Public Duty - Kusu Island

Us in the ambulance when we were waiting to set off at the HQ. 

 

7 bottles of Good Earth bottles, meant for us to drink if we need to. A foreigner tried to buy a bottle from us, waving her $2 note triumphantly. (She was digging for it for ages.)

This is what I was staring at for 6 hours. 

Nice view from the 3rd floor  

 

 I didn't go to the Kusu Island at all, because of cramps and we (Yi Jun, BC, Jason, me)  stayed at the jetty all the while. There were 2 groups of us, 4 in each. One group was stationed in Singapore whereas the other was stationed at Kusu Island. 

 Ironically, although the 6 hours were torturously boring, a few interesting things did happen. 

 Not in any chronological order or any other order you can think of.  

 1. Saw an incredibly cute ang-moh girl, her blonde hair was plaited and her messy bangs complimented her blue eyes. 

 2. Two guys nearly fought, they were hurling hokkien vulgarities at each other super loudly. It finally stopped when the police came and resolved the issue. It was happening right before my eyes, I can't help but stare. 

  3. Lots of people mistook the first aid post to be the Information Counter. 

  4. A female lifeguard hurt her knees when Johnson just reached the first aid post. Funny thing is, lifeguards should know basic first aid and one of her friends was actually carrying a first aid pouch same as ours only that it's of a darker shade. 

  5. Saw a security guard with Elvis sideburns.

  6. A guy was 'mopping' the floor using an unconventional method. It wasn't really unconventional actually, it's just how they mop large areas like lobbies or shopping malls.  He had this big machine and wherever the machine went, it mopped the floor, provided that you switch on the machine, duh. Watching the machine mop was therapeutic. 

  7. Ang-moh wanted to buy bottled water from us - refer to the 2nd photo above.

Morning

Enxin asked me to be the page-turner in the morning and I was shocked and kind of afraid because music scores are like Gaelic to me. 但是我硬着头皮答应了她。At first it was difficult but after the choir finished singing, the scores were less of a stranger. After service was sunday school then training.
