{/L plate again

After about 4 months of getting my license, i'm back into "L" plate again! This time round, its for a 60 tonne monster, the oldest and fattest and heaviest sai kang warrior tank. Driving the monster is a totally different feeling as first its a left hand drive, with no steering wheel but a bar for replacement, and moving at 15km/h feels damn fast until you have a look at the speedometer. 5 days to learn and pass the test, 2 more days to go. Lucky we started on wed as by friday most of us wanted to die already! Waking up early in the morning to clean up and check the tank, then check again after lunch, then at night come back check again, knock knock knock, hammer hammer hammer, tighten tighten tighten...
Sat was spent helping out at east coast park for a family day event. Was stationed to give out souvenirs and then meals. Which is where is saw the ugly side of singaporeans, when everybody redeemed their food and we left quite alot, we made an announcement to give away all the rest of the food for free, and ppl all rush to the table and want to take as many things as possible. Some even took away cartonS of new water! (1 still okay la, some one shot take like 3-4 cartons away! ) Some keep coming back for more, some even koped plastic bags! Lols la. Below is an extract
Auntie: You giving out free meals right?
Me: Yep, how many do you want?
Auntie: How many do you have?
Me: 'points to the area which easily have more than 200-300 packs' have quite alot
Auntie: 'ponders and count' then like that arr, i want 10
The best part is when we ran out of vegetarian food, being typical singaporeans they like to choose and will try their luck at getting the better deal, so when they know that vegetarian food is out, instead of taking the normal meal, they want to change for KFC! ( the child's meal ) Child's meal is beside the point but HEY VEGETARIAN CANNOT EAT MEAT CAN EAT KFC! WOAH
Where are all your social graces?... Ugly singaporeans...
