My Brushes with the Law

Just got news that another friend of mine is going to jail soon. Terrible. Well, couple love with credit card, and he has to pay for someone else's spending habits. Choked up so too much, and touched company's money.

Love is blind. Love makes someone stupid. It blocks logic, and inhibits financial quotient (hey, can I claim credit on that term ? FQ.. hmmm).

Know another friend, who was a young secret society member, and participated in killings before. Detained by ISD and has no criminal record. Now a father, and hardworking man who started his own company and is doing relatively well at the moment.

Those are my closest brush with the law and criminals.

Those and my "near arrest" for "breaking and entering" a public swimming pool. To enjoy the quiet view. Detained at the station for about 5 hours before allowed to leave. And the officer obviously thought I entered to steal money or food from the pathetic canteen.

So little serenity in Singapore that I had to break into a closed pool to enjoy the moonlight and get away from the buzz.

No, I was not raped in jail, and still have not been there. Intends to keep it that way.
