for the past 3 and a half weeks..i have been falling/jumping/carrying/practising for the silver wing...that's right..i've finally gotten my silver wings after doing 5 jumps...i wanted to upload a picture of the badge but then it's too much hassle and i dun have much time left...3 clean fatigue and 2 with combat equipment...the one with the combat equipment are the killer ones...i was practically walking back after each landing to the form up point with 40kg on my back..there was the parachute itself,fieldpack(which actually just contains a dummy weight) and then there's the rifle...i walked about 2km over uneven ground with lots of potholes..tiring...as usual..we prepared for hours for just a minute of flight time...but at least i got my silver wings..it was definitely worth it..
i have concluded that those 'mosquito' bites i got from my sentry duty aren't mosquito bites..they are from other bugs..one mosquito bites do not last so long...two they are not so itchy..three i used mosquito repellant...but then again..maybe i just dun know them well enough...
i still can't get myself to wake up at 6 to go for a jog when i'm at home...in the end i went for my jog at 8.50..hahaz..wellz..i'm feeling good...
