ok its like 12.51 am and im like at mac donald bukit batok doing my report and studying my maths 2, specificall, PDE (partial differential equation).. from the looks of it, im gonna walk home again.. i walked home yesterday after sending chahat home. i was too lazy to actually walk to the bus stop and try my luck with the last bus service.. the distance between my place and hers isnt far.. just like a nice 15 mins walk..
which is nice.. why?? because when i walk home along the foot path, i can smell the midnight dew of the vegetations at my side.. and that smells oh so remind me of my good ol ARMY DAYS of chiong sua and well basically moving about doing combat stuff in the middle of the night at some protected area while everybody else is sleeping soundly in their own bed dreaming of the beach and coconut juice and sort..
it reminded me of the times where i was soo sleep deprive i actually saw elephants (hallucinations), the time where i got stung by something cos i anyhow went into the vegetation (my right ear had a burnt sensation for hours), the time where the entire platoon got attacked by a mass swamp of sand flies etc.. that specific midnight dew smell of leaves really made me feel nostalgic.. hahahaha
i think by now half of the guys i know would tell me to sign on =P oh well, its just nice to recollect back those fond memories of you doing something that is considered once in a life time for many.. and i bet, right at this very moment im blogging this, a group of army people are doing what i did mention above, moving about in the dark at some training area, practising their night movement and attacks..
to those people! have fun! cos i sure hell did =)
smoke on the water.
