A Penny Please!

Insp A Di




A lot has happened over the pass few days.

Firstly, Mr Wong Kiow, my sec sch teacher passed away. A shocking news to receive during work. Received tons of sms (ok only 3) from juniors and seniors. When to pay respect at his wake. Kinda like a gathering in a way. Would have loved to stay longer but xia was hungry. Oh well. I can still rememeber Mr Wong's thick eyebrows, colour coded polo tees, feirce look and fatherly smile. Although not very close, he has always been the symbol of JSS, teaching there even before it existed. A great loss to the sch and students. Thank you Mr Wong.

As ORD date draw nearer, i'm getting more nervous and jittery. Seem to have doubts and worries about going back to school. Fees is one problem (no news of scholarship from MDA) well the rest seems to be just uneasy feelings. Maybe its a wrong choice made?

Gerald's wife gave birth to a son who shares his birthday with him. CONGRATS!! Gerald is the staff sgt working with me. Been like a big bro to me. Haiz. Kinda sad to be leaving PAD. Seem like not long ago that i just joined. Now starting to clear leave but can't seem to let go of work. Maybe i should just go as Lenn say, just push it aside.

Having thoughts of just throwing everything down and go on a trip. Everyone has somewhere to go but always no money. Taiwan, Redang, Malaysia, Thailand, Aussie. Haiz. Why can't I just put down!!!

Met up with xiaoming, shuhua and wilson after so long. Went back to NPCB concert. Realize how old I'm getting. How i miss band, both NPCB and JSSMB. My heart has always been with JSSMB and Mr Tan. How i miss my jrs, my seniors, my clarinet, music making and all the wonderful times we had. Time machine where are you?

Too much stuff to write. Currently my mind is almost sluggish. I think I'm dying. Or maybe i wish to be dying. Who knows? Who cares?

Been catching up on my movies. Missed so much over the year. I really want to catch Smell Of Rain, too bad its down already. Someone let me know how to get hold of it. Ah lec and Ning suppose to come up with the movie list for the must watch movies. I only remember MI3, Xmen 3 and Da vinci, of which MI3 is a good action spy movie and da vinci is so holllywood. It could have been so much better. I am going to splurge on movies till my school starts.

Great SIngapore Sales is here. What a timing. To start and month end and finish around payday. HOW HOW HOW? Hope i can get stuff i wan like my canvas shoes, sweater (adidas or puma) and woredrope for school (sticking up on polo tee, berms and shirts - preppy look). I need money. Any sponsors

Faith needs renewal. I seek Your face. I seek Your voice. I seek You.

Penny worth of my thoughts, Please pay up now.

Friday Night Fever

Friday went out with OCT bros to make up for the KTV sessions we missed for past few weeks due to work. As usual, police timing kick in again (1 hour). This time round, we went to clementi because Ivan say we always travel to North, this time they come West.

KTV was as usual, only it seems shorter this time. Tried the few songs I wanted to learn, think I'll have to revise my playlist. Dunno why suddenly mention about Superband then everyone was like "YAH!!! LOOK LIKE HOR!!" (shall not reveal too much). End up, actually Lyn knows him and she has confirmed it. Maybe i should change name. NOT!

After that, went for dinner at Holland V (wanted to go FOS but too late) so end up at the "Famous" XO Crab Beehoon. Went there with ah yew, james and Gab (sec sch mates) before but couldnt remember what we had except for the thai chicken. So we order what else look (in name) nice on the menu.

Our order:
Thai Chicken
Salad Prawns
Sambal Kang Kong
Hotplate deer meat
XO Crab bee hoon

End up all sucks execpt for the chicken. Must have ordered wrongly cause with gab they all, it was not bad. Anyway proceed to chill out after that. End up in TCC as "they" dont drink. So was crapping and talking till they chase us out. Learnt alot about stewarding (tempted). pros and cons. At one point, ghost stories was flowing like water then Ning scared. Haha. Well, spent a while to suan Ivan too (paiseh hor).

Oh! the waiter. The waiter who served us was like Hm... He talks kinda slow and when taking our order totally ignored the rest and listened to Lyn only. (well, ning alec and me noticed) So Lyn had to "translate" my orders to him cause he totally ignored me. He seem like he's hitting on the girls at the next table before taking our order though. Interesting crew they have.

After they close, we wanted to drink WHICH 'they' were fine with (shocked) but wala2 was closed. So end up went for supper. Dunno why end up at Al-Azhar (all Ngee Ann students by the way, except for Ning, AJC) So had my pisang prata and Teh Cino. Played some stupid games (bang bang bang, balck magic and johnny woosh etc) I think lyn was mad, she keep treatening ivan to tell her the answers. Hahaha. Super Fun!

In the end, went home on cab with Nic and Lyn. Sent the ladies home first so was Teck Whye, JW and JE. After telling the King Kong joke, Nic alighted and Lyn bombarded me with more jokes. I had one left unsolved when she alighted which was suppose to keep me awake cause I wouldn't sleep peacefully without knowing the answer. But being the clever boy that i'm, i solved it before i reached home. THANK YOU!

Overall, it was a wonderful night. Somehow everyone was okie with staying late. I would be better if we had transport (Ivan to note) muhahahaz. Let's do it again.

(Note: If you want to know more about the games and jokes, let me know.)

(Note: Amazingly, being the photo sluts that we are, no photos were taken, except for alec and ning)

Finally Over

As title says... General Elections is finally over. Hurray. For the past few days, everyone in the dept has been tied down by GE duties. To make it worst some big shot is visiting us, this will be the busiest period following Police Week. Anyway, nowadays, my estabe (duties) seem to have expanded to become SO PAD. Been helping other divs alot latel. Not that i mind. Ah Ong is a great friend.

TODAY (06052006) went shopping with Alec n Ning. Ivan put up out due to some shitwork from his boss so there goes KTV. So went to town to try and spend my 50 bucks Taka voucher. Wanted to get a Adidas Sweater but sold out and nothing else fancied me so we went off. Was in Puma store when we saw this COOL SWEATER, though im a Adidas fan, the sweater looks too cool to miss. So we went back to Taka to see if they carry it. In the end, they don't have but got a cardigant, vest thingy after SO LONG.

Proceed to Dinner, was deciding on where when finally settled with Big O at Wheelocks Place. The food was amazing (some seafood platter thingy for 2 and Pan Seared Sirloin Steak with My O My and pot of Rosehin tea for dessert) and good service to go with. Hahah it was kinda funny.

Service Incident #1
We were deciding what to eat when we saw the glass notice on some set. We were sitting behind it so we had to try and decipher the words backward. We were like almost done with the first few lines when the waiter came and say super politely, "That's for lunch (pointing at glass notice #1) and the special is sold out (pointing to glass notice #2)" So we were like, "Oh Okie Thanks" then after awhile he came and gave recommendations to us

Service Incident #2
During dessert, was pouring the tea when the teapot cover dropped. The waiter nearby was like [ " ]!!! and came to pick it up and all. Thing to note, we didnt show like annoyed faces when it happen. Merely shocked and laughed. So the waiter came, placed the lid back and subsequently poured tea for all of us. He even help us refilled with hot water after seeing that the pot is empty. He also explain why the lid fell, even though there's no need to, or so i thought.

Service Incident #3
When My O My (cheesecake wth chocolate ice cream and melted dark chocolate) was served, a small bug appeared, we were like shocked and subsequently amazed and fascinated. Was playing with it when dunno why we gave sort of big reaction. The waitress nearby was shocked by us and then by the bug which was evacuated with a towel.

The waiter and waitress were super friendly and super alert/jumpy which made dinner more fun. Definately going back again.

Then we went to clarke quay area to look for chill out spot. Dbl O was pack so on to Eski Bar which after finding it empty was skipped. End up at 7-11 with Super Slurpy and home ward bound. As discussed, Boat Quay is striked off chill out list.
