haha... got that song stuck in my head now... haha how werid... haha let's get juxtaposed, juxtaposed, just suppose i juxtapose with u... haha hmmm wat an uneventful day... did algebra today for studying... haha sian abt talking abt studying... haha hmmm wat everyone seems so busy on msn nowadays... haha so much so that even I feel detatched from the rest of the world too... haha oh well... haha anyway ying chen will be back next week... shld be meeting up with yuan sheng and her for lunch one of these days... haha or as caleb put it... haha the fellowship of the ring has fragmented beyond hope... haha gandalf aka ying chen is returning.. haha and he's frodo alone with thing ring... and though he din mention it... i feel guilty cos i wuz supposed to be sam... oops... accompaning him to the end... oh no... SORREE CALEB... waah i think no matter how many times i say also wun be enuff hor... haha nvm dun worry... i'll bake clara a cake as i promised... haha... hmmm life's pretty sian nowadays... dunno wat i want actually... haha maybe a bit of army is wat i need... haha yeah i need the sound of my 52 calibre howitzer guns to wake me up... haha i mean look even my blog's title is battalion salvo!!! hahaha ya man... haha i need to destroy stuff... hahha channel my destructive energies somewhere... hahaha
speaking of which... haha watched a documentary on napoleon today... haha interesting... they were analysing his defeat at waterloo... and i must say he's damn suay la... haha i would have tot he would haf won... haha anyway he's one of the first few pple in the world to truely give artillery it's PROPER title as KING OF THE BATTLEFIELD... haha but sadly his arty fire during waterloo wuz ineffective... haha well kinda tough to explain in a blog... haha but seriously.. i tot he shld haf pulled back when he discovered the conditions... and dug in... i mean regardless of the fact that he would haf to deal with the threat of the prussians linking up with the brits, i mean i believe his GRANDE ARMEE shld be able to take on the full might of their combined armies... in fact i think his arty batteries would have been able to wipe out most of the threats... well if in a situation where arty fire is ineffictive due to ground conditions, i think the best option is to dig in and wait for a better time to attack... no doubt he waited... but too short a time... cos i mean sending ground troops to attack uphill means he's already gonna sacrifice more troops.. and not only that... the brits were already well dug in on the reverse side of the slope... which gave them cover... and a comanding view of the terrain... haha but all sed and done... take nothing away from the duke of wellington... brillinat choice of battle grounds and placement of troops... haha...
actually i think military tactics is quite an interesting topic.. haha i remember something regarding how the tiny english fleet managed to defeat the spanish ARMADA in a war which as of now i cannot recall... haha maybe i shld go read up on it... haha just for fun.. haha okie.. i'll leave it here then.. while i read up... haha to those who are upset during this period, take care and cheer up.. life will get better... trust me... if not feel free to whine to me... i'm always ready to lend a helping hand or a listening ear... haha but for now... battalion salvo 20 seconds interval at my command 4 3 2 1 FIRE!!
