Sister’s Graduation

Tuesday, July 25th, 2006

Ah. My younger sister graduated today. Took two days leave off work so that I could be her photographer for a day. Anyway, pretty proud of the fact that she has gotten first class honours and that she has gotten a teaching PhD scholarship. Looks like her brother got a lot to catch up. Ha ha.

Monday, July 3rd, 2006

The mission was to bring back as many durians as we can. We formed up at 01 0300hrs before moving in to the AO after a brief equipment inspection.

The operation was conducted in two phases. Phase 1 (0330hrs to 0500hrs): To scavage any fallen durians along the jungle floor. Phase 2: (0500hrs onwards): To hold ground and to wait for durains to fall.

As you can see in the subsequent photos, the mission was a great success.
