Oh man. I have a damn flu myself but at least I won't be having any tests yet for it to affect my performance. As for the broken finger.. Anyway you'll leave the place as a hardened warrior! (Maybe)
Edit: What do you mean swimming in snow for 8 hours? Are you in special forces or something?

Just annoying since now I'll have to be extra carefull with them henceworth. When they've frozen once they get a bad habit of doing it again.
We also had a first forest night. Man I had good laughs at that trip. We have a guy in our group who fell 7 times when skiing.
Only one other besides me could skii well with 30 kilos on his back and a kalashnikov at his hands. Downhills were nice. I carried our tent so I had 40 kilos of weight and quite the speed.

I've been quite well. Had a flue for too weeks, annoying sice we had our cooper's test, muscle tests, intelligence tests, psychologicals and radist test as I was sick so I got pretty lousy results. Hopefully not too lousy or they'll come back and bite me in the ass
And my left hand finger's froze at friday. Black friday as it's called. 8 hours of battle training. They didn't let us use good gloves. We had to use the official suit gloves.
-20 celcious, thin leather gloves, swimming in snow for 8 hours with a cold Kalashnikov in your hands is a great combination.
it's nothing.some of the elite unite in israel are guarding in winter without coats. and gloves? its unheard of

Learning to crawl again, max payne jumps, etc. literally swimming in snow for 8 hours.
Rangers, commando and reconnoissance company, specialiced in intelligence and fire-leading far behind(150 km) enemy lines. If crisis emerges we'll be doing intelligence behind enemy lines and also authorised to call in MLRS strikes that level anything and everything in a 400x400 meters area. in some cases we might get some commando missions but those are mostly left for special rangers. They're the dagger and we're the cloak.
After paratroopers, special rangers and diver's were the hardest unit in Finland. So yeah, special forces.
Our training includes such nice things as military police(dogs included) chasing us, swimming over a few hundred meters wide canal in winter, a week long forest camp where we get to sleep 5 hours and only get food for one day, walking 100 kilometers in two days in full gear(around 30-40 kilos) and other lovely activities.
BTW. we also have to learn to regognise every god damn war machine there is. Lovely list just for russian ware.
EDIT: Well Israel winter's are a little different than finnish ones. Yesterday was -31.

A lot of my friends are going in the Army for a year. Sucks cos I probably won't get to see or hear from them in a while. Although, I heard the money was quite good.

I was banned from the interwebs by my dad for being a WC3 (NOT WOW) addict. Now, I am back brimming with year of held back spam.
Be afraid.
Very afraid.
Not as afraid as SC2 and HoMM 6 being canceled, but still pretty afraid.

I'm not afraid, I can shush you if I have to
Maybe we should have one of the more fun debates in here, one of the ones that Father mentioned but weren't serious enough for the OSM - that could be entertaining
Winner gets to be Elvin's liaison, unless Elvin wins - then I'll have to come up with a new prize
