Saturday, May 19, 2007 My Jungle Experience WOOH! Just came back from field camp.. 2 days only lah so quite shiok. Our Wing Commander even bought ice cream for everyone. Tango rocks! :) Anyway.. I just returned from the jungles around the zoo. It was quite fun carrying out patrols and ambushing ppl. We even ambushed an ambush force! :) They were totally owned! I also had a once in a lifetime experience few would get the privelege of going through.. So there we were, sitting around in the vegetation/insects, rifles pointing to the track and ready to shoot the crap out of the enemy walking past. Being ever so vigilant I was even watching my left side for possible flanking manouveres. SUDDENLY! I heard a creaking sound above me. I wanted to dive for cover coz I thought the tree was going to collapse on me but I had my helmet on so whatever.. Haha. I looked at the guy to my right and he was violently pointing to the branch above me. I looked up and there I saw.. A !@#$%&! MONKEY! Ok.. maybe it's not so surprising that there was a monkey there but guess what the monkey was doing.. A few streams of trickling water thingy was being excreted from our nice monkey friend.. And he pee-ed in my direction twice! Luckily his aiming a bit screwed up and I siamed a bit. I almost wanted to whack the guy and he growled/smiled back at me, giving me a taunting look that said "You try anything funny and i'll unleash monkey pee hell on you". Oh yeah.. who gets to make friends with a monkey in that manner everyday? After I started to ignore the monkey he climbed to the next tree to disturb the next guy in my section. Well, that was the highlight of my patrol field camp. :) Although you don't really feel that good when you're still participating in it. Back to the civilised world.. Some of my platoon mates have got accpeted into medicine already! Good for them. :) My status is still "Application Processing".. Not sure of when i'll know the results. But whatever I get it's cool. :) Oh.. medicine ppl will get to disrupt their NS after 6 months and go on to study for 5 years, serve 1 year housemanship, 1.5 years as a Medical Officer and a 5 year bond. That's a long long time.. If I get medicine I don't feel like disrupting though.. I want to go to ARMOUR! SWIFT AND DECISIVE! Wooh! :) Tank licence! Black beret! Tankie! Life is so exciting. :) (This is one of the moments I feel like saying it.. Haha. ) BUT! As Jeremy's MSN nick puts it: A man's heart plans the way, but the LORD directs his steps. a ranting by Eugene at 5:23 PM |
