today totally shagged out.. Blacky feel the full blunt of shift work in HQ.. first half was posted to portsdown.. little did i know that i and Blacky will be sitting at a shady area seeing inmates exercising!!! after that escort inmates out to throw rubbish and area cleaning for 2 hrs under the hot sun.. the worst is yet to come.. when it time to go back to base, he dont want to go back.. lol..

second half of the shift was getting activated by admiralty west prison due to a fire and riot exercise.. Blacky been black.. imagine the sun putting the spotlight on him for 1 hr.. and he nearly fainted due to heat stroke.. lucky i went back to base to play with him and splash some cooling water on him.. i think he feel shiok after a hot day work.. and also prehaps that he is also first time work full 12 hrs..

this is what i expect to do when im more familiar with my job scope.. still getting the hang of it.. out of nowhere getting a COR.. working in extreme weather..

Blacky has been working in changi sub base for the last 5 yrs where is a heaven to him.. so that why he find the going get tough when been activated in HQ..

i found an old passion been ignited in me.. that is reading comics.. im now reading slam dunk english version comics.. vcds stop at where they won the inter-school championship.. now the comics is continue on where they go on to win the national championship.. i cant stop ever since i bought the first book under the recommendation from my team-mate..

and finally, i got the china-con msg this morning.. this msg comes a little too late where the news reported about it yesterday night..

signing off with bolster hugging and salivia drooling in action................

i just received an email from my brother in christ regarding one of our church member was in overseas to attend a theology studies for 3 yrs..i was amazed at how other christians despite their disabilities, their shortcomings able to serve the God, whom they feared so much, faithfully with a breeze!! im utterly ashamed that i thought i have done my best to serve.. but these people exceed above their limits.. their actions make me think twice about my faith in God.. and making me realise that i have more to serve God in the coming yrs..

my friend told me that i only served the nation for 1 yr!! how could this be? well, our working life is work 2 days off 2 days.. 1 yr working.. the other yr is off.. you get off without telling the supervisors.. neither does the supervisor call you to report back to work or rush a report through.. but ever since i returned back to the team, i got more than what i bargained for.. i can claim extra hours off as i need to report early for my night duty at queenstown remand prison.. i get to work 6 hrs in portsdown before coming back to base to do anything you like..sleep, training with Blacky, bathe Blacky, wash kennel..

for the last 2 weeks, i sleep more than i work.. not that im complaining about my work scope is boring but my duty revolve around prison premises.. sit down stay.. get to doze off if i can.. hehe.. but as a result, i sleep too much that i donno what i need to do.. i think i need to tune my sleeping habit to a more regular time than sleeping irregularly.. not a very good habit to pick up though..

and i get to patrol this coming weekend.. saturday.. hehehe.. at Echo.. dont think will go to orchard.. most prob will be at bukit timah where most rich people live..

hmm.. my tagboard dont seem to be working despite asking for views and opinion regarding to my last post.. but there is an increase of people viewing my blog though.. haha.. oh well.. never mind..

Girls been princess while guys been whiny..?1?!

first off today..but im not tired.. donno why.. still as fresh as ever.. hmm.. yesterday at portsdown.. just by lying on a foldable chair in an open but enclosed area, mosquitoes begin their feast on me..

few days back, there is a survey been polled by the newspaper regarding about how girls think about guys and vice versa.. both sexes say that 70% of the women are behaving like princess while guys are whiny.. and the remaining 30%, half of them say that both sexes are mature..

now, been a neutral to this survey.. i will like to say to both of the sexes that took part in this survey.. dont expect too high to the other counterparts.. i wonder does this survey affect the thinking of the young singaporeans of watching a movie where the character act in a perfect role where personality and looks are click together? im kind of putting this example indirectly.. where people seem to have high expectation where looks are concerned.. "hey, look, chio bu coming!!" but we didnt know what her weakness are until we get to know her.. it seem to me that singaporeans are choosy.. be it in jobs, schools and especially people like girls.. i definitely have no exception.. even in my workplace, i tend to work with those people where i have worked before..

but if i were to take the poll, i will have side the guys side.. girls nowadays are acting like princess.. pardon me if is because of the recent situation.. girls score points on looks..but if character fails where they can take the easy way out by ignoring the person or avoid the problem completely.. will people accept this girl as a true princess? princess, no doubt, are also human beings who are imperfect, whose wrong decision could be condemned by the villagers..

guys been whiny.. is time for guys to say it out instead of keeping their mouth shut.. where do we get to see this kind of guys back in the day of our grandfather, great-grandfathers' times? whenever they get scolded, they just keep their mouth shut and carry on with work..

this post no doubt will open for debate or critics sharpening their knives on me.. there is no wrong or right answer to it.. everyone is entitled to their opinion.. im quite open about it.. time to let my tagboard work abit.. hehe.. kind of tired seeing those comments that been say 1 month ago..

from a mere listener in a conversation to a person caught between two sides.. i and my colleague are caught in a dilemma.. hai..donno what to say.. out of sudden, my team have an internal conflict.. have to wait for the Team Leader to come back to restore the peace before cracks are too obvious for the other people to see..

yesterday duty was a 6 hr duty at portsdown centre.. it was really a sit down stay.. no escort.. nothing..but lucky i bring something to read to kill time..

hai.. these days doesnt seem to have any nice movies that attract my attention.. star wars, an x-rated documentary "inside deep throat"..and other horror movies.. so off days are just sleep and sleep and sleep.. no activities.. call friends also have to wait until weekend.. as some of them are working, serving nation or studying.. sian!!

yesterday night was the most du lan night i ever had.. cant even sleep peacefully.. imagine an officer who is sick.. who is trying to switch off or trying to adjust the air con.. i dont mind he do that..but the worst is he did it when he have to switch on and off the lights.. 3 times no least.. kao..

first time saw people been sentenced to queenstown remand prison.. have to strip naked.. to search for drugs.. do some squatting to see whether they hid anything in their asshole.. and to do administration work, fully clothed of course.. when they strip naked, Blacky was looking at me, i looked back at him.. "why, dont tell me you also first time see people naked?"

argh.. 12 hrs without a hp? is like something part of me been missing.. but to substitute with an air-conditioned room with tv, radio make me forget about my hp..

this is what my 12 hrs shift in queenstown remand prison.. not much to do either.. have a free dinner at the tea-room.. watch tv till midnight.. and sleep the remaining of the time.. lol..

before the shift start, i was frantic to hear that hp cannot bring in.. but somehow my instincts kick in where my hp and wallet is in the locker to my room is just 2 metal gates away.. one of the metal gate is not lock.. as for the other metal gate i have to wait for the prison officer to unlock it before i can reach to my hp.. all in a legal way..and a truly give and take manner..

that all i have to say about my first 12 hr shift at queenstown.. back to dreamland..

why do people have to tell lies just to let others have the doubt? does telling lies able to get them out of trouble? or does it help to get the happiness that they want? i wonder by telling lies, what gain do they get to stand?

A quote by Mark Twain, "When in doubt, tell the truth"

hai.. by end of this month, every cinema will increase their ticket prices.. but i can consider myself lucky again that i work 2 days off 2 days.. so i can watch movie during weekdays..

these few days been dreaming about the same thing.. is like kinda of a nightmare to me.. is about a gathering where i get to see all the people that i dont wish to see.. i was very uptight, was looking for someone to talk, but wherever i turn, those people just look at me and smile.. yucks!! yucky!! yuckiest!!

someone ask me this, "what is your dream car?"

Me: "Toyota Rav 4 or Lexus RX 300.."

Him: "why not Ferrari or Lamborghini?"

Me: "siao.. how to speed? go abit only traffic light liao.. singapore max speed is 160.. and i think Ferrari or Lamborghini min required speed is 160 lor.."

Him: "no lah..not asking you to speed.. maybe drive around Orchard to show off mah.."

Me: "lol..do you think im a person who likes to show off.. drive this type of car in Orchard is like a sore thumb sticking out because other cars are all ordinary..moreover, who will really go and see on the road what car im driving.."

Him: "erm..whatever..no comments......"

wow..first day back to the team.. do base guard for half a day before taking Blacky out for Portsdown shift 2 duty.. in the morning shift, portsdown got 2 shift.. shift 1 is 0800-1400.. and shift 2 is 1400-2000.. the duty is just sit down stay for me.. lol.. half of the 2nd shift i was dozing off..

wonder why so many people sign on for police knowing that at the end of the day, the job scope is the same as security guard.. is it because of their passion to catch criminals? is it because of the job scope? or is it because of how they see people behave in the day time or night time? or is it because they want to see how people react with or without the presence of people wearing blue? or maybe is the ambition to be a law-enforcer? well, the list goes on..

as for me, this job is definitely not for me.. so pls stop asking me about signing on.. no matter how much MHA going to give me for my salary.. i will still say no.. is not the amount of money that able to keep me contented.. is the challenges that counts..

by jun, the whole deployment team A-D will be reshuffled.. even an ordinary SC like me not spared either.. to me, any team is fine with me as long as dont play fire with me by putting deployment at the same place.. i can work with anyone but dont create a profile that so-and-so are known to "eat" SC.. some names are been forward to me about this trend.. lol.. well, better to be safe than sorry..

i think im having memory loss.. is like seeing this person so familiar at some places, but yet have no memory where i have seen this person before.. it took me about 5-10 mins before i knew who that person is.. lol.. same goes to my church people.. they know my name but i totally forgotten about their names as i seldom come to church even since i posted to dog unit.. maybe im too preoccupied about current affairs in dog unit.. hehe..

oh well.. going to take a rest now.. tomorrow will be the night shift and will be doing portsdown the whole 12 hr shift..

yes.. oh yeah.. im indeed posted back to HQ and also back to my team.. haha.. cant wait to work with them again..

i will be doing prison duty at portsdown, queenstown remand prison, and occasionally ops javalin and division rounds.. im looking forward the last 2 duties.. haven really got a chance to wear uniform in town and a dog on leash..wahahha.. anyway there will be a chance..

hai.. guess those who particpating in Police Day Parade already get to see what my unit is doing.. though im not physically there, but i do know what is happening.. hehe.. i will definitely be there on the actual day cheering my unit on..

Inflation

golden village!! stop killing us with those price increase.. 9.50 for a weekend ticket.. you are the only one who increase the prices.. the others have not.. no wonder i saw so few people at golden village than other cinemas like cathay cineplex..

i think i have to watch movie at other cinemas than golden village.. golden village will be the last cinema in my mind..

tomorrow is the day where i will be posted.. hopefully i will get HQ and go back to my former team.. i not asking much..

i did some soulful thinking over the last 2 days.. and i feel that my NS life isnt that bad at all.. after i posted to k-9, i should considered myself lucky not to see some of my squadmates or posted to SOC.. and to be a dog handler put some icing on the cake.. at least it gives me some challenges.. i feel that God have reserve me for the best in terms of the treatment from my former team and my training team.. thanks God..

Growing up is a phrase of life

watch coach carter today.. very nice show i should say.. i like the way he quoted this, "growing up is about making decision and to live with the consequences.."

in my friendster profile, i wrote that im against procrastinating.. i think i no need to go through history or archives to know what im trying to refer to.. once is enough or will i get to see a second one? i donno.. but i hope not.. previously i have all the patience in the world.. but now is very difficult.. maybe is the way how singaporeans want it fast.. how i have come to terms about the corporate working world is really like that in such a way, im influenced to it.. or is it that i waited too long for an answer that never came? or is it i do really have the patience to go and wait?

well, as my officer has say when im still training to be a full-pledged policeman, do everything in moderation.. know the limits..

am i digging up the past? prob yes.. why.. because first time round was a question asked "what if you did something halfway and you dont have the confidence to carry on?" and hence, friendship was broke.. second time round was about what i blog, not even clarifying with me which part i was wrong and again friendship broke..

did i do something that is repeating itself.. or someone else is repeating the action? i think i let you, the readers, to judge for yourself..

bad news isnt really a bad news after all.. i email back to enquire about reserving a place in it on the advice from my buddy.. they replied back to tell me try again next yr..

lol, my friend's dad bring back a dog and her sister bring it for a walk and for no reason, after coming back from the walk, the dog bite her sister.. well, the dog is still adapting to the new environment and have to familiarise the surrounding.. as a result, they are now scared of the dog.. dont ever let the dog sense that you are afraid of the dog or else, the temperment will grow to such an extent visitors dont dare to come to her house..

this week weather is like a drought to me.. i have to bathe in cold water to feel the shiokness in it..haha..

secondly, good news is that i might be passing out as a dog handler as early as this week.. due to my trainer is going for a study visit to other country for "cadavar dog" who are trained to sniff out dead bodies..

did anyone drive before a "semi-auto, semi-manual" transmission car? our dog unit have this kind of car.. lol.. although i dont have the license to drive, i will like to have this type of car.. you can use manual transmission but when stopping or going off is auto-geared.. cool is it..

the new SOC uniform sucks.. sucks to the core.. sleeves cannot fold.. hai.. weather so hot already still want us to wear until like that..
