Another Story

When I was still in Elementary School (aka Primary), we would have these breaks in between lessons, when the first teacher had left and the next one has yet to come. Now, some teachers are very late.

I found myself on the dirty blue floor, by the grey metal teacher's desk and the grey classroom cabinets. A friend, named Alex I think, was sitting next to me, and we were drawing tanks and submarines with pencils and crayons. We completed our masterpieces as best we could, before discussing

"Hey, we should send this to the People's Liberation Army."

"No, Singaporean Army lah, of course!"

LOL all you want, but we were dead serious back then.

We have learnt much since those days of innocent naive-ity. But one thing that I have had to relearn, was how one should always make bold moves in the face of uncertainty and it's part of life to be stupid and ignorant.
