Preparing for my Military Camp


Today I went to ABAC(my university) after a short break for mid-term exams. But I do not have much time to rest because on this Wednesday I have to go to a military camp for five days. There is called "Kol Chone Kai" where is located in Karnjanaburee province. It is near the border between Thailand and Myanmar . My friends told me it is very hot(like Hell!). I have to go there to be trained so I know how it would be in a real situation (not really). I have to be very patient for five days. Everyone told me that toilets and bathrooms are not very pleasurable to use. I imagine that it could be worse than toilets in all gas stations in Vietnam (they are not close to be called a restroom). But I have to go for my country. As a citizen of Thailand, it is my duty to go there (sound powerful, don’t you think). The truth is I do not want to join the real military, you know, to be a real solider for two whole years. So I chose to be in a corps army student when I come back, I will be a back up force not the real front line solider. And I do not have anything to worry about if I finish the third year in the reserved military school. Because when I am 21 years old then I do not have to join the army force. So I can keep study and do work or get a job without breaking the law. Even though it will be just five days I do not feel like I want to go there at all. Anyway every male citizen must g o so I am a man than I will go too. Wish me luck to save my ass back this time. See you soon!
