Journeyed my way to paya lebar, so far away, cos i the furtherest i go is central and mostly only west side area. Wanted to meet jane at the mrt stn cos dunno how to go to the police center, but was very early, and so went to jalan jalan abit at the s'pore post center (btw it is a shopping center). During the wait, figured out how to agar agar go there liao, but since meet liao then wait for jane.

Reached the police center, saw some of the rest, kenneth and willie sitting outside the police center staircase (won't kena scold by the policeman for loitering meh?). Anyway, then went in and saw nora, chelsa and adrian all sitting at the lobby area. Obivously it was a sign for me to join them in the wait at the sofa seat. THen all of us waited for any "signs or omens" to tell us that the course is starting. Finally a pink shirt-ed guy came forward and asked whether are we here for the crime prevention course, and we nodded our head. We were then urshered up to 3rd floor for the course.

Being directed into a room full of crime prevention exhibitions, we are greeted by a lady and was asked to register our name. And the list has my corps' name inputted incorrectly...became Tampiness Sec...since when i studied or served in that sch? Still prefer Tanglin Sec leh...dun anyhow change my corps leh...(btw is the fault of NHQ). After registration, we saw and smell "old chang kee" and felt hungry, and so is the anticipation for the refreshment time. Hmm...esp adrian lah, cos he mentioned he wanted to eat the curry puffs, and sort of has "plannings" to get himself to more curry puffs.

Watch a video, then a talk. The talk was more fun than the video but starting of the talk was quite boring...maybe the instructor or the audience (which is us) or both still haven get over our sleep. Later part was interesting with quite a few of jokes. Then finally was the refreshment time, we enjoyed the refreshment and started interacting with each other. After that another video and the course ended...erm...my feeling was "like that nia?", cos they did not touch on how we should exactly conduct the course, but at least she said that the coordinator will provide us with more info. Either way lah, i already know most things abt the conducting liao, so i go like go for nuthing much leh!? But at least i got a cert to certigy that i'm a instructor for crime prevention liao!

After the course went for lunch at LJS with nora, chelsa and jane, then talk abit and we went off. Proceeded to my next destination, which is West Coast Park, quite difficult to go there from paya lebar leh, changed a few mrt and bus before reaching. Was lucky to meet up with my corps members, as they are walking into the park. Went to search for the "pit-less" pit, cos ei chien booked a BYOP pit, which stands for "bring your own pit". Everyone was complaining to ei chien for her "recommendations" lor, me too. The worst is can't find the pit, and ei chien dun exactly know where is it. After much commotion finally found the pit and prepared abit before we start bbq-ing. Went to start a fire, quite sucessful, and bbq-ed a few prawns and within minutes can smell the fragrance of prawns. Quite fun doing bbq-ing and especially with a BYOP, cos a number of pple walked past and we can hear them discussing wat are we doing. One of them was so loud that i pretended to talk to someone by saying..."bcos is BYOP". Obviously not many pple know of such thing leh...including me!

This is one of the few fotos of me at the bbq taken by shusian. Why choose this one with a "urh" expression, cos this is the only foto that is better looking. And bcos this foto doesn't make me look fat. See the "thing" on the grill...that's the prawns that i'm talking abt. Why you dun see anybody, cos i think they preaparing something or on my right side doing another pit.

The bbq was fun cos i find it fun and the rest are enjoying it too. But too bad lah...quite a number went back early...but that's the disappointment lah. Otherwise was a good event, great experience of a BYOP!

Woke up at 6.15 AM...wa biangz...when i was so tired from yesterday's bbq session, cos went home quite late. Prepared myself in 30 mins and journeyed down to HQ for the ceremony, later my regret for not spending more time preparing.

Reached liao, saw the cadets were there already, but cannot find my fellow log. So instead i start preparing some of the items first. Followed did the banner...by weiye and companies lah, while i do the seats. Wa lau they keep on changing the plans leh...make the cadets "go stun" and forward the chairs. Then finally all the logistic are done and it was time for the ceremony.

During the ceremony, me and afew other officers were toking behind and laughing at jokes, trying to entertain ourselves as the cadets make their way to the stage to collect their deserving badges. Upon Zone 7, then i was more attentive liao, "DEMANDED" (haha!) our zone members to clap loudly for their fellow peers and of course i also joined in the clapping team.

Finally the last cadet went up to collect her badge, hurrah, the officers including me. Then was tea reception together with foto taking, waited for our zone turn and went for the foto taking.

After that then realise i din style my hair, and i believed it is in a mess, OMG, how will i turned out in the fotos? Someone who juz got off his bed? OMG...pls remind me to style hair for all foto taking in the future! But still i hope they can send me the foto lah, even though i might looked like a FREAK, but still i wan to keep it as a keepsake, cos this is my first batch of cadets i helped them processed their badges.

At last was my eating time, after getting my food, got asked to help take foto for NH. After that back to my plate, then came annoucement for all officers for a group foto, diao!? my food! Took the foto liao, again back to my plate. Was looking for my corps members but cannot find them, cos wanna congrats them. Back was interupt by some other things...after that pple slowly disappeared and they started packing up. So after my food also went to did my packing up cos i'm in log mah. Oh ya...did a improvised table skirting with used cloth and double-sided tape and it turn up really like a normal looking skirting...good job leh...BA(Hon) in improvisation.

Gonna take this opportunity to congrat Cynthia, Ling Feng, Ei Chien, and Pearle for their hard work in earning the Chief Commissioner's Badge! So if any of you chanced upon this "great" blog imagine me shaking hands with me oh!

After the event rushed down to IMM for a lunch meeting with khee and lin. Ate at the popular HK food outlet outside daiso. Tried the recommendations from khee, and the food are quite good and the portions are alot. Juz the baked rice can already made me full liao, but we ate two side dishes and three deserts too. So full! And this is a treat from khee cos he said he gotten his bonus, btw a disclaimer...we din eat this much bcos it was a treat...bcos all this are ordered by khee.

So that shld be all to conclude for my two weekends liao, and i doubt i will have anymore to shared in the night time cos i'm feeling tired from the busy schedules liao. Need to do some hibernating in my room with the air-con switch on and leisure surf the net for interesting things or maybe have a couple of chats before i decided to go lay on my bed to sleep. BTW tml receiving my results...WAH...so nervous leh, scare got kena failure leh even though i think i did quite ok for all the assignments leh. but still will find it abit nervous leh. Probably the tiredness will drive it away...and PRAY PRAY i kena good grades...yeah..."OMG listern to this "poor boy" prayers".
