Went to the physio on reference from the medical officer for my hip problem..she told me that what i had was some wearing out of a padding of muscle that holds my tib..tibular..dunno what thigh muscle together. Wasn't exactly paying attention to the details..Apparently it can't really be cured, just relieved a little by doing "hip muscle strengthening exercises". Err..ok..
It's been around for more than a month, so i'm quite used to it already. Just a weird snapping feeling and a slight pain when i go up the stairs or up a hill. So i'll book out once a week for the next 3weeks to go for physiotherapy gym sessions. Which may not be a good thing..the sergeants will probably let me go only during periods of time when there isn't anything serious going on (a.k.a. SLACKING periods).
Anyway it's midnight now..was writing this while waiting for debrief, but now that that's over, i probably should go wash off the camouflage from my face and prepare for tomorrow's killer day. Need to wake up at like 5.20am..what's happened to that compulsory 7 hours of sleep huh..

Argh, didn't get to update my blog over the long weekend, 'cos was like playing around for the 1st 2 days, then on Saturday evening i get a letter saying that i've been shortlisted for NUS medicine..which's great except that i had to prepare so many documents at the last minute..personal statement, blah blah..and i have to mail everything in by the 20th. So i had, like, 4 days notice. Great. 3 of those days being spent in camp. Even better. Ahwell, i'll be fine with anything if i can get the university place in the end. Only have myself to blame that i didn't prepare all of this sooner. Then again that's not very fair..i'm pretty much a..late bloomer..as far as interest in medical studies is concerned.
Back in camp now, and it's late, so i'd better go sleep. Lights are supposed to be off now, and i've got an early early wake up call tomorrow. Time to take a shower..
[Note..just managed to get my internet back after 1 day of stoppage..more posts coming up soon..i'm currently suffering from a lack of something..I think it's called "time"..:\]
