Departure's Eve

Before I leave for Taiwan it seems that I must get something down on the blog because this'll be dormant for the rest of the month.

Again, I must bitch about the massive difference in the trips that my friends and I arew undertaking. Whilst they will be having a fantastic time in the UK I will be driving round in an armoured fighting vehicle in some Taiwanese plateau in all the dust and mud. Bugger.

There's gonna be 3 straight days of live firing, and it wont be on the basic range. Instead we'll be firing all the heavy weapons while the vehicles are on the MOVE. Hows that for excitement and danger? I suppose that'll be the only bright spot other than R and R over there.

Speaking of R and R, my shopping list only has clothes and Taiwanese instant noodles on it. I'm open to anything people want to tompang on me, but gadgets are out of the question- they may be direct from JapLand, but they sure are too expensive for a coporal's pay. So no iPod5 or Samsung megasong whatever schizo wizo gadgets for me, thanks.

Damn, I'll miss my family and my bed.

And Arsenal lost to Boro of all people. Life sucks.
