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

Car Into Tree...Police On Scene...


True call over the radio...hehehe...

Not much is happening today...it's been getting really cool in the mornings though...wore a jumper (!) this morning....that is, before someone special came by...

There's a few birthdays, sorted them out...only wish I could sort out that medical report thingy...

OOO...man, just realised, my sis is 30 this week...man...well, she's married now, and she's set with her job and all....*sigh*...I guess life does begin at 30...

I've got to figure out what to do for accommodation...better find out before the weekend...call Uni in the morning...*sigh*...what to do...I'll figure out something...

Missing and thinking of someone...and hope her finger is better...and it wasn't my fault, promise...hehe...

Be safe.
