hardcore

back from brunei. camp was run down but food was awesome. welfare was awesome. but the jungles sucked. rock climbing with 30+kg of load is not funny at all. after completing that climb, it didnt help that we were the only group who decided to be garang while the other groups chose to skirt around the knoll. wet and cold nights led to more that normal contact with my buddies but i guess i finally understand what it means to bond closer together in a very literal sense. i was so close to being quarantined for an extended period of time but thank god i managed to make it back. i cant imagine how it feels like to be isolated for another day. but overall, i think the experience was one that makes you feel accomplished but you definitely wont want to do it again. if what we did was only the tip of the iceberg then to all my infantry friends, though it offers zero consolation, it really sucks to be you.haha. many 'fond' memories. many occasions of holaning and falling down. many near death experiences of my mates dramatic enough with its reenactment worthy of a shot at hollywood. so that signals the end of my brunei adventure and one thing is for sure, i wil rather shoot myself then go back there again for training. and now my next adventure at kranji camp awaits me. but for now, a week long block leave so please ask me out people!
