Looking for a light

I havent been this tired in a super long time, and its sunday somemore, yesterdae was election duty, which stretched to about 13 hours in total, though it was manageable thanx to the reasonable company I had, a good supervising officer, and a reasonable venue. In a funny twist of fate, I was on duty at Pasir Ris Crest Sec, which was right in front of Jolyn's house. Sheesh man, by 8 at night I was wishing I had taken her offer of dinner,instead of slogging it out. The uniform is too thick man, much too thick, I coildnt tahan, had to take it off everytime I took a break.

But it was quite interesting looking at the whole counting and voting process so closely, too bad my constituency at the time was Pasir-ris Punggol, which is the 2nd largest constituency with about 178 000 thereabouts, so counting took damn long, and so there we were, 5 guys and a girl in uniform, courching over a handphone trying to listen for the results. Finally, the results were announced and we were off.

A few things stood out for me yesterdae.

The country's force is going down the drain when in a recee of the compound before deployment the one thing the officers looked out for was a place to smoke.

You've been recalled for reservist too early when the rest of the ppl around you look realli old, and everybody keeps asking if your still in NS.

I dont mind ppl talking in chinese around me, I can still understand, but when they speak in Hokkien I'm totally pooped and seriously no offence to anybody but the language sounds ah sounds quite crewd, cos evry other syllable is stressed, and raw.

I thought my stamina is damn poor, but the rest of the guys even worst sia, realli look super shack after like 5 minutes.

Adidas pls come and make police uniforms, i need dri fit material man. Cannot tahan.

Ok i gotta go and get a start on work.

Out.
