ROC4 SUNBURNT!

I went out of camp at 530am. I was on a hill.. pretty hill up... and just as i remembered it. I was there the whole day. It was beautiful. There was just swaying grass all over.. and where i was.. there wasn't any trees.. just endless grass... overlooking another hill.. another spurline... a long ridgeline.. and then yet another hill.. my nose became as red as some cooked lobster.. i'm sunburnt. sigh. After a couple of hours, the view became a little boring. so i continued reading my book... then i spoke to my partner for a bit.. a 20yr old JC kid.. was pretty okie.. except that he couldn't hear me.. and only understood me after i repeated myself 3 times. IS IT JUST ME??? argh. I slept a little.. some cadets came and went.. not knowing where they were. This simply reminded me of how frustrated i was when i was doing my navigation... and being irritated at the sight of the instructors lazing ard... ha.. i'm on this end now sucker~!

I just got back.. it's 1900hrs... my face is red.. i just downed a beer.. and skipped dinner.. i didn't had lunch but dun really care coz i'm gonna eat some noodles that i bought at 7-11 on the way back.

I'm not assigned to man any checkpoints, relay points or log points during the green/red beret exercise tomolo.. it's a 4 day exercise where the cadets are given a number of checkpoints to look for. This was a nightmare when i was a cadet... but it was much better then as the routes were pretty established.. the ninja vans ( food vans ) knew all the checkpoints and visited the cadets offering them hot food for cold cash. These knew checkpoints (which i planted some yesterday) were pretty far from main rd.. so.. poor cadets..

Instead... my task is to roam ard the entire training area... visiting the poor pple posted at checkpoints.. and send them 'siao long pao'.. and of coz do some filming of these pathetic cadets trying to find their way to checkpoints.. hiaz... gd life..(i hope~!)

I kinda like to end this post by quoting something from a book that i'm currently reading..
"maybe she's out there.... she exists.. just that i haven't found her yet.."

enuff davidoffs, mabs, and salams... for now.. till later... aly.. i still remember your 555s... the packaging looks like crap but i'm getting em fer you anyway...=)

Hello what book are you reading lah??
Methinks its like screwing up your mind a little...then again, most books do...unless its those crappy "8-Days" stuff.

You know there's this old joke that goes like this:
"We all wait for the right one to come along...but in the meantime we get married"

...its a crazy world we live in yes?

Yo Lou...

Have ya finished reading the book yet... Cos if you did, you would knowing that the quote that you mentioned doesn't really apply in real life because it's more like a rush of blood to the head... or rather the dick.... kekekeke...

AnywayZ... We're the kinda guys that want everything life can offer but yet we crave for stability... the sooner we realise that... the sooner we'll be able to come to terms with knowing what we want...

But yar... Haha! "In the meantime we get married!"
