WOOTS!
Thanks to Vesak day, the lot of us got to book out today. And that means LONG WEEKENDS for us! Woohoo! Okay, now the sad part is that this will be our last long weekend! Aww..Something about the army. Commonly, words like weekends, bookout, singapore, tft are what recruits like us would love to hear. Adversely, we have the reknowned but formidable knock it down, confinement, guard duty and fall in, half left down, outfield, misfire, ration. It's evident what a regimental lifestyle can do to us.
Field camp and Sitest are finally over. So that marks the end of any further outfield activity! Woohoo! Let me tell you the worst part about staying in the wild. Trust me (whilst you may choose to also verify this with your male friends), that there is nothing more unfeeling and cumbersome than to bury your shit with soil after doing your business. Shitting sounds pretty ahem .. crude. Egestion? Defecation? To start off, you actually gotta dig a hole on the ground, lay your most dreadful load with precise dexterity and then conceal your minature chasm with the surrounding earth. But imagine yourself digging up somebody's .. well .. nevermind.
Oh, why are I speaking about the most uncultured in human history?

Grrr.. Somebody give me bunny legs!
I have not been able to post any photos recently cus my mum's touring around Canada with our digital camera. My kickass fujifilm camera has been borrowed and most likely not coming back to me. So what is Kevin to do?
I will have to buy a new camera! Okay, I am not exactly what you would term as a guru when it comes to digital photography so accordingly to the Fujifilm - I'm New To Photography page, these are which I've discovered.
- Pixels do not determine the quality of the image; they merely determine how big the image is. The quality of image lies on the quality of the pixels. Period.
- Optical zoom beats digital zoom. Digital Zoom cuts away the edge of the image and enlarges the section in the middle. So that obviously sucks.
- Small cameras can be sophiscated and a powerhouse. So don't be fooled by size.
- Metal body frames do not make your pictures any better. They however tend to provide greater rigid and scratch resistance.
