i was watching band of brothers this afternoon and i was strangely immersed into the setting of the show. i must say that it is one of the best ww2 shows out there.

how i wish i lived in that era. much better than training during ns i must say. isn't it wonderful to live each day, not knowing whether you would be able to see the light of tomorrow? i want to walk and fight on the frontlines, each day seeing new places far away from home. each time staying and harbouring in a place so foreign to me. each day moving forwards, no turning back.

to be honest, if i had to do that to protect my loved ones, i'd get up and fight.

in one of the scene, an enlisted man took out a photo, and it reminded me of us. how only that photo got me through the thick and thin. how i felt like crying each time i looked at it. but the only difference is that i'm proud to tell others about us, while you were too preoccupied with something else on your mind.

just to prepare for whats up tomorrow, sti has a high likelihood of moving up, provided it can shake off the dow's slide down. expect dow to continue on its path.
