[010407] Aprils Fools Day

April's fools Day.. i wonder whoever came up with this dumb notion of a day when they decide that on this elected day, pranks and tricks are to be played and carried out on family, loved ones, friends and just any one around you.. geez.. grow up fellas... the best example of this was when i logged into my NUFCsg site and guess the shock (some relief and joy as well) when i saw one of the topic heading as Glenn Roeder Resigns as NUFC manager.

Only for me to later realise it was a fake article with fake BBC news credential some more.. chey... make me happy only... thou shant fool around with people's emotions ya? ah, my 20 seconds of hope.. faded...

Yesterday was a landmark record, i actually reached home shortly after 0130 hrs... wow! yeah i know... yesterday was an okay day at work.. not as packed as usual and i actually met 2 friends whom i've not seen for quite some time... small world indeed... well obviously, we are living in singapore... but the same questions were posed back to me when they knew i was still in NS, "then how come, you're here?"

Im at marche masquerading as the Kitchen staff! cool huh?! DUH... of course im working lah... it seems everybody's always asking me about how come im working when im in NS... oh wells.. obviously, the pitiful allowance that the force gives me is hardly enough to sustain myself especially when i dun get handouts from my mum no more... so yep, i had to work to make ends meet so to speak.. Norman's first reaction was, "What the f--k u working for? Stay home and relax lah! Enjoy ur weekends!" erm... norman.. it's not possible...

speaking on allowance, a fellow instructor has embarked on an epic quest to better the livelihood of BRTC instructors with a proposal to be submitted to the management... as grand as the scheme maybe, im afraid it will just fall on deaf ears... we are just pitiful insructors... no welfare, no benefits and no previlages... if they could justify denying us an allowance in return for a 'better' testimonial, i hardly think they would ever consider looking into the rest of our concerns... we are just NSFs... really sad to be the wet blanket but yep, that's what pessimists and realists are there for... it's all delusions that we hold - delusions that the force does care for its own... yeah right...

DELUSIONS
There is no greater Joy than soaring high on the wings of your dreams, except maybe the joy of watching a dreamer who has nothing to land but the ocean of reality.

we all dream of a better future especially in camp... i guess in camp, i need only to live by 2 philosophies, "Be chill, Be cold, Be cool" and "suck it up"... no point going against the system or fighting to change it for good cause it'll never work especially when the culture is deeply embedded in a NSF/regulars conflict....

DREAMS
Dreams are like rainbows. Only idiots chase them.
Dreams will forver be what they are. Dreams.

But i do hope he succeeds, afterall who wouldnt want to work in a better paying environment with more recognition? I would.
