Bootcamp: Day #3

Dear diary,
why time no pass fast fast during bootcamp?

--

I've been really busy with work and Facebook LIVE for the past few days. Hence, this delayed post. Right now as i'm typing this, i'm proud to tell you that none of my muscles are aching no more! WOOHOO!

But suddenly reality hit me, and i realize that there's bootcamp TOMORROW.

And i'm like:

"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me....."


Ok, all negative emotions aside.
Here's what happened on the 3rd day of bootcamp.


Careen and i woke up earlier than usual (about 5minutes earlier) and quickly got ready, had a quick breakfast, got changed, and quickly rushed out of the house because we didn't wanna reach late again.

Me: "Hey, why don't we take a short cut today?"

Sis: "Short cut? Oh okay. You sure you know the way?"
Me: "Come on. Have faith in me."
Sis: "Ok. I trust you. Show me the way, woman."

*shows Careen the way*

Got lost.

Reached late.

And i'm like:

"TADA! We're here!"

And my sister was like:

"I'M GONNA KILL YOUUUUUUU"

Thank God our trainers didn't punish us (and the others) for being late.

This is when we feel like hugging and telling them:

"I love you, trainer."

After warming up, they split us up into different groups.
Delta / Seals / and Rangers.

Delta is for STRONG people.
Seals is also for STRONG people.
&
Rangers is for people who loves God with passion and people with compassion.

Need i say more? I'm in Rangers.

We all know very clearly why we're divided into different groups.
And i'm very happy to be in Rangers. #smallpeopletalk

And so our exercise began.

We're supposed to do different exercises in 3 different stations, and do a total of 6 sets.
Just when we thought our life was tough, we looked over at the Seals n Delta, and they were doing some really really hardcore arm exercises using sandbags.

That's when we Rangers smiled at each other and said:

"Come on Delta & Seals, you can do it!"
when our actual thought was:
"Thank God i'm not in your group...."


BUT little did we know that we're supposed to swap places with Delta & Seals and do the arms exercises too.

We were like:

Nevertheless, we kept our cool.
And nodded our heads to whatever the trainer's instruction was.

Trainer: "Alright guys. Carry this sandbag, put on your left shoulder - carry it above your head - and put it on your right shoulder. DO NOT STOP until i say STEADY!"

Me:

"Let's do this!"

but in my heart i was thinking...
"I'm gonna sue you if i can't lift up my fork&spoon to eat."

HEHEHE! Just kidding ^^V

Our trainers trust us so much that he asked us to do our own counting.

Others: "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8!"
Me: "1, 2, 4, 7, 8!"

Trainer: "YOU! How many more to go?"


And I'm like:

"I'm done, trainer."

After the 2nd set, we all felt like giving up on life already. Ok, not 'we all'. Just me.

And there's this 'military rule' saying that all the tools/equipments used are not supposed to make any sound when you put them down. In short, no matter how heavy that tool/equipment is, you gotta put it down really slowly and QUIETLY.

Unfortunately, a few of our group members decided to break the rule. Therefore, we had to do 1 set of a certain exercise. (I forgot the name of that particular exercise. So let's just call it....pekchek.)

Member #1 drops the sandbag loudly on the ground.

Trainer: "give me 10 pekcheks NOW!"

And i'm like:

"Awww come on man...i need my arms for making milo!'

Member #1 drops the sandbag AGAIN.

And i'm like:

"GOD, TAKE ME AWAY FROM THIS CRUEL CRUEL WORLD!"

Thank goodness there wasn't a 3rd round of punishment.

If not.......

At the last 5minutes of bootcamp, i can't really feel my arms no more.
We warmed down. Drank water. And took pictures.

Us: "Let's take pictures, guys!"
Trainer: *runs behind us and poses for the camera*

And i'm like:

"What are you doing here???"

HEHEHEHE. Just kidding again ^^V

*camera snaps*

and

TADA! All the happy and wobbly human beings.

"WE. SURVIVED. THE. DAY."

Bootcamp tomorrow?? All i can say is....

READYYYYYYYYYYY.
