Operation Failed~

Watched the first part of 'The Kingdom' the other day (yesterday) if you know the movie its about terrorist/jihad/9-11 etc in Saudi Arabia.

-pretty interesting..

Just after watching bits of it, some Egyptian(Mohammad) guy from downstairs walked pass my window (3rd floor)
I'm not too sure what happened but I think a water balloon slipped outha my hands, outha window and down to him on the phone!




Bloody thing didn't burst tho!

Wicklow Re-Visit.

A series of events repeated itself in Wicklow again...
~ another crazy, adrenalin-fueled paintball shootout!



It was an event under the banner of the Penang Medical School, so many thanks to the, for the last minute extra space for me and Yisha.

51 people all together, so thats 25 on 26.

I was a 'turncoat' apparently (according to some ppl) suppose to be in the 'blue team' but swapped with someone to be with the Reds since Yisha's there as well. Turned out, jumping teams was a good idea as we won in the end~ same team with Jay = 1st and 2nd in laserquest the last time we went. So we had the best rep. from QUB konon..hehe.
No offense to the blues, but at a few stages of the game it was like a turkey shoot!
~After action report~
1st game/arena , 2nd match - both teams were suppose to assault a walled position and try and capture it and raise plus defend the flag on the position.
Them Blue-ys got there first and were trying to utilise the cover of the wall against our meagre cover of scantily scattered trees. We charged them even when they had cover. Reached the front part of the wall and a few of us hid behind the barrels. I think they were confused and busy raising the flag as we popped out and just 'sprayed' them...
I personally remember greasing 3 of them clustered together-close range up the middle at the 'gate' and shot a fella with green shiny shoes later behind some tayars who confused my shoutings of '...you're SHOT!,..GO!, GO! ..GO!!..(you're suppose to respawn at the dead zone once shot) he thought it was his team-mates saying go forward.. poor sucker. I had to shoot him a few more times to pass the message. Mind you, we were quite near to each other so it hurts! ~on his part..
The initial follow-up wave flatters but regrouped and took the wall after the few stubborn 'first-wavers' cleared some of the Blues out. What follows was insane..
We climbed on to the wall and reversed the Blues , they had no cover AT ALL save some bushes futher down. Everyone just joined us and started shooting at them, without cover out in the open at the wrong side of that wooden wall as I raised the RED FLAG.....memorable.

A quickie..

'..Sitting by the door, fully aware he's the first to go and staring out into the rain- this can't get any worst he thought. First to go is always uncomfortable. Like venturing into the dangerous unknown or like the first few men ashore on Normandy on the D-day landings.A few deep breathes ,clenching of the fist-not a sign of fear more like to make sure his hands are not numb should the need arise to pull the reserve.

The craft came to a slowdown as it reached its destination followed by the orders- 'feet out!'. As he sat at the door, feet dangling out 3,500 feet from the relative safety of the ground, he waited.. and waited..for what could easily be eternity for the specific order - 'GO!!!' and it came.. plunging into nothing only depended on a 2 inch wide rope to trigger his salvation.

What if it snapped? What if it didn't happened? -He wasn't thinking about that, he thought- 'Owh...shit!!! I forgot to count!!!' and seconds later a huge umbrella opened up about him.

He was me.
I'm on 3!
Yay!!!

Hmm....

You Have a Choleric Temperament
You are a person of great enthusiasm - easily excited by many things.
Unsatisfied by the ordinary, you are reaching for an epic, extraordinary life.
You want the best. The best life. The best love. The best reputation.

You posses a sharp and keen intellect. Your mind is your primary weapon.
Strong willed, nothing can keep you down. Your energy can break down any wall.
You're an instantly passionate person - and this passion gives you an intoxicating power over others.

At your worst, you are a narcissist. Full of yourself and even proud of your faults.
Stubborn and opinionated, you know what you think is right. End of discussion.
A bit of a misanthrope, you often see others as weak, ignorant, and inferior.
