Damn, simulator shooting is terrible. I look through the rear-sight aperture and I can't see any fuck thing on the screen. It's a whole messy patch of black. The target is dark-coloured with a sand-coloured background, so it's supposed to stand out. Instead, black and orange merge mercilessly together against my eyesight.

We have instances where the targets will appear either on the left or right side of the boundaries of our lanes at random. Not being able to see clearly, I have to look up to spot where the target has appeared before taking careful aim. Now this wastes a lot of time, so I can't do a good aim and a good trigger squeeze. There is a technique for puling the trigger, so that it doesn't jerk the rifle and cause the bullet to fly off somewhere slightly away from your intended point of shot.

Sometimes I wonder how on earth I ever got my marksman badge.

We've got news that the Brunei trip might be postponed again. The advance party is flying out on 26 August instead of the 22nd as initially planned. So our departure will be delayed as well. Till when we're not sure.

So many things have not been done. Let's just hope that cancel this piece of shit.
