a chronology of thoughts.
welcome
Everybody has a secret world inside of them. All of the people of the world, I mean everybody. No matter how dull and boring they are on the outside, inside them they’ve all got unimaginable, magnificent, wonderful, stupid, amazing worlds. Not just one world. Hundreds of them. Thousands maybe.

Lackluster 
Yupps, the title describes my current mood.

Hmm, been so long since the last post that I'm not really sure how to resume. Oh right, lets jump straight to now.

I screwed up my leg :(
Fell in the night during UO live firing into a freaking CANAL. Yes, I don't need the chuckles of the hospital staff to know it sounds retarded. In my defence, it was pitch black OKAYYYYYY. It was quite amusing to me too. Initially. Haha.

Anyway, I'm put on cast and crutches and what I thought was only a minor spraine somehow escalated into a bone injury at the ankle area. I'm on cast for 2 weeks but the MC given was only 6 days WHUTT so we'll see how things go from here.

Anyway, I'm thankful for the presence of certain people. Thankful to Boon for accompanying me through the night to NUH and entertaining/impressing me with his eventful NS life. Didnt realise he was such a great guy cause he volunteered to go with me and supported me everywhere till two am without a single complaint. Felt kinda bad when i had to cab back first but i'll be sure to thank him when i'm back to camp :)

Next on the list would be my buddy Jerald who i never thought would be so indispensible, updating me on camp stuff and helping me notify the others etc. Thanks buddy :)

Ok, let's backtrack to army life. I got posted to pro-term. Was sad but i'm all over it now. The urban operations live firing marked a tiring 4 consecutive days of outfield. We were picking up the expended rounds and i tripped into this knee-deep canal just as our WO was warning us about it.

It went something like this:
WO: Go by the other side ah, be careful fall int-
Me: WHOA!, "THUD".             O-U-C-H

so yupps, i fell face-down before he even finished the sentence. And the stoopid A still laughed at my poor situation when i texted him about it  =,=
Exbarrassing max because all my superiors were right in front sighs.

Went to see MO and he tried to give me 11 days light duty i was like WHATTT but i got important exercise coming up! So he reduced to 4-5? but in the end gave me 7 days lol. Then he recommended that I went NUH A&E but i was reluctant to stir up so much trouble but caved-in in the end so was ferried on ambulance to NUH.

OK, this left me stuck at home for the past few days alone, although the bee did come over to pei me the entire day on SAT and ate dinner with us :)

OK just to clarify. Many people must be thinking (and so would I) that i'm lucky as hell to get such a long period of MC but you know WHATS THE POINT OF STAYING OUT IF U CAN'T MOVE ABOUT AND STRUGGLE TO COPE WITH EVEN THE MOST BASIC STUFF? :(
No one around to pei me, no fav. food to eat. Its still confinement, just in the comfort of my own house haha.

Plus, i'm super worried about my equipment and stuff in camp plus the trainings i'll miss. For damn sure i'll lose my CSB badge, the main badge all infanteers get. sighs. Worst case schenario? OOC   :(
Missed my couin's wedding dinner too. sucks max.

Been ranting to the Sa alot recently and i'm once again thankful for her patience with the grouchy me :\
Now i'm just waiting for the call from NUH and also for my aunt to bring me lunch.
Really fortunate to be taken care of by so many people :')

Alright, shall go wallow in boredom and maybe disturb more people haha!

I'm trying to keep my spirits up and hope for all the best when i go back to sispec.

Keep the faith!
