It has been a long time...

Since i last blog a proper post... not tat my other posts in between were inproper though...

this week everyone in the college was quite busy preparing for the graduation of the students at ISTANA...

monday went to pasir panjang to return empty beer containers and bring back new ones... as its 20L... its quite heavy with the metal casing... 3 in total i have to bring back... one twist is tat the vehicle, a mini bus which is not a bus at all, need to top up petrol.... it took nearly an hour to do so... thus delaying a bit of time as it was in afternoon... so coming back late may result in mi missing the evening ferry bus.

err... tuesday... hmm... think i was preparing the certs for 112 students...

wed... horror... i was out on dispatch at 9am... but i reach back camp at 5pm...!!!! felt like i was being played... haiz... anyway... the story goes like...

i was supposed to visit 2 places... pasir panjang to return docu... then kallang pudding to collect some pluques.. the vehicle came at ard 9am... set off... not much delay except the traffic... sent the docu at pasir panjang... head off to kallang pudding... here comes the trouble...

to reach tat area... we have to take PIE... but as we are in queensway area... the driver tot he knows the way... so he went on driving... and he rode onto AYE... and continued... passed marina we did... ECP... sirens ringing...!!! lolz.. then he realised that he was on the wrong express way... we went off one exit and pulled over to consult the street directory... then after 20 mins... we decided to go by the long route instead of the faster expressway towards our destination... while reversing... our vehicle were like head on with a SBS bus... well he bus driver let us turn back to our lane 1st luckily... lolz..

well... along the way... the driver continue to make wrong turns here and there... about 2 or 3... U-turns and alternative routes were taken after quick consultation of the map... finish... we reach kallang pudding at near 10++.. near 11am...

Went up... onli to find another situation awaits mi... drama lor...!!! the wooden box for the pluques have not arrive yet... it was due this morning... but calls were made... and they say tat they stuck at the customs... excuses or not i dunno... i juz now tat the vehicle onli indented till 1pm... and they say tat the items will onli reach ard 2-3pm... haiz.... no choice but to abandon the mini bus lor... he driver claim tat its the 1st time he drove someone out but not bringing him back to camp... haiz... there's a first for everything...

so... i got not choice but to wait... coz my CQMS instructed mi to wait... i no choice... i'm juz a PTE... it was 11.30am... i consult the map onli to find no shopping centre or sort nearby... sian½... bo bian... walked alone ard a strange and unfamiliar place looking for my lunch... by the time i finish lunch there's still like 2 hours to go... bought a newspaper and read till 1pm and went back...

the wooden boxes came... but it was nearing 4pm... well off the timing they gave mi... took taxi back juz in time to take the ferry bus to JP...

thurs the graduation at istana... cock up at cookhse when collecting rations... the supporting unit ppl... thinking they got more ppl... pushed the organising team ard like no ones business... everyone was pissed to say it all...

today went to watched movie... the others got half day... i and the edd did duty and reach back camp at 12am last night... roon picked us up... have breakfast and head over to PS to meet the others... onli to find ourselves the 1st to arrive...

the movie was SINGAPORE DREAMING... well... sg film... full of hokkien... quite funny... and saddening...

One thing tat always make mi emotional is scenes when the parents passed away... i dunno y... maybe deep inside mi... i'm afraid... very afraid of tat happening to... i'll be empty-minded... totally stunned... cry... run away...? can't remember when was the last time i cried... oh dear.. can't image... and dun wan to either... the mole near my eyes really makes mi an emotional person...
