when my team leader called and told me to wear civilians to duty cause we were going to do an ambush, i was really damn excited. when we got to strap the pistols to our ankles, i was pissing in my pants with anticipation for the night. then came the briefing. we were doing an ambush for a bicycle thief. take the excitement down a notch. and we spent the night camped at some HDB void deck keeping eye on a bicycle some dist away. and what a bore it was. we caught an old man peeing in the void deck. that's about it.

seems everyone's leaving now. yishi, such, stef, rox, and bla bla the list goes on. when NS is over and the boys go, it'll be around this time of the year too. what an allusion to migratory birds and the seasons of migration. time to fly the coop and spread our wings baby, though some of us make take longer than others.

which brings me to the fact that im studying locally so i thought i might as well get to know what this country actually is about. i wanted to buy this book on politics in singapore and shit like that, so when i rifled thru it, i chanced upon a section on the speakers corner- "a world renowned area for free speech". and i put the book down s-l-o-w-l-y, and took and step back, before turn 180 and running away, hopefully all the way to another nation, but unfortunately only as far as a few steps.
