This is where you stick random tidbits of information about yourself.



























Metamorphosis of Shamkahlo.

While in Hong Kong, we visited the Hong Kong Police Tactical Training Complex, a fully enclosed and self contained tactical training facility which provides a realistic environment where recruits are trained in all aspects of tactics training.The major features of the complex include, MTR station platform and train carriage, mock-up shops, roadways and streets to replicate Hong Kong's urban environment in which officers on patrol are required to operate.

Being a visual person, billboard advertisement always fascinates me and these pictures were taken at one of the 'train station', in the complex. Check out the brands of the products advertised above.


I also found time to visit a store that I wouldnt even dare to enter in Singapore (above), they all looked so fresh and juicy.

Attended a Deepavali concert last nite, not that my taste in music or woman have changed..hehe..my neighbour can vouch for that.
I was just supporting my P2 niece in a dance competition cum deepavali concert. Well, her CCA in school is Indian Dance and she was really excited with her debut public performance.
Decked in fine accessories and glittering costumes they danced their way into second place. Syarah Syahinda, my niece was overjoyed..i was too.

Congratulations Indah.

As promised, an update of the prom last nite.
This is my second and final prom project, hopefully.
Thankfully everything went smoothly, it was a short and sweet affair. Although there were initial skepticism of it actually takling place, I was glad it was finally over.
Altho we almost had nothing for the lucky draw when the gifts got lost... almost...Miss FCL came to the rescue.


A heartfelt thank you to all the SL teachers whose tremendous support was simply unsurpassed.Sincere thank you also to Miss FCL , it was wonderful working with you.
Also to the Prom Comm headed by XA, tho' there were nagging & than some...we managed to pull it thro. Well done.

Glad to see my seniors NCOs shedding their uniforms for more glamorous garb to suit the RED CARPET GLAM theme of the nite. All of the gentlemen looked so charming and the ladies looked so gorgeous.

The highlight of the evening was the crowning of the Prom Queen & the Prom King. Tho all 3 couples looked both compatible and stunning together. I think it was the Q&A segment that clinched the title for the eventual winner. With emotional tears, the Queen won the heart of the judges with her sincere answers while wit and charm made LZY the deserving King.

CONGRATULATIONS ALL & GOOD NITE!

Another burnt Sunday..

Anyway, brought my cadets to the Kranji War Memorial this morning for the Remembrance Day to pay homage to those who made the supreme sacrifice so that the generations that followed could live in peace. It was short, solemn and meaningful.

After the Remembrance ceremony, we proceeded to Kranji Beach Battle Memorial where the SAF Veterans' League laid the wreaths in honour of fallen comrades.


They shall grow not old as we that are left grow old;
Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn,
At the going down of the sun, and in the morning.
We will remember them

Attended a workplan seminar this morning, met a few friends , old & new. We updated each other on latest developments, OC-ship, UOPA..& of cause weight gained...hehe.

Anyway met a friend, a fellow TO whom i knew way back when we attended some courses together,so i asked about her hubby whom i knew in my previous life, visual merchandising era.

Sadly, they have separated & will proceed on with the papers in month end.

Though its really disheartening to hear another wreck marriage, its becoming more common now.

'Im having an affair..' , a married friend blatantly and imperturbably announced to me not so long ago..

'I've discovered something abt my husband...unforgiveable.." another friend despondently whispered.

'Im calling off my wedding cos i caught my fiancee with another man, her 3rd.." another fren lamented !

Hearing such depressing and gloomy news makes me wonder...

1)Where's the sacrosanct of a marriage?

2)Does 'Happily ever after' only happen in movies..

Pondering...

"How virtual communities can have an affect on the classroom, teaching, learning and art". I guess i have to burn the midnite oil..yet again.

Well..i guess i need to start now!

2 saturdays ago i was in Desaru, Last Saturday i was in Negeri Sembilan, yesterday was in some remote Changi area acompanying my cadets kayaking, my activities never cease...

Was supposed to attend my HC neighbour's annual campfire but forgotten my own thing will last till seven, & my ex neighbour, whom i was supposed to go with, got some family matters to attend to after spending his whole Saturday with his new CCA. Alas, decided to meet up my HC neighbour some other day i guess...

An analysis was made on my profile description, & here are the results...

You are exciting, enthusiastic and a persuasive influencer. Probably interested in the 'BIG PICTURE' programs that have a lot of opportunity. Devote most of your time and energy and products that are people related.

Prefer to have others involved in technical matters. Usually dislike rules and regulations and enjoy great freedom of choice. Use empathy and enthusiasm to accomplish goals.

DO YOU AGREE TO THIS FINDINGS ? WHY?

PLEASE RESPOND.
