Holidays?
So wats next after exams, u ask? Holidays? You wish!!! Here i am, stuck in my hostel room, juz awaiting more General Elective lectures and of course more training for the the upcoming Inter-Hall games... My feet hurt, my ass pains, my body aches, there seems to haf no rest and no end to all of this... luckily, i haf my dearest computer games to accompany mi throughout this tough period.. 100% complete Vice City liao, now aiming for GTA3... but the opportunity cost to all this is to go out there and taking up some part-time work, getting more allowances wouldn't hurt...
An interesting comparison on quotes tat i discovered recently, one taken from jinkiro's blog, the other is from the army Pioneer magazine -->
"Practice makes perfect.... But nobody's perfect...... so why practise"
"You don't practise until you get it right, you practise until you can't get it wrong"

Paradise
He could b anywhere.. he could b anyone.. juz like Osama bin Laden... but we were too high-spirited to b bothered bout tat.. our complacency got the better of us when we receive news of commotion at one corner of the village... apparently one of our drivers was ambushed by unknown assailants and they flew off in a small army-truck.. the target has gone desperate and tried his last chance to make a breakthrough.. we immediately gave chase, and with our perseverance, we managed to gun down the vehicle, and we even captured our target, General Materials Science, and his comrade alive... finally, tis is all over... home is far away, like a paradise waiting for us... and freedom is waving at us... ITS TIME TO PPPAAARRRTTTYYY!!!!!

Day 4
Our target is said to b hiding in a nearby village, so tat will b our next objective... attacking a built-up area is dangerous, cos we will b in the open and the enemy will b under shelter and defense... the crucial factor is to b swift and decisive, kick down doors, break windows, lob grenades, clear rooms, the standard stuff... however we muz not neglect the villagers and innocent... the enemy once again exploit these rules of engagement and retaliate by disguising them as suicide bombers, or whip out their weapons at our vulnerable moment... being in the open(book) is never smooth sailing, building and structures and even people can look simple, but can b confusing and deceptive... needless to say, a lot of our men haf sacrificed... eventually, we neutralised the defenses and our troops began to occupy the Village of Physics, getting ready to hunt for our target... he should b hiding in one of the village houses... morale has risen, its near the end of the war...

Day 3
We need a higher ground rather than the flatland we conquered to survey the surroundings better... the next objective is juz up ahead, charging up the increasing slope of a hill... with every step, it means slower process and under more attack from the enemy... the upward sloping curve proves too much for our men, the battle was fast and furious, and we are running out of time... finally another plan is brought out by deploying paratroopers at their own bases, and we capitalise on their confusion... casualties r high as usual, morale still low, but we manage to capture the Hill of Economics, which enables us to overlook on the next objective juz a few kilometres away... due to the high ground, we cannot stay for long to avoid detection and next move-out timing will b another 2 days later... no time to rest, no time to breathe...

Day 2
With determination, we advanced to our next objective, and to our surprise, thick lush vegetation and abundant wild animals greeted us on the high flatland... without thinking twice, we charged our way through, and ended up letting the enemy scoring an amBUSH WIN on us!!! booby traps r set on the plantation, some vegetation r spouting out poisonous sap and gases, animals sabotaged wif strapped explosives... i haf never seen those kinds of weapons in my fighting history... casualties r high, morale is all time low... despite a demoralising battle, we manage to hold out and with the help of reinforcements, we finally conquered the Plateau of Life-Sciences... next move-out timing is 2 days later... hope i still haf the motivation to move on...
