I was thinking about lots of stuff to blog over the past few days but I've been really lazy to blog. So I shall lump them up totally in 1 post. The reason why I am so tired is due to the fact that I am attending a modified advanced ammo technical training (MAATT) course for these 2 weeks. To me, the course is a total waste of time and we go through it for the sake of going through it so that we can be promoted. The "instructors" cannot even be bothered to teach and all we do in class is try to sleep or play games without getting caught. To put it simply, we are doing everything except for studying since in the end, we'll pass the course almost certainly.

Something I wanted to blog about for really long: I hate people who snore when they sleep! To me, people who snore are seriously irritating, especially when they are your duty partners in camp. Snoring is causing discomfort to others without causing any harm to ourselves. The SAF encourages us to have 7 hours of sleep, but how is that possible when you seem to be sleeping next to a generator machine? I think a made a mistake above. Well, I do not actually hate people who snore, I hate the act of snoring because I know it's something natural. So I thought of a couple of solutions. Firstly, the SAF can check if a person snores during body checkup and if he does, he'll become PES S, and all PES S enlistees will be put in the same company for them to snore each other to sleep. This can ensure that the other people who do not snore get their rest in preparation for tough training. As for the PES S company, they can start to understand how snoring affects others and maybe try to cure the snoring by whatever way. Also, people who are PES S should be only doing overnight duty with PES S people. This is to make sure non PES S soldiers can be alert during their duties and not be affected by lack of sleep.

Also, I hate people who walk really slowly. This excludes those who are old or medically unfit to walk fast. In places like MRT stations, common pathways or shopping centres, what reason have you got to walk slowly? Not only do you block the way of people who are rushing for time, you are also forcing others to walk as slow as you which is bloody sickening. Thus, I have planned a wonderful solution again. From now on, people who walk slowly have to walk at the left half of whatever pathway there is. If they walk slowly on the right side, we can complain to the authorities because they are road hogging and they can get a warnhing or fine because of that. This actually helps to improve the economy as the amount of time saved by having people walking faster leads to increased man-hours and thus increase productivity of the nation. besides, the fund collected from fines can go into the community chest. That's killing 2 birds with 1 stone. Fabulous idea!
