Day 92

Another routine day.... as i said on tuesday, this week is effectively over after tue morning.....

Nothing but OU lesson the whole day.... got examed on psychology.... not too bad, but the writing of chinese character is the most difficult part.

Happy Hour at night..... it's been joyful. Our acupella was quite good actually.

Have dinner with squadmates in aberdeen..... always fun to have such people around you.

It's hard and harder everyday to keep secret..... what must i do?

Day 91

Another routine day.

Morning Resistance Control course, followed by OU tutorial and OU lecture.

Simply waste of life.

Start to feel nervous for tomorrow's psychology exam..... but FXXK it...... I'd rather sleep well and take care of it tomorrow.

She's Got You High - Mumm-Ra

Track from (500) Days of Summer.

She's got you high and you don't even know yet
She's got you high and you don't even know yet
It's the search for the time before it leaves without you
Have you lost your mind or has she taken all of yours too?
Whats this about? I figured love would shine through
We've lost romance this world has turned so see through
Open your mind, believe it's going to come to
Romance alive and hope she's going to tell you

Day 90

After the long weekend, it's great to have time to charge up again.

Monday spent on nothing but sleep.

Good to know that Liverpool beat Manure by 2:0..... title chance? Dunno, but definitely maybe.

Tuesday, Morning parade, turned to the wrong side at the start..... funny scene to see shocked faces.... fortunate enough not to be punished for that.

After the morning parade, this week is effectively over, just some lectures and OU, more OU and OU classes...... simply a waste of time.

Range course in the afternoon...... real fun to do snap shooting with shoot and non-shoot target, shame i discharged one bullet too late that it was counted non-hit or else I'll have a perfect record (the grouping today was not bad, but can still work on that further)

Got pissed by a squadmate lately, frankly, i should thank him coz he really pisses me off bad and apart from beating the shit out of him, I wanted to let him know only the best runs the show here, a good police officer isnt done by saying so, but from the result at the end of the day..... He'd better be in the same league as me or else that'd be a joyless competition.... New drive for good performances.

Everything going good lately, I'm just glad to realize that.

(500) Days of Summer.

"This is a story of boy meets girl. But you should know up front, this is not a love story."

"People don't realize this but loneliness... It's underrated."

"Most days of the year are unremarkable. They begin, and they end, with no lasting memories made in between. Most days have no impact on the course of a life."

Brilliant movie.

Autumn, I've just seen a face.

Head over heels.

Do you believe in astrology?

I do.

I hope everything they say is true.

I want a time machine, so that I can go back in time.

I want to know you.

Je t'aime...... change.

Love make all persons alike.

I love,

I miss,

Day 89

An easy day.

PSUC exercise in the morning..... nothing much..... got nothing to do.....

OU exam in the afternoon...... surely to have passed after finishing the MC part, the long questions was for bonus only, anwser just for fun~

Nothing beat a good burger and late night dinner.

Gotta sleep now.

Thursday, October 22, 2009

Day 88

I hate bureaucracy.....

Especially when you're confined for something that you've put in effort to remedy, but owing to unfriendly attitude from some (stupid, arrogant) staff and bureaucracy, your effort is futile and you're awarded with punishment you dont deserve.....

What does this imply? Never let any of the (unrelated, stupid, couldnt-care-less) people stand in your way and deter you from doing what you need to do, or indeed, what you think you should do......

That's a lesson.

Morning parade was okay, unlikely auidence popped up today too~

OU tutorial and more OU time wasted....

One lecture in the afternoon and now it's another k in the pocket..... should i be glad?

A bit worried about tomorrow's PSUC exercise and OU exam..... must sleep now and wake early to prepare myself.

Time seems to zap by so quickly everytime we talk... I'm dazzled.

Day 87

Training resumes normal again....

Morning footdrill..... slight sweating even in such mild temperature.

Range course today is good..... shooting at night is not too much of a problem to me, but the left and right barricade is a bit of problem (especially the other's revolver so close to me, i cant move too much).... but i can have no complain on scoring full marks.

OU lecture in the afternoon..... Did nothing but sleep..... the course is too boring and simply a waste of time.....

Extra footdrill afterwork.... all for tomorrow's preparation.

I'm sleeping late again..... but it's a joyful conversation.... life in police college is too packed.... can seldomly find free time available without sacrificing something.... it's sleep time that suffers now....

Day 86

A day of mo liu ness.....

Only one lecture in the whole day, afternoon was for self study, nearly got busted for watching VCD..... close shave.

Dinner with friends and co...... great night..... hope you guys werent too fed up with the chicken(s) i ordered.

Dessert time again.... it's been a good night.

Must sleep now..... till tomorrow then.

Monday, October 19, 2009

Day 85.

A day which I feel tried most of the time.

Woke up early only to find the morning drill has been cancelled.

Exercise in the morning..... committed some mistake in my position, I was partly to blame.... bad experience today = good experience in future..... I can only soothe myself this way.

Long lectures in the afternoon..... struggle to stay awake.

Went for a brick hill run..... the hill under the cable car in Ocean Park.... it's almost a must for the lead actor to run in every police-related TV drama.... I have the opportunity to do it today..... not a bad experience..... at certain point you're not running with your body, but with your mind..... the pain is excruciating in the quads and hamstring, but you just follow your mate and keep running, using your mind to overcome physical hardship, it works.... finish the course in 18'26", looking forward to next one already.

Dinner and dessert, reminds me of the days in hall~

陳奕迅 - 冤氣

Sunday.

Slept till late on sunday.

A bit of reading in the evening.

Was in a bad mood but I was being stupid, never knowing my phone cannot receive SMS when the inbox is full (full means 3000)... okay.

I guess I need a new phone soon.

Looking forward to Tuesday, Wanna meet with Lo Kai, Dan, Alv and Jeff (and Lily as well).

Bon Jovi - We Weren't Born To Follow

Saturday

Worked hard on saturday, but not on formal business.

I've spent 16 hours on something totally not related to my training.....

But still...... it's nice and I'm loving it.

Saturday, October 17, 2009

Day 84

Friday and another week has passed by.

Once again, nothing too much lately.

Morning footdrill for 1 hour, then it's my beloved range lesson again. Made a mistake when deciding to shoot or not in the mini-range, but it's still good experience. Fired 36 rounds in the indoor range, moving target and covered target, feeling my shooting skill is rather inconsistent.... Can at times make the bullet go all around the world.... but sometimes if I concentrate I can get a 2 inch grouping...... really need to work on that.

Lunch time people gathering in my room for a 'picnic'.... reminds me of the days in hall.

OU lecture in the afternoon. As I always said, the lecture is useless, so today when the PIs were assigned as moderator, we actually teach the course much better than that less than nothing lecturer, the response after our teaching is much positive.... that's good~

Dinner with Issac and colleagues for Issac's birthday.... we got the dinner theme of 'High energy, high cholesterol and high fat", we started with dessert first and then a chinese restaurant in San Po Kong, good food there, the arcade game in diamond hill afterwards was great too.... didnt expect my colleagues are such crazy about games~~

Even later, had a short chat with Yvonne and Issac..... we've covered so much on our thoughts about the squad and etc.... Previously I always thought I'm in the Police College just for training, but now, I have a slight sense that I can make some good friends there too~ I'm pleased.

Going back home around midnight..... had a phone chat while sitting outside my home's main entrance.... continue to chat after going home..... I feel really old... I can no longer stay up the whole night.... but still, it's been really pleasurable.

Saturday, now working on my project..... Estimate Time of completion tomorrow? Hopefully~

Thursday, October 15, 2009

Day 83

Another ordinary day.

The footdrill in the morning is disastrous.... luckily the weather lately is more tolerable.....

OU tutorial afterwards..... still as useless as before.

OU lecture in the afternoon, probably we have pissed off too many RPCs with our snacks and loud voice, we received complaints from them and was in deep trouble, my original plan of sleeping all the way through it couldnt be carried out, instead, I had struggled to stay awake for the whole 4 hours lecture..... darn.... Can they offer a course that's some more challenging than these stupid stuff?? Simply waste of my time.

Keep on feeling ill..... my bronchus now got infected..... I can feel the heat and the sputum there.....

Was grilled by my colleagues during dinner time tonight.... Am i being too overt?

Nevermind..... I needa sleep.

Day 82

Another day, another k.... (k stands for thousand.....) frankly, money is not the main motivation here, but knowing that there is one thousand earned from today is a good bonus.

Nothing too much today, lecture in the morning, Preplanned exercise 3 with RECCE in aberdeen (I'm not commander this time.... got nothing much to do) and the afternoon was spent on the OU lectures again....

Earning money like today is a really good thing to do (compared to yesterday's hard work)

Got the time to go out and shop for grocery in Park'N shop...... fruitful return. Now my room is well stocked with food and drinks~

Show parade once again..... I still hate that, but compared with confinement I'll definitely choose the former.

Got a chat in TV room..... shame the disturbance is too much....

Theft is good..... courage is in my heart.....

Nevermind what I'm talking..... I really gotta sleep, in my "tidy" room (I've spent my night cleaning it well)...... till tomorrow.

Goodnight everyone~

Day 81

Feeling the virus kicking in inside my body.

Feeling irritation in my throat constantly today, mild imflammation with nasal membrane swelling, typical signs of URTI..... just hope situation is not going to worsen these few days.

Morning Parade, was drilled to a point my brain was empty but a big question of 'why the FXXK am i there' was left.... horrible.... not to mention the 2 nights of 'show parade' because my cap batch was slightly malaligned..... WTF?

Lecture afterwards.... nothing but sleep-through....

Handled a federal gun in the afternoon, quite fun, but practically, I dont feel I'll use it much.

Took a nap in the evening, skipping dinner.... the 2 hours of sleep is a real life safer......

People around me seems to have fallen asleep too.... take care~

It's now time to sleep, till later then~

Day 80

Once again, I only manage to sleep till late.....

Today was a busy day, morning footdrill, lecture and then with more lecture and extra drill after work..... what can i say..... feeling sleeping the whole time today.

Why am I always the latest in the corridor to sleep? Something I knew it's not right but nonetheless I'm doing everyday. (I somehow enjoyed it a bit)

I missed the days in hall, where I can sleep till late, only wake up in the evening and watch the magic moment and then chat, chat and chat till dawn and consider skiving all classes.... those were the days......

It's been a wonderful conversation tonight. Chatted for so long till both of our cells were out of battery..... it's been..... 5 hours? I dunno..... but it's good.

Feeling a bit of sore throat now.... hope by tmr it'll be gone......

Take care, work hard, all the best, and good night.

Monday, October 12, 2009

Sunday.

Did nothing the whole day today.

I need a break.

Dessert tonight is good.

Life is okay.

Finished all the chores in Police College, it's late now, but it's finished.

I earned my sleep now. Till later.

Sunday, October 11, 2009

Saturday.

From the sake last night, i woke up with some rough feelings.....

But still, it's always cozy to stay at home.

Hea till 3 in the afternoon then head out to W hotel for tea with Winnie and co. Good fun.

Went for 'Australia Milk Company' for the famous fried egg before heading for gym.....

It's like obsessive compulsive disorder, but for the job requirement, i really needed to work out.... If i have to do it no matter what, i will do it in positive way.... working out with passion radiating (that's somewhat over exaggerated, but I'm happy).... feel good.

It's so hard to find a friend for drink in mong kok tonight...... not that i dont have much friend.... but my friends are too occupied with important stuff.... shall I be happy or sad?

It's funny feeling when you know a person is doing the same thing in the same place as you do, but you didnt see that person... that happened tonight.....

Better sleep now..... I'm tired.....

Sweet dreams everyone~

Saturday, October 10, 2009

Day 79.

Another week has passed.

Today it's the first time we do footdrill with the RPCs..... plenty of room for improvement....

The OU tutorials and lectures is an endurance test to fight sleep...... just crazily tired whenever the lecturer speak..... WTF?

But TGI Friday..... I now have 2 days of my own~

Went for gym afterwork.... my performance is still..... bad..... gym use to be fun for me but now it's getting more and more like some chores.... but still, these are essential.... um..... not a good feeling~

Had a crazy dinner with colleagues at CB, Japanese style buffet, lots of sashimi and sake..... even i feel a bit tipsy..... but the night was so much fun~

PS. 戀愛頻率... nice~

職系架構問題?

政府再一次就紀律部隊「職系架構問題」開大會,各個部門紛紛發言…

海關 : 我哋「輯毒」同「輯私」工作,跟警察一樣,所以薪金應該都要跟警察一樣。
入境處 : 我哋打擊「非法入境者」同「過期居留人士」,跟警察一樣,所以薪金應該都要跟警察一樣。
消防處 : 我哋經常都要「救人」,跟警察一樣,所以薪金應該都要跟警察一樣。
懲教署 : 我哋每曰都要「面對罪犯」,跟警察一樣,所以薪金應該都要跟警察一樣。

當警察部代表想發言時,旁聽人群裡面一啲非紀律部隊人員突然「搶咪」…
食環署 : 我哋日日都要處理「阻街」,跟警察一樣,所以薪金應該都要跟警察一樣。
社會福利署 : 我哋不時都要處理「家暴問題」,跟警察一樣,所以薪金應該都要跟警察一樣。
環保署 : 我哋成日都要處理「噪音問題」,跟警察一樣,所以薪金應該都要跟警察一樣。
運輸處 : 我哋每日都要「管制交通」,跟警察一樣,所以薪金應該都要跟警察一樣。
勞工處 : 我哋時時都要處理「勞資糾紛」,跟警察一樣,所以薪金應該都要跟警察一樣。
差餉物業估價署 : 我哋都要處理「租務糾紛」,跟警察一樣,所以薪金應該都要跟警察一樣。
民航處 : 我哋要處理「空難」,跟警察一樣,所以薪金應該都要跟警察一樣。
海事處 : 我哋要處理「海難」,跟警察一樣,所以薪金應該都要跟警察一樣。

好不容易,個「咪」避過建築署、水務署、康文署、機電工程署而傳返警察部代表時,在旁正在幫與會各人斟水嘅「打雜」阿姐,突然一手搶過支「咪」,望住警察部代表講:「睇嚟你嘅工作跟我一樣,所以薪金應該都要跟我一樣。」

紀律部隊就「職系架構」問題開大會,開會途中…

警察部 : 我有嘢做,要走先啦。
海關 : 我知,你一定係去「輯毒」。
警察部 : 星期一做過,今日唔知洗唔洗做。
海關 : 我知,你一定係去「輯私」。
警察部 : 星期二做過,今日唔知洗唔洗做。
入境處 : 我知,你一定係去拉「非法入境者」。
警察部 : 星期三做過,今日唔知洗唔洗做。
入境處 : 我知,你一定係去拉「過期居留人士」。
警察部 :星期四做過,今日唔知洗唔洗做。
消防處 : 我知,你一定係去「救人」。
警察部 : 星期五做過,今日唔知洗唔洗做。
懲教署 : 我知,你一定係去「看守犯人」。
警察部 : 星期六做過,今日唔知洗唔洗做。
海關 : 嘅然你無咩特別事要做,不如坐低「打下牙鉸」先。
警察部 : 我都想,不過我哋就算無特別嘢做,都要負責喺條街度巡邏。
入境處 : 咩叫「巡邏」呀?辛唔辛苦得過我哋「吸印」呀?有無冷氣嘆嘅先?
消防處 : 我就覺得打排球辛苦啲。
教署 : 望住啲犯仲辛苦呀。

就喺各人「你一言我一語」時,警察部代表已經聽咗三個電話…

警察部 : 我有嘢做,趕住走啦。
海關 : 有無咩幫手呀? 嘅然要求一樣人工,你做咩,我做咩。
入境處、消防處、懲教署 : 講得啱!
警察部 : 咁就好啦,剛才我接咗三個Call,「兇殺」、「持鎗行劫」、「黑社會劈友」。
海關、入境處、消防處、懲教署 : ………………

此時,警察部代表電話又響…
消防處 : 我哋繼續開會。
入境處 : 講到邊度?
海關 : 跟警察薪金一樣。
懲教署 : 阿姐,麻煩你斟一斟水。四杯夠啦,收咁隻杯。
打雜阿姐 : ………………………………

警察部代表離開後,海關、入境處、消防處 、懲教處繼續就紀律部隊「職系架構」問題開大會,在中途 toilet break 期間,四名代表分佔四個尿兜…

海關 : 你哋知唔知我幾勁呀,『星期一』我去西環「輯毒」,個毒犯有機關槍同手榴彈架。
入境處 : 我都唔差,『星期三』我喺重慶大廈發現到十幾個「非法入境者」,重個個拎刀打算反抗拘捕。
消防處 : 我夠醒啦, 『星期五』尖沙咀場大火,係我發現有可疑架。
懲教署 : 唓,你哋見過頭號通輯犯「歡哥」未?我『星期六』先至比佢打咗拳,佢仲話要同我隻揪呀。

突然,「打雜」阿姐喺厠格行出,望住仲痾緊尿嗰四個人…
「打雜」阿姐 : 咁你地最後點樣處理呀?
海關、入境處、消防處、懲教署 : 揾警察做囉!
「打雜」阿姐 : ………………………………
海關 : 係喎,依度好似係男厠嚟喎,你仲咩係度?
「打雜」阿姐 : 仲咩係度?你哋疴完啲「屎屎尿尿」唔係有我幫你哋執手尾做清潔,你哋邊有疴得咁舒服。仲走埋一齊「咇哩叭啦」,「人加你加」。
海關、入境處、消防處、懲教署 : ………

海關 : 我哋一陣去邊度食飯?懲教署 : 鵝頸橋鷄記吖,嗰到啲菠蘿鷄出名呀。
消防處 : 嗰厠所咁煙嘅?係唔係火燭?
「打雜」阿姐 : 依啲唔係煙,係霧,仲要係大嗰隻。你哋一入厠所就出現啦。縮腳!
入境處 : 整污漕我對鞋啦,平時我著住佢淨係踩地毯咋。
之後,四個人繼續開會,議提係「薪金要跟警察一樣」。

I dont like the tone of this writing, but still, some facts of life are reflected there.

Day 78

My soul is still, in constant state of unrest.... with age progressing, my patience is decresing year by year..... i just want an answer......

Training went to a plateau stage now...... it's not a good feeling especially when you find you cant progress despite the effort put in, i dun know how long will i stay like this but I'm optimistic I'll reach higher after this plateau, always keep faith and put in effort.

English course for the whole day, not too useful, but nonetheless an entertaining one......

I look forward to weekend already..... I want to get back to hall as well~

Wednesday, October 07, 2009

Day 77

Today it's relative (really) light compared to yesterday.

No footdrill in morning as it's raining.

OU tutorial is a place for blathering and BS-ing.

PT staff has been kind to us, only some light stretching today.

OU lecture in the afternoon, sleeping like hell.....

The difference between Heaven and Hell in 48 hours.

Would love to sleep soon. Later then.

PS. The week has unofficially ended.... coz the remaining lectures are useless.....

PS2. Want to think of something fun to do in the weekend.... anyone interested?

Day 76.

Never assume anything and it's every police officers' karma to expect the unexpected.

Footdrill in the morning.

PSUC exercise 5...... my case as 2nd in charge didnt run too well as some decisions were made incorrectly....... but still..... got time to improve. Looking forward to the next one (where I'll have a very high chance to be the commander)

Endured the whole day in the hills doing exercise, and at 1733, we received instruction to turn out at 1745 for further training (a preparation for hell week)....... did 2 hours of PT and then do some more pre-planned exercise, we ended up on the 'terrorist' side (terrorist as we are terrible, LOL) The plan went smoothly until the very last escape..... it's a shame, but nonetheless a good experience.

So tired now as I only report off duty at 11ish.... and I'm not having enough sleep lately these nights..... must get some more rest before I collaspe (especially tmr's footdrill will be 3 hours and ? hours afterwork......)

Sometimes, a word of encouragement is all that needed...

Goodnight~

Tuesday, October 06, 2009

Day 75.

A day of good news. But let me concentrate on work first.

Work, pretty much as usual today. Footdrill in morning and a short lecture. Then it's whole day spending in the range doing moving target and Run-draw-shoot. My marksmanship is getting worse and worse with every course..... seems like i'm too use to the gun now and some of my bad habit are coming out subconciously...... must get rid of those soon.......

No extra PT after work and i took the opportunity to head out to CB to meet with 2 AO.... Kennon, Administrative Officer and Jackie, Ambulance Officer..... it's been so much fun and the chinese food tonight is great...... thanks pal for the wonderful evening.

Sidenote, J' got engaged, congrats to him~ Cant wait for his wedding~

I love dessert... it's been such a wonderful conversation with you tonight, shame the time in police college is so restricted but i believe we'll have the chance for such conversation again..... looking forward~

Tomorrow when I open my eyes it'll be a bright new day.

Sunday, October 04, 2009

Day 74 and weekend.

My soul is in constant unrest lately.

Not necessarily a bad thing.... I didnt have such feeling for 3 years already.... it's like, so full of energy at some time but completely lack of it a moment later... the feeling of rich and poor at the same time... so unsure but yet feel a sense of security in all the chaos...

It's a good sign, isnt it?

Day 74 gone by in a complete holiday mood. Morning footdrill, one lecture on information security, I had a feeling that if my brother is doing the lecture he'd be much better than the lecturer i had that day~ The OU lecture in the afternoon, as usual, sucks.

Happy hour in Mess with all other people, great hanging out with some colleagues and Fok sir, my PT teacher.

Friday night took the opportunity to meet with Kennon.... free time are more precious than before and i'm glad we both can share a bit of time that night. I always admire kennon as he's so analytical and logical, something that i eager to learn.... the chat with him is great, i feel so much rejuvenated afterwards (possibly because life in here is just too boring)

Saturday, head for early tea with family, and then do a bit of shopping and i head for gym, it's been some weeks since i work out.... even after all these exercise in the college, my performance in weights actually drops, eg. my bench press drop from 85 to 80.... the training here focus too much on cardiovascular and endurance, while ignoring strength..... i must keep working out in my free time such that i dont lose all the hard-earned muscle.

A nap later on saturday evening, dinner and then finished 'Gran Torino' by Clint Eastwood, good movie.

Sunday is for rest and SMS.... did a bit of shopping (for snacks) and head back to college......

Another long week awaits..... must sleep now.

Friday, October 02, 2009

Day 73 and 10.1

Day 73, another idle day..... coz the DMI was spent rehearsaling for 1st October ceremony (while we get free time)..... went to the track for a run, 4.8km..... muscles are still sore but bearable.

A very long lecture afterwards, Meetings and Processions...... this module must work harder.....

OU Lecture..... another chance for sleep.

Leave FTC the first thing after work..... I was in anger after waiting in the rain for 1 whole hour for taxi..... i eventually switched for bus and was trapped in traffic for another hour to causewaybay..... totally crazy.

The night spent with Alf, Alv, Jeff, Kenny and Sin sir for hot pot (much better quality than the day before.... and much more expensive too).... during the time we have so deep discussion on identity of LaSallian, boys of courage and daring, how to be a good boss, goals and everything related or unrelated..... absolute awesome~

A drink with Jeff afterwards.... It's seldom of me seeing him like this, he used to be my 'mentor' of some sort..... but the roles have switched a bit lately. Still, I wish him all the best and hope we'll have the chance to work together soon~

Even later that night, Kat, Sally, James and Jon (and his friends..... ><) It's been a while and it's always good to spend time with friends......

My relationship with family is getting worse and worse, what must I do?

Idle day at home... watching TV is kind of fun.... how pathetic....

Started Clint Eastwood's "Gran Torino"..... quite good in the start, shame i didnt have time to finish it.... hopefully in the weekend.

A Burger King dinner in TV room, my favourite (food part only).... It's a nice conversation with Mimi tonight. (Shame we missed the firework show)

Finally got my room tidy and finished with notebook entry and the homework (charge sheet and brief facts of case)..... Am I to write every case that I come across?? That's so time consuming.....

Now feeling so tired now.... must sleep now~
