This is what it would be like if you weren’t you anymore.
I do not even know how to start off my writing. So much have happened as we go on with our lives. I mean, how else would you describe in entirety a friend who went to the same primary school, then the same secondary school, and suddenly both of you are specialists in a military. [...]
Obviously I assume all food on the table are edible.
While reading through the past, I am republishing some hilarious moments caught on camera. Originally published on March 11, 2009 as Obviously I assume all food on the table are edible. The BBQ gathering Melati and some other colleagues who planned received quite a huge turnout. I will probably put up the photographs Thursday or [...]
Our lives are immeasurable.
If we ever started calculating and measuring how much we “owe” people and the same kind of favor we have to return to people, we could very well put a price tag on our heads. Today had me thinking and I just came to realized why I have not joined the regular force in the [...]
Snippets
1. I have some scenic pictures of Taiwan uploaded into my online gallery (http://photo.poopler.com) already! 2. It is not that I am an irresponsible pedestrian. Traffic signals for pedestrian in Taiwan is sometimes so obscure you don’t even know where you should look. On the weekend immediately after I returned, I crossed a road when [...]
Days were the those.
25 August 2011. “People; the country most precious resource.” A chapter in Secondary 4 social studies textbook read. One of the driver was planning on sitting for GCE O’ Levels examination and he brought along mathematics, geography and social studies textbooks here. It was my syllabi he is studying for. I flipped through the textbooks [...]
Touch and go.
24 August 2011. I see a change in me. I may dislike people. I do not always accede to their requests but I never push them away from me. Its costly to break the bridge of connection between people. I’ve always said, people whom I have loved left, people whom I have hated helped. We [...]
Wait to rush, rush to wait.
23 August 2011. The routine today was usual with nothing very interesting. The day started when the engine of the rover roared into life and we set off for the range. It was a usual ride with the Wing Commander, and I figured the remaining of the day will be equally boring and mundane. When [...]
Companionship on a foreign land.
22 August 2011. I realized I had 13 weekdays in a row. Today is the 14th weekday. We supported the exercise everyday since National Day. I woke up with a laziness that lingered on my body throughout breakfast because the routine is pretty much expected and there isn’t a hint of surprise or ‘challenge’ day [...]
Looking down on creations.
21 August 2011. Although the condition here is way below average, I have been sleeping pretty well these nights. I guessed its because the breeze here at night is chilling and I loved a cool weather. No blanket needed. Its only when you’re out that time passed so fast. A day happens in a split [...]
Yellow sand storm.
20 August 2011. Let the fuckin’ countdown begin! We are officially six days away from a Rest & Relax (R&R) period in Taipei and nine days away from arriving back in Singapore. Now we are talkin’. My alarm went off ten minutes after five o’clock this morning. Everyone was still asleep but the sun shone [...]
