my mind has been way too overactive recently. in the day, my focus easily drifts from tasks at hand, and instead i spend hours thinking about things that really won't make my day any better. at night, when i hit the sack, it no longer feels like sleeping anymore. its more like lying in bed awake, but with my eyes closed. . vivid dreams overwhelm and devour me through the night. and i mean the whole night. when i wake up in the morning, i feel utterly spent and lethargic. my body aches, and my head spins, its like i don't get any rest from sleeping anymore. moreover, i can remember my dreams now. and i mean clearly and accurately. its disturbing enough for me to recall bits and pieces of my morbid dreams, let alone the whole dream. all this culminates in me feeling moody the whole day. this really doesn't help at this stressful period of time with POP coming snd all. arghhhhhh
anyway, speaking of POP, its been postponed to 15 July. because of the International Olympic Committee convention here in sg from 6th-9th July. seems that security for this event is so tight and extensive that there are not enough regulars to do the task. and so NSmen are being mobilised too. well mostly coast guard officers are being mobilised. so from 1-10 July i will be involved in the security of the IOC convention. the thing is, i've been assigned to a permanent night shift group (9pm-9am). which means i will be working only night shifts during this deployment. its terrible..we get only 1 night off for working 2 nights.
grrr. i still don't know my job scope yet. apparently they say PCG is involved in detecting explosives..hmmm. i'll be going for the briefing later to find out. anyway, if u see me in full uniform (complete with beret and firearms) around Raffles City, do entertain me. i'm gonna be so bored.
nabei. if not for this thing i'll be POPing this coming thursday.
