Who Is The Black Chinaman?

Saving someone's life is like falling in love. The best drug in the world. For days, sometimes weeks afterwards, you walk the streets, making infinite whatever you see. Once, for a few weeks, I couldn't feel the earth - everything I touched became lighter. Horns played in my shoes. Flowers fell from my pockets. You wonder if you've become immortal, as if you've saved your own life as well. God has passed through you. Why deny it, that for a moment there - why deny that for a moment there, God was you? I realised that my training was useful in less than ten percent of the calls, and saving lives was rarer than that. After a while, I grew to understand that my role was less about saving lives than about bearing witness. I was a grief mop. It was enough that I simply turned up. Living and working back in Brunei, after a 14 year absence... Also known as: Brunei, NASA, Bruise-Eye, Bru, Cheesecake, Nick, BruNick, BruMedNick, Two Step etc etc etc

Buya, one week down, a lot more to go (but one less!!!)

I've got myself my first suit, although it's a bit small and has blood stains (!?!?!) on the collar, it's alright...the pants can't fit me, but it's cool, might get a contrasting set later...

Week's been alright, the weather's been bitchy again, and it's going to be like this till sometime next week...bugger...

I'm going to go drown myself now, better than melting away...can't think of what to write, there was soem things happening, but for the life of me, I can't remember...I'll write them down later and update next week...

Buh bye...

(On that note, we que the diabolical laugher) MUHAHAHAHAHA...
