Our body's natural fail-safe mechanism

I went to accompany my brother to the hospital today, to go and check his torn ligament tissue in his left knee. And this is what I have learned today.

Do you know, that our body has a natural fail-safe locking mechanism? Imagine this: You are running, or jogging, or playing futsal, whatever. Suddenly, you twist your ankle, or torn your ligament as such in my brother's case. Your body will sense such occurrences immediately, and without even telling your brain, that particular area of your body will go into lock down. The muscles and tissues surrounding the hurt area will begin to be alerted of such injury, and began to swell, causing the movement in that area to be limited, and possibly even to be shut down immediately. This is to resist your body to inflict further damage, and to protect that injured area from further injuries. As a result, the injured area is now protected by its very own cocoon of protection.

Cool heh?

Have you ever read something so hypocrite, you feel like vomiting?

I have. 5 minutes ago.

Damn girl, you are so full of yourself.
We all know the truth.

Pity.
Right.

The Primary Law of Warfare: Murphy's Laws of Combat

You are not Superman.

Suppressive fire won't.

If it's stupid, but works, it's not stupid.

Don't look conspicuous. It draws fire.

Never draw fire. It makes everyone around you nervous.

When in doubt, empty the magazine.

Never share a foxhole with anyone braver than you.

Always keep in mind that your weapon was made by the lowest bidder.

If your attack is going well, it's an ambush.

If you can't remember, the claymore is pointed at you (the claymore is a flat mine that is set up and pointed at the enemy, unless you set it up in the wrong way).

All five-second grenade fuses are three seconds.

Try to look unimportant. The enemy might be low on ammo.

If you are forward of your position, the artillery will be short.

The enemy diversion you're ignoring is the main attack.

The easy way is always simple.

The important things are always hard.

When you have secured an area, don't forget to tell the enemy.

Incoming fire has the right of way.

No combat-ready unit has ever passed inspection.

No inspection-ready unit has ever passed combat.

Teamwork is essential. It gives the enemy other people to shoot at.

If the enemy is in range, so are you.

Friendly fire isn't.

Anything you can do can get you shot, including doing nothing.

Make it too tough for the enemy to get in, and you can't get out.

Tracers work both ways.

The only thing more accurate than incoming enemy fire is incoming friendly fire.

Radios will fail as soon as you need something desperately.

When both sides are convinced they are about to lose, they are both right.

Professionals are predictable, but the world is full of amateurs.

All-weather close support doesn't work in bad weather.

The bursting radius of a grenade is always one foot greater than your jumping range.

The only terrain that is truly controlled is the terrain upon which you're standing.

The law of the bayonet says the man with the bullet wins.

REMF (rear-echelon motherfuckers, or noncombat troops) is everywhere.

The best tank killer is another tank. Therefore, tanks are always fighting each other and have no time to help the infantry.

Precision bombing is normally accurate within plus/minus one mile.

Cluster bombs from B-52s and C-130s are very, very accurate. They always hit the ground.

Murphy was 11 Bush (11B is the US Army job code for basic rifleman).

Perfect plan aren't.

The easy way generally gets you killed.

The side with the fanciest uniform loses.

Armored vehicles are bullet magnets, a moving foxhole that attracts attention.

If you are short of everything except enemy, you're in combat.

No plan survives the first few seconds of combat.

Ammo is cheap; your life isn't.

It's easier to expend material in combat than to fill out the forms for Graves Registration.

If you can't see the enemy, they still may be able to see you.

Final protective fire doesn't

You can win without fighting, but it's a lot tougher to do. And the enemy might not cooperate.

I'm currently in the middle of completing a thesis on the topic 'Recruitment and Selection' for a master student.

I'm using the Harvard system, which stated that a paper must be consisted of at least an introduction, a literature review, a discussion, and a conclusion.

For the literature review, I'm doing a case study which compares the R&S of three countries, which are Egypt, Ireland, and United Kingdom. Plus a study on the Hispanic overview on the matter.

On the discussion, I will then further demonstrate the techniques, the strategies, the procedures, and the challenges faced by organisations dealing with R&S.

All this is done with a limit of 15 pages.
I don't have any qualification either than SPM (at the moment at least).
And I'm doing all this without ever leaving my room.

How fucking cool is that.
Hey, if I don't brag about myself, who will?

I should be getting a certificate out of this. I've done thesis for master students ranging from the management field to human resource to facility management. I've done final year project reports for mechanical engineering student, hotel and management students, accountancy students. I've written reports, assignments, essays, even constructing the whole text of a forum. I've been checking papers written by others to pass the watchful eyes of their English lecturers. I've researched about a subject I don't have any clue about, and that person still get an A and obtained their diploma and degree. Even my thesis for master student gains recognition and approval from their lecturers and mentors.

And I am only a SPM holder.
Shit.
