I'm Becoming A Freak...

I just came back from a 3 days 2 nights outfield exercise. It's training for Brunei because I'll be leaving for Brunei in 2 weeks' time. They say Brunei's training will be a fucking killer, thus they are preparing us for it.

We left on Thursday, going to Marsiling for training on how to cross water obstacles. That training sucks. We were made to cross a sort of lake which is fucking dirty and has tons of ferns and crocodiles. None of us got attacked by the crocs, but we sure had ferns all over us. After crossing the water 5 times, we were made to route march 8 km in the wet clothes, with our Full Battle Order (FBO) on. We ended at night and the rest of the night consisted of scolding, planning, sleeping and smacking mosquitoes.

Friday morning, we set off early for a navigation exercise, with FBO on. I was leading my team when I got them lost. Spent about 3 hours to find out 1st checkpoint. My buddy took over and we spent another 3 hours looking for the next checkpoint. Walked, or rather, bashed through the forest for a few more hours before we ended our exercise. We had another route march in the sweaty clothes after that. It took about 2 hours, and we climbed up 3 knolls. It was fucking tiring, and you can see the MG team and the 84mm RR team falling like dominoes. The march ended at around 11PM and the rest of the night was similar to the previous night.

Saturday was almost the same as Friday. We bashed through the forest, looking for checkpoints. I led my team for one for the checkpoint again. I got a little lost as I bashed a little further than we were supposed to, but I still managed to find the checkpoint in time. My buddy led us for 4 fucking hours before we found the next checkpoint. The next navigator led us to god-knows-where. He was totally lost. It rained in the afternoon, making our already wet clothes drenched. Walking around in the forest in wet clothes isn't exactly the way I'd like to spend my Saturday afternoons. Anyway, we managed to get outta the forest by 5.45PM. Took a tonner back to camp. Reached at around 6.30PM and thought that we could book out soon. But I found out that there's still a team stranded in the forest. They were eventually found at around 9.30PM. Apparently they got lost, couldn't find their way in the dark, and ran into hornets twice. That sure is a fucking unlucky team. I managed to book out at 11PM last night.

I developed rashes during the exercise. It's all over my body. My neck, legs, feet and hands. The worst part's my hand. I look like a fucking freak. It's kinda scared Jen and my mum. Bet it'll scare you guys too. Damn. Will report sick tomorrow.

Behold! This picture doesn't even do the real thing justice...

Stupidity Spreads...

I believe that stupidity spreads. Maybe that's a stupid idea, but I believe that I have been exposed to too many stupid people already, thus I'm getting more stupid. But then again, if it's true that stupidity spreads, then it's not a stupid idea anymore, so what the hell is it? And if I can figure out that stupidity spreads, then I'm not that stupid as I think I am, am I? Damn. This is pure stupid...

Radiation In My Camp...

From the trend I observed, I believe there's some kinda radiation in my camp that affects only the females. According to my observations, all the female cadets there, well... are kinda lacking in the looks department, and most of them are all quite well built, especially the infantry girls. It's like seeing Xena wearing freaking number 4 uniform and carrying rifles instead of blades. Did they come into the army and become like that or were they like that before the entered the army? Hmm...

An even more interesting thing is that all of them are well-endowed in the chest region. Well, maybe they are bigger in size, thus the boobs, but even the slimmest Air Force girl has tits that will probably beat all your female classmates. Is it the food there? Or is something sinister, like radiation or black magic working behind the scenes?

So, the girls out there, if you would like to (supposedly) slim down by being forced to do physical training, become uglier, have lots of pimples, get your jugs inflated and become a submissive woman (or an abusive wife, depending on whether you are a soldier or commander), then sign up today.

(This is not an army recruitment exercise.)

Where Did Funny Reeve Go...?

Some of you reading my blog must be wondering where did the funny posts that will make you grin or laugh go. Well, I don't know either. I can't seem to generate funny things to write anymore. My life in OCS is such a bore I can't get anything funny from it. My life at home basically consists of me in front of the computer, either playing games or watching porn. And my mum's recent development of a certain disease didn't help.

Anyway, my friend in OCS told me that if I go around telling girls that I watch porn, girls will find me disgusting. Hmm... True, but at least I admit it. At least I'm honest with it. To the girls out there, do I disgust you?

That's the way people stereotype others. You see girls writing about their sexual escapades all over their blogs, like Sarong Party Girl, and no one really cares. People praise her courage and people like her. Her blog gains thousands of hits a day, and here is one guy who merely admits his less usual hobby and people call him disgusting? It's not like I'm raping girls and writing about how much kick it gives me. Hmm... The perspective to certain people simply intrigues me.

安淋 - Kessa said...: lol. Porn sounds too crude. Maybe if you say you're into artistically nude pictures, ppl will be impressed. And I think those diaries are popular coz its about their own sexual escapades and not about them watching and collecting videos and pictures... people want to know more about their mentality and what influenced them to do what they do. "I love porn and I'm proud of it" doesn't say much coz it sounds shallow. Thats what I think anyway. Dunno abt others.; 8:11 PM

Alone In The KTV...

I just finished reading a book written by actress/singer Rene Liu. It's called 一个人的 KTV, loosely translated as Alone In The KTV. I bought the book in 2001, the year it was published and I haven't really read it until a few weeks ago, and I literally kicked myself for letting such a good book stay on the shelf for so long.

Rene Liu...

The book's made up of short stories and thoughts written Rene, some based on her own experience and some are just simply her imagination. I was shocked to find out that she's such a great writer. The book is filled with emotions and can really touch the reader.

So much said, but I'll not recommend this book to people because the people I know just don't know how to appreciate good chinese literature. Furthermore, the book's written in traditional chinese. Never mind, at least I read a really good book and feel good about it.

Parkinson's...?

My mother has been complaining about her right arm losing sensation. She says that her right arm's been shivering so much that she can hardly write. After thousands of dollars, the doctor told her that she's got Parkinson's disease.

Damn. I can't believe this is happening to my family. I only see that shit on TV and now my own mother has it. If it gets worse, she'll lose her job as her right arm will probably lose the ability to write or something like that. She's the only source of income in the family. If she loses her work, I'll be the one who will be supporting the whole family, especially my younger brother. What the fuck?! This can't be happening. Must find ways to help my mum get better...

What Has The World Become...?

What's going on? I flip the papers in camp and see all sorts of nonsense in it. I see NS men dying every week, charity organisations cheating the public's money, bombs after bombs exploding all over the world, news of people wondering whether a dead 8 year old girl has been sexually assaulted before her death, and many other news like that. What's happening?

It irks me to see all these things, especially the bombings. Why resort to killing? And worse, why resort to suicide bombing? So many goddamn people died. It's kinda far away from us, but hey, lives are precious. Sigh... These are the kind of things that will lead mankind to doom.

Damn The Homework...

Damn it. OCS sure has a lot of shit for the cadets. I just finished a homework that I must submit by tomorrow. Crap. It's some order I must do to elaborate some kinda attack plan. These homework always take hours to complete and I just burnt the whole afternoon doing it.

To make things worse, my printer broke down and I can't print. Asked a platoon mate to help me print. Damn. It's a lonely day. Jen left in the morning and haven't really heard from her since, except for a few SMS. It's kinda sad to spend Sunday alone in front of the computer doing something I don't like and have no idea of. No Jen to talk to, no TV programs to watch , no time to sleep. I feel that I've just wasted a day of my life.

Booking in soon. Gotta go shower and start packing my stuffs. Sigh... Life's a drag...

What Happened Last Week...?

I didn't update my blog last week. I had my reasons. Laziness was one, but the main thing is that the power supply of my computer gave up on me. I burnt out, thus my computer cannot even be turned on. That's the reason why I didn't update. I got a new power supply yesterday at Sim Lim Square, and got this junk machine up and running again.

Rest in peace, my loyal servant...

It's pouring outside, the first time in 4 to 5 days. The past few days were scorching hot. We had a lot of physical training in camp and the whole OCS was like a fucking furnace. Everyone was perspiring like we have dysfunctional sweat glands. Hope this rain will make the weather cooler for next week's even tougher physical training.

What The Fuck...?

I had a fucking unpleasant incident yesterday when I was taking a train to Bugis to get my PSP. I was on the MRT, sitting at a corner seat reading a newspaper. I boarded on at Boon Lay and the train was kinda empty then. That morning, I ran my SEOC, which is a course that required me to run a total of more than 3 km, clearing several obstacles along the way, so I was dead tired yesterday afternoon. After reading the a few pages of the paper, I fell asleep on the train.

I don't know how long I slept, but by the time I woke up, the train was already crowded. And guess what woke me up? It was a knock on the glass I was sleeping against, caused my a woman in her late 20s or early 30s. I was rudely awakened, and feeling damn pissed about it. The woman stared at me for a while, and then turned to an old lady by her side, presumably her mother, and said, "Ma, people nowadays don't know how to give up seats to the elderly," in Chinese. Then she turned and stared at me again. Still in quite a daze, I stood up and gave up the fucking seat to the old lady.

That's some fucked-up incident there. There were so many seats around and so many people around, but she just had to pick on the youngest guy with the most comfortable seat. I'm not the kinda guy who won't give up seats to people. Ask Jen or anyone that took trains with me before. I'll give up my seat to whoever that needs it, but the problem yesterday was that I was asleep and I didn't know the old lady's presence. I'd give up my seat if I knew. Fucking hell. I'm not angry because she woke up up (rudely), but because of that sarcastic comment she made. I was genuinely asleep, you cross-eyed psycho witch.

That spoilt my fucking day. Fortunately I bought my PSP which made me so much happier, or yesterday will be a damn bad day for me.

What do you guys think, man? Was I wrong? Was she right?

Finally... PSP...

Finally, after so much talk and speculations, I got my own PSP. It cost me $569, but it came with 2 games which cost about $72 each.

Yup... That's mine...

After so long, so long that even I thought I was bullshitting, I finally can tell everyone out there that I have it. However, I'm having so problems with it. First, my allowance is practically drained my it. Secondly, my training in OCS is so fucking hectic that I don't think I'll have much time playing it. But, it's still feels so fucking good to own one.

Anyway, the graphics' damn cool. The 2 games I bought, Bleach and Ridge Racer, are damn fun to play. Bleach is based on a popular manga and anime about this death god with bright orange hair. I'm a great fan of both the anime and the manga, so it's obvious that I'll choose that game even if it's in Japanese. It's a fighting game, thus language ain't that important.

A screenshot from the anime...

Ridge Racer, is the name suggests, is a racing game. I've always sucked when it comes to playing racing games, and I've never really liked racing games anyway, but this game's different. I don't know what's with it. Maybe it's the graphics, maybe it's the fascinating PSP, maybe it's the gameplay which requires a lot of skillful drifting, but this game is goddamn captivating. I don't seem to be able to put the game down. Even when I turn it off, the screeching of tyres and the growl of engines keep on resonating in my mind. Fucking good game.

This is the cover of the Japanese version, which has 'Racers' instead of 'Racer'.

This console can also store MP3s, photos and videos. Too bad my memory stick has only 30MB of free space. I'll get one with 1GB of hard disk space next month, then I'll be able to bring MP3s and movies along when I book in or go out. Damn...

The Pressure's Gonna Be Off...

I was made the Cadet Platoon Commander (CPC) the first week I enter Pro Term of my Officer Cadet Course. That means I'll have to settle every thing for the platoon. I'm responsible for every little motherfucking thing that happens in the platoon. I got tons of administrative work to do and I get little sleep. But all that's gonna change tomorrow because I served for 2 weeks already. Haha. Feeling kinda relieved...
