28 March, Fast March
Did I just remind you about the fast march you went through during your dreadful NS days? Well, it did remind me of the 5km fast march I had right on the first night as a sniper trainee. My officer was nothing but a piece of crap. Okok, I shouldn't be carried away.
I'm talking about this month, March, which gonna pass by so quickly. Before I knew it, I'm gonna pay my late grandparents a visit this coming weekend since last year. A few huge issues happened lately, and I hope there will be sunshine after all the thunder storms. First, there were some political matters going on in the glass tower that the glass did show some hairline cracks, then the demise of my uncle who was a great chef in my family tree. Of coz' there were other stuffs going on which I do not wish to highlight.
I've been clearing my old CD archives lately and came across the song "Until the end of the world" from the soundtrack of the Japanese anime "Slam Dunk". I can still remember clearly how that MTV looks like, and that brought me back to watch "Slam Dunk" again. By the way, there are one hundred and one episodes. So if you're keen to watch, I suggest watching it from veoh rather than youtube.
Anyway, I'll be looking forward to my short getaway trip next week! Can't wait to inhale those sea breezes again... Ya, I know I can get some over at East Coast too, but I prefer the one from South China Sea.

22 March, Speak for yourself
"I represent no one but myself. I speak for no one but myself. I have my own responsibilities, I bear my own consequences."
Do you think your life will change by keeping quiet? Do you think there will be someone to defend for you? I'm telling you to be real, to be rational, to unearth matters that are meant to be made known, and sweep the grudges or dissatisfaction under that dusty carpet. Let's handle things professionally. Be a man, and do the right thing!
Everybody has their own perspectives, but that doesn't mean you have to follow unless it's a reasonable thing to do. Question when you have doubts, clarify when you're unsure. Seek for the truth, or at least something reasonable. I know sometimes, when we can't handle the truth, we seek for consolation.
In short, let the "reasonable man" in you do the talking, and switch your "emotional-lady" to mute for the time being.

17 March, A treasure hunt?
Ever participate in a treasure hunt? It's fun, isn't it? With the given clues at every stage, means you're nearer to the pit of gold. We're playing this game today with the new 'hints' released by our authority.
Quote from CNA "Police have released more details on escaped Jemaah Islamiyah leader Mas Selamat Kastari's facial features. They said he has a mole on the right side of his cheek, below the eye, and has thin lips. Since his escape, police have also highlighted to the public that he has a limp on his left leg, visible only when he runs or walks fast."
So does that narrow down your scope? Will there be more "hints" in the next few days?
Oh c'mon, this ain't any BIG prize to be won or what. Why can't they released full details right from the start? You mean you don't know how he actually looks like when he was in custody?

14 March, The man-made "tsunami"
Still remember how that killer waves murdered countless people back on the 2004 boxing day? It was brutal! Most of us may not have experienced the real tsunami, but there are some who experience the repercussion and the pain still lives in them today. That's the power of nature. It comes almost silently with great impact, and leaves the pain and sorrow as residue.
So what about man-made "tsunami"? I'm referring to organizations, I'm referring to the corporate structure. Any restructure or changes in the top management, it will somehow affect the army down the hierarchy. The General still has to maintain the morale of his troops while the restructuring is going on. So, what's gonna happen next? No one will know until the "Ministers" have decided to move their seed.
No worries~ We won't have a situation of "check-mate" here. Only "sound" check up there...

13 March, The new pickup spot
Nope, I'm not referring to any pubs or clubs for you to pick up girls, for hook up with any guys. I'm spot-lighting it at our taxi stands.
I suppose everyone should know by now about the new regulation of boarding or alighting a cab in the central area of SingKaPor. Isn't this making life difficult for both commuters and taxi uncles? Take for example last week when I was picking up some bulky parcel in town. I had a hard time fetching a cab, coz I wasn't at any taxi stand. So, am I suppose to carry the humongous parcel and find a taxi stand under the scorching sun? Will you do that? Ya, your mind is shaking now.
Another case I heard from ah-ger, a commuter in CBD was in a rush to another building and hailed a cab at a taxi stand in front of his office building. He got on the cab and told the cabby his destination. Guess what, he was dropped right at the same taxi stand after a round-about trip, coz' that was the nearest taxi stand the cabby could find. How silly isn't it? So, did that smart-aleck actually thought about these issues before coming up with his fantastico idea? Well, obviously for the position that smarty is sitting right now, he probably owns a car and don't need a cab. And maybe in one way or another, they're trying to push people to take train or buses instead. Why? You go figure it out!

12 March, eDVOCACY
Wrong spelling? Not exactly, coz' I've evolved it from "advocacy"under the influence from our new media.
I'm sure many of you had received those forwarded emails about helping a poor kid who is suffering from terminal disease, warning of an unhygienic food-stall that their mee-poh comes with cockroaches' legs, or some chain letters shit. I received one about Jesus this morning. That wasn't the first one, and I'm sure it won't be the last. I had quite enough of those "How to be a good man" stories especially from those Christian advocators. Don't get me wrong, I'm not against Christianity. It's just all those forwarded stories that were actually preaching me to wear a cross upon my chest sickened me.
I think those Christian advocators, who conjured so many stories, are pretty good script writers. They can tell you lots of real things that are happening in current time and link back to their propagandas. I think it really drills down to a person if you wanna talk about morality.
So... I do appreciate bedtime stories, but please spare the "Jesus will save you" concept.

6 March, An evening with the DJs
Pictionary - A game that anything you draw, can be anything anyone can guess of. According to the Pictionarians and "King of Zoosk", you have to think stupid in order to win the game. Guess my team thought in the most stupid way and won the game eventually. Close fight huh~ Hmm... it was beginner's luck I suppose.
You don't need to be a Picasso in this game, all you need to do is to draw whatever shit that comes to your mind. It can be a total confusion and that's the fun part! For example, the word is "temple". YK drew a mosque and I drew a church! Hahaha!! WTF!! And I thought the drawing we did somehow will be influenced by our own upbringing and culture. Hmm... maybe it did reflect our multi-races culture huh~
For whatever it is, please remember... "Friends are forever, it's just a game."

4 March, Hachoo Nachoo
It has been drizzling these few days and Nacho wasn't at his top form last weekend. All thanks to Jat for bringing him out in the rain. Fortunately, he's back to his active self when we lure him out of his 'cave' with his munchies.
Our motherly Carrine has flew to Norway to team up with her hubby. How nice it is to have a sea-view right in front of your apartment, and I know Toughy will do anything to go and live over there with Cpt. Jack. So our next reunion will be on our convocation day isn't it? Hmm... maybe we should go back to substation again, I love the roast duck pizza leh! *slurp~*
Talking about food, I'm getting hungry...

1 March, What's underneath?
So... that JI leader Mas Selamat Kastari had escaped from the detention centre with a limping leg. Are you taking that piece of news as it is? Or did you actually question the authority or explore the possibilities?
Do you really think that he slipped off with his limping leg when we have so many "fighting-fit" police officers? Oh ya, recently they have this career commercial showing the transition of a sprinting athlete to a police officer who is chasing after a robber. Hmm... I guess they need to train on their timing again if a limping man can slipped off their clutch just like that.
Think again, maybe the escape was planned. Well... there might be a possibility of 'releasing' him, so that he will limp back to his den and lead the authority to his accomplices. You never know what the advance technologies can do to a person mann~ Especially the nano-technologies. You know what I'm saying~
Anyway, our home team are combing various areas and he will soon be found (dead or alive), coz I really think it's almost impossible for him to flee to our neighbours since we all know that how tight our national securities are. Let say you're in the custom... You say "bomb", you gana. You come or return from China with fever (possibility of SAR lor), you gana. You bring in a fresh pack of cigarette, you also gana. So with that face pasted on almost everywhere and anywhere, I'm sure he will gana BIG TIME!!
