed up my life to a certain extent
it's like 5 days of accumulated fatigue leaves me feeling damn shagged and lethargic when i book out. so i spend my weekends like sleeping, even when i'm out with my friends, i'm like feeling shagged too.
certainly makes me feel that my life has been reduced to an aimless routine. -

its a whole new system that we're doing -
only 2 weeks of BMT u cannot even take it already.
don't whine, many of us here have gone through worst than u. life aren't a bed of roses nor a scroll in the park. if 2 weeks of BMT is already wearing u down, how are u going to cope with unit life? or the concrete jungel when u ORD and find a job, the outside world is more complicatd. -
Hi ThousandIsland,
From your post, it seems that your find it hard adjusting to military life still, just learn to deal with it as it comes because your still young, your body is able to take some strenous activities without much problem.
I do belive BMT and Army has been more mindful of their training and safety for a while than the old days. I remember doing my BMT back in 2001, the life back then was tough, but memorable.I do belive lot of old army practicies i recevied has been toned down or banned recently.
Don't look at such stress and tirness as a form of stumbling block, when you ORD in the future to resume studies in Uni or start working, the ability to drive further and add value in school work or working will certainly be credited to the training you recevied in army.
Some jobs demand you work 12-14 hrs per day, for 6 days, then what are you going to do ? And dealing with politics, tight deadlines, and fear of losing your job is much worse than your current situation now
But of course such jobs come with gd renumration packages
Do take care of yourself, Happy New Year to you and your family ! -

Frankly speaking i prefer bmt life over unit life,unit life super sian ,everyday do the same things,it a real waste of time.

that's why i say we must always make the best out of the worst. learn to "ku zhong zuo le". always think positive, tell yourself that things could be much worst. do what i do, laugh in the face of danger and prevail.
