LAst night went back camp, this morning woke up at 0745.
0930: Move out to reclaimed land
1000:recruits being briefed for the digging of the shell scrape and trenches.
1100-1600: recruits digging away
U can see that this is such a boring day. THe blessing was that wasn't much mosquito there(very surprising!) and i feel much relieved. All the Ps(s) were not around coz they had their leave today...(so sly of them to put leave on today).
SOme of my men can really make me so nonplussed....they had no tenacity to finish what they ought to finish within the time frame that we had given them. THey simply had no sense of urgency and I have no "fire" or passion to go "tekan" them too. All i did was to walk around and nag them...correcting them the techniques and the shapes of their shell scrape.
Juz now finally put eventual touches to the walls of my room. WIth that big blue puzzle being hanged, on the left and right hanged my erhus, one on each side. I am quite meticulous not to add too much stuff to the wall or it will make the room look crowded. I prefer a more spacious living area. I once had an idea to convert my cupboard to a "juz some rods" to hang the clothes, but i am simple too indolent to do that. Another idea was to paint my cupboard another colour using wood paint and some varnishes. I have second thoughts on the latter idea.
