quotes from bmt:
2lt marcus: harnesses your ropes... eh? wait... eh? correct what harnesses is plurals correct?
2lt marcus: u laugh at my english issit? any probrems?
yi peng: fuck off fly!
me: if u tell the fly to fuck off it will just multiply and there will be more flies
me: wha sit test is so shiok... its like a barbeque... qithout the barbeque...
hihi just back from sit test. fun-filled adventure camp for 3 days. sadly i had a harrowing experience with a centipede attack last night. basically this is what happened: i woke up with a stiff back and wanted to stretch. my space being limited in my tent i crawled out and just as i lifted my leg i felt a swoosh as something rather long and plasticky fell into the part of my pants leg where the knee is.
i immediately stood up and started to shake my pants leg, trying to get the stupid bugger out. during which there was one instance when i felt the unpleasant tingling sensation of many many little legs running up my thigh before falling back down to my ankle.
at this point i shouted to my tent buddy in a hoarse whisper,
me: andrew!
andrew: hmmm? (sleepily)
me: there's something in my pants
andrew: uhhhhh...
me: i think its a centipede
andrew: (wide awake) oh shit!
at the sound of the word "centipede" abt 1/4 of the company immediately woke up from their tents and started to shine their torches at me. i was insttructed by abt 20 of the 50 pple who were awoken to take off my pants. thus in the middle of the night with multiple spotlights, i performed a strip tease act. alas the centipede was stuck at my left ankle where my pants was pooling around.
at this point i tred to remove the pants from my right ankle firstso that i can pull that left one out in one swift motion. it was at abt this point when the filthy bugger bit me.
there was a flaming sensation on my left ankle and i shouted out loud, waking up the rest of the company. some pple called "go get the commanders" while others called "killitkillitkillitkillit!" thus with my pants at my feet and my left ankle on fire, i started to tapdance in the moonlight with illumination from multiple torches.
medic came, said it wasnt a centipede and gave me a plaster... he told me to just tahan the pain which was now making my calf muscles ache. the pain subsided but the muscles on my left leg ached like collected fatigue and the pain still kept me awake the rest of the night.
i dozed off for abt 45 min at arnd 4 am only to wake up to feel the pain multipled by 1000 cos everyone knows that any pain is amplified when u just woke up. the rest of the day was agony whenever i rested my weight on my left leg. i was the only person that was trailing behind and sweating bullets from the easy as pie 2 click route march that we had to do on the 3rd day.
oh well by late afternoon the pain was mostly gone and i just got back from a REAL doctor with REAL medicine. not the shit they give us at the mo in tekong
