Army Training

Mask on! Sock off! Ready and GO …… Run, run, attack!!

I’m out!! I’m out (with mass of Vegetable-Oil-Blood)!!!

Yes, that is Painball. I was invited by an ex-colleague, Paullie, to join a violent activity on last Saturday. There are nine of us (friend’s friend), one member from unknown, and all together we formed a team of ten.

It was my first time to play painball. I got no idea how to wear, what to bring, and what to do. When I arrived to the war site, everyone was wearing long sleeves shirt and jeans. However, I wore a short pants, and a thin T-shirt. Consciously, I found my attire “wasn’t suit for this game”. Okay, what does it mean by “wasn’t suit”? It means you still can involve in the game, but with lots of PAIN, PAIN and PAIN. Obviously, it was all Paullie’s fault. Eventually, I was shot on my knee and leg, and was bleeding in the first game.

For the 2nd and 3rd game, there were some outsider members (regulars) joining in. Yes, I can say it will be more fun with more people. I learned to be smart in the game. Hide, run and shoot accurately. Yeah, it was a good strategic to save myself in the uncertain game from opponent's attack. However, I was still one of the earlier man was kicked off from the game. I think it need lots of experience and practice to be survived. By end of the day, everyone was exhausted and dehydrated. We gave up continuing further round after the 3rd game.

Well, it was a fun game to play and hide in the bush. However, it needs lots of energy and patience especially when you are running under the sun. In additional, there are a lot of hidden vampires fly across, and extract a drop of blood from your body. To avoid it happens on you, I will recommend the player wears long sleeves and long pants. It not only can avoid from the mosquito bite; it can also reduce the pain from shooting. (bring mosquito repellent too!!)
Wound on my knee and leg
