Companionship~

"This court sentences you to 9 months in detention....."
"This court sentences you to 5 months in detention for the first charge, and 5 months in detention for the second charge......"
"This court sentences you to 7 months in detention....."
"This court sentences you a $600 fine.....do you have any problems paying it in full?"

It was a great experience sitting through a court marshal session. It's like going to court only thing that its a scaled down version and the pple sitting"up" there are wearing uniforms and not wigs. My heart skipped when the Court Panel President finished his last sentence. It was like..."this guy is one harsh ass****" for the first 3 sentences to the first 3 accused. Then, when it was our turn...it changed to "thank God For him!!" Relief. Something that started bad(it shouldn't have in the first place) but ended on a good note. Everyone was happy, and i thought Sean did a good job writing out the mitigation plea and did an equally good job by reading it out confidently. Anyway, Sean is one confident guy. I could see relief from Peh's face. I could hear relief from Peh's wife. I myself thank God for the grace he has given to us. The grace he has given to Peh. It was all over. Peh can finally get on with his customary marriage plans and he is soon a father to be. It is so nice to see how loving the couple is....

Thinking to myself, when will i ever reach that stage?(ya noe getting married and stuff) As some of you might noe, i have been telling ya'll that when you reach your twenties, you start to think differently. My goal is to get married before 30. That is something not really unrealistic. Considering that pple out there are getting married when they are 20, even being a father or mother.(Welcome to the REAL world).So counting back, i guess you'll need a few years to noe ya gf well enough to marry her, so let's take that as 4 years. Assuming i wanna get married when im 29(worst case senario liao) that means i'll have to noe her by 25. Well, in courting there will always be ups and downs, so let's say another 2 years to get to noe a realli realli nice girl. That's 23. And that's the worst case senario. We noe the maths:)

Only on Monday i was talking to one of my clerks Ah boi Kwek abt Companionship. Citing the example of the SMU student and the Airforce DXO. i told him, "ta1 men2 ke2 yi3 zhe4 me4 zao3 jie2 hun1, shi4 hen3 xing4 fu2 de4........"
