okie i am finally back. phew. after 4 weeks of field camps after field camps i finally got a SATURDAY BOOK OUT. i cant believe it. like.. finallyyyy!!! so touched till want to cry. T-T
while preparing to go home one of my platoon mates say that this feels like finally going home after fighting for 1 month in the war zone. hahahah. i cant agree more really. jiu hao xiang da wan zang hui jia. ( zz suddenly computer cant type chinese tskzxzxz. ) when we all gather to finally go home we really looked like exhausted soldiers happy to go home after so longggg.
another of my platoon mate said this month's allowance is not earned easily. every cent is earned with our sweat and blood. LOL.
we bashed through the jungle.
we crawled over mud.
we got raped by all the creepy crawlies at night. ( my hands are disfigured with all the freakish insect bites. o.o mosquito bite sandfly bite ant bite whatever that can bite will bite )
( oh oh i saw ants that were 3cm big. CAN YOU BELIEVE IT 3CM. go grab a ruler and see how big those ants were. absolutely humongous. )
we shivered in the heavy rain.
we slept under the night sky.
we climbed alot of hills.
we slept in the pouring rain.
we endured all those sleepless nights.
we endured all the cuts, injuries and wounds. we grinded our teeth and carried on the way real soldiers do.
we were so tired that we can even sleep while talking/eating.
we dug holes so deep and wide that i can bury 20 of me inside. not to mention we dug overnight for 2 consecutive days.
we hid under trees during the thunderstorm.
( i was walking walking then BOOM. one tree 20m away from me got stuck by lightning. then the tree started burning and then topple over. like O.O SHIMATA!? WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED. all of us just stared in shock and there was a period of chaos. then we decided to squat down but got yelled at cause we were in the open lmao. then we hid in the jungle which i thought was quite stupid. didnt a tree just got stuck just now?! but for a moment i thought we were all goners it is very probable that we got stuck too. we are sooo dead siao liao siao liao siao liao. )
we cleaned weapons overnight.
we ran like mad dogs.
we screamed like mad dogs.
we bashed 200m into the jungle and climbed up a hill just to kill 3 'enemies'. wth?!
i was tasked to carry and walk around with around 8kg? of TNT shaped in a long cylinder. O.O well it was pretty safe actually just that the long pole kept getting caught in the leaves.
i was tasked to carry a load of around 20kg for a moment. wah insane. the worse part comes when hoding in push up position. so torturous i swear. i can barely hold for a mere short 5 seconds.
i walked up a hill 85m tall with a 10kg coil of 2km long cable with a load of 10kg on my bag. wah shag.
then laid the cable downhill in the dark. and the goddamfreaking 2km long wire entangled. messing around with the coil in the dark is no fun and so super duper exhausting.
everyone was given an appointment for each exercise. and guess what i was the RUNNER. and guess what the runner does? yupp you are right. i run. best job ever zzz.
fighting a war is shaggg. moral of the story: never go to war. more often then not the people who made the decision to go to war are those who feel the least pain. they have no idea what soldiers go through. all soldiers have a similar journey but each went through a different and unique experience. they left their home, family and friends to a faraway place to protect them. in times of war all the minor injuries doesnt matter anymore. whats important is to be there shoulder to shoulder with his brothers and be with them when they needs him the most. enduring all the fatigue and pain with only the thought of being able to go home at the end of all these mindless fights to spur him on.
and after 4 weeks of bullets flying, people shouting, blood flowing, sky raining, lightning flashing, trees burning, ground digging, mud crawling, insect biting, soldiers running... he has finally come home.
WOAH. i think i am ready to direct a war movie. wahahahahah. alrights gotta go have my dinner already. mum says she cooked something nice. :D
he went to war and came back alive. so that he can drink his mum's soup again.
