Today spent my day in the morning till late noon at bedok reservoir, not to work but to teach sx and yw how to operate a OBM in order to prepare them for PA Paddles Championship on Apr 19 & 20. I practise wif them man overboard, parking and also let them do some manuvouring. Frankly speaking, sx had no problem after the practise, but for yw, i would prefer to have another session to perfect the skills.
I dunno what kind of attitude does sx and yw bring wif them today, but this is a life long skills which maybe of use to u in future. Nevertheless, it helps u recap and put what u have learn into use. More importantly, u can also work after u have perfected the skills. People may think that $50 is not alot, but think about the overall jobscope, it was quite relaxing, for rental of powerboat outside is $200 for 4 hours plus ned to be the member of the club, by working here is free and they pay u, isn't that great?
Lets hope that nth goes wrong on Apr 19 & 20, otherwise it may affect the outlet reputation and also the ability of boatman nowadays.
Had BBQ tonite at lower seletar, finally manage to get 10 ppl to come. Had lots of variety and delicious food ready and it taste good wor!! But the onli sad thing is that the BBQ pit is too small, thus the production of food is slow, whahaha, next time mus improvise to have a bigger pit!!
Have always been home late as usual, my parents actually gave me 19 missed call, kaoz. Decided to give an end to it, thus debate wif my father over this.
1) Father says that onli abnormal ppl and bad ppl hang out late at night, my ans was when u go drink and chill wif ur frenz at coffeeshop until 3am then does it means ur frenz are adnormal and bad?
2) Why doesn't i pick up his call? Mainly is because i am reaching home soon and i know as soon as i pick up i will heard the usual nagging sentences from him, so no point. Partly is i always put my hp in my jacket, thus hard to take out while on sx lorry.
3) Why i perfer to hang out late at night? Then i jus ask my father back, why do u always wan to go chill and drink at night wif ur frenz until 3am sometimes? He can reply me that they have to work mahz, thats y after working, go home and then come down, is around 11 to 12pm. Then i told him that is precisly the ans that he wants. Sometimes u must understand people may have things on, ppl may ned to work until 6 or 9pm, then rest and go. Some may stay far from yishun, we have to give and take and accomodate to each other in our social circle. Somemore i am not a child any more, turning 20 this year, i believe i defintely is more mature than majority of the people around my age. I dun smoke, fool around, clubbing, dye hair, i jus went out to chill wif frenz, movies, eating session, what is the problem there? Am i neglecting my studies? No, i still try my best to get an average results? So why can't the trust be there between a parent and their child?
4) Then that is the case then y wanna go out? My reply was u already born me to be an onli child, after ur went out to work, its onli me and the 4 walls at home. Pratically i have nth to do at home. And why do i bother to work, of course is to earn extra money to supplement my expenses, if i am not allow to do what i wanted, then i will jus slack and home and stop working all the way until my NS days, which i think they will grumble and ask y whole day stay home and dun go find work and earn $, then now is the contridicting part, ask me to work, work le then dun le me go enjoy. Got $ no life spent, this is what it means.
Finally, i dun like the attitude that onces my father had failed to have ani reasonable qns to shoot me, he jus find a way to escape from it, like i dunno u la, do what u wan lor. Or night time le, dun tok too much, later disturb ppl, go sleep go sleep. I dun think that is the way to save face, to me that is a way to throw face more cos u cannot accept the reality and trying to run away from it.
Ok, engh of the fierce debate, hereby i shall wish yw and the yec peeps a wonderful journey to KL, Jen and Sx a safe trip back to malaysia to tomb sweep or celebrate bday.
Signing off with anger: TP (* _ *)"!!
- it's me.
