preparations: I've just picked out a bag~ lol. & aired it this afternoon. Havent bought all the things i need.
What I've heard about the camp I'll be sent to:
- Well equipped facilities.
- No paip water system. Will be using river water for everything. So, I hope it rains almost daily, else there'll be insufficient H2O, what with low pressure and everyone washing at the same hour. ==
- Since it's river water, some people are not used to it and get diarrhoea.
- Mosquitoes aplenty... more insect repellent..
What I heard, that I didnt know of but concerns me in a way:
- Forbidden to bring one's own medication but paracetamol.
- Laundry service for the clothes they provide for us. Trainees only wash the clothes they brought.

-What's on my mind-
- Am neither thrilled nor upset.
- I read that all systems, in terms of health, food...etc have improved by a notch, so that somewhat makes me feel a bit better...?
- One of my 'ns preparations' went.. awful.. T.T
