Today i went for my NS medical checkup. Well lots of people there, big and small ( i am the small guy there being totally lost and blur). Going in to this highly guarded place wasnt easy, i say harder than going into the Istana during certain days. LOL. Security screening and no image-capturing devices are the norm.
I found my way to the right building and the whole registration process was a brisk. Everything went smoothly and the signboard around proved its use to a certain extent. I happened to meet my secondary school friend there, just that he wasnt going through the medical checkup, but just there to pass up some of his medical report. We talked abit about this checkup, its procedure and things to expect etc... (though i already know roughly what will happen)
The check up was with very little wait time, moving from station to station was easy. Theres the self urine test, where I just find it hard to pee without drinking much water in the morning. HAHA.
Then they drew like one syringe full of blood from me, i had no time to feel scare given the process was over within a minute. The audio test, dental and eye check and X-ray was just routine. I manged to talk to some RJ guy that happen to queue with me during these checks. Well he was nice and brought my clumsy plastic bag for me into the room after i left i outside. A simple HELLO goes a long way.
The people there are mostly NS men doing admin work, i noticed. What a good life, everyday like going office. HAHA. I talked to a second year NS men doing the ECG on me and he looks friendly. Oh mine, the medical equipments there are quite out-dated. The blood-pressure machine, ECG machine all used the old type. The screening ended with the NS doctor checking me 'thoroughly' and gave me a combat fit PES A.
Then came the boring part of the whole thing. I dunno I sit how long in front of the comp there, asking all the supposedly logic and maths questions. There are also some physics questions. The time given for some questions are quite tight. I didnt mange to complete the maths questions ( lol i got a slow brain). The quiz ended with a survey and asked for suggestions and improvements.
After that I went off to the canteen inside and got a drink, asked for directions yet again and went straight home.
