.:. Army lottery .:.
Signals Institue has chosen me.
Not sure what to expect, but so far I hear from my friends its supposed to be slack, although much brain power is needed. And after that it depends on where i get sent to, combat or instructor or something else, hoping for the latter xD Friday, the last day in Mike coy. Did a very simple parade in the morn, then spend the rest of the day in bunk waiting for posting. It felt like A-levels results day, or even worst. The piece of paper willo determine our livelihood for the next 1.5yrs leh, no joke lo. All sit in bunk, scream "I DUN WAN ASLC!" haha. But in the end its still a matter of boh pian la, kena sent where means must go, suck thumb. During the announcement, it was like dunnoe wat la. People can start screaming, either in happiness or pain, strike lottery also dun hv like tat la. Or wat my OC would say "cry father cry mother" haha!
Sat went out with ryan,ter n sharon to play lan at paradise. Got to try Call of Duty, which I must say is the most realistic game I ever played. A stark contrast to Halo genre which I am so used to playing. Its quite cool thou to have seen an actual M16 and to use it in the game haha. Mostly in urban warfare, and without a radar to depend on, it really puts urban ops to the test. Must cross danger area with cover, swing rifle when covering corners and always aim when you shoot. Tink I am too use to using the radar on halo to determine my enemy's location liao, needed abit of adjustment to start learning tactical on coms. Another thing I find super realistic, and abit shock when I first encountered it, is the sniping. The reticle actuals wavers when you scope, which is very life-like unlike most games. No one can hold a rifle so steady until the reticle is perfectly on sight one. So ya that took away quite abit of my sniping skills in the game, thou I dare say I managed to scrap through the game just fine, matching below ter for a few rounds :)
For now, its time to fiddle with my itouch and to lepak till wed, woohoo!
