It's been 2 long hectic weeks so far and i'm juz glad tt it's all over. A pity tt i'm feeling so sick that i can't meet up wif any of you out there. So it's been 2 consecutive stay in weekends for mi and it juz feels good to be at home, reading newspapers and books and catching up wif the bits and pieces of news that i've missed. For the whole of last week, i was out in the jungle everyday, learning more about battle formations and section movements and it sure was exhausting man.

On monday, juz when the afternoon exercise had concluded and we were walking back to our gathering point, i suddenly felt a sharp pain at mi lower back. Of course i "argh-ed" and i was trying to find out if an ant bit mi. Mi sergeant came over and tried to help mi check and even peeked into mi pants to see if it's a fire ant and juz when he told mi to take out mi shirt, i felt another jab this time on mi right elbow..so i threw down mi sbo and frantically took out mi shirt. Actually i was quite flustered coz i din knoe wad in the world bit mi and mi sergeant had to help mi remove mi shirt and throw it onto the ground.

Juz then we saw a silver centipede of about 8cm crawling away..and well we more or less knew what bit mi and mi sergeant went to step on the centipede saying " you dare to bite mi trainee, this is ur day man.." Was quite touched when i heard that lar and he quickly led mi back to the gathering point to let the medic attend to mi. One of the warrant officers came and applied some disinfectant around mi wound and asked mi to sit down for awhile and if nothing happens in 30min then i'm fine.

So i juz sat there, wif mi wounds throbbing and hurting very badly. It feels juz like a huge spider continuously biting at the spots and the muscle around mi wound was contracting so much that i felt tt mi back was spasm-ing a little. The wound near mi elbow was not so bad because i supposed that most of the centipede venom went into mi back during the initially sting. Luckily it was only a small centipede man, after about 45 mins, the contracting feeling had disappeared and i was fine already.

But after mi ordeal, i'm very afraid of centipedes and bugs and anything now and i'd jump at the slightest feel of bugs on mi skin. Once bitten twice shy..since i was bitten twice, i shld have twice the fear man..And after tt i was wondering, along wif the centipede venom, there'd be some centipede dna being transferred into mine, and where would that centipede dna be in mi body?? hmmm..i wonder if mi dna has been mutated or changed slightly..

So well, tt's monday and from wed to sat, we had our 4 day field camp termed Exercise Catwalk. We did 3 missions a day, one in the morning, afternoon and night and i found is quite enjoyable. At least i feel tt it's not as tough as the field camp in bmt and surprisingly, it's even more slack than when we were back in our company line man..the missions conducted were ambush and offensive operations and we basically did almost the same thing everyday till everyone of us had a chance to hold various appointments within the section.

Oh i also have to add that i saw scorpions and wild boars too. Apparently, the wild boar charged at 1 of mi platoon's section and luckily, no one was injured haha and i din knoe that the wild boars had names too. Mi sergeant told us that they're called johnny and susan..haha and yes the scorpion was big and fat man..argh..and it was so difficult to kill..tt scorpion..haha 1 sting is enough to ensure that u dun have to go back to camp for at least 1 week..haha

Well i guess i'm gonna stop here. To agnes happy belated birthday man..I'm sorry i couldn't wish you because mi handphone was not with mi at that time but well..i'm sure u enjoyed ur day.

For you ntu pple out there like jas val seok fiona, fiona and pamela, limin and agnes..i hope you pple will enjoy ur new school term and new school life. Especially to limin agnes and jas mine who'll be staying in the campus. Hope that u gers will make more frens and better invite mi to ur campus to drink milo man..take care and have fun.

I've decided to forget some memories that are already unworthy and undeserving of remembrance. Perphaps, it's all been planned for it to end before it has even begun. So well, let the erasing begin! To friends out there who are reading this post, dun worry bout mi lar k? I'm juz babbling nonsense. And to shawna ah ma, dun forget, we have a challenge on 2 Peter man..heh heh heh...enjoy ur new sch term too.
