Morning Mum,
I just recall some events that I had ytd with some of the younger NSF in SCDF.
It seems that I got too carried away and started to show "superiorism".
3 instances ytd,
1> When Ong asked me about the date for today, I seemed to make him look stupid. I give him the date, coupled with a question. "I thought you were using a handphone just now? Does the (handphone) model comes with the date function?" He replied "yea..." I returned a "oic, sry I am not that knowledgable abt handphone models"
2> Cartelle, the italian dude, had a nice chit-chat in the bus; about shows, and linking to Phua Chu Kang and Simpson Movie's Spider Pig. Also, I learn that he is much more artistic, and how his father is rational, and hence the gap. Till he suddenly blur out that his dad bought a condo unit, of a condominium we passed by and somehow after some questions, in my earnest, it seems that they had assumed I lived in a Condo, or owned one... wtf... why cant they seperate character value with financial value?
3> Lastly, Mao, that 2-tongue snake. He is quite a good talker, but mostly illogical, like the handphone model I asked if it is china made. He replied it is his mum, and he used it because he is afraid that SCDF will be alike NS SAF, he wont be able to use video camera, hence no point to purchase high-end new ones. Yet he holds a video camera. "It doesnt LOOK logical" thats what i told him. So only just then, I realised that he is "just trying to cover up" he is holding an old phone? I dont know, but he sure has pride that is base on valueless valuables...
It also reflected badly on me 2 things I want to avoid "ASS-U-ME"...
1> Mobs are located behind the balcony, but I merely peek and ASSUME that it is not there.
2> After chatting with an OCT and learn abt diff costume colors, I ASSUME the brand new FIRESUIT will be mine...
Mum, I will continue later, I am going to do my Passport first. Bless me Mum
