Attack Of The Karaoke

Police Rugby team had a friendly match against Singapore Cricket Club (SCC) Rugby Team at Old Police Academy last Saturday. It was a good exposure for the Police Rugby team even though we lost marginally. Basically, the SCC was full of gigantic caucasians. Almost three-quarter of the team consisted of caucasian. However, me managed to hold them back. For the first 15 minutes, the game was even. They were bashing through at us but our fort was magnificient. We tackled them hard. In the final quarter, they ran out of gas and it was our time to take control of the game. From what i see, we were in their half for most of the 4 quarters. Not bad for a local rugby team consisted of youngsters. Eventuall we lost. They scored 4 tries and we managed to get 2. The Caucasians thought they could bully us with their big sizes but they are damn wrong. We may lack in size but we offset our small sizes with superb and hard tackles. Police rugby is known for that. In the end, it is the caucasians who ended the match with so many bruises and red faces. Muahaha. Actually they are not that good. We Asians like to think highly of them. They are actually nothing. Like Cik Amran said,'the caucasians are nothing. If you step on them, the liquid that ooze out is still red and not blue in colour. They are humans just like us. Do not give them too much respect but at the same time do not disrespect them too'. Now i am a stiff neck. When ever i want to look to the right, instead of just moving my head to that direction, i have to move my whole body. Haha. Anyway, my department had our re-treat today at NSRCC which is located near East Coast Park. It was damn fun except for the stupid and boring discussion we had. We have to discuss our work plan for Financial Year 2007. After the discussion period was over, we were given 3 activities to participate in. First, there is golf but only Senior Officers can participate in this activity. Second, there is bowling and lastly, there is karaoke session. I opted for karaoke session and i was joined by my supervisor, AD Policy and 3 aunties who are civilian officers in my department. AD Policy could sing well but it was my supervisor who stole the limelight. To be honest, this is my second karaoke session but this session was the first time i sang. I am a bad singer i tell you. Haha. We sang couple of songs from the 60s, 70s and 80s. AD Policy was surprised with the songs that i chose. I prefer oldies to modern pop songs. I sang 'The Young Ones by Cliff Richard', 'I don't Wanna Miss A Thing by Aerosmith', 'American Pie' and many more old songs. Haha. Miss Loke is not a bad singer. She sang some classic mandarin love songs. Haha. I really admire people who can sing and i am jealous of them too. Dang. Why do i not have a nice voice? Can someone be my voice coach? Well, since i can not sing well, i will leave the singing to the singer. Hmm, maybe i can write songs. Well, the rest is history man! Haha. I failed my last bike practical. This time, i will not blame BBDC. Haha. It was hilarious as to how i failed that practical. I wobbled my way through and i got 42 demerit points. Muahaha. Ok ok. I will pass next time, God-willing! Below are some clips i took from the karaoke session.


I took this clip whilst singing the song, 'I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing' by Aerosmith. My voice sux! Haha. There, i told you i need a voice or vocal coach. Haha.


I love dangdut. I sang this song with ASP Zul. Haha.

When The Pen Moves, Heads Will Roll

Dang. I am in deep shit. Firstly, my department did not meet the 80 hours training hours target as one of my officers only clocked in 77 hours. Secondly, one of my officer's appeal to be exempted from BSC IPPT return calculation has been rejected. Thus, my department also did not meet the BSC IPPT target of 83.7% passing rate. Our overall BSC will be affected and we will not get an A grade. This means not much money for our department's overseas trip. That is beside the point. The point is my director will reprimand my Assistant Director (AD) and my AD will pass the blame to me. Firstly, i have to admit that i made a mistake for not checking the training hours in TRAISI thorougly. I missed out on the Elementary Bahasa Melayu course attended by one of my officer. However, it is not totally my mistake.One of the co-ordinator called me to inform that one of my officer lack of 3 hours of training hours. The target hours is 80 but she clocked in only 77 hours. However, my department's training hours stated that she had done 109 training hours. The difference is 32 hours and thus, this 32 training hours is the Elementary Bahasa Melayu course. I asked her why is the above-mentioned course not reflected in one of my officer's TRAISI account. Furthermore, that course is an IPAM course and thus it should be keyed in by the course provider. I was told that the course provider is People Development (PD) Department and they had technical trouble keying in the training hours for officers who have attended the above-mentioned course. The training co-ordinator asked me as to why i did not call the course provider but i told her i have tried calling the guy since last year but nobody answered my call. I told her that Edward was in-charge of the course but to my surprise, that training co-ordinator told me that the guy have ORD-ed. This is all crap i tell you. I have triend to call CSC mainline several times but no one answered my call too. I tell you what. Some people really do not know how to skive. Most Singaporeans are damn stupid when comes to skiving at work. It is okay to skive but you must make sure you have completed your urgent tasks first. Anyway, it is also a good desk etiquette to answer phone calls within the fastest timing. Some people really do not know how to skive and yet they always love to 'act busy'. Fuckers!! In the end, i will be the one who will be screwed tomorrow. That is why i said i am in deep shit. Like some great guru would say, that's you ASP Ravi, haha, when the pen moves, heads will roll. My certificate of service (COS) will be affected but hey, i do not give a damn about my COS. I dare spit on my COS infront of my bosses. Here we are working our wits out and yet there are those who only knows how to 'carry balls' or 'boot lick'. These are fuckers too i tell you. If i ever chance upon them after i ORD, i will spit on their faces! Erghh! I am not stressed out by the problem of getting screwed by my director but it is just that it will not be fair for them to blame me. Ok, let's see what will happen tomorrow. Haha. Somehow, i miss chatting and crapping with that someone. Haha. 19 more days before i can chat with her again. I am a man of my words and i am not like my friends who give 'Malay Promises'. Haha. Ok ok, i am damn tired now because i have just finished rugby training. Aight, take care! 19 more days..19... :p

King Crippler: The Next Famous Internet Superstar

It has been a while since i last submit any entries for my blog. I went to Kuala Lumpur last 2 weeks, 6th April 2007, to have a friendly rugby match with Negeri Sembilan Wanderers at Pulapo (Pusat Latihan Polis) Malaysia. Pulapo is equivalent to Police Academy of Singapore, which is now part of Home Team Academy. We embarked on our journey from Old Police Academy at about eight in the morning and it took us around 8 hours to reach Pulapo. We had only one stop and that was at Yong Peng. It was my first time visiting modern Kuala Lumpur. Haha. From what i know, my last visit of KL before this friendly match was in early 1990s. Hell, i can not even remember when i last visited KL. Haha. Pulapo is a very old academy and i do not understand why the Malaysian government can not afford to upgrade the sorry academy. This is Malaysian politics and i do not wish to dwell into it. Politic is dirty i tell you. When you get a group of Malays together to govern something, things will never go right. History have proven this time and time again. Look at the Temenggong's selfishness when he sold Singapore to the British in 1800s. Look at Mahathir when he accused and wrongly punished Anuar Ibrahim of sodomy. Lastly, look at Indonesia now. I do not wish to elaborate. Being a Malay myself, i do not understand why it has to be this way. Why my race always have to be the one in the front page of a newspaper in a negative way (etc Nonoi murder, drug problems of the Malays..) Why when you go to Orchard and you will witness of a lot of misguided Malay youths. Well, this is some thing for us to ponder. Is there some thing wrong with the Malay leaders here? Is there some thing wrong with the Malay parents here? Well, what is the fucking wrong with us (the Singaporean Malays)? Ok, let's not digress any more. Haha. Like i said, Pulapo is damn old. When we reached Pulapo, we were lead to the field straight away. We quickly changed into our rugby gears and did our warm-up. Then the match started. We played 4 quarters, 20 minutes for each quarter. We played very well in the first quarter and our forwards dictate the pace of the game. We commanded the game very well. 2nd quarter was dominated by the oppositions and their backs dominated in that quarter. They scored a lot through their fly-half. I swear most of their backs are Sevens players. They are damn good as compared to our backs. I played in the 2nd and 3rd quarter and it was damn tiring. I did not contribute much do. There is still much for me to do in my scrummage. I was the weakest link in scrummage. I do not know why i can not anchor my studs into the field to hold on to the scrummage. I still need to work on my leg power. Haha. There was this moment when one of the opponents' back kicked the ball to us and i was the only player there. I picked the ball, ran straight and whilst running, i saw one of the opponent checking me and getting ready to tackle. I went closer to him head on and right at the last moment, i lift my right leg across my body, like as if i was going to change my direction. Now, my right leg is at the right side of the opponent. He committed and rightly after that, i did a 360 degrees spin to my right and managed to go through him. I imitated one of the All Blacks players, Joe Rokochoko. After the spin, i kept running and i saw an opponent coming from my left. I sidestepped and managed to evade his takcle. I saw another opponent from my left again but i can only manage to crash unto him this time around. I drove with the ball for a few metres and quickly deck to the ground thereafter. Haha, i managed to execute the 360 degrees spin twice. Once against SAJC and the other against NS Wanderers. After the match, we packed our stuff, getting ready to head back to Singapore. I thought we would be back in Singapore that night itself at about 11pm or so but we reached here eventually on Saturday morning at around 2am. Haha. I promised someone that i would be the first one to wish her happy birthday but because i reached Singapore at about 2am on Saturday morning, i did not have the chance to be the first to wish her. This is partly because i have no network coverage in Johor. Dang. As promised, i have to refrain from chatting or talking with her for one month. Damn! I have to bite my own fingers now all because of Rugby. Nevertheless, i sent her a sms at 3am. Haha. Recently, there was a debate about the government's pay increment. Lee Hsien Leong said that he will donate his increment to charity and i tell you what, that is all bull-shit. Political stunt. He can survive well in Singapore even without the increment. In addition to that, his wife is the owner of Temasek Holdings. So do not tell us cock and bull story by saying that you would donate that pay increment of yours to the charity. The pay increment is not justifiable. I will tell you why. Firstly, S$10,000 a month is more than enough of a salary to survive well in Singapore. I assure you that you are well-to-do person in Singapore even if you are earning at S$5,000 to S$7,000 a month. So what is the increment for? They say it is the way to ensure that Singapore has top services from people who have high skills and qualifications. This is the way to keep those talented leaders from leaving the government bodies so that they can work at private sectors. I tell you what! If you are not happy with the 'low pay', you can leave the government and there are others who are talented and willingly want serve the country well even at that pay. Secondly, if you are patriotic about serving Singapore, do not make money an issue. Anyway, like i said, S$5,000 to S$7,000 a month is enough. Other than that, they say that the pay increment is to prevent corruption but do not they read history book? Even top earners practice corruption. Look around! This is human tendency. When we get something, we would surely want more. Humans are greedy in nature. This is normal. Just look at the self-proclaimed post; the Minister Mentor. This is my notion: i sincerely think Senior Prime Minister is enough to be a mentor to Prime Minister. Millions of dollars can be injected into the economy if we can divert that pay increment money. I think it is fine if the government wants to increase the pay of MPs, ministers etc but i do not think it is justifiable if they increase it wildly. Look at the percentage increment. It is massive. Too much. Yes, they deserve pay increment because of their devoted services that they rendered for Singapore. However, the pay increment figures are not justifiable. We pay more income tax and other taxes just for them to haphazardly increase their wages in a massive volume? No way! Well, these are just my opinions. Correct me if i am wrong. Well, enough about politics. Didn't i tell you it is dirty? Haha. Anyway, i'm left with 4 months and 22 days to ORD. Yahoo. Haha. I can not wait for ORD. A free man at last. Haha. How's my life then? Nah, nothing much have been happening. My life is so pedestrial. Nothing interesting. I will be on leave tomorrow. Ahh, my bike practical will be tomorrow and it will be my 4th attempt on u-turn. Fucking BBDC! I do not understand why i keep failing. Just two more practicals God! Please please please! Well, you guys have to wait for tomorrow to check whether i've passed my practical on u-turn. Haha. Hmm, Vh1 recently came out with this 'Top 40 Most Famous Internet Superstar' and the people who made it to the list are cool. I admire their creativity. They became famous for their creativity. Kudos! Below is one of the internet superstar who amuses me very much. He can kick Michael Jackson's buttocks any time of the day! Haha. Enjoy the clip! Take care...


Check out his moves. His face expression is damn good. Haha. I shall call him Mamak Jackson.


Check out his fight move too. Even better than Tyson. I shall call him Mamak Tyson.


Check out his another fight move. See how he kicks the big urn. Even better than Carrick. I shall call him Mamak Carrick.


A grown up Lil' Superstar. See, never discount people just because of their imparity. He's all grown up now and making it big in life as a dance instructor.

Quote from KC: Sometimes in life, it's not totally about being loved but more to loving.

Ahmad Fathi - Let Me

Ahmad Fathi - Let Me

When the road is bumpy
And your path isn’t bright
Let me be your saviour
I will be your light

When you are rock bottom
You thought you’ve lost it all
Just wipe those tears
I’ll be there when you fall

When you skin your knees
While walking down the lane
Don’t be despaired
I’ll kiss away your pain

Don’t you ever give up
When you aren’t winning
There is a saying,
Every dark cloud has a silver lining.


Note: This poem was created by me when i was waiting for my members at a coffee shop. Eventually, my friends didn't turn up. I detest people who are not true to their words. I'm very understanding but to go against your words or make empty promises is no way to treat your friends. Maybe i'm just too nice. Once is fine with me but being cheated many times is too much. Luckily i'm understanding. Nevermind. Maybe God is giving me a test. Any way, yeah, i been writting poems for this past two weeks. My poem writting is a bit pathetic nowadays as compared to my secondary school era. My English language is a bit 'rusty'. Haha.

What I found out: People always fear what they do not understand. However, as time passed by, life has taught us not to fear what we don't understand. Now eat this: never love someone who you don't know at all or that well.Learn about them first! I have made this mistake too many times. I think it is about time that i avoid making this similar mistake again. Every time i get to know a stranger and then get to know her a little better, i will have the tendency to have a strong feelings for her. In the end, it will be a one-way love and i will be the one full of shame and humilation. I know this is wrong and thus, i vow not to repeat this again. Damn!
