After pulling a double shift yest and waking up at 11.30am today. I feel damn bloody old la. Hahaha. 

Because of what we can do for our Malaysian friends.. Volunteered for the ‘shift’ of 8pm to 4am this morning just to help check in our people in the hotels here. 

Lots of thoughts running through my head as I was preparing to get out of the house. When we were waiting for them to come and check in. When we were looking at the countdown timer for the lockdown. When we saw them and their paper bags and plastic bags of clothes for 2 weeks. When we saw how stoned some of them were having to brave the 4 to 5 hours queue. When we saw how shagged some of them were having to pull their luggages across the causeway. When we saw some of them trying to stay strong and be brave as this is their first job and they are very new with us. When we saw how grateful they were for having a ‘holiday’ (which some of them called these 2 weeks). When we saw their reactions in arriving in the hotel and having a place to call ‘home’ for the 2 weeks. 

So much feels. So much pain. So much sacrifice. 

I thought this photo caption was well done. But when I read the comments this morning.. I was 🤬. 

There are always people who will be:

Self centred. 

Self entitled.

Brainless. 

Selfish. 

Thinking they are superior. 

Of low EQ. 

Those who thinks God is their saviour (no matter what religion).

And I’m glad they are not my friends. 

How many cases are linked to socially irresponsible beings from the church and mosque gatherings? And the one from Jurong Safra? 🤬 Makes my blood boil just thinking about it.

Maybe if I’m like my brother. I’ll be in the above category. But I’m thankful that I had the chance to be working where I am. Coz it taught me more than just good manners. It made me appreciate the little bits of life and the people around me. 

And during these 2 weeks, as much as possible, I will not post my happy moments coz consciously I know what a lot of them are going through and even though one may argue to say it is their choice, given the same situation, I will probably do and feel the same as them. 

This is not the period to show off how ‘wealthy’ we are, how lucky we are. But about us united as one, against the 🦠. 

Photos can wait. Living in the moment can’t. 

Hooked up with a friend who stays in Malaysia but due to the current situation is now here for dinner this weekend with the JCP-ians.

... ... ... ...

Just a lot of feels and random thoughts running through my head. 

Hope that everyone stays well.. Stays safe.. Stays healthy!

Wanted to post a couple of nights ago.. But sleep was definitely more important than this. 😂

Met with the 夜宵kaki less the drinking kaki. Hahaha.. Was a nice long (smelly) dinner that had me drinking quite a bit of soju - neat. 😄

Work has been mundane.. With the split teams taking effect for I think 3 weeks already. So it’s all projects and no routines. Which made it kinda boring. But ah wells. 

People seems to be going back to the usual routines before the Covid-19. Less those of us who are doing split teams. But life still goes on.. 

Feet getting itchy.. But the earliest trip is in April.. Next one in May/June. Then Sept and then Dec. Ah wells. 

Cannot anyhow run to JB or Malacca even. Such a pain in the ass. Hahaha. 

Ok la.. Time for bed before the medical tmr! 😂
