Hi peeps,
This week marks the end of my SCS foundation term. Which really flew by pretty fast. Except our 28k graduation march, which was a total bitch. The first few legs were still pretty ok, except my OC was walking us at relativistic speeds, which would explain why the distance seemed much longer than described (Spacetime dilation by Lorentz transformations, I'm guessing. My physics ain't that great with like 20kgs of load on me)
At the 12k mark, my back was still pretty polite in asking me for a break. By 16k it was practically screaming its lungs out at me. When we hit 24k the vuvuzelas were out in full force, which isnt a really nice feeling.
Anyway, i've been posted to Armor vocations. Dun really know what they're gonna do to me there. My guess is making me wear some armor and letting me loose at the enemy. And maybe a couple bazookas just for the effect. So it'll probably look something like this:
Muahahaha. Fear me. Mooooooooooo
And yea, the world cup is in full swing now. Was watching it over at ruiyang's house on sat, which is when i saw poor rob green's blooper. Its quite sad actually. Keepers are expected to never make a msitake in their careers, which is really unfair. I mean strikers are not villified for missing golden opportunities are they? Do we see headlines of keepers making one of those physics-defying saves the way we do for strikers who scrappily bundle the ball home from six yards with their head? The latter would get headlines for lethal finishing; the former? lucky enough to get a line in the article saying "did well to keep out the effort". No wonder England has a dearth of good keepers, if thats the appreciation they're given.
Not trying to defend dear Green of course, though. If he's paid like 10000000x more than a poor SCT (Spec Cadet Trainee) like me, he deserves all that whack. I'd gladly take it for his pay :D
